This model does not have a traditional dipstick, so you need to check the oil level information through the central display. Precautions for checking the oil level are as follows: 1. After adding oil, start the vehicle and then turn it off. Wait for 3 minutes before checking the oil level. This is because when changing the oil, the oil filter is also replaced, and the new oil filter initially contains no oil. Starting the vehicle allows oil to flow into the filter. 2. Turning off the engine for 3 minutes ensures the oil flows back into the oil pan, providing a more accurate reading. Importantly, do not check the oil level on a slope, as the vehicle's tilt will cause the oil in the pan to be uneven, resulting in an inaccurate measurement.

Do Manual Transmission Cars Need Transmission Fluid Replacement?

Manual transmission cars do require transmission fluid replacement, typically every 3 years or after driving approximately 80,000 to 100,000 kilometers. The replacement method is as follows: 1. Remove the transmission guard plate, loosen the screws on the oil pan, and drain the old transmission fluid; 2. Unscrew the oil pan screws and remove the oil pan; 3. Apply sealant to the new oil pan and tighten it; 4. Loosen the screws on the left side of the transmission to add new fluid. The reasons for replacing transmission fluid are: 1. To ensure smooth and seamless gear shifting, improving driving performance; 2. To provide excellent oxidation resistance, reducing rust on mechanical parts; 3. To offer superior protection for the gear set; 4. To enhance anti-wear effects and prolong the lifespan of the manual transmission.

Where are the places to use turn signals in Subject 2?

There are four situations in Subject 2 where turn signals are required: starting, parallel parking, hill start, and right-angle turns. It's important to note that all turn signals must remain on for at least 3 seconds, otherwise it will be considered a failure. When starting in Subject 2, just like in Subject 3, you need to turn on the left turn signal. Parallel parking requires using turn signals twice: first, turn on the right turn signal when shifting into reverse gear and preparing to back into the parking space; second, turn on the left turn signal when preparing to exit after passing the test. Hill start: After completing the hill stop, turn on the left turn signal when preparing to start on the slope. Right-angle turns: These are divided into left and right turns. For a left turn, first turn on the left turn signal; for a right turn, first turn on the right turn signal. Subject 2, also known as the small road test, is part of the motor vehicle driver's license assessment. It refers to the field driving skills test. The test items for cars (C1, C2) include five mandatory items: reversing into a garage, parallel parking, hill start, right-angle turns, and curve driving (commonly known as S-curves). Some regions may have a sixth item: highway toll card collection. If you fail the Subject 2 test on the first attempt, you can retake it once. If you don't take the retest or fail the retest, the test will be terminated, and the applicant must reschedule the test after ten days. During the validity period of the driving skills test permit, the number of scheduled tests for Subject 2 and Subject 3 road driving skills tests cannot exceed five times. If you fail the fifth scheduled test, the results of other subjects that have passed will be invalidated.

How to Self-Rescue When an Automatic Car Battery Dies

Solutions for an automatic car with a dead battery are as follows: 1. If you are on a highway or in a place without assistance or tools, the only option is to call the emergency assistance center. They can dispatch an emergency charging vehicle for on-the-spot charging or arrange a tow truck to take your car to a nearby repair shop for charging. 2. If the battery dies in a residential area like your home and no spare battery is available, as long as you can find a charger, you can charge the car battery yourself. Depending on the situation, you can also remove the car battery and take it indoors for quick charging. Generally, using the quick charge mode for about ten minutes should provide enough power to start the car. Be careful when removing the battery to avoid damaging any wiring terminals. 3. If you have jumper cables in your car, you can seek help from passing vehicles or friends and relatives. Find a functioning car to assist. Connect the positive terminal of the assisting car's battery to the positive terminal of the dead battery, then connect the negative terminals of both batteries. After that, attempt to start the car with the dead battery. Once the car starts, disconnect the negative cable first, followed by the positive cable.

What is the function of automotive piston rings?

Here are the specific functions of automotive piston rings: 1. Sealing: This refers to sealing the combustion gases, preventing them from leaking from the combustion chamber into the crankcase, minimizing gas leakage to improve thermal efficiency. Gas leakage not only reduces engine power but also causes engine oil to deteriorate. 2. Oil regulation (oil control): It scrapes off excess lubricating oil from the cylinder walls while ensuring a thin oil film remains on the walls, guaranteeing proper lubrication for the cylinder, piston, and rings. In modern high-speed engines, the role of piston rings in controlling the oil film is emphasized. 3. Heat conduction: Piston rings transfer heat from the piston to the cylinder liner, serving a cooling function. In non-cooled pistons, 70-80% of the heat received by the piston crown is dissipated through the piston rings to the cylinder walls, while in cooled pistons, 30-40% of the heat is dissipated this way. 4. Support: Piston rings keep the piston centered in the cylinder, preventing direct contact between the piston and cylinder walls, ensuring smooth piston movement, reducing friction resistance, and preventing piston knocking. Generally, gasoline engines use two compression rings and one oil ring, while diesel engines typically use two compression rings and one oil ring.
