I've been driving the Edge for several years, and the method to turn off the rear wiper is actually quite straightforward—it's on the control stalk to the left of the steering wheel. Just pull it toward you or rotate the control knob until you find the 'OFF' position to stop it. Remember to clean the wipers regularly to prevent dust buildup, which might make them hard to turn off. While driving in heavy rain, keeping the wipers on is fine, but using them on sunny days can be noisy and drain the battery. If they get stuck, stop and check first—don’t force them, as this could damage the components. Simply put, the control stalk is the core of the entire system—just twist it to turn off the wipers. Make it a habit to turn them off to extend their lifespan.

How often should the brake pads on a Ford New Mondeo be replaced?

Ford Mondeo brake pads should be replaced every 60,000 to 70,000 kilometers. The replacement method is as follows: 1. Before replacing the brake pads, open the cover of the brake fluid reservoir in the engine compartment to check the brake fluid level. If the brake fluid level is above the maximum limit, some should be removed to prevent overflow during replacement; 2. Prepare the new brake pads for replacement and remove the wheel where the brake is located. Be careful to avoid scratching the rim during removal; 3. Use a wrench and socket to remove the bolts of the brake caliper, then take out the brake pads (if there is a brake sensor line, remove it first). Check if the brake pads are excessively worn or have cracks. If so, proceed with the next steps of replacement; 4. Since the brake caliper may have a lot of sand or dirt, clean it thoroughly with a cloth and apply anti-squeal paste to prevent noise during braking; 5. Use a piston press to push the piston to its limit, then install the new brake pads onto the caliper. After the new brake pads are properly installed (including the brake sensor line if present), tighten the guide bolts to complete the installation; 6. After installation, cover the reservoir cap, get into the car, and press the brake pedal several times to reset the brake. Then check the brake fluid level to ensure it is within the appropriate range; 7. After replacement, test drive the car to check if the braking effect is achieved.

Which transmission is used in the Atenza?

The manufacturer of the Atenza's transmission is Aisin. Established in 1969, Aisin is a world-renowned professional developer and manufacturer of automotive automatic transmissions. In the field of automotive automatic transmissions, Aisin's products hold the world's highest market share. The Atenza uses a 6-speed automatic transmission with manual mode. This transmission has eight forward gears. Essentially, a manual-automatic transmission is a traditional AT or CVT transmission with added manual shifting functionality. When using the Atenza's transmission in daily driving, pay attention to the following points: Do not delay transmission fluid changes for extended periods. Prolonged failure to change the transmission fluid can damage internal components such as bearings and the housing. Avoid prolonged coasting in neutral. While many experienced drivers coast in neutral with manual transmissions, doing so with an automatic transmission can cause overheating and create a noticeable jolt when shifting back to Drive (D). Never shift into Drive (D) or Reverse (R) before the vehicle comes to a complete stop. Some drivers shift into the opposite gear prematurely to demonstrate "smooth" operation, but this severely damages transmission gears and may eventually cause gear grinding failures. Avoid frequent steep hill climbs in Drive (D). Automatic vehicles often overheat under heavy load during steep ascents or may upshift prematurely, causing insufficient climbing power. Use manual mode to maintain lower gears or engage sport mode to protect the transmission. Do not tow long distances. When an automatic vehicle breaks down, use a flatbed tow truck with the transmission in Neutral (N). Never tow directly with ropes or other vehicles.

What is a car composed of?

A car is generally composed of four basic parts: the engine, chassis, body, and electrical equipment. A car is primarily a non-track, non-catenary vehicle that relies on its own power for propulsion and has four or more wheels. Car Engine: The engine is the power unit of a car. It consists of the engine block, crankshaft and connecting rod mechanism, valve train, cooling system, lubrication system, fuel system, and ignition system (diesel engines do not have an ignition system). Engines can be categorized by fuel type into gasoline and diesel engines, and by working method into two-stroke and four-stroke engines, with most engines being four-stroke. Car Chassis: The chassis serves to support and mount the car engine and its various components and assemblies, forming the overall shape of the car. It receives power from the engine to enable movement and ensure normal operation. The chassis consists of four parts: the transmission system, running gear, steering system, and braking system. Car Body: The body is mounted on the frame of the chassis and is used to accommodate the driver, passengers, or cargo. The bodies of sedans and buses are usually of a unitary structure, while truck bodies typically consist of a cab and a cargo compartment. The main functions of the car body are to protect the driver and create a good aerodynamic environment. A well-designed body not only enhances performance but also reflects the owner's personality. In terms of structure, car bodies are mainly divided into body-on-frame and unibody types. Car Electrical Equipment: This mainly includes the battery, generator, voltage regulator, starter, ignition system, instruments, lighting devices, audio equipment, windshield wipers, etc.
