Compared to automatic transmission, manual transmission has the following advantages: 1. Price: Manual transmission models are usually cheaper than their automatic counterparts with the same configuration, typically by around 10,000 yuan. The two versions have identical configurations, exterior, and interior, with the only differences being that the automatic version includes tire pressure monitoring and cruise control. However, manual versions also often come with cruise control; for example, the Changan CS15 manual models (except the entry-level version) all feature cruise control. 2. Performance: If a manual transmission is of good quality and used correctly, it is almost impossible to malfunction and has a long service life. As long as the owner is willing, they can drive the car until it's scrapped without needing to change the gear oil.

Can Power Banks Be Left in Cars?

Power banks are not recommended to be left in cars. Additional information: 1. Reasons: Power banks are electronic products that primarily consist of batteries. Most batteries generate heat under high temperatures and during usage, which can cause the power bank to overheat. When the temperature reaches 80 degrees Celsius, it can easily lead to an explosion. Of course, power bank explosions may also be caused by poor quality or aging. Being exposed to high temperatures can increase the risk of such incidents. 2. Unsuitable for cars: Power banks are among the least suitable items to be left in cars due to their high risk of explosion. Lighters are explosive items, and glasses can focus sunlight. When sunlight is concentrated to a single point, it can easily ignite seats or other materials, leading to a fire. Perfume bottles are volatile, and when temperatures are too high, they can release toxic substances.

How to Deal with Scratched Paint on a White Car?

The methods for dealing with scratched paint on a white car are: 1. Use scratch wax to lightly polish the scratched area, which can simply fix the issue of paint loss; 2. Purchase a touch-up pen that matches the car's color and use it to repair the scratch, covering up the unsightly appearance caused by the paint loss; 3. Use nail polish that is similar in color or transparent to fill in the scratched area; 4. You can go to a professional paint shop for repair. If a small piece of paint is scratched off, first determine whether it's the original paint or just the surface paint that's lost. If it's only the surface paint, you can use a "nano scratch repair cloth"—minor scratches can be restored with a simple wipe. Whether the scratches are minor or deep, you can also buy a touch-up pen to fix them.
