What Type of Transmission Fluid is Best for Cars?

Car transmission fluid types depend on the transmission: manual transmissions use gear oil, while automatic transmissions use transmission fluid. Below is relevant information about transmission fluid: 1. Functions of transmission fluid: Changing the transmission ratio to expand the range of torque and speed variations in the drive wheels. Adapting to frequently changing driving conditions, allowing the engine to operate under favorable circumstances. Ensuring the car can only reverse when the engine's rotation direction remains unchanged. Utilizing interrupted power transmission to facilitate gear shifting or power output. 2. Proper maintenance methods for automatic transmissions: Check the automatic transmission fluid by testing its viscosity between fingers; replace the fluid if it changes color or has a burnt smell.

Where is the Fuel Filler Door Switch?

Different car models have different fuel filler door switches. Notes: Before driving, the owner should check the fuel gauge and calculate whether refueling is needed during the trip based on the distance and the fuel gauge reading. It is recommended to refuel in advance and not wait until the fuel warning light comes on. The fuel pump is located inside the fuel tank and operates at a high temperature when running continuously. Being submerged in fuel helps to cool it effectively. Reminder: When the fuel warning light comes on, it indicates that the fuel level is below the fuel pump. If you always wait until the light comes on to refuel, it will shorten the service life of the fuel pump. Too little fuel in the tank may also cause the fuel pump to burn out. It is better to refuel in the morning or evening, avoiding the hot midday sun and high temperatures. This is because gasoline is charged by volume rather than by weight, and it expands when hot and contracts when cold.

How to Use a 360-Degree Panoramic Imaging System?

Vehicles equipped with a 360-degree panoramic imaging system feature a toggle button that allows drivers to switch viewing angles. Some models come with a touch-enabled central control screen, enabling direct touch operation for angle switching. Below are key details about panoramic imaging systems: 1. Operational Principle: The 360-degree panoramic imaging system integrates multiple wide-angle cameras positioned at the front, rear, and sides of the vehicle. These cameras simultaneously capture and process multiple video feeds into a single 360-degree bird's-eye view of the vehicle's surroundings, displayed on the central control screen. This allows drivers to monitor real-time footage from the front, rear, left, and right sides of the vehicle, enhancing safety by preventing accidents and enabling more intuitive driving. 2. Installation Process: The front camera is mounted on an appropriate grille or emblem at the vehicle's front. Side mirror cameras are installed at the base of the left and right side mirrors—universal types may require drilling for installation, while specialized versions can directly replace the original mirrors. The rear camera is placed on the license plate light cover or trunk handle. It's crucial to align front and rear cameras along the vehicle's central axis during installation.
