Long-term use of auto hold has minimal impact on the vehicle. Below is an introduction to the auto hold function: Definition: Auto hold refers to an automatic braking function. Once activated, for example, when stopping at a red light, it eliminates the need to pull the handbrake, simplifying operations by avoiding the use of manual or electronic handbrakes. Braking System: The auto hold function relies on an intelligent braking system. It can only be implemented in vehicles equipped with brake control systems like ESP. This function automatically engages four-wheel braking when stopping at traffic lights or on slopes. Even in D or N gear, there's no need to keep the foot on the brake or use the handbrake, as the vehicle will remain stationary.

What does the red exclamation mark on the car mean?

Red exclamation mark (specifically a circle with an exclamation mark inside parentheses), this represents a warning for the braking system, mainly indicating a brake system malfunction or low brake fluid level. Solution: Immediate inspection and repair of the braking system are required to avoid accidents. Besides the red exclamation mark indicating a brake system fault, other exclamation marks on the car are yellow, representing general faults, automatic transmission faults, abnormal tire pressure, and lighting faults. Below is a detailed analysis of these four situations: General Fault: A triangle with an exclamation mark inside. If this symbol lights up, it indicates a fault in the car's general performance, components, or functions. Main issues include parking sensor faults, fuel cut-off system intervention or faults, external light faults, engine oil pressure sensor faults, etc. It is necessary to visit a 4S shop for inspection to identify the source of the fault. Automatic Transmission Fault: A yellow gear with an exclamation mark inside. This is the automatic transmission fault warning light, indicating a fault in the transmission or transmission lubricant below the normal range. Transmission fluid should be replaced promptly. Abnormal Tire Pressure: A horizontal line under parentheses with an exclamation mark in the middle. This represents the tire pressure monitoring warning light. When the car's tire pressure is too low, this warning light will illuminate. Check the car's tire pressure and restore it to the normal range. Lighting Fault: A yellow bulb with an exclamation mark. This is the lighting fault indicator, indicating a fault in the car's lights. Solution: Visit a 4S shop as soon as possible for inspection and repair. You can also check yourself, focusing on commonly used bulbs such as turn signals, fog lights, and interior lights to identify the issue.

Causes of Valve Noise?

Causes of valve noise: 1. Wear on the rocker arm of the valve stem end adjustment screw, resulting in excessive valve clearance, causing collision between the side-mounted valve tappet end and the adjustment screw; 2. Excessive wear on the cam, causing the tappet to jump during operation; 3. Detachment of the valve spring seat; 4. Loosening of the tappet fixing nut or uneven end face of the adjustment bolt; 5. Excessive carbon buildup in the valve guide, causing the valve to stick. Methods to check valve noise: 1. Remove the valve cover to inspect the lubrication condition of the valve rocker arm; 2.
