It is necessary to replace the clutch plates promptly. Severe wear of the clutch plates can lead to weak or slipping starts, insufficient power and slow speed when climbing hills, difficulty in acceleration, increased fuel consumption, high engine RPM with slow driving speed. The details are as follows: 1. Except for starting, stopping, and shifting gears, the foot should be kept off the clutch at other times: because keeping the clutch pressed for a long time will cause the clutch to be in a slipping state, accelerating the wear of the friction plates. This not only wastes fuel but can also cause the clutch pressure plate to burn in severe cases. Moreover, do not frequently use the clutch semi-engagement to control the vehicle speed, as it can easily lead to loss of control of the car. Especially when braking at high speed, if the clutch pedal is also pressed down, it is equivalent to coasting in neutral at high speed. 2. Clutch: The clutch is located in the flywheel housing between the engine and the transmission. The clutch assembly is fixed to the rear plane of the flywheel with screws, and the output shaft of the clutch is the input shaft of the transmission. During driving, the driver can press or release the clutch pedal as needed to temporarily separate or gradually engage the engine with the transmission, cutting off or transmitting the power input from the engine to the transmission. The clutch is a common component in mechanical transmission, which can separate or engage the transmission system at any time. Its basic requirements include: smooth engagement, quick and thorough separation; easy adjustment and repair; small outer dimensions; light weight; good wear resistance and sufficient heat dissipation capacity; easy and labor-saving operation. Commonly, they are divided into two types: jaw clutch and friction clutch.

What is the braking distance for a small car at 40 km/h during emergency braking?

Braking distance is directly proportional to the square of the speed and inversely proportional to the friction coefficient. The friction coefficient μ is related to various factors, with a general value of around 0.8. It can drop below 0.2 on rainy days and even lower on icy or snowy roads. Assuming a friction coefficient μ of 0.8, the braking distance at a speed of 40 km/h is 7.9 meters. Rust on car brake discs is a normal phenomenon. Here is a detailed introduction about it: 1. Slight rust: Minor rust often occurs, such as after the car is left in the rain overnight or when it doesn't dry properly after washing. In such cases, continuous braking during driving can help remove the rust, as the brake disc rubs against the brake caliper during braking, and the rust will be worn off after multiple applications of the brakes. 2. Severe rust: If the brake disc has severe rust, the entire surface of the brake disc will be covered with a relatively thick layer of rust. Stubborn rust can also accelerate the wear of brake pads, so it's necessary to take the car to a repair shop to have the brake disc polished.

Can a C1 license be directly upgraded to B2 now?

C1 license holders can upgrade to B2 after one year, and to B1 after three years, but the upgrade must be processed at the location of their household registration. Requirements for upgrading from C1 to B2: Hold a C1 driver's license for more than one year, with no full-point record in the most recent scoring cycle. Age must be between 21 and 50 years old. Naked eye or corrected vision must reach 5.0 on the logarithmic visual acuity chart. The upgrade to B2 can only be processed at the location of household registration. Relevant information about the driver's license is as follows: 1. Introduction: The People's Republic of China Motor Vehicle Driver's License, referred to as the driver's license, is a necessary certificate for motor vehicle drivers in accordance with the laws of the People's Republic of China. 2. Examination content: The test subjects include traffic regulations and related knowledge, field driving, road driving (including safe and civilized driving), etc.

Can Leapmotor Survive?

Leapmotor is expected to go public by the end of next year or the year after. Here are the details: 1. Data shows: In October, Leapmotor sold 1,743 units, a 66% increase from the previous month. The Leapmotor T03, launched in May, can be considered the main sales model, with 1,681 units sold in October. In other words, the so-called "two-door sports car" Leapmotor S01 only sold 62 units in October. "The total sales target for 2020 is 50,000 units, with the S01 aiming for 20,000 units and the T03 for 30,000 units. Leapmotor aims to rank among the top ten new energy vehicle manufacturers. 2. Introduction to Leapmotor: In 2019, Leapmotor's first model, the S01, was launched. With highlights such as a 0-100 km/h acceleration in 6.9 seconds, finger vein recognition unlocking, facial recognition start, standard intelligent parking, frameless doors, a smart starry sky cockpit, and dual-screen linkage, it certainly captured the attention of consumers.

Can You Take the Driving Test (Subject 3) in the Rain?

You can take the driving test (Subject 3) in the rain. During rainy conditions, it is important to control your speed, driving slightly slower than during regular training sessions. For the on-road test in the rain, the examiner will also be concerned about driving safety, so safety comes first, and the test is secondary. Do not close the car windows too tightly, as this can cause fogging inside the vehicle, obstructing visibility and affecting judgment accuracy. Below is an introduction to the content of the Subject 3 test: 1. The road driving skills test for Subject 3 generally includes: preparation before starting, simulated lighting test, starting, driving straight, gear shifting operations, changing lanes, pulling over, proceeding straight through intersections, turning left at intersections, turning right at intersections, crossing pedestrian crosswalks, passing school zones, passing bus stops, meeting other vehicles, overtaking, making U-turns, and driving at night. 2. The safe and civilized driving knowledge test generally includes: requirements for safe and civilized driving operations, safe driving knowledge under adverse weather and complex road conditions, emergency handling methods for situations like tire blowouts, and post-accident handling knowledge.

Should You Listen to Music with the Engine Off or On?

Do not use the car audio system to listen to music after the engine is turned off. Car owners should be aware that when the engine is off, it does not drive the generator to charge the battery, so the battery remains in a discharging state. Listening to music in the car under these conditions will lead to battery depletion. Technical indicators of car audio systems include: 1. Output Power: Most current head units indicate music power, typically ranging between 40W and 60W, and the power should not be too high. 2. Frequency Response: The human ear can hear frequencies ranging from 20Hz to 20KHz, so this indicator should at least cover this range, and the wider, the better. 3. Signal-to-Noise Ratio: This refers to the ratio of music signal to noise. High-end car audio systems generally have a ratio above 90DB, and the higher this value, the better. 4. Harmonic Distortion: This indicator reflects the fidelity of sound reproduction. The lower the value, the higher the fidelity, and the better the audio effect.
