The water temperature warning light illuminates due to excessively high water temperature. In such a situation, you should find a safe place to pull over, but do not turn off the engine. Instead, exit the vehicle and open the hood to allow the engine to cool down. High water temperature is mostly caused by the coolant not being replaced for a long time or issues with the coolant circulation. Solutions: 1. Lack of antifreeze: Check for leaks, repair the issue, and then refill to the correct level; 2. Poor water circulation: The thermostat may not open properly or is stuck in a fully closed position, requiring replacement; 3. Reduced water pump efficiency leading to poor circulation and high temperature, possibly due to damaged pump blades, necessitating a pump replacement; 4. The cooling fan fails to operate properly when the water temperature rises, requiring inspection of fuses, relay circuits, or checking and replacing the fan.

How to distinguish whether it is a tubeless tire?

Methods to identify a tubeless tire are as follows: 1. Marking: The marking on a tubeless tire is "TUBELESS", which translates to "no inner tube tire" in Chinese. 2. Inner tube: If there is no inner tube, it is a tubeless tire. 3. Valve: The valve of a tubeless tire is directly connected to the rim and sealed with rubber. Advantages of tubeless tires: Tubeless tires are more fuel-efficient than regular tires. Due to the absence of an inner tube, the structure is simpler, making the tire lighter with lower rolling resistance, which results in reduced fuel consumption. Additionally, because the ground pressure of tubeless tires is more evenly distributed, tire wear is more uniform, thereby extending the tire's service life.

What is the reason for the car showing not in P gear when it is actually in P gear?

If the car is already in P gear but still shows that it is not in P gear, it is because the gear is not fully engaged. Re-engaging the gear can solve the problem. Here is some relevant information: Automatic transmission: As the name suggests, an automatic transmission does not require the driver to manually shift gears. The vehicle will automatically select the appropriate gear based on the driving speed and traffic conditions. Generally, automatic transmission cars have six gear positions, arranged from top to bottom as follows: P, R, N, D, S, L. P gear: P gear is the most common gear in automatic transmission models, usually located at the frontmost position of the gearshift console, in front of the R gear. Its purpose is to lock the axle when the car is stationary on a slope through the gear position.
