MT manual transmission The full English name of MT is manual-transmission. The Chinese meaning is manual transmission, also known as manual gearbox. It requires manually shifting the gear lever to change the gear engagement position inside the transmission, altering the gear ratio to complete the shifting. Below is an introduction to the five major types of transmissions: 1. MT manual transmission The full English name of MT is manual-transmission. The Chinese meaning is manual transmission, also known as manual gearbox. 2. AT automatic transmission The full English name of AT is automatic-transmission. The automatic transmission consists of a torque converter, planetary gears, and a hydraulic control system, achieving gear ratio changes through hydraulic power transmission and gear combinations. 3. AMT automated manual transmission The full English name of AMT is automated-mechanical-transmission. The Chinese meaning is automated manual transmission. AMT can be considered as an automatic manual transmission. The AMT transmission is equipped with an electronically controlled hydraulic system on a conventional manual transmission and clutch to achieve automatic gear shifting. 4. DCT dual-clutch transmission The full English name of DCT is double-clutch-transmission. The Chinese meaning is dual-clutch transmission. 5. CVT continuously variable transmission The full English name of CVT is Continuous-Variable-Transmission, and the Chinese meaning is "continuously variable transmission".

MT stands for Manual Transmission, which requires the driver to manually control gear shifting. I find driving this type of car particularly exciting, especially at high speeds where you can directly feel the engine's RPM changes. Manual shifting gives a greater sense of involvement in driving. Compared to automatic transmissions, manual transmissions are usually more fuel-efficient because drivers can freely adjust gears to match speed and road conditions. However, in congested city traffic, frequent clutch pressing and gear shifting can be tiring. After driving manual cars for over a decade, I've found they significantly help improve driving skills, making it easier for beginners to learn. For daily use, manual transmissions are more economical, but automatics are more convenient. Remember to regularly check the clutch plates to avoid wear affecting smooth gear shifts.

Where is the one-key start button for Audi Q5?

Audi Q5's one-key start button is located near the steering wheel, in front of the handbrake on the center console, and it is a silver button. The Audi Q5 can be started not only with the one-key start device but also with the key by inserting it into the key slot near the steering wheel. The one-key start differs from the traditional mechanical key ignition method and the conventional starting procedure; simply press the one-key start button lightly to start or turn off the engine. The Audi Q5 is a versatile SUV that perfectly combines the body design of a sports car, efficient power, and sensitive handling. The dimensions of this car are 4629mm in length, 1898mm in width, 1655mm in height, with a wheelbase of 2897mm.

What is the wading depth of the Sagitar?

The maximum wading depth of the Sagitar is 310mm. The wading depth of the Sagitar is determined by the height of the vehicle's chassis, which is the ground clearance listed in the vehicle's parameter configuration table. Generally, the greater the ground clearance, the higher the chassis, and the higher the safety factor when passing through waterlogged roads. Therefore, in terms of safe wading depth, the advantages of off-road vehicles and SUVs are obvious. However, for most compact and small cars with low chassis, the position of the vehicle's air intake should be used as a benchmark when passing through waterlogged roads. If the air intake of the Sagitar is below the water level during wading, water will be sucked into the engine's cylinders. Since water cannot be compressed like air, it can cause severe damage to the engine's mechanical components (such as connecting rods, pistons, crankshafts, etc.). Therefore, the wading depth should not exceed the height of the engine's air intake. The height of the engine's air intake, and thus the maximum wading depth, can also be increased by installing a snorkel. If wading is unavoidable, the following safe and correct operations should be performed: Before the vehicle enters the water, the auto start-stop function must be turned off to prevent the engine from automatically restarting after stalling in the water, which could cause severe damage due to water ingestion; Assess the underwater road conditions based on the passage of preceding vehicles and choose an appropriate entry point. Observe the path taken by other vehicles and follow their tracks at low speed, avoiding sudden acceleration or deceleration; On roads prone to waterlogging, observe warning water level markers, trees, or other vehicles' wheels and doors as reference points to estimate the water depth before deciding whether to proceed; Be aware of your vehicle's safe wading depth. If the water depth exceeds half the tire height or the engine's air intake, do not proceed and choose an alternative route instead.

What does the 'A' button next to the electronic handbrake mean?

Electronic handbrake next to the A button is the automatic parking system. After turning on this switch, when the vehicle is braked to a stop during driving, even if the brake is released, the vehicle will not continue to move. It will only resume driving when the accelerator is pressed. If you want to turn it off, you have to manually switch it off. The automatic parking system is a technical application that can achieve automatic handbrake function while the car is running. This technology allows drivers to avoid prolonged braking when the vehicle stops, and prevents unnecessary sliding when the automatic electronic parking brake is activated. The working principle of the automatic parking system lies in the brake management system's control of the four-wheel brakes through the extended function of the electronic handbrake.

What does DS mean in an automatic transmission?

Automatic transmission DS meaning: The D gear is the drive gear. When the gearshift lever is moved to this position, the transmission automatically shifts up and down within the engine speed range, with the shift point determined by engine load, the driver's driving style, and vehicle speed. The S gear is the sport mode of the D gear, providing more powerful power output. In this mode, the transmission can shift freely, but the shifting is delayed. Automatic transmission gears are generally represented by the letters P, R, N, D, S, and L, which stand for Park, Reverse, Neutral, Drive, Sport mode, and Low gear, respectively. The R gear is the reverse gear, used for driving the vehicle backward; the P gear is engaged after parking to prevent the vehicle from rolling backward; the N gear is the neutral gear, often used in conjunction with the handbrake when waiting at traffic lights; the L gear is the low gear, which can be engaged when going downhill.

Should I still press the brake when shifting to N gear at a red light with an automatic transmission?

When shifting to N gear at a red light with an automatic transmission, you should press the brake if you're worried about the car rolling. For longer red lights, it's advisable to shift to N gear and engage the handbrake without pressing the brake pedal. If the red light wait is less than 30 seconds, you can stay in D gear without shifting, just press the brake, and release it to accelerate when the light turns green. There's no wrong choice between shifting to N or D gear for temporary stops; it depends on personal preference. Temporarily stopping in D gear with the brake pressed won't harm the car because the torque converter in the transmission is equipped with a reaction wheel that includes a one-way clutch, designed to amplify the torque from the engine crankshaft. It remains stationary at idle and only engages when the engine speed increases.
