When a wrench appears on the car dashboard, it means the vehicle needs maintenance. It does not indicate any problem with the car. This symbol does not affect normal driving, and it will disappear after the maintenance is completed. Function and purpose: This function is not a standard feature in all cars; it only appears in vehicles equipped with this function. When the car leaves the factory, the manufacturer sets a specific parameter. Once the required mileage is reached, the "small wrench" symbol will appear, reminding the owner that the car needs maintenance. Precautions: If the wrench suddenly appears on the dashboard while driving (with the engine running), it indicates that there might be an issue with the corresponding adjustment system's stored data.

How Often Should Motorcycle Spark Plugs Be Replaced?

Motorcycle spark plugs should be replaced every 15,000 kilometers. Methods to determine if a spark plug is damaged: Remove the spark plug and observe its appearance to assess its condition. A normal spark plug will have a skirt and electrodes that appear gray-white, gray-yellow, or light brown. A properly functioning spark plug will have a skirt that is reddish-brown, with an electrode gap between 0.8-0.9mm and no signs of electrode burn. If the spark plug is covered in oil or deposits but is otherwise undamaged, it can continue to be used after cleaning off the oil and deposits. If the spark plug is severely damaged, showing signs such as blistering at the top, black streaks, cracks, or melted electrodes, the cause of the damage should be identified. After troubleshooting, replace the spark plug with a new one. Additionally, if the spark plug appears black as if smoked, it indicates that the wrong heat range was selected or that the air-fuel mixture is too rich, or that engine oil is leaking into the combustion chamber.

What is the tire specification for the Odyssey?

The tire specification for the Odyssey is 215/60R16, and the Odyssey uses Yokohama's aspec tires from Japan. How to check the production time of vehicle tires: Find a four-digit number on the vehicle tire, which represents the production time of the tire. For example, 0121 means the tire was produced in the first cycle of 2021. The production date of vehicle tires is not calculated by year, month, and day, but by a certain cycle of the year. Tire maintenance methods: Check if there are any cracks on the tire or if any foreign objects are attached to it, and clean them promptly. Inspect the sidewalls of the tires for any scratches, as the sidewalls are relatively weak parts of the tire.
