Observe the left rearview mirror and the sideline. When the rearview mirror just covers the sideline, immediately press the clutch and brake to stop. In other words, the most accurate point to stop after reversing into the space is the moment when the left rearview mirror just covers the sideline. During practice, you can ask the instructor to park the car in the parking space first, then get in the car yourself, adjust the seat and rearview mirror, and find your stopping point.

How to Break in a Manual Transmission Car?

Manual transmission car break-in methods are: 1. The engine is not recommended to run at high RPM. For gasoline engines, keep it between 1500 to 3500 RPM, and for diesel engines, between 1200 to 2500 RPM. Driving within these RPM ranges can significantly reduce carbon buildup; 2. Warm up the car at low RPM before starting to allow the engine to fully preheat. Once the engine oil reaches temperature and flows to all parts of the engine, the protective film from the oil will minimize component wear; 3. Avoid excessive load. Load has a significant impact on a new car, and it is recommended not to exceed 70% of the maximum payload; 4. Avoid long-distance high-speed driving, as this can cause the engine to overheat from prolonged operation and affect its lifespan. While driving at medium to low speeds for extended periods, you can occasionally drive at higher speeds, but it is recommended not to exceed 100 kilometers per hour.

Where is the car fuse located?

Car fuses are located inside the fuse box under the dashboard trim panel, and there is also a fuse box in the front engine compartment. Every car has a fuse box, which contains fuses and relays. The fuses serve to protect the electrical circuits. There is an indicator diagram on the cover of the car's fuse box, which shows the corresponding number and function of each fuse. In the car's electrical system, many electrical devices are connected by wires of different colors, among which the fuse is an essential component. The term "fuse" is a customary name, while the national standard refers to it as a "circuit breaker." The function of a fuse is to protect the circuit (wiring) and electrical devices. Car fuses can be divided into blade-type fuses, glass tube fuses, and bolt-type fuses.

What does it mean when the engine malfunction indicator light flashes?

When the engine malfunction indicator light flashes, it could indicate a fault in one of the engine components. The engine fault warning light is triggered by the ECU (Engine Control Unit), which controls all electronic devices in the engine, such as the electronic throttle, fuel injectors, alternator, fuel pump, etc. If any of these systems malfunction, the engine warning light will illuminate. A continuously flashing engine malfunction light is abnormal. Sometimes no specific issue may be detected during inspection, which could be caused by internal wiring problems in the engine or system malfunctions. The ECU might generate error codes during computation, leading to the illumination of the engine warning light. Such fault codes need to be cleared at an authorized 4S dealership.

What to Do If Water Enters the Engine?

The method to handle water entering the engine is to immediately contact a repair shop for inspection and replace parts as needed based on the actual situation. Do not restart the car after it stalls. During heavy rainfall, many roads may have deep water accumulation, so be very cautious about the depth of water on the road while driving. If the water depth exceeds 20 centimeters, avoid driving through it. After driving through water, multiple areas may be flooded, which could affect the performance of certain car components, and in severe cases, the car may not start normally. Check if the braking system has been flooded. Due to the strong adsorption force of the braking system, rainwater can easily enter the brake fluid, affecting braking performance. In severe cases, it may lead to brake failure. It is recommended to have a professional inspection at a repair shop after the rain.
