The following are the reasons for the abnormal noise in the manual transmission of the Emgrand GS: Hissing noise when shifting gears: The clutch is indeed not fully disengaged. Solution: Adjust the clutch pedal and the clutch slave cylinder push rod. If there is still no effect, it is recommended to replace the pressure plate. No noise during acceleration, but noise during deceleration: In a specific gear, such as 3rd gear, a buzzing sound is heard when the accelerator pedal is released, and the noise disappears as soon as acceleration is applied. In severe cases, this is usually accompanied by abnormal noise when shifting from 2nd to 3rd gear. The reason for this situation is also obvious: the synchronizer meshing ring is damaged. There are 3 to 4 synchronizers in a transmission, so simply replacing the synchronizer assembly of the faulty gear (3rd gear) can completely solve the problem.

I've been driving a manual Geely Emgrand GS for several years and have encountered transmission noise issues. The most common cause I've found is gear wear, especially in older cars with frequent gear shifts—the gears can develop notches, causing a clunking sound when engaging. My car had this issue last time; upon inspection, the synchronizer was slightly damaged, affecting shift smoothness. Additionally, aging transmission oil can lead to insufficient lubrication, causing internal parts to grind and produce noise. That's why I recommend changing the transmission oil every two years as a preventive measure. If the clutch release bearing is damaged, you'll hear abnormal noises when pressing the pedal—don't delay fixing this, as a small issue can escalate into full transmission damage. The Emgrand GS offers strong handling, but its manual transmission requires extra maintenance. Regular upkeep can extend the car's lifespan. In short, if you hear noises, start with simple checks like fluid levels, and if that doesn't help, visit a specialist workshop for diagnosis to avoid skyrocketing repair costs later.

As someone who has repaired many manual transmissions, the common causes of abnormal noises in the Emgrand GS I've encountered include bearing wear. For example, a faulty input shaft bearing can cause a continuous humming sound, especially noticeable in neutral. Severe gear wear can result in a clunking sound when shifting, and synchronizer failure can also lead to this issue, as it is responsible for balancing the shifting process. Clutch system problems should not be overlooked; a faulty release bearing will produce noise when the clutch is depressed, and failing to replace it in time may lead to gear damage. Maintenance is crucial—transmission oil must be clean and sufficient, as insufficient lubrication accelerates component wear. Cars like the Emgrand GS are generally reliable, but manual transmissions require regular checks of oil levels and condition—prevention is better than cure. Simply put, abnormal noises are not a minor issue. I recommend getting a professional inspection as soon as they appear. Don't skimp on the inspection fee to avoid greater losses.

My Emgrand GS manual transmission has been making strange noises recently, probably because I drove it too aggressively. The gears might have some scratches, and I often hear a clicking sound when shifting. Old transmission fluid can also cause this—insufficient lubrication leads to friction noises, so changing the oil might help. There's also a humming noise when I press the clutch, which I suspect is a failing release bearing. Fixing it won't be cheap. Regular maintenance is crucial, and I always remind myself not to drive too harshly, especially to shift gently and reduce stress on the transmission. The Emgrand GS has great handling, but the manual transmission needs extra care. Addressing small issues early saves big trouble later.

Is the Volkswagen Golf GTI four-wheel drive?

The Golf GTI is not four-wheel drive; it is a front-engine, front-wheel-drive vehicle. Front-engine, front-wheel drive means the engine is positioned at the front of the car, and the front wheels drive the entire vehicle. Four-wheel drive refers to a system where all four wheels operate independently during driving, providing higher cornering limits on the road and optimal power distribution to each wheel during high-speed turns. The Golf GTI is equipped with a 2.0-liter turbocharged engine, delivering a maximum power of 162 kW and a maximum torque of 350 Nm. The engine achieves its peak power at 4,500 to 6,200 rpm and its peak torque at 1,500 to 4,400 rpm. This engine features hybrid injection technology and uses an aluminum cylinder head with a cast iron cylinder block. Part-time four-wheel drive: Part-time four-wheel drive is a system where the driver can manually switch between two-wheel drive and four-wheel drive. The driver can engage or disengage the transfer case to achieve two-wheel or four-wheel drive based on driving needs. Full-time four-wheel drive: Full-time four-wheel drive means that all four wheels of the vehicle are independently driven at all times during operation. This system requires the use of a central differential. Full-time four-wheel drive first appeared in Subaru vehicles. This four-wheel-drive mode significantly enhances the vehicle's off-road capability and handling performance.

What are the consequences of deducting 6 points?

A deduction of 6 points on your driver's license has no significant impact as long as you do not accumulate 12 points within one cycle. According to Article 24 of the "Regulations for the Implementation of the Road Traffic Safety Law of the People's Republic of China": If a motor vehicle driver's accumulated points within a scoring cycle do not reach 12 points and the imposed fines have been paid, the points will be cleared. If the points do not reach 12 points but there are unpaid fines, the points will carry over to the next scoring cycle. Below are relevant details about driver's license point deductions: 1. Scoring Cycle: The cumulative scoring cycle for road traffic safety violations (i.e., the scoring cycle) is 12 months, with a maximum of 12 points, calculated from the date the driver's license was initially issued, and so on in a continuous cycle. The license's point-clearing date is the issuance date on the license, and the system automatically clears the points on that date each year. The scoring cycle is one year from the "initial issuance date" of the license, and so on in a continuous cycle. 2. Handling of Accumulating 12 Points: If you accumulate 12 points, you must attend a study session and pass the subject one exam at the vehicle management office where the license was issued or where the violation occurred (if you accumulate 12 points twice consecutively in one scoring cycle, you must also pass the subject three exam after upgrading). Only after passing can the points be reset. Otherwise, the driver's license cannot be used normally.

Can the ETC details of the day be queried?

ETC details of the day can be queried. Users can log in to the Speedpass company website with their card number and password to check the consumption records of the past six months. ETC is the abbreviation of Electronic-Toll-Collection, which translates to Electronic Toll Collection System in Chinese. It is an automatic toll collection system for highways or bridges. More information about ETC is as follows: 1. Working Principle: Through dedicated short-range communication between the onboard electronic tag installed on the vehicle's windshield and the microwave antenna in the ETC lane at the toll station, the system uses computer networking technology and bank system backend settlement processing to enable vehicles to pass through highway or bridge toll stations without stopping to pay the toll. 2. Improved Traffic Capacity: It can significantly increase the traffic capacity at entrances and exits, improving the user experience for vehicle owners and achieving the goal of convenient and quick access to parking lots. It allows drivers to avoid long queues at manual toll windows and directly pass through the less congested ETC dedicated lanes without stopping. One ETC lane's service capacity is equivalent to that of 3 to 5 manual exit lanes. 3. Precautions for Using ETC: The transaction range of ETC is 8 meters, and the toll will be automatically completed when the vehicle enters the transaction zone. When there is a vehicle in front, maintain a distance of 10 meters to prevent automatic sensing and paying the toll for the preceding vehicle.
