Summer tire pressure of 220 is not acceptable. According to the international GBT2978-2008 standard, the standard tire pressure should be between 2.4-2.5 bar. A pressure of 220 is below the minimum standard value, so it is not normal. Hazards of low tire pressure: Increased friction coefficient with the road surface, leading to higher fuel consumption; Causes the steering wheel to feel heavy and increases the risk of veering, compromising driving safety; Increases the movement of various parts of the tire, causing abnormal heat due to excessive rolling; Reduces the functionality of the cord and rubber, leading to delamination or cord breakage, and excessive friction with the rim, causing damage to the bead area and abnormal wear; Multiplies the friction between the tire and the ground, causing a sharp rise in tire temperature, softening the tire, and drastically reducing its strength. High-speed driving may result in a blowout; Increases tire deformation, making the tire sidewalls prone to cracking and generating flexing motion, leading to excessive heat, rubber aging, fatigue in the cord layers, and cord breakage. It also increases the tire's contact area with the ground, accelerating shoulder wear.

What are the differences between imported and joint-venture cars?

The differences between imported and joint-venture cars are as follows: 1. Parts suppliers. Joint-venture cars refer to finished products of foreign brands manufactured domestically. Even though they are made-in-China products, they utilize foreign brands' "techniques" in design, technology, production lines, etc. Additionally, many parts are also produced abroad. In fact, parts for purely imported models also come from different countries and factories. 2. Quality and craftsmanship. Currently, domestic automobile manufacturers use internationally standardized production processes, tools, and error-proofing measures, with a full set of quality control procedures. 3. Core technology - engine. The chassis, transmission, etc., form the core components and technologies of a car. Domestic joint-venture automakers' production involves interlinked steps such as stamping, welding, painting, and assembly. Many joint-venture automakers also have their own engine and transmission factories in China, introducing foreign brand technologies, so the core technologies are not too inferior.

What to Do When Your Car Gets Scratched and Dented?

Here are the methods to deal with a scratched and dented car: 1. If the damage is not severe, you can directly cover it with a car sticker, which is both aesthetically pleasing and cost-effective. Alternatively, you can purchase a suction-type repair kit online and follow the instructions to restore the dent. If you are not in a hurry to use the car, you can also take it to a repair shop for professional treatment. The dent can be fixed through metal sheet repair, which usually takes 3-5 days. 2. If the dent is more severe and cannot be repaired, it will need to be replaced, which requires a visit to a 4S shop for repairs. To avoid further dents, you can install protective covers on the car doors, which can prevent secondary dents caused by opening the door or hitting walls and other sharp objects.

What is the correct method for shifting gears in a manual transmission?

The correct method for shifting gears in a manual transmission is to place the palm facing downward, cover the head of the gear lever, grip the lever firmly with all five fingers, and then proceed to shift gears. More knowledge about gear shifting is as follows: 1. Gear shifting refers to the transmission, which is used to change the torque and speed of the engine crankshaft to meet the different requirements of driving wheel traction and speed under various driving conditions such as starting, accelerating, driving, and overcoming road obstacles. 2. When starting, use 1st gear. When the tachometer needle reaches around 2000 RPM, you can shift to 2nd gear. Then, when the tachometer reaches around 2000 RPM again, shift to 3rd gear. Next, observe the speedometer. When the speedometer needle points to around 40 MPH, you can shift to 4th gear. At this point, the car can drive for a while. Then, when the speedometer needle points to around 60 MPH, it indicates that you can now shift to the highest gear, 5th gear.

What Situations Are Prone to Cause Fatigued Driving?

Causes of fatigued driving are as follows: 1. Sleep deprivation is the primary cause of driver fatigue. Poor sleep quality leads to insufficient sleep, resulting in both physical and mental fatigue. Factors such as failing to balance work and rest, prolonged driving, continuous driving under complex road conditions and high speeds, and excessive mental concentration are all significant contributors to driving fatigue. When severely sleep-deprived, drivers are required to focus intensely on operating the vehicle. 2. On the road, engine noise, vibrations from the vehicle body, low visibility outside the vehicle, heavy traffic congestion, mixed pedestrian and vehicle flow, and extremely poor road conditions can make drivers anxious and tense. Prolonged exposure to such driving environments demands considerable mental effort from drivers, making them prone to fatigue.

What are the symptoms of a malfunction in the Magotan transmission mechatronic unit?

Magotan transmission mechatronic unit malfunction symptoms: The Magotan exhibits a fault where it fails to move when accelerating during a cold start while driving. The seven-speed dry dual-clutch transmission installed in the Magotan may, after traveling 100,000 kilometers, experience not only mechatronic unit failures but also potential malfunctions in components such as the clutch. Therefore, it is necessary to remove the transmission for a detailed inspection. The steps are as follows: 1. Prepare to remove the clutch retaining ring and inspect the clutch. 2. If the gap between the two sets of clutches is found to be significantly excessive and shows wear, it is necessary to replace them with new clutches to resolve the issue. 3. If severe damage to the mechatronic unit is detected during inspection, replacement is required. Common causes of mechatronic unit malfunctions include frequent gear shifting, insufficient or deteriorated mechatronic unit oil.
