If the car is in motion, it may stall due to the influence of the handbrake. If you apply some throttle and reverse normally, there won't be much impact. However, if the reversing time is too long, it may affect the brakes. Below is some relevant information: Meaning of the handbrake: The parking brake, commonly known as the handbrake, provides resistance to the car when parked to prevent it from rolling. The parking brake, whether it's a handbrake or the parking gear in an automatic transmission, locks the drive shaft or rear wheels. The force of the parking brake is much weaker than that of the service brake, just enough to prevent the car from rolling on a slope. Types of parking brakes: There are different types of parking brakes, such as the mechanical ones operated by hand or foot as mentioned above. Additionally, high-end vehicles are increasingly adopting electronically controlled parking systems, commonly known as electronic handbrakes.

What should be the speed and distance maintained when visibility is 200 meters on the highway?

When visibility is 200 meters on the highway, the speed should not exceed 60 kilometers per hour, and a distance of more than 100 meters should be maintained from the vehicle ahead in the same lane. When visibility is less than 200 meters, turn on fog lights, low beams, outline markers, and front and rear position lights. The speed should not exceed 60 kilometers per hour, and a distance of more than 100 meters should be maintained from the vehicle ahead in the same lane. When visibility is less than 100 meters: turn on fog lights, low beams, outline markers, front and rear position lights, and hazard warning flashers. The speed should not exceed 40 kilometers per hour, and a distance of more than 50 meters should be maintained from the vehicle ahead in the same lane. When visibility is less than 50 meters: turn on fog lights, low beams, outline markers, front and rear position lights, and hazard warning flashers. The speed should not exceed 20 kilometers per hour, and the driver should exit the highway at the nearest exit as soon as possible. Penalty: Driving on the highway without following regulations under low-visibility weather conditions will result in a 6-point deduction.

Do I Need to Drive a New Car Every Day During the Break-in Period?

It is not necessary to drive a new car every day during the break-in period. Here are some relevant details: 1. Engine RPM: Generally, during the break-in period, it is advisable to keep the engine RPM below 2000. However, most modern cars are much better than before, and the break-in period has been shortened. For specific models, you can consult the dealer. Additionally, avoid sudden acceleration and hard braking. 2. Load: The carrying capacity of a car during the break-in period should not exceed 75% of the additional load. When loading a new car, it should be below the specified weight limit, and overloading must be avoided. Overloading increases the burden on the engine, transmission, drivetrain, suspension system, and other components, accelerating wear and causing damage to the vehicle. 3. Use high-quality lubricants: Choosing low-viscosity, high-quality lubricants can provide good lubrication to friction surfaces, reducing component wear.

What does P030085 signal exceeding the allowable limit mean?

P030085 indicates misfire detection, where a signal exceeds the permitted limit value P030285, identifying misfire in cylinder 2. Below are relevant details: 1. Ignition inspection: Through disconnecting ignition detection, it was found that cylinders 2 and 3 are not functioning properly—not completely non-operational but performing poorly. After swapping ignition coils and spark plugs between cylinders 1 and 4, 2 and 5, and 3 and 6, the issue persists. 2. Fuel injector swap: The same method was applied to the fuel injectors, yet the problem remains. Subsequently, an endoscopic inspection of cylinders 2 and 3 revealed no cylinder scoring or other faults. A cylinder pressure test showed all six engine cylinders achieving pressures above 1200 kPa. After removing the intake pipe, each cylinder's intake was found to be independent. Starting the engine and manually blocking each cylinder's intake demonstrated strong suction pressure uniformly across all six cylinders. At this stage, suspicions of mechanical system faults in the engine are largely ruled out.
