Unlike conventional transmissions that transfer power through gear engagement, CVT transmissions rely solely on a steel belt for power transmission. Consequently, when the vehicle is under excessive load, the steel belt is prone to slipping or even breaking. Solutions are as follows: 1. According to the manufacturer's maintenance manual, the optimal solution for CVT transmission slipping is to directly replace the transmission. 2. During maintenance, visit a 4S dealership to have the CVTF (transmission fluid) degradation value checked via computer. If the degradation value divided by the total vehicle mileage is less than 2, it indicates normal conditions. However, if it exceeds 2, transmission repair is recommended to reduce the degradation value.

How to Check the Deduction Points of a Motor Vehicle Driver's License?

There are five ways to check the deduction points of a motor vehicle driver's license. You can visit the office halls of traffic branches and teams in various districts and counties to inquire through touch-screen terminals; log in to the external service websites of the public security traffic management bureaus of various cities, find the relevant section, enter the license plate number and vehicle engine number, and click to inquire; call the voice inquiry hotline; check violations by sending a mobile phone text message; or use traffic violation inquiry tools by entering the license plate information. Below is some relevant information from the traffic laws regarding driver's license point deductions: 1. Handling of two 6-point violations: You can first process one 6-point violation record, as general violation records are registered on the motor vehicle, not the driver's license, so one 6-point violation can be handled first. However, if both violations are on-site tickets issued by traffic police, the driver's license is usually already detained, and you need to attend full-point education at the traffic police department. 2. Handling of insufficient 12 points: According to relevant regulations, if a driver's license accumulates 12 points within a single scoring cycle, the motor vehicle driver must report to the traffic police department or the license issuing authority within 15 days for a 7-day study of road traffic safety laws, regulations, and related knowledge. After completing the study, the driver must take the subject one exam. Only after passing the exam can the points be cleared, and the driver's license returned.

How to Repair a Small Scratch on Car Paint?

Methods to repair a small scratch on car paint include using a touch-up pen, wiping it off quickly with a clean towel, or purchasing new paint for repair. Specific details are as follows: 1. Minor scratches: For small car scratches, you can use a touch-up pen. Before using it, shake the paint in the touch-up pen well, then apply it evenly to the scratched area. After the paint dries, use polishing wax to further repair by grinding the scratched area clockwise with the wax. 2. Primer not damaged: First, upon discovering the scratch, assess its severity. If it's just a light scratch with faint black marks on the paint and the primer is not damaged, quickly take out a clean towel, dampen it, and wipe off the black marks with force. 3. Primer damaged: If the primer is damaged but the scratched area is not deformed or dented, it should be addressed promptly to prevent oxidation and corrosion. Purchase paint that matches your car's primer color and follow the instructions for repair, or go to a professional repair shop for better results.

What Causes Engine Shaking When Starting the Car?

The reasons for engine shaking when starting the car are as follows: 1. Misfire or cylinder failure: This is the most common cause of engine shaking, usually due to issues with the ignition coil or spark plugs. If the ignition coil malfunctions or the spark plug fails to fire for some reason, the car will experience shaking. 2. Carbon buildup: Severe carbon deposits inside the engine can affect various parameters, leading to clogged spark plugs or valves, which cause the engine to shake. Additionally, it can result in unstable power output. In such cases, an internal engine cleaning at a 4S shop is recommended. 3. Worn engine mounts: Engine mounts are rubber blocks between the engine and the frame, designed to reduce vibrations during engine operation and secure the engine. Once the engine mounts become worn or loose, the body and engine will shake abnormally. Simply replacing the engine mounts will provide an immediate improvement.

What to Do When the Booster Pump Pressure is Too High?

The pressure of the booster pump can be reduced by adjusting it. Below are specific methods for reducing the pressure of different types of booster pumps: 1. Fully Automatic: Frequency conversion automatic booster pumps are simple to operate. You only need to adjust the target pressure value in the pressure settings on the control panel. The adjustment methods vary slightly among different manufacturers. If it is an ordinary differential pressure and flow automatic booster pump, most of them cannot be adjusted. However, you can indirectly adjust the pressure by reducing the flow rate through partially closing the inlet and outlet valves. After this adjustment, the pressure will drop significantly when the water usage increases slightly. Alternatively, you can install a pressure reducing valve at the outlet to adjust the pressure. 2. Non-Automatic: If valves are installed at the inlet and outlet, you can appropriately reduce the inlet and outlet water flow by partially closing the valves, thereby indirectly lowering the head. As long as the water usage increases, the pressure will drop. If a pressure reducing valve is installed at the outlet, you only need to adjust it to the desired pressure by observing the gauge.

How to Clean the Interior Car Roof?

The method for cleaning the interior car roof: Use foam cleaner and a brush for large-scale cleaning, then wipe it dry with a towel. However, it is important to note that the padding inside the roof is made of heat insulation and sound-absorbing material, which has strong water absorption. Therefore, the towel must be kept relatively dry during cleaning; otherwise, the roof material will become soaked and difficult to dry thoroughly. The tools needed for cleaning the interior car roof include a shoe brush, toothbrush, bamboo skewers or toothpicks, plenty of tissue paper, diluted dishwashing liquid or household laundry detergent, a spray bottle, leather protectant, foam cleaner, several towels, a steam generator, and all-purpose cleaner.

What to Do When Driver's License Points Exceed 12?

If the demerit points on your driver's license exceed 12, your license will be temporarily suspended. To restore your driving privileges, you must participate in road regulations and traffic safety knowledge training. The specific requirements vary for different license types: 1. For C-class licenses: The license will be revoked, meaning all your previous efforts to obtain the license will be void. You will need to retake all the tests (Subjects 1, 2, and 3) and pay the tuition fees again. 2. For A and B-class licenses: The license will be revoked and downgraded. Drivers holding licenses for large buses, trailers, city buses, medium-sized buses, or large trucks who accumulate 6 or more points (but less than 12) during their one-year probation period will have their probation extended by one year. If they accumulate another 6 or more points (but less than 12) during the extended probation period, their probationary driving qualification for the respective vehicle type will be revoked. If the revoked driving qualification is not for the highest permitted vehicle type, the highest permitted vehicle type driving qualification will also be revoked.
