The S gear in Civic, namely the Sport mode, can be switched to when overtaking or pursuing sporty driving. At this time, the car's power output is more sufficient, and the acceleration will be faster. The L gear is the Low gear, which can be used when going uphill or downhill. The lower gear provides more power when going uphill and can assist in braking when going downhill. Some cars may not have the M gear, which stands for Manual mode. When switching to this gear, it is equivalent to driving a manual transmission, requiring the driver to shift gears up or down manually, providing a more engaging driving experience for those who enjoy manual transmissions. Below is an introduction to automatic transmission: 1. Automatic transmissions have four basic gears, namely P gear, R gear, N gear, and D gear. P gear is the Parking gear, R gear is the Reverse gear, N gear is the Neutral gear, and D gear is the Drive gear. These gears represent the most basic functions of a car: moving forward, reversing, parking, and neutral. Like manual transmissions, these are the basic gears that enable the car to move and park. 2. When engaging the P gear, ensure the car has come to a complete stop and will not move forward or backward further. N gear means Neutral. At this time, although the car's engine is still running, the transmission basically stops working, and there is no power output. It can be used for brief stops.

What Causes Brake Pedal Vibration When Braking?

Brake pedal vibration during braking can be attributed to the following reasons: 1. Uneven tread wear on both sides of the tires or differing tire pressures can lead to brake pedal vibration. 2. Deformation of the brake disc can also cause vibration, especially during sudden braking; in such cases, it is generally recommended to replace the brake disc. 3. If the ABS warning light flickers during low-speed braking, check whether the ABS sensor is malfunctioning. 4. When you feel a pulsating sensation in the brake pedal accompanied by a "grinding" noise during high-speed braking, this indicates the ABS pump is functioning normally. 5. Additionally, check if resonance caused by loose underbody guard plate screws is the culprit.
