Only the losses from the current insurance accident should be considered, distinguishing between the losses from the current accident and those from non-current accidents, as well as normal maintenance losses versus insurance accident losses. If the damage neither affects the performance nor the appearance quality and can be restored with simple processes, repair should be prioritized. If the damage is mainly bending deformation (elastic deformation), it should be repaired; if the damage is mainly folding deformation (plastic deformation), it should be replaced.

What happens if the Honda crankshaft signal plate is installed backwards?

If installed backwards, it generally results in the inability to rotate the crankshaft (automatic transmissions may fail to install the fixing screws), and the car won't start. The methods for daily engine maintenance are as follows: 1. Regularly clean the crankcase: During engine operation, high-pressure unburned gases, acids, moisture, sulfur, and nitrogen oxides from the combustion chamber enter the crankcase through the gap between the piston rings and cylinder walls, mixing with metal particles from component wear to form sludge. Small amounts remain suspended in the oil, while larger amounts precipitate, clogging filters and oil passages, making engine lubrication difficult and causing wear. Additionally, oil oxidation at high temperatures forms varnish and carbon deposits that stick to pistons, increasing fuel consumption, reducing power, and in severe cases, causing piston rings to seize and cylinder scoring. Therefore, regularly use a high-efficiency, fast-acting cleaning agent for the lubrication system to clean the crankcase and maintain engine cleanliness. 2. Regularly remove carbon deposits from the car: During fuel combustion, carbon deposits are inevitable. Excessive carbon deposits can cause difficulties in starting, unstable idling, poor acceleration, backfiring during rapid acceleration, excessive exhaust emissions, and increased fuel consumption. These have many adverse effects on the engine, so it's important to prevent carbon buildup by driving at high speeds occasionally, increasing shift RPM appropriately, avoiding prolonged idling, and using clean gasoline. Good driving habits can reduce carbon deposits. 3. Regularly replace the coolant: The full name of coolant should be antifreeze coolant, which prevents the coolant from freezing in cold winter conditions, thereby avoiding radiator cracks and engine cylinder block or head damage. Many people think coolant is only for winter use, but it should be used year-round. In winter, it prevents freezing, and in summer, it prevents the engine from overheating. Original coolant typically needs replacement every 2 years or 60,000-80,000 km, after which annual replacement is recommended. When choosing coolant, select a product with a freezing point about 10°C lower than the lowest temperature in the vehicle's operating area. Always use the same type when adding coolant; mixing different types is not allowed.

What is the reason for the sudden disappearance of the Honda Civic's auto start-stop function?

The reasons for the sudden disappearance of the Honda Civic's auto start-stop function are as follows: 1. The battery power is too low or the voltage is insufficient: During engine shutdown, the engine cooling fan and in-car air conditioning require power to operate. 2. The engine coolant temperature is too high or too low. 3. The vehicle has not reached the state set by the driver: When the in-car air conditioning is turned on in summer, if the engine is turned off, the air conditioning compressor will not work, and the difference between the in-car temperature and the set temperature is too large, the auto start-stop system will restart the engine. 4. The start-stop function is turned off.
