The adjustment switch for the Lavida's exterior rearview mirrors is located inside the driver's side door. Both the angle adjustment for the left and right mirrors and the heating function can be controlled via this knob. Below are the steps to adjust the Lavida's rearview mirrors: 1. Before adjusting the mirrors, ensure the vehicle seat and steering wheel are properly positioned. The basic principle for seat adjustment is to sit comfortably, have a clear view, and find the steering wheel easy to handle. Maintaining the correct sitting posture is a prerequisite for adjusting the mirrors; improper posture will render the mirrors ineffective. 2. Adjust the horizon reflection in the central rearview mirror to the center of the mirror and position the reflection of your right ear to the left edge of the mirror. For the left exterior mirror, adjust the horizon reflection to the center of the mirror and position the reflection of the left side of the car to occupy the right 1/4 of the mirror. 3. For the right exterior mirror, adjust the horizon reflection to the 2/3 height of the mirror and position the reflection of the right side of the car to occupy the left 1/4 of the mirror. Allowing the ground reflection to occupy more area in the right mirror helps the driver better assess the road conditions on the right side and makes it easier to judge the distance between the car and the curb when parking.

What Causes Brake Shudder?

Brake shudder is caused by uneven wear of the brake disc, such as when the outer part of the brake disc is thicker than the inner part or vice versa. During braking, the brake pads clamp the brake disc vertically. If the brake disc is uneven and does not fully contact the brake pads, it will cause shuddering. The higher the speed, the more severe the shuddering becomes, making it harder to stop the vehicle. Brake shudder can also occur when new brake pads are installed and not yet broken in. Since new brake pads contain more metal content, they tend to be harder, which can amplify vibrations when rubbing against the metal brake disc, leading to shuddering. Therefore, it is advisable to drive cautiously for a certain distance after installing new brake pads and avoid sudden braking.

What are the methods for self-repairing when the airbag light is on?

Airbag light on self-repair methods are: 1. Instrument self-check: During the short period of ignition, the instrument will perform an automatic check. After the automatic check is completed, the airbag light will automatically go out. This time will be about 5 seconds, which is a normal phenomenon; 2. False fault: Battery power loss can cause the airbag light to come on. Simply charge the battery; 3. The airbag can feedback a signal of low airbag pressure, forming a fault code. At this time, it is necessary to eliminate this fault code; 4. True fault: If the above two reasons are excluded, it may be a line fault, and you should go to repair immediately.

What Causes Lack of Power, Dullness, Slow Acceleration, and Jerking in a Car?

Here are the reasons for lack of power, dullness, slow acceleration, and jerking in a car: Engine fuel system blockage: Clogged fuel injectors, leaking fuel lines, reduced fuel pump performance, or a blocked fuel filter. Intake system issues: Components like the air filter or throttle valve being clogged or malfunctioning, leading to insufficient air intake. Poor spark plug ignition: Noticeable shaking when the car is idling, indicating at least one cylinder is not functioning properly or has stalled. Other factors: There can be many reasons for slow acceleration and lack of power in a car, but generally, the faults are concentrated in the engine's ignition, intake, and fuel systems. By systematically checking and eliminating each possibility, you can resolve issues like lack of power, dullness, slow acceleration, and increased fuel consumption.

Should autohold be kept on all the time?

autohold is an automatic parking function, whether to keep it on all the time depends on the driver's needs for this function. During normal use, the advantage of autohold is that it can automatically activate the four-wheel braking system when the vehicle is stopped at a traffic light or on a slope. Even in D gear or N gear, there is no need to keep the foot on the brake or use the handbrake, as the car remains stationary. autohold provides accurate parking force through a slope sensor controlled by the controller. When starting the car, the parking control unit calculates information from the clutch distance sensor, clutch engagement speed sensor, and throttle pedal sensor. It automatically releases the parking brake when the driving force exceeds the driving resistance, allowing the car to start smoothly and significantly reducing the time wasted on judgment based on experience.
