Front-wheel drive and rear-wheel drive mainly differ in the following aspects: 1. Different driving methods: Front-wheel drive involves the engine driving the front wheels, pulling the entire vehicle forward; rear-wheel drive involves the engine driving the rear wheels, pushing the entire vehicle forward. 2. Price difference: Front-wheel drive vehicles are cheaper to manufacture, economical, and practical, but they are prone to understeer, making the driver often experience 'pushing' in turns; rear-wheel drive vehicles are slightly more expensive but offer more flexible handling and greater torque, though they have a tendency to oversteer. 3. Fuel consumption difference: Rear-wheel drive vehicles, due to the presence of a driveshaft and the addition of a differential, suffer from power loss efficiency, making them more fuel-consuming than front-wheel drive vehicles.

Do Brake Discs Need to Be Replaced Along with Brake Pads?

Brake discs and brake pads do not need to be replaced together. Here is some relevant information about brake discs and brake pads: 1. Whether to replace the brake disc depends on its thickness and wear condition. The brake disc is a crucial component of the braking system and is categorized by structure into solid brake discs and ventilated discs. 2. Brake pads, also known as brake linings, are key safety parts in a car's braking system, consisting of a steel plate, adhesive heat insulation layer, and friction block. Below are some maintenance methods for brake pads and brake discs: 1. Develop good driving habits. 2. Avoid emergency braking. 3. Regularly inspect brake pads and brake discs. 4. Check the thickness of the friction material. 5. Always use original equipment manufacturer (OEM) provided brake pads and brake discs when replacing them.

What Causes an Automatic Transmission Car to Stall?

Automatic transmission cars stall for the following reasons: 1. Automatic transmission models do not stall easily, whereas manual transmission models may stall frequently due to insufficient driving skills. However, it is not impossible for an automatic transmission car to stall. The main reason is the use of low-quality fuel (many gas stations sell impure fuel for excessive profits), which causes carbon buildup in the engine and leads to stalling. 2. Lack of skill: For new cars (automatic transmission), the main reason for stalling is insufficient driving proficiency. Another possibility is issues with the car's engine or fuel system, but for new cars, the likelihood of engine problems is low; most cases are related to fuel system issues. 3. Engine carbon buildup: For older models, aside from insufficient driving skills, the use of substandard fuel can cause carbon buildup in the engine, leading to stalling.

What Do You Learn at the Beginning of Subject 2?

Subject 2 mainly involves learning reverse parking into a garage, hill start and stop, parallel parking, curve driving, and right-angle turns. Reverse parking into a garage involves the following steps: first, enter the garage from the right side, then exit from the left, reverse back into the garage, and finally drive out to the right side of position 4 to complete the sequence. During the test, the vehicle must not cross the boundary lines, stop midway, or take more than 4 minutes to complete the maneuver; otherwise, points will be deducted. Hill start and stop: The test requires the driver to bring the vehicle to a smooth stop before the designated stopping line on the slope. When stopping, ensure the vehicle is parallel to the solid line and within 30 cm. During the hill start, coordinate the clutch, accelerator, and handbrake carefully. Gradually increase the throttle while slowly releasing the clutch and handbrake. Releasing the handbrake too slowly or applying insufficient throttle may cause the engine to stall, while releasing it too quickly may lead to rolling back. Practice is essential to achieve a smooth start. Both stopping and starting on the slope require proper use of turn signals as per regulations. Parallel parking: The test requires the driver to correctly park the vehicle in a roadside garage on the right side. Throughout the maneuver, monitor the mirrors and activate the left turn signal before reversing. Curve driving: To develop the ability to steer and control the vehicle through curves, Subject 2 requires the driver to navigate two consecutive curves in one go. During the maneuver, use turn signals, check mirrors, and aim for a wide arc, paying special attention to the inner wheel difference to avoid touching the road edge lines. Right-angle turns: To develop the ability to steer accurately and judge the inner and outer wheel differences during sharp turns, Subject 2 requires the driver to navigate a right-angle turn in one smooth motion. Activate the turn signal, stay toward the outer side, and ensure the wheels do not touch the road edge lines or protruding points.

What Are the Three Guarantees for Tires?

The three guarantees refer to the warranty, replacement, and refund policies for sold products. Here are the relevant details: 1. Basic Policy for Tire Three Guarantees: Issues such as bead cracks, bulges, inner wire exposure, etc., are covered similarly to inner tube tires, provided that the tread depth is more than half. 2. Specific Claims Standards: If the remaining tread depth is over 70%, a new tire can be replaced for free; if the remaining tread depth is between 60%-69%, a new tire can be replaced at 30% of the factory price; if the remaining tread depth is between 50%-59%, a new tire can be replaced at 40% of the factory price.

What to Do If Your Car Gets Scratched While Parked at a 4S Shop?

If the vehicle gets scratched during its stay at a 4S shop, the owner can request the 4S shop to handle the repairs. More details are as follows: 1. In real life, if you accidentally scratch your beloved car, minor scratches on the paint surface are typically superficial and can be completely repaired by waxing. Use a compound to treat the area, wiping in straight lines, then apply wax—start with coarse wax followed by fine wax, moving in the same direction from the inside out. This method can nearly eliminate all fine scratches. 2. Of course, there's a more cost-effective method using toothpaste for repair. Gently apply it to the shallow scratches, then use a soft cotton cloth to wipe counterclockwise. After a few repetitions, not only will the scratches be reduced, but it will also prevent air from corroding the damaged paint. 3. For more severe scratches where the underlying primer color is visible, the treatment depends on the location of the damage. Generally, areas like the bumper, rearview mirrors, and some cars' wheel arches are made of engineering plastic and won't rust. However, if these severe scratches appear on other parts of the car body, a repaint will be necessary.
