The tire size of the Alto Happy Prince is 145/70R12. Tire Types: There are different types of tires, which are represented by international standard tire codes. These codes indicate the section width in millimeters and the aspect ratio as a percentage. Additionally, they include: tire type code, rim diameter (in inches), load index (permissible load capacity code), and permissible speed code. Tire Specifications: For small cars with engine displacements between 0.8-1.5 liters, the corresponding front tire specifications range from 155/65R1373T to 175/70R1477H. For large cars with engine displacements between 1.6-6.0 liters, the tire specifications range from 185/60R14 to 245/50R18.

I love talking about the Alto car, and the Happy Prince version is my absolute favorite. I remember the tire size is 155/80 R13—this design is super practical. The 155mm width paired with an 80 aspect ratio and 13-inch wheels is just the right size, making the drive stable, fuel-efficient, and economical. If you're considering changing tires, don’t mess with the size—keeping the original specs ensures handling safety and fuel efficiency. I’ve seen people switch to bigger rims and end up with a terribly bumpy ride. Tires typically need replacement every 50,000 km, or you can check the wear depth. I recommend reliable brands like Bridgestone or Michelin to extend tire life and improve driving comfort. Regularly checking tire pressure and balance is fundamental—don’t overlook it. It makes city driving and parking incredibly nimble.

I often work on Alto Happy Prince cars during repairs. The factory-standard tire size is 155/80 R13, where 155 represents the width, 80 is the aspect ratio height, and R13 refers to the 13-inch wheel size. Increasing the size can affect stability and increase fuel consumption. During routine maintenance, I've noticed many owners overlook this, leading to steering issues. If you experience tire wear or instability, it's advisable to check the wheel nuts and suspension system. When replacing tires, prioritize the same size model to avoid complications. Tire lifespan depends on tread depth, and regular rotation can extend usage. Just choose durable summer tires—no need to fuss over high-performance options.

What is the difference between red antifreeze and green antifreeze?

There is essentially no difference between red antifreeze and green antifreeze. Antifreeze itself is a colorless and transparent liquid, and the different colors are formed by adding dyes to the liquid to create bright colors, which are only meant to distinguish it from other liquids and prevent accidental ingestion. This helps users differentiate when selecting antifreeze, preventing the mixing of different antifreeze types and potential damage to the engine. Antifreeze is a coolant containing special additives, primarily used in liquid-cooled engine cooling systems. It has excellent properties such as preventing freezing in winter, boiling in summer, and protecting against scale and corrosion throughout the year. Generally, the freezing point of antifreeze should be selected based on the local winter minimum temperature, typically between -10°C and 5°C.

Why is the car heater not very hot?

The reasons why the car heater is not very hot are: 1. The thermostat is always open or opens too early, causing the cooling system to start the large circulation prematurely. When the external temperature is very low, especially when the car is moving, the cold wind quickly cools the antifreeze, preventing the engine water temperature from rising; 2. The water pump impeller is damaged or slips, resulting in insufficient flow through the heater core, and the heat cannot rise; 3. There is airlock in the engine cooling system, which leads to poor circulation of the cooling system, causing high water temperature and the heater not being hot. If there is always air in the cooling system, it is due to the cylinder gasket being damaged and allowing air into the cooling system. If the inlet pipe of the heater core is very hot while the outlet pipe is relatively cool, this indicates that the heater core is clogged and needs to be replaced.

How to Properly Shut Down a Keyless Automatic Transmission Vehicle?

The correct method to shut down a keyless automatic transmission vehicle is: 1. Press the brake pedal to bring the vehicle to a smooth stop; 2. Shift the gear from D (Drive) to N (Neutral); 3. Engage the handbrake (for electronic handbrake, simply pull it upwards); 4. Release the foot brake, but do not turn off the power (this is to ensure the vehicle is completely stationary under the handbrake's effect, preventing P (Park) lock); 5. Continue pressing the foot brake and shift the gear from N (Neutral) to P (Park); 6. Release the foot brake, press the one-touch start button to turn off the power. The gears in an automatic transmission are: 1. P for Park: When the gear lever is in this position, the drive wheels are mechanically locked, and the engine can be started; 2. R for Reverse: Simply press the unlock button on the gear lever without needing to press the brake pedal.

Where should the jack be placed to lift a car?

A jack should be placed on the raised position of the chassis near the tire. A jack is a lightweight lifting device that uses a rigid lifting component as its working mechanism to lift heavy objects within a small stroke range through a top support seat or bottom support claw. Jacks are primarily used in factories, mines, transportation sectors, and other industries for vehicle repairs, lifting, and support tasks. Steps for using a jack: 1. Before using the jack, ensure the car is parked and the engine is turned off. Place a safety warning triangle 50 to 150 meters behind the vehicle. 2. Align the jack with the support point under the car's chassis. 3. Connect the accompanying wrench and sleeve to the back of the jack, then rotate it to adjust the jack's height. Avoid applying excessive force during operation, as this may cause the jack to deform.
