Continental tires have the following characteristics: 1. Advantages: Safety, reliability, and low noise, with unique tread designs on the tire surface that enhance vehicle handling performance. They also offer excellent braking performance on both dry and wet surfaces, higher drainage protection capabilities, and are the only road tires globally approved for driving at speeds of 360 km/h, earning a Guinness World Record. Additionally, they have an excellent product lifespan, making them a high-value product. The SSR run-flat tires allow vehicles to continue driving up to 80 km at 80 km/h even when the tire is completely deflated. 2. Disadvantages: Since Continental tires focus on comfort, reliability, and low noise, their wear resistance is average compared to other brands. Some tread patterns may not be fully suitable for certain roads in China, and the sidewalls are relatively thin, with high aspect ratios prone to bulging.

What brand are the original tires on the Civic?

The original tires on the Civic are Yokohama tires, with sizes 215/50R17 and 215/55R16. Yokohama Tire, founded in 1917 and formerly known as Yokohama Rubber, officially changed its name in China to Yokohama in 2008. The company has developed tire design technology to reduce air resistance during vehicle driving. For the Civic's tires, the following points should be noted during daily use: Regularly inspect the tire surface for cracks, deformations, or other defects. Due to wear from driving, the tread grooves gradually become shallower. If the tread wears out, the tire loses its ability to drain water and prevent skidding, significantly reducing the car's performance. Small cracks may also pose a risk of blowouts at high speeds. Additionally, promptly remove any pebbles lodged in the grooves. Park on level ground whenever possible. Avoid parking on roads with thick, sharp, or pointed stones. Do not park near or in contact with petroleum products, acids, or other materials that can deteriorate rubber. After parking, avoid turning the steering wheel, as this accelerates tire wear. Do not splash water to cool the tires. In hot weather or during high-speed driving, tires can overheat, increasing tire pressure. In such cases, park to allow the tires to cool naturally. Avoid releasing air to reduce pressure or splashing water to cool the tires, as this can cause abnormal aging of the tread rubber. Avoid sudden braking. Minimize frequent or hard braking to prevent accelerated tread wear caused by dragging the tires against the road surface.

Where should the novice driver sticker be placed on the car?

Novice driver stickers should be placed on both sides of the rear windshield or on the trunk of the car. These stickers are used to indicate that a new driver is on the road, serving as a warning to other vehicles to prevent safety accidents such as rear-end collisions. They are commonly used by new drivers who have just started test driving and can also be referred to as novice practice stickers or novice yield stickers. According to the implementation regulations of the Road Traffic Safety Law of the People's Republic of China, the first 12 months after a motor vehicle driver initially obtains a driver's license is considered the probationary period. During this period, if driving a motor vehicle, a uniform-style probationary sign must be affixed or hung at the rear of the vehicle.

What are the effects of carbon deposits in sedans?

The effects of carbon deposits in sedans include: 1. Reduced engine power, body shaking at idle, loud engine noise, blue exhaust emissions, and failure to pass annual inspections, making the vehicle undrivable; 2. Difficulty in engine ignition and potential damage to internal engine components. Carbon deposits encompass two concepts: 1. A coking-like substance formed from unsaturated olefins and gums in fuel under high temperatures during engine operation; 2. Carbon deposits in electrical discharge machining, which should be avoided as much as possible, especially in precision mold processing, where they can have fatal effects.

Why is there a strong gasoline smell after starting the car?

The reasons for a strong gasoline smell after starting the car are: 1. Insufficient air intake in the car's throttle, leading to incorrect air flow information and affecting the fuel injection volume; 2. Excessive carbon deposits in the cylinder combustion chamber and pistons, resulting in insufficient cylinder pressure and overly rich air-fuel mixture; 3. Excessive carbon deposits inside the engine, causing poor atomization of the air-fuel mixture; 4. Leakage in the gasoline pipe, forming sludge at the pipe connections, with the odor entering the car through the air conditioning system. In older cars, rubber pipes in the engine compartment are prone to aging, leading to leaks. If you notice a strong gasoline smell when starting the car and the smell persists, you should check the condition of the fuel pipes.
