Vehicle wheel hub damage can be repaired using the following methods: 1. Deformation Position Detection: First, locate the deformed area of the wheel hub. Mount the hub on a fixture and use a dial gauge to find and calibrate the deformed position. 2. Heating: Use a blowtorch to locally heat the deformed area. The small red dots on the hub are infrared thermometers; stop heating once the desired temperature is reached. 3. Correction: Once the hub softens at the appropriate temperature, use a small hydraulic jack for repeated slight corrections. 4. Completion. Note: If the reinforcement ribs of the wheel hub are severely deformed (left-right wobble), repair is not recommended.

What is the maximum fuel capacity of a Corolla?

Toyota Corolla's fuel tank capacity varies by configuration, with options of 43L and 50L. The manufacturer recommends using 92-octane gasoline. Below are the steps to operate the fuel tank cap of a Toyota Corolla: 1. Locate the fuel tank cap switch below the left side of the driver's seat. 2. To open the fuel tank cap, pull the switch. 3. You can then open the fuel tank cap for refueling. Extended steps for the Toyota Corolla refueling process: 1. To open, press the left side of the fuel tank cap. 2. Turn the fuel tank cap cover to the left to remove it. 3. The fuel tank cap has a designated placement for the cover; insert it accordingly. 4. Insert the fuel nozzle into the tank. 5. The first automatic shut-off of the nozzle indicates the tank is full. Continuing to refuel will fill the expansion chamber in the tank. 6. Do not remove the nozzle immediately; leave it at the fuel inlet for 5 seconds to allow all fuel to drain into the tank. 7. Replace the fuel tank cap cover, ensuring it is tightly secured. 8. Finally, close the fuel tank cap.

What driving modes does the Teramont have?

The Teramont has the following driving modes: 1. Eco Mode (ECO). The onboard computer controls the fuel injection volume of the cylinders and alters the usual gear-shifting logic. In simple terms, the vehicle accelerates gradually rather than surging forward abruptly with a single press of the accelerator. 2. Comfort Mode. The suspension is tuned to be softer, the steering wheel becomes more responsive, and the engine speed is maintained at a lower range. For instance, when crossing speed bumps or braking in sudden situations, the vehicle's comfort level is significantly enhanced. Passengers experience improved comfort with noticeably reduced jerking sensations. 3. Sport Mode. The throttle response becomes more aggressive. The vehicle delivers high torque output right from the start, with delayed upshifts to prolong the high torque duration. The most direct sensation is stronger acceleration and a heightened sense of the vehicle's explosive power. However, this mode increases fuel consumption and subjects the transmission gears and engine crankshaft connecting rod mechanism to additional mechanical stress. 4. Individual Mode. Owners can customize the vehicle's driving characteristics based on their preferences. Driving settings can be adjusted to Eco, Balanced, or Sport; steering settings can be set to Comfort, Balanced, or Sport. This mode offers more driving enjoyment for those who seek it. 5. Off-road Mode. In this mode, the onboard computer locks the gear and restricts upshifts. All four wheels operate independently, functioning as full-time four-wheel drive. This provides stronger power performance in environments like slopes and sandy terrain, enhancing vehicle stability at the cost of slightly reduced throttle response and steering feedback. 6. Snow Mode. Suitable for icy or slippery road conditions, this mode offers better traction and improved straight-line driving performance. 7. Off-road Individual Mode. Allows parameter adjustments for off-road conditions, enabling the vehicle to better adapt to off-road functions.

Why is the tachometer of the Verna not moving?

The reasons why the Verna's tachometer is not moving are: 1. The flexible shaft connection is disconnected; 2. There is foreign matter stuck inside the meter preventing movement; 3. There is an issue with the dashboard; 4. Wiring problems; 5. The pointer has fallen off. The working principle of the tachometer is that it receives digital pulse signals, processes them, and directly reads them into the CPU's counting port. The software then calculates the speed and the corresponding position of the pointer, and through the CPU's control port, amplifies the signal to drive the stepper motor to rotate in both positive and negative directions. The Verna has a length of 4300mm, a width of 1705mm, a height of 1460mm, and a wheelbase of 2570mm. The car's engine has a maximum horsepower of 95Ps, a maximum power of 70kW, and a maximum torque of 132Nm.
