You can measure the length of the wiper blade rubber strip with a ruler. Of course, some vehicle models have the size indicated in the user manual. The wiper blade refers to the strip structure installed in front of the windshield, composed of components such as the motor, reducer, four-bar linkage, wiper arm spindle, and wiper blade assembly. Here are some details about wiper blades: 1. The function of the wiper blade is to clear rain, snow, and dust from the windshield that obstructs visibility. 2. The power source of the wiper blade comes from the motor, which is the core of the entire wiper system. 3. The lifespan of wiper blades varies depending on their quality and usage environment, but generally ranges from 2 to 4 years. 4. Conversion between wiper blade sizes in inches and metric units: 14"--350mm, 16"--400mm, 18"--450mm, 20"--500mm, 21"--525mm, 22"--550mm, 24"--600mm, 26"--650mm. That is, for every inch increase in wiper blade size, the length increases by 25mm.

Is Rust in the Trunk Normal?

Rust in the trunk is a normal occurrence. Here are some precautions to avoid rust: Car chassis: The car chassis is very low and is subjected to sand and stone splashes during driving, uneven road surfaces scraping the bottom, and corrosion from rain and snow, which greatly shortens its service life. It is recommended to not only dry the chassis after washing the car but also to apply anti-rust treatment to the car chassis. Trunk: The car trunk contains items such as spare tires, luggage, and bottled water. During the rainy summer season, the temperature difference between the inside and outside can accumulate a lot of moisture, which can corrode the trunk over time. Car owners should regularly inspect the trunk, frequently air out the trunk carpet, and can also place some desiccants in the trunk to keep it dry. Braking system: After rain or car washing, a large amount of water vapor and moisture can accumulate in the brake fluid reservoir and is easily absorbed by the car's brake fluid. Some brake fluids absorb water severely, causing water droplets to vaporize at high temperatures during braking, leading to brake failure or even complete loss of braking. If it is found that the car's brake fluid has absorbed a significant amount of water, it is advisable to immediately go to a professional repair shop to remove the water.

Should the clutch be pressed when starting a manual transmission car?

When starting a manual transmission car, you need to press both the clutch and the brake, while an automatic transmission only requires pressing the brake. Here are some precautions for starting a manual transmission car: Gear position: Before starting, ensure the gear is in neutral and the handbrake is engaged to secure the car on the ground and prevent it from rolling when starting. Press both the brake and clutch pedals simultaneously: For safety reasons, the engine will only allow starting when the driver presses the brake pedal. Preventing rolling: After starting, it is advisable to keep both feet on the clutch and brake pedals as a habit.

Why was the First Examination Site in Guandu District Closed?

The closure of the first examination site in Guandu District is due to continuous heavy rainfall, resulting in significant water accumulation. Below are the specific details of the new driving test regulations: Adjustment of test scheduling time: For obtaining a small automatic transmission vehicle driver's license, the interval for scheduling the third subject test has been shortened from 30 days after passing the first subject test to 20 days; for upgrading to a large or medium-sized passenger or truck driver's license, the scheduling interval for the third subject test has been reduced from 40 days after passing the first subject test to 30 days. Adjustment of cross-regional subject test attempts: For applying for a small car driver's license, the number of times allowed to apply for changing the test location has been adjusted from once to no more than three times, to meet the public's demand for cross-regional testing. Reduction of proxy materials: If applicants cannot promptly handle the replacement or renewal of their driver's license or other traffic management services, they can authorize others to handle it through the Traffic Management 12123 platform without the need to provide a paper authorization certificate.

What Causes Sesame-Sized Paint Chips on the Hood?

Paint chips on the hood are usually caused by improper maintenance or minor collisions. You can first use scratch wax, applying it with a waxing sponge to polish the scratched area, followed by gloss-enhancing wax to make the paint appear shinier. Precautions for Car Paint Touch-Ups: Before repainting, if the scratched area is deep, you must first sand off the damaged paint and any rust on the metal surface. Then, apply filler to level the area. Only after the filler has dried can you proceed with repainting. If left untreated, rust on the metal panel under the scratch may cause the new paint to bubble or peel. When using a touch-up pen, sand or polish the area to be repainted before applying the paint. Advantages of Automotive Electro-Luminescent Paint: Automotive electro-luminescent paint changes the car's color and makes the body appear brighter. Utilizing advanced global paint-spraying technology and remote-control systems, it is an upgraded version of traditional luminescent coatings. This innovative product offers longer and more stable illumination, better light decay resistance, stronger weather resistance, and excellent performance in extreme temperatures. Composition of Automotive Electro-Luminescent Paint: Electro-luminescent paint consists of four layers: a base layer, a dielectric layer, a luminescent layer, and a conductive layer. It can be sprayed onto various materials, including plastic, metal, glass, and carbon fiber, and adheres well to curved or irregular surfaces without chipping. Even when electrified and glowing, it remains safe to touch without risk of electric shock.

What Causes the Car to Move Backward When in Drive?

Because the engine's power and the reverse motion resistance of the transmission's drive shaft are absorbed by the torque converter. Below are specific details regarding possible causes: Possible reasons: It could be due to a faulty transmission gear position sensor, valve body malfunction, or shift mechanism failure. Essentially, when the car rolls backward on a slope, it means the power is insufficient for the car to climb the slope, causing it to roll back. Alternatively, if the car is heavily loaded or fully loaded, the resistance might exceed the engine's output power. Solution: Automatic transmissions generally have a delay of more than 1 second! After shifting into drive, do not release the brake immediately to prevent the car from rolling backward. If rolling occurs, the correct action is to brake promptly. If equipped with a hill start assist system, wait for the system to function properly before starting again.
