Pull up to park, release to start. Here is additional information: 1. Parking brake: Commonly referred to as the handbrake, its function is to provide resistance when parking to prevent the car from rolling. The parking brake, also known as the handbrake or the parking gear in automatic transmissions, locks the drive shaft or rear wheels. The force of the parking brake is much weaker than that of the service brake, just enough to prevent the car from rolling on a slope. 2. Electronic parking brake system: This integrates the temporary braking during driving with the long-term braking after parking, and uses electronic control to achieve parking braking. The electronic handbrake employs electronic control to achieve parking braking, with the same working principle as the mechanical handbrake—both rely on the friction between the brake disc and brake pads to control parking braking. The only difference is that the control method has changed from the mechanical handbrake lever to an electronic button.

Are T-Equipped Cars More Fuel-Efficient?

Cars with a T naturally represent better fuel efficiency. Below is an introduction to T-equipped cars: T-equipped cars: The T stands for turbocharger, like in 1.8T. This T does not activate at startup; it only engages when the car reaches a certain horsepower, typically between 60~80 hp. At high speeds, a T-equipped engine is more fuel-efficient than a naturally aspirated engine of the same displacement, achieving better fuel economy while also significantly increasing RPM. For example, a 1.8T engine performs similarly to a 2.0L engine. Turbocharger lifespan: However, turbochargers have a limited lifespan. For regular household use, they should last several years. If the driver is skilled, it might last an additional year. After that, replacing it is straightforward.

Should You Use First Gear or Handbrake for Long-Term Parking?

For long-term parking, it is generally recommended to leave the car in first gear. If parked on an uphill slope, the handbrake should be engaged to ensure the vehicle remains stationary. Relevant details about the handbrake are as follows: The handbrake, professionally referred to as an auxiliary brake, operates differently from the main braking system. It utilizes a steel cable connected to the rear brake shoes to apply braking force. Prolonged use of the handbrake can cause the steel cable to undergo plastic deformation, which is irreversible and reduces its effectiveness over time, increasing the handbrake's travel distance. Additionally, the handbrake system includes a return spring. When the handbrake is engaged, the spring stretches; when released, it returns to its original length. However, long-term use can also lead to deformation of the spring.

What is the size of the rear glass for the Civic?

The size of the rear glass for the Civic is 140*75cm. Glass Breakage Insurance: This is a type of commercial insurance where the insurance company is responsible for compensating for the loss when the insured vehicle's glass breaks independently during use. Independent glass breakage refers to situations where only the windshield and window glass of the insured vehicle are damaged (excluding headlight and mirror glass). Ensuring Glass Safety: If insured at the imported glass rate, the insurance company compensates based on the price of imported glass; if insured at the domestic glass rate, compensation is based on the price of domestic glass. Purchasing glass insurance for your car can effectively ensure the safety of the glass, allowing the owner to drive with peace of mind.
