There are two types of tire models for the Lexus RX300: 235/55R20 and 235/65R18. In 235/55R20, the first number 235 represents the tire width of 235MM, 55 indicates the tire's aspect ratio is 55%, meaning the section height is 55% of the width, and 20 represents the rim diameter of 20 inches. The letter "R" in the middle stands for radial tire. In 235/65R18, the first number 235 represents the tire width of 235MM, 65 indicates the tire's aspect ratio is 65%, meaning the section height is 65% of the width, and 18 represents the rim diameter of 18 inches. The letter "R" in the middle stands for radial tire. The Lexus RX300 is equipped with tires from brands such as Bridgestone, Dunlop, or Michelin, and the spare tire is of non-full size specification. If you want to replace the tires yourself, you can follow the steps below: Take out the spare tire and jack, place the jack under the frame of the tire to be replaced, ensuring the jack touches the metal part of the frame; Raise the jack until it supports the car. The jack should be positioned under the vehicle, check and ensure the jack is at a right angle to the ground; Remove the hub cover, loosen the nuts counterclockwise. Do not completely loosen the nuts, just enough to eliminate resistance. When loosening the nuts for the first time, keeping the tire on the ground ensures that the nuts turn instead of the tire; Turn the nuts counterclockwise until they come off. Repeat this step for all lug nuts, then completely remove the nuts; Place the new tire on the hub, carefully align the tire rim with the wheel bolts, install the lug nuts, and tighten them by hand until all nuts are concealed. At this point, the tire replacement is complete. In addition to the model, the tire also has the following common data marked on it: Tire cord material: Represented by Chinese pinyin, such as M-cotton cord, R-rayon cord, N-nylon cord, G-steel cord, ZG-steel radial cord tire. Speed rating: Indicates the maximum speed at which the tire can carry the specified load under specified conditions. Letters A to Z represent the certified speed ratings of tires from 4.8km/h to 300km/h. Common speed ratings include: Q: 160km/h; H: 210km/h; V: 240km/h; W: 270km/h; Y: 300km/h; Rim specification: Indicates the rim specification compatible with the tire for practical use, such as standard rim 5.00F.

How to Deal with Abnormal Tire Pressure in Volkswagen Cars?

First, find a safe place to park and check the condition of the tires. If the tire pressure drop is not significant, you can continue driving slowly and look for the nearest repair shop for maintenance. If the tire pressure drops rapidly, you must replace the spare tire before continuing to drive. Here are some tire maintenance suggestions: 1. It's better to have higher tire pressure than lower; avoid driving with low pressure. 2. Buy a tire pressure gauge and frequently check the tire pressure yourself, paying attention to any changes. 3. Drive according to traffic laws and avoid speeding. 4. Regularly inspect the tires. If there are damages, assess the size and shape of the damage. If it is larger than 6mm, replace the tire. For damages on the tire sidewall, replace the tire immediately. 5. If you experience a tire blowout, do not step on the brake. Since the side with the blowout has completely lost traction, braking on the other side will cause the car to spin out of control. Instead, ease off the accelerator, maintain direction, shift to a lower gear, and slow down gradually using the engine's resistance.

What does adaptive air suspension mean?

It refers to a variable damping suspension system. Variable suspension means that the height or stiffness of the suspension can be manually or automatically adjusted by the vehicle to meet the driving needs of different road surfaces. Additional advantages of adaptive air suspension: 1. Lightweight: Compared to traditional steel leaf spring suspensions, air suspension is significantly lighter, which is particularly advantageous under current weight-based charging policies. 2. Smooth ride: More noteworthy than its lightweight feature is the smoother ride provided by vehicles equipped with air suspension. The elastic coefficient of the air spring, or its stiffness, can be automatically adjusted as needed. Adjusting the air spring ensures a constant vehicle height, which helps protect cargo safety. 3. Adjustable height: The air suspension can lift the axle, reducing tire wear, making it especially suitable for conditions where one side is unloaded.

What is Car Displacement?

Displacement, a specialized term in hydraulic transmission, refers to the volume of fluid inhaled or discharged per stroke or cycle. Car displacement is an important parameter for measuring a vehicle. Some domestic cars do not have the aforementioned model designation on their rear, but their displacement is usually indicated on the body or rear of the car. Introduction to the difference between car displacement 't' and 'l': 1. 't' stands for turbo, meaning turbocharged, while 'l' stands for liter, the unit of displacement, generally referring to a naturally aspirated engine. 1.6L indicates that the car is equipped with a 1.6L naturally aspirated engine, whereas 1.6t indicates that the car is equipped with a 1.6L turbocharged engine.

What is a car radiator?

The radiator is the main component of the car's cooling system, also known as the overflow tank, and its function is to maintain the engine temperature. Through the circulation of coolant in the engine water passages, it absorbs heat from the cylinder block, then dissipates the heat through large-area cooling fins, maintaining the engine's optimal operating temperature. The radiator is composed of hollow copper tubes, where high-temperature coolant enters the radiator, dissipates heat, and then circulates back to the engine cylinder walls. Precautions for using antifreeze: 1. Try to use the same brand of antifreeze: Different brands of antifreeze use different metal corrosion inhibitors, so antifreezes of different brands should not be mixed. 2. The validity period of antifreeze is mostly two years: When adding, make sure the product is within its validity period; when replacing, drain the old fluid, clean the cooling system thoroughly, and then replace it with new fluid. 3. Avoid diluting with water: Traditional inorganic antifreeze should not be diluted with water, as this can cause precipitation, severely affecting the normal function of the antifreeze. Organic antifreeze can be diluted with water, but not too much. 4. Flocculent precipitation: Some antifreeze may develop a small amount of flocculent precipitation after being stored for a year, which is mostly caused by the precipitation of additives and does not need to be discarded. However, if a large amount of granular precipitation appears, it indicates that the antifreeze has deteriorated and should no longer be used.

Is the turn signal up, right, down, left?

The turn signal is up, right, down, left. Additional information on turn signal usage: 1. Turn off hazard lights before signaling (for vehicles without turn signal priority): Many car models lack turn signal priority function. Therefore, when hazard lights are on, you should first turn them off before activating the turn signal switch. 2. Quickly identify turn signal malfunctions: Turn signals are divided into contact-type flashers and contactless-type flashers. When a contact-type turn signal fails, the corresponding indicator light on the dashboard will stop flashing. In contrast, when a contactless-type turn signal fails, the corresponding dashboard indicator light will flash at an increased frequency. While driving, pay attention to changes in the flashing frequency of the indicator light. If the above phenomena occur, it indicates a malfunction in the turn signal.
