Car paint scratch repair techniques are as follows: 1. Shallow scratch repair: Use a compound to wipe along the scratch line until the scratch disappears, then repeat with a fine compound and apply wax. 2. Light scratch repair: Dip a soft brush tip into paint and dab it on, then wait for it to dry. 3. Deep scratch repair: Use putty for repair. Sand the scratched area, clean it thoroughly, apply putty carefully to fill the gaps completely, then apply compound and wax. 4. Severe scratch repair: Use a coating paint that matches the car body color, paying attention to ensure the paint thickness matches the surrounding area.

How to Start a Car Correctly?

The one-button start is part of a smart car. After getting into the car, make the necessary preparations before starting, then press the brake and push the one-button start button to ignite the vehicle. After successful ignition, the car can begin normal operation. China's one-button start technology for cars is relatively advanced globally. As long as the smart key is within the car's sensing range, the vehicle can detect the key's presence and enable remote start. This not only reflects the vehicle's intelligence but also plays a significant role in anti-theft measures. The one-button start technology greatly simplifies the car ignition process and reduces the use of car keys. However, even vehicles equipped with a one-button start function usually have a key lock, but the key is more often used as a backup option to prevent the car from failing to start due to a malfunction in the one-button start feature. Additionally, during driving, the one-button start function can automatically lock and unlock when the engine is off, avoiding safety hazards associated with opening doors.

What is the abbreviation of ESP?

ESP stands for Electronic Stability Programme. It belongs to the active safety system of vehicles and can also be referred to as a dynamic driving control system. Based on the ABS (Anti-lock Braking System) and ASR (Traction Control System), ESP incorporates additional information from sensors such as the steering wheel angle sensor and lateral acceleration sensor. By controlling the wheel brakes and engine power, it corrects skidding. ESP working principle: During vehicle operation, the steering wheel angle sensor monitors the driver's turning direction and angle, the vehicle speed sensor monitors the speed and throttle opening, the brake master cylinder pressure sensor monitors the braking force, while the lateral acceleration sensor and yaw rate sensor monitor the vehicle's yaw and roll speed. The ECU processes this information to calculate the discrepancy between the vehicle's intended safe path and the driver's input. The ECU then issues commands to adjust the engine speed and braking force on the wheels. If there is a deviation between the actual and desired trajectory, the ESP system automatically applies braking to specific wheels to correct oversteer or understeer, preventing skidding, excessive steering, insufficient steering, or wheel lock-up, thereby ensuring driving safety. ESP functions: It ensures vehicle stability (laterally) during steering maneuvers, preventing side skidding. ESP can detect the driver's intentions and actual driving conditions at a frequency of 25 times per second. During steering, it can automatically and selectively brake individual wheels or control the engine and automatic transmission to maintain stable vehicle operation. ESP components: Sensors: steering wheel angle sensor (monitors steering angle), wheel speed sensors, yaw rate sensor (monitors rotation around the vertical axis), lateral acceleration sensor (monitors wheel lateral slip), brake pressure sensor, ECU, and actuators.

Where is the first aid kit located in the car?

Car models equipped with a first aid kit usually place it in the trunk, generally near the spare tire or next to the fire extinguishers on either side. Relevant information about the car first aid kit is as follows: Introduction: The car first aid kit is a package equipped with medicines and emergency supplies in the vehicle, mainly used for self-rescue in case of a traffic accident. As of June 2019, there is no specific regulation in China requiring cars to be equipped with a first aid kit, but some cities have included it as one of the mandatory requirements. Contents: A car first aid kit generally includes triangular bandages, elastic head covers, emergency blankets, buckle-type tourniquets, medical gloves, hemostatic pads, disposable instant cold packs, band-aids, iodine swabs, isolation masks, motion sickness medicine, gauze, etc. The contents of the first aid kit may vary slightly depending on the car model.

What kind of road has a speed limit of 40 on the highway?

Highways have a minimum speed limit of 60 and a maximum of 120. Under normal circumstances, the lowest limit cannot be 40. Urban roads have speed limits of 40~60 km/h; suburban roads have speed limits of 70~80 km/h; national highways, provincial roads, and other primary roads have speed limits of 80 km/h; highways generally have speed limits of 110~120 km/h. The speed limit on highways refers to not exceeding the specified speed. If the speed limit is 40, the speed cannot exceed 40. Speeding over 40 is illegal. For speeding not exceeding 50%, the fine is 2000. For speeding over 50%, the driver's license will be suspended for three months, and a fine of 2000 yuan will be imposed.

How Long Should a Long-Term Parked Car Be Started?

Cars that are parked for extended periods should ideally be started at least once a week, and it's even better if they can be driven for ten to twenty minutes. The purpose of this is to allow the alternator to charge the battery, preventing battery drain, while also ensuring that various fluids are adequately circulated. This provides better lubrication for the engine and helps distribute the load evenly on the tires, preventing deformation due to prolonged uneven pressure on one side. If a car remains parked and unused for a long time, issues such as reduced battery capacity, increased body corrosion, deterioration of engine oil, transmission fluid, and gasoline, tire deformation, brake disc rusting, and aging of rubber components may occur. When a car is parked for an extended period, the engine oil can oxidize, leading to aging and potential leaks. Additionally, acidic substances in the oil can cause severe corrosion to engine components. It is advisable to drain the oil if the car will be parked for a long time. If the engine remains idle for too long, the lubricating oil on the surfaces of its components may drip down into the oil pan, leaving the parts unprotected and prone to rust. Starting the car once a week and driving it for at least half an hour ensures proper lubrication of all engine components, maintains the battery's charge, and prevents rusting of engine parts.
