When the "parking assist system malfunction" appears, it means the radar control box or its control circuit is broken. The parking assist system includes ultrasonic sensors embedded in the front and rear bumpers, with each sensor having a diameter of about 15mm. The ultrasonic detection signals emitted by the sensors will reflect when encountering obstacles. After the sensors receive the reflected signals, they will promptly feed them back to the system for distance calculation, and remind the driver of the distance between the vehicle and obstacles outside the field of vision through sound, video, and other means. Additional information: The following are the main functions of the reversing radar: 1. Accurately measure the distance between the rear of the car and the nearest obstacle. 2. When reversing to the limit distance, it can emit a rapid warning sound to remind the driver to pay attention to braking. 3. It can repeatedly emit a voice warning sound to remind pedestrians to pay attention.

What are the material components of car tires?

The material components of car tires are rubber and carbon black. Since the main component of most car tire materials is natural rubber or synthetic rubber, carbon black must be blended into the rubber to enhance the rubber's hardness, strength, and wear resistance, which are required for tire manufacturing. Tire classifications are as follows: 1. By vehicle type: They can be roughly divided into 8 types. Namely: PC - Passenger car tires; LT - Light truck tires; TB - Truck and bus tires; AG - Agricultural vehicle tires; OTR - Off-the-road tires; ID - Industrial vehicle tires; AC - Aircraft tires; MC - Motorcycle tires. 2. By size: (1) Full-size spare tire: The specifications of a full-size spare tire are exactly the same as the other 4 tires on the vehicle, and it can replace any tire that is temporarily or permanently unusable. (2) Compact spare tire: The diameter and width of this type of spare tire are slightly smaller than the other 4 tires, so it can only be used as a temporary replacement and must be used on non-driving wheels, with a maximum speed not exceeding 80km/h.

What is the difference between front fog lights and low beam headlights?

The differences between front fog lights and low beam headlights are: 1. Different usage environments: (1) Fog lights: Must be used in weather conditions with visibility below 200 meters. (2) Low beam headlights: Must be turned on when driving in areas without streetlights at night, during dusk when it's dark, or at dawn; if encountering heavy fog, snow, or heavy rain that obstructs visibility, they must also be turned on even during the day; in some areas where lighting is insufficient, low beam headlights should also be used. 2. Different functions: (1) Fog lights: Serve to warn and penetrate through fog. (2) Low beam headlights: Provide close-range illumination. 3. Different characteristics: (1) Fog lights: Have higher luminous intensity than taillights, with high brightness and strong penetration, avoiding diffuse reflection caused by fog. (2) Low beam headlights: Have a wide illumination range (160°), short illumination distance, non-adjustable focus, and a very distinct cutoff line between light and dark.

Does Waxing Car Interiors Accelerate Aging?

Waxing car interiors does not accelerate the aging process. Generally, car interiors require waxing once a month with a dashboard wax, and the type of wax should be selected based on the material and location to ensure proper maintenance. When exposed to intense sunlight, the plastic and leather components inside the car continuously release harmful substances like formaldehyde during the aging process. The benefit of waxing the interior is that it can slow down the aging of plastic and leather materials. Below is an introduction to car waxing: 1. Functions of car wax: Waterproofing, protection against acid rain, high temperatures, and UV rays, anti-static, and dust resistance. 2. Choosing the right car wax: Consider factors such as the wax's functional characteristics, the vehicle's age, paint color, and driving environment. For new cars, it is best to use a colored polish wax to protect the body's gloss and color. In general, during summer, it is advisable to choose a UV-resistant car wax, while in poor driving conditions, a wax with excellent oil and dust resistance should be selected.

Is the Tharu 330 4WD full-time or on-demand?

The Tharu 330 4WD is a full-time four-wheel drive system. Below are the differences between on-demand 4WD and full-time 4WD: 1. Structural Differences: On-demand 4WD: Simple structure, more suitable for front-wheel-drive platform vehicles with transverse-mounted engines. Full-time 4WD: Complex structure, not suitable for front-wheel-drive platform vehicles with transverse-mounted engines. 2. Different Adjustment Ranges in Safety Control: On-demand 4WD: Cannot transfer more than 50% of the power to the rear axle, with a limited adjustment range in safety control. Full-time 4WD: Transfers more power to the rear axle, offering a wider adjustment range in safety control. 3. Off-road Capability Differences: On-demand 4WD: Uses a simpler viscous coupling center differential, which is less costly and more fuel-efficient. However, its off-road capability is inferior, and it lacks in handling and high-speed stability. Full-time 4WD: Responds faster than on-demand 4WD, thus offering better off-road capability, superior handling, and enhanced high-speed stability.

What are the regulations for vehicle annual inspections?

Vehicle annual inspection regulations are divided into two parts: the exemption scope and the inspection cycle. Below are the detailed explanations of the vehicle annual inspection regulations: Exemption Scope: The exemption scope for motor vehicles has been expanded from the original 6 years and under for vehicles with 6 seats or fewer to include non-operational small and mini passenger vehicles with 7-9 seats. This means that after November 20th, non-operational small and mini passenger vehicles under 6 years old with 7-9 seats can enjoy the exemption policy. Inspection Cycle: Exempted vehicles can avoid on-site inspections for the first 6 years, only requiring formalities every two years. From 6-10 years, inspections are required annually. The new regulations indicate that the inspection cycle for private vehicles remains unchanged for the first 6 years, while for vehicles aged 6-10 years, the inspection frequency changes from annual to biennial. This means exempted vehicles will have biennial inspections within 10 years, with on-site inspections required only in the 6th and 8th years.
