The auto start-stop function on the Lavida is indeed convenient and fuel-saving, but honestly, I find it quite annoying when driving in the city, especially during traffic jams where the engine repeatedly starts and stops—it's really uncomfortable. Turning it off is easy: after starting the car, look to the left of the instrument panel or the center console for a button with an 'A' symbol (often labeled 'A OFF'), press it once, and the light will indicate it's deactivated. Note that this is only a temporary disable—it resets every time you restart the car. Additionally, I recommend turning it off on routes with frequent red lights to avoid the jerking motion affecting your driving experience. Prolonged use of auto start-stop can sometimes lead to premature battery wear, so remember to check your vehicle regularly and maintain system health.

I'm quite interested in automotive electronic systems. The Lavida's automatic start-stop design is for environmental protection, but in actual operation, it may not suit all scenarios. To turn it off, after starting the engine, locate the 'Automatic Start/Stop Off' button in the driver's side control area and press it until the indicator light comes on. This feature is enabled by default for fuel efficiency, but frequent starts and stops can increase engine wear, especially in hot weather. I often recommend friends to keep it enabled during highway or long-distance driving, but turning it off for short urban trips is more comfortable. Feedback from Lavida owners shows that many manually deactivate it during peak congestion hours to enhance driving tranquility.

How to Check Engine Oil Pressure?

Engine oil pressure should be measured and checked using a dedicated oil pressure gauge. The measurement method is as follows: 1. Disconnect the wiring harness plug of the oil pressure sensor and remove the oil pressure sensor; 2. Screw the hose connector of the oil pressure gauge into the threaded hole where the oil pressure sensor is installed and tighten the connector; 3. Place the oil pressure gauge in a location where it will not come into contact with rotating or high-temperature engine components; 4. Start the engine and check for oil leaks at the oil pressure gauge connector. If there is any leakage, turn off the engine and retighten the connector; 5. Run the engine until it reaches normal operating temperature, then check the oil pressure gauge readings at both idle and 2000 rpm, comparing them with the standard pressure values.

What does the 'a' on the electronic handbrake mean?

The 'a' on the electronic handbrake represents the vehicle's auto-hold function. Vehicles equipped with electronic handbrakes typically come with this feature, which is not enabled by default and requires manual activation by the driver. Once the auto-hold function is activated, it eliminates the need for frequent operation of the handbrake or electronic handbrake. For automatic transmission models, it also reduces the need for frequent shifting between D to N or D to P. When the vehicle comes to a complete stop during driving, even if the brake pedal is released, the vehicle will not move forward automatically. It will only resume driving when the accelerator pedal is pressed again.

What Causes Shaking When Braking in D Gear?

If the shaking when braking in D gear is slight, it is a normal phenomenon. However, if the shaking is severe, it may be caused by damage to the engine mounts. The engine mounts, usually made of rubber, are located where the engine connects to the frame and serve to cushion the engine's vibrations. D gear, also known as the drive gear, engages the corresponding forward gear hydraulic circuit automatically based on throttle opening and vehicle speed signals when the gear selector is in this position. Automatic transmission cars use an automatic transmission to adjust speed, where the transmission's control system automatically selects the appropriate gear based on engine speed and load, replacing the driver's subjective judgment and manual gear shifting.

What does the oil grade 10w40 mean?

The oil grade 10w40 refers to the viscosity of the oil being 10w40. The number before the 'w' represents the cold start performance, with smaller numbers indicating easier engine starting in cold weather. Common grades include 0W, 5W, 10W, and 15W. The '40' indicates the oil's viscosity characteristics at high temperatures. High-viscosity oils (with higher values) may be more suitable for high-speed driving or heavily loaded vehicles. Engine oil, also known as motor lubricant, serves functions such as lubrication and wear reduction, auxiliary cooling, rust and corrosion prevention, and shock absorption. Engine oil consists of base oil and additives. The base oil is the main component of the lubricant, determining its fundamental properties, while additives compensate for and improve any shortcomings in the base oil's performance.
