PAS refers to Porsche's Active Safety system. When PAS shows as restricted, active braking disappears and automatic light control disappears, because they both rely on the camera above the front windshield. When the camera's detection range deviates to a certain extent, PAS will show as restricted. Of course, sometimes it could also be due to dirt near the camera. The main functions of the reverse radar system are: 1. Measuring distance: accurately measuring the distance between the rear of the car and the nearest obstacle; 2. Braking: when reversing to the limit distance, it can emit an urgent warning sound to remind the driver to brake; 3. Reminder: it can repeatedly emit a voice warning sound to remind pedestrians to pay attention.

I drove a Porsche for many years, and PAS limitation refers to the temporary malfunction of the ParkAssist system, which is supposed to automatically detect obstacles when you're reversing or parking, but now the function is locked. Common causes could be the sensors on the car being covered by mud or snow, or a minor software glitch. This makes parking more challenging, especially in unfamiliar parking lots. For safety, you need to be more vigilant about your surroundings and reverse slowly without rushing. Actually, such minor issues aren't a big deal. I usually try cleaning the sensors or restarting the system first. If that doesn't work, I take it to the shop for a check-up to avoid long-term issues affecting the driving pleasure.

What Causes the Wiper to Make Noise?

The reasons for wiper noise: 1. Aging or deformation of the wiper blade itself; 2. Fine streaks, fog, or linear residues on the glass; 3. Deformation of the wiper arm. The wiper, also known as the windshield wiper, is a device used to remove raindrops and dust attached to the vehicle's windshield, improving the driver's visibility and enhancing driving safety. The wiper control system achieves delay control of the wiper through an electronic control system, which includes a dual-speed motor and a limit switch. The following functions can be achieved through the handle switch: washing, wiping, high-speed wiping, low-speed wiping, intermittent wiping, and delay control.

What Type of Transmission Fluid Should Be Used?

For regular lanes, gear oil (GL-3) is suitable for spiral bevel gear final drives, transmissions, and steering gears operating under mild conditions. Below is extended information about transmission fluid: 1. Introduction: Transmission fluid is an oil product that keeps the gear system clean, ensuring normal operation of the transmission and extending the lifespan of the transmission components. 2. Characteristics: Most transmission fluids on the market can be used in automatic transmissions. However, each automatic transmission design has unique technical requirements. Even the same model of transmission configured in different vehicle models may vary in torque, weight, speed, and structure. Therefore, original manufacturers specify their own dedicated transmission fluid. Different transmission fluids are one of the factors affecting shift quality.

Is it necessary to install a 360-degree panoramic camera?

It is not necessary to install a 360-degree panoramic camera. Installing a 360-degree panoramic camera is a form of invasive modification. The specific damages are as follows: 1. Drilling holes in the rearview mirrors: Since two cameras in the 360-degree panoramic system need to be installed under the rearview mirrors, it is necessary to drill two mounting holes in the mirrors. 2. Dismantling a large number of vehicle components: Installing a 360-degree panoramic camera requires removing many vehicle parts, such as the rearview mirrors, door panels, center console panels, and in some cases, even the doors. 3. Safety hazards: If the product quality is substandard or the wiring is improperly arranged, it can easily pose safety risks, including the potential for spontaneous combustion.

What are the symptoms of a car alternator not generating electricity?

The symptoms of a car alternator not generating electricity include: 1. Dimming of headlights or dashboard lights; 2. Damage to the battery or accumulator; 3. The belt does not rotate freely, and excessive friction causes the belt to heat up, producing a burning rubber smell. The reasons for a car alternator not generating electricity are: 1. The alternator is not operating under the specified technical conditions; 2. The three-phase load current of the alternator is unbalanced; 3. The air duct is blocked by accumulated dust, resulting in poor ventilation and difficulty in cooling the alternator. The car alternator is the main power source of the vehicle, and its function is: when the engine is running normally, it supplies power to all electrical equipment except the starter and simultaneously charges the battery.
