I drive a 2017 Corolla, and later had the chance to try my friend's 2018 model. I noticed quite a few changes after the facelift. The front-end styling is noticeably different—the 2018 version features a larger grille and hawk-eye headlights, giving it a sharper look. Inside the car, the biggest surprise was the addition of an electronic parking brake and rear air vents in higher trim levels, making rear passengers much more comfortable in summer. I specifically tested their safety system—the 2018 model comes with the full TSS (Toyota Safety Sense) suite. The radar-based adaptive cruise control in traffic is genuinely hassle-free, and it automatically adjusts headlights when encountering high-beam offenders on highways at night, which is far more practical than the 2017 model's basic stability control. The tire specs remain unchanged, but the chassis tuning feels more solid, with less vibration over speed bumps. If your budget allows, I'd recommend going straight for the 2018 model—the price difference in the used market is just a few thousand, and these upgrades are absolutely worth it.

Why does an international 5-speed gear shift back to neutral?

An international 5-speed gear shifting back to neutral usually occurs when lifting the throttle at high speeds, and there are only two possible reasons: First, the gear lever is not fully engaged (this rarely happens and can be felt by the driver). Second, the teeth of the fifth gear are worn out, causing excessive clearance between the gears and resulting in insufficient meshing, which leads to gear disengagement. Note: This applies to cars that use a manual shift mechanical transmission (also known as manual transmission, MT) to regulate speed. That is, the gearshift lever must be manually moved to change the gear meshing position inside the transmission, altering the gear ratio to achieve speed adjustment. The gearshift lever can only be moved when the clutch is depressed. Functions of a manual transmission: To change the gear ratio, expanding the range of torque and speed variations of the driving wheels to adapt to frequently changing driving conditions. Under the premise that the engine's rotation direction remains unchanged, the reverse gear is used to enable the car to move backward. With the engine running, the neutral gear interrupts power transmission, which is beneficial for engine starting, warming up, idling, and facilitates gear shifting, coasting, or temporary parking. The transmission can also output the engine's power to drive other mechanisms, such as the winch of certain vehicles or the oil pump of dump trucks.

What to do if the aftermarket reversing camera has no trajectory lines?

If the aftermarket reversing camera has no trajectory lines, it is because this reversing camera does not support dynamic trajectory. You can only replace it with a reversing camera that has dynamic trajectory lines to achieve this function. Green trajectory line: Indicates a normal safety line, meaning the distance between the obstacle and the rear of the car is relatively large, so you can reverse with confidence. Yellow trajectory line: Indicates a deceleration line, with a distance of 60cm from the rear of the car. You can continue to reverse, but at the same time, you need to slow down the reversing speed and constantly observe the distance from the obstacle. Red trajectory line: Indicates a warning line, with a distance of 30cm from the rear of the car. At this point, you should stop reversing, otherwise you may hit the obstacle behind.

How Many Jin Does One Liter of 92 Octane Gasoline Equal?

One liter of 92 octane gasoline equals 1.45 jin, with a density of approximately 0.725 grams per milliliter. Gasoline is typically measured in liters, but its density is lower than that of water, usually around 0.7g to 0.75g per milliliter. Different grades of gasoline have varying densities, which also affects their weight. The density of gasoline changes with temperature due to the principle of thermal expansion and contraction. As the temperature rises, the volume of gasoline increases, and its density decreases. Conversely, when the temperature drops, the volume of gasoline decreases, and its density increases. This means that the same liter of gasoline will have different densities and, consequently, different weights at different temperatures.

What is the function of the engine belt?

The upper part of the engine belt connects to the timing wheel of the engine cylinder head, and the lower part connects to the crankshaft timing wheel. When the engine is running, the piston stroke, the opening and closing of the valves, and the ignition sequence must remain synchronized under the connection of the timing mechanism. Belt replacement cycle: The timing belt has been used in engines for a long time, with mature technology, low cost, and low noise. It requires regular inspection and maintenance, and generally needs to be replaced every 50,000 to 100,000 kilometers. Regular belt replacement: The engine timing belt is a rubber component. As the engine operating time increases, the timing belt and its accessories will wear or age, so the timing belt and accessories should be replaced regularly.
