Buick Envision's transmission for the 2.0T model uses a 9-speed automatic transmission, while the 1.5T model employs a 7-speed dual-clutch (DCT) transmission. The transmission of the Buick Envision is a brand independently developed by SAIC-GM. The correct operation methods for the transmission are as follows: 1. Slightly press the accelerator. Before shifting (upshifting), slightly increase the throttle to provide the engine with adequate power, ensuring the speed does not drop during the shifting process. 2. Close the throttle. After slightly increasing the throttle, quickly close it by turning the throttle grip forward and downward to the bottom with your right hand. 3. Quickly pull the clutch lever. Almost simultaneously with closing the throttle, use the four fingers of your left hand (thumb remains on the handlebar) to pull the clutch lever all the way down, disengaging the clutch as quickly as possible to prepare for shifting. 4. Step on the gear shift pedal. After pulling the clutch lever with your left hand, immediately use the sole or heel of your left foot to press the gear shift pedal to shift to a higher gear. Apply just the right amount of force, and the action should be swift and decisive, avoiding hesitation or repeated pressing. 5. Gradually release the clutch lever. After pressing the gear shift pedal with your left heel, immediately release the clutch lever with your left hand to smoothly engage the disengaged clutch, allowing the engine power to quickly transfer to the rear drive, preparing to increase the vehicle speed. 6. Increase the throttle. After releasing the clutch lever with your left hand, promptly turn the throttle grip downward and backward with your right hand to open the closed throttle to a moderate degree, avoiding excessive or abrupt opening.

What to Do If the Wiper Arm Cannot Be Removed?

If the wiper arm cannot be removed, you can spray some rust remover and shake it more, or use a dedicated wiper arm puller. The method for removing the wiper arm: Stand the wiper arm completely upright, and based on the angle after placement, you can start the removal. Use one hand to lift the rubber wiper blade, and with the other hand, open the rubber wiper blade side by side underneath to separate the wiper from the wiper arm. Then remove the entire wiper arm. The wiper arm, also known as the wiper linkage, is the strip-shaped part in front of the car that supports the wiper—the part connecting the wiper to the car. The wiper is like a person's hand, and the wiper arm is like the arm. The wiper refers to the blade structure installed in front of the windshield, consisting of a motor, reducer, four-bar linkage, wiper arm spindle, and wiper blade assembly.

Where is the Lexus Handbrake Button Located?

Lexus handbrake button is located behind the gear shift lever, with 'P' marking the handbrake button. The electronic parking brake is a technology that achieves parking braking through electronic control, sharing the same working principle as the mechanical handbrake—both utilize friction generated between the brake disc and brake pads to control parking braking. The only difference lies in the control method, which has evolved from the traditional mechanical handbrake lever to an electronic button. Lexus is a luxury automobile brand under the Toyota Group. Taking the Lexus NX as an example, its body dimensions are 4640mm in length, 1845mm in width, and 1645mm in height. In terms of exterior design, the Lexus NX inherits numerous successful elements from the concept car, maintaining a stunning and impressive styling even in its production version. The muscular body lines leave a very strong impression.

Do I Need to Add Engine Break-in Protector for the First Maintenance of a New Car?

It is not necessary to add a break-in protector during the first maintenance of a car. Break-in Protector: A break-in protector is a lubricating additive with ultra-strong cleaning and dispersing effects, providing superior protection for engines during the break-in period. It prevents common issues such as cylinder scoring and bearing burning that are prone to occur in engines during the break-in period. Car maintenance includes: Replacement of parts: Replacing engine oil, oil filter, cabin air filter, and engine air filter; Inspections: Checking the levels of coolant, battery fluid, and windshield washer fluid; inspecting the fluid levels of the brake and clutch systems, as well as the power steering fluid reservoir; checking for oil leaks at all oil pipe interfaces; inspecting front and rear lights; checking tire pressure and wear, and tightening screws to the specified torque.

How to Know Which Gear You're In?

Methods to check which gear your car is in are as follows: 1. Primarily observe the tachometer and speedometer: The RPM on the tachometer should generally not exceed 2000 for optimal performance. Start in 1st gear, shift to 2nd when RPM reaches around 1800 and speed is approximately 10 km/h. Similarly for 2nd gear, shift to 3rd when speed exceeds 20 km/h. For gears beyond 3rd, monitor the RPM and shift when it reaches around 2000. The same applies for 4th and 5th gears. 2. Judge by the engine sound: When upshifting, change gears when the engine power is sufficient during driving, indicated by a relaxed engine sound. For downshifting, do the opposite – shift when the engine struggles during driving, noticeable by a heavy engine sound, requiring timely gear changes. In fact, when climbing steep slopes, don't wait until the engine can't handle it before shifting; anticipate slightly to ensure smooth driving.

Why is there water leaking from the car chassis?

The main reason for water leaking from the car chassis is the absence of a water-draining hose at the bottom of the vehicle. After turning on the car's air conditioning, the condensed moisture can only be discharged directly from the chassis, resulting in the appearance of water leakage. Common damages to the car chassis include: scraping the bottom and impact from foreign objects: When roads are under repair, there are often large stones or uneven surfaces. If the car is driven on such roads, large stones or other protruding objects may come into direct contact with the vehicle's chassis if not careful. Corrosion: With the worsening environment, even the rain has become acid rain, increasing the likelihood of damage to the car under such conditions. Since the chassis frequently comes into contact with sewage, grease, and other substances, the chemical components in these materials can slowly corrode the chassis and its components. Therefore, extra attention should be paid to chassis anti-corrosion measures.

Should the left side yield to the right side when changing lanes?

When changing lanes, the left side should yield to the right side, as stipulated in traffic regulations. Below are the relevant details: Regulations: According to Article 52 of the "Regulations for the Implementation of the Road Traffic Safety Law of the People's Republic of China", when motor vehicles pass through an intersection without traffic signal control or traffic police command, and there are traffic signs or markings, the party with the right of way should proceed first; in the absence of traffic signs or markings, vehicles should stop and look before entering the intersection, yielding to vehicles coming from the right. Traffic Rules: When vehicles from both the left and right sides are changing lanes towards the center simultaneously, the left-side vehicle must yield to the right-side vehicle. This is a safety consideration, as a collision could impact the driver's side of the right-side vehicle, hence the left-side vehicle must yield to the right-side vehicle.
