Manual transmission fluid is generally referred to as gear oil. Under normal driving conditions, manual transmission gear oil should typically be replaced every 2 years or 60,000 kilometers. Hazards of not changing transmission fluid: Transmission fluid working under high-speed and high-temperature conditions for extended periods can deteriorate and evaporate, thereby exacerbating the wear of mechanical components and, in severe cases, damaging internal transmission parts. Long-term failure to replace transmission fluid may result in the car struggling to start when cold. Daily maintenance of manual transmission: After driving a certain distance, check for any leaks in the transmission; ensure the transmission has sufficient oil; replace the transmission fluid promptly.

Can I drive on the highway without ETC?

It is possible to drive on the highway without ETC. Vehicles without ETC installed can still use the traditional method of taking a toll card at the entrance toll station and stopping to pay at the exit toll station. The lane design includes ETC-dedicated lanes, while also retaining a few manual toll lanes to serve vehicles without ETC. ETC is an electronic toll collection system that allows vehicles to pass through toll stations without stopping. It uses microwave short-range communication between the vehicle's electronic tag installed on the windshield and the microwave antenna in the ETC lane at the toll station. This system connects with the bank's backend settlement via computer networking technology, enabling automatic toll payment without stopping.

How to Reset the Tire Pressure Light on a Passat?

Adjust the tire pressure to the standard value, then proceed with the tire pressure system setup. The specific setup method is as follows: Turn on the ignition, press and hold the set button for more than 2 seconds until the instrument panel emits a "ding" prompt sound. Confirm that the new parameters are stored, and the warning light will turn off. Here is some related information: 1. Tire pressure monitoring automatically checks the tire pressure in real-time while driving and alerts the driver to leaks or low pressure to ensure driving safety. There are two common types: direct and indirect. 2. A direct tire pressure monitoring system has pressure sensors and transmitters installed on each wheel. If any tire's pressure falls 25% below the recommended cold tire pressure in the driver's manual, it alerts the driver. The warning signal is precise, and if a tire is punctured, causing rapid pressure loss, the direct system provides an immediate alert. 3. An indirect tire pressure monitoring system is much cheaper than the direct type. It uses the speed sensors in the car's ABS braking system to compare the rotation counts of the four tires. If one tire has lower pressure, its rotation count will differ from the others. By utilizing the same sensors and signals as the ABS system and adjusting the software in the car's computer, the system can warn the driver if one tire's pressure is lower than the other three.

Can a car without license plates drive on the highway?

A car without license plates cannot drive on the highway, but it can apply for temporary license plates to do so. In addition to applying for temporary license plates at the traditional vehicle management office, car owners can also go to any traffic branch or team vehicle management station to apply for temporary license plates for their vehicles. When applying for temporary license plates, the car owner needs to provide some documents to the traffic management department. Car license plates are panels hung on the front and rear of the vehicle, which have a unified format and style as stipulated by national vehicle management regulations. They are hard number plates with registration codes issued by the vehicle management authority after reviewing, inspecting, and registering the vehicle that has applied for the plates.

Where is the fender of a car located?

The fender of a car is located above the tires, between the door, hood, and bumper. The fender, also known as the wing panel, is a type of covering component on motor vehicles and non-motor vehicles, which can be divided into front fenders and rear fenders. The functions of the fender are: 1. Utilizing fluid dynamics to reduce the drag coefficient, making the car drive more smoothly; 2. Preventing gravel and mud kicked up by the wheels from splashing onto the bottom of the car body during driving. The design principles of car fenders: 1. Verify the fender size using the wheel bounce diagram based on the selected tire model and size to ensure the maximum limit space when the front tires rotate; 2. For dynamic considerations, the rear fender is slightly arched outward in a convex curve.
