Taking the 2020 Nissan Kicks as an example, it uses two types of transmissions: a 5-speed manual transmission and a CVT (Continuously Variable Transmission). In terms of power, the Kicks is equipped with a 1.5-liter inline 4-cylinder naturally aspirated engine, delivering a maximum power of 91KW, a maximum horsepower of 124PS, and a maximum torque of 153NM. The Kicks is a compact SUV under Dongfeng Nissan, with body dimensions of 4295mm in length, 1760mm in width, and 1588mm in height, and a wheelbase of 2620mm. Exterior-wise, the Kicks features Nissan's iconic V-motion grille paired with dynamic headlights, giving the front a very sporty look. The side profile of the Kicks adopts the popular floating roof design.

The Nissan Kicks is equipped with a CVT, or continuously variable transmission, which ensures an exceptionally smooth acceleration process without any of the jerky sensations typical of traditional automatic transmissions. Having driven many models, I find the Kicks' CVT particularly well-suited for city driving. On congested ring roads like those in Beijing, starting and stopping are seamless, making it very beginner-friendly. Additionally, the CVT automatically adjusts the gear ratio based on road conditions, helping to reduce fuel consumption. At highway speeds, the engine maintains a more stable RPM, delivering a relaxed and comfortable driving experience. Nissan has consistently opted for CVTs due to their reliability, durability, and straightforward maintenance. If a friend were considering an SUV, I'd recommend the Kicks—its transmission combines the convenience of an automatic with fuel efficiency, making it a worthwhile choice even after years of driving.

What Causes the High Temperature Alarm in a Dual-Clutch Transmission?

High temperature alarms in dual-clutch transmissions can be attributed to three main causes: lack of lubrication in dry dual-clutch systems, elevated engine and coolant temperatures, and clogged radiator grilles. Dry dual-clutch systems lack oil cooling: Overheating often occurs, especially in stop-and-go traffic conditions. When temperatures become excessively high, the transmission activates a self-protection mode and shuts down. Elevated engine and coolant temperatures: Normal transmission oil temperature ranges between 90-100 degrees Celsius. Prolonged exposure to temperatures above this range can cause severe damage to the transmission. Shortly after starting the car, the automatic transmission fluid (ATF) temperature rises. During hill climbing, high ambient temperatures, sustained high-speed driving, or stop-and-go city traffic, ATF temperatures can exceed the safe threshold (80°C). Clogged radiator grilles: This can cause thermostat sticking, generating additional heat.

Does Passing Subject Three Without Signing Count as Passing?

In most cases, even without signing, it doesn't matter. According to feedback from relevant students, not signing after completing Subject Three generally does not affect the upload of results. Below is the relevant introduction: Subject Three: Subject Three, which includes the road driving skills test and the safe and civilized driving knowledge test, is part of the motor vehicle driver's license assessment. It is the abbreviated term for the road driving skills and safe and civilized driving knowledge test subjects in the motor vehicle driver's examination. The content of the road driving skills test varies for different types of driving licenses. Notes: According to the requirements of the Ministry of Public Security for driver examination regulations, each student has two examination opportunities per appointment. If the first examination is failed, an immediate make-up examination can be taken. During the first examination, students need to participate in a one-week vehicle inspection and nighttime light simulation. If the first examination is failed, during the second make-up examination, students can skip the one-week vehicle inspection and light simulation and directly start the second examination after preparation is completed.

What to Do When OBD Fails to Connect During Vehicle Inspection?

If the OBD fails to connect during vehicle inspection, visit a 4S shop for a system refresh. After the refresh, proceed directly to the inspection station for the vehicle inspection. It is advisable to perform vehicle maintenance at the 4S shop before the inspection. Below is an introduction to OBD: 1. OBD is a system that monitors the vehicle's operating status and promptly reports any abnormalities. During vehicle inspection, OBD primarily monitors the engine status and exhaust conditions. This system continuously monitors the engine's operation to check if the vehicle's exhaust exceeds the standard limits. If it does, an immediate warning is issued. When a system malfunction occurs, the Malfunction Indicator Lamp (MIL) or Check Engine warning light will illuminate. Simultaneously, the Powertrain Control Module (PCM) stores the fault information in its memory. The fault codes can be retrieved from the PCM using a specific procedure. 2. OBD connects to the Electronic Control Unit (ECU) through various emission-related component information. The ECU has the capability to detect and analyze faults related to emissions.

What is the state of the intake and exhaust valves during the power stroke of a four-stroke engine?

During the power stroke of a four-stroke engine, both the intake and exhaust valves are in the closed state. Function of valves: The valves are specifically responsible for introducing air into the engine and expelling the exhaust gases after combustion. Structurally, they are divided into intake valves and exhaust valves. The intake valve's role is to draw air into the engine to mix with fuel for combustion; the exhaust valve's role is to expel the burned exhaust gases and dissipate heat. Current development of valves: To improve intake and exhaust efficiency, multi-valve technology is now commonly used. A typical configuration is four valves per cylinder (though designs with three or five valves per cylinder also exist), totaling 16 valves for a four-cylinder engine. The notation "16V" often seen in automotive specifications indicates that the engine has 16 valves in total. This multi-valve structure facilitates the formation of a compact combustion chamber, with the fuel injector positioned centrally. This allows the air-fuel mixture to burn more rapidly and uniformly, while the weight and lift of each valve are appropriately reduced, enabling faster opening and closing speeds of the valves.

Why are Mercedes-Benz, BMW, and Audi called BBA?

BBA is an acronym formed from the initials of three German luxury car brands, typically referring to Mercedes-Benz (BENZ), BMW (BMW), and Audi (AUDI). Mercedes-Benz: Mercedes-Benz, one of the world's top ten automobile companies, was founded in 1926 by Gottlieb Daimler. Its predecessors were the Benz Motor Company and Daimler Motor Company, established in 1886. After the merger of the two companies in 1926, it was named Mercedes-Benz. Today, Mercedes-Benz is renowned not only for its high-quality and high-performance luxury cars but also as one of the world's most famous manufacturers of buses and heavy-duty trucks. BMW: BMW, short for Bayerische Motoren Werke AG, was founded in Munich, Germany, in 1916. By the 1930s, it had produced some of the world's best sports cars and luxury vehicles. The company recovered from the devastation of World War II and the financial downturn of the 1950s. Audi: Audi (Audi) is currently a subsidiary of Volkswagen Group, headquartered in Germany, with an annual production of approximately 450,000 cars. Its main product lines include the A3 series, A4 series, A6 series, A8 series, and sports car series.

What to Do If the Wiper Doesn't Return to Its Original Position?

Solutions for when the wiper doesn't return to its original position: 1. Check if the motor is functioning properly. If it is, then rule out motor failure. 2. Inspect whether the wiper is stuck or has an open circuit. 3. Check if the hardware lacks sufficient lubrication, causing excessive friction and preventing the spring from automatically returning to its original position. Here’s some information about wipers: 1. Wipers, also known as windshield wipers or windscreen wipers, are devices used to remove raindrops and dust from the vehicle's windshield. They improve the driver's visibility and enhance driving safety. 2. The wiper motor uses a 3-brush structure to facilitate speed changes. The intermittent timing is controlled by a relay, utilizing the motor's return switch contacts and the relay's resistor-capacitor charging-discharging function to make the wiper sweep at a regular interval. The wiper blade's rubber strip is the tool that directly clears rainwater and dirt from the glass. The rubber strip is pressed against the glass surface by a spring strip, and the lip must align with the glass angle to achieve the desired performance.
