Car jump-starting method with a dead battery is: 1. Prepare two jumper cables and a vehicle that can supply power; 2. Remove the battery box clips to open the battery protective cover, exposing the positive and negative terminals of the battery; 3. Take one jumper cable, connect one end to the positive terminal of the dead battery and the other end to the positive terminal of the live battery, ensuring the positive and negative terminals do not touch to avoid short-circuit hazards; 4. Take the other jumper cable, first connect it to the negative terminal of the live battery, then connect the other end to the engine block or body of the dead vehicle, avoiding negative-to-negative connection; 5. Once the cables are connected, start the live vehicle to provide a reliable voltage to the dead vehicle, completing the jump-start.

What kind of paint is the black color on the Avalon?

Asian Dragon's black color is a metallic paint with metal particles, called piano metallic paint. Characteristics of piano paint: One application can achieve a film thickness of 1mm, which is unmatched by other paint types; the paint film is full, clear and transparent, with hardness and glossiness higher than other paint types. The black color on the Avalon is a metallic paint with metal particles, meaning it has metallic highlights within the black, especially noticeable in sunny weather, giving it a higher grade appearance compared to other B-segment cars. Repair methods for piano paint: In case of minor scratches, general repair shops cannot handle it properly—the matched paint will inevitably differ from the original factory paint, resulting in color deviation. It is recommended to go to a 4S shop for repairs. After any car scratch, repairs will become noticeable over time and will not match the original factory paint. Although touch-up pens bought online can be used for minor fixes, upon closer inspection, the marks from the touch-up pen will still be visible.

What are the major maintenance items for the Tiguan?

Tiguan's 60,000 km major maintenance items typically performed by 4S shops include oil change, oil filter replacement, air filter replacement, cabin air filter replacement, transmission fluid change, brake fluid change, spark plug replacement, and coolant replacement. However, vehicle maintenance recommendations should primarily be based on actual usage conditions, supplemented by the owner's manual, combining both for optimal care. Interval for major car maintenance: Major maintenance exists alongside minor maintenance, usually alternating between these two services. The interval varies by car brand, so please follow the manufacturer's recommendations. Precautions: Regular major maintenance is generally required after several years of vehicle use or when the mileage approaches 100,000 km, though some cars require it at 60,000 km. A comprehensive vehicle inspection should be conducted, and parts should be replaced as needed. The most critical aspect is the vehicle's drivetrain system, as damage to it can have serious consequences. Additionally, the electrical system is important for vehicle safety, especially in older cars where wiring may age, loosen, or detach.

What is the actual range of the JAC E10X?

JAC E10X 2022 Flower Fairy models (Four-Leaf Clover, Starry Sky, Sunflower) all have a pure electric range of 306km. The driving range, also referred to as endurance capability, indicates the total distance a vehicle or ship can travel continuously with maximum fuel reserves. For electric vehicles, the driving range refers to the distance traveled from a fully charged state of the power battery to the end of the test under standard conditions, serving as a crucial economic indicator for EVs. How to check the vehicle's range: Simply look at the odometer on the dashboard, denoted by 'odo' with the value followed by the unit 'km'. Its purpose is to inform the driver of the distance traveled. How to calculate the vehicle's range: The driving range is calculated by dividing the remaining fuel in the vehicle's tank by the average fuel consumption. The fuel consumption is computed by the dashboard based on the recent 30 kilometers' fuel consumption per 100 kilometers. The range is updated every kilometer, gradually reflecting the remaining fuel under different road conditions.

What is the reason for the difficulty in engaging first gear in a manual transmission Lavida?

Lavida first gear is difficult to engage mainly because first gear lacks a synchronizer. Without a synchronizer, forcing a slowly rotating gear into a rapidly rotating gear will inevitably cause gear grinding. Function of the synchronizer: The role of the synchronizer is to quickly synchronize the transmission engagement sleeve with the gear ring to be engaged, reducing shift time and preventing shift impact before synchronization, allowing the car to drive more smoothly. The synchronizer is also installed on the intermediate shaft to improve synchronization efficiency, thereby reducing the friction torque of the cone ring, reducing wear, and extending the service life of the synchronizer. Synchronizer components: The synchronizer consists of three parts: the synchronization device (including the pushing component and friction component), the locking device, and the engagement device. Synchronizers come in various types, such as constant pressure type, inertial type, and self-energizing type. Types of synchronizers: Currently, almost all synchronizers use friction inertial synchronization devices. Depending on the locking device, they are further divided into lock-ring inertial synchronizers and lock-pin inertial synchronizers.
