Last time I went to the 4S shop for maintenance, I specifically asked about this issue. Actually, clearing the maintenance reminder on a Ford is quite simple. First, turn off the engine, then press and hold the OK button on the steering wheel without releasing it, and turn the key to the second position to power on. At this point, the dashboard will pop up a prompt asking if you want to reset. Continue holding the OK button until the progress bar completes. The whole process takes just about ten seconds. However, it's important to note that the button positions vary by model. For example, the Ford Escort uses the button on the right side of the dashboard, while the Ford Kuga requires navigating to the maintenance settings option in the menu. After a successful reset, don't forget to start the car again to check if the reminder light has disappeared. I recommend checking the vehicle manual before operating, as pressing the wrong settings could cause unnecessary trouble.

How to deactivate the anti-theft system on the Teana?

The method to deactivate the anti-theft system on the Teana is as follows: First, turn the ignition switch to OFF, then use the key to turn it to ON. Wait for 5 seconds before turning it back to OFF and wait another 5 seconds. Repeat this process three times, and then you can restart the engine. At this point, it indicates that the system has exited the anti-theft state. More information about the anti-theft system is provided below: 1. The reason why the Teana's anti-theft system activates is that the car was turned off without straightening the steering wheel when parking. At this time, the car will automatically enter the anti-theft system. The specific manifestation is that the car cannot be started, and the steering wheel is found to be locked and cannot be turned. 2. In addition to the above unlocking method, you can also directly go to a 4S shop for computer matching to unlock. Because the car's ignition key has an electronic chip, each chip has a specified ID. Only when the key chip ID matches the engine ID can the car be started. The 4S shop can match the same ID, thereby unlocking the Teana's anti-theft system.

Which side should you overtake from?

Overtaking should be done from the left side. In regions where traffic keeps to the right, the overtaking lane is the leftmost lane. In regions where traffic keeps to the left, the overtaking lane is the rightmost lane. According to regulations: 1. Overtaking from the right while driving a motor vehicle will result in a 3-point penalty and a fine of up to 200 RMB. The right side is the blind spot for left-hand drive vehicles, with severely limited visibility. The vehicle being overtaken may not notice the violating vehicle on the right, increasing the risk of collision when changing lanes to the right. 2. Overtaking refers to the process where the following vehicle merges into the rear side of the leading vehicle, passes it, and then merges back into the original lane. The lane typically used for overtaking is the inner lane, which is closer to the center of the road and farther from the shoulder.

After removal of axle or suspension components. 3. When the chassis or suspension is damaged in an accident. 4. Abnormal uneven tire wear, particularly severe one-sided wear on front or rear tires. 5. When experiencing floating or unstable body movement during normal driving.

Is it true that cars nowadays don't have a break-in period?

Whether a car has a break-in period depends on whether it is mentioned in the user manual. Here is a detailed introduction to the car break-in period: 1. Nowadays, new cars launched by automotive brands generally do not have the concept of a break-in period. However, the absence of a break-in period does not mean you can drive a new car recklessly. When taking a new car on the road, the driver needs to adapt to the function buttons and operating habits of the new car. This adaptation process effectively replaces the so-called break-in period. 2. The car break-in period refers to the initial driving phase of a new car or one that has undergone major repairs. It ensures that the various components of the car can fully contact and friction during actual operation, thereby adjusting and enhancing their ability to adapt to the environment. Typically, the break-in period covers the first 1,000-1,500 kilometers of driving. 3. Car break-in is divided into cold break-in and running-in. Cold break-in involves the engine being run on a machine where an electric motor drives the crankshaft and pistons to rotate. The pistons operate in the cylinders in a state similar to actual running conditions, but without the high temperatures from fuel combustion. This process mainly aims to prevent fine metal residues left during manufacturing from reducing the engine's lifespan. Running-in refers to the break-in process during normal driving, primarily involving the driver's adaptation to the use of the car's brake pads.
