Shifting gears in a dual-clutch transmission car is done by pushing the gear lever forward to upshift and pulling it backward to downshift. The dual-clutch system is computer-controlled and does not require manual operation. The dual-clutch mechanism primarily enhances shifting speed and eliminates power transmission interruption during gear changes. A dual-clutch transmission (DCT) differs from conventional automatic transmission systems, as it combines aspects of both manual and automatic transmissions. It offers the flexibility of a manual transmission and the comfort of an automatic transmission while providing uninterrupted power output. During gear shifts, the driver must depress the clutch pedal to engage different gears, which can cause a brief interruption in power delivery.

What does it mean to correct tire pressure?

Correcting tire pressure means indicating abnormal tire pressure and triggering the tire pressure monitoring alarm. Here is an introduction to abnormal tire pressure: 1. Low tire pressure: If the pressure is too low, the tire body deformation increases, cracks are prone to appear on the tire side, and flexing motion occurs, leading to excessive heat generation, promoting rubber aging, fatigue of the cord layer, and cord breakage. It also increases the tire contact area, accelerating shoulder wear. 2. High tire pressure: If the pressure is too high, the tire cords will be excessively stretched and deformed, reducing the elasticity of the tire body and increasing the load on the car while driving. In case of impact, internal cracks and blowouts may occur. At the same time, excessive pressure will accelerate crown wear and reduce puncture resistance.

What is the signal light style of the new national standard traffic light?

Here are the changes in the signal light style of the new national standard traffic light: 1. Cancel the countdown timer of traffic lights: The countdown timer of the 2021 new national standard traffic light will be canceled. The new traffic lights are highly intelligent, and the system can monitor the changes in traffic flow in real time and adjust the working time of the traffic lights at any time according to the specific traffic flow at the intersection, adjusting the signal light release. 2. Unify the national traffic light style: The new version of the traffic light style is completely unified, which is different from the previous signs. When both the disc light and the arrow light are red, traffic in any direction is prohibited; when the disc light is green, the right-turn arrow light is off, and the left-turn arrow light is red, you can go straight or turn right, but you cannot turn left.

Why Can't the Car Trunk Stay Locked?

The trunk not being able to lock or close tightly is usually caused by the following reasons: using overly stiff spring rods to allow the rear hatch to automatically lift after pressing the opening switch; improper matching between the closing limit rubber block and the locking mechanism; malfunction of the trunk control circuit; failure of the trunk hydraulic support rods. Relevant details are as follows: 1. Introduction: The trunk light and trunk switch are integrated—when the trunk opens, the trunk light turns on, and vice versa. 2. Sensor: If the trunk light does not turn off, it indicates an issue with the trunk sensor switch. This sensor functions like a retractable spring—it pops out when the trunk is open and gets pressed in by the trunk edge when closed. At this point, it is necessary to check whether the sensor is faulty. If it is, the component needs to be replaced. If not, inspect whether the trunk lock cylinder is functioning normally.

Why Do Car Headlights Automatically Turn On in Rainy Weather?

Car headlights automatically turning on is related to light conditions. Below is a detailed introduction to the use of car lights: 1. Low beam: Used for nighttime illumination, with a wide coverage area but short distance, approximately 25-35 meters. 2. High beam: Used for nighttime illumination, with a long distance and high angle, approximately 80-100 meters. Turn off high beams when encountering another vehicle. Do not use when following another vehicle closely. Avoid using in conditions of low visibility such as fog, rain, snow, or dust. 3. Turn signals: Located on both sides of the vehicle, yellow in color, used to indicate turning or pulling over. 4. Position lamps: Also known as width indicators, they are used to outline the vehicle's profile. Different vehicle models may have different position lamp configurations.
