Ensure the gear is in the P position, press the brake pedal, shift the gear to D, release the brake pedal, and the car will start moving slowly. If you want to accelerate quickly, simply step on the accelerator pedal. If it is a mechanical key switch, turn the ignition key to the second position, to the power position (ACC), allowing the car's computer system to begin self-checking for at least 6 seconds or more. It is recommended not to ignore the self-check and start directly during a cold start, while a hot start can be initiated directly. Here is additional information: Odyssey Introduction: The new Odyssey is equipped with a 2.4L i-VTEC engine that has been tuned to achieve a 20-horsepower increase, reaching 180 horsepower. The engine torque remains the same as before at 218 Nm, but the RPM required to reach maximum torque has been reduced by 200 RPM, achieving maximum torque at 4300 RPM. The engine is still paired with the same 5AT transmission, but it is puzzling that the new Odyssey has removed the manual shift function present in the older models.

Will Washing the Car Remove the Wax?

Washing the car will not remove the wax. Normally, as long as the wax has hardened, you can wash the car when it gets dirty. Before waxing, the car should be cleaned. The wax typically lasts about a month, and the car won't get dirty easily in a short time. However, it's important not to wash the car too frequently. The benefits of car waxing are: 1. Wax can waterproof and protect against acid rain, reducing the amount of water droplets adhering to the car body due to the wax's protection. 2. Wax can protect against high temperatures and UV rays. Cars driven or stored outdoors for long periods are prone to paint aging and fading due to sunlight. The film formed by waxing reflects some of the light, effectively preventing paint aging. 3. Wax can prevent static electricity and dust. When a car is in motion, friction with the air generates static electricity. Wax can effectively block friction between the car body and air or dust.

How is the early vehicle inspection date calculated?

Early vehicle inspection does not affect the next inspection date. According to relevant regulations, vehicles can undergo annual inspection up to 3 months before the expiration of the current inspection validity period. For example, if a vehicle's inspection validity expires in September, the annual inspection period would be from July 1st to September 31st. Even if the inspection is completed on July 1st, the validity period would still extend to September of the following year, and the next year's inspection period would remain the same, from July 1st to September 31st. Vehicle annual inspection is a mandatory test for all vehicles with official license plates and registration certificates, conducted once a year to ensure the vehicle meets safety technical requirements. Annual inspections help promptly identify and eliminate potential safety hazards, encourage proper vehicle maintenance, and reduce the occurrence of traffic accidents.

What type of engine oil is suitable for Geely Borui 1.8T?

Geely Borui 1.8T uses fully synthetic engine oil. Below are the relevant details about fully synthetic engine oil: 1. Fully synthetic engine oil is a high-grade product among engine oils. 2. Fully synthetic engine oil is derived from ethylene and propylene dispersed from natural gas or gas in crude oil, which are then processed through complex chemical reactions such as polymerization and catalysis to form a lubricating fluid composed of large molecules. 3. Essentially, it utilizes the better components of crude oil, undergoes chemical reactions, and achieves the desired molecular structure under human control. The molecules of fully synthetic oil are neatly arranged, naturally providing strong resistance to external variables. 4. Therefore, it has superior qualities, with much better thermal stability, oxidation resistance, and viscosity change resistance compared to mineral oil and semi-synthetic oil, which is why it is also the most expensive.

What Causes Turbocharger Oil Leaks?

Turbocharger oil leaks are caused by: aging oil seal rings, poor lubrication of the turbocharger, or turbocharger damage. First, inspect the oil seal rings. If the vehicle has been in use for a long time, some components may age. If the oil seal rings are aged, they need to be replaced immediately. The turbocharger also requires lubrication. If the internal components of the turbocharger are not properly lubricated, they can wear out easily. When the internal components are severely worn, oil leaks may occur. In such cases, the severely worn components must be replaced immediately, and lubricating oil should be added promptly. Normally, turbochargers do not fail. However, if the vehicle is involved in an accident while driving, which damages the turbocharger, oil leaks will definitely occur, and the turbocharger must be replaced immediately.

How to siphon gasoline from a car fuel tank?

Methods for siphoning gasoline from a car fuel tank: 1. Drive the vehicle onto a steep slope, then turn off the engine and engage the handbrake. Since the bottom of the fuel tank is U-shaped, it's difficult to drain oil on flat ground; 2. Open the fuel tank and insert a plastic hose; 3. Put the other end of the plastic hose in your mouth and suck hard, being careful not to get gasoline in your mouth; 4. Once you see gasoline coming up, place the end of the hose into a container and let it drain naturally. Precautions for refueling: 1. Don't wait until the fuel warning light comes on to refuel; 2. Choose to refuel in the morning or evening; 3. Avoid filling the tank completely when driving in the city; 4. Don't refuel during thunderstorms.

Operating Steps for Using a Vernier Caliper

The operating steps for using a vernier caliper are as follows: 1. Put on gloves and take out the vernier caliper, wipe the oil off the surface of the ruler with a cloth (to prevent the ruler from rusting), close it, and check whether the zero scale lines of the vernier and the main ruler are aligned. If they are aligned, measurement can be performed; if not, record the zero error. 2. During measurement, hold the ruler body with your right hand, move the vernier with your thumb, hold the object to be measured (external or internal diameter) with your left hand, and place the object between the external measuring jaws. When it fits tightly with the jaws, you can read the measurement (make sure both arms are close to the object). 3. When reading, first use the zero scale line of the vernier as a reference to read the millimeter integer on the ruler body.
