Taking over the car midway means that during the driving test, the previous examinee completes their test and exits the vehicle, and the next examinee immediately moves from the back seat to the driver's seat to continue the test. Although it is referred to as continuing the test, the examinee must still follow the instructions of the examiner or the electronic system, just like in a regular Category 3 driving test. However, the order of the test items might be rearranged. Below are some tips for the Category 3 driving test: Follow the instructions: Listen carefully to the voice prompts during the Category 3 test and act accordingly. Remember not to perform any actions before the voice prompt ends; wait until it finishes before proceeding to the next step. Pay attention to special zones: In many regions, the voice prompts no longer remind examinees of special zones such as school areas, bus stops, and crosswalks. However, examinees must still perform corresponding deceleration or yielding actions based on the roadside signs and road markings. For school zones, apply the brakes within 10 meters of the sign, keeping the speed below 30 km/h. For bus stops, apply the brakes within 10 meters of the sign, keeping the speed below 30 km/h. For crosswalks, decelerate by applying the brakes within 30 meters before the crosswalk, and stop to yield if pedestrians are crossing.

How to Troubleshoot Automatic Transmission Failures?

Automatic transmission failure troubleshooting methods are as follows: 1. Computer diagnostics to replace damaged electronic components; 2. Repair damaged mechanical components; 3. Inspect the engine and ABS to repair damaged parts; 4. Analyze each possible cause of the phenomenon, including high engine coolant temperature, transmission clutch slippage, insufficient cooling, and clogged vehicle cooling and grille systems. Additional information: The function of the transmission is to change the gear ratio to meet the traction needs under different driving conditions; enable reverse driving; and interrupt power transmission to the drive wheels when the engine starts, idles, the vehicle shifts gears, or needs to stop for power output.

What license plate is required for plug-in hybrid vehicles?

Plug-in hybrid vehicles are issued green new energy license plates. Below is some information about plug-in hybrid vehicles: 1. Compared to conventional hybrid vehicles, plug-in hybrids have an additional charging port that allows for external charging. 2. The internal design and technical requirements are relatively lower, but the battery capacity is larger, providing a longer pure electric driving range. 3. This type of vehicle is currently highly recommended in China, as it qualifies for substantial subsidies and is exempt from traffic restrictions and license plate limitations. The advantages include fuel efficiency, even more so than conventional hybrids, but the drawback is the need for frequent charging and higher fuel consumption when running solely on gasoline.

Is It Good to Frequently Switch Between N and D Gears in Traffic Jams?

It is not recommended to frequently switch between D and N gears during traffic jams. Although doing so won't cause any issues to the transmission, constantly shifting gears in stop-and-go traffic is quite troublesome. For short stops or when the traffic ahead is moving slowly, it is advisable to simply press the brake while in D gear. When you need to move forward, just release the brake. More details are as follows: 1. Benefits of pressing the brake in D gear: This approach has the advantage of allowing you to closely follow the vehicle in front. If you switch from N to D gear, it takes some time for the idle speed to pick up. Therefore, even if you release the brake, the car will remain stationary for a while before moving forward. This delay can allow other vehicles to cut in front of you, which is why experienced drivers avoid frequent D and N gear shifts in traffic jams. 2. Switching to N gear during prolonged stops: Additionally, if the traffic is completely stopped or you are waiting for an extended period, you can switch to N gear. This is because even when the car is stationary, the idle speed remains active, keeping related components running. Failing to switch to N gear in time can easily lead to an increase in transmission oil temperature and deterioration of the oil, especially when the air conditioning system is running and the engine idle speed is high, which can be more detrimental.

Does a Car Pulling to One Side Require a Wheel Alignment?

A car pulling to one side requires a wheel alignment. The following situations necessitate a wheel alignment: 1. Damage to the chassis and suspension caused by an accident; replacement of the steering system and components; 2. Uneven wear on one side of the front or rear tires; replacement or adjustment of the suspension system. Below is some information about wheel alignment: 1. Wheel alignment involves adjusting the geometric angles of the tires, steering, and suspension components to ensure tight contact between the tires and the ground. 2. Wheel alignment equipment is relatively complex to operate, requiring manufacturers to provide high-quality operational training services; for users who are not very familiar with the car chassis, manufacturers must also have the ability to troubleshoot alignment issues.

What are the causes and solutions for unstable idle speed?

Here are the main solutions for unstable idle speed in cars: 1. Clean carbon deposits from the engine and idle speed control valve. 2. Clean the fuel system. 3. Replace spark plugs, high-voltage wires, and ignition coils. 4. Clean the air filter and throttle body. 5. Replace aging engine components. Here are the main causes of unstable idle speed: 1. Carbon deposit issues: Severe engine carbon buildup causing blockages. Dirty throttle body or carbon deposits in fuel injectors leading to clogging. 2. Spark plug failure: Malfunctioning spark plugs, high-voltage wires, or ignition coils resulting in poor ignition system performance. 3. Unstable fuel pressure: Insufficient fuel pump pressure or incorrect readings from the intake pressure sensor. 4. Fuel system blockage: Blocked fuel lines causing insufficient fuel supply, leading to unstable idle speed. 5. Component aging: Aging engine parts causing unstable idle speed.

What letter represents neutral in an automatic transmission?

Automatic transmission neutral is represented by the letter N. More details about the gears are as follows: 1. P: Parking gear, starting gear. The wheels are mechanically locked to prevent rolling. 2. R: Reverse gear, used for reversing. 3. N: Neutral gear, used for temporary parking. 4. D: Drive gear, forward gear. The transmission automatically shifts between gears 1-5 based on speed and throttle conditions. 5. S: Sport mode. In this gear, the transmission can switch freely between gears, but it increases fuel consumption. 6. L: Low gear. The transmission stays in gear 1 without shifting up, providing some braking function when going downhill, suitable for climbing slopes or slippery roads.
