The reason the rear seats of the Prado do not fold flat is that the backrest portion of the rear seats is approximately 4-5 centimeters higher than the trunk floor. The solution is to customize a mattress with a matching thickness based on the seat condition and place it on top, which can resolve the unevenness issue. The interior and details of the Prado are as follows: 1. Interior: The center console and the area around the driver's seat concentrate most of the vehicle's control functions. The large four-spoke multifunction steering wheel, wrapped in genuine leather and combined with wood trim, significantly enhances the vehicle's premium feel. The Prado also features a self-illuminating instrument panel with a dual-dial design. 2. Details: The two large sun visors not only come equipped with vanity mirrors and lighting but also feature an integrated sun visor extension design, providing added convenience and sparing front passengers from the discomfort of sun exposure. Driving at night is inevitable for Prado owners, and the auto-dimming rearview mirror effectively improves nighttime driving safety.

How often should car tires be replaced under normal circumstances?

There is no fixed time for how often car tires should be replaced, as it depends on the condition of the tires. Under normal use, tires generally need to be replaced after 4 to 5 years or 60,000 to 80,000 kilometers. By this time, the rubber of the tires has begun to age, and continuing to use them increases the risk of damage or blowouts. Tires are often used under complex and demanding conditions, enduring various deformations, loads, forces, and extreme temperatures while driving. Therefore, they must possess high load-bearing capacity, traction performance, and cushioning performance, as well as high wear resistance, flexibility, and low rolling resistance and heat generation.

What speed levels do the letters on tires represent?

The speed levels represented by the letters on tires are as follows: 1. Q stands for 160 kilometers per hour; 2. R stands for 170 kilometers per hour; 3. S stands for 180 kilometers per hour; 4. T stands for 190 kilometers per hour; 5. H stands for 210 kilometers per hour; 6. V stands for 240 kilometers per hour; 7. W stands for 270 kilometers per hour; 8. Y stands for 300 kilometers per hour; 9. Z stands for ZR speed above 240 kilometers per hour. Methods to protect tires: 1. Check if there are any attachments on the tires; 2. Check the tire pressure when the tires are cold; 3. Reduce driving speed promptly when road conditions are poor.

How to Determine the Position of Left and Right Wheels While Driving

Methods to determine the position of left and right wheels while driving: 1. When the extension line of the lane divider is about 10cm from the lower left corner of the windshield, the vehicle is approximately 50 to 60cm from the left lane; 2. For the right side distance, when the wiper spray nozzle overlaps with the lane divider, the vehicle is also roughly 50 to 60cm from the right lane. The wheel is the rotating component between the tire and the axle that bears the load, typically consisting of two main parts: the rim and the spokes. The rim is the part of the wheel that mounts and supports the tire, while the spokes are the supporting components between the axle and the rim on the wheel.

How to Identify the Production Date of Car Tires?

Method to check the production date of car tires: There is a rectangular oval on the sidewall of the tire, which contains a series of numbers and letters. Among them, a set of four digits represents the production date of the tire. The first two digits indicate the week of the year, while the last two digits represent the year. The normal service life of a tire is about 5 years. Beyond this period, the tire may experience aging, cracking, reduced load capacity, and an increased risk of blowouts. Within the normal service life, the tire should be replaced once it wears down to the raised markers in the tread grooves; otherwise, it may compromise driving safety. To protect car tires, it is also essential to adopt good driving practices, such as avoiding sudden braking and sharp steering, to extend the tire's lifespan.

Can I add engine oil myself if it's low?

You can add engine oil yourself if it's low. The reasons for low engine oil are: 1. Aging valve oil seals, where the rubber loses elasticity causing poor sealing, allowing oil to seep into the combustion chamber and burn; 2. Cylinder liner wear or insufficient piston ring tension; 3. Excessive clearance between piston rings and cylinder walls, improper piston ring installation, or degraded sealing, weakening the oil ring's oil scraping function; 4. Excessive wear between the guide and valve stem, allowing oil droplets from the valve cover to enter the combustion chamber through the gap while driving; 5. The crankcase ventilation valve sticking and failing to move, losing its function to control ventilation, causing excessive oil vapor in the crankcase to enter the intake pipe through the crankcase ventilation tube.
