When the engine speed is relatively high, there will be some jerking sensation when shifting from first gear to second gear, which is caused by the significant change in gear ratio of the transmission. The mechanical structure limitations of the dual-clutch transmission and its shifting logic result in this issue. Due to the mechanical structure and principles of the dual-clutch transmission, it always has two gears engaged simultaneously.

What is the purpose of shifting gears?

Shifting gears serves to adjust the speed of the car. Below is relevant information about gear shifting: 1. Gear shifting techniques: timely, correct, smooth, and swift. 2. Purpose of gear shifting: The engine's output characteristics are fixed. If the engine's speed is directly transmitted to the wheels without change, the wheel's speed and torque would also remain constant, making it difficult to adapt to different driving conditions. For example, when going uphill, high speed is not needed, but a large torque is required, so a higher gear ratio is used. During high-speed driving, the demand for torque is lower, and the smallest gear ratio is used. The switching of these gear ratios is the work of gear shifting. Converting a fixed torque output into different torques suitable for various road conditions makes the car more flexible and adaptable.

What is the correct method for installing oil seals?

The correct method for installing oil seals is: 1. Secure the guide shaft to the front section of the engine's crankshaft using three hex socket bolts, and drive them in with a hex wrench; 2. Install the rear crankshaft oil seal onto the guide shaft, which serves as a guide; 3. Install the pressure plate onto the guide shaft, and use an adjustable wrench to turn the nut, pressing the oil seal into place with the pressure plate; 4. Remove the specialized maintenance tool, and the rear crankshaft oil seal installation is complete. Oil seals, also known as shaft seals, are components in machinery used to prevent fluid from leaking at joints. The representative form of oil seals is the TC oil seal, which is a double-lip oil seal fully encased in rubber with a self-tightening spring. Generally, when referring to oil seals, this type of TC skeleton oil seal is commonly meant.

Where is the engine number located on the JAC S3?

The engine number of the JAC S3 is located beneath the engine, near the exhaust manifold. To view the engine number, the vehicle needs to be lifted using a car lift. It typically consists of a combination of 7 to 8 digits and letters. In addition to the method mentioned above, the engine number can also be checked through the following 4 ways: The vehicle's driving license displays the engine number, usually found on the second-to-last line; The motor vehicle registration certificate records the engine number; The purchase invoice of the vehicle includes the engine number; The vehicle purchase tax payment certificate also states the engine number. It is important to note that the engine number is not the same as the engine model. The engine model refers to the specifications and size of the engine within the manufacturer's range, and multiple engines can share the same model. On the other hand, the engine number is the production serial number of the engine, where each engine has a unique number that cannot be duplicated.

Why doesn't the locking light flash on the new Sagitar?

The reasons why the locking light doesn't flash on the new Sagitar are as follows: The vehicle did not successfully complete the locking operation: At this time, you need to check whether the four doors, engine hood, and trunk are completely closed. Only when they are in the closed state will the anti-theft system complete the locking operation. In addition, some models are equipped with a one-button start. If the vehicle is not turned off, even if all doors are closed, the anti-theft system still cannot complete the locking operation. The anti-theft or anti-theft warning system has malfunctioned: For example, damage to the sensors on the doors, hood, or trunk, a circuit fault between the anti-theft control computer and the hazard warning flasher, or the hazard warning flasher's fuse being blown, a short circuit, etc., resulting in the control key not causing the locking light to flash when locking the vehicle.
