Is it a problem if the rearview mirror folds after hitting someone?

Rearview mirror collision and folding is considered a minor traffic accident. Below is relevant information about rearview mirrors: Classification: interior rearview mirror, exterior rearview mirror, and downward-view mirror. Structural principle: Rearview mirrors involve a field of vision issue, which refers to the range that the mirror surface can reflect. The industry has proposed three key elements of field of vision: the distance between the driver's eyes and the rearview mirror; the size of the rearview mirror; and the radius of curvature of the rearview mirror. These three elements are interrelated—when the distance and size of the rearview mirror are the same, the smaller the radius of curvature of the mirror surface, the larger the field of vision reflected. When the radius of curvature of the mirror surface is the same, the larger the size of the mirror surface, the larger the field of vision reflected. Additionally, rearview mirrors also have a reflectivity index. The higher the reflectivity, the clearer the image reflected by the mirror surface. The level of reflectivity is related to the reflective film material on the inner surface of the mirror. As the speed of ordinary cars increases, wind resistance and noise become important considerations for designers. Therefore, the exterior rearview mirror's contour must comply with aerodynamics, using smooth lines to minimize wind resistance and noise.

What type of engine oil is suitable for the Sylphy?

Sylphy is suitable for 5W30 engine oil. 5W30 refers to the viscosity grade of the engine oil. The number before the W indicates the cold start performance, with a smaller number indicating better low-temperature fluidity of the oil. The W signifies that it can be used in winter, while the number after the W represents the kinematic viscosity of the oil, with a higher number indicating higher viscosity. Taking the 2021 Sylphy as an example, its body dimensions are: length 4631mm, width 1760mm, height 1503mm, wheelbase 2700mm, minimum ground clearance 166mm, fuel tank capacity 50 liters, and trunk capacity 510 liters.

Can You Add Water If the Coolant Is Too Low?

You can add water if the coolant is too low. The methods to check if the coolant is too low are: 1. Start the vehicle and let the system perform a self-check. Observe the vehicle dashboard, where there will be a fluid level indicator; 2. Pull the handle located near the driver's seat to open the hood, then check the coolant reservoir, which is marked with high and low level indicators. Coolant refers to a liquid containing special additives, mainly used in liquid-cooled engine cooling systems. Precautions for its use include: 1. Different types of antifreeze should not be mixed; 2. Do not open the radiator cap or drain valve immediately after driving; 3. When replacing the coolant, ensure all the old antifreeze is completely removed and the radiator is thoroughly cleaned.

What Are the Basic Components of a Manual Transmission?

Manual transmission basic components: input shaft, output shaft, differential, gear sets for each gear, bearings, synchronizer, shift mechanism, shift fork, oil seal, lubricating oil, housing, output flange. Manual transmission is also called mechanical transmission, which means you must manually move the gear lever to change the gear meshing position of the transmission, alter the gear ratio, and achieve the purpose of shifting. Most car manual transmissions are four-speed or five-speed stepped gear transmissions, usually equipped with synchronizers for convenient shifting and low noise. When operating a manual transmission, you must depress the clutch to move the gear lever. Depending on the relative position of the shift handle and the transmission, there are two structural types: direct control type and remote control type.
