The warranty period for a new car's transmission is three years. Below are detailed introductions about transmissions: 1. Manual Transmission: A manual transmission mainly consists of gears and shafts, achieving speed and torque variation through different gear combinations. 2. Automatic Transmission: An automatic transmission is composed of a torque converter, planetary gears, a hydraulic torque variation system, and a hydraulic control system, achieving speed and torque variation through hydraulic power transmission and gear combinations. The transmission is a crucial component in a vehicle, capable of altering the gear ratio and expanding the driving wheel's torque and speed. With the advancement of modern technology, transmissions have also been upgraded, evolving from manual transmissions to continuously variable transmissions (CVTs), and from non-synchronized to synchronized transmissions, making operation more convenient.

What is ETC?

ETC stands for Electronic Toll Collection in Chinese. It is currently the most advanced toll collection method for roads and bridges in the world. It utilizes dedicated short-range microwave communication between the onboard electronic tag installed on the vehicle's windshield and the microwave antenna in the ETC lane at the toll station. ETC employs dedicated short-range communication between the onboard electronic tag installed on the vehicle's windshield and the microwave antenna in the ETC lane at the toll station. It uses computer networking technology to perform backend settlement processing with banks, thereby achieving the goal of vehicles passing through highway or bridge toll stations without stopping to pay tolls. Fully automated electronic toll collection (ETC) is one of the service functions of the intelligent transportation system, particularly suitable for use in highway or busy bridge and tunnel environments. Currently, there are dedicated ETC toll lanes at highway toll stations. Vehicle owners only need to install a transponder card on the windshield and preload funds. When passing through the toll station, there is no need for manual payment or stopping, as the highway toll will be automatically deducted from the card, enabling automatic toll collection. This system takes less than two seconds per vehicle, and the traffic capacity of ETC lanes is 5 to 10 times that of manual toll lanes. Using a fully automated electronic toll collection system can make highway toll collection paperless and cashless, fundamentally eliminating the loss of toll revenue and solving financial management chaos in highway toll collection. Additionally, implementing a fully automated electronic toll collection system can save on infrastructure and management costs. Documents required to apply for ETC: The vehicle owner's original valid ID card, the original and a copy of the vehicle registration certificate (the page with the most recent annual inspection stamp must be provided). If applying on behalf of someone else, the original valid ID card of the agent is also required. If applying for ETC through major bank branches, a debit or credit card from the corresponding bank must be prepared. Some banks only support ETC binding with credit cards, while others may require freezing a portion of the funds as a security deposit when binding with a debit card. ETC deduction principles: There will be one or more ETC lanes on highways. Through dedicated short-range microwave communication between the onboard electronic tag installed on the vehicle's windshield and the microwave antenna in the ETC lane at the toll station, backend settlement is performed with banks using computer networking technology, achieving the goal of vehicles paying tolls without stopping at road or bridge toll stations. All of this is based on the principle of passing first and deducting fees later. Benefits of installing ETC: Time-saving: Eliminates the hassle of queuing and waiting. Green and eco-friendly: Low-carbon, as vehicles pass through toll stations without stopping, reducing noise and exhaust emissions and minimizing pollution. Reduced wear and tear: Saves costs by reducing the frequency of vehicle starts and stops, lowering wear and fuel consumption. Improved efficiency: Theoretically, ETC lanes can increase vehicle passing efficiency by 2-3 times, making traditional ETC newer, faster, and more high-tech. Compared to license plate payment, ETC technology is more mature and advantageous. More policy support: The State Council clearly stated in the "13th Five-Year Plan for the Development of a Modern Comprehensive Transportation System" that "by 2020, the interoperability of transportation smart cards in key urban clusters will be basically achieved, and the proportion of vehicles equipped with ETC will significantly increase." It also set a target in the "13th Five-Year" comprehensive transportation development indicators: "By 2020, the ETC usage rate for road passenger vehicles will reach 50%." More future possibilities: In addition to continuously improving the convenience of ETC installation and usage and increasing the ETC adoption rate for passenger vehicles, efforts will be made to promote ETC usage for trucks in the future. There will also be exploration of deep integration between the ETC system and smart transportation development directions such as vehicle-to-vehicle communication and vehicle-to-infrastructure coordination, providing comprehensive travel services for vehicle owners. This means more application scenarios will support ETC applications. ETC usage precautions: The ETC transaction sensing range is 8 meters. When encountering a stationary vehicle ahead, maintain a distance of more than 10 meters to prevent automatic sensing and payment for the vehicle ahead, in case the vehicle ahead has a faulty ETC device or no ETC device at all. The recognized speed for ETC lane passage is 20 km/h. If the speed is too fast, the vehicle's device information cannot be read, leading to failed deductions. Unauthorized removal or movement of the OBU device, or detachment or loosening of the ETC electronic tag, will render the electronic tag invalid. It can be taken to the bank where the ETC card was issued or the highway service office for inspection. If the detachment or loosening is not due to human factors, reactivation is sufficient. When using a debit card bound to ETC, insufficient balance will also cause deduction failures. Follow the guidance of on-site staff to use the manual MTC lane and pass by paying with cash or swiping a card. Excessive thickness of the car windshield may cause poor sensing. This is especially important for vehicles that have had their windshields replaced after accidents or for those who have modified their windshields.

Can I make a U-turn when the navigation says to?

You cannot rely entirely on navigation; you should drive safely according to the actual road conditions. Here are the relevant details: 1. Updates needed: Navigation maps require regular updates. If not updated in time, some roads may not be included in the navigation map, or there may be intersections marked with "No U-turn" or "No left turn" signs that the navigation hasn't updated. Making a U-turn at such locations may result in a traffic violation. 2. Article 39: Traffic management departments of public security authorities can implement measures such as guidance, traffic restrictions, or prohibitions for motor vehicles, non-motor vehicles, and pedestrians based on specific road and traffic conditions. In cases of large-scale public events or extensive construction, traffic restriction measures or decisions directly affecting public road traffic activities should be announced to the public in advance.

What is the normal fuel consumption for an SUV?

In most cases, for general household SUVs, the displacement is mostly in the range of 1.6 to 2.0 liters. Automatic transmissions are more common, so for this class, the actual fuel consumption is around 10 liters per 100 kilometers. On highways or long-distance trips, it might be around 7 to 8 liters, while in urban commuting with traffic congestion, it generally may exceed 10 liters. This is a relatively conventional fuel consumption scenario. Introduction: "Fuel consumption" refers to the average fuel consumption of a vehicle. It is the most important performance metric in vehicle usage, especially as China is implementing a fuel tax, making the fuel consumption parameter particularly significant. Calculation Method: The theoretical bench fuel consumption test involves mounting the engine on a bench, controlling the ambient temperature, blowing air from an electric fan in front, and applying a water load at the back to simulate the driving conditions of the vehicle.

What are the benefits of not applying window film to a car?

There are no benefits to not applying window film to a car. Window film provides heat insulation: The car front windshield films available on the market are mainly of two types: heat-absorbing film and reflective film. Heat-absorbing film uses heat-absorbing adhesive coated on the surface of transparent polyester film to absorb infrared rays, thereby achieving heat absorption and insulation. However, this type of film has a drawback: its ability to absorb infrared rays is limited, so when it reaches saturation, the infrared rays will penetrate the glass and dissipate. Reflective film works by reflecting infrared rays through a special structure to achieve heat insulation. UV protection: Medium and long waves of ultraviolet rays can penetrate glass. Applying window film can effectively block UV rays, preventing skin aging and delaying skin aging.
