What is the HOLD function in a car?

In automatic transmission vehicles, the full name of HOLD is AUTO-HOLD, which is a very practical automatic parking function. When waiting at a red light and needing to stop briefly, the vehicle will automatically brake the wheels after coming to a complete stop to prevent rolling. When parking on a slope, the system will automatically brake the wheels. Once the vehicle's power is sufficient—that is, when the driving force exceeds the rolling resistance—the wheels will be automatically released, allowing the vehicle to continue moving forward. After starting the car, press the HOLD button, and the HOLD indicator on the dashboard will light up, indicating that the automatic parking system is activated. During driving, when you need to stop, press the brake pedal until the vehicle comes to a halt. The HOLD indicator will light up on the screen, and you can release the brake pedal while the vehicle remains in the braking state. When you need to resume driving, simply tap the accelerator pedal lightly to release the braking function. This avoids the need to use the handbrake or electronic parking brake and simplifies the frequent shifting between D to N or D to P.

Must You Avoid Rolling Down Windows for Three Days After Tinting?

After applying car window tint, it is advisable to avoid rolling the windows up and down for several days, as the newly installed tint film requires 5-7 days to firmly adhere to the window. During this period, the film, which hasn't fully bonded, is prone to shifting. Additionally, the following precautions should be noted: 1. Avoid washing the car: It's important to refrain from washing the car within the first three days after tinting to prevent the film from peeling off due to moisture. 2. Defroster lines: Try not to use the rear window defroster for about a week. After tinting, you may notice a foggy appearance caused by water vapor—this is a normal part of the drying process. Excess moisture can also negatively affect the defroster lines. During this time, you can gently clean the tinted surface with a damp towel, sponge, or soft cloth. Moreover, the foggy appearance will gradually fade over time.

What is the difference between a mechanical torque-sensing limited-slip differential and a Torsen differential?

Here are the differences between a mechanical torque-sensing limited-slip differential and a Torsen differential: 1. Nature: The Torsen differential functions as a differential when the differential torque inside is small, but automatically locks when the differential torque becomes too large, effectively improving the vehicle's off-road capability. Off-road vehicles with only electronic limited-slip are suitable for icy roads and light off-roading but not for extreme off-road conditions. 2. Principle: The Torsen differential operates based on the high internal friction torque (Mr) of the worm gear transmission pair for torque distribution. The internal friction torque (Mr) depends on the relative speed of the output shafts at both ends. When the speed difference between the two output shafts is small, the friction of the worm driven by the rear worm gear is also minimal. The differential spur gear absorbs the speed difference between the two output shafts. The mechanical limited-slip differential prevents tire slippage through mechanical principles, distributing driving force evenly to all four tires. Such off-road vehicles can handle high-intensity and prolonged off-road conditions, making them the most rugged off-road vehicles available.

Where is the fog light located on a car?

Car fog lights are located below the headlights, at the lowest part of the bumper closest to the ground. Fog lights are divided into front fog lights and rear fog lights. The fog light activation button is on the light control stalk. Locate the fog light symbol position and rotate the control ring to turn on the fog lights. The fog light switch has three positions: position 0 is off, the first position controls the front fog lights, and the second position controls the rear fog lights. When one position is engaged, the front fog lights work; when two positions are engaged, both front and rear fog lights operate together. The purpose of fog lights is to make the vehicle visible to others in conditions of reduced visibility such as fog or heavy rain, so fog light beams need to have strong penetration capability.

What is the Impact of Unsprung Mass on Vehicle Performance?

Unsprung mass affects vehicle acceleration and handling. Below is an introduction to the relevant content: 1. Performance Enhancement: If a car is compared to a sprinter, then the unsprung mass is like running shoes—the lighter the shoes, the faster the sprinter runs. By replacing heavy components with lightweight aluminum alloy wheels and suspension parts (such as control arms and rocker arms), the unsprung mass can be effectively reduced, thereby improving the vehicle's acceleration and handling performance. 2. Other Effects of Unsprung Mass: When a vehicle is driven on the road, the suspension system continuously absorbs impacts from the road surface. The ideal comfort state for passengers is when the vehicle body remains relatively stationary to the road surface while the wheels move up and down with the road conditions. Achieving this purely through mechanical structures is nearly impossible, but by increasing the ratio of sprung mass to unsprung mass, the vehicle can come closer to this ideal driving state.

What is the purpose of road width transition markings?

The purpose of setting road width transition markings is to alert drivers that there will be intersections, crosswalks, or other crossing facilities ahead, requiring them to slow down or stop to yield. Specific functions of road width transition markings: When vehicles pass through sections with longitudinal deceleration markings, drivers will visually perceive the lane gradually narrowing. This serves as a reminder for drivers to increase their attention, take deceleration measures in advance, and drive slowly. It helps prevent situations where drivers abruptly brake when approaching the stop line, avoiding potential accidents. These markings effectively prevent sudden braking by motor vehicle drivers before reaching the stop line. Pedestrians on crosswalks can clearly sense vehicles yielding, thereby feeling safer, reflecting a harmonious traffic environment between pedestrians and vehicles. Appearance of road width transition markings: Longitudinal deceleration markings consist of a series of diamond-shaped dashed lines parallel to the lane boundary lines. At the starting position of these markings, a 30-meter transition section is set, where the diamond-shaped dashed lines gradually widen from 10 cm to 30 cm. These markings are one of the new additions to the national standard for road traffic markings (GB5768.2-2009).
