There are two methods to reset the maintenance light on the 10th generation Civic: 1. With the vehicle started, press and hold the reset button until the appropriate remaining maintenance mileage is displayed, then release; 2. Access the maintenance information reset option in the settings of the central control screen to reset the maintenance light. The first maintenance is recommended after driving 5,000 kilometers or six months of use. The 10th generation Civic performs well in terms of space, with ample legroom in both front and rear seats. The front seats offer generous headroom, while the rear seats have slightly limited headroom. The floor hump in the rear is not prominent, enhancing practicality. The storage compartments are functional, and the trunk space has been improved compared to previous models. The vehicle's dimensions are 4649mm in length, 1800mm in width, and 1416mm in height, with a wheelbase of 2700mm.

I've been driving the tenth-generation Civic for a while, and resetting the maintenance light is quite simple: get in the car, don't start the engine, just turn the key to the ignition position. At this point, the dashboard lights up, hold down the 'Trip' button for about 10 seconds, and the maintenance light will flash a few times before turning off. The whole process is quick, taking less than half a minute. I recommend having the technician reset it during maintenance to avoid mistakes. The maintenance light is a reminder system, indicating that the vehicle needs regular maintenance—don't ignore it. Regularly changing the oil and checking parts can extend the engine's life and ensure driving safety, as small issues left unattended can lead to bigger problems. After each reset, I also check the tire pressure and fluid levels to make sure everything is normal before hitting the road.

Which Country is the Getrag Transmission From?

Getrag transmissions are from Germany, but the company has established branches in China. Getrag (Jiangxi) Transmission System Co., Ltd. is a joint venture between Germany's Getrag Group and Jiangling Motors Group, serving as a provider of transmission technology products and services. It officially commenced operations in January 2007 in Nanchang, Jiangxi. Getrag transmissions are used in various domestic vehicle models, such as the Haval M6, which employs either a 6-speed manual transmission or a 7-speed wet dual-clutch transmission. A manual transmission is a gear-shifting device used to alter the engine's speed and torque delivered to the drive wheels, enabling the vehicle to achieve different levels of traction and speed under various conditions like starting, climbing hills, turning, and accelerating. For daily use of Getrag transmissions, the following points should be noted: Do not delay changing the transmission oil for extended periods. Prolonged failure to change the transmission oil can damage internal components such as bearings and the housing. Avoid coasting in neutral for long durations. While driving manual transmission vehicles, many experienced drivers may coast in neutral, but for automatic transmission vehicles, this can cause overheating and create a jolt when shifting back into Drive (D). Never shift into Drive (D) or Reverse (R) before the vehicle has come to a complete stop. Some drivers, aiming for smooth operation, may shift into reverse while the vehicle is still moving, which can severely damage the transmission gears and lead to issues like gear grinding over time. Do not frequently climb steep slopes in Drive (D). Automatic transmission vehicles can overheat under high load or shift too early, resulting in insufficient power for climbing. In such cases, use manual mode to lock in lower gears or switch to sport mode to protect the transmission. Avoid long-distance towing. If an automatic transmission vehicle breaks down, use a flatbed tow truck to transport it in Neutral (N) rather than towing it directly with a rope or another vehicle.

How to set the horn sound when locking the Atz?

The method to set the horn sound when locking the Atz is as follows: 1. Turn on the horn sound when locking: You can use the remote key to turn on the horn sound when locking, which is to press the unlock and lock buttons simultaneously for 3 seconds. The light will flash once, and then only the light will flash without the horn sound. 2. Restore the horn sound: To restore, press the lock and unlock buttons simultaneously for 3 seconds again, and the light will flash once. 3. Turn off the horn sound when locking: Settings - Sound - Screen lock sound - Play sound when locking and unlocking the screen. The following is an introduction to other horn sounds: 1. Electromagnetic vibration to produce sound: The electromagnetic coil attracts the moving contact switch of the relay to close, and the current will flow to the horn. The current makes the electromagnet inside the horn work, thus causing the diaphragm to vibrate and produce sound. 2. Air horn: The air horn is mainly used in heavy-duty trucks with air brake systems. The electric horn has the characteristics of simple structure, small size, light weight, pleasant sound, and easy maintenance, so it is widely used in small and medium-sized vehicles.

What is the fuel tank capacity of the Tayron 330 in liters?

The fuel tank capacity of the Tayron 330 is 60 liters, as officially announced. Owners of the Tayron 330 can also check this information on the vehicle's configuration sheet. The Tayron 330 requires 95-octane fuel, with a fuel consumption of 6.8L per 100 kilometers. A full tank can cover a distance of approximately 882 kilometers. During daily driving, it is essential to monitor the remaining fuel level in the tank. This is typically done by observing the fuel gauge inside the vehicle. Under normal circumstances, the fuel gauge accurately reflects the remaining fuel. The fuel gauge usually has 5 to 6 segments, and it is advisable to refuel when only 2 segments remain to avoid running out of fuel mid-journey. In actual refueling situations, the amount of fuel added may exceed the marked capacity. This is because the manufacturer's specified tank capacity is measured from the bottom of the tank to the safe fill level, leaving some space between the safe fill level and the tank opening. This space ensures that the fuel can expand safely when temperatures rise without overflowing. If fuel is added up to the tank opening, the actual refueling amount may exceed the marked tank capacity.

How to Repair a Dented Side Skirt on a Volkswagen Lavida?

The methods for repairing a dented side skirt on a Volkswagen Lavida are as follows: 1. The repair of the side skirt largely depends on the material used for the side skirt. If it is made of plastic, you can carefully tap it with a small hammer wrapped in a towel to restore its shape. 2. If it is made of iron or metal, you will need to take it to a repair shop for panel beating and repainting. 3. If it is made of aluminum alloy, it generally cannot be repaired and must be replaced. 4. You can also visit a repair shop to use dent repair technology, which involves using suction cups to pull out the dented area, then inserting a hook behind the dented region to slowly push it out, and finally using a rubber hammer to smooth out the protruding parts. The simplest methods for repairing a dented car side skirt: 1. Small suction cups can be used to repair minor dents on the car door. Attach the suction cups to the dented area; if the dent is large, prepare several suction cups and evenly attach them to the center of the dent. 2. Then, use tools to pull outward with appropriate force. 3. Utilize a specialized bridge-style suction rod for dent repair, which can adhere to the attached adhesive pad and continuously turn the nut until the dent is leveled out.

How to Start Quickly Without Stalling in a Manual Transmission Car?

Manual transmission quick start without stalling method is to gently press the accelerator with the right foot and slowly release the clutch with the left foot. Manual transmission is a type of gearbox used to change the speed and torque transmitted from the engine to the driving wheels, enabling the car to achieve different traction and speed under various conditions such as starting from a standstill, climbing hills, turning, and accelerating, while keeping the engine operating within a more favorable range. Manual transmission start and accelerator method: First, slowly release the clutch until reaching the semi-engagement point, then apply the accelerator. This can avoid the embarrassment of stalling. If you press the accelerator before releasing the clutch, the clutch plate will bear a greater load, increasing wear. Moreover, the starting speed will be harder to control, compromising driving safety. Manual transmission starting technique: Start the car in neutral, quickly press the clutch, shift into first gear, gently release the clutch until reaching the semi-engagement state, then stabilize the clutch and lightly press the accelerator. Release the clutch slowly, keep the clutch steady for two to three seconds as the car moves forward, lightly press the accelerator while slowly releasing the clutch. This method ensures a stall-free start. When waiting at a traffic light, press the clutch when there are five seconds left on the red light, slowly release the brake, and lightly press the accelerator when there is one second left to achieve a quick start. Manual transmission cars are most prone to stalling during starts, so it's essential to master the use of the accelerator and brake, especially the flexible application of semi-engagement.

Should Cadillac Use 92 or 95 Octane Gasoline?

According to the official vehicle manual recommendations, all Cadillac models should use 95 octane gasoline. For all Cadillac models, in addition to checking the appropriate gasoline grade in the vehicle manual, you can also find it marked on the fuel tank cap. Typically, the gasoline grade can also be determined based on the engine's compression ratio. Vehicles with an engine compression ratio between 8.6-9.9 should use 92 octane gasoline, while those with a compression ratio between 10.0-11.5 should use 95 octane gasoline. However, with the application of new technologies, the compression ratio alone cannot determine the gasoline grade. High compression ratio engines can still be tuned to use lower octane gasoline because, besides the compression ratio, other factors such as ignition timing, turbocharging technology, and Atkinson cycle technology also play a role. Generally, the higher the gasoline octane number, the higher the octane value and the better the anti-knock performance. 92 octane gasoline contains 92% isooctane and 8% n-heptane, while 95 octane gasoline contains 95% isooctane and 5% n-heptane. If a Cadillac model occasionally uses the wrong gasoline grade, simply switch back to the correct grade after consumption. However, long-term use of the wrong gasoline grade can have the following effects: For vehicles recommended to use lower octane gasoline, using higher octane gasoline will not cause damage, but the increased octane value will alter the fuel's ignition point, leading to delayed combustion in the engine. This results in reduced engine power and thermal efficiency, with the actual experience being poorer performance. For vehicles recommended to use higher octane gasoline, using lower octane gasoline can cause engine knocking. Because the octane value is significantly lower, the reduced ignition point may cause premature ignition during the compression stroke. If combustion occurs before the spark plug fires, resistance will be generated during the upward stroke. This resistance makes the engine run very unstably. If the knocking is mild, it may only increase noise without significant engine damage. However, noticeable knocking indicates severe engine conditions, affecting not only driving stability but also causing abnormal wear on pistons and cylinders, and in severe cases, cylinder scoring.
