Generally, the drive shaft does not require additional lubrication. There is a dust cover on the outside of the drive shaft, which is prone to damage after high mileage. Once damaged, the oil inside will leak out, so it should be replaced promptly. Usually, new covers are lubricated when installed. Function of the automotive cross shaft: The automotive cross shaft is used to transmit power at varying angles, serving as the 'joint' component in the universal drive system of a vehicle's drivetrain, where changes in the direction of the drive axis are needed. Reducing wear: There is rapid relative sliding between the piston and cylinder, as well as between the main shaft and bearing bush. To prevent excessive wear on the parts, an oil film must be established between the two sliding surfaces. A sufficiently thick oil film separates the surfaces of the relatively sliding parts, thereby reducing wear.

Where is the Yaris water temperature indicator light?

The Yaris water temperature indicator light is located on the instrument panel, resembling a thermometer-shaped symbol. This indicator is used to display the temperature of the engine coolant. The water temperature gauge shows the coolant temperature, which also indicates the engine's temperature. Coolant serves to lower the engine's temperature, so if the water temperature is too high, the engine cannot operate properly. Conversely, excessively low water temperature is a significant factor contributing to higher fuel consumption. The Yaris is a Toyota model with body dimensions of 4115mm in length, 1700mm in width, and 1485mm in height, with a wheelbase of 1462mm. The Yaris doesn't offer many comfort-enhancing features; all variants feature manually adjustable seat positions. The XuanDong version comes with fabric seats that provide strong sporty support and good body wrapping, though the seats aren't particularly soft, which may cause discomfort during long rides.

What is the appropriate tire pressure for BMW?

The normal tire pressure for BMW is generally suitable around 2.3-2.5. Below is a partial introduction regarding BMW tire pressure: 1. Low tire pressure: The hazards of low tire pressure include increased friction coefficient with the road surface, leading to higher fuel consumption; causing the steering wheel to feel heavy and prone to deviation, among other factors detrimental to driving safety; increasing the movement of various parts of the tire, leading to abnormal heating due to excessive rolling; reducing the functionality of the cords and rubber, potentially causing delamination or cord breakage, and excessive friction with the rim, resulting in damage to the tire bead area and abnormal wear. 2. Measures: Regularly check tire pressure, as it is a crucial factor affecting tire lifespan. Avoid overinflation or underinflation; inflate according to the vehicle's indicated tire pressure. In hot summers, to prevent tire blowouts, it is advisable to reduce tire pressure. In winter, tire pressure can be appropriately increased, as the reduced contact area between the tire and the road surface lowers friction, making driving more fuel-efficient.

How to Solve the Diesel Smell from Diesel Heater?

The solution to the diesel smell from a diesel heater is: place activated charcoal near the source of the diesel smell and let it absorb the odor. Generally, the diesel smell can be mostly eliminated within 1 to 2 days. The diesel parking heater is a vehicle heating device, typically used for warming the cab of trucks, and can be used both while driving and parked. Nowadays, during winter traffic jams or when sleeping in the car at night, keeping the engine running for warmth is impractical, so most drivers install diesel heaters. When using a diesel heater for overnight stays, remember to leave a small gap in the window. Carbon monoxide is not only emitted from the exhaust pipe but can sometimes enter the cab along with the warm air. Therefore, when using a diesel heater, always remember to leave a gap in the window to maintain air circulation between the inside and outside, preventing carbon monoxide poisoning due to excessive buildup.

What is the reason why the remote key cannot open the trunk?

The reason the remote key cannot open the trunk is insufficient power of the remote, resulting in a weak signal that the receiver cannot detect. The basic components of a remote key consist of the following two points: 1. Transmitter: Composed of a transmission switch, transmission antenna, integrated circuit, etc., it contains an identification code storage circuit and an amplitude modulation circuit, with a button-type lithium battery installed on the opposite side of the circuit. The transmission frequency uses radio waves, and pressing the transmission switch button once sends a signal. 2. Receiver: After the transmitter sends the identification code using shortwave modulation, it is received by the car's shortwave antenna and enters the shortwave high-frequency amplification processor of the receiver's electronic control unit via a distributor for demodulation, where it is compared with the demodulator's identification code.

What is the Principle of Honda Hybrid?

Honda's hybrid principle can be explained as having an additional engine for charging, so in form, it is a range-extended electric vehicle, except that its engine has an additional mode where it can directly connect to the drive shaft when the speed reaches over 70 km/h. Besides fuel efficiency, hybrid vehicles also enhance driving quality, especially in urban traffic congestion, providing more linear and smoother output, as well as more natural and comfortable start-stop states during following. Honda hybrid models include the Honda Civic, Odyssey Hybrid, and Lingpai Hybrid, among others. Taking the Civic as an example, its body dimensions are 4649mm in length, 1800mm in width, and 1416mm in height, with a wheelbase of 2700mm. In terms of appearance, the Civic is stylish and modern, with smooth body lines, and the hatchback design has undergone significant changes compared to the older model.
