Car maintenance technology is the method of maintaining a car using production tools according to certain technical requirements.

I've bought several cars, and the number of free maintenance services that come with a new car usually ranges from 2 to 4 times, depending on the brand and promotional activities. For example, Japanese cars might offer 2 times, German cars 3 times, and luxury cars can go up to 4 or 5 times. The free services include basic maintenance like oil and filter changes, which can save a lot on maintenance costs. When buying a car, it's good to negotiate with the salesperson to try to get an extra service, especially during holiday promotions when it's easier to reach an agreement. The free maintenance services come with time and mileage limits, typically to be used within one year or 10,000 kilometers. Make sure to confirm the details before signing the contract to avoid disputes later. Regular maintenance can extend the life of your car, saving money and giving you peace of mind.

What to Do When Car Tire Pressure is Low?

Solutions for low car tire pressure: If you have an onboard air pump, you can first inflate the tire a little and then slowly drive to a nearby repair shop for further handling; if the air leakage is severe, it is recommended to replace the spare tire to avoid continued driving that may cause wheel rim deformation. Maintaining high-speed driving for a long time may even lead to a tire blowout, threatening driving safety. During normal driving, pay attention to the friction sound between the tires and the ground, especially the cushioning force when driving over uneven road surfaces, and whether the acceleration during refueling has changed compared to usual. These all require accumulated experience over time.

What does rnds mean in automatic transmission?

Automatic transmission rnds represents the various gears of a car. R stands for reverse gear, N is neutral, D is drive gear, and S is sport mode. When reversing, engage the R gear. N gear is neutral and can be used when waiting at traffic lights or during short stops. D gear is the drive gear; once engaged, the car can move forward. S gear activates sport mode, which enhances the car's power and provides a more dynamic driving experience. In most automatic transmission modes, shifting gears is usually unnecessary during acceleration or deceleration, and driving in D gear throughout daily commutes is sufficient. In contrast, manual transmissions require constant gear shifting to match acceleration and deceleration. This is because automatic transmissions can automatically adjust the matching between the transmission and the engine, whereas manual transmissions can harm the engine if not properly shifted.

What does the ABS light on the car dashboard indicate?

When the ABS light on the car dashboard is illuminated, it indicates a malfunction in the vehicle's Anti-lock Braking System. During the vehicle's power-on or ignition process, the system undergoes a self-check procedure, during which the ABS light will turn on. Once the check is completed, the ABS light should turn off. If the ABS light remains illuminated, the vehicle can still be braked using conventional methods, but this indicates a sensor malfunction, and it is advisable to visit a nearby repair shop for professional assistance. The ABS system is designed to enhance braking efficiency, reduce braking time and distance, prevent skidding, and ensure driving stability by maintaining optimal tire-to-road traction.
