When encountering heavy rain, functions such as auto start-stop and auto hold should be turned off. Here are some tips for driving in heavy rain: 1. Proper use of lights: Whether it's day or night, always turn on the low beam and position lights when driving in rain or fog. If the rain is too heavy or visibility is poor due to thick fog, turn on the fog lights. Hazard lights should only be used when parking or during emergency braking to alert vehicles behind. They should not be turned on randomly during normal driving, as this can make it difficult for vehicles behind with poor visibility to discern the lane-changing intentions of the vehicle ahead or to spot vehicles stopped on the road due to various reasons in bad weather. 2. Low speed and high RPM when passing through waterlogged areas: If you need to pass through a waterlogged area, drive in a low gear at a slow speed, maintaining steady throttle. Avoid stopping, shifting gears, or making sharp turns midway. Even if you use neutral gear, keep revving the engine to ensure the exhaust pressure is higher than the water pressure, preventing water from flowing back into the exhaust pipe and damaging the exhaust system. If the water depth exceeds the center of the wheel or the exhaust pipe, it's best not to proceed to avoid engine stalling during passage.

Why does the Wuling Rongguang lose power while driving?

If the Wuling Rongguang loses power while driving, the fuel system should be checked, especially the fuel pump. It could be due to poor-quality fuel or a dirty fuel tank. Here is some information about the Wuling Rongguang: 1. Dimensions: The Wuling Rongguang measures 4 meters in length, 1620mm in width, and 1915mm in height. Compared to traditional microvans (under 3.8 meters), it is larger in all dimensions, providing more space for passengers and cargo. 2. Features: The most notable feature of the Wuling Rongguang is its size, which is also the core value of the product. Unlike traditional microvans that are simply elongated, the Wuling Rongguang's "largeness" is comprehensive and well-deserved. 3. Powertrain: The Wuling Rongguang is equipped with a new-generation small-displacement (1.2L) high-power B-series engine, boasting an outstanding power-to-displacement ratio of 52.2KW/L.

In which year does a vehicle start requiring annual inspections?

For non-commercial private vehicles, within the first ten years, inspections are required every two years for the first six years, and then every two years with on-site inspections for the remaining four years. Passenger vehicles for commercial use require annual inspections, and those over five years old require biannual inspections. Freight vehicles require annual inspections. 1. New vehicle inspection methods: There are two methods. The first method is to handle the inspection through the mobile app "Traffic Management 12123." The second method is to conduct the inspection at the vehicle management office or the traffic management department of the public security authority. It is important to note that vehicles exempt from on-site inspections still require annual inspection procedures; they just do not need to undergo on-site inspection formalities. However, annual inspection procedures must be completed to legally drive the vehicle. 2. Consequences of not undergoing inspections: If a vehicle fails to complete the annual inspection procedures for three consecutive inspection cycles, it will be forcibly scrapped. An inspection cycle is not necessarily one year; it could be two years, one year, or six months, depending on the nature of the vehicle's use.

What does wcvt mean?

Gear Direct Drive Transmission (CVT Transmission). The following is an introduction to CVT transmission: 1. Introduction: CVT refers to a type of automotive transmission, also known as a continuously variable transmission. The difference between CVT and stepped transmissions is that its gear ratio is not intermittent points but a series of continuous values, achieving good economy, power, and driving smoothness, while also reducing emissions and costs. 2. Advantages and Disadvantages: Smoothness: Since there are no transmission gears like those in a conventional automatic transmission, there is no gear-shifting process, and the resulting shift shock is eliminated. Therefore, the power output of a CVT transmission is linear, making it very smooth in actual driving. Free Gear Setting: The transmission system of a CVT theoretically allows for an unlimited number of gears, making gear setting more flexible. It is easier to achieve the balance between gear ratio, speed ratio, performance, fuel consumption, and exhaust emissions compared to traditional transmission systems. Good Performance: The mechanical efficiency and fuel economy of CVT transmissions are significantly better than those of conventional automatic transmissions, second only to manual transmissions, with much better fuel economy.

Is the validity period of a learner's driving license three years and six months?

The validity period of a learner's driving license is not three years and six months. The validity period for obtaining a driver's license is three years, starting from the date of passing the subject one exam. The remaining subjects must be completed within three years. Handling of exceeding the three-year validity period: The file will be canceled, and all driving learning records will be cleared. Therefore, the driving school will require re-registration. If you need an instructor, you will also have to pay the training fee. If you haven't even taken the subject one exam, then there is no issue of exceeding the validity period. In this case, you need to check whether the contract signed with the driving school stipulates a time limit. Generally, driving schools will require students who exceed the time limit to pay an extension fee to avoid long-term occupation of slots. Methods to check the remaining duration of the driving test: The learning driving certificate will display the start and end dates of the validity period. On the comprehensive traffic safety service management platform, select "Print Learning Driving Certificate" to print or save it locally. When using the Traffic Management 12123 app to schedule an exam, select the exam venue's identifier. If it is not displayed, click the fold button to expand it.
