It could be an issue with the clutch or the gear system. Below is a detailed introduction to the specific functions of automatic transmission gears in vehicles: 1. R (Reverse) Gear: When this gear is engaged, it connects the hydraulic system's reverse gear circuit, causing the drive wheels to rotate in reverse for backward movement. The vehicle must come to a complete stop before shifting into "R" gear; otherwise, it may damage the transmission. 2. N (Neutral) Gear: When neutral is engaged, the planetary gear system idles without transmitting power. 3. D (Drive) Gear: When the gear selector is in this position, the hydraulic control system automatically connects the corresponding forward gear circuit based on throttle opening and vehicle speed signals. It can shift up or down automatically according to driving speed, enabling automatic transmission functionality. 4. P (Park) Gear: This gear uses a mechanical device to lock the vehicle's rotating parts, preventing the car from moving.

Why Can't You Drive When the Transmission Warning Light Is On?

You should not continue driving when the transmission warning light is on. Reasons: Do not blindly continue driving to prevent severe damage to the transmission. If the transmission warning light is on but the engine speed and vehicle speed are normal, you may continue driving. However, if any driving issues arise, visit a 4S shop as soon as possible to check for faults and avoid potential hazards. Function of the Transmission: The transmission changes the gear ratio, expands the range of torque and speed variation of the driving wheels, and allows the vehicle to reverse while maintaining the engine's rotation direction. It enables engine startup and gear shifting. The transmission consists of a gear transmission mechanism and a control mechanism. Precautions: If the electronic components of the automatic transmission (sensors, solenoid valves, or the control module) experience intermittent or persistent failures, the engine warning light may illuminate. In such cases, remain vigilant and promptly check for any faults.

17-inch Wheels: 215 or 225?

If the original vehicle has 195/65/R15 tires, switching to 225/45/R17 is the most suitable option as there will be no change in diameter and circumference, ensuring no deviation in the speedometer and odometer. Using 215 tires may result in a slight deviation, but the impact is minimal. Below is the relevant information: 1. Wheel Hub: The wheel hub is the rotating part of the wheel steel connected through pillars inside the tire, which is the metal component mounted on the axle that supports the tire. It is also known as the wheel rim, steel rim, or tire ring. Wheel hubs come in various types based on diameter, width, forming method, and material. 2. Size: The wheel hub size refers to the diameter of the wheel hub, with 15 and 16 inches indicating the size (diameter) of the wheel hub. Generally, in passenger cars, larger wheel hub sizes with higher tire aspect ratios can create a visually appealing tension effect and improve the stability of vehicle handling. However, this comes with the additional issue of increased fuel consumption.

Should the foot always stay on the accelerator in a manual transmission car?

In a manual transmission car, the foot does not need to stay on the accelerator all the time. When braking is needed, the foot should be placed on the brake pedal. Pre-departure check: Before setting off each day, conduct a comprehensive vehicle inspection, including checking for oil or water leaks, measuring tire pressure to ensure it is appropriate, inspecting the engine oil condition to verify its color is normal and the oil level is correct. Safe driving: Use seat belts correctly. In the event of a severe collision, seat belts provide protection no less effective than airbags. Avoid fatigued driving and take breaks every 2 hours. Traffic rule compliance: Especially on highways, do not exceed speed limits. Speeding may not only result in traffic police penalties but, more importantly, is unsafe.

What Tools Are Needed for Motorcycle Travel?

Motorcycle travel requires preparation of simple repair tools such as spark plugs, inner tubes, tire repair fluid, chain links, and a pump (or inflator). Precautions for motorcycle riding: Avoid racing with cars, drive safely in accordance with traffic regulations, and yield to pedestrians. Do not follow too closely; maintain an appropriate distance behind the right rear corner of the vehicle in front. When overtaking, pass from the left side of the vehicle ahead; overtaking from the right or between two parallel vehicles is prohibited. Speed limits for motorcycles: The speed of a motorcycle on the highway must not exceed 80 kilometers per hour. Exceeding this limit will result in penalties from traffic police. Additionally, riding on the highway without a helmet will lead to being stopped and fined by traffic police, and carrying passengers on the highway is strictly prohibited.

Is there a fee for annual vehicle inspection?

Annual vehicle inspection requires a fee. The purpose of annual inspection: After passing the final inspection review, you need to pay the fee to receive the label. Pay the relevant fees at each window, get the deposit refunded, and pay the administrative fee to receive the "Motor Vehicle Inspection Qualification Mark". The validity period will be printed on both the label and the supplementary page of the vehicle license. The expiration date (indicating the next inspection month) will be written on the back of the green label. The inspection mark will be punched with holes - the month with holes indicates the next inspection month. Annual inspection items: Mainly include motor vehicle testing, safety testing, exhaust emission testing, plus some handling fees. The charging standards vary across different regions. The 2018 inspection regulations eliminated multiple inspection fees, including appearance inspection fee, tax pre-entry fee, procedure printing fee, electronic transmission fee, and other 6 inspection item fees.
