The high beam symbol is a horizontal line, while the low beam symbol is a diagonal line pointing downward. The low beam indicator light is green, and the high beam indicator is blue. Low Beam: Low beams are designed for close-range illumination, with a wide coverage angle (160 degrees) but a short projection distance, and the focus cannot be adjusted. The illumination range of low beams is approximately 30-40 meters. Experiments show that when driving at 55 km/h at night, the braking distance after spotting an obstacle is exactly 30 meters. This means that if an object is detected within the low beam's range, there will be no gap between the vehicle and the object by the time the car stops. High Beam: High beams enhance visibility and expand the field of view. On dark roads without streetlights, the visible range with high beams is significantly greater than with low beams alone. Therefore, using high beams in such conditions is highly recommended.

Can Odometer Tampering Be Detected?

Vehicle odometer tampering can be identified but cannot be detected. Here are some methods for detecting odometer adjustments: 1. No maintenance records at 4S shops: If the vehicle has not been serviced at a 4S shop, you can take it directly to a 4S shop for a comprehensive inspection to verify its actual condition. Under professional inspection, a used car with a tampered odometer will have nowhere to hide, preventing you from being deceived. For ordinary private cars, owners typically choose to service them at 4S shops. When purchasing such a used car, you can visit a same-brand 4S shop to check the vehicle's last maintenance record and compare the recorded mileage with the current condition at the time of transaction for any obvious discrepancies. However, if the vehicle has never been serviced at a 4S shop, this method is not applicable. 2. Manufacturing date: You can check the manufacturing date. If you encounter a vehicle with a long usage period but exceptionally low mileage, it may indicate a problem. Additionally, if the tire treads are flat and the edges are no longer sharp, it suggests the car has been driven extensively. If the four tires vary in wear, they may have been replaced due to an accident or severe wear. Generally, brake discs last over 100,000 kilometers. If a vehicle over five years old has very new brake discs, it indicates they have been replaced, meaning the actual mileage must exceed 100,000 kilometers or more.

What tires does the Lexus UX use?

The Lexus UX comes with two original tire specifications: 215/60R17 and 225/50R18, equipped with Michelin PRIMACY4 tires that emphasize braking performance. Michelin was established in 1889 in Clermont-Ferrand, France. MICHELIN is the English name of Michelin, and Michelin tires are a French brand. The company now operates across five continents with R&D centers in Europe, North America, and Asia. Michelin is one of the world's top three tire manufacturers. For daily use of Lexus UX tires, pay attention to the following points: Regularly inspect the tire surface for cracks, deformations, or other defects. As tires wear from driving, the tread grooves gradually become shallower. If the tread wears out completely, the tire will lose its ability to drain water and provide traction, significantly reducing the vehicle's performance. Small cracks can also be a hidden danger for blowouts at high speeds. Additionally, promptly remove pebbles from the grooves; try to park on flat surfaces. Avoid parking on roads with thick, sharp, or pointed stones. Do not park near or in contact with petroleum products, acids, or other materials that can deteriorate rubber. After parking, avoid turning the steering wheel, as this can accelerate tire wear; do not splash water to cool down. In hot weather or during high-speed driving, tires can overheat, and tire pressure may increase. In such cases, stop to let the tires cool naturally. Never release air to reduce pressure or splash water to cool the tires, as this can cause abnormal aging of the tread rubber; avoid sudden braking. Try to minimize frequent or hard braking to prevent accelerated tread wear caused by dragging between the tires and the road.

How to Learn Reverse Parking?

Many beginners don't know how to reverse park, which often leads to failure during the reverse parking test. Here are the specific methods for reverse parking: 1. Clutch Control: It's essential to control the clutch properly during reverse parking. Gently lift your foot until the car starts moving, then keep your foot steady. Practice driving in the parking area frequently to maintain a stable clutch speed without sudden fluctuations. For beginners, slower is generally better. Mastering clutch control is almost half the battle won. 2. Fixed-point Parking: When initially driving into the reverse parking position, ensure the front of the car stops before the yellow line, but the wheels must not cross it. Practice finding your own reference point. When parking, you can look ahead or tilt your head slightly to check the distance from the yellow line. The ideal parking distance on the left side is about 1.5 meters. 3. Right Reverse: When reversing to the right, turn the steering wheel fully to the right once the left rearview mirror can no longer see the front yellow line. Continuously monitor the right rearview mirror. When the distance between the car body and the garage's yellow line is about three centimeters (roughly two or three fingers' width), immediately straighten the steering wheel and slowly reverse in, paying attention to both sides. If not aligned perfectly, you can make minor adjustments to both sides to successfully park. Then, continue reversing while checking the left rearview mirror for fixed-point parking, finding your own reference point. 4. Left Exit and Entry: Drive straight out from the garage to the left. As soon as the rear wheels exit, turn the steering wheel fully to the left. Once the entire car body is out, return the steering wheel halfway to position the car at a 45-degree angle and stop. Next, check the left rearview mirror to reverse into the left garage, then exit to the right.

What is the 0-100 km/h acceleration time of the Tesla Model 3?

According to official data, the Tesla Model 3's 0-100 km/h acceleration time is 6.1 seconds. Factors affecting a vehicle's 0-100 km/h acceleration time are as follows: Torque: Torque, in layman's terms, represents how much force is available. The greater the torque, the stronger the force pushing the vehicle, resulting in naturally faster acceleration. The Tesla Model S has a maximum torque of 404 Nm, with a 0-100 km/h acceleration time of 3.2 seconds; the Tesla Model 3 has a maximum torque of 340 Nm, with a 0-100 km/h acceleration time of 6.1 seconds. Transmission efficiency: The transmission is the medium for power transfer, inevitably involving power loss. The higher the transmission efficiency, the better the acceleration performance. Generally, transmission efficiency ranks as follows: manual transmission > dry dual-clutch transmission > wet dual-clutch transmission > AT transmission > CVT transmission. The Tesla Model 3's transmission is a fixed gear ratio transmission. Power-to-weight ratio: The relationship between horsepower and vehicle weight is called the power-to-weight ratio (unit is Hp/T). The higher the power-to-weight ratio, the faster the acceleration. The Tesla Model S has a power-to-weight ratio of 324 Hp/T, with a 0-100 km/h acceleration time of 3.2 seconds; the Tesla Model 3 has a power-to-weight ratio of 150 Hp/T, with a 0-100 km/h acceleration time of 6.1 seconds.

What Causes a Car Air Conditioning Compressor to Fail?

Car air conditioning compressor failure is primarily caused by operation under idle conditions. Here are the relevant details: 1. Definition of Compressor: The compressor serves as the heart of a car's air conditioning refrigeration system, responsible for compressing and transporting refrigerant vapor. Compressors are categorized into fixed displacement and variable displacement types. Based on working principles, they can be further divided into fixed displacement compressors and variable displacement compressors. 2. Working Principle of Compressor: The compressor operates by automatically adjusting power output according to preset temperatures. The air conditioning control system doesn't collect temperature signals from the evaporator outlet, but rather controls the compressor based on pressure change signals within the air conditioning pipeline.
