Manual transmission oil change (gravity method) requires four to six liters; using an oil change machine requires approximately nine to twelve liters. The methods for changing transmission oil are as follows: Loosen the drain screw at the bottom of the transmission to drain the oil, then refill. Directly remove the transmission oil pan to drain and refill: This method is more thorough than the previous one, as it removes impurities from the bottom of the oil pan. Using a circulation machine to change automatic transmission oil: Dynamic oil change with an intelligent circulation machine can filter and clean sludge and impurities inside the automatic transmission. Transmission oil can reduce friction, minimize wear, control clutch friction, and optimize synchronizer performance. It also supports load-bearing (low-speed high torque, vibration loads), heat dissipation, reduces vibration and noise, and cleans contaminants from gear meshing areas (cleaning function). Additionally, it prevents corrosion, pitting, and surface metal tearing, while isolating metal surfaces to prevent direct metal-to-metal contact.

Can a Patched Tire Be Used on the Highway?

A patched tire can indeed be used normally and is suitable for highway driving. However, the method and location of the patch are crucial; if they do not meet the required standards, it could affect the safety of high-speed driving. Different manufacturers have slightly varying regulations regarding the speed limits for patched tires. Note: After a tire is repaired according to strict maintenance standards, its speed rating must be downgraded. The speed rating, indicated by a letter on the tire's sidewall, denotes the maximum speed the tire can handle. For example, in '225/15R1891V,' the letter 'V' signifies a maximum speed of 240 km/h. After patching, the rating should be downgraded from 'V' to 'H,' reducing the maximum speed to 210 km/h.
