To reset the maintenance light on the 10th generation Accord: First, turn on the vehicle's power, then locate the scroll wheel on the left side of the multifunction steering wheel. Use the scroll wheel to navigate the instrument panel to the warning message page, and then press the scroll wheel to successfully reset the maintenance light. Here are some related details: 1. Meaning of the maintenance light: When the maintenance light appears on the vehicle's dashboard, it indicates that the vehicle requires maintenance. 2. Routine maintenance items: Routine maintenance involves replacing engine oil and other fluids, oil filters, air filters, as well as some wear-prone rubber parts and slowly wearing components. In addition to replacing these parts, the vehicle should also be inspected. 3. Maintenance intervals: Maintenance time and mileage are not fixed. Owners can schedule maintenance based on their usage. If the vehicle is used in a favorable environment and driven gently, maintenance can be delayed appropriately. If the vehicle is used in harsh conditions or driven aggressively, consider performing maintenance earlier. Regular checks and maintenance are essential to keep the vehicle running smoothly and ensure driving safety.

I just dealt with the maintenance light on my 10th-gen Accord last time, and resetting it was quite straightforward. First, make sure the car is turned off, then sit in the driver's seat and press and hold the TRIP button under the steering wheel with your left hand—don't let go. Next, turn the key to the ON position without starting the engine; the dashboard will light up and display some information. Keep holding the TRIP button for about 10 seconds, and you'll see a prompt indicating that the maintenance light is resetting or the count is being zeroed—only then can you release the button. Turn off the power, wait a few seconds, and then start the engine to check; the light should be gone. Why do this? Because the light comes on every 5,000 km or so to remind you to change the oil. If you don't reset it after maintenance, it will keep flashing, which is annoying but doesn't affect driving safety. Make sure you've actually changed the oil before doing this step, or the system will still be counting the mileage. Experienced drivers like me, who've been driving for years, develop the habit of checking—no harm in that.

How many points are deducted for drunk driving a motor vehicle at one time?

Drunk driving a motor vehicle results in a deduction of 12 points at one time. According to regulations, drunk driving a motor vehicle, regardless of the severity of the circumstances or whether it causes consequences, will be convicted as dangerous driving, punishable by detention and a fine. Additionally, the second draft stipulates that if behaviors such as drunk driving or street racing also constitute other crimes, they will be convicted and punished according to the more severe provisions. Scientific data shows that the probability of traffic accidents caused by drunk driving is 16 times higher than that of normal driving. There is no way to reduce the penalty for a five-year license revocation due to drunk driving. After the driver's license is revoked for drunk driving, one must wait until the restriction period expires before applying for a new driver's license. The motor vehicle driver's license records will be retained until the restriction period for applying for a new license expires before being destroyed.

Is it necessary to transfer the driver's license back to the local area?

It is necessary to transfer the driver's license back to the local area because relevant regulations stipulate that the driver's license can only be renewed at the place where it was issued. Therefore, the fundamental purpose of transferring the driver's license back to the local area is for renewal. After transferring the driver's license back to the local area, you need to go to the local vehicle management office to apply for renewal. You need to prepare your ID card and a copy, photos, the old driver's license, and a medical examination report. Submit these materials and wait for the staff to process them. The renewed driver's license can usually be received on the spot. Before renewal, all traffic violation fines must be paid, otherwise the renewal cannot be processed. The first renewed driver's license is valid for 10 years, and the second renewal results in a long-term valid driver's license.

Is it okay if the clutch slips once or twice?

It is not okay if the clutch slips once or twice. If the burning smell comes from the clutch, it indicates that the clutch is burnt, which is a symptom of excessive wear. The components of the clutch interact with each other. Initially, it might just be the friction plate that is worn, but if not repaired in time, the flywheel may also be damaged. Symptoms of clutch plate failure: 1. The clutch pedal feels higher. When starting the vehicle, you need to lift the clutch pedal higher than before (e.g., from 1 cm to 2 cm) to engage, which is caused by the thinning of the clutch plate. 2. Reduced vehicle power. Even when the engine is running normally, the car feels sluggish during acceleration or climbing, with insufficient power despite high engine RPM, indicating clutch slippage. 3. Metallic grinding noises when pressing or releasing the clutch pedal, a result of severe clutch plate wear. 4. Uneven engagement when releasing the clutch during startup, causing the car to jerk forward or backward, along with a rough or sticky feeling when operating the clutch pedal, indicating the need for clutch plate replacement.

Can the T-Roc use 92-octane gasoline?

Using 92-octane gasoline in a turbocharged engine may cause engine knocking, which can affect both power output and fuel economy. Different grades of gasoline have varying octane ratings—higher-grade gasoline has a higher octane value, and gasoline with higher octane ratings offers better stability. The T-Roc is powered by 1.2T and 1.4T turbocharged engines, paired with either a 7-speed dual-clutch transmission or a 5-speed manual transmission. Positioned as a compact SUV, the T-Roc measures 4318 mm in length, 1819 mm in width, and 1582 mm in height, with a wheelbase of 2680 mm.
