Parking gear is the P gear of an automatic transmission, used when parking to lock the transmission gears. It refers to automatic transmission vehicles, which have forward gears (D gear), reverse gear (R), neutral gear (N), and the parking gear (P), which is equivalent to the neutral gear plus handbrake in a manual transmission. Below is some extended information about automatic parking: 1. When encountering situations like traffic lights that require a short stop, the system automatically brakes the wheels after the vehicle comes to a complete stop to prevent rolling. 2. During uphill starts, the system automatically applies the brakes to prevent rolling backward, and releases the wheels automatically once the vehicle starts moving forward. 3. When parking and locking the vehicle, there is no need to pull the handbrake, as the system automatically brakes the wheels at this time.

How to Maintain Your Car in Winter?

Winter car maintenance methods are introduced as follows: 1. Wiper Blades and Windshield: Due to weather conditions, wiper blades often freeze to the windshield in winter. Do not force them off; instead, turn on the car's air conditioning, set it to blow air towards the windshield to raise its temperature. This also helps check if the heating system is functioning properly. Regularly clean the heating system to ensure good air quality inside the car. 2. Body and Chassis: The car's exterior inevitably gets damaged while driving, or even when parked. In winter, with rain and snow, the car's exterior is prone to corrosion. Roads are often salted to quickly melt snow, and the tires can splash saltwater onto the chassis, causing rust. Therefore, before winter arrives, thoroughly inspect the car's body, promptly repair any scratches, and apply wax in early winter to protect the paint. A waxed body is less likely to get damp, and ice formation on the car's surface will be significantly reduced. Also, perform rust-proof maintenance on the vehicle's chassis to extend its lifespan.

What Are the Reasons for the ETC Barrier Not Lifting When Entering the Highway?

Reasons for the ETC barrier not lifting when entering the highway include detachment or removal of the ETC device; ETC device malfunction; lane malfunction; pass card malfunction; or being blacklisted. In such cases, it is necessary to promptly contact on-site staff for assistance. How ETC Works: Through dedicated short-range communication between the onboard electronic tag installed on the vehicle's windshield and the microwave antenna in the ETC lane at the toll station, computer networking technology is used to perform backend settlement processing with the bank. This allows vehicles to pass through highway or bridge toll stations without stopping while still paying the toll. ETC Usage Notes: The ETC transaction sensing range is 8 meters. When encountering a vehicle in front that has stopped, to prevent the front vehicle's ETC device from malfunctioning or not having an ETC device at all, maintain a distance of more than 10 meters to avoid automatic sensing and payment for the front vehicle. The ETC lane recognition speed is 20 km/h. If the vehicle speed is too fast, the vehicle device information cannot be read, which will also result in payment failure. Unauthorized removal or movement of the OBU device, detachment or loosening of the ETC electronic tag, etc., will cause the electronic tag to fail. It can be sent to the bank where the ETC card was issued or the highway service office for testing. Non-deliberate loosening or detachment only requires reactivation. When using a debit card linked to ETC, insufficient balance will also cause payment failure. Follow the guidance of on-site staff to use the manual MTC lane and pass by cash or card. Excessive thickness of the car windshield can cause poor sensing. This is especially important for vehicles that have had their windshields replaced after an accident or for those who have modified their front windshields.

Do You Need to Replace Coolant in Hot Weather?

Hot weather does not necessitate coolant replacement, as coolant change is not related to weather conditions. For vehicles that operate for extended periods, such as taxis, high-quality coolant should generally be replaced annually. Vehicles with shorter operating hours can have their coolant replaced every two years or every 30,000 kilometers. How to Replace Coolant: Before completely replacing the coolant, conduct a thorough inspection to check for any signs of leaks or cracks in the pipelines, with a particular focus on the five-way hose. Coolant flows through the five-way hose and is then distributed to different parts of the car to function. If there are any signs of coolant leakage in this area, replace the hose or resecure the connection as needed. Drain the old coolant and then flush the fluid channels with clean water. Add clean water to the coolant reservoir and continue to fill it until water flows continuously through the engine cooling system. Then, start the engine and let it idle for 3 to 5 minutes to circulate the water. Initially, the water draining from the reservoir will have a faint pink tint. Continue adding clean water until the drained water runs clear. Note: Remember to remove the heater hose and drain all water from the heater core. Approximately one hour after draining, add new coolant through the radiator hose. Then, pour another container of coolant into the coolant reservoir until it is nearly full. Start the engine and let it run for about 10 minutes. As the cooling system expels some air, the coolant level will drop slightly. Top up the coolant until it reaches the "MAXT" mark on the reservoir.

Why Are Used BMW X6 Cars So Cheap?

The price of a used BMW X6 is influenced by the vehicle's condition. The age of the vehicle and the extent of wear and tear will both lower the price. Things to consider when buying a used car: 1. Check the paperwork: If the used car's paperwork is incomplete, it may prevent the car from being legally transferred. When reviewing the paperwork, check how long the compulsory traffic insurance and commercial insurance are still valid. 2. Inspect the vehicle's condition: When inspecting the vehicle's condition, it's acceptable as long as the car hasn't been involved in any major accidents. The car body consists of the frame and the body panels. The panels include the front and rear bumpers, front fenders, doors, hood, and trunk lid. The roof and rear fenders are part of the frame. If an accident only damaged the body panels, the car is not considered a salvage vehicle. However, if the accident damaged the frame, the car is classified as a salvage vehicle.
