I've been driving a Civic for two years and have mostly relied on a data cable for screen mirroring. First, check if your car model supports CarPlay or Android Auto—most mid-to-high trim 10th and 11th generation models do. For iPhones, simply plug the original cable into the USB port in the center console, and the car’s infotainment system will automatically prompt you—just tap 'Agree' to enable screen mirroring. Remember to keep your phone’s Bluetooth on, as the first connection might require pairing. For Android phones, you’ll need to install the Android Auto app beforehand. Navigation and music can be directly mirrored to the car’s display, which is much more stable than using a phone mount. Don’t skimp on the data cable—use one certified by the manufacturer. I had frequent disconnections with a generic cable before, but switching back to the original cable solved the issue completely.

What are the vehicle warning lights?

Here are the introductions to vehicle warning lights: 1. Teapot: Engine Oil Warning Light: When illuminated, it indicates the engine oil level and pressure are below standard. Continued driving may cause engine lubrication failure and severe wear. If the light remains on after adding oil, do not start the vehicle and contact roadside assistance immediately. 2. Thermometer: Coolant Temperature Warning: This light displays the temperature of the engine coolant. 3. Irregular Square: Check Engine Light: This yellow indicator shows the engine's operational status. It illuminates during ignition self-check and should turn off after starting. If it stays on, the engine system may have a malfunction. 4. Exclamation Mark: Brake System Warning Light: First check if the parking brake is fully released. If the light persists, inspect brake fluid level or pad thickness. Drive cautiously to the nearest repair shop if braking power remains normal. 5. Big and Small Circles: Power Steering Warning Light: Indicates power steering system failure, which may significantly reduce or eliminate steering assistance, creating driving hazards. 6. Door/Hood Ajar Warning: Driving with unsecured doors/hood may cause them to open unexpectedly due to wind force. 7. Bracket Exclamation Mark: Tire Pressure Warning: Signals low tire pressure or possible puncture. Inspect tires immediately. 8. Large Square: Battery Warning Light: This yellow indicator should turn off after self-check. Continuous illumination indicates battery issues that may prevent engine start. 9. ABS Warning Light: This yellow light should illuminate during self-check. If it doesn't light up or stays on, the ABS system may be faulty. 10. Electronic Stability Control: When continuously illuminated, it indicates the system is turned off; when off, the system is active.

How to Apply Car Rain Guards?

Clean the rearview mirror thoroughly and wet it with water. The rain guard film for rearview mirrors has excellent hydrophobic properties, effectively preventing rainwater from adhering. Peel off the adhesive side of the waterproof film and apply it to the center of the rearview mirror. High-quality films offer excellent clarity and also feature waterproof and anti-fog functions. Simply remove the surface layer. When installing the rearview mirror rain guard film, incorrect application or improper placement with trapped air bubbles can impair rearview visibility.

What engine is used in the GAC Trumpchi GS4?

The engine of the GAC Trumpchi GS4 is independently developed and produced by Guangzhou Automobile Group Passenger Vehicle Co., Ltd., and is a domestically manufactured engine. The engine model of the GAC Trumpchi GS4 is A415J1, with a maximum power of 124 kW, a maximum torque of 265 Nm, and a maximum horsepower of 169. For daily maintenance of the GAC Trumpchi GS4 engine, the following methods can be used: Use lubricating oil of appropriate quality grade. For gasoline engines, SD--SF grade gasoline engine oil should be selected based on the additional devices of the intake and exhaust systems and usage conditions; for diesel engines, CB--CD grade diesel engine oil should be selected based on mechanical load, with the selection standard not lower than the requirements specified by the manufacturer. Regularly change the engine oil and filter. The quality of any grade of lubricating oil will change during use. After a certain mileage, the performance deteriorates, which can cause various problems for the engine. To avoid failures, the oil should be changed regularly based on usage conditions, and the oil level should be kept moderate. When the oil passes through the fine holes of the filter, solid particles and viscous substances in the oil accumulate in the filter. If the filter is clogged and the oil cannot pass through the filter element, the filter element may burst or the safety valve may open, allowing the oil to bypass through the bypass valve and bring contaminants back to the lubrication area, accelerating engine wear and increasing internal pollution. Regularly clean the crankcase. During engine operation, high-pressure unburned gases, acids, moisture, sulfur, and nitrogen oxides from the combustion chamber enter the crankcase through the gap between the piston rings and cylinder walls, mixing with metal powder from component wear to form sludge. When the amount is small, it remains suspended in the oil; when the amount is large, it precipitates from the oil, clogging the filter and oil holes, making engine lubrication difficult and causing wear. Regularly use a radiator cleaner to clean the radiator. Removing rust and scale not only ensures the normal operation of the engine but also extends the overall lifespan of the radiator and engine.

What to Do When a Car Sunroof Leak Causes Water Accumulation in the Carpet?

First, remove the rubber plug from the sunroof drainage pipe to reduce the risk of blockage in the drainage system. If a sunroof leak leads to water accumulation in the carpet, first assess the severity of the waterlogging. Since there is usually a thick layer of soundproofing material beneath the carpet, once water accumulates, it becomes very difficult to dry. Roll down all windows, open the sunroof and all doors to ensure maximum air circulation inside the car, and leave it exposed to the sun for several days. Use a blower, maintaining a certain distance, and alternately apply cold and hot air to the waterlogged area. However, this is a very time-consuming process. Seek professional assistance. Technicians will remove and dry the entire carpet and may also bake the interior to check if the water accumulation has affected the car's electrical circuits.
