The method for adjusting steering when reversing into a parking space is as follows: when entering from the left, turn the steering wheel to the left in advance. If the left side is narrow, delay turning the steering wheel to the left. When entering from the right, delay turning the steering wheel to the right. If the left side is narrow, turn the steering wheel to the right in advance. The details are as follows: 1. When the car body is tilted to the right, the rearview mirror shows a "left wide, right narrow" position relationship. At this time, turn the steering wheel to the left by 1/4 of a turn, and straighten the direction when the car body is aligned. 2. When the car body is tilted to the left, the rearview mirror shows a "right wide, left narrow" position relationship. At this time, turn the steering wheel to the right by 1/4 of a turn, and straighten the direction when the car body is aligned. 3. When the car body is parallel to the garage but the entire car is tilted to the left, if not adjusted, it is easy to press against the left front corner of the garage when exiting to the left. Therefore, you can first turn the steering wheel to the right by 1/4 of a turn, observe that the front wheels do not easily press the line, and when the distance on the right side is about right, turn the steering wheel to the left by 1/4 of a turn. When the car body is parallel to the garage again, straighten the direction. If the entire car is tilted to the right, the operation principle is the same, but the adjustment direction is opposite.

Should the Vehicle Stability System Be Turned Off on Rainy Days?

The vehicle stability system should be turned off on rainy days. Situations where ESP needs to be turned off include: 1. When the vehicle is stuck in mud or sand: Imagine driving in muddy conditions where wheel traction is minimal. The ESP will activate, applying brakes to certain wheels. In this scenario, engine torque is continuously consumed by wheels with lower rolling resistance, and the ESP limits engine RPM. Even if you press the accelerator hard, it may still be difficult to escape. Therefore, turning off the ESP is necessary to free the vehicle. 2. When encountering wheel slip while climbing on rainy or snowy days: When starting on snowy or waterlogged roads, especially on slopes, wheels are prone to slipping. The system detects this and the ESP restricts engine output, potentially preventing the vehicle from climbing slopes that it would otherwise manage. 3. When using snow chains: With snow chains installed, sensors like wheel speed sensors and lateral acceleration sensors may provide inaccurate signals, affecting the ESP's normal operation. The ESP might continuously intervene or display error codes, making it better to turn it off.
