The Corolla's automatic emergency braking system is enabled by default and only activates when a collision is imminent and the driver has not pressed the brake pedal. Higher-end models of the Corolla also feature Level 2 autonomous driving technology, which is highly effective and reduces the driver's workload to some extent. Below are relevant details: 1. The automatic emergency braking function refers to a technology where the vehicle, while driving normally without adaptive cruise control, can autonomously apply braking to slow down the vehicle in the event of sudden danger. However, vehicles equipped with this function may not always come to a complete stop, thereby improving driving safety. 2. Depending on the automaker, this feature may also be called the Pre-crash System, Forward-Collision-Warning System, Collision-Mitigating System, Pre-Collision System, or Collision-Mitigation-Brake System. 3. The automatic emergency braking safety technology primarily consists of three modules: the control module (ECU), the distance measurement module, and the braking module. The core of the distance measurement module includes microwave radar, facial recognition technology, and video systems, which provide safe, accurate, and real-time images and road condition information ahead. This technology uses radar to measure the distance to the vehicle or obstacle in front, then compares this distance with warning and safety thresholds using a data analysis module. If the distance is less than the warning threshold, an alert is triggered. If the distance is less than the safety threshold, the system will activate automatic braking even if the driver fails to press the brake pedal in time, ensuring safer travel.

What Causes Engine Oil to Spray from the Exhaust Pipe?

Reasons for engine oil spraying from the car's exhaust pipe are as follows: 1. Failure of pistons, cylinder liners, piston pins, or piston rings, resulting in loss of original sealing effect, leading to oil spray from the exhaust pipe. 2. Severe wear between the valve stem and valve guide, creating excessive clearance, causing oil spray from the exhaust pipe. 3. If the car's exhaust pipe is connected to the upper part, the issue may lie with the valve oil seal. 4. If the vehicle has just been serviced, residual oil in the cylinder may cause temporary oil discharge, which is normal. However, if oil leakage persists after prolonged operation post-repair, it may be due to wear of the turbocharger's floating bearing seal ring. In case of any of the above issues, regardless of the cause, it is best to leave it to professionals. This process requires systematic troubleshooting, and any errors during disassembly or assembly can lead to further vehicle malfunctions.

Is it necessary to keep a life jacket in the car?

It is not necessary to keep a life jacket in the car. Car toolkit: Every car comes with a toolkit, which usually contains some basic tools, including wrenches, screwdrivers, wheel rim keys, etc. Car owners should regularly organize and check them. It is best to clean them after each use to extend the lifespan of the tools. Spare tire: Spare tires are often forgotten under the trunk and lack maintenance. Therefore, it is recommended that car owners check the spare tire regularly every three months and inflate it if necessary. First aid kit: This is an emergency car equipment that most drivers do not have. In Audi cars, you can find a factory-equipped first aid kit. The kit should contain bandages, gauze, disinfectants, and other emergency medicines to provide first aid in case of an accident. At the same time, the first aid kit should be checked and cleaned every six months. Jack: A jack is an indispensable tool for changing tires, and almost all car manufacturers provide a set of jacks with the car. When buying a used car, be sure to check if the jack is intact, as the factory-provided jack is lightweight and easy to use. Factory car manual: Keeping the manual in the car for a long time has the advantage of clearly understanding the various conditions of the car. When a problem occurs, the cause can be immediately identified from the manual.

Will driving with a small cut on the tire have any impact?

Driving with a small cut on the tire will have an impact. Rubber Strip Plug Repair: If the tire is punctured by a nail but is not losing air, it generally means the nail hasn't penetrated the tire completely, or the nail is temporarily blocking the air leak. In this case, the most effective method is to insert a special rubber strip into the punctured area, commonly known as the "rubber strip plug method." This only takes a few minutes and doesn't require removing the tire from the rim. However, the drawback of this method is that it's not very durable, so the vehicle owner should drive to a repair shop as soon as possible for a proper tire repair. Patch Repair Method: If the tire loses air quickly after being punctured and there's no spare tire available, you can remove the tire, locate the puncture, and apply a special tire repair agent to the inner layer of the tire. The tire repair agent is a non-toxic, odorless, non-flammable, and non-sticky liquid that can both repair the tire and inflate it. When the tire is punctured and loses air, simply connect the repair agent to the tire and press the valve. It will automatically add compressed air to the tire while injecting a white, hairspray-like repair adhesive. However, if the puncture diameter exceeds 6mm, this small tool won't be effective.

What is the lifespan of the timing chain in the eighth-generation Accord?

The lifespan of the Accord's timing chain is approximately 180,000 to 200,000 kilometers. Timing Chain: The timing chain operates by connecting the crankshaft and camshaft sprockets with high-strength metal chains to ensure synchronized movement. Due to the high-speed operation between metal components, which leads to rapid wear and high temperatures, a corresponding lubrication system must be designed for cooling and lubrication. Function of the Timing Chain: The "timing belt" or "timing chain" is a critical component of the engine. Its primary function is to drive the engine's valve train, ensuring that the intake and exhaust valves open and close at the appropriate times, allowing the engine cylinders to properly intake and exhaust air.

How to Use the M Gear in a Car?

How to use the M gear in a car: 1. When overtaking, it can utilize the high torque of lower gears to accelerate faster and complete the overtaking action more quickly; 2. When going downhill, it can make full use of engine braking to reduce speed; 3. During high-speed driving, it allows for quick acceleration and can use engine braking during emergency braking; 4. When taking curves, it can utilize engine braking to slow down. The functions of the M gear are: 1. It provides greater traction when overtaking; 2. It delivers more power when climbing long slopes; 3. It allows the use of engine control to manage speed when descending long slopes, preventing brake overheating and thermal fade.
