According to the height of water immersion, flood-damaged vehicles are classified into 3 levels. Below are the specific details: Explanation: Oil dipstick > water level > chassis, classified as Level 1 flood-damaged vehicle. Roof > water level > oil dipstick, classified as Level 2 flood-damaged vehicle. Water level > dashboard, classified as Level 3 flood-damaged vehicle. Introduction: A flood-damaged vehicle refers to a car that has been soaked in water, typically indicating that the wiring has been submerged, with the water depth exceeding one-third of the wheel height, and the vehicle's bottom components have been in prolonged contact with water. Such vehicles pose significant risks. The electrical circuits are prone to short circuits and even fires. 'Flood-damaged vehicles' can be repaired to a certain extent, but even after repair, serious hidden dangers remain. The longer the immersion time, the higher the likelihood of malfunctions. It's like a watch falling into water—even if it's disassembled and dried, the watch will still malfunction and cannot be completely repaired.

What is the difference between spoked wheels and solid wheels?

The differences between spoked wheels and solid wheels are as follows: 1. Appearance: Solid wheels are mainly made of magnesium alloy or carbon fiber composite, while spoked wheels are primarily constructed from carbon fiber. 2. Performance: Solid wheels are heavier than spoked wheels, and the wheel inertia benefits fast riding, making them suitable for smooth roads where speed is prioritized. They are a molded structure without welding points, offering more stable performance. They are less prone to weld cracking, deformation, or other impacts even when overloaded or frequently ridden on bumpy roads. Spoked wheel bicycles are more suitable for mountain bikes. The first 10 kilometers might be more challenging, but afterward, the shock absorption improves significantly, making the ride more effortless. Spoked wheels are durable, and if deformed, they can be adjusted back.

Where is the brake light switch on the Lavida?

Lavida's brake light switch is located behind the brake pedal at the driver's footwell. Below is some information about brake lights: 1. Brake lights illuminate when the vehicle brakes, usually in red, serving to warn vehicles behind; additionally, they effectively prevent rear-end collisions and reduce traffic accidents. 2. Notes on replacing brake light bulbs: Most Chinese-made vehicles have tail lights with "dual-function bulbs"—each bulb contains two filaments, the weaker one for parking lights and the stronger one for brake lights. Some manufacturers design them as offset-pin plug-ins for convenience, but be careful not to reverse the connections during replacement.
