I've removed the Ford Escort rear seat cushion several times, and the process isn't difficult but requires care. First, push the front seats all the way forward to create working space. Then crouch beside the rear seat and locate the clip positions at the bottom edge of the seat—usually there are two plastic clips near the door side. Firmly grip the edge of the cushion with both hands and give a strong upward pull; you'll hear a click as it releases. If the clips are too tight, don't force it—use a small flathead screwdriver to gently pry them open. Be careful not to tug on any wiring, as some cars have heating elements to avoid. Once removed, you can wash the cushion or perform maintenance easily. When reinstalling, align the clips and press firmly into place, otherwise the cushion may wobble while driving. I recommend wearing gloves to protect your hands and keeping tools organized in the car—safety first.

Does Air Conditioning Water Affect Car Paint?

Water discharged from the air conditioning system will not damage the car paint if it drips on the car for a long time. Here are the reasons why a car's air conditioning system produces a lot of water: Evaporator has a condensation effect: Because the car's cooling system is located inside the dashboard, it is equipped with an evaporator. When the air conditioning is turned on, the surface temperature of the evaporator is very low, and the moisture in the hot air inside the car will condense on the surface of the evaporator's heat-absorbing fins. The water droplets are then collected by the evaporator's plastic casing and discharged out of the car through pipes. If the vehicle is stopped and restarted after a period of driving, you can see a puddle of clean, transparent water on the ground beneath the car. Air conditioning pipes are not wrapped with insulating foam: The low-pressure pipes of the car's air conditioning system are not wrapped with insulating foam, making the pipe surfaces prone to condensing moisture from the air. Water droplets will also condense and accumulate at the lowest point of the pipes, eventually dripping down.

Can a Car Still Run if the Exhaust Pipe is Flooded?

After being flooded, a car can still run with water in the exhaust pipe. Below are precautions for driving in rainy weather: Check the wipers: Especially important for nighttime driving during heavy rain. Maintain distance: Control your speed. Roads become slippery when wet, reducing tire traction. If driving too fast, inertia increases, and braking effectiveness significantly decreases in emergencies, raising the risk of accidents. Avoid sudden maneuvers when encountering water: If you see water and immediately swerve or brake sharply, the vehicle behind may not react in time, increasing the chance of an accident. Estimate the water depth; normally, if it's under 15 cm, you can drive at regular speed. When crossing water, control the throttle and avoid stomping on it suddenly, which could overload the engine or cause tire slippage.

Why is the supplementary page of the driver's license not laminated?

The supplementary page is used to record reminders and may require changes at any time, so it should never be laminated. Below is relevant information about the supplementary page of the driver's license: Function of the supplementary page: The supplementary page of the driver's license allows the police to record the license's file number and related matters. The file number usually consists of 12 digits. The first two digits represent the province code where the license was issued, the third and fourth digits indicate the district or county code, and the remaining eight digits are sequentially assigned by the local vehicle management office. Each driver's license has one and only one corresponding file number. Through this number, one can determine which vehicle management office issued the license and check the individual's demerit points. How to replace the supplementary page: The replacement procedure is not complicated. The license holder only needs to bring their ID card, driver's license, two one-inch color photos with a white background, and the replacement fee to the local vehicle management office to complete the process.

How Often Should Gear Oil Be Changed?

Under normal driving conditions, vehicle gear oil should generally be changed every 120,000 kilometers, while under poor driving conditions, it should be changed every 60,000 kilometers. The role of gear oil: The main function of gear oil is to keep the shifting system clean, lubricate, and prolong the life of the transmission device. Due to different transmission designs, which are divided into manual transmissions and automatic transmissions (also including CVT, AMT, etc.), each transmission design has different technical requirements. Even the same type of transmission configuration in different models varies in torque, weight, speed, structure, etc. Therefore, the original manufacturer specifies its own dedicated transmission oil. Usage scenarios for three types of gear oil: For ordinary car gears, choose ordinary car gear oil; if the car is driven in a very poor environment, frequently bumping on mountain roads, the use of hypoid gear oil can be considered; if the vehicle has hypoid gears, then hypoid gear oil must be used. Amount of gear oil used: Since gear loads are generally above 490 MPa, and hypoid gear surface loads can reach up to 2,942 MPa, the amount of gear oil accounts for about 6-8% of the total lubricating oil. Base oils commonly used to blend gear oil include 500SN, 650SN, 150BS, 200BS, etc. Some also use synthetic oils such as PAO, polyethers, etc. Generally, GL-4, GL-5 grades of 85W/90, 85W/140, and 90, 140 oils can be blended with ordinary mineral oils, while GL-4, GL-5 grades of 75W/90, 80W/90 require blending with synthetic oils.

What does the ECO display mean on the Buick Excelle?

The ECO display indicates that the vehicle's economic driving mode is activated. ECO is an English abbreviation formed from Ecology (environmental protection), Conservation (energy saving), and Optimization (power). The Eco mode is further divided into active Eco driving mode and non-active Eco driving mode. Eco mode can be categorized into active and non-active types. The difference lies in the fact that the active type has a dedicated button, allowing the driver to choose whether to activate it. When the driver presses the Eco mode switch, the dashboard indicator light will illuminate, and the vehicle will automatically adjust settings such as throttle opening, transmission shift logic, and air conditioning output power. Non-active Eco mode does not have a dedicated button. When the dashboard Eco indicator light comes on, it serves merely as a reminder. The Eco system automatically evaluates your driving behavior. If your current driving operation achieves the optimal fuel supply, the dashboard will simultaneously display the Eco indicator light. Most vehicles use the active Eco driving mode, meaning they have a dedicated switch button. Therefore, during daily driving, we can generally activate the Eco mode. However, it is unnecessary to enable Eco mode when driving at speeds exceeding 120 km/h, during idle parking, in N/P gear, or in manual mode—especially when climbing hills. Doing so would not only fail to demonstrate the fuel-saving characteristics of Eco mode but also negatively impact driving performance. Additionally, the Eco mode typically becomes ineffective under the following circumstances: When the vehicle speed exceeds 120 km/h, the system prioritizes speed, causing the Eco mode to deactivate automatically. During idle parking or when in N/P gear or manual mode, the Eco mode may also become ineffective. When high torque output is required, such as when climbing a hill, the engine control unit prioritizes ensuring sufficient power to drive the vehicle, and the Eco mode will not function.

Why does the engine suddenly accelerate automatically?

Car automatic acceleration is caused by the car floor mat problem, which leads to the car throttle being stuck by the floor mat, resulting in unexplained acceleration. The specific reasons and precautions are as follows: Specific reasons: When driving, acceleration and normal driving require continuous pressing of the throttle. When driving, reducing speed requires releasing the throttle. In theory, releasing the throttle reduces the engine's fuel supply to idle levels, lowering the RPM to idle speed. However, the inertia force of the car at high speed is transmitted to the engine through the drivetrain, causing the engine to act as a brake and slow the car down. At this point, the engine is being pushed to operate above idle speed, and the fuel-saving device cuts the engine's fuel supply to zero. Precautions: Car floor mats are an environmentally friendly automotive interior component that integrates five main functions: water absorption, dust absorption, stain removal, sound insulation, and protection of the main carpet. Car floor mats are interior decorations that protect the cleanliness inside and outside the car, adding aesthetic and comfortable touches. The water absorption, dust absorption, and stain removal properties of car floor mats can effectively prevent residual moisture and dirt from the soles of shoes from causing slippage between the clutch, brake, and throttle, avoiding safety hazards and reducing the likelihood of interior contamination and damage. After all, cleaning floor mats is more convenient and economical than cleaning the interior.
