Generally, a new car comes with two keys. These two keys are the master key and the spare key. For some car models, the master key and spare key may have different designs, while others may have identical ones. Here is some relevant information about the two keys: 1. Functions of the two keys: Typically, the spare key only has basic functions (such as trunk unlocking, locking, unlocking, and vehicle locating). If the master key is a standard key, the spare key is usually the same. 2. Purpose of the two keys: Both the master key and spare key can be used to lock and unlock the vehicle. If one key is lost, the other can still be used to start the car. Additionally, both keys usually come with a mechanical key, which is a traditional metal key. When the remote key battery dies, simply remove the mechanical key from the master or spare key and insert it into the car door's mechanical lock to unlock the vehicle.

Which country is the Alfa Romeo brand from?

Alfa Romeo is a renowned Italian manufacturer of passenger cars and sports cars, established in 1910 and headquartered in Milan. The company was originally named ALFA (Anonima Lombarda Fabbrica Automobili), with its origins tracing back to a car company founded by Alexandre Darracq in Naples in 1906, which later moved to Milan. Its main models include Giulia, Stelvio, ALFA-4C, Tonale, Giulietta, MiTo, Gloria, Disco-Volante, etc. The red cross on the Alfa Romeo logo is part of the coat of arms of Milan, commemorating the Crusader knights of ancient times. The man-eating dragon-snake (biscione) pattern comes from the emblem of a local ancient noble family (the Visconti family), symbolizing the legend of the ancestors of the medieval Milanese lord Duke Visconti repelling the "dragon-snake" that brought suffering to the city's people. The outer circle has a dark blue background with the word Alfa-Romeo placed on it, representing the brand name. The important milestones in Alfa Romeo's development are as follows: 1910: Alfa company was founded. 1924: Alfa Romeo's P2 model won the championship at the first World Racing Championship. 1954: Alfa Giulietta debuted at the Turin Motor Show. November 1986: Alfa Romeo was finally sold to the Fiat Group. 2017: Alfa Romeo entered the Chinese market.

Is it a traffic violation to proceed through a continuously flashing yellow warning signal light?

Proceeding through a continuously flashing yellow warning signal light is not considered a traffic violation. Vehicles may pass through a continuously flashing yellow warning light: According to regulations, a continuously flashing yellow warning signal light indicates that vehicles and pedestrians should proceed with caution after confirming safety. Rules for yellow light situations: When a yellow traffic light appears at an intersection, vehicles and pedestrians are generally not permitted to proceed. However, vehicles that have already crossed the stop line and pedestrians who have entered the crosswalk may continue moving. Vehicles that haven't crossed the stop line and pedestrians who haven't entered the crosswalk must stop.

Why Can't the Car Key Turn or Start the Engine?

If the car won't start and the key won't turn, it could be due to fuel or electrical system issues. First, check if the fuel level is insufficient. Without gasoline as the power source, the car naturally won't start. If the issue is caused by running out of fuel, you can request fuel assistance or have the car towed to a gas station. If the fuel level is sufficient, check for problems such as a blown fuse, open circuit in the high-voltage coil, open circuit in the low-voltage circuit, detached central ignition wire, leaking distributor rotor, or damaged spark plugs. Below are more reasons why a car might not start: 1. Incorrect Gear Position: An incorrect gear position can also prevent the car from starting. Generally, the correct gear positions for starting an automatic transmission car are 'P' or 'N'. If the driver accidentally leaves the gear in 'R' or another position, not only will the car fail to start, but it could also pose a safety hazard. 2. Steering Wheel Lock: For vehicle security, if the steering wheel is turned left or right when the car is turned off, or if the wheels are not straight when parked, the steering wheel's self-locking feature may activate. Even if you insert the key and try to turn it forcefully, it won't budge. This is the vehicle's anti-theft system detecting a potential theft risk, hence locking the steering wheel to prevent theft. 3. Steering Wheel Unlock: Insert the key, press the brake, and then turn the steering wheel left and right. Although the steering wheel is locked, it can still be turned slightly. While turning the steering wheel, turn the key to complete the steering wheel unlocking process.

What does engine piston stroke mean?

Engine piston stroke refers to the distance the piston travels between the two dead centers (i.e., top dead center and bottom dead center), also known as the stroke, which is one of the important parameters of an engine. Piston stroke size: The piston stroke is equal to the rotational diameter length of the crankshaft connecting rod section. It is generally represented by 's', and for one piston stroke, the crankshaft rotates 180 degrees. The piston stroke not only increases the overall height of the engine but also is not conducive to increasing the engine's speed. Piston stroke process: For a compressor, one cycle is completed every two piston strokes. Each cycle includes four processes: expansion, intake, compression, and exhaust, requiring the crankshaft to rotate two turns, i.e., 720 degrees.

Is It Necessary to Do Soundproofing for Car Doors?

This depends on the specific situation. Soundproofing the four doors is relatively effective in shielding mid-frequency noise. However, it's important to note that reducing mid-frequency noise does not significantly lower the overall noise level, as high-frequency and low-frequency noises still remain. It may just change the perceived direction of the noise source, improving comfort to some extent. Relevant information is as follows: 1. Soundproofing and comfort performance: For older cars with significant noise, soundproofing the four doors noticeably improves noise reduction and comfort. 2. Noise: For newer cars with less severe noise, soundproofing the four doors shows no obvious difference, as other noises such as engine noise, tire noise, and chassis noise still persist.

What is the 0-100 km/h acceleration time for the Atenza?

According to official data, the Atenza comes with two engine displacements: 2.5T and 2.0T. The 2.5T model achieves a 0-100 km/h acceleration time of 8.6 seconds, while the 2.0T model takes 9.3 seconds. Factors influencing a vehicle's 0-100 km/h acceleration time include: Torque: Torque, in simple terms, represents the force available. The greater the torque, the stronger the force pushing the vehicle, resulting in faster acceleration. For comparison, the Superb in the same segment has a maximum torque of 250 Nm and a 0-100 km/h time of 8.7 seconds. The Atenza 2.5T delivers 252 Nm of torque and accelerates from 0-100 km/h in 8.6 seconds. Transmission efficiency: The transmission acts as the medium for power delivery, inevitably involving power loss. Higher transmission efficiency leads to better acceleration performance. Generally, transmission efficiency ranks as follows: manual transmission > dry dual-clutch transmission > wet dual-clutch transmission > AT transmission > CVT transmission. The Atenza is equipped with a 6-speed automatic transmission. Power-to-weight ratio: The relationship between horsepower and vehicle weight is known as the power-to-weight ratio (measured in Hp/T). A higher power-to-weight ratio results in faster acceleration. For example, the Superb has a power-to-weight ratio of 105 Hp/T and a 0-100 km/h time of 8.7 seconds. The Atenza 2.5T boasts a power-to-weight ratio of 124 Hp/T, achieving 0-100 km/h in 8.6 seconds.
