The solutions for when the brake light is on and the car won't start are as follows: Check whether the brake caliper and brake oil pipe are leaking. Below are the reasons why a car won't start: 1. Battery depletion: When the car battery is depleted, the car will fail to start. There are many reasons for car battery depletion, such as lack of water in the battery, battery failure, or prolonged use of the air conditioning. When the car won't start, the first thing to check is whether there is a problem with the car battery. 2. Low temperature: In cold winter weather, cars often fail to start. This is because in low-temperature environments, the viscosity and rotation speed of the car's engine oil decrease, leading to reduced ignition energy from the battery and decreased molecular activity, making it difficult to form flammable gases and thus hard to start the car.

Why is the first maintenance required after three months for a new car?

First maintenance involves changing the engine oil, which not only lubricates but also cleans. Components like the engine block and pistons in a new car are not yet properly broken in. The requirement to change the oil after three months or 3,000 kilometers is intended to clean out metal shavings and other impurities generated during the engine's break-in period, ensuring future performance. During the first maintenance, engine oil and the oil filter are mandatory replacements. Whether other items need to be changed depends on the vehicle's manual, as requirements vary by model. Of course, replacing the cabin air filter and engine air filter is even better, as these can be changed without strictly following the manual.

Should a new turbocharged car use 5w30 or 40?

Both 5w30 and 40 are suitable for new turbocharged cars. Turbocharged engines operate under high temperatures and pressures, requiring higher viscosity engine oil to provide adequate lubrication. Effects of low oil viscosity: During normal engine operation, oil forms a protective film on engine components to reduce wear. If the oil viscosity is too low, it cannot form a stable protective film, which accelerates engine wear. Advantages of turbocharged engines: When properly matched and operating under positive boost pressure, they can reduce emissions and exhaust noise while significantly increasing power output with minimal size increase. Disadvantages include slower acceleration response and less linear/smooth operation.

Which Subject is Hill Start in the Driving Test?

Hill start is part of Subject 2 in the driving test. Precautions for hill start: Pay attention to the situation in the rearview mirror. The distance between the car body and the sideline should be kept at about 30 centimeters. When you observe through the rearview mirror that the lower part of the mirror overlaps with the control line, press the clutch and brake, and be careful to prevent the car from rolling backward. Precautions for starting on a slope: After completing the hill start, remember to turn on the left turn signal, slowly release the clutch, and when you feel the car's front shaking or the engine sound becoming muffled, slowly release the brake to prepare for starting.
