Reducing Blind Spots Since the streaming rearview mirror captures the rear view of the vehicle directly through a camera, it provides a wider field of vision and more intuitive images, significantly reducing blind spots and enhancing driving safety. Enhancing Night Vision Capabilities During nighttime driving, the powerful night vision capability of the streaming camera plays a crucial role, allowing us to clearly observe the traffic conditions behind the vehicle even at night. The Drawbacks of Streaming Rearview Mirrors Susceptibility to Dirt Some rear cameras of streaming rearview mirrors are located on the exterior of the vehicle. If they encounter dirt, mud, or other contaminants while driving, the camera can be obscured, leading to a 'blindness' effect in the rearview mirror, which poses certain safety hazards. Distortion Some streaming rearview mirrors have cameras with significant image distortion, which can easily cause drivers to misjudge vehicle distances and even experience dizziness. Therefore, when purchasing, it is essential to choose a streaming rearview mirror that meets quality standards and is backed by a reputable brand.

Speaking of streaming media rearview mirrors, I think the biggest advantage is the clearer view. Aren't regular mirrors prone to being blocked by passengers or items in the back? Especially on rainy days when the glass gets fogged up, making it hard to see. Streaming media rearview mirrors use a small camera at the rear to capture the view behind and display it directly on the screen in front. No worries about rain, and no fear of being blinded by high beams from cars behind when driving at night. The wide-angle lens provides a better view of adjacent lanes, making lane changes much more reassuring. Plus, most come with built-in recording functions, so if anything happens, the rear situation is recorded, making evidence collection easier. Although it might take some getting used to at first, once accustomed, it's really great—much better visibility.

Honestly, this thing solved a major headache for me! My car's back seats are often fully occupied, and the headrests would block the view completely. After installing the streaming rearview mirror, no matter how many people are sitting in the back or how high the luggage is piled up, I can see everything happening on the road behind me clearly. It's especially noticeable when driving at night—the screen brightness is just right, not glaring, and the image is even clearer than what the naked eye can see in the dark. The key is there are no blind spots anymore. Before, I had to crane my neck and twist my body to check when changing lanes, but now, a quick glance at the screen gives me a good idea if there's any car coming from the adjacent lane. The only thing to watch out for is keeping the lens clean—don't let mud or snow cover it—otherwise, it's pretty hassle-free.

The main reason for using this rearview mirror is that it provides a more comprehensive and practical view. Traditional mirrors have a limited field of vision, right? But with this one, the lens is wide-angle, allowing you to see cars in all three lanes behind you, making it easier to avoid tailgating or keeping a safe distance from fast-moving vehicles. It's especially useful during heavy rain—while ordinary mirrors just turn blurry, this one relies on camera imaging, so even if the rear windshield isn't perfectly clear due to ineffective wipers, it doesn't matter. For daily parking, this lens helps with the direct rear view angle, and when used alongside the reversing camera, it's much more convenient than relying solely on reflective mirrors.

Is 4 Liters of Engine Oil Enough for One Maintenance?

Generally, 4 liters of engine oil is sufficient for one maintenance. The exact amount of oil needed depends on the vehicle model, and some models may require different amounts of oil due to varying engine displacements. Here is relevant information: 1. Too much oil: This can easily increase engine load and affect performance; over time, the engine's exhaust ventilation system may also be damaged, carbon deposits may increase, and excessive oil may cause some oil to enter the combustion chamber, leading to oil burning. 2. Too little oil: This will result in insufficient lubrication of engine components, accelerating their wear. Oil also plays a crucial role in cooling and heat dissipation. If the oil level is too low, the engine's cooling and heat dissipation capacity will weaken, causing internal overheating and further leading to phenomena such as bearing seizure and cylinder scoring.

What brand of antifreeze is used in the Besturn X40?

The antifreeze used in the Besturn X40 is from the Great Wall Kunlun brand. Antifreeze is a special additive-containing coolant primarily used in liquid-cooled engine cooling systems. It offers excellent performance characteristics such as freeze protection in winter, boil-over prevention in summer, and year-round protection against scale and corrosion. Composition of antifreeze: The main components of antifreeze are: 50% purified water, 40% methanol, and 10% other substances. Types of antifreeze: Antifreeze is generally categorized into three types: ethanol-water type, glycerin-water type, and ethylene glycol-water type. Can different antifreeze brands be mixed? It is necessary to use the same brand of antifreeze. Different brands may have varying production formulas, and mixing them could lead to chemical reactions between additives, rendering them ineffective. How to choose antifreeze: The basic indicators for antifreeze are freezing point and boiling point. Market-available antifreeze comes in several freezing point specifications such as -15°C, -25°C, -30°C, and -40°C. Generally, it's advisable to choose one that is at least 10°C lower than the lowest temperature in your region.
