The differences between ZF MT and ZF MT+ transmission oil are as follows: 1. Different boiling points: The boiling point of ZF MT is greater than or equal to 205°C, while the boiling point of ZF MT+ is greater than or equal to 230°C. If the boiling point of the transmission oil is too low, it can easily vaporize in the system, causing vapor lock, which may lead to delayed braking or even brake failure. 2. Different types: ZF MT is an alcohol-ether type, and its water content gradually increases during use or storage. Since the boiling point of the transmission oil decreases as the water content increases, its braking performance will decline accordingly. ZF MT+ is an ester type, which can decompose the absorbed water, thereby slowing down the decrease in boiling point caused by water absorption. Therefore, the performance of the ester type is better than that of the alcohol-ether type.

Which brand is the transmission of the Roewe i5?

The Roewe i5 uses a CVT transmission independently developed by SAIC. This transmission can simulate 8 gears, enhancing the smoothness of the car. The transmission has a high matching degree with the engine, ensuring smooth driving force whether during rapid acceleration or sudden deceleration. The Roewe i5 has upgraded to 16-inch dual-tone wheels and a 12.3-inch LCD digital interactive instrument cluster. At the same time, the 4G-connected entertainment driving system in the car has also been upgraded. Additionally, the new car has undergone certain adjustments in configuration, including the addition of a 1.5L ADAS version model, equipped with ACC adaptive cruise control, AEB automatic emergency braking, SAS intelligent speed assistance, and other features.

How Deep Does Water Need to Be for the Engine to Take in Water?

For ordinary sedans, when the water level reaches above 20 centimeters (for SUVs with higher ground clearance, this threshold increases to 30 centimeters), there is a risk of water entering the engine. Below is relevant information: 1. Ways water enters the engine: There are two main ways water can enter the engine: first, due to the low position of the engine's air intake, water can be sucked into the engine when the vehicle is driving through water; second, if the exhaust pipe's outlet is below the waterline, water can be sucked into the engine through the exhaust pipe when the vehicle is in water. 2. Handling method: If water enters the engine, it will inevitably cause the engine to stall. Since water in the cylinders lacks lubricating properties, attempting to restart the engine blindly after stalling can lead to severe engine damage, such as cylinder scuffing, potentially rendering the engine irreparable. The correct course of action is to push the vehicle to a higher, water-free area, contact your insurance company, and then have the vehicle towed to a repair shop to assess the extent of water damage.

How long is one study hour for Subject 3?

Each study hour for Subject 3 is 60 minutes, with effective teaching time required to be no less than 45 minutes when clocking in study hours. According to regulations, examinees can clock in a maximum of 4 hours per day, and any study hours exceeding 4 will not be counted. The "Motor Vehicle Driver Training Teaching Outline" stipulates that for common C1 and C2 driver's license tests, 24 study hours must be completed to schedule Subject 3. This includes 2 theoretical study hours and 22 practical in-car study hours. For A1 and B1 licenses, 20 study hours are required, while A2, A3, and B2 licenses require 22, 33, and 32 study hours for Subject 3, respectively. For clocking in study hours, trainees generally need to input their fingerprints during practice, and then the instructor must swipe their card to prevent cheating by substitution. Some regions have also begun implementing facial recognition for clocking in, which is a more convenient method.

What are the reasons for a motorcycle not responding at all when trying to start it?

There are several reasons why a motorcycle may not respond at all when trying to start it: 1. Insufficient fuel, leading to no fuel in the carburetor; 2. Damaged spark plug that needs replacement. Motorcycles are powered by gasoline engines and are two or three-wheeled vehicles steered by handlebars, known for their lightweight, agility, and speed, widely used for patrols and passenger or cargo transport. Daily maintenance methods for motorcycles include: 1. During the break-in period, keep the motorcycle's idle speed at 100 rpm; 2. Match the gear with the speed; 3. When braking is needed due to obstacles ahead, release the throttle, step on the rear brake with the right foot, and gently apply the front brake with the right hand; 4. Regularly check the spark plug; 5. Regularly lubricate the chain.
