The method to cancel the auto start-stop function in Corolla is: simply press the auto start-stop button. The auto start-stop system automatically shuts off the engine when the vehicle comes to a temporary stop during driving and restarts it when it's time to move forward again. The Corolla is a compact car under Toyota, featuring a 4-door, 5-seater sedan body structure. Its dimensions are: length 4635 mm, width 1780 mm, height 1455 mm, with a wheelbase of 2700 mm. The Corolla is equipped with a 1.2L inline 4-cylinder turbocharged engine, delivering a maximum power of 85 kW, with the maximum power achieved at 5200 to 5600 rpm.

I've been driving my Corolla for over a year, and the most annoying thing is the engine always automatically shutting off at red lights. Actually, canceling it is very simple - after starting the vehicle each time, look for the button near the gear shift with the letter 'A' and an arrow, press it once and the dashboard will display 'Auto Stop Disabled'. This operation needs to be done manually every time you get in the car, as it cannot be permanently turned off. However, I found a workaround - unplugging the sensor connector on the battery's negative terminal in the engine compartment can solve it once and for all, but this will cause the system to display an error light and may affect the warranty, so it's better to just press the button diligently. I turn it off during short trips, especially in summer when the AC is on, as frequent auto start-stop actions can easily lead to battery drain.

What is the maximum length of a blue license plate truck cargo compartment?

Blue license plate trucks have a maximum vehicle length of 6m and a total mass of less than 4500kg. Vehicles eligible for blue license plates are light and mini trucks. Trucks are classified into three types: light, medium, and heavy. Different countries have varying classification methods and standards. In China, trucks are classified based on their load capacity: light trucks have a load capacity below 3.5 tons, medium trucks range from 4 to 8 tons, and heavy trucks exceed 8 tons. Below is an introduction to license plate types: 1. New energy vehicle license plates: Green background with black characters and black borders. New energy vehicle plates feature a gradient green color, while large new energy vehicle plates combine yellow and green (the regional code part is yellow, and the number part is green). 2. Large vehicle license plates: Yellow background with black characters and black borders. These are for medium (and above) passenger vehicles, trucks, special purpose vehicles, semi-trailer tractors, and electric vehicles. 3. Trailer license plates: Yellow background with black characters and black borders. These are for full trailers and semi-trailers not permanently attached to a tractor. 4. Small vehicle license plates: Blue background with white characters and white borders. These are for medium and below passenger vehicles, trucks, and special purpose vehicles. 5. Embassy and consulate vehicle license plates: Black background with white characters and white borders. These are for vehicles of embassies and consulates in China.

What to Do if the Rear Window Defroster Wires Are Scratched During Film Reapplication?

During the reapplication of window film, the rear window defroster wires will not be scratched because they are embedded between the layers of glass. The film also does not significantly affect the heating function. The benefits of automotive window film are as follows: 1. Heat and Sun Protection: The film effectively blocks a large amount of heat generated by infrared rays. For example, the Mocha front windshield film MA70 can block up to 99% of infrared radiation. 2. UV Protection: Medium and long-wave ultraviolet rays can penetrate thick glass, but the film can block 99% of UV rays, preventing skin damage and reducing the aging of car interiors. 3. Safety and Explosion Protection: The base layer of the film is made of polyester, which is highly resistant to tearing and puncturing. Combined with the adhesive layer, the film can increase the glass strength by 100 times, preventing secondary injuries from accidental glass breakage. 4. Creating Privacy: After applying the film, it becomes difficult to see inside the car from a distance of one meter, ensuring privacy and security.

Which Cars Have the Gear Shift on the Center Console?

Currently, among the models on sale, those with the gear shift located on the center console include the Mercedes-Benz Vito, Volkswagen Multivan, Buick GL8, Chrysler Pacifica, Ford S-MAX, Honda Odyssey, and the new Picasso, among others. These are generally found in MPV models. The reasons for designing the gear shift on the center console are as follows: 1. Increased space utilization: Placing the gear shift on the center console can effectively increase the space utilization between the driver and the front passenger. 2. Convenience for the driver: Typically, MPV models are taller and wider, so the central passage inside the vehicle is also wider. If the gear shift were placed in the conventional position, it would increase the distance the driver's wrist has to move during gear shifting, making it awkward. Therefore, to facilitate the driver's operation, the gear shift is placed on the center console.

What are the sensors on a car?

There are oxygen sensors, wheel speed sensors, coolant temperature sensors, electronic throttle pedal position sensors, intake pressure sensors, etc. on a car. Below is a partial introduction to car sensors: 1. Oxygen sensor: When the oxygen sensor fails, the ECU cannot obtain this information and does not know whether the amount of gasoline injected is correct. 2. Wheel speed sensor: It mainly collects the car's speed to determine if there are signs of skidding. Once the sensor is damaged, the ABS will fail. 3. Coolant temperature sensor: When the coolant temperature sensor fails, it often shows the temperature signal of a hot car when starting a cold car, and the ECU cannot get the correct signal. 4. Electronic throttle pedal position sensor: When the sensor fails, the ECU cannot measure the throttle position signal, and even situations where the engine cannot accelerate may occur. 5. Intake pressure sensor: As the name suggests, the intake pressure sensor senses a series of resistance and pressure changes with different engine speed loads, converts them into voltage signals, and provides them to the ECU to correct the fuel injection amount and ignition timing angle.

What Are the Methods of Shifting Gears in Cars?

There are several methods of shifting gears in cars: 1. Manual Transmission: Manual transmission, even within manual transmissions, there are many different operation methods, mainly differing in the position of the reverse gear. The most common is the traditional manual transmission, where the reverse gear is located at the bottom right. There are also a few 6-speed models where the reverse gear is next to the first gear, requiring a strong push to the left before engaging reverse, such as in the older BMW 1 Series M. 2. Push-Down Reverse: Push-down reverse requires pressing the gear lever down before engaging the first gear or reverse position. This shifting method is more common in Volkswagen manual transmission models, designed mainly to prevent accidental operation. 3. Pull-Up Reverse: Pull-up reverse is commonly found in Korean cars, such as Hyundai and Kia, as well as some American cars like Buick and Chevrolet. There is a pull ring or button below the gear knob, which must be pressed before engaging reverse. 4. Automatic Transmission: Automatic transmission has even more shifting methods. The first and most common is the simplest straight-line automatic transmission lever, arranged in a straight line from top to bottom. To operate, simply press the brake and the button on the gear lever to shift.

How long should you warm up your car?

Warming up your car typically takes about two minutes, mainly determined by the engine RPM. Once the RPM stabilizes around 800, the car is sufficiently warmed up. Below is some relevant information about warming up your car: 1. Reasons for warming up: The primary reason for warming up your car is that after prolonged parking, the engine oil flows back into the oil pan at the bottom of the engine. Therefore, when you start the car, the upper part of the engine is initially without oil and lacks lubrication. It takes about one minute after starting for the oil pump to circulate the oil to critical components like the pistons, connecting rods, and crankshaft, which need lubrication the most. 2. Effects of warming up for too long: It is not advisable to warm up your car for too long. Never exceed three minutes, as prolonged warming up not only increases fuel consumption and emissions but can also lead to carbon buildup and potential engine damage due to idling without driving.
