CVT and AMT have the following differences: 1. Different transmission methods: (1) CVT is a continuously variable transmission, which uses two sets of pulleys for speed change transmission. (2) AMT is a mechanical automatic transmission, which adds a microcomputer-controlled automatic shifting system on the basis of a manual transmission. 2. Different advantages: (1) The power output of a CVT transmission is linear, providing a very smooth driving experience. The mechanical efficiency and fuel economy of CVT transmissions are significantly better than those of conventional automatic transmissions, second only to manual transmissions, offering much better fuel efficiency. (2) AMT combines the advantages of hydraulic automatic transmissions with the high efficiency, low cost, simple structure, and ease of manufacturing of the original manual transmission gear drive.

What are the reasons why the Honda Jade cannot start?

There are many reasons why the Honda Jade cannot start, and it is recommended to troubleshoot the problem in time. The following is a specific analysis of the reasons why the car cannot start: 1. Battery depletion: The voltage during startup is lower than the minimum voltage required for the computer to work, causing the engine computer to not function and the car to fail to start. In this case, the battery should be charged or replaced. 2. Spark plug failure: The spark plug itself is easily damaged, or high-voltage circuit short circuits may cause the spark plug to fail to ignite. Another reason is the use of low-quality spark plugs, which can also lead to failure to start normally. It is recommended to replace the spark plugs in this case. 3. Starting circuit failure: During startup, there is only a slight "click" sound with no further response, which is caused by the starting relay sticking. In this case, simply press the tail of the electromagnet to force the electromagnet to move forward, thereby connecting the starting circuit and allowing the engine to start. 4. Use of inferior engine oil: During cold starts, factors such as cylinder pressure, engine speed, and temperature make it difficult for inferior engine oil to ignite, resulting in failure to start. It is recommended to use the engine oil recommended by the manufacturer or high-quality full synthetic engine oil.

What is the difference between fully synthetic oil and semi-synthetic oil?

Fully synthetic oil and semi-synthetic oil differ as follows: 1. Fully synthetic oil has a wider operating temperature range and a longer service life; in terms of oil film requirements, synthetic oil can achieve the effects of higher viscosity semi-synthetic oil with lower viscosity. 2. Semi-synthetic oil is inferior to fully synthetic oil in terms of high-temperature fluidity and viscosity. However, semi-synthetic oil performs slightly better in terms of cleaning properties. Therefore, it is not recommended for performance cars or turbocharged vehicles to use semi-synthetic oil. 3. Using semi-synthetic oil may result in insufficient engine cooling, accelerated component wear, and rapid carbon buildup.

What happens if you turn the steering wheel too early or too late when reversing into a parking space?

Turning the steering wheel too early will cause the left edge line of the parking space to be pressed, and if it's too early, the car won't be able to enter the garage. Turning the steering wheel too late will cause the right edge line of the parking space to be pressed, and if it's too late, the car won't be able to enter the garage. Below is an introduction to reversing into a parking space: 1. Introduction: Reversing into a parking space is a mandatory test item for obtaining a small car driver's license after 2013. It assesses the driver's ability to operate the car in a specific area. Reversing into a parking space is a key assessment point in the driver's test, which involves correctly reversing the vehicle into the garage from both sides while in motion. 2. Methods: There are three most common methods for reversing. The first is the "non"-shaped reversing into a parking space, commonly seen in large shopping malls. The second is the roadside "one"-shaped reversing into a parking space, also known as parallel parking. 3. Content: Reverse from starting point A into garage B and park correctly. Proceed to the return area C and stop steadily. Reverse from the return area into garage B, stop steadily, and then return from garage B to A.

What are the reasons for the Honda Lingpai gear indicator light not working?

Lingpai gear indicator light not working reasons are as follows: 1. Damage: The gear indicator light is damaged. 2. Circuit: The power supply circuit of the gear indicator light is damaged. 3. Transmission: Problems with the transmission itself. 4. Switch: Fault in the transmission gear selector switch. 5. Wiring: Short circuit in the wiring caused by water ingress into the transmission. If the automatic transmission gear indicator light is not working, it will affect the normal use of the transmission. The automatic transmission does not require the driver to manually shift gears; the vehicle will automatically select the appropriate gear based on the driving speed and traffic conditions. When the vehicle is parked, the P (Park) gear should be used. For reversing, the R (Reverse) gear is used, and for driving forward, the D (Drive) gear is used. If encountering other road conditions, the S (Sport) gear may be required.
