Bentley Flying Spur's brake caliper has one piston on the master cylinder and two on the slave cylinder. Structure of the Brake System: The main components of the brake system include the brake pedal, master cylinder, brake booster, slave cylinder, brake caliper, brake pads, brake discs, and an additional braking assistance device, the ABS pump. Working Principle of the Brake System: When the brake pedal is pressed, the force is transmitted to the master cylinder. The master cylinder piston pushes the brake fluid forward, which then moves the slave cylinder. The slave cylinder pushes the brake pads to clamp the brake disc. For turbocharged engines, the vacuum comes from a vacuum pump. Therefore, vacuum is only generated when the engine is running. After the engine is turned off, the vacuum source is no longer sustained, and assistance cannot be provided.

How to reset the tire pressure monitoring system on a 2019 Bora?

Method to reset the tire pressure monitoring system on a 2019 Bora: Turn on the ignition switch and hold down the tire pressure monitoring reset button for a few seconds. The illumination of the tire pressure warning light is a critical signal that requires immediate attention. The primary functions of the tire pressure monitoring system are as follows: 1. Accident prevention: As an active safety device, the tire pressure monitoring system can alert the driver promptly when potential tire hazards are detected, enabling timely corrective actions to prevent serious accidents. 2. Extending tire lifespan: With the tire pressure monitoring system, tires can consistently operate within specified pressure and temperature ranges, reducing tire damage and prolonging their service life. Studies indicate that driving with underinflated tires (10% below normal pressure) reduces tire lifespan by 15%. 3. Improved fuel efficiency: Underinflated tires increase the contact area with the road surface, raising rolling resistance. When tire pressure falls 30% below standard, fuel consumption increases by 10%. 4. Reduced suspension system wear: Overinflated tires diminish the tire's natural shock absorption, placing additional strain on the vehicle's suspension system. Prolonged use under these conditions can significantly damage the engine chassis and suspension components. Uneven tire pressure may also cause braking deviation, accelerating wear on the suspension system.

How often should a new Camry be serviced?

The Camry should undergo regular maintenance every 10,000 kilometers or 6 months. Conventional mineral oil can be changed every 5,000 kilometers, while synthetic oil can be extended to 7,500 kilometers, and full synthetic oil can be replaced around 10,000 kilometers. In terms of time, if the car hasn't driven 5,000 kilometers in half a year, it's advisable to consider changing the oil after six months. Here are some details about the Toyota Camry: 1. Exterior: The eighth-generation Camry features dual styling designs—Luxury and Sport—both inspired by Toyota's latest "Keen-Look" design language. The Luxury version adopts a large trapezoidal horizontal grille, with a streamlined body posture, lower waistline, and an extended roof rear section that increases rear headroom. 2. Interior: The eighth-generation Camry has undergone significant changes. All three models share the same interior design, differing only in the material of the decorative panels above the glove box and near the gear lever. The interior features an asymmetrical design, with a Y-shaped curve on the center console. 3. Features: The eighth-generation Camry is equipped with Toyota's latest Toyota Safety Sense, including the Pre-Collision System (PCS), Lane Departure Alert (LDA), Automatic High Beam (AHB), and Dynamic Radar Cruise Control (DRCC), providing safer driving assistance.

Is there an exam fee for the first attempt at Subject 1?

There is no additional fee for the Subject 1 exam as the cost is already included in the registration fee. However, a retake fee applies if you need to retake the exam. According to the "Regulations on the Application and Use of Motor Vehicle Driver's Licenses," candidates are allowed two attempts on the exam day for drunk driving-related Subject 1 tests. The first failure grants a free second attempt. If the second attempt also fails, the Subject 1 exam is terminated, and the candidate must wait ten days before reapplying. Subject 1, also known as the theoretical driving test or driver's theory exam, is part of the motor vehicle driver's license assessment. The exam covers driving theory basics, road safety laws and regulations, local statutes, and related knowledge. The Subject 1 test consists of 100 questions, divided into single-choice and true/false questions, each worth 1 point, totaling 100 points. If a candidate answers 11 questions incorrectly during the exam, the system will automatically submit the test and end the session. The Subject 1 exam is computer-based and has a time limit of 45 minutes. Subject 1 exam content: Driver's license and motor vehicle management regulations; road traffic conditions and regulations; road traffic safety violations and penalties; road traffic accident handling regulations; basic knowledge of motor vehicles; local regulations; knowledge of braking systems and safety devices for large and medium-sized passenger and freight vehicles; specialized knowledge for wheeled self-propelled machinery, trams, and trolleybuses. Subject 1 exam notes: Candidates should dress appropriately for the exam—no slippers are allowed. Electronic devices and bags are prohibited in the exam room. Bring your ID card and queue to enter the waiting hall. Observe the instructions and procedures on the large screen, and store personal belongings in lockers before entering the exam room. Upon entering, the identity verification station will assign a seat. Once seated, begin the exam. Ensure the camera is aligned with you and adhere to exam discipline. If you fail the first attempt, a same-day retake is available. Failing the retake requires payment to reschedule. After completion, queue to collect your score report and sign it. Unsigned reports are considered invalid. There is no limit to the number of times you can schedule the Subject 1 exam. Each subject allows one exam attempt, with one retake if you fail. If you skip the retake or fail it, the exam session ends, and you must reschedule. In contrast, Subject 2 and Subject 3 allow only five exam attempts each, with a mandatory ten-day wait before rescheduling. If you fail the Subject 3 safe driving knowledge test, your previously passed road driving skills test results remain valid. The driving test consists of three subjects: Subject 1, Subject 2, and Subject 3. Subject 1 refers to the road traffic safety laws, regulations, and related knowledge exam. Subject 2 refers to the field driving skills test. Subject 3 is divided into two parts: road driving skills and safe driving knowledge. The safe driving knowledge test is conducted after Subject 3, commonly referred to as Subject 4, though this term is not officially recognized in the regulations (i.e., the Ministry of Public Security's Order No. 123).

How many liters of fuel can the Mazda CX-4 tank hold?

The fuel tank capacity of the Mazda CX-4 2.5L Automatic AWD Skyactiv-X Fearless Edition and 2.5L Automatic AWD Skyactiv-X Passion Edition is 49.2 liters. The fuel tank capacity for the 2.5L Automatic 2WD Skyactiv-X Driving Fun Edition and all 2.0L versions is 45 liters. This data is officially released, and Mazda CX-4 owners can also check it on the vehicle's configuration sheet. The Mazda CX-4 uses 92-octane fuel. The fuel consumption per 100 kilometers for the 2.5L Automatic AWD Skyactiv-X Fearless Edition and 2.5L Automatic AWD Skyactiv-X Passion Edition ranges from 7.2 to 7.3 liters, allowing a driving range of 674 to 686 km on a full tank. The 2.5L Automatic 2WD Skyactiv-X Driving Fun Edition and 2.0L versions have a fuel consumption per 100 kilometers ranging from 6.3 to 6.8 liters, enabling a driving range of 662 to 714 km on a full tank. During daily driving, it is essential to monitor the remaining fuel level in the tank. This is typically observed through the fuel gauge inside the vehicle. If there are no other issues, the fuel level will be accurately reflected on the gauge. The fuel gauge usually has 5 to 6 segments, and it is advisable to refuel when only 2 segments remain to avoid running out of fuel midway. During actual refueling, the amount of fuel added may exceed the marked capacity. This is because the fuel tank capacity specified by the manufacturer is measured from the bottom of the tank to the safe limit, and there is additional space from the safe limit to the tank opening. This space ensures that the fuel can expand when temperatures rise without overflowing. If fuel is added up to the tank opening during refueling, the actual amount of fuel added may exceed the marked tank capacity.
