The Bora's tire pressure monitoring system automatically activates once the vehicle is started. Its function is to monitor tire pressure in real-time during driving and alert the driver in case of tire leaks or low pressure to ensure driving safety. Below are specific details about the Bora: 1. Exterior: The new Bora has switched to the MQB platform. Its overall product strength surpasses the previous generation, especially in terms of space, where both measured and perceived values have improved. The trunk offers a capacity of 506L in its standard configuration, ranking high among its peers, though there is still room for improvement in terms of flatness and hidden storage space. 2. Comfort: The new Bora features seats with moderate firmness and good support. The dual-tone leather seats provide excellent visual and tactile appeal, balancing both quality and comfort. While the suspension tuning has been upgraded compared to the previous generation, drivers can clearly feel the effort engineers put into refining the suspension system, delivering impressive shock absorption comfort on bumpy roads. 3. Powertrain: The Bora offers two engine options—a 1.5L naturally aspirated engine and a 1.4T turbocharged engine. The transmission system provides three choices: a 5-speed manual transmission, a 6-speed automatic manual transmission, and a 7-speed dual-clutch transmission.

I just helped a friend adjust the tire pressure monitoring on his Bora. Actually, it doesn't need to be manually activated because the system operates automatically - the warning light will illuminate if there's any issue with tire pressure. But if you want to set or reset it, you'll need to access the vehicle's settings menu. First, start the car and use the buttons on the right side of the steering wheel to navigate to the settings option on the dashboard, then find the tire pressure monitoring section to select the reset button. Before resetting, make sure all tire pressures are within the normal range - you can manually check each tire with a pressure gauge; if the pressure is too low, it will affect braking distance and fuel consumption. Regularly checking tire pressure is a good habit - I personally measure mine once a month to avoid the danger of a blowout on the road. After all, safety comes first, and paying attention to these small details can save a lot of trouble.

What is the Difference Between Monocoque Body and Body-on-Frame?

The difference between monocoque body and body-on-frame lies in their structural design: The monocoque body eliminates the independent frame found in body-on-frame vehicles, instead connecting various body structural components together to form what is known as the "beams" of the monocoque body. Body-on-frame construction is commonly seen in some off-road vehicles and trucks, where components such as the cargo compartment, tires, cabin, and engine are mounted on a large steel beam, often referred to as the "frame," hence the term body-on-frame. Nowadays, there are very few options for body-on-frame vehicles, mostly limited to specialized off-road models like the Haval H9, Haval H5, Toyota Prado, Toyota Land Cruiser, and Jeep Wrangler. Therefore, off-road enthusiasts may prefer body-on-frame vehicles. The advantages of monocoque bodies include lighter weight, lower center of gravity, and higher interior space utilization, making them more comfort-oriented.

What is the difference between disc brakes and drum brakes?

The difference between disc brakes and drum brakes lies in their working principles: disc brakes achieve braking by applying hydraulic pressure to the caliper, which clamps the friction material against the brake disc; drum brakes work by incorporating pistons inside the brake drum, which are hydraulically actuated to press against the drum, creating friction for braking. Braking, also known as deceleration, refers to the action of stopping or reducing the speed of moving locomotives, vehicles, and other transportation tools or machinery. The principle of braking involves fixing a wheel or disc on the high-speed shaft of the machine and installing corresponding brake shoes, bands, or discs on the machine base, which generate braking torque under external force.

How Often Should Fuel Injectors Be Cleaned?

Fuel injectors should be cleaned every 2 years or every 50,000 to 80,000 kilometers. The performance of fuel injectors plays a fundamental role in the power output of every engine. Even if the injectors are slightly clogged, there's no need to panic, as impurities can be flushed away and dissolved during high-gear acceleration. It is recommended that drivers frequently drive at high speeds to reduce carbon buildup. Due to urban traffic congestion, cars often operate at low speeds or idle, which exacerbates the formation and accumulation of deposits. This can lead to issues such as incomplete intake valve sealing, sluggish acceleration, unstable engine idling, increased fuel consumption, and worsened exhaust emissions. Therefore, regular cleaning of fuel injectors is essential.

How to Remove the Speed Limit on New National Standard Electric Bikes?

New national standard electric bike speed limit removal method: 1. With the power lock turned off, the kickstand up, and the motor hub stationary; 2. Turn the throttle to its maximum position (signal greater than 3V) while holding the brake; 3. Turn on the power lock; 4. Maintain the brake and fully turned throttle position for more than 10 seconds; 5. Completely release both the brake and throttle; 6. The speed limit switch is now permanently removed. With the increase in electric bikes, the national requirements for production quality and standards have also improved. New national standard electric bike models include: Yadea, Luyuan, Aima, Tailin, Xinri, and Xiaodao's A2 national standard version, among others. All these models have 3C mandatory certification.

What is Yokohama Tire?

Yokohama, known in Chinese as Yokohama Tire (formerly called Yokohama Tire), is a brand of tires. The main models of Yokohama tires include 195/65R15 and 205/60R15. Tires are one of the essential components of a vehicle, directly contacting the road surface and working in conjunction with the vehicle's suspension to absorb shocks during driving, ensuring a comfortable ride and smooth driving experience. Tires are circular elastic rubber products mounted on various vehicles or machinery that roll on the ground. They are often used under complex and demanding conditions, enduring various deformations, loads, forces, and extreme temperatures during operation. Therefore, tires must possess high load-bearing capacity, traction performance, and cushioning ability, along with high wear resistance and flexibility, as well as low rolling resistance and heat generation.

What does parking brake mean?

Parking brake refers to the manual brake installed in motor vehicles, commonly known as the handbrake. It is used to stabilize the vehicle after it comes to a stop, preventing accidents caused by rolling on inclined roads. The typical handbrake is usually positioned within easy reach of the driver's right hand for convenient operation. Some automatic transmission models on the market feature a foot brake located outside the driver's left foot, which serves the same function as the handbrake. Advanced models may also be equipped with an electronic parking brake system. Functions of the parking brake: Prevent the vehicle from rolling after stopping, assist in smooth starting on slopes, and serve as a temporary or supplementary emergency brake when the service brake fails. Under normal circumstances, the parking brake should not be used to slow down the vehicle before it comes to a complete stop. In all cases when parking, the driver must firmly pull the parking brake lever before leaving the vehicle. How to use the parking brake: To engage the parking brake, press the brake pedal down and pull the parking brake lever up fully. To release the parking brake, press the brake pedal down, slightly lift the parking brake lever, press the button on the handle with your thumb, and then lower the parking brake lever back to its original position.
