The normal tire pressure for the Fista is around 2.2 to 2.5 bar. Tire pressure refers to the air pressure inside the tire. The Fista is a compact 4-door 5-seater sedan with the following dimensions: length 4660mm, width 1790mm, height 1425mm, wheelbase 2700mm, and fuel tank capacity of 53 liters. The Fista is equipped with a 1.6T turbocharged engine and a 7-speed dual-clutch transmission, delivering a maximum power of 140 kW and a maximum torque of 265 N·m. It features front-wheel drive, with a MacPherson strut independent suspension at the front and a multi-link independent suspension at the rear.

When I used to drive the Fista, the normal tire pressure was around 33 to 35 PSI, with the front and rear wheels generally being about the same. I guess you're asking this to avoid trouble on the road, right? After all, improper tire pressure can be really annoying. If it's too low, the tires wear out faster, fuel consumption increases, and the car feels sluggish; if it's too high, the ride becomes bumpy and braking isn't as effective. It's best to check the car's manual or the small label on the driver's door edge, as it has the official recommended values. Personally, I make it a habit to check the tire pressure every two months, using a cheap tire pressure gauge when the car is cold in the morning for the most accurate reading. In summer when it's hot, the air tends to expand a bit, so I adjust it slightly lower; in winter when it's cold, I inflate it a bit more. Safety comes first, so don't skimp on these small details.

What happens if you release the clutch and then step on the brake?

If you step on the brake while in gear, the engine will stall. If in neutral, stepping on the brake has no effect. Below are the relevant explanations: 1. At low speeds: For a manual transmission car, if the car is stationary and you press the brake fully without disengaging the clutch, the engine cannot drive the car, causing the crankshaft to stop moving and the engine to stall. While moving, as long as the car's speed is higher than the speed corresponding to the engine idle speed at the current transmission gear ratio, the car will not stall. 2. At high speeds: When decelerating, if the speed is above 40, it is advisable to brake while in gear (this effectively utilizes the engine's resistance to decelerate, reduces brake pad wear, and avoids clutch wear). After the speed drops below 40, you can then press the clutch to shift to neutral or engage a suitable lower gear.

Does the EA211-DJS Engine Burn Oil?

ea211-djs engine burns oil. The following are the reasons related to the EA211 engine burning oil: 1. Low-quality oil or incorrect viscosity grade: Low-quality oil can lead to increased wear. Additionally, oil viscosity that is too low or too high can cause poor engine lubrication, increasing wear on piston rings and cylinder walls, reducing sealing performance, and leading to oil burning; 2. Overfilling of oil: When the oil level exceeds the midpoint, due to high oil pressure, parts lubricated by splash lubrication during engine operation can enter the combustion chamber and burn excessively; 3. Turbocharger oil leakage: The turbo shaft of the turbocharger is lubricated by floating bearings. This type of vehicle has an oil passage leading to the turbocharger. Leakage in the pipeline or bearings may cause oil to seep from the turbocharger into the exhaust pipe. When the exhaust pipe temperature is high, the oil is baked and emitted as blue smoke.

Do Car Tires with Cracks Need to Be Replaced?

Tire cracking, if it occurs on the tread area, can be assessed based on the severity of the cracks to determine whether replacement is necessary. However, if cracks appear on the sidewall, especially at the junction between the sidewall and the bead filler, immediate replacement is essential. Below are methods to determine if a tire needs replacement: 1. Outer edge wear: If significant wear is observed on the outer edge of the tire when viewed in the direction of travel, it indicates that the tire has frequently been underinflated, meaning the pressure is insufficient. Inflate the tire to highway standards, which is approximately 30 kPa higher than the normal pressure. 2. Convex and wave-like wear: If the tire's contact area shows convex wear on both sides and wave-like wear around the circumference, it suggests issues with the vehicle's shock absorbers. 3. Even surface wear: Once the tread pattern is worn out, it signifies the end of the tire's lifespan, and replacement is mandatory. The tread pattern also plays a crucial role in dispersing water from the road surface, which is vital for maintaining the car's traction.

Are Mechanical Keys Made of Iron?

Car mechanical keys are not made of pure iron but of an alloy. Below are the specific reasons why a mechanical key might not open the car door: 1. Connection Device Failure: The connection device between the door handle and the door lock may fail. Due to the jolts during driving, the door linkage might detach, preventing the door lock from sensing the action of pulling the door handle. 2. Frozen Door in Winter: In winter, if the door lock, handle, or door frame freezes, the key might not open the door. If the door is frozen, do not force it open as this could damage the door. Instead, pour hot water on the frozen parts to speed up the melting process. 3. Incorrect Key Turning Direction: Operating the key incorrectly by turning it the wrong way. In most cases, turning the key clockwise unlocks the door, while turning it counterclockwise locks it. 4. Lock Cylinder Malfunction: Most car owners use remote keys to unlock or lock the car doors and rarely use mechanical keys. The lock cylinder might rust from disuse. In such cases, try adding some engine oil to the lock cylinder.

What to Learn on the First Day of Driving Practice?

Generally, on the first day, the instructor will have the trainee practice steering wheel control, familiarize with gear positions, and master clutch operation. The details are as follows: Practicing Steering Wheel Control: Before officially getting into the car, the instructor will ensure the trainee is proficient in steering wheel techniques. Therefore, on the first day, the instructor usually has the trainee practice on a steering wheel stand for some time, rather than directly operating in the car. Familiarizing with Gear Positions: The first task upon getting into the car is to become familiar with the layout of the gear positions. Understanding the pattern and arrangement of the gears is crucial to avoid confusion during later tests or the habit of looking down at the gears while shifting. Mastering Clutch Control: Besides getting a feel for the clutch's depth, since shifting gears and operating the clutch require precise timing, the instructor will have the trainee gradually sense the timing between shifting and clutch operation during the first driving session. This means pressing the clutch before shifting, and not shifting gears while releasing the clutch.

Does turning on the air conditioning when the car is turned off affect the car?

Turning on the air conditioning when the car is turned off does have an impact on the vehicle. Not turning off the air conditioning before shutting down the engine can cause the car to start with the air conditioning compressor running the next time it is turned on, increasing the load and potentially causing long-term damage to the engine. Leaving the air conditioning on when the engine is off means the compressor will start together with the engine during the next ignition, placing additional strain on the motor. Generally, it is not advisable to turn on the air conditioning when the engine is cold, as it can harm the engine. Correct usage of car air conditioning: Turn off the air conditioning a few minutes before reaching your destination while keeping the blower running to evaporate moisture from the condenser, ensuring the relative dryness of the air conditioning system. This helps reduce bacterial growth and odor formation. The air conditioning should also be turned on only after the engine has started. During daily use of the air conditioning, even though there is an air filter, a small amount of dust can still enter the ducts. If the air conditioning is consistently used at low fan speeds, dirt can accumulate inside, leading to odors over time and affecting health. In hot weather, it is best to start by opening the external circulation, lowering all windows, driving for a few minutes before closing the windows, and then switching back to internal circulation. This method ensures the fastest temperature drop.
