You can drive approximately 500 kilometers after the vehicle maintenance light comes on. The maintenance tasks include: 1. Checking whether the tire pressure is normal and whether there is uneven wear, bulging, or damage on the tires; 2. Inspecting the vehicle chassis, including the brake pads, brake discs, connecting rods, ball joints, and CV joints for any scratches; 3. Replacing the engine oil and oil filter, cleaning the air filter, and checking whether the generator belt and wiper blades are damaged; 4. Checking whether the levels of various fluids are normal; 5. Inspecting whether all switches and lights are functioning properly. Maintenance precautions include: 1. Making an appointment in advance; 2. Recording any faults or questions encountered while driving and informing the staff during the maintenance registration.

What are the reasons for mistaking the accelerator for the brake?

The reasons for mistaking the accelerator for the brake: driving an unfamiliar car model; poor driving habits, panicking in emergencies; incorrect gear shifting during temporary parking. The following is an extended introduction: 1. Driving an unfamiliar car model: Suggestion: For personal safety, whether you plan to drive a manual or automatic transmission car, you must practice until you are proficient. If you are not familiar with it, do not drive on the road easily. 2. Poor driving habits, panicking in emergencies: 3. Incorrect gear shifting during temporary parking: Because when the transmission of a manual-automatic vehicle is in manual mode, shifting gears requires manual operation. When driving downhill in an underground garage in manual mode with gear 1, even if you mistakenly step on the brake, the engine will be protected when the RPM reaches the limit, and the speed will not be too fast. However, if you use automatic mode, the speed will continue to increase.

What does Subject 4 test?

Subject 4 of the driving test mainly includes the requirements for safe and civilized driving operations, knowledge of safe driving under adverse weather and complex road conditions, emergency handling methods for situations such as tire blowouts, and knowledge of post-accident procedures. Subject 4 is also known as the theoretical test for drivers, assessing "driving ethics." Below is an extended introduction: 1. Question types for Subject 4: The test questions are drawn proportionally from a question bank (currently 1,240 questions for small vehicles and 1,715 for large vehicles), with 50 questions in total—22 true/false, 23 single-choice, and 5 multiple-choice. The questions are primarily presented in the form of case studies, images, animations, etc. The total score is 100, with each question worth 2 points. A passing score is 90, and the test duration is 45 minutes. 2. Subject 4 test rules: If you answer 6 questions incorrectly (12 points), the test will be terminated. Failing Subject 4 does not require retaking previously passed subjects; you can schedule a retest yourself without additional fees. Currently, there are no limits on retaking Subject 4, meaning you can retake it indefinitely. However, the validity period of the driving skill test permit is only three years, so technically, you can retake it unlimited times within the validity period.

What is the X-TRAIL?

X-TRAIL is a compact SUV under the Nissan brand, known as "Qijun" in Chinese. Here is some relevant information: 1. Introduction to Qijun: The Nissan X-TRAIL, translated as Qijun in Chinese, was launched in Japan at the end of 2000, directly competing with rivals like the Toyota RAV4 and Honda CR-V. 2. Qijun Configuration: The Qijun is equipped with an intelligent All-Mode 4WD system, allowing drivers to freely choose between two-wheel drive, automatic, or locked four-wheel drive modes to handle various road conditions. 3. Qijun Modes: The two-wheel drive mode effectively maintains low fuel consumption during daily driving; in automatic mode, the system intelligently distributes torque between the front and rear wheels from 100:0 to 50:50 based on road conditions, delivering optimal driving performance on all types of surfaces.

What is the ground clearance of the 2021 Axela?

The minimum ground clearance of the 2021 Axela is 150 millimeters. The minimum ground clearance of the 2021 Axela refers to the distance between the lowest point (excluding the wheels) and the supporting plane, which indicates the vehicle's ability to pass over obstacles such as rocks and tree stumps without collision. If the ground clearance of the 2021 Axela is higher, its off-road capability improves. However, if the ground clearance is too high, the stability during high-speed driving may decrease. The Axela was first launched in Japan in 2003 and has now reached its fourth generation, codenamed BP, which was released in September 2019. The dimensions of the 2021 Axela are 4662 mm in length, 1797 mm in width, and 1445 mm in height, with a wheelbase of 2726 mm. Generally, the ground clearance of sedans ranges between 110 mm and 150 mm, while SUVs have a ground clearance between 200 mm and 250 mm. However, the ground clearance of the 2021 Axela is not static; it depends on the load condition. Therefore, changes in the vehicle's load should be considered when evaluating ground clearance. When selecting a vehicle, ground clearance can be one of the reference factors. The choice should depend on the vehicle's intended use and the road conditions. For urban areas with well-paved roads, a vehicle with lower ground clearance may offer better stability and comfort. For long-distance travel or driving in areas with poor road conditions, a higher ground clearance is advisable to enhance off-road performance and avoid damage to the chassis.

Does No-Rinse Car Wash Solution Damage the Car?

No-rinse car wash solutions do not harm the car paint. Here is an introduction to car paint-related content: 1. Spray Paint: White spray paint is designed to repair scratches on cars, but it definitely differs from the effect of baked paint. 2. Adhesion: The adhesion of spray paint is much worse than that of baked paint, and it may start peeling off after about a year. The difference in paint finish not only has a certain color deviation from the original factory paint but also lacks the gloss of baked paint. Therefore, if you have high requirements for the paint finish, try to avoid using spray paint. Here is additional information about scratches: 1. Scratches: During daily use, it is unavoidable for the car paint to be scratched by hard objects, such as zippers on a passerby's backpack or small stones kicked up while driving, leaving slight marks on the paint. 2. Coating Treatment: Minor scratches are the most common on the car body but do not affect its overall appearance. In such cases, they can generally be ignored. For perfectionists, you can visit a car beauty shop for treatments like coating to restore some of the minor scratches on the car paint.

What Causes Steering Wheel Vibration at High Speeds?

Steering wheel vibration at high speeds is mostly caused by issues with the tire dynamic balance. A car wheel is an assembly consisting of a tire and a rim, but due to manufacturing factors, the mass distribution of this assembly is not uniform. This leads to dynamic imbalance when the wheel rotates at high speeds, causing the driver to experience noticeable steering wheel vibration. Solutions for steering wheel vibration at high speeds: To prevent or eliminate this phenomenon, the most effective method is to add counterweights to the wheel while it is in motion, correcting the balance at various edges. This process is called dynamic balancing. There are many reasons for wheel dynamic imbalance, including detachment of balancing lead weights, tire repairs, excessive rim repairs, or a large amount of mud on the inner side of the rim. Apart from tire-related issues, other possible causes include faulty shock absorbers, frame deformation, excessive backlash in the main and driven gears of the final drive, etc. It is recommended that car owners regularly perform dynamic balance checks on their wheels. This not only extends tire life but also improves driving stability, preventing accidents caused by loss of control due to tire wobbling or bouncing at high speeds.
