What type of engine oil is suitable for Hyundai Elantra?

Hyundai Elantra uses 5W-30 engine oil. Engine oil consists of two parts: base oil and additives. The base oil is the main component of lubricating oil, determining its fundamental properties, while additives compensate for and improve the shortcomings of the base oil, providing certain new characteristics, making them an essential part of lubricating oil. Related information is as follows: 1. Winter oil grades: The winter oil grades under the SAE lubricating oil viscosity classification are: 0W, 5W, 10W, 15W, 20W, 25W. The symbol W stands for winter, and the smaller the number before W, the lower its low-temperature viscosity, the better its low-temperature fluidity, and the lower the minimum applicable temperature. 2. Summer oil grades: The summer oil grades under the SAE lubricating oil viscosity classification are: 20, 30, 40, 50. The larger the number, the higher its viscosity, and the higher the maximum applicable temperature.

How to Check the Vehicle Warranty Period?

The vehicle warranty period starts from the date the sales invoice is issued, so you can check your vehicle's invoice. Generally, at the time of completing the transaction between the consumer and the merchant, the merchant will randomly issue a warranty card to the consumer as a warranty certificate. The warranty certificate usually includes consumer information, purchase date, product model, manufacturing date, warranty duration and scope, and maintenance records. Below is the relevant introduction: 1. Vehicle Warranty Period The vehicle warranty period refers to the time frame during which the car manufacturer promises to provide free repairs and maintenance for faults caused by quality issues when selling the product to the consumer. 2. Warranty Conditions: Currently, most car manufacturers implement a new vehicle warranty period of "two years or 60,000 kilometers, whichever comes first." This means there are two conditions for the warranty period: one is a time limit of 2 years, and the second is a mileage limit of 60,000 kilometers. Once either of these two conditions is met, it indicates that the vehicle's warranty period has expired, and any subsequent normal maintenance and repairs will no longer be free of charge.

Should You Apply the Handbrake or Shift to Neutral First After Parking?

Applying the handbrake first or shifting to neutral first is generally acceptable, as there is no fixed sequence. Below are the relevant details: 1. Principle of how the handbrake stabilizes the vehicle: The handbrake stabilizes the vehicle by clamping the rear brake discs, preventing the rear wheels from rotating. Mechanical cable-type handbrakes use steel cables to pull the brake calipers, which then clamp the brake discs, while electronic handbrakes operate servo motors on the brake calipers to achieve the same effect. 2. When parking on a slope: When parking on a slope, you should apply the handbrake first and then shift gears. Otherwise, the pawl and ratchet mechanism will bear the component force of the vehicle on the slope, which can either damage the pawl gear or make them press together too tightly, making it difficult to shift out of Park (P) or causing metallic noises. By applying the handbrake first and then shifting gears, the component force on the slope will be borne by the handbrake, which is much better for the transmission.

Can You Stop Directly in Third Gear at a Traffic Light?

You cannot stop directly in third gear at a traffic light. First, decelerate, then shift down to first gear, and finally come to a complete stop. Below is a brief introduction to braking and an overview of the car clutch: Introduction to Braking: Braking, also known as deceleration, refers to the action of stopping or reducing the speed of moving locomotives, vehicles, or other transportation tools or machinery. The general principle of braking involves fixing a wheel or disc on the high-speed shaft of the machine and installing corresponding brake shoes, bands, or discs on the machine base, which generate braking torque under external force. The braking device, also known as a decelerator, is a mechanical device designed to slow down the vehicle's speed. Overview of the Car Clutch: The car clutch is located inside the flywheel housing between the engine and the transmission. The output shaft of the clutch serves as the input shaft of the transmission. While driving, the driver can press or release the clutch pedal as needed to temporarily separate or gradually engage the engine and transmission, thereby cutting off or transferring the power input from the engine to the transmission.

What to Do When Your Driver's License Reaches Zero Points?

If your driver's license is deducted to zero points within a cycle, you need to go to the local traffic management department of the public security authority for a seven-day study period. After completing the training, you will need to retake the subject one exam. The following are the deduction scenarios for a driver's license: 1. Full 12 points on the driver's license: After accumulating 12 points, you must undergo an 8-hour daily training on road traffic safety regulations and related knowledge. The exam content is the same as that for new driving test candidates. After passing the subject one exam, the points on your driver's license will be cleared, and the traffic management department will reissue your driver's license. If you fail the exam, you will need to retake the training and exam. 2. Accumulating more than 6 points during the probationary period: If your driver's license accumulates more than 6 points within the one-year probationary period, the probationary period will be extended by one year. Once 12 points are accumulated, you will no longer be allowed to drive a motor vehicle. If caught by traffic police, your driver's license will be revoked.
