Having driven for over twenty years, when I encounter a transmission warning light, my first thought is transmission fluid issues. Low fluid levels or degraded fluid from prolonged use can trigger the alarm, prompting a check of the dipstick or a fluid change. Sensors are another common culprit—faulty speed sensors or temperature sensors can mislead the computer into thinking there's a transmission problem. Electrical issues like aging wiring harnesses or loose connectors can also cause false alarms. If you hear unusual noises during gear shifts or experience noticeable jerking, it might indicate worn clutch plates or internal mechanical damage in the gearbox. Don't underestimate these minor issues—delaying repairs could lead to complete transmission failure. Always visit a repair shop promptly to read the fault codes for an accurate diagnosis of the root cause.

If the transmission warning light suddenly comes on, the first thing to check is the condition of the transmission fluid. Low fluid level, darkened or emulsified oil can trigger the system alarm, and in severe cases, it may even burn out the friction plates. Sensor failures are also quite common—for instance, if the input shaft speed sensor or temperature sensor is damaged, the light will illuminate as soon as the signal is lost. Additionally, issues with the control module can cause shifting logic to become erratic, requiring a software reflash. If this happens with a new car, it might be due to loose wiring caused by assembly problems. It's recommended to go directly to a 4S dealership for a comprehensive inspection and avoid any DIY disassembly, as electronic components are quite fragile.

Subject 2 test items: The test items include five compulsory subjects: reversing into the garage, parallel parking, stopping and starting on a slope, turning at a right angle, and curve driving (commonly known as S-curve). Some regions also have a sixth item: high-speed card collection. Subject 2 passing criteria: The full score is 100 points, with evaluation standards set for disqualification, deduction of 20 points, 10 points, or 5 points. For applicants of large buses, tractors, city buses, medium buses, and large trucks, a score of 90 or above is required to pass. For other vehicle types, a score of 80 or above is sufficient to pass.

Why Does the Brake Make Noise When the Car is Driving at Low Speed?

The reasons why the brake makes noise when the car is driving at low speed are: 1. There are foreign objects such as sand between the brake pads and brake discs, which increase the friction of the brake pads, resulting in a squeaking sound when braking. In this case, the foreign objects need to be cleaned promptly, and the noise will disappear; 2. If it is a muffled sound, it is a problem with the brake caliper, such as wear of the sliding pins or detachment of the spring plates; 3. Braking after the car has driven through water can also cause abnormal noise; 4. Excessive wear of the brake pads, causing the fixed points of the friction material to be exposed and rub against the brake disc or brake drum, producing abnormal noise. Braking, also known as deceleration, refers to the action of stopping or reducing the speed of running locomotives, vehicles, other transport tools, or machinery.

Is a Temporary License Plate Valid Nationwide?

Is a Temporary License Plate Valid Nationwide? Temporary license plates are categorized into different types, and not all temporary plates are valid nationwide. Regular temporary plates are only valid within the issuing city. Different types of temporary plates are distinguished by colors: a temporary vehicle plate with a light blue background, black characters, and black borders is only valid for motor vehicles operating within the issuing city, while a temporary vehicle plate with a brown-yellow background, black characters, and black borders is used for motor vehicles traveling across cities. The validity period of temporary plates is categorized into 15 days, 30 days, and 90 days, regardless of weekdays or holidays. For temporary travel within an administrative district, the blue temporary plate is valid for no more than 15 days; for temporary travel across administrative districts, the yellow temporary plate is valid for no more than 30 days. There are four types of temporary plates, including temporary plates for administrative districts, temporary plates for cross-administrative districts, temporary plates for testing purposes, and temporary plates for special motor vehicles.

Where is the sunroof drain outlet of the Besturn B70?

The sunroof drain outlet of the Besturn B70 is located inside the A-pillar and C-pillar of the car. Most vehicles have their sunroof drain outlets set in these positions. In addition, there are other drain outlets on the car, including the air conditioning drain outlet, engine compartment drain outlet, door drain outlet, fuel tank drain outlet, and exhaust pipe drain outlet. Air conditioning drain outlet: The air conditioning drain outlet is located below the condenser in the cabin. Once you locate the condenser in the cabin, you can find the drain outlet. The function of the air conditioning drain outlet is to expel the water condensed during the heat exchange process when the air conditioning is in use, as the evaporator continuously absorbs moisture from the surrounding air. This is why there is often a puddle of water under the car after the air conditioning has been running for a while. Engine compartment drain outlet: The engine compartment drain outlet is located on both sides of the windshield wipers, usually one on each side. The engine compartment is a relatively open environment, so wastewater and debris can flow into it along the windshield. Door drain outlet: The door drain outlet is located along the lower edge of the car door. Its function is to drain water that enters the door during rain. Some rainwater can seep into the door through the gaps between the door seals and the window. When the door is opened, the water inside will drain out through the door drain outlet. Fuel tank drain outlet: The fuel tank drain outlet can be seen from below only when the fuel tank is filled and the cap is opened. However, since wind and sand can accumulate near the fuel tank cap, blockage can cause damage to the fuel tank. Therefore, it is recommended to use hard objects like steel wires and high-pressure air to clear any blockages during maintenance. Exhaust pipe drain outlet: There are typically three drain outlets on the car's exhaust pipe. The first is at the tailpipe, which is the main drainage point. The second is at the muffler section of the tailpipe, as some mufflers come with a drain outlet from the factory. When there is excess water in the muffler, it will drain out through this outlet. The third is at the connection point in the middle of the exhaust pipe.

What is the fuel consumption per kilometer for the Soueast V3 Lingyue?

Soueast V3 Lingyue has a fuel consumption of 7.3 liters per 100 kilometers. The fuel consumption per kilometer for the Soueast V3 Lingyue is 0.073 liters. Meaning of fuel consumption: Fuel consumption refers to the amount of fuel consumed corresponding to the distance traveled by a car. Constant-speed fuel consumption is an indicator of fuel economy when a car is traveling at a constant speed on a good road. The commonly mentioned "liters per 100 kilometers" means how many liters of fuel a car consumes for every 100 kilometers traveled. Here, "liters" is equivalent to "L" (liters). Factors affecting fuel consumption: The level of a car's fuel consumption is related to many factors, including driving environment and driving habits. For example, prolonged engine idling, sudden braking, inconsistent driving speeds, insufficient tire pressure, aggressive acceleration, and long-distance driving at high speeds in low gears. In addition, road conditions also have a significant impact on fuel consumption, especially in urban traffic conditions where traffic jams are common.

Is it okay to sleep in the car without turning on the air conditioning?

It is okay to sleep in the car without turning on the air conditioning. In fact, it is better not to turn on the air conditioning, especially when the doors and windows are closed. Here are the reasons why you can sleep in the car without turning on the air conditioning: Car "Internal Circulation": Internal circulation means the air circulates within the car without any external air entering. In this mode, outside exhaust fumes and dust do not enter the car, and the air conditioning's cooling and heating effects are more efficient. Internal circulation is suitable for use in traffic jams or polluted areas. However, if you sleep in the car with the air conditioning on and internal circulation activated, the small space and lack of air exchange with the outside can lead to oxygen depletion inside the car over time, potentially causing suffocation due to lack of oxygen. Car "External Circulation": External circulation allows a small amount of outside air to enter the car while the air is circulating, providing fresh air to the interior. However, this reduces the efficiency of the air conditioning's cooling and heating. External circulation is suitable for situations with many passengers or long drives. If you sleep with external circulation on and the car is in a confined, poorly ventilated space, such as a garage or near a wall, exhaust fumes can accumulate around the car and enter through the air conditioning intake, leading to carbon monoxide poisoning.
