Shifting to P gear is necessary when refueling and parking. Below are the relevant details about P gear: 1. Principle: It mechanically locks the output shaft of the transmission to secure the vehicle and prevent it from moving. 2. Vehicle parking sequence: After the car comes to a stop on a level road, shift the gear from D to P, then engage the parking brake to complete the parking process, and finally turn off the engine. 3. Safe parking: If you only apply the brakes without shifting to P gear, the vehicle may lose its intended braking capability. The safest and most secure practice is to shift to P gear only after the car has come to a complete stop.

Will the Car Continue to Rust After Touch-Up Painting?

Do not leave paint peeling on your car unattended for long periods, as it can lead to rust. During daily driving, minor scratches are inevitable. Rust primarily occurs when the metal body panels are exposed to the external environment after collisions or scrapes. Occasional scratches, small stones hitting the body while driving, and prolonged outdoor parking can cause rust to appear even on the best-maintained cars. More relevant information is as follows: Note 1: Areas prone to water accumulation, such as the inner and outer edges of wheel arches, the bottom and corners of doors and trunks, are susceptible to rust over time. If the drainage holes at the bottom of the doors are blocked or not functioning smoothly, water seeping in during rain or driving can accumulate inside the doors, leading to rust from the inside out. By the time it's noticed, it may be difficult to address. Note 2: Car owners can take the following measures to prevent rust: regularly ensure that drainage holes in doors and other parts of the body remain clear. Areas around keyholes, window seals, and moving parts of wiper arms are also prone to rust and should be frequently wiped with a dry cloth.

What are the manifestations of incorrect toe-in?

Manifestations include unstable driving, swaying of the vehicle, or even steering wheel shaking when the car is driving at high speeds or at a certain higher speed. Below is relevant information about the toe-in value of a car: 1. Function: Proper front wheel toe-in can give the wheels a tendency to turn inward, offsetting the adverse effects caused by front wheel camber, allowing the wheels to roll straight without lateral dragging, reducing abnormal tire wear, and ensuring the steering can automatically return to center after turning. 2. Consequences of excessive toe-in: Both excessive positive toe-in and negative toe-in can lead to uneven tire wear, produce tire grinding sounds during turns, which shortens the tire's lifespan. It may even cause the vehicle to pull to one side and vibrate during high-speed driving.
