Methods to determine if there is a problem with the transmission are as follows: 1. Transmission Jerking Fault Symptoms: During driving, the impact, vibration, and jerking sensation produced when the transmission shifts gears are relatively strong, or there is a feeling of hesitation or jerking during rapid acceleration. Fault Cause: Due to excessively high automatic transmission fluid temperature, stubborn dirt and impurities appear inside the transmission, forming blockages in the valve body, causing the solenoid valve to move poorly and fail to sequentially adjust the oil pressure, leading to transmission jerking. 2. Transmission Noise Fault Symptoms: When the car is idling, driving, or under high-load driving conditions, abnormal noises or even loud noises are heard from the transmission, and there are irregular, dull sounds during gear shifts. Fault Cause: Under prolonged high-temperature conditions, the anti-wear and lubrication performance of the transmission fluid declines, causing wear or severe wear on components such as bearings and gears inside the transmission, or damage to the gear sides. 3. Transmission Slipping Fault Symptoms: While driving, when the accelerator is pressed, the engine can be heard revving (similar to the feeling of pressing the accelerator when the gear is in P or N), but the car does not show a noticeable increase in speed and has poor acceleration; another situation is that the car drives normally on flat roads but lacks power when going uphill, and the engine speed is very high. Fault Cause: The hydraulic fluid level is too high, producing a large number of bubbles when violently stirred by the planetary gear set during operation; the friction plates of the clutch or brake, or the brake band, are excessively worn or burnt.

Are 4S repair shops closed during National Day?

4S repair shops will have staff on duty during National Day. Here are precautions for vehicle repairs at 4S shops: Carefully inspect and verify exterior damage: Before repairs, jointly examine the vehicle's exterior with the shop to identify existing dents and scratches, preventing accidental damage during maintenance. Supervise repairs when possible: For components like front bumpers or headlights, personally retrieve parts from the counter and oversee installation. Special components like xenon headlights require no supervision. Avoid non-OEM parts mixing. Request invoices post-repair: 4S shops typically maintain repair records and provide invoices, serving as the best guarantee for vehicle owners.

How Long Does the Battery in a Keyless Start Key Last?

Keyless start key batteries can last up to 4 years. Avoid contact with metal objects: Many car owners like to attach heavy ornaments to their car keys, and some male owners even string a large bunch of other keys together. During the bumps and jolts of driving, excessive weight on the key can cause wear and tear on the ignition switch's limit components and contact points through the lock cylinder, leading to looseness and premature damage. Over time, this can result in the engine failing to start or stalling due to power loss while driving. Do not store with other keys: Keys are metal objects, and if a smart key comes into contact with or is covered by metal items, it may malfunction.

Are Rear Fog Lights Mandatory?

Rear fog lights are mandatory. Introduction to Fog Lights: Fog lights generally refer to automotive fog lights. Automotive fog lights are installed at the front and rear of the vehicle and are used to illuminate the road and provide safety warnings during rainy or foggy weather conditions. They enhance visibility for the driver and other traffic participants. Structure of Fog Lights: In addition to the front high beams, low beams, headlights, and parking lights, and the rear running lights and brake lights, most vehicles also have a set of anti-fog lights installed in inconspicuous locations at the rear. Rear fog lights are red signal lights installed at the rear of the vehicle to make the vehicle more visible to other road users behind in low-visibility conditions such as fog, rain, or dust. They emit a higher light intensity than the tail lights.
