What is the difference between the clutch and the accelerator?

The differences between the clutch and the accelerator are as follows: 1. The function of the clutch is to cut off the power transmission between the engine and the gearbox, making it convenient for the driver to change gears. 2. The accelerator is used by the driver to control the engine speed or, in other words, to regulate the amount of air entering the engine combustion chamber within a certain range. 3. As the name suggests, the clutch serves to separate and connect the engine and the transmission system. If the clutch is pressed down, the engine and the transmission system will be separated. In this case, pressing the accelerator will not increase the vehicle speed but will only cause the engine to idle, producing a buzzing sound. 4. The clutch pedal travel is divided into full travel and free travel. Full travel refers to the distance from the top to the bottom when the clutch pedal is pressed down under normal spring-back conditions, generally 100mm. Free travel refers to the distance the pedal travels from the moment the clutch is pressed until it is completely separated, generally 15mm-20mm.

Open the door from the mechanical lock on the driver's door. Grab the vehicle's remote control. Remove the internal mechanical key. Use the mechanical key to pry open the back of the door handle. Expose the internal mechanical lock hole. Insert the car key, turn it to open the door, and promptly address the door lock issue after opening.

What does dual engine in cars refer to?

Dual engine in cars refers to HEV (Hybrid Electric Vehicles), which are equipped with both an internal combustion engine and an electric motor as dual power sources. They utilize a specialized system to capture energy generated during braking and store it in the onboard battery. This not only enhances power performance but also reduces fuel consumption. The characteristic of dual-engine cars is their ability to optimally combine the strengths of both the engine and the electric motor based on different driving conditions such as starting, cruising, accelerating, and stopping. The vehicle intelligently determines the best combination to achieve outstanding environmental performance and driving efficiency. Additionally, these vehicles have self-charging capabilities and do not require external power sources for charging.

Quick Fixes for Sticky Car Door Handles?

The best approach is not to peel off the sticky layer directly. Instead, use a hairdryer to heat it up, and it will come off easily. If black sticky residue remains, apply White Flower Oil (if available at home) to the affected area, wipe it off with a cloth, and then clean the surface. For minor black marks, simply use an eraser to rub them off. For larger sticky areas, try applying anhydrous alcohol (industrial alcohol) to the residue, then wipe it away with a cloth.

How to Install Door Sealing Strips?

Installation of door sealing strips requires thorough cleaning and drying of both the installation parts and the sealing strip surface. Select an optimal adhesion position, locate the starting point of the seal, then proceed with gradual pressing and adhesion, ensuring no pulling action is applied to the sealing strip. Avoid sharp turns too quickly as this may compromise aesthetics. Additionally, ensure the 3M adhesive backing is free from dust or other impurities, and perform the adhesion process patiently to guarantee optimal results.

How to Repair Scratches on Car Door Glass?

Clean the glass with a clean cloth to ensure there are no debris or impurities on the glass, keeping it in a dry environment. Under a warm water faucet, use a clean, lint-free cloth—avoid rough fabrics and opt for smooth, non-shedding materials. Squeeze an appropriate amount of toothpaste onto the cloth based on the size of the scratch, adding more if necessary. It's best to use white, non-gel toothpaste. Move the cloth in small circular motions over the scratched area for about 30 seconds, then rinse with clean water and repeat as needed.
