ECVT continuously variable transmission refers to a hybrid transmission integrated with electric motors, which has a completely different structure from CVT, though theoretically it can achieve continuously variable transmission. The structure of CVT mainly consists of two sets of pulleys (drive pulley and driven pulley), a transmission belt (steel belt), oil pump, torque converter, actuating mechanism (valve body, oil circuit), sensors, and control computer. Its composition is relatively complex, and the steel belt has limited torque capacity, generally only suitable for use in small vehicles as a transmission system. The structure of ECVT is relatively simple, lacking complex mechanisms such as clutches, torque converters, or gear shaft sets found in traditional transmission systems. It is composed of a set of planetary gears and two electric motors.

What does Subaru AT-OIL-TEMP mean?

Subaru AT-OIL-TEMP indicates that the automatic transmission fluid temperature is too high. Below is relevant information about automatic transmissions: 1. Definition: The core function of an automatic transmission is to achieve automatic gear shifting. Automatic gear shifting means that while driving, the driver operates the accelerator pedal as needed, and the automatic transmission can automatically shift into different gears based on engine load and the vehicle's operating conditions. 2. Classification: There are four common types of automatic transmissions: hydraulic automatic transmission, mechanical continuously variable transmission, electronically controlled mechanical automatic transmission, and dual-clutch automatic transmission. 3. Maintenance Method: Start the engine and warm up the transmission fluid to about 50°C. Then move the gear selector through each gear position, pausing for 2 seconds in each, before placing it in the parking gear. At this point, the normal fluid level on the dipstick should be between the maximum and minimum marks. If it is insufficient, promptly add the same quality of fluid.

What happens if brake fluid is spilled on a car?

Spilling brake fluid on a car can damage the paintwork due to its corrosive nature. It should be promptly cleaned up with a dry cloth. Brake fluid needs to be replaced under the following circumstances: 1. When the brake fluid absorbs moisture or contains impurities; 2. When the vehicle experiences inconsistent braking during normal operation; 3. When the wheel cylinder rubber cup expands excessively; 4. Brake fluid should be replaced every two years. The method for replacing brake fluid is as follows: 1. Park the vehicle on level ground, turn off the engine, and open the hood to drain the fluid from the reservoir; 2. Use a funnel to fill the reservoir with new brake fluid; 3. Use a jack to lift the vehicle and start removing the tires from the rear wheels; 4. Remove the rubber dust cap from the brake caliper; 5. Loosen the bleeder screw with a wrench, attach a rubber tube to it, and connect it to a drainage bottle; 6. Press the brake pedal inside the car while observing the drainage until the fluid level in the reservoir under the hood reaches the lower limit.

Is it harmful to idle the car and turn on the air conditioner?

Idling the car and turning on the air conditioner can be harmful. Causes battery drain: While the air conditioner compressor is driven by the engine, the blower fan is powered by the battery. When the car is idling, it may not necessarily charge the battery. Excessive power consumption by the blower fan can lead to long-term battery drain. Risk of carbon monoxide poisoning: Idling with the air conditioner on means the engine is running at a low speed, which can result in incomplete fuel combustion. In such cases, if the windows and doors are closed, the poorly combusted exhaust gases can enter the car, increasing the risk of carbon monoxide poisoning for the driver. Increased fuel consumption: According to related tests, idling with the air conditioner on can increase fuel consumption. When the air conditioner is on, both the air conditioner unit and the condenser need to work, which creates additional resistance for the engine. To maintain stable idling, the engine requires more fuel, leading to higher fuel consumption compared to not using the air conditioner.

What to Do If Caught Not Wearing a Seat Belt?

The penalty for being caught not wearing a seat belt is a fine and points deduction. Below are the specific regulations regarding penalties for not wearing a seat belt as stipulated by traffic authorities: 1. Penalty for driving on urban expressways: When driving on urban expressways, if the driver fails to wear a seat belt as required, a fine of 50 RMB will be imposed along with a 2-point deduction. 2. Penalty for driving on ordinary roads: When driving on roads other than highways or urban expressways, if the driver fails to wear a seat belt as required, a fine of 50 RMB will be imposed without any points deduction. 3. Penalty for driving on highways: When a vehicle is traveling on a highway, if a passenger fails to wear a seat belt as required, a fine of 20 RMB will be imposed. For vehicles traveling on urban roads with speed limits below 50 km/h, if a passenger fails to wear a seat belt as required but corrects the behavior immediately after being pointed out, a verbal warning will be issued.

What is the mnemonic chart for the lighting test in Subject One?

The mnemonic for the lighting test in Subject One is as follows: Left turn signal: used when turning left, changing lanes to the left, starting, leaving a parking spot, or making a U-turn. Right turn signal: used when turning right, changing lanes to the right, or pulling over to park. Use low beam when driving at night with good street lighting. Use high beam when driving at night without street lighting. Use fog lights and hazard warning lights when driving in foggy conditions. Turn signals must be used whenever changing the vehicle's position, except when entering a roundabout (traffic circle). The C1 driver's license is one of the codes for motor vehicle driving licenses. The permitted driving scope of a C1 license includes small and micro passenger vehicles, as well as light and micro cargo vehicles; light, small, and micro special operation vehicles; and small passenger vehicles with a seating capacity of 9 or fewer people. The minimum age requirement for a C1 driver's license is 18 years old, with no upper age limit. However, applicants aged 70 or older must pass tests on memory, judgment, and reaction abilities.
