Michelin tires: 1. Unidirectional tires: Mount the tire on the rim according to the rotation arrow indicated on the tire sidewall. The rotation direction on the tire sidewall should match the vehicle's forward direction. 2. Asymmetric tread tires: When mounting the tire on the rim, ensure the side marked with 'outside' faces outward. If the tire side has white raised letters or a sidewall protection layer, install that side outward. Additional information: According to Michelin's initial design for the 'Follow Me' program, it deliberately highlighted its terminal channels from the start. Consumers who purchase two tires at any Michelin 'Follow Me' authorized retail store can enjoy professional services provided by 'Follow Me,' such as free 24-hour roadside assistance and free puncture repairs.

To be honest, I have an excellent impression of Michelin tires! I've been driving for over a decade and have used many brands, but Michelin gives me a sense of security and comfort. It's a famous French brand specializing in tires, renowned worldwide. The first time I switched to Michelin, I immediately noticed much less tire noise, especially on long highway drives—smooth and fatigue-free. On wet and slippery roads, their tread design prevents hydroplaning and provides much better grip. Michelin also keeps introducing new series, like the Pilot Sport line that enhances handling performance, suitable for both city commuting and road trips. Durability is also outstanding—my last set lasted nearly 150,000 kilometers before needing replacement, saving me a lot of hassle. Overall, Michelin tires represent reliability, safety, and comfort, making them a trustworthy choice for daily driving. I always prioritize them when changing tires, and they even help with fuel efficiency, slightly reducing fuel consumption.

Why are red and blue trains no longer in use?

Cancellation of red and blue trains is due to the railway department's standardization of passenger train exterior colors. Below are specific details regarding passenger train exterior colors: 1. Regulation: To promote the standardization and simplification of railway locomotives and vehicles, the railway department gradually initiated the standardization of conventional-speed passenger trains starting from 2013, with the unification of exterior colors being part of this effort. 2. Unified color scheme: The conventional-speed passenger trains used by the railway department had five exterior colors: green, red, blue, white, and orange. Considering that green conveys a simple, dignified, and environmentally friendly visual effect, the railway department decided to adopt dark green as the unified color for conventional-speed passenger trains. After standardization, Chinese railway passenger trains will have two colors: dark green for conventional-speed trains and white for electric multiple units (EMUs).

What is the fuel consumption of the 2013 508?

The fuel consumption of the 2013 508 is 10.99L/100KM. Here are specific methods to reduce fuel consumption: 1. Lightly press the accelerator: The car consumes the most fuel during low-speed starts, so gently pressing the accelerator when starting can prevent excessively high RPMs and effectively reduce fuel consumption. 2. Avoid high RPMs: Try to avoid unnecessary high RPMs, as fluctuating engine speeds can significantly increase fuel consumption. 3. Regular maintenance: Change the engine oil and remove carbon deposits. 4. Avoid sudden braking: Anticipating road conditions in advance not only improves driving safety but also saves fuel, such as gradually slowing down before traffic lights and utilizing inertia to glide.

What Does Brake Shoe Wear Mean?

It means the brake shoe has reached the wear limit warning and needs replacement, otherwise it may lead to brake failure. Below are relevant details: 1. Composition: Brake shoes generally consist of two parts - the iron backing plate and the friction material. Never wait until the friction material is completely worn out before replacing the shoes. For front brake shoes, the new pad thickness is 14mm, and the replacement limit thickness is 7mm, which includes over 3mm of iron backing plate thickness and nearly 4mm of friction material thickness. 2. Warning function: Some vehicles are equipped with brake shoe wear warning systems. Once the wear limit is reached, the dashboard will alert you to replace the shoes. Shoes that have reached their service limit must be replaced immediately, as continuing to use them even for a short period will reduce braking effectiveness and compromise driving safety.

Is it normal for only one rear fog light to be on?

It is normal for only one rear fog light to be on. Here are the specific details about car fog lights: 1. Usage scenarios: The most common scenario for using fog lights is in foggy conditions. Additionally, they are used in other severe weather conditions such as snow or rain, or when driving in environments filled with smoke. To ensure driving safety, front fog lights must be used for illumination, while rear fog lights should be used as needed. 2. Precautions: Front and rear fog lights should not be used unless necessary, as fog lights lack a glare shield. The dazzling light can affect drivers of oncoming or following vehicles, potentially compromising driving safety.
