The reasons for the brake system warning light to illuminate are as follows: 1. Severe brake pad wear: Brake pads are divided into two types, those with sensor wires and those without. For brake pads with sensor wires, when the wear reaches the limit position, the sensor wire will automatically complete the circuit, triggering the warning light. Brake pads without sensor wires do not automatically alert but will produce a "metal-on-metal" hissing sound. 2. Brake fluid: Brake fluid plays a crucial role in the vehicle's braking system. 3. Other factors causing the brake system warning light to illuminate: Such as brake system oil leakage, false alarms, etc.

Can the Clutch and Brake of a Car Be Pressed Simultaneously?

The clutch and brake of a car should not be pressed simultaneously, as this can easily damage the transmission. Below are some related introductions about car clutches and brakes: 1. Clutch Maintenance Methods: Reduce the frequency and duration of half-clutch usage. Unlike dual-clutch transmissions, manual transmissions allow full control over the frequency and duration of half-clutch usage, thereby reducing clutch wear. Most wear on dual-clutch transmissions occurs during low-speed driving, so mastering manual mode in low-speed stages can extend the clutch's lifespan. 2. Brake Maintenance Methods: Regularly clean the brake discs, frequently check and replace the brake fluid, and perform lubrication maintenance on the brake calipers.

Does the dash cam have an automatic deletion function?

The dash cam has an automatic deletion function. Generally, when the memory is full, it will automatically delete some of the previous information. The following is a related introduction about dash cams: 1. Time options: The loop recording settings of dash cams usually have different time options such as 1 minute, 2 minutes, 3 minutes, 5 minutes, and 10 minutes. After recording, it moves to the next segment. 2. Setting the loop time to 3 or 5 minutes is advisable: When setting the loop time for the dash cam, it should not be too short or too long. If the recording time is too short, the video will be divided into more segments, increasing the chance of frame loss. On the other hand, if the time is too long, the number of stored videos will be very few and they will be quickly overwritten. It is recommended to set it to 3 or 5 minutes, which is most suitable.

Does a Child Count Towards Overloading in a Car?

If a car exceeds the approved number of passengers, taking a child along is considered overloading. Here are some relevant details about overloading: 1. Hazards: Overloading significantly contributes to traffic accidents. Due to overloading, the vehicle's control ability is reduced, making it more prone to accidents. Additionally, overloading damages roads and affects vehicle speed. Some overloaded vehicles can only crawl at speeds of 10-20 kilometers per hour, greatly diminishing the efficiency of road transport and reducing vehicle transportation efficiency. 2. Penalties for Overloading: Driving a commercial passenger vehicle exceeding the approved number of passengers by more than 20% results in a 12-point penalty; driving a commercial passenger vehicle exceeding the approved number by less than 20%, or driving other passenger vehicles exceeding the approved number by more than 20%, results in a 6-point penalty. Driving passenger vehicles other than commercial passenger vehicles or school buses exceeding the approved number by less than 20% results in a 3-point penalty.

What is the real fuel consumption of the Outlander 2.0?

The fuel consumption of the 2.0L model is 8.5 liters per 100 kilometers. The Outlander is a compact SUV under Mitsubishi, with dimensions of 4705 mm in length, 1810 mm in width, and 1710 mm in height, and a wheelbase of 2670 mm. The Outlander is equipped with two engines: a 2.0L naturally aspirated engine and a 2.4L naturally aspirated engine. Methods to reduce fuel consumption: 1. Correctly adjust tire inflation pressure: Maintaining proper tire pressure can reduce rolling resistance and lower fuel consumption. Additionally, slightly increasing tire pressure by +0.2bar above the recommended value can also save fuel. 2. Moderate use of in-car auxiliary electrical devices: Using certain electrical devices, such as the air conditioning system's cooling function, can significantly increase fuel consumption. For example, turn off the seat heater once the desired warmth is achieved. Also, turn off the rear window defroster when there is no fog or ice on the window.
