Scoring criteria and detailed rules for reverse parking: Failure to follow the prescribed route or sequence results in disqualification. If the vehicle body crosses the line or fails to enter the parking space, it is disqualified. Exceeding 210 seconds without completing reverse parking results in disqualification. Stopping midway deducts 5 points each time. Reverse parking operation tips: Control the driving speed by using first gear or reverse gear at idle speed throughout the process. Maintain the same speed as when starting. Control the steering timing by carefully observing during the reversing process, mastering the key points of steering, and turning at the right moment. Control the driving route during the test, as the vehicle's path mainly depends on the speed of steering wheel rotation and driving speed. When reversing, accurately observe the boundary lines and correct the direction in time to keep the vehicle straight while entering the parking space. Precautions: To master reverse parking skills, pay attention to speed control—slow speed and quick steering are key points. When reversing, learn to observe the relationship between the vehicle body and the parking lines through the rearview mirror, ensuring the driving route is visible in the mirror.

The scoring criteria for reverse parking in the driving test are quite strict. The parking position must be accurate, and the vehicle body must not touch any of the boundary lines—this is the most basic requirement. The entire process must typically be completed within 90 seconds, and exceeding this time limit will result in point deductions. Stopping midway is also considered a violation, especially stalling or repeating operations, which can lead to point deductions or even immediate failure. Additionally, the vehicle body must be parallel to the edges of the parking space, with minimal angle deviation. I believe these detailed rules are designed to cultivate safe driving habits and reduce the risk of collisions during actual reverse parking. Many people fail the test due to nervousness and touching the lines. It's recommended to pay more attention to adjusting the rearview mirror angles and mastering the rhythm of reversing during practice—practice makes perfect.

What does 'try to avoid braking' mean?

Avoiding braking means minimizing sudden stops to prevent dangerous maneuvers like fishtailing, especially on specific road surfaces, ensuring driving safety. Below are key points about sudden braking in vehicles: 1. Main hazards of frequent sudden braking: Primarily affects tire lifespan by increasing wear; reduces engine longevity; shortens the clutch system's service life; increases fuel consumption; and accelerates wear on brake pads and discs. 2. Countermeasures: If only the brake pedal is pressed, braking force must overcome two factors—the vehicle's kinetic energy and the engine's traction. Simultaneously pressing the brake and clutch pedals disengages the engine's output shaft torque from the driveshaft during braking, meaning the braking force doesn't need to counteract engine traction, slightly reducing stopping distance.

Why is there no air coming out of the BMW X5's air conditioning?

BMW X5 blower failure, clogged air conditioning filter, or control system malfunction can cause the air conditioning to not blow air. The specific reasons are as follows: 1. Blower failure: The blower is the core component for air conditioning airflow. If it is damaged, the car's air conditioning will definitely not blow air. Blower failure may be caused by overheating damage to internal coils or capacitor failure. You can determine if the blower is faulty by turning the car's air conditioning speed and air volume to the maximum and listening for the blower's sound. 2. Clogged air conditioning filter: A clogged air conditioning filter is one of the reasons for the above-mentioned air duct blockage and is also the most common one. Outside air passes through the air conditioning filter before entering the car, which can trap many airborne particles, making it prone to clogging.

How Many Types of Transmissions Are There?

Transmissions can be categorized into manual transmission (MT) and automatic transmission based on the control method. Automatic transmissions can be further divided into AT, AMT, DCT (called DSG by Volkswagen), CVT, etc. MT stands for manual transmission. It requires manually shifting the gear lever to change the gear engagement inside the transmission, altering the gear ratio to achieve speed variation. The gear lever can only be shifted when the clutch is depressed. Manual transmissions are widely used today, commonly available in 5-speed and 6-speed configurations. AT refers to a conventional automatic transmission or a conventional automatic transmission with manual-shift control functionality. This type of transmission is the most widely used, automatically switching between different planetary gears to change the output ratio. AT transmissions are easy to operate and require less effort, but they consume more fuel and have a complex structure, making repairs inconvenient. CVT stands for continuously variable transmission, which essentially means infinite gear ratios. The principle involves changing the size of the transmission gears based on the engine's speed, similar to the front and rear gears on a bicycle, where the driving gear can increase or decrease in size. This results in smooth acceleration without jerking, providing better comfort and lower fuel consumption. The downside is that the transmission belt has a relatively short lifespan, maintenance costs are high, and it is not suitable for high-power transmissions. DCT stands for dual-clutch transmission, which involves two sets of clutch systems working alternately. Volkswagen refers to this as DSG. Dual-clutch transmissions can be further divided into dry and wet types. AMT stands for automated manual transmission. An AMT transmission is essentially a conventional manual transmission and clutch equipped with an electronically controlled hydraulic operating system to achieve automatic gear shifting. It is essentially a manual transmission, or gear-type mechanical transmission (MT), enhanced with a microcomputer-controlled automatic operating system to replace the original manual operating mechanism.

What is a Transmission?

Transmission is a device that changes the speed ratio and direction of motion. It is used in automobiles, tractors, ships, machine tools, and various machines to alter the torque, speed, and direction of motion transmitted from the driving shaft to the driven shaft under different working conditions. A gear-driven transmission generally consists of a housing and several gear pairs. During vehicle operation, to adapt to different working conditions, the driving force and speed of the car need to vary within a certain range. However, the existing engine's torque and speed range cannot meet this requirement, hence the installation of a transmission. Currently, there are mainly five types of transmissions: AT transmission, CVT transmission, AMT transmission, dual-clutch transmission, and manual transmission. The functions of a transmission: Changing the transmission ratio between the engine and the wheels, allowing the engine to operate under optimal conditions, expanding the torque and speed transmitted to the driving wheels, and achieving different speeds; enabling the car to reverse (direction change); and allowing the engine to stop without shutting off (neutral gear setting).
