The Elantra CVT transmission uses a chain. Below is relevant information about CVT: 1. Principle of CVT: There is a drive shaft on one side and an output shaft on the other, connected by a pressure steel belt in the middle. Different gear ratios are achieved by adjusting the working radius of the pressure steel belt. The pressure steel belt operates between two sets of cone discs, with one half of each cone disc capable of moving slightly. When the cone discs move inward, they squeeze the pressure steel belt, increasing its working radius and thus achieving continuously variable transmission. 2. Pressure steel belt: It consists of hundreds of special high-strength steel plates arranged horizontally and connected by two sets of high-strength flexible steel belt rings. This design ensures both flexibility and rigidity during rotation. In fact, power transmission relies more on thrust rather than pull, and the horizontally arranged steel plates provide sufficient friction. Combined with the strong squeezing force of the cone discs, it effectively ensures power transmission.

What is the Meaning of Highway Lane Markings?

Highway lane markings come in various forms, including speed indication markings, directional guidance markings, and lane guidance markings. Below is an introduction to highway lane markings: 1. Lane markings: Generally, there are numerous markings on the roadway, such as variable direction lane lines, directional lane lines, guiding lines, and one-way traffic lines. Some of these lines allow lane changes, while others do not, and some only permit unidirectional lane changes. 2.

If the lines are dashed, lane changes are allowed. If the lines are solid, vehicles are not permitted to change lanes.

Reasons for Car Shaking and Engine Warning Light Flashing Temporarily Then Turning Off

When the air-fuel mixture in the engine changes, the exhaust emissions will exceed standards. At this point, the control unit will record a fault code and illuminate the warning light to alert the driver. If you feel severe engine shaking in the cabin, it indicates that one or multiple cylinders are not functioning properly. The possible causes are as follows: 1. Spark plugs not replaced for a long time: Due to prolonged use or installation issues, spark plugs may fail to spark or spark poorly. 2. Ignition coil damage: If the ignition coil of one cylinder is damaged, that cylinder cannot operate normally. 3. Internal short circuit in fuel pump: An internal short circuit in the fuel pump can prevent normal supply of low-pressure fuel, causing engine shaking or stalling.

What are the reasons for not being able to schedule the Subject 4 exam?

Here are the specific reasons why you may not be able to schedule the Subject 4 exam: 1. Low priority: When there are too many people scheduling at the same time, your priority may be lower than others. There's no need to rush to log in and schedule, as the allocation of slots is based on priority. Even if you schedule early, you may not succeed if your priority is lower than others. For first-time scheduling of the Subject 1 exam, the scheduling time is determined by the date when the user initially applied for a motor vehicle driver's license. For non-first-time scheduling of subject exams, the scheduling time is determined by the date of the last exam taken. 2. System issues: Sometimes, when the system is under excessive load, some students may not be able to schedule their exams and can only wait for the system to be repaired.
