The usage method of the Civic's engine start-stop system is: The engine start-stop function is enabled by default. If you need to turn off this function, press the A-circle OFF button located at the upper right of the gear lever, which should be used in conjunction with the auto-hold feature. The start-stop function only stops the engine from working, while the oil system remains operational. Although the engine is not rotating, oil continues to circulate inside the engine, ensuring better lubrication and engine protection upon restart. The Civic features a MacPherson strut front suspension and a multi-link rear suspension. It is equipped with a 1.5T turbocharged engine delivering a maximum horsepower of 177 PS, paired with a CVT transmission.

Can You Die from Sleeping in a New Energy Vehicle with the Air Conditioning On?

It is not advisable to sleep in a new energy vehicle with the air conditioning on. Here are the relevant explanations: 1. The air inside a car in a closed state is very limited. Prolonged exposure to such an enclosed environment can lead to illness due to the stale air. Moreover, sleeping with the car's air conditioning on is extremely dangerous. Without fresh air circulation and flow, carbon monoxide gas can accumulate, which is highly harmful to the body. 2. Back and waist pain: Sleeping in a car often results in discomfort due to the lack of proper seating and back support. Maintaining one position for an extended period, especially when leaning against the seat, can concentrate pressure on the waist. This sleeping posture increases the burden on the waist, leading to a feeling of increasing fatigue the longer you sleep.

Why is it not recommended to change the rear axle oil of a car?

Here is the relevant introduction about the rear axle oil of a car: 1. Lubrication effect: Rear axle oil is gear oil, which not only provides excellent lubrication but also has a certain cooling effect. If the rear axle oil is not changed for a long time, it may deteriorate, and naturally, it can no longer protect the rear axle gears, thereby accelerating gear wear and even seriously affecting the car's fuel economy. 2. Replacement cycle: There is no fixed interval for changing rear axle oil; it depends on the car's driving conditions and environment. Additionally, different oil brands may have varying intervals, generally around 20,000-30,000 km. For new cars, the rear axle oil should be changed during the 12,000 km maintenance, and then checked every 24,000 km thereafter. If obvious discoloration or thinning is observed, it should be replaced immediately.

What is the center line demarcation for one-way traffic lanes?

One-way traffic lane demarcation center lines are traffic markings used to separate traffic flows moving in the same direction, typically consisting of white dashed/solid lines or yellow dashed/solid lines. Below are relevant details: 1. Road traffic markings: Traffic markings (Traffic Index Line) refer to identifiers on road surfaces that convey guidance, restrictions, warnings and other traffic information to road users through lines, arrows, text, vertical markings, raised pavement markers and contour markings. Their purpose is to regulate and guide traffic, and they can be used in conjunction with signs or independently. 2. Characteristics: Road traffic markings are primarily painted on road surfaces, enduring sun exposure, rain, snow, frost and vehicle impact abrasion, thus requiring strict performance standards. They must have short drying times and simple application procedures to minimize traffic disruption.

What Causes the Smell of Leather in the Car?

It is normal to smell leather in the car. Here are specific explanations for the smell of leather in the car: 1. For new cars: It is generally normal for new cars to have this smell. Various rubber/plastic components in new cars are fresh and may produce this odor under high temperatures, which will gradually fade away until it becomes unnoticeable over time. 2. Someone burning materials near the car: If rubber or plastic products are being burned nearby, this smell may be produced and enter the car through the external air circulation system. 3. Mistaking gasoline smell for burning rubber smell/incomplete combustion: For example, when starting the car in winter, due to low temperatures, it becomes harder to atomize gasoline, affecting combustion. Some unburned gasoline molecules may exit through the exhaust pipe and then enter the car via the external air circulation system.
