The method for using a clay bar is as follows: 1. Rinse the car body with clean water to remove surface dust and dirt; 2. Knead the clay bar properly before use; 3. Evenly spray clean water or lubricant on the cleaning area, the clay bar, and your hands; 4. Move the clay bar back and forth in straight lines over the cleaning area with your hand until the area feels smooth without any particles; 5. After cleaning, wipe the area with a clean towel. The car clay bar, also known as a detailing clay bar, has the function of removing dirt without damaging the car's paint surface.

Is Engine Braking the Same as Regular Braking?

Engine braking is not the same as regular braking. The engine braking system is merely a deceleration device, not a vehicle stopping mechanism. It cannot replace the service brake system of a car. In emergency situations or when complete vehicle stoppage is required, the service brake (i.e., regular braking) system must be used. Below are guidelines for proper utilization of engine braking: 1. Steep terrains like long descents or rugged mountain roads: Engine braking must be employed in conjunction with intermittent braking to control speed. Prolonged use of brakes can impair braking efficiency or even lead to brake failure. Therefore, under such conditions, it's advisable to take periodic stops to allow brake drums and shoes to cool before continuing. 2. Slippery surfaces such as oil-coated roads or muddy/icy/snowy terrain: Maximize engine braking and flexibly use the parking brake to minimize foot brake application. If foot braking is necessary, prefer intermittent braking and avoid abrupt full-force application to prevent skidding. 3. Key considerations: When using engine braking, select appropriate gears based on road conditions and vehicle load, and apply suitable wheel braking according to speed. Too low a gear results in excessively slow speeds; too high a gear causes excessive wheel brake usage.

What to Do If Construction Wall Paint Gets on Your Car?

If construction wall paint gets on your car, here are several solutions: 1. You can use industrial alcohol or paint remover to wipe it off. Be patient during the process—wait until the paint softens before scrubbing. 2. You can take your car to a 4S shop or an auto detailing shop for cleaning. Here are some additional details: 1. Construction wall paint is waterproof, color-retentive, stain-resistant, aging-resistant, and has strong adhesion, so paint that falls or splashes onto the car body won’t easily blow away and is difficult to clean. 2. Paint on the car can affect the gloss of the car’s finish. If it splashes onto the windshield, it can directly impair visibility while driving, reducing safety.

How often should the oil be changed for a 7-speed wet dual-clutch transmission?

7-speed wet dual-clutch transmission oil should be changed every 60,000 to 80,000 kilometers. Below is relevant information: 1. Working principle: The transmission relies on transmission oil for heat dissipation, lubrication, and hydraulic power transfer. If the transmission oil is used for too long, it will significantly reduce the performance of the transmission. When the transmission oil becomes severely contaminated, it can also lead to a series of transmission failures. 2. Hazards of not changing the oil in time: Failing to change the transmission oil promptly can result in weak starts when the car is cold. Additionally, transmission oil deteriorates and evaporates under high-speed and high-temperature conditions, which can accelerate the wear of mechanical components and, in severe cases, damage internal transmission parts. It can also cause the transmission oil to thicken, making it easier for the transmission cooler to become blocked, leading to excessively high transmission oil temperatures, increased wear, and minor slipping phenomena during vehicle operation.

Why should you accelerate to 60 km/h as soon as possible when entering the highway?

Introduction to the reason for accelerating to 60 km/h as soon as possible when entering the highway: To avoid affecting vehicles traveling on the main lane when merging into traffic. Additional information: On the highway, 60 km/h is the minimum speed limit. Vehicles traveling below the minimum speed limit by less than 20% will not be fined, but those traveling below the minimum speed limit by more than 20% will be fined and receive 3 penalty points. If the speed falls below the minimum limit due to special circumstances such as road construction or traffic congestion, no fine will be imposed. Motor vehicle drivers who violate the regulations with any of the following behaviors will be fined 50 yuan and may have their driver's license suspended for six months: 1. Carrying passengers in violation of regulations. 2. Carrying cargo exceeding 30% of the approved load capacity. 3. Transporting hazardous materials or carrying cargo that exceeds the specified length, width, or height without approval or not in accordance with regulations. 4. Driving more than 20 km/h above the maximum speed limit. 5. Driving below the minimum speed limit under normal conditions. 6. Failing to maintain the required safe distance between vehicles. 7. Failing to wear a seatbelt as required.

Can I Apply for a Replacement of My Lost Driver's License on 12123?

You cannot apply for a replacement of your lost driver's license on 12123. Here is the relevant information: 1. Driver's License Replacement: If your driver's license is lost, you should go to the vehicle management office (VMO), and any local VMO can handle the replacement. According to national regulations, if an motor vehicle driver's license is lost, the driver should apply for a replacement at the VMO where the license was originally issued or at any other VMO outside the original jurisdiction. When applying, you need to fill out an application form and submit the driver's identity proof and a written statement declaring the loss of the driver's license. If the application meets the requirements, the VMO will issue a replacement driver's license within one day. 2. Reporting Loss: There is no need to report the loss of a driver's license; you only need to apply for a replacement at the VMO promptly. However, when applying for a replacement, you need to fill out a written statement declaring the loss of the driver's license, confirming that the license is indeed lost and stating that any improper consequences caused by the lost license in the future are not the responsibility of the vehicle owner. Once the replacement is completed, the original driver's license, even if found, will be considered invalid.
