Here are methods to remove odors in the car during summer: 1. Reduce the source of odors: Start by eliminating the sources of odors, such as moldy floor mats, seats, clothes, ashtray ashes, cigarette butts, and other debris. The mixture of these smells in the cabin can become unbearable. Only by maintaining cleanliness inside the car can you reduce the sources of odors. 2. Open windows frequently: If conditions permit while driving, open the windows often to effectively ventilate the car, which is also the quickest solution. When at home, park the car in a sunny spot with all windows open—sunlight exposure can help eliminate many odors. 3. Neutral-smelling car air fresheners: It’s best to choose neutral, lightly scented car air fresheners. These not only smell fresh but are also less likely to develop unpleasant odors. Many lemon-scented fresheners are acidic, and their lingering scent can accumulate in the AC evaporator, leading to mold and odor issues.

Can You Start the Engine in P Gear for an Automatic Transmission?

You can start the engine in P gear for an automatic transmission. Starting in P gear and passing through R gear without stopping will not cause damage to the transmission. An automatic transmission refers to a car's automatic gear-shifting mechanism, where the control system of the automatic transmission selects the appropriate gear based on the engine's speed and load during driving, eliminating the need for the driver to manually shift gears. The gears for an automatic transmission car are as follows: 1. P gear stands for Parking and Starting gear. When the gear is in this position, the wheels are mechanically locked to prevent rolling; 2. R gear stands for Reverse gear, used when reversing; 3. N gear stands for Neutral gear, used for temporary parking. To prevent the vehicle from rolling on a slope, it is important to step on the brake when using this gear; 4. D gear stands for Drive gear, used when the vehicle is moving forward; 5. L gear stands for Low gear, used when going downhill or descending a long slope. Engaging this gear allows the use of engine power for braking, avoiding the danger of overheating brake pads due to prolonged braking; 6. S gear stands for Sport mode, allowing free gear switching when engaged.

What to do if the headlights of Sagitar get water inside and fog up?

For relatively minor cases of moisture or water ingress inside the headlights, the fogging will usually dissipate as the heat from the headlights causes the moisture to evaporate and exit through the vent tube after the headlights have been on for a while. In cases of severe moisture or water ingress, the headlight assembly should be removed, the lens opened, and allowed to dry. After drying, inspect the condition of the headlight surface.
