The method for removing and installing the rearview mirror on a Corolla: 1. Use a plastic pry tool to gently pry along the edge seam to open the rearview mirror cover; 2. Press the front mirror to create a gap, then use a screwdriver to pry upward to release the mirror from the bracket; 3. The installation process follows the same steps in reverse; 4. The Corolla rearview mirror comes with a heating function, so remember to unplug the heating wire harness connector to avoid damage. The Corolla is the tenth-generation straight-line upgrade of the Toyota COROLLA, with body dimensions of 4540mm in length, 1760mm in width, and 1490mm in height. It is equipped with a 1.8L inline-four engine (2ZR type) featuring dual VVTi technology, paired with either a 6-speed manual transmission or a 4-speed automatic transmission.

What is the procedure for handling a full 12-point deduction on a driver's license?

The procedure for handling a full 12-point deduction on a driver's license is to participate in a 7-day traffic safety laws, regulations, and related knowledge training within 15 days, followed by a relevant examination. Upon passing the exam, the points will be cleared, and the driver's license will be returned. Process for handling vehicle violation point deductions: Bring your ID card, driver's license, and vehicle registration certificate to the violation processing office. Take the penalty decision notice to the designated bank to pay the fine (once the penalty decision notice is printed, the fine must be paid within 15 days. After 15 days, a 3% late fee will be charged daily, with the total late fee not exceeding the total fine amount). After paying the fine and obtaining the receipt, keep the receipt properly. Check the violation information online a few days later. If the violation information disappears, the receipt can be discarded. However, if the violation information remains online, take the payment receipt to the legal department of the traffic police team to explain the situation. After confirmation by the staff, the violation information will be directly deleted.

What Causes the Rear of the Car to Cross the Line During Parallel Parking?

The reason the rear of the car crosses the line during parallel parking is either starting to park too early or being too far from the line. You can drive forward a little more before stopping to ensure the car body is slightly closer to the parking space line. When parking, try to stay slightly to the right, which makes it easier to reverse into the parking space, while also paying attention to the distance between the front and rear. More details are as follows: 1. Definition of Parallel Parking: Parallel parking is part of the second subject in the driver's license test. It is increasingly common in urban areas, especially as parking spaces in formal lots become more limited. Many places now designate parking spaces along the sides of streets, creating "parallel parking spaces." 2. Changes: In the past, parallel parking used four poles placed on the ground to symbolize the four corners of the parking space. One criterion for successful parking was whether the vehicle entered the space without touching these poles. After the new traffic regulations were implemented, parallel parking no longer uses poles; instead, ground markings define the boundaries of the parking space. For students learning to drive with a C1 license, the length of the parallel parking space is 1.5 times the vehicle's length plus 1 meter. The vehicle must be driven parallel to the parking space, then reversed into the space in one continuous motion without stopping. As long as the car is parked within the boundaries without crossing the lines, it is considered a pass.

What Causes Low-Speed Jerking?

Transmission jerking is the impact sensation caused by the inertia of moving parts inside the engine. Below are the reasons for engine jerking: 1. Causes of engine jerking: During the process where the engine speed is either increased or decreased, if not handled properly, sudden changes in engine speed during gear shifts can cause the inertia of the engine's moving parts to react against the vehicle body. 2. Low-speed jerking: Many drivers experience this issue. When driving at low speeds, the gear frequently shifts between first and second, and the clutch repeatedly engages and disengages. If power transmission cannot be smoothly completed within a short time, common low-speed jerking occurs. Jerking sensations are normal during startup and low-speed driving, usually due to turbocharger engagement at low RPMs, which affects engine speed. 3. Upshift jerking: This is mostly caused by the transmission's response speed being insufficiently fast. The upshift speed cannot keep up with the throttle input, so the jerking sensation occurs at the moment of gear shift. 4. Downshift jerking: This is mostly due to the intervention of the energy recovery system. Once the driver releases the throttle pedal or presses the brake pedal, the generator immediately starts working, placing additional load on the engine. This affects the engine speed, causing it to be out of sync with the clutch plate speed, resulting in a jerking sensation.

Where is the best position for the reversing mirror?

Generally, it is attached to the outer side of the rearview mirror. Due to its small size, the small circular mirror hardly affects the field of view of the rearview mirror. Below are the functions of the reversing mirror: 1. Ensuring driving safety: The rearview mirror is an ideal auxiliary product for ensuring driving safety, expanding the driver's perspective, and facilitating overtaking and lane changes. 2. Reversing aid: The small circular mirror is also an ideal reversing aid, usually installed on the outer side of the left and right rearview mirrors. 3. Viewing the side of the vehicle: When the small circular mirror is installed on the rearview mirror, the driver can see the condition of the vehicle's side and the rear wheels, thus maximizing the use of the small circular rearview mirror.

What are the materials of car covers?

Car covers are divided into PVC material, single-coated material, double-coated flame-retardant material, nano flame-retardant material, PU material, and Lajin flame-retardant material. Here is a detailed introduction to car covers: 1. Double-coated flame-retardant material: Sunproof, dustproof, rainproof, scratch-resistant, and flame-retardant, made with high-tech double-coated fabric and finely stitched. 2. Single-coated material: Good dustproof and sunproof effects, but not rainproof or scratch-resistant, can only be used on one side. Single-coated car covers are only available in silver, which effectively blocks UV rays. Single-coated car covers are lighter. 3. PVC material: Good dustproof and rainproof effects, but not sunproof or scratch-resistant, can only be used on one side. PVC car covers are only available in silver and are heavier. 4. Nano flame-retardant material: Sunproof, dustproof, rainproof, scratch-resistant, and flame-retardant, made with 560w nano fabric and finely stitched. 5. PU material car cover: A new type of material, this ultra-fine leather is called "ultra-fine fiber reinforced PU leather," which has excellent wear resistance, cold resistance, breathability, and aging resistance. 6. Lajin flame-retardant material: Sunproof, dustproof, rainproof, and scratch-resistant, can be used on both sides. Lajin car covers are made with 718V Oxford fabric as the base material and finely stitched.
