The origin and evolution process of cars is as follows: 1. The invention of the car: It is said that the car was first created during the era of the Yellow Emperor. Legend has it that cars were invented as early as over 5,000 years ago during the Yellow Emperor's time. 2. The birth of the steam car: In 1769, Frenchman N·J·Cugnot manufactured the world's first steam-powered three-wheeled car. 3. The birth of the internal combustion engine car: The world's first car was successfully developed by German Karl Benz in October 1885, which set the tone for car design. 4. The birth of the first four-wheel car: In 1881, Daimler and Wilhelm Maybach collaborated to establish what was then the first so-called car factory. On August 15, 1883, Daimler and Maybach invented the gasoline internal combustion engine. 5. The application of car turbocharging: In 1918, when turbochargers were glowing red during operation, people questioned whether their operation mode would shorten engine life and incur high maintenance costs. Today, turbocharged engines are used in more and more cars and are more widely used in sports cars.

How to Clean a Diesel Engine Filter?

Cleaning methods for diesel engine filters: 1. For air filters, remove dust every 50 to 100 hours of operation by brushing off surface dust with a soft brush. If the filter has been in use for over 500 hours or is damaged, it should be replaced promptly. 2. For oil-bath air filters, clean the filter element with clean diesel and replace the engine oil every 100 to 200 hours of operation. If the filter element is broken, it must be replaced immediately. 3. For oil filters, clean them using a mixture of engine oil, kerosene, and diesel as cleaning oil. Oil filters should be cleaned every 180 to 200 hours of operation. If any damage is found, replace the filter immediately to prevent impurities from entering the lubrication surface.

How to Turn Off the Position Lights?

Position light switch is generally located on the light control lever on the left side of the steering wheel. Turn the knob to the OFF position to turn them off. Usually, the switches for position lights, low beams, high beams, and fog lights are all on the left-hand control lever. Position lights are also called clearance lights, which automatically turn on when the car lights are activated. At the rear of the car, there is one red light on each side for small vehicles. They are turned on when it is not completely dark to indicate the width of the car to other drivers and vehicles behind. Position lights are used during dusk driving to help other drivers judge the size and width of the vehicle ahead. When the light switch is turned to the first position, the small lights that illuminate at the front and rear are the position lights. The next position after the position lights is the low beams, and the high beams refer to the main headlights.

Can You Drive When the Car Transmission Failure Light Comes On?

Whether you can drive when the car transmission failure light comes on depends on the situation: If it's a yellow light, you can continue driving for a short period, but you should maintain low-speed driving and go to a 4S shop or a professional auto repair shop for repairs as soon as possible; If it's a red light, it is recommended to stop immediately, call for assistance, and have the car towed away. Continuing to drive can easily damage the transmission, and in severe cases, it may need to be replaced directly. There are many reasons for car transmission failure, such as the transmission temperature being too high, transmission oil leakage, problems with the transmission control unit, etc. If you frequently shift gears while driving at high speed for a long time, it is also very likely to trigger the failure light alarm. There is also a possibility of an occasional fault code, in which case the car is basically fine.

What does the car ion mean?

The car ion refers to the negative ion purification function for vehicle air. When this function is activated, the negative ion generator produces and releases a large number of negative ions. Since harmful substances such as dust, particles, and formaldehyde in the air can easily adsorb to these negative ions, they form larger particles and settle down, which are then filtered out by the air filter to achieve the effect of purifying the air inside the car. The air negative ion purification function is generally equipped in high-end models, and vehicles without this function naturally do not have an ion button. For vehicles equipped with the air negative ion purification function but lacking a physical ion button, it is usually integrated into the central control screen. After opening the air conditioning interface on the screen, the ion touch button can be clearly seen.

What is the voltage of a car battery?

Car batteries are generally 12 volts, with the actual no-load voltage typically measuring between 12.5 to 13 volts. A battery, also known as an accumulator, is a type of cell that works by converting chemical energy into electrical energy. The commonly referred to car battery is a lead-acid battery, which is primarily made of lead and its oxides, with sulfuric acid solution as the electrolyte. A battery is a rechargeable cell that can be reused after discharging, including lead-acid batteries, nickel-iron batteries, and nickel-cadmium batteries. In a lead-acid battery, the positive electrode is lead dioxide, the negative electrode is lead, and the electrolyte is a dilute sulfuric acid solution. During discharge, the positive and negative electrodes react with sulfuric acid to form lead sulfate. When the concentration of the sulfuric acid solution drops to a certain level, the battery must be recharged. Using an external power source for charging can restore the electrodes and solution to their original state, allowing the battery to be used again after charging.

Can I take the Subject 4 test with an expired ID card?

You cannot take the Subject 4 test with an expired ID card, but you can apply for a temporary ID card at the public security bureau.

Subject 4, also known as the Subject 4 theoretical test or driver's theory test, is part of the motor vehicle driver's license examination. After the implementation of Order No. 139 by the Ministry of Public Security of the People's Republic of China, the Subject 3 test was divided into two parts: the road test and the safety and civilization knowledge test, commonly known as Subject 4, which assesses driving ethics.
