What Are the Reasons for Vibration When Shifting to Reverse Gear in an Automatic Car?

When shifting gears in an automatic car, there is usually some vibration because the clutch differential is engaged, and the engine is generating torque. Minor vibrations are normal, but if the shaking is severe. Possible reasons include: 1. Low idle speed. 2. Dirty throttle body. 3. Dirty fuel injectors. 4. Severe engine carbon buildup. 5. Poor spark plug performance. There are three main reasons why an automatic transmission may not move when shifted to reverse gear: 1. Improper adjustment of the shift lever. 2. Leakage in the reverse gear hydraulic circuit. 3. Slippage in the reverse and high gear clutch or low gear and reverse gear brake. The damage to these three components is primarily caused by incorrect driving habits and the lack of regular inspection and maintenance. Incorrect operation can lead to premature wear of internal components in the automatic transmission, while the absence of regular vehicle inspections and maintenance prevents the detection of impurities in the automatic transmission fluid, further accelerating component wear.

What is the fuel consumption per 100 km for the Mercedes-Benz R300?

The official fuel consumption figure from the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology for the Mercedes-Benz R300 is around 8.5 liters per 100 kilometers, but in actual driving conditions, the comprehensive fuel consumption ranges between 9 to 12 liters. Additionally, the most critical factors affecting fuel consumption are driving habits and road conditions. Fuel consumption per 100 km: Fuel consumption per 100 kilometers refers to the amount of fuel a vehicle consumes when driving a certain distance at a specified speed, serving as a theoretical indicator for the vehicle. This figure is obtained by manufacturers under controlled conditions, using a dynamometer installed on the vehicle's chassis to measure values, which are then converted into speed parameters. The vehicle is then driven at specified speeds to calculate the theoretical experimental fuel consumption per 100 kilometers. Relationship between fuel consumption and engine displacement: While fuel consumption is related to engine displacement, this relationship is not absolute. A larger cylinder volume can hold more combustible mixture, so under otherwise identical conditions, an engine with a larger cylinder volume will have better/higher power and fuel consumption.

Is There a Fee for Subject 4 Exam?

There is no fee for the Subject 4 exam. Below is relevant information about Subject 4: Exam Content: The main content of Subject 4 includes safe and civilized driving operation requirements, safe driving knowledge under adverse weather and complex road conditions, emergency handling methods for situations like tire blowouts, and post-accident handling knowledge. Retake Instructions: If you fail Subject 4, you do not need to retake the previously passed subjects (Subject 1, Subject 2, Subject 3). You can schedule a retake on your own, and there is no retake fee. There are no scheduling restrictions for the safe and civilized driving theory exam, but the driving skill test permit is valid for three years. If the applicant does not complete the exam within the validity period, the results of any passed subjects will be voided.

Can I Pay the Fine Online If I Lost the Ticket?

You cannot pay the fine online. To pay the fine for traffic violations online, you need the ticket and must enter the specified number on it. If the ticket is lost, you can bring your vehicle registration certificate to the vehicle management office or the traffic management department of the public security authority to apply for a replacement. Additional Information: Reaching 12 Points: If a motor vehicle driver accumulates 12 points in one scoring cycle, the traffic management department of the public security authority shall detain their motor vehicle driving license. Attending Study Sessions: The motor vehicle driver must attend a 7-day study session on road traffic safety laws, regulations, and related knowledge at the traffic management department of the public security authority where the driving license was issued or where the violation occurred within 15 days. After completing the study session, the vehicle management office must conduct an examination on road traffic safety laws, regulations, and related knowledge within 20 days. If the examination is passed, the points will be cleared, and the motor vehicle driving license will be returned. If the examination is failed, the driver must continue to attend study sessions and take the examination.

Why Has the Steering Wheel Become Heavier?

The reasons for the steering wheel becoming heavier are as follows: 1. Excessive bearing tightness: If the rolling bearings and sliding bearings connected to the steering system are too tightly fitted, it can lead to poor lubrication of the bearings, causing a sticking phenomenon. There are two specific manifestations of heavy steering: one is unidirectional heaviness, and the other is heaviness on both sides, both of which can result in a heavier steering wheel. 2. Issues with the power steering system: The relationship between the steering wheel and the power steering system is inherently inseparable. When the steering wheel becomes heavier, it is highly likely that there is poor electrical contact or other problems within the power steering system.

What Causes Water Leakage Under the Car Chassis After Turning on the Air Conditioning?

Here are the specific reasons for water leakage under the car when the air conditioning is on: Evaporator Drainage: The car's cooling system is equipped with an evaporator inside the dashboard. When the air conditioning is turned on (A/C button ON), the surface temperature of the evaporator becomes very low, causing moisture in the hot air inside the car to condense on the surface of the evaporator's heat-absorbing fins. The condensed water droplets are collected by the plastic housing of the evaporator and drained out of the car through a pipe. Compressor Condensation: Sometimes, the exterior of the compressor (low-pressure area) installed in the engine compartment can condense moisture from the air, causing it to drip onto the ground. Lack of Insulation Foam: If the low-pressure pipes are not covered with insulation foam, the surface of the pipes can easily condense moisture from the air, and water droplets often gather and drip from the lowest point of the pipes.

What is the time standard for reversing into the garage in Subject 2?

Reversing into the garage requires the candidate to complete the entire process of reversing the vehicle into the garage and exiting within 210 seconds, without stopping midway. Below is relevant information: Introduction: Subject 2, abbreviated as the field driving skill test, includes five mandatory test items for small vehicles C1 and C2: reversing into the garage, parallel parking, stopping and starting on a slope, turning at a right angle, and driving through curves (commonly known as S-turns). Some regions also include a sixth item: highway card collection. Content: Candidates are required to master basic driving operation essentials, possess fundamental vehicle control abilities, proficiently grasp basic methods for field and road driving, have the capability to reasonably use vehicle control components and correctly control the spatial position of the vehicle, and accurately control the vehicle's position, speed, and route.
