New energy automatic transmission vehicles typically have 6-7 gears, which are D (Drive), P (Park), R (Reverse), N (Neutral), S (Sport), and L (Low). Below is a detailed introduction to each gear: D (Drive): The most commonly used gear, where shifting up or down can be controlled by the accelerator pedal. D1 (or L gear), D2, D3 are equivalent to the 1st, 3rd, 5th, and 6th gears of a manual transmission. L (Low): When descending a slope, shifting into a lower gear reduces the need for braking; when ascending a slope, shifting into a lower gear provides more power. R (Reverse): This gear can only be engaged when the vehicle is stationary. Some models with a lock button require pressing the button to switch. N (Neutral): Used for temporary stops, such as at traffic lights, and the handbrake should be engaged. Do not use this gear when descending a slope. S (Sport): The difference between D and S gears is simply the computer switching to a different shifting program, so S gear can be switched at any time without damaging the transmission. It is suitable for overtaking but not for high-speed driving. P (Park): The lock button must be pressed when entering P or R gear or when leaving P gear. Specifically, gears that could cause reverse impact on the transmission will be locked, and the lock button must be pressed to unlock when shifting.

How to Replace the Transmission Fluid for a 2012 BMW 1 Series?

BMW 1 Series Transmission Fluid Replacement Methods: 1. Gravity Drain. The process is similar to changing engine oil. Loosen the oil pan bolt and let the transmission fluid drain out by gravity. This is the most common and easiest method, but it cannot completely remove all the old transmission fluid. Residual fluid remains due to mechanical design features like recesses and uneven surfaces. 2. Machine Flush. New transmission fluid is added to a flushing machine, which connects to the transmission's fluid lines. The machine circulates new fluid to push out the old fluid, ensuring a thorough replacement. This method cleans the fluid passages more effectively, especially in transmissions with higher mileage. A machine flush typically requires about 10 liters of fluid and takes approximately 1 hour. 3. Oil Pan Removal. This method allows for a thorough replacement and cleaning, including servicing the contaminated filter. Removing the oil pan is labor-intensive, resulting in higher service costs. Symptoms of Degraded BMW 1 Series Transmission Fluid: 1. Slipping: Engine RPM increases without corresponding acceleration, poor uphill performance, and delayed response. 2. Leaks: Insufficient lubrication inside the transmission, causing difficulty in acceleration. 3. Jerking: Degraded fluid and debris interfere with smooth gear engagement. 4. Noise: Loud noises from the transmission during driving may indicate deteriorated fluid. 5. Overheating: The dashboard will display a transmission warning light. 6. Stalling: Possible failure of the lock-up control valve components.

How to Handle Vehicle Violations?

Vehicle violations can be handled through online processing or at traffic violation processing windows. Below are the relevant details: 1. Online Processing: For violations with penalty points less than 3, including highway violations, you can directly process them online. Additionally, by passing a theoretical knowledge test, you may be exempted from point deductions. To pay fines online, you need to access the public security website, provide a valid driver's license and identity information, and complete mobile phone verification. Each driver is allowed this once per year. 2. Traffic Violation Processing Window: For penalties involving more than 3 points, you must first complete the violation processing procedures at a designated traffic violation window before paying the fine at a bank branch. When accepting the penalty, bring the vehicle registration certificate of the violating vehicle and the driver's license of the violating driver (or the representative). Any point deductions will be applied to the driver who physically attends to accept the penalty.

Why Aren't Many People Buying the Touran?

Few people buy the Touran because of its high maintenance costs. Here is an introduction to the Touran: 1. Overview: The Touran is a new car born on the Volkswagen PQ35 platform in 2003. When it entered the domestic market, Shanghai Volkswagen specifically created a new concept for it—MPS (Multi-Purpose Sedan). 2. Content: Although the naming differs from SMPV, they are both multi-purpose models built on sedan platforms, combining the comfort of a sedan with the versatility of an MPV. 3. Development: Compared to MPVs, Multi-Purpose Sedans (MPS) extensively utilize mature technologies and design concepts from sedan manufacturing, matching sedan craftsmanship in terms of energy consumption, environmental protection, comfort, and details. At the same time, they incorporate a large number of humanized space design concepts from sedans, offering not only spacious but also comfortable and thoughtful interiors that can meet the needs of different scenarios.

What Are the Causes of Car Idle Shaking?

There are 4 main causes of car idle shaking. Here are the explanations: 1. Severe engine carbon deposits. The most common cause of car shaking is a dirty throttle body or excessive carbon buildup in the fuel injectors. When there is too much carbon deposit inside the engine, the gasoline sprayed by the cold-start injector will be largely absorbed by the carbon deposits, resulting in an overly lean air-fuel mixture during cold starts and making it difficult to start. In this situation, the car will only start easily after the carbon deposits have absorbed enough gasoline to reach saturation. After starting, the gasoline adsorbed on the carbon deposits will be sucked into the cylinders by the engine's vacuum for combustion, making the air-fuel mixture too rich. The engine's combustible mixture alternates between being too lean and too rich, causing idle shaking after a cold start. 2. Ignition system issues. Check the condition of the spark plugs, high-voltage wires, and ignition coils. Poor performance of the ignition system or weak spark plug firing can also lead to such symptoms. The solution is to check if the spark plugs have excessive carbon buildup and replace them if necessary. 3. Unstable fuel pressure. If the fuel pump's supply pressure is abnormal or the intake pressure sensor's readings are incorrect or malfunctioning, it can cause the car body to shake. The solution is to check the fuel pressure and replace components if needed. 4. Aging engine components. Car shaking can also be related to worn engine mounts. Engine mounts are essentially the engine's vibration damping system, responsible for absorbing minor vibrations during engine operation. If the engine mounts are faulty, these vibrations will be transmitted to the steering wheel and the cabin, causing shaking during idle.

What is the diameter of a 22-inch wheel hub in centimeters?

The diameter of the wheel is 55.88 centimeters. 22 inches refers to the diameter of the wheel hub, where 1 inch equals 2.54 centimeters. 22 * 2.54 = 55.88 centimeters, which is not an exact value but rather an approximate figure. Wheel diameter: The wheel diameter affects the driving force of the engine. The larger the diameter, the greater the driving force required by the engine. In stop-and-go urban driving conditions, larger tire diameters result in higher fuel consumption, while smaller tire diameters offer better fuel efficiency. Aspect ratio: Generally, the larger the aspect ratio, the thicker the tire sidewall and the greater the rolling resistance. Tires with smaller aspect ratios have thinner sidewalls, resulting in less deformation at the contact patch with the ground, lower dynamic resistance, and better fuel efficiency. In addition to the wheel diameter model, tires are also marked with the following common data: Tire cord material: Indicated by Chinese pinyin, such as M for cotton cord, R for rayon cord, N for nylon cord, G for steel cord, and ZG for steel radial cord tires. Speed rating: Indicates the maximum speed at which the tire can carry a specified load under defined conditions. Letters from A to Z represent certified speed ratings ranging from 4.8 km/h to 300 km/h. Common speed ratings include: Q: 160 km/h; H: 210 km/h; V: 240 km/h; W: 270 km/h; Y: 300 km/h. Rim specification: Indicates the rim size compatible with the tire for practical use, such as standard rim 5.00F.
