Here is an introduction to the working principles of the engine and transmission: 1. Transmission working principle: By shifting the gear lever, the active gears on the intermediate shaft are switched, and the combination of gears of different sizes is connected to the power output shaft, thereby changing the torque and speed of the driving wheels. 2. Engine working principle: The working principles of two-stroke and four-stroke engines differ, but most car engines are four-stroke, whose working process involves converting internal energy into mechanical energy. Note: The working cycle of a four-stroke gasoline engine consists of four piston strokes, namely the intake stroke, compression stroke, power stroke, and exhaust stroke.

What does 'water car' mean?

Water car refers to smuggled vehicles or cars without proper documentation. Smuggled cars are 'dirty' vehicles stolen from abroad. There are two types of smuggling: whole vehicle smuggling and disassembled vehicle smuggling. Whole smuggled vehicles maintain their original appearance, while disassembled smuggled vehicles are taken apart piece by piece and smuggled as components. Smuggled cars lack proper licenses, invoices, or documentation. If caught, traffic police will investigate the vehicle's origin and impound it. Providing counterfeit license plates is part of the smuggled car service - buyers receive a complete set of fake materials upon pickup, including license plates, vehicle registration certificates, insurance policies, annual inspection stickers, and modified engine/chassis numbers.

What does 'lim' mean in English inside the car?

lim is the speed limit function button. When this button is pressed while the vehicle is stationary, the speed limit function is activated, and the maximum speed can only reach the set limit speed. Even if the accelerator is pressed further, the speed will not increase. More information about lim is as follows: 1. If the vehicle speed exceeds the set speed limit, the system will issue a warning. When reaching or exceeding the set speed limit under conditions such as downhill driving, the active braking mode will not be activated. 2. If a speed limit lower than the current speed is set during driving, the vehicle will coast until the speed is below the limit. Since the system allows exceeding the speed limit under certain special circumstances, the driver can exceed the speed limit as needed, and in this case, the system will not issue an audible warning.

How to Manually Reset the Airbag Warning Light?

When the airbag warning light comes on, the first thing to do is to send the vehicle to a 4S shop for inspection and repair as soon as possible. After confirming there are no issues, the staff will use a specialized fault decoder to reset the airbag warning light, as manual reset is not possible. The airbag system is a passive safety protection system that, when used in conjunction with seat belts, provides effective collision protection for occupants. There are many reasons why the airbag warning light may illuminate, such as a faulty steering wheel clock spring, loose or poor contact of the airbag sensor, airbag body failure, or airbag ECU circuit issues. These require the use of a diagnostic tool to read fault codes and systematically troubleshoot. After identifying the fault point, repairs or replacements should be carried out, and then the airbag warning light on the dashboard can be reset.
