Here are the reasons why the FAW Weizhi semi-automatic gear cannot be engaged: 1. Solenoid valve: Caused by the solenoid valve, which has a small valve core that operates by electric current, similar to the working valve in the valve body. This leads to unstable oil pressure regulation and uneven switching. 2. Mechanical failure: Mechanical failure caused by internal wear of the transmission. 3. Brake clutch: Slippage caused by brake clutch pressure leakage, or abnormal data reading due to sensor issues. 4. ECU failure: Sensor or ECU problems can cause the transmission to lock. Restarting the ignition will allow the vehicle's computer to re-detect the transmission data, and the issue may be resolved after restarting.

I also experienced trouble shifting gears when driving a FAW Vizi. That time on the highway, no matter how hard I pushed, it wouldn't budge. Later, after inspection, it was found that the motor in the shift mechanism was stuck, or the transmission control module had failed—both common issues in AMT systems. Sometimes, insufficient lubrication can make the gear lever stiff, or internal wear and deformation of the linkage can prevent it from locking into place. At the time, I tried turning the car off and restarting it, and after a few attempts, it surprisingly engaged again. But for safety, I immediately went to a repair shop. The professional mechanic diagnosed it with a computer and replaced the faulty parts, which completely fixed the issue. After daily drives, remember to check the transmission fluid to avoid such headaches—after all, not being able to shift properly is really frustrating. If you encounter similar issues, don't push through it; find a reliable repair shop to inspect the electronic control system to prevent small problems from turning into big troubles.

Symptoms of a Faulty Common Rail Pressure Relief Valve?

Symptoms of a faulty fuel pump pressure relief valve include: the valve disc not reseating after discharge, primarily caused by a bent spring valve stem, improper installation of the valve disc, or it being stuck. Failure to open at the specified pressure: The reasons for this include inaccurate pressure setting; the valve disc sticking to the valve seat; the lever of a lever-type safety valve getting stuck or the counterweight being moved. Continued rise in pressure after discharge: This is mainly due to the selected safety valve having insufficient discharge capacity; misaligned valve stem centerline or a rusty spring preventing the valve disc from opening to the required height. Valve disc chattering or vibration: Primarily caused by excessive spring stiffness; improper adjustment of the adjusting ring; excessive discharge pipe resistance, leading to high discharge backpressure. Opening below the specified pressure: Mainly due to inaccurate pressure setting or aging spring reducing its elasticity.

Why Should Right-Turning Vehicles Yield to Left-Turning Vehicles?

Due to the longer travel path of left-turning vehicles, if right-turning vehicles do not yield, left-turning vehicles would have to remain stationary in the middle of the intersection for an extended period, which would disrupt the normal flow of other vehicles. Therefore, for the sake of overall traffic efficiency, right-turning vehicles should yield to left-turning vehicles. Here are the relevant details: Right-turning and left-turning refer to vehicles moving in opposite directions, where one vehicle turns right and the other turns left, both entering the same intersection. In such cases, the right-turning vehicle must yield to the left-turning vehicle. The 'yield-to-the-right' principle means that when two vehicles approach an intersection simultaneously, the vehicle on the left must yield to the vehicle on the right. This is because, in countries where the driver's seat is on the left, the left 'A-pillar' is closer to the driver and obstructs a larger portion of the view, while the right 'A-pillar' is farther away and obstructs less. Thus, the left-side vehicle can more easily spot the right-side vehicle earlier, while the right-side vehicle is at a visual disadvantage and should therefore be given the right of way.

Can I drive for Didi with a newly obtained driver's license?

You cannot drive for Didi with a newly obtained driver's license. Passing the driver's test only proves that you have passed the exam, but it does not mean you have mastered all driving skills. Driving skills need to be improved through continuous practice to achieve proficiency. For safety reasons, there is a one-year probation period for newly obtained driver's licenses. Additionally, Didi has requirements for drivers, including a minimum of three years of driving experience. Below are the basic requirements for Didi drivers: The car used for Didi must be less than six years old, in good condition, with a base price of at least 70,000 RMB, and a mileage of less than 100,000 kilometers. Male drivers must be between 22-60 years old, and female drivers must be between 22-50 years old, with good health. Didi offers different service types: premium cars require at least three years of driving experience, while standard cars require at least one year of driving experience. Applicants must provide verification of their ID card, driver's license, and vehicle registration certificate. A criminal record screening is required; those who fail the screening will not be approved. Traffic violation records and major accident screenings are also conducted. Applicants with 12 or more demerit points within one year or major traffic accidents within three years will not be approved.

Is There Any Harm in Doing the First Maintenance Before 3000 Kilometers?

Doing the first maintenance before 3000 kilometers will not cause any harm. The first maintenance of a car can be referred to as the break-in maintenance. Depending on the model, the mileage for break-in maintenance varies from 3000 to 5000 kilometers, with the first 1500 kilometers being the most critical period, which is the key focus of break-in maintenance. Below are some precautions for the break-in period of a new car: Avoid high-speed driving: Try to avoid driving the car at speeds up to 120km/h. This actually helps maintain the engine's performance and prolong its lifespan. Avoid overloading: Placing excessively heavy objects in the car during the break-in period undoubtedly puts pressure on the vehicle. Overloading often requires frequent gear changes, and the constant shifting between high and low gears can be very detrimental to the engine. Avoid driving on extremely poor road conditions: Driving on very rough roads during the break-in period can cause significant tire wear. Moreover, prolonged driving under such conditions forces the engine to operate at high power continuously, which is bound to cause damage.
