The method to prevent stalling when starting on a slope is: First, lift your left foot (clutch pedal) slowly until the car begins to vibrate, then hold it steady. Gradually release the brake pedal. Once the front wheels start pulling the rear wheels, slowly release the clutch pedal completely. When preparing to start on a slope, after the engine starts, keep both the clutch and brake pedals depressed with your feet. Shift the gear into first, then release the handbrake. Gradually ease off the brake pedal with your right foot while monitoring the tachometer's RPM. When the tachometer shows around 2000 RPM and you hear a slight change in the engine sound, slowly release the clutch pedal with your left foot. Once you feel the car beginning to move, quickly release the brake pedal with your right foot while simultaneously fully releasing the clutch. Then, gently press the accelerator to give some gas, and the car will move up the slope.

What to do if the car radiator is leaking a little?

Sometimes due to frequent bumps, the radiator cap may become loose. Check if it's loose. Open the engine oil cap. If you find traces of emulsification in the oil, you'll need to replace the engine cylinder gasket. Add air pressure into the radiator. The leaking spot will show water leakage due to the air pressure, helping you locate the gap for repair.

What does the M gear in Corolla mean?

Corolla M gear stands for manual mode. There will also be a plus and minus sign next to it, which is used for shifting gears by pushing the gear lever forward or backward or using the steering wheel paddle shifters. "M+" and "M-" represent gear up and gear down, respectively. The number of gears depends on the type of the semi-automatic transmission. When to use the M gear in a car: when overtaking, going uphill or downhill, driving on highways, or driving on icy or snowy roads. When overtaking, you can use the M- gear to lower the gear, which provides higher torque, allowing the car to accelerate quickly in a short time. When driving uphill, you should use M- to keep the gear low, as the engine power is stronger in lower gears. When going downhill, you can use M+ to adjust the gear to 2-3, utilizing the engine's braking effect to slow down the vehicle without relying entirely on the brakes, thus improving driving safety. Additionally, using the M gear when descending steep slopes helps control the speed with the engine, preventing brake overheating and thermal fade. When driving on highways, you can manually use M+ to shift to a higher gear, maintaining a speed of 80-100 km/h for better fuel efficiency. When driving on icy or snowy roads, adjusting the gear to 2 using M+ can reduce wheel slippage.
