Normally, engine oil should be added to the middle between the upper and lower limits on the dipstick. The correct steps to check the engine oil level are: 1. Park the vehicle on a flat surface, turn off the engine, and wait for 15 minutes to allow the oil to flow back into the oil pan; 2. Pull out the dipstick, wipe it clean, and then slowly reinsert it, ensuring the dipstick reaches the bottom of the oil pan; 3. Pull out the dipstick again and check the oil level. If the oil level is within the upper and lower limits on the dipstick, it is normal. If it is above the upper limit, some oil needs to be drained. If the oil level is below the lower limit, the corresponding amount of oil should be added.

Why can't I schedule the Subject 4 exam after transferring to another location?

Subject 4 cannot be scheduled in another location because the scheduling sequence for Subject 4 is arranged according to the test time of Subject 3. If the transfer for the exam is processed late or the Subject 3 test time is delayed, then the scheduling sequence will be pushed back. Scheduling requirements: According to the scheduling rules for Subject 1, first-time applicants for small cars, small automatic transmission cars, low-speed trucks, three-wheeled cars, or small automatic transmission passenger cars for the disabled must wait at least 10 days after obtaining the learning driving permit before scheduling. For applicants upgrading to large buses, tractors, city buses, medium-sized buses, or large trucks, they must wait at least 20 days after obtaining the learning driving permit before scheduling the exam. Scheduling time: The staff at the driving test centers are official police officers and generally follow national legal holidays, so the driving test centers are usually closed on weekends. If no one is working, naturally, the Subject 1 exam cannot be conducted.

Which is more accurate, CLTC or NEDC range?

CLTC range is more accurate. Compared to NEDC, CLTC includes a wider range of road condition information: urban conditions, suburban conditions, and highway conditions, with a cycle time of 1800s. The differences between the two are as follows: NEDC: The NEDC range test standard is not only outdated but also significantly differs from actual road conditions in China compared to Europe. As a result, the same car might achieve 500 km in NEDC testing, but consumers may only get 400 km or even less in real-world usage. Under conditions like highway driving or using air conditioning, the range could be even shorter. CLTC: CLTC was developed under the leadership of the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology, with industry experts from the China Automotive Technology and Research Center spending three years on research and development. The test standard was derived from data covering 41 representative cities, nearly 4000 vehicle models, and over 30 million kilometers. Directly speaking, the CLTC conditions cover a broader and more comprehensive range, with a longer duration.

What is the engine model of the Honda Spirior?

The Honda Spirior has three engine models: R20Z8, K24V4, and LFA11. Taking the 2017 Spirior as an example, it uses two engines: a 2.0-liter inline 4-cylinder naturally aspirated engine and a 2.4-liter inline 4-cylinder naturally aspirated engine. Although the hybrid version of the Honda Spirior also uses a 2.0-liter inline 4-cylinder naturally aspirated engine, its tuning is different. The gasoline-powered models are equipped with a 2.0-liter inline 4-cylinder naturally aspirated engine, paired with a CVT continuously variable transmission, delivering a maximum power of 114 kW, a maximum horsepower of 155 PS, and a maximum torque of 190 Nm. The hybrid models are equipped with a 2.0-liter inline 4-cylinder naturally aspirated engine, paired with an eCVT continuously variable transmission, delivering a maximum power of 107 kW, a maximum horsepower of 146 PS, and a maximum torque of 175 Nm. The Spirior pioneered the 'premium sport' design concept, incorporating multiple world-class advanced technologies, and shares the same basic platform as the Acura TSX and the European version of the Accord.

How to Tell if the Oxygen Sensor is Faulty

Cars with faulty oxygen sensors will experience reduced power performance and a significant increase in fuel consumption. Additionally, it can lead to rapid damage of the catalytic converter, greatly shortening its service life. Below is relevant information about automotive oxygen sensors: 1. Function: The oxygen sensor is an essential component for reducing exhaust emissions. Once the air-fuel ratio of the mixture deviates from the theoretical value, the oxygen sensor detects the oxygen concentration in the exhaust and sends feedback to the ECU. This feedback controls the fuel injector's fuel delivery, maintaining the air-fuel ratio within the normal range. 2. Principle: The oxygen sensor calculates oxygen concentration through chemical equilibrium to monitor the air-fuel ratio of the mixture. Therefore, if the oxygen sensor fails, it cannot monitor the vehicle's exhaust emission values. The core component of the oxygen sensor is a porous ZrO2 ceramic tube. At certain temperatures, high-concentration oxygen molecules inside the tube can be adsorbed to form electrons, creating a potential difference.

What are the techniques for motorcycle test subject two pole weaving?

Motorcycle test subject two pole weaving techniques: Relax your mind and muscles, find the right angle and speed to enter the poles, maintain semi-clutch state, etc. Relax your mind and muscles: Before starting to weave through the poles, the rider needs to relax both mind and muscles, naturally gripping the bike body with both legs. Find the right angle and speed to enter the poles: After starting to weave through the poles, it's crucial to find the correct entry angle and speed. If the angle is too wide or the speed too fast, the bike won't have enough turning space and may cross the width limit line. The correct approach is to enter from the midpoint between the sideline and the pole in first or second gear. Maintain semi-clutch state: After entering, proper coordination between throttle and clutch is needed, ideally maintaining a semi-clutch state. This allows timely power cutoff for necessary adjustments. Throttle application should be smooth and gentle. If the bike's position doesn't match your expectation, avoid sudden hard braking.

Why Does the Wiper Shake?

The wiper shaking is caused by issues with the wiper blade itself or foreign objects trapped between the wiper blade and the windshield. Below are the reasons for wiper shaking and their solutions: Foreign objects trapped between the wiper blade and the windshield causing shaking: When the wiper is turned on, a sharp friction noise may occur between the wiper blade and the windshield. The owner can check and clean any foreign objects present on the wiper blade or underneath it. Wiper linkage bushing friction causing shaking: Over time, the wiper linkage mechanism may age, the spring elasticity of the wiper arm may decrease, and the bushing may wear out or even fall off. Please inspect the wiper arm or the linkage bushing. Wiper motor causing shaking: If the wiper motor itself lacks sufficient power and shakes, it may be a sign that the motor is nearing the end of its lifespan. It is recommended to visit a professional repair shop for a more detailed inspection. Solutions: Wiper blades are rubber products and will harden and age over time, especially in winter. If the wiper no longer cleans effectively, the simplest and most effective solution is to replace the wiper blade directly. Generally, it is recommended to replace wiper blades every one to two years. Ensure the wiper blade area is kept clean.
