After starting the Corolla, press the brake and shift to D gear to drive without needing to change gears. Here is some knowledge about the Corolla: 1. Introduction: The Corolla, formerly known as the 'Corolla' in some translations, is a brand under Toyota Motor Corporation. The Corolla is equipped with Michelin 215/45-R17 tires, TRD-Sportivo high-performance shock absorbers, TRD-TF4 17-inch sport rims, reinforced clutch, and high-performance brake pads to ensure ideal sports performance. 2. Space: The Corolla has been lengthened in terms of body size, with a wheelbase of 2700mm after the extension. In terms of seating space, a tester with a height of 177cm adjusted the front seat to the lowest position, with one fist of headroom. When the tester moved to the rear seat, there was 2 fingers of headroom and 1 fist and 3 fingers of legroom. The floor bulge in the middle of the Corolla's rear seat is very small.

I've been driving a Corolla automatic transmission for several years and find this car super easy to get started with. The first step is to sit in the driver's seat, fasten the seat belt, and then start the engine: turn the key or press the one-touch start button. After starting, make sure to press the brake pedal with your foot—this is a crucial safety step, otherwise the gear won't move. Next, shift the gear lever from P (Park) to D (Drive), remembering to press the brake pedal firmly before shifting. After releasing the brake, gently press the accelerator, and the car will move smoothly. When parking, first press the brake to bring the car to a complete stop, then shift back to P, and engage the handbrake or electronic parking brake. Throughout the process, there's no need to worry about the clutch or shifting gears—automatic transmission saves a lot of hassle, but you must be careful not to let the car roll, especially when parking on a slope. I also often remind myself to check tire pressure and fuel levels for a more worry-free drive.

What does car key upgrade mean?

Key upgrade only refers to software upgrade, the hardware remains the original car key. Below are the relevant introductions: 1. Mechanical keys: Currently, car keys are divided into two types, one without an anti-theft chip and another with an anti-theft chip. Keys without anti-theft chips are commonly found in some low-end car models, and they don't even have a remote control, which is now quite rare. Since they are mechanical keys without anti-theft chips or remote controls, duplicating this type of key is very convenient and quick. 2. Anti-theft keys: Keys with anti-theft chips are naturally much more advanced. Besides the mechanical part of the key needing to match, the key also needs to be reprogrammed so that the code of the key chip completely matches the code of the engine's anti-theft system to start the engine.

What Causes Engine Timing Chain Noise?

Engine timing chain noise can be caused by several factors including lack of tension in the chain tensioner, elongated timing chain, abnormal wear of the chain guide, or issues with the timing sprocket. The primary function of the timing chain is to drive the engine's valve train, ensuring the intake and exhaust valves open and close at the proper times to allow normal cylinder air intake and exhaust. Solutions for engine timing chain noise: To prevent excessive clearance due to chain wear, the system is equipped with an automatic chain tensioner. This tensioner operates using oil pressure. When there's a malfunction in the lubrication system causing abnormal oil pressure, excessive chain clearance may occur, resulting in noise. Timely inspection and repair are necessary to prevent excessive clearance that could lead to chain skipping and engine damage. Typically, noise caused by low oil pressure is more noticeable at idle and diminishes when accelerating.
