Can't tell the difference between the 2016 and 2019 Tiida models? I learned from my car-buying experience. The 2016 model has a more conservative front fascia design, with a smaller grille and halogen headlights, making it less eye-catching. The 2019 model, however, features a significant upgrade—a wider grille, LED daytime running lights, and a more stylish appearance. Inside, the 2019 model has a slightly larger infotainment screen with much faster response times, plus softer and more comfortable seat materials. The taillights on the 2019 model also have sharper lines. Driving-wise, the 2019 model feels lighter in steering. When buying a used car, I’d recommend friends to compare these details carefully, especially noting the trendy new metallic blue color option. Safety-wise, the 2019 model likely includes more assist systems, like automatic emergency braking. In short, checking real photos or test-driving at dealerships makes it easy to spot the differences.

As a Tiida enthusiast, I pay special attention to design innovations. The 2016 model features a relatively rounded silhouette with a low-key front grille, and its halogen headlights appear somewhat dated. The 2019 model underwent a dynamic makeover, showcasing angular bumpers, LED headlights integrated with daytime running lights, exuding a strong sense of technology. Inside, the touchscreen was upgraded to a larger size with smoother responsiveness, ultra-fast Bluetooth connectivity, and compatibility with the CarPlay system. Safety features are a highlight, with the 2019 model standardizing multiple warning systems such as blind-spot monitoring. The wheel design of the 2019 model is more eye-catching. In terms of driving experience, the 2019 model's suspension is tuned for greater stability, with precise steering. There's also a much wider selection of colors. These evolutions position the 2019 model at the forefront of trends, offering comprehensive improvements from appearance to handling.

I think distinguishing between the 2016 and 2019 Tiida models is actually quite simple using the old methods. The 2016 version has more ordinary headlights and grille, resembling the older design; while the 2019 model features a refreshed look with more eye-catching headlights and a slightly larger front panel. Inside, the 2019 model has softer seat cushions and better-quality materials. The production year is directly marked on the vehicle side or registration documents - 16 means 2016 production, and 19 means 2019. They drive similarly, though the 2019 version might be slightly quieter. No need to memorize complex details; just check the body color or ask the owner about the production year when viewing the car. Simple and reliable, no brainpower wasted.

Should You Engage the Handbrake or Neutral First When Parking?

The correct parking procedure for an automatic transmission vehicle should be: press the brake → shift into gear → engage the handbrake → turn off the engine → shift into parking gear. In other words, after stopping, engage the handbrake first before shifting into neutral. Below is relevant information: 1. Auxiliary Brake: The professional term for the handbrake is the auxiliary brake. Unlike the main braking system, it uses a steel cable connected to the rear brake shoes to apply braking force to the vehicle. Prolonged use of the handbrake can cause the steel cable to undergo plastic deformation. Since this deformation is irreversible, long-term use will reduce its effectiveness and increase the handbrake's travel distance. 2. Neutral Gear: Neutral gear typically refers to the state where the vehicle's gear lever is not engaged in any forward or reverse gear, completely disconnecting the transmission from the drive wheels. For manual transmissions, the neutral position is in the middle, while for automatic transmissions, it is marked with an "N".

What Are the Reasons for Windshield Washer Not Spraying Water?

Common causes for windshield washer not spraying water include: insufficient washer fluid level; incorrect washer fluid selection leading to freezing in cold weather, which may crack the washer fluid reservoir; malfunction of the washer pump causing it to stop working; or faults in the washer tubing and nozzles preventing water spray. When the windshield washer fails to spray, consider the following aspects: 1. Washer pump burnout: The washer pump might be burnt out. To check this, keep the vehicle stationary, turn on the washer switch, and listen for the pump's sound in a quiet environment. If the pump doesn't operate, it certainly won't spray water to clean the windshield. 2. Empty washer reservoir: Pay attention to simple maintenance or operations. In fact, car manufacturers have detailed in the user manual some basic "issues" that owners can maintain themselves. If individuals learn and master these, such "unnecessary" "mistakes" can be avoided. 3. Wiring issues: Possible causes include wiring faults, blown fuses, or other circuit-related problems preventing the washer pump from functioning, hence no water spray. 4. Nozzle blockage: Nozzles may get clogged due to dust ingress, poor water quality, among other reasons. Of course, poor nozzle quality can also lead to no water spray.

What brand is CENTARA tires?

CENTARA is the Speedline tire brand of Shandong Zhongyi Rubber Co., Ltd. Shandong Zhongyi Rubber is a research and manufacturing enterprise specializing in the production of high-performance semi-steel radial tires, all-steel radial tires, steel wire rope core and fabric core rubber conveyor belts. It owns tire brands such as Leluchi, Speedline, JOYROAD, CENTARA, and ARDENT. The company's radial tires cover more than 500 models across 18 series, with SUV, UHP, and snow tires as the main products. The products are characterized by high cost performance, low carbon and environmental protection, quietness and comfort, and safety and reliability. The company possesses run-flat tire production technology and patented puncture-proof and leak-proof safety tire production technology. The products are sold throughout China and exported to more than 130 countries and regions, including Europe, America, Africa, Southeast Asia, the Middle East, the United States, Japan, Australia, and India. When using CENTARA tires in daily life, pay attention to the following points: Regularly check the tire surface for cracks, deformations, and other defects. Due to driving wear, the tread pattern grooves gradually become shallow. If the pattern is worn flat, it will lose its drainage and anti-slip functions, and the car's performance will be greatly reduced. Small cracks may seem insignificant, but they can be a hidden danger for tire blowouts at high speeds. In addition, immediately remove pebbles from the grooves. Try to park on flat ground. Avoid parking the car on roads with thick, sharp, or pointed stones. The car should not be parked near or in contact with petroleum products, acids, or other materials related to rubber deterioration. After parking, the driver should not turn the steering wheel, as this will accelerate tire wear. Do not splash water for cooling. In hot weather or during high-speed driving, tires are prone to overheating, and the air pressure will increase. At this time, you should stop to dissipate heat. It is strictly forbidden to deflate for pressure reduction or to splash water for cooling, as this may cause abnormal aging of the tread rubber. Avoid sudden braking. Try to minimize frequent use of brakes and sudden braking to prevent accelerated tread wear caused by dragging between the tires and the ground.

Can passenger car ETC lanes be used by small vehicles?

Passenger car ETC lanes can be used by small vehicles because ETC tags do not distinguish between passenger cars and small vehicles. However, when registering an ETC tag, you will need to select whether the vehicle type is a passenger car or a small vehicle. Benefits of installing ETC: Time-saving: Eliminates the hassle of waiting in queues; Green and eco-friendly: Promotes low-carbon travel, as vehicles can pass through toll stations without stopping, reducing noise and exhaust emissions and minimizing pollution; Reduced wear and tear: Saves costs by decreasing the frequency of vehicle starts and stops, lowering wear and fuel consumption. Users can also enjoy a 5% discount on toll fees; Improved efficiency: ETC lanes can theoretically increase vehicle throughput by 2-3 times, making traditional ETC systems more updated, faster, and more technologically advanced. Compared to license plate payment, ETC technology is more mature and advantageous. The installation process for ETC devices is as follows: Upon receiving the device, first check whether the ETC card and the electronic tag (OBU) are damaged. Press the anti-tamper button on the back of the OBU; a red light will briefly illuminate, and the OLED screen will display "Tag Invalid" or "Please Insert Card," indicating the device is functioning properly. Clean the front windshield to ensure the surface is smooth, clean, and dry. Then, peel off the adhesive backing of the OBU and attach it to the installation position. Press firmly for 2-3 minutes to remove any air bubbles. Insert the ETC card with the front side facing the driver and the back side facing the windshield. The chip should be inserted into the OBU device.
