Transmission gear grinding refers to abnormal noises from the car's transmission area and a jerky sensation during gear shifting. Below is additional information on transmission gear grinding: 1. Gear grinding occurs when two metal gears collide harshly, accelerating wear on the gear teeth crowns. Over time and with repeated occurrences, the square tooth crowns become rounded, leading to incomplete engagement after shifting gears. Slight vibrations can then cause the gear to slip out, necessitating a major transmission overhaul. 2. To avoid transmission gear grinding: Fully depress the clutch pedal; engaging only halfway can cause severe reverse gear grinding. If the clutch is not fully depressed, the synchronizer cannot handle the large speed difference, resulting in significant synchronizer wear.

Will I be fined and penalized for driving over the guide line when exiting the highway?

Driving over the guide line on the highway will indeed result in penalty points, typically a fine and 3 penalty points. Here is the relevant information: 1. Definition of guide line: A guide line is a type of road marking designed to ensure vehicles follow the designated path without violating traffic rules by crossing the line. All drivers must correctly identify guide lines and practice safe and civilized driving. 2. Purpose of guide line: The white grid lines are guide lines, usually white V-shaped or diagonal lines set according to the intersection's terrain, indicating that vehicles must drive along the prescribed route without crossing or driving over the lines. Guide lines are primarily used at wide, irregular, or complex intersections, ramp entrances of interchanges, or other special locations.

What is the maximum speed limit when driving downhill?

When driving downhill on steep slopes, turning, or making U-turns, the maximum speed should not exceed 30 kilometers per hour. Here are more relevant details: 1. Regarding uphill driving: When parking on an uphill slope, apply the brakes slightly later than on flat roads. This is because the vehicle's speed naturally decreases due to slope resistance when driving uphill, resulting in a shorter braking distance compared to flat roads. Therefore, braking should be slightly delayed compared to flat road conditions. 2. Normal driving: During regular driving, the service brake (foot brake) is typically used to slow down or stop while moving forward. Once the vehicle comes to a complete stop, the parking brake (handbrake) should be applied to prevent the vehicle from rolling forward or backward.

What is the tire size of the JAC Refine S3?

Refine S3 is a compact SUV under JAC Motors, with 19 models currently on sale, all equipped with 201/55-R16 wheel specifications. Below is relevant information about car tires: 1. Functions of tires: Support the entire weight of the vehicle, bear the load of the car, and transmit forces and moments in other directions; transmit traction and braking torque to ensure good adhesion between the wheels and the road surface, improving the car's power, braking, and passability; work with the car suspension to mitigate impacts during driving. 2. Tire lifespan: The lifespan of tires is related to many factors, such as climate, road conditions, driving habits, installation, maintenance, etc. According to international regulations, if the tires are used normally, they must be replaced when the tread depth wears down to 1.6 mm.

Is it safer to park in an underground garage or on the road during heavy rain?

Parking on the ground is generally safer during heavy rain, as underground garages may be at risk of flooding. However, this depends on the adequacy of the garage's drainage system. Below are some key points regarding vehicle water exposure: 1. Do not restart the engine: If the engine stalls during water exposure, immediately activate the hazard lights, turn off the engine, and remove the key. Never attempt to restart the engine, as this can cause severe and irreparable damage, which may not be covered by insurance. 2. Ensure vehicle sealing: If the vehicle is stationary in a flooded garage or parking lot, lock the car and avoid starting the engine. Take all possible measures to seal the vehicle effectively.

Can a pinhole leak in a tire be repaired?

Tire pinhole leaks can be repaired. Here is detailed information about tire repair: 1. Principle: The principle of car tire repair is to use glue for vulcanization (the bonding of rubber relies on vulcanization, including the combination of the tire tread and the tire body), allowing the repair patch to chemically bond with the tire rubber layer to cover the hole. 2. Method: Cold repair glue can bond the patch and the tire through a vulcanization reaction without heating, so when repairing a tire, more glue is not necessarily better—just the right amount is sufficient. Hot repair is necessary because non-cold repair glue is used, and heating is required during the repair process to promote vulcanization, typically using an electric iron-like device for heating.
