Touching the line during reverse parking results in a 100-point deduction, making the test unsuccessful. Other actions that lead to a 100-point deduction include the vehicle body crossing the line, failing to park properly, stopping midway, not following the prescribed route or sequence, and exceeding the time limit. The total score for both subjects is 100 points, with evaluation criteria set for failure, 20-point deduction, 10-point deduction, and 5-point deduction. The rules for the Subject 2 driving test state that stopping midway, rolling back, or not following voice prompts result in failure. Wheel or body touching the line also leads to test failure. Many learners encounter the issue of touching the line during Subject 2 training, with "touching the line" being the most common reason for failure. The main cause of this issue is learners not mastering the correct timing for steering. Besides missing the right moment to steer, another reason could be the steering speed not matching the vehicle's speed. Subject 2 point deduction standards: Not wearing a seatbelt: 100-point deduction. Starting the engine without the gear in neutral: 100-point deduction. Not using turn signals (including starting, lane changing, overtaking, turning, and parking); using turn signals for less than three seconds (this is easily overlooked!); forgetting to turn off turn signals or incorrect use: 10-point deduction. Stalling once: 10-point deduction. Reverse parking: Not following the prescribed route sequence: 100-point deduction. Vehicle body crossing the line: 100-point deduction. Failing to park properly: 100-point deduction. Before reversing, not having both front wheels pass the control line: 100-point deduction. Exceeding 210 seconds to complete the task: 100-point deduction. Stopping for more than 2 seconds midway: 5-point deduction each time. Slope parking and starting: After stopping, if the front bumper is not aligned with the pole line and exceeds 50 cm front or back: 100-point deduction. After stopping, if the front bumper is not aligned with the pole line but does not exceed 50 cm front or back: 10-point deduction. After stopping, exceeding 30 seconds to start: 100-point deduction. Wheels touching the road edge line while driving: 100-point deduction. Rolling back more than 30 cm when starting: 100-point deduction. After stopping, if the vehicle body is more than 50 cm from the road edge line: 100-point deduction. Not tightening the parking brake after stopping: 10-point deduction each time. After stopping, if the vehicle body is more than 30 cm but not exceeding 50 cm from the road edge line: 10-point deduction each time. Rolling back more than 10 cm but less than 30 cm when starting: 5-point deduction each time. Parallel parking: After parking, if the vehicle body crosses the line: 100-point deduction. Not using or incorrectly using turn signals when parking: 10-point deduction. Exceeding 90 seconds to complete the task: 100-point deduction. Touching the parking space edge line with the vehicle body while driving: 10-point deduction each time. Wheels touching the lane edge line while driving: 10-point deduction each time. Stopping for more than 2 seconds midway: 5-point deduction each time. Right-angle turning: Wheels touching the road edge line: 100-point deduction. Not using or incorrectly using turn signals when turning, or not turning off turn signals after turning: 10-point deduction. Stopping for more than 2 seconds midway: 5-point deduction each time. Curve driving: Wheels touching the road edge line: 100-point deduction. Stopping for more than 2 seconds midway: 100-point deduction. Not driving in second gear or higher: 5-point deduction.

What Does the Strobe Light on an Audi Mean?

Audi cars equipped with strobe lights are mostly non-standard police vehicles in China. Audi is a German automobile manufacturer that produces a wide range of cars and SUVs, many of which have been locally produced in China. The domestically produced Audi models include the A4, A6L, Q2L, Q3, Q5L, A3, and others. If a vehicle behind flashes its strobe light at the vehicle in front, it is usually a signal to alert the front vehicle to yield for overtaking. If the rear vehicle continues to flash its strobe light while following, it may indicate an issue with the front vehicle. In such cases, multiple flashes are often necessary to make the front driver aware that it is not just an overtaking signal. Strobe lights come in various designs: some are fog light-style and can replace the vehicle's fog lights; some are embedded and installed by drilling holes into the headlights, fog lights, or taillights; some are suction-cup-mounted on the windshield; others are magnetic and attach to the roof, known as ceiling-mounted strobe lights. There are also strobe lights installed on the grille or bumper, referred to as grille strobe lights or bumper lights, which offer both decorative appeal and strong warning visibility.

How to Check the Oil Dipstick on a Nissan?

Nissan's method for checking the oil dipstick: When pulling the dipstick out of the engine, there are two circles at the lower end of the dipstick, which represent the upper and lower limits of the oil level. Simply ensure that the detected oil level is between these two marks. In automobiles, the dipstick is a commonly used measuring tool to check the lubricant level. Due to the curved path of the dipstick insertion hole, the dipstick must be able to deform upon insertion and rebound to its original shape when pulled out. Nissan Motor Company is a corporation whose business covers automobile manufacturing, shipbuilding, and aerospace technology. Its automotive products are categorized into utility vehicles (such as trucks, minivans, and four-wheel-drive vehicles), luxury cars, and standard sedans. Taking the Bluebird as an example, it is a model under Dongfeng Nissan. In terms of body dimensions, this car measures 4683mm in length, 1780mm in width, and 1465mm in height. Regarding power, the Bluebird is equipped with an upgraded 1.6L naturally aspirated engine, delivering a maximum power of 93kW and a maximum torque of 154Nm.

What Causes the Smell of Burning While Driving?

Reasons for smelling a burning odor while driving include abnormal brake pad operation, incomplete clutch disengagement, belt slippage, and severe friction of the clutch disc. Below are detailed explanations for the causes of the burning smell while driving: Abnormal brake pad operation: Corrosion of the brake caliper can cause incomplete separation during operation, leading to prolonged friction between the brake pads and the brake disc. This generates heat and produces a plastic burning smell. Incomplete clutch disengagement: Abnormal wear between the clutch pressure plate and the flywheel can cause the pressure plate to overheat and emit a burning odor. In later stages of clutch use, excessive wear can soften the pressure plate springs, preventing the friction disc and flywheel from properly transmitting power, which can also result in friction disc overheating and a burning smell. Belt slippage: A loose or slipping belt in the engine compartment, or engine oil burning, can also produce a burning smell. If this occurs, immediate inspection and repair are necessary. Severe friction of the clutch disc: Minor cases may still allow continued use, but severe cases can lead to reduced power transmission. Generally, a brief burning smell is not a major issue, but if the smell persists, the clutch disc and pressure plate may need replacement.

What are the causes of brake noise?

Brake noise can be caused by the following reasons: 1. Metal hard spots on brake pads: If there are tiny metal particles on the brake pads, they will produce a sharp noise when braking. You can try slamming the brakes a few times or grinding and replacing the brake pads. 2. Severe wear on brake discs: After prolonged use, deep grooves will form on the brake discs where the brake pads make contact, causing noise when braking. If the grooves are not deep, they can be resolved by grinding the edges of the brake pads. If the grooves are deep, the brake discs must be replaced. 3. Foreign objects: Foreign objects can cause misalignment of the contact surfaces, leading to noise.
