Wet dual-clutch transmissions have a lifespan of approximately 500,000 kilometers. A wet dual-clutch transmission refers to a dual-clutch transmission where the clutch plates are immersed in transmission fluid. Dual-clutch transmissions are categorized into dry and wet types. Characteristics of dual-clutch transmissions: 1. DSG transmissions improve vehicle fuel economy; 2. They are highly responsive; 3. Vehicles experience no sensation of power interruption during acceleration, resulting in stronger and smoother acceleration; 4. When in manual mode, the transmission will not upshift even if the accelerator is fully depressed unless the driver initiates the upshift. The functions of a transmission are: 1. To alter the gear ratio to meet the traction requirements under different driving conditions; 2. To enable reverse driving; 3. To interrupt power transmission to the drive wheels during engine start, idle operation, gear shifting, or when the vehicle needs to stop while power output is required.

What to Do If Your Car Is Flooded?

The correct approach is to first call your insurance company, as in such situations, it's essential to have the insurance company conduct an on-site inspection. Because a waterlogged engine must not be forcibly started; doing so would likely result in the engine being completely ruined. Arrange for a tow truck to transport the car for repairs. If the engine inside the car has indeed taken in water, starting it would almost certainly lead to its destruction.

What to Do If a Child Scratches Your Car?

The first thing is to make the child understand the seriousness of the matter. You should catch them and have them call their parents. Discuss compensation with the child's parents. Repairing the scratches is an expense, and since it wasn't caused by you, the responsible party should take care of it. If you think the scratches are not serious and don't require compensation, you can still call the child's parents and ask them to educate their child about this issue. If you cannot reach an agreement with the child's parents on compensation, you should choose to call the police.

How Does Insurance Compensate for a Flooded Car?

If the car has comprehensive insurance and is flooded while parked, the insurance will fully cover the repair costs. If the car has comprehensive insurance but stalls and gets flooded while driving, the insurance will cover the compensation if it includes water damage coverage. Without water damage coverage, only the parts other than the engine will be compensated. If the car is flooded and the engine is damaged due to forced starting, the insurance will not cover the claim. In case of flooding, take photos as evidence and call the insurance company to report the incident.
