1 Answers
About coasting downhill with the engine off, the incorrect statement is that coasting downhill uses the slope to propel the car forward, the engine does not work, which can save fuel, and should be strongly advocated. The following are detailed explanations about it: 1. Explanation one: For vehicles equipped with vacuum-assisted braking systems, turning off the engine downhill will cause the braking system to fail. 2. Explanation two: When the engine is off downhill, the vehicle cannot use engine braking. 3. Explanation three: For vehicles equipped with power steering systems, turning off the engine downhill will make the steering wheel heavier and difficult to control.
