Manual transmission fluid needs to be replaced, but it has a relatively long service life. Generally, it should be replaced every 3 years or after driving approximately 80,000-100,000 kilometers. More information about manual transmission fluid is as follows: 1. There is no fixed interval for replacing manual transmission fluid because manual transmissions have a simpler structure compared to automatic transmissions and more mature technology, resulting in lower requirements for transmission fluid. Therefore, the service life of manual transmission fluid is longer than that of automatic transmission fluid. 2. Regular maintenance of the transmission should be performed. After driving for a certain period, check the transmission for any oil leaks and also inspect the condition of the transmission fluid. If the transmission fluid level is insufficient, it should be replenished promptly. If the fluid color darkens or the quality deteriorates, it should be replaced immediately.

Can You Make a U-Turn in the Left-Turn Waiting Zone?

You can make a U-turn in the left-turn waiting zone, but only if the waiting area is marked with dashed lines. If it's a solid line, U-turns are not allowed, and you must wait until the left-turn green light is on. When making a U-turn at a traffic light, you need to observe the signal indications. If the opposing lane has a green light for straight movement, you must wait until the opposing lane's signal turns red before executing the U-turn. During the U-turn, pay attention to the movement of vehicles in front and behind to avoid unnecessary accidents due to high speed, where other drivers may not react in time. The party violating traffic laws will bear most of the responsibility.
