A Vios traveling 357 kilometers on a full tank of gas is relatively fuel-consuming, as it typically can travel around 500 kilometers. Here are some driving methods to reduce fuel consumption: 1. Avoid prolonged engine idling: When idling, the engine consumes significantly more fuel than during normal driving. Therefore, it's best to turn off the engine if the vehicle is stationary for long periods, such as when waiting for someone. During cold starts, warming up the car should not exceed 1 minute; maintaining a few minutes of low-speed driving is sufficient. 2. Maintain good driving habits: Gentle and smooth driving is the most fuel-efficient. During acceleration, avoid stomping on the accelerator. The correct method is to accelerate smoothly and maintain a steady speed once a certain velocity is reached. In congested areas, always assess the road ahead to avoid sudden braking.

What is the Difference Between Dry Dual Clutch and Wet Dual Clutch?

Dual-clutch transmissions can be mainly divided into two types: dry dual clutch and wet dual clutch. The difference between these two clutches lies in the connecting medium between the driving disc and the driven disc. The dry dual clutch relies on air for transmission, while the wet dual clutch uses oil. Here are the details about dry and wet dual clutches: 1. Dry Clutch: A manual friction plate clutch with low cost and high mechanical transmission efficiency; the downside is that operation requires mastering specific techniques, is relatively cumbersome, and has a high failure rate. 2. Wet Clutch: An automatic oil-immersed friction plate clutch, which requires the design of a hydraulic coupler or torque converter to work in conjunction with the power flexible connection. It has a high cost and low mechanical transmission efficiency; the advantage is ease of operation and a low failure rate.

What lights should be turned on when driving at night under poor lighting conditions without street lights?

You should turn on the headlights, clearance lights, and tail lights. Additional information: Legal provisions: Article 58 of the "Regulations for the Implementation of the Road Traffic Safety Law of the People's Republic of China": When a motor vehicle is driving at night without street lights, under poor lighting conditions, or encountering low visibility conditions such as fog, rain, snow, dust, or hail, it should turn on the headlights, clearance lights, and tail lights. However, when a following vehicle is driving close to the vehicle in front in the same direction, high beams should not be used. Motor vehicles driving in foggy conditions should turn on fog lights and hazard warning flashers. Precautions: When overtaking at night, first flash the headlights and turn signals, observe whether there are obstacles or broken-down vehicles on the right side of the vehicle being overtaken, and judge whether the vehicle being overtaken will suddenly leave the original lane to avoid obstacles or other vehicles on the right side during overtaking. When overtaking, increase the lateral distance from the vehicle being overtaken and do not immediately return to the driving lane to avoid scraping the vehicle being overtaken.

When is a Wheel Alignment Needed?

Wheel alignment is based on the four-wheel parameters of the vehicle, adjusted to ensure good driving performance and certain reliability. The following situations require a wheel alignment: 1. Replacing tires or after a collision: After replacing tires or experiencing a collision, the specifications and wear levels of each tire may differ, leading to unstable driving. 2. Excessive wear on one side of the tire: Excessive wear on one side can cause misalignment, necessitating a wheel alignment for correction. 3. Steering wheel resistance while driving: If the steering wheel encounters resistance while driving, it indicates an issue with the vehicle's steering system, requiring a wheel alignment for diagnosis. 4. Severe vehicle drift: During normal driving, if the vehicle slowly drifts to the left or right even when the steering wheel is straight, it indicates a problem with the vehicle's directional system, requiring a wheel alignment.

What are the symptoms of insufficient fuel pump pressure?

Symptoms of insufficient fuel pump pressure are as follows: 1. The fuel pump under the rear seat makes a "buzzing" noise while the vehicle is moving. 2. The vehicle lacks power during acceleration, especially with noticeable hesitation during sudden acceleration. 3. Difficulty starting the vehicle, including failure to ignite. 4. The engine warning light on the instrument cluster remains illuminated. Causes of low fuel pump pressure include: 1. Wear of the oil seal at the rear end of the fuel pump drive gear shaft or loose pipe connections, allowing air into the fuel line, low fuel level in the tank, or a dirty filter. 2. Wear or jamming of the fuel pump gear's end face bearing, leading to excessive axial clearance. 3. Damage to the needle roller bearing, causing abnormal gear meshing and scoring of the fuel pump housing. 4. Jamming of the fuel pump regulator or relief valve, insufficient spring tension, or broken springs.

How often should Toyota CVT transmission fluid be changed?

CVT transmission fluid has a slightly longer replacement interval compared to other automatic transmissions, generally every 2-3 years or approximately 60,000-80,000 kilometers. Here are the potential risks of not changing Toyota CVT transmission fluid for a long time: 1. Transmission fluid working under high-speed and high-temperature conditions for extended periods can deteriorate and evaporate, thereby accelerating the wear of mechanical components and, in severe cases, damaging internal transmission parts. 2. If the transmission fluid is not changed for a long time, the car may experience weak starts when cold. During driving, slight slipping phenomena may occur. 3. Long-term failure to change the transmission fluid can cause the fluid to thicken, potentially obstructing the transmission cooler, leading to excessively high transmission fluid temperatures and increased wear. Additional information: There are generally two methods for changing transmission fluid: gravity drain and machine flush.

Why Can't the Car Start with the Key?

Car key can't start the car refers to the situation where you have already entered the car but cannot ignite the engine, rather than being unable to open the car door. There are three main reasons why a car key might fail to start the car: 1. The steering wheel is locked: This is a normal anti-theft feature. Simply turn the steering wheel slightly clockwise or counterclockwise and gently turn the key to unlock it. 2. Incorrect gear position: For automatic transmission cars, to start the engine, the gear lever must be in N (Neutral) or P (Park) position. If the gear is not in N or P, the car might move immediately upon ignition, which is highly dangerous. Just shift the gear back to P and try starting again. 3. Car malfunction: If the car still cannot start in P position, or if the dashboard shows an abnormal gear indication, it is necessary to seek immediate repair. The issue could be due to a faulty electronic gear sensor or an electro-pneumatic valve.
