When parallel parking to the left, you should first turn the steering wheel to the left; when parking to the right, first turn to the right. Here are the parallel parking techniques: Keep the speed slow: Shift to R gear, slowly release the clutch, and maintain a very slow speed. When the small rear window of the car or the No. 1 marker (the left front marker of the parking space) aligns with the rear wheel, press the clutch firmly—do not brake or pause for too long. Press the clutch firmly: Once the car is stable, turn the steering wheel one and a half turns to the right, then slowly release the clutch to let the car reverse. At this point, focus on the interior rearview mirror. When the No. 4 marker (the right rear marker of the parking space) aligns with the middle of the car, press the clutch firmly (remember not to brake). Check the rearview mirror: Turn the steering wheel one and a half turns back to the left, then slowly release the clutch to let the car reverse. Now, watch the left rear wheel in the left side mirror. When the left rear wheel touches the left line of the parking space, press the clutch firmly, turn the steering wheel one and a half turns to the left, and slowly release the clutch to let the car enter the space. You can now look ahead or check the left side mirror. Check the rear of the car: Once the car is in the parking space, press the clutch firmly, turn your head to check if the rear of the car is properly positioned. If not, release the clutch to continue reversing; if it is, press the clutch firmly, brake, and shift to neutral. The parallel parking test is now complete.

What kind of oil should be added to the tire changer oil cup?

Tire changer oil cup can be filled with engine oil or sewing machine oil. Tire Changer: The tire changer, also known as a tire dismounting machine or tire mounting and dismounting machine, is a vehicle maintenance equipment used to assist in the removal and installation of car tires during repairs, making the tire dismounting process more convenient and smooth. Currently, there are various types of tire changers, including pneumatic and hydraulic models. The most commonly used is the pneumatic tire changer. Maintenance and Precautions for Tire Changers: Before performing maintenance, it is essential to disconnect the power and air supply; after each day's work, thoroughly clean the machine and regularly lubricate all sliding and rotating parts; ensure the gearbox has sufficient lubricating oil (No. 20 mechanical oil) - the oil level should be visible through the oil window. To add oil, open the plastic cover at the center of the workbench, unscrew the bolt, and add oil through the bolt hole.

Can the Tank 300 use 95 octane gasoline?

Tank 300 recommends using 92 octane gasoline and does not recommend using 95 octane gasoline. The difference between 92 octane and 95 octane gasoline: Their main components are that 92 octane gasoline consists of 92% isooctane and 8% n-heptane, while 95 octane consists of 95% isooctane and 5% n-heptane. The reason 95 octane gasoline is slightly more expensive is due to the higher proportion of isooctane. Correct method for selecting gasoline octane rating: Check the sticker inside the fuel filler cap. The inner side of the car's fuel filler cap always has a sticker (recommended standard), which is the most accurate and scientific standard calculated by engineers based on the engine's technical parameters.

How Far Can a Compact Spare Tire Travel?

Compact spare tires should not be driven for more than 100 kilometers. Here are precautions for using a spare tire: 1. Regularly inspect the spare tire: The inspection mainly focuses on tire pressure, wear, and cracks. Replace the tire promptly if the tread wears down to the wear indicator line. If there are fine cracks on the tire sidewall, avoid long-distance or high-speed driving, as it increases the risk of a blowout. 2. Keep oil products away from the spare tire: Since tires are primarily made of rubber, storing lubricants or other oil products in the trunk can cause tire swelling and corrosion if they come into contact with the tire, significantly reducing its lifespan. If the tire gets contaminated with oil, wash it off immediately using a neutral detergent. 3. Spare tire lifespan is about 4 years: As tires are rubber products, prolonged storage can lead to aging. Generally, the aging period for tires is around 4 years.

How many kilometers can a Nissan X-Trail engine run?

Nissan X-Trail has a fuel tank capacity of 65L, with an official fuel consumption of 6.0L/100Km in suburban conditions. Theoretically, it can run over 1000Km. Factors affecting fuel consumption: Driver's driving habits, road conditions, weight of items placed in the car, whether the air conditioning is on, and whether the vehicle is in the break-in period, all these factors can affect the vehicle's fuel consumption. Judging whether refueling is needed: Whether refueling is needed can be determined by whether the fuel gauge light is on. Due to different fuel tank capacities, engine displacements, and fuel consumption rates among various car models, the remaining fuel amount when the fuel gauge light comes on varies. Generally, it is about 12.5% of the fuel tank capacity. Based on estimates for most models on the market, it's approximately 10 liters.

What are the signs that indicate the need for throttle body cleaning?

There are two scenarios that require throttle body cleaning. One is routine maintenance when the engine experiences idle shaking or poor acceleration. The other is after maintenance involving power disconnection, where the throttle body needs cleaning to rematch the learned values. Below are precautions for throttle body cleaning: 1. Do not arbitrarily move the valve plate: Especially when the power is not disconnected. If working alone, power must be disconnected before moving the valve. If working with two people, one person should turn the ignition to ON and press the accelerator inside the car, while the other cleans the throttle body in the engine compartment. 2. Throttle body cleaning requires rematching learned values: If only cleaning the throttle body, it is recommended to work with two people. For some vehicle models, disconnecting the battery may cause the navigation system to lock, requiring initialization and reactivation by re-entering the password.

What to Do If the Vehicle Fails to Start the Day After Wading Through Water?

If the vehicle fails to start the day after wading through water, it is recommended to take it to a professional repair shop for inspection. Methods to prevent water from entering the engine: 1. When wading through shallow water: Engage 1st or 2nd gear and drive steadily at low speed into the water, avoiding heavy acceleration or sudden movements to prevent water splashing into the engine and causing it to stall. 2. While driving in water: Pass through the water in one go, avoiding gear changes or sharp turns midway. 3. If encountering another vehicle wading ahead: Do not follow closely to prevent stopping due to the leading vehicle's malfunction. 4. If the water level exceeds half the tire height: It is advisable not to attempt wading, as the car's exhaust pipe is at this height, and forcing through could cause water to enter the exhaust pipe, severely damaging the engine.
