Off-road positioning: SUV tread pattern type, mainly Highway Pattern (HP)/Highway Terrain (HT), followed by 4*4 which is between HT and All-Terrain (AT). AT is for off-road, and the most off-road is Mud-Terrain (MT). The following is related content: 1. Specifications and dimensions: The smaller the sidewall height of the tire, the more suitable it is for highways; the higher, the more suitable for off-road. Generally, tires for off-road use have a sidewall height of around 16cm, while highway-type tires are around 130. The wider the tire width, the more suitable it is for off-road, with nominal widths typically being 245/255/265. 2. Tire model: The markings are mostly in the form of: 215/70R15. The meanings of these numbers are: 215 represents the tire section width in mm, generally ranging from 145—285mm, in increments of 10mm; 70 is the aspect ratio, which is the ratio of the tire sidewall height to the tire section width, with 70 representing 70%. Generally, the aspect ratio of tires ranges between 30%—80%. Under normal circumstances, ordinary cars should not use tires with an aspect ratio >75%, while luxury cars and high-performance sports cars are recommended to use tires with an aspect ratio

Should You Press the Clutch When Starting a Car?

You should press the clutch when starting a car. Benefits of pressing the clutch: 1. Reduces starting load: When the vehicle is in neutral, although the engine input shaft gear is not engaged with the transmission power output gear, part of the engine's power is still consumed by components such as the clutch driven plate and output shaft. Pressing the clutch cuts off this consumption, thereby reducing the load on the starter and battery, making the start smoother. 2. Prevents accidents: Some drivers are accustomed to using the gear to park and do not have the habit of pressing the clutch when starting the vehicle. If they forget that the vehicle is in gear, the sudden movement of the car during startup may occur, increasing the risk of a traffic accident. 3. Extends engine life: If the driver does not press the clutch, the engine can still start, but this increases the burden on the starter and the current output of the battery, affecting the ignition effect of the engine. Over time, this can cause certain damage to the engine.

What Causes the Grinding Sound When Shifting into Reverse Gear?

Grinding sound when shifting gears, also known as gear clash, mainly occurs due to clutch malfunctions. Specifically, mechanical issues with the clutch prevent it from disengaging properly, leading to gear clash during shifting. Below are the detailed causes of gear grinding and precautions for gear shifting: Operational Causes: This refers to improper clutch usage, where the driver attempts to shift gears without fully disengaging the clutch. This results in grinding noises and failure to engage the gear. Persistent gear clash can significantly reduce the transmission's lifespan. Shifting Precautions: Avoid looking down at the gear lever while shifting. Prolonged driving in low gears is inefficient; generally, higher gears offer better fuel economy, so upshift promptly after starting. Ensure the clutch pedal is fully depressed during shifts to prevent gear damage. Additionally, avoid resting your foot on the clutch when not in use to prevent excessive wear on the release bearing.

Do I Need to Take Tests After Obtaining a Driver's License?

Whether you need to take tests after obtaining a driver's license depends on the type of license. The specific requirements are as follows: Cases where no test is required: No further tests are required for licenses below Class C. For newly obtained licenses for large buses, tractors, city buses, medium-sized buses, and large trucks, you must take a test on road traffic safety laws and regulations, safe and civilized driving, emergency handling, and other knowledge within 30 days after the one-year probation period ends. Additionally, you must receive at least half an hour of traffic accident case warning education. Once you legally obtain your driver's license, no further tests are required. Cases where tests are required: There are several situations where you need to take tests even if you already have a driver's license: If you accumulate 12 points in one scoring cycle, you must attend safety education and take a related safety knowledge test; If you are involved in a major traffic accident, depending on local regulations, you may need to attend several hours of safety education or take a test; If your points are relatively high (e.g., reaching 9 points), you can voluntarily apply for safety course education to reduce points, and some may require a final exam.

What Causes the Engine to Fail to Start After Replacing the Diesel Filter?

After replacing the diesel filter, the engine may fail to start due to the need for an adaptation period. Below are the solutions for this issue: Solutions: The owner can first drive the vehicle for a while to see if the starting performance improves, or visit a repair shop to have a technician check whether other components are damaged. Regular Replacement of the Diesel Filter: The diesel filter is a wear part that requires regular replacement, typically every 5,000 to 10,000 kilometers. Regular replacement ensures better quality of the diesel involved in combustion, improves the engine's output power, and enhances the vehicle's performance.

Should You Press the Brake When Shifting Gears?

Shifting gears does not require pressing the brake. After shifting, release your hand immediately and avoid keeping it on the gear lever for too long, as this can easily damage the lever. Gear shifting operation method: When shifting gears, coordinate the clutch and accelerator properly. Press the clutch all the way down, then release the accelerator pedal, and quickly shift to the corresponding gear. Avoid driving in low gear for extended periods: If driving at low speeds for a long time, the vehicle speed is low but the engine speed is high, resulting in fewer miles traveled per unit of time and relatively increased fuel consumption. Therefore, it is recommended that after starting the vehicle, unless it is a cold start in low temperatures, shift to an appropriate higher gear as soon as possible. Generally, higher gears are more fuel-efficient than lower gears. Avoid downshifting without revving: When downshifting on gears with synchronizers, it is possible to downshift without revving by using a single clutch press, but this can easily cause wear and premature damage to components. Therefore, it is recommended to use the double-clutch method with a rev, regardless of whether the vehicle has synchronizers.

What Causes Power Loss After Replacing the Clutch Plate?

If you experience power loss immediately after replacing the clutch plate, this is quite normal because the new clutch plate hasn't been properly worn in yet, and the contact surface is still smooth. The situation will improve after some driving. Below are the reasons for power loss after replacing the clutch plate: Specific reasons: If you've already driven more than 500 kilometers after the replacement and still feel slipping, you can preliminarily determine that the clutch plate is substandard or the pressure plate is defective. Another possibility is that the mechanic didn't readjust the clutch travel and free play after replacing the clutch assembly, leading to slight clutch slippage. Clutch usage precautions: When using the clutch, the principle is "quick disengagement, slow engagement." You should press the pedal decisively and release it slowly. Abruptly releasing the pedal can damage the clutch assembly's pressure springs and break the clutch plate's torsion springs, while also harming the entire drivetrain. However, you should also minimize the time spent in partial clutch engagement (as this causes extreme wear on the clutch plate and rapidly increases temperature, accelerating wear and creating a vicious cycle).
