The Corolla radiator requires 4 liters of water per refill. Antifreeze is a coolant with special additives, primarily used in liquid-cooled engine cooling systems. It offers excellent properties such as freeze protection in winter, year-round scale prevention, and corrosion resistance. The exact amount of water to be added depends on the actual situation. If the water level in the radiator is below the corresponding water level mark, it is necessary to add water up to the MAX mark on the reservoir. The Corolla has body dimensions of 4630mm in length, 1775mm in width, and 1480mm in height, with a wheelbase of 2700mm. This model is equipped with a newly developed inline four-cylinder 1.8L engine featuring dual VVTi technology. Paired with either a 6-speed manual transmission or a 4-speed automatic transmission, it delivers a maximum power output of 100kw and a peak torque of 175nm.

What does NORMAL mode mean?

NORMAL in a car refers to the conventional or standard driving mode, which is the most commonly used mode. In this mode, every aspect of the car's performance is balanced to achieve the best compromise between fuel economy, quietness, and power performance, making it suitable for urban driving. Modern automatic transmissions are designed with different shift logics in the electronic control unit to meet various driving requirements and adapt to different road conditions. A mode selection switch is also provided on the control panel, allowing drivers to choose the transmission control mode independently. Common automatic transmission control modes include the following: ECONOMY mode: This control mode is designed to maximize fuel efficiency. When the automatic transmission operates in ECONOMY mode, its shift pattern ensures the engine frequently runs within the most economical speed range, thereby improving fuel economy. POWER mode: This control mode is designed to maximize the vehicle's power performance. In this mode, the automatic transmission's shift pattern ensures the engine frequently operates within the high-power range, enhancing the car's acceleration and climbing capabilities. SNOW mode: Some automatic transmission models feature a "snowflake" button near the gear lever, which activates the SNOW mode. This mode uses programmed settings to make the transmission start in second gear, ensuring smoother and gentler torque output and reducing the likelihood of tire slippage on icy or snowy roads. SPORT mode: The electronic control unit increases the engine speed to maintain sufficient torque and enhance power performance, though this consumes more fuel. It temporarily boosts engine power for rapid acceleration, essentially functioning as an acceleration gear, hill-climbing gear, or overtaking gear. In SPORT mode, the engine speed surges sharply. Additionally, high engine speeds in SPORT mode can help remove carbon deposits, but prolonged use is not recommended as it increases transmission load, raises temperatures, and accelerates wear. INDIVIDUAL mode: This allows drivers to customize feedback settings for various modules, typically including steering wheel weight, chassis stiffness, throttle response, transmission reaction, engine mode, steering system mode, and exhaust system mode.

What Causes Vibration in D Gear but Not in N Gear When Braking?

D gear shifting to N gear vibration is caused by a dirty throttle, faulty spark plugs, or brake disc issues. Dirty throttle: When carbon deposits or other contaminants adhere to the throttle, it disrupts the balance between the air intake and fuel injection, leading to insufficient fuel supply during engine operation and resulting in vehicle vibration. Cleaning the throttle can resolve this issue. Faulty spark plugs: When the vehicle vibrates intensely, it is often due to spark plug problems. Check if any spark plug in a cylinder is damaged. Replacing the spark plugs can solve the problem. Brake pad issues: When brake pads are significantly worn, you may experience reduced braking effectiveness, vehicle vibration, and abnormal noises from the wheels during braking. Replacing the brake pads can resolve this. Shifting techniques: Shift quickly, control the starting gear, keep your eyes on the road while shifting, shift sequentially, and shift smoothly. Shifting precautions: Do not look down during shifting, always pay attention to road conditions, fully depress the clutch when shifting, do not skip gears, and avoid staying in first gear all the time.

How long is the NIO ES6's range?

According to official data, the highest configuration version of the NIO ES6 has a range of 610km. The NIO ES6 is a high-performance, long-range intelligent electric SUV launched by NIO at the 2018 NIO Day in the Shanghai Oriental Sports Center. The NIO ES6 is positioned as a mid-size pure electric SUV with a five-seat layout. It comes standard with a 70KWH ternary lithium battery pack, with an optional 84KWH nickel-cobalt-manganese NCM811 battery cell. There are three versions with a total of six models: the Base Edition, Performance Edition, and Launch Edition, with the fastest acceleration from 0-100km/h in 4.7 seconds. Methods to improve the vehicle's range: New energy vehicles do not have an internal combustion engine and therefore do not require warming up the engine, but they do need to warm up the battery. Before starting, turn on the heater for 10 minutes to allow the battery temperature to rise before driving. This can improve the range, significantly increase charging speed, and enhance charging performance. It is recommended to set the heater to levels 1 or 2 only. Excessive airflow can accelerate battery discharge and also affect the range.

Is the brake on the left and the accelerator on the right in an automatic transmission car?

In an automatic transmission car, the brake is on the left and the accelerator is on the right. The main reason for this design is that the accelerator is used more frequently, and placing it on the outer side of the right foot makes it a more comfortable position to press. Below is an introduction to the related content: Reasons for the brake position being designed on the inner side of the right foot: The brake is set on the inner side of the right foot, and the brake pedal is slightly higher than the accelerator pedal. This design is intended to facilitate the driver's quick reaction. Correct operation method: The correct operation method should involve rotating the right foot left and right with the heel as the pivot, using the sole of the foot to press the pedals. Drivers should develop the habit of placing the heel directly below the brake pedal so that they can brake at any time in case of an emergency. When not accelerating, the foot should be placed on the brake pedal, ready to brake at any moment. If the foot is placed near the accelerator, it may lead to accidental pressing in a state of panic, whereas placing it on the brake allows for a quicker response to sudden situations.

What to Do If You Are Caught by Surveillance for Failing the Exhaust Emission Test?

Exceeding the exhaust emission standards may result in a fine of up to 200 yuan for the driver and a deduction of 3 points. Below are the reasons that may cause excessive exhaust emissions: 1. The main reason is the use of low-quality fuel. It is advisable to choose gas stations of well-known brands when refueling. 2. Using low-quality fuel can lead to incomplete combustion in the engine, resulting in carbon buildup. 3. A clogged catalytic converter or a malfunctioning oxygen sensor can also cause excessive exhaust emissions. Here are some precautions regarding exhaust emissions: 1. During the annual inspection, the OBD (On-Board Diagnostics) will be checked, which primarily monitors whether the vehicle's exhaust emissions meet the standards. 2. If the OBD check fails, the annual inspection will be affected. Therefore, before the inspection, you can visit a 4S shop to check if there are any fault codes in the OBD. 3. If there are any fault codes, they should be cleared promptly. After clearing the fault codes, the vehicle should be driven sufficiently for a certain distance before the annual inspection to ensure there are no major issues during the OBD check.
