Should the Nissan Sylphy eco mode be turned on?

Nissan Sylphy's eco mode can be activated. The eco mode in vehicles is an energy-saving mode. In this mode, it can effectively reduce the fuel consumption of the motor vehicle, and it can be turned on or off via a switch. The eco mode generally turns off under the following circumstances: 1. When the vehicle speed exceeds 120 kilometers per hour, the eco mode automatically turns off. 2. The eco mode may also become ineffective when idling in park or neutral (N/P) gear or in manual mode. 3. When high torque output is needed, such as during hill climbing or heavy load operation, the engine control unit (ECU) ensures sufficient vehicle power to drive the car, and the eco mode will not function in these scenarios either.

What to Do If the Door Check Strap Is Too Loose?

Why Does the Car's Exhaust Pipe Emit White Smoke in Winter?

It is quite common for cars to emit white smoke in winter, as the white smoke seen is basically water vapor. Here are the reasons why a car's exhaust pipe emits white smoke in winter: 1. Normal white smoke from the car's exhaust pipe: Water vapor produced after gasoline combustion is normally discharged through the exhaust pipe. Due to the low external temperature, the water vapor condenses into small water droplets, turning into visible water vapor. 2. Fault-related white smoke from the car's exhaust pipe: Some coolant enters the cylinder and, as it is expelled with the exhaust gas, appears as water vapor due to the high temperature. 3. Therefore, in most cases, 'white smoke' coming out of the exhaust pipe is not a fault. However, there are exceptions, and a large amount of 'white smoke' from the exhaust pipe may not always be normal.
