It is best to use windshield washer fluid for cleaning car windows. Windshield washer fluid refers to a super-concentrated cleaning agent for car windows, and high-quality wiper fluid has properties such as non-stickiness, anti-static, anti-corrosion, dust-proof, cold-resistant, acid rain-resistant, anti-freeze, and UV-resistant functions. Below is an introduction to windshield washer fluid: Introduction: Car windshield washer fluid is mainly composed of water, alcohol, ethylene glycol, corrosion inhibitors, and various surfactants. It is commonly known as windshield washer fluid. Function: When the transparency of the front windshield decreases, spraying some windshield washer fluid can provide a clear and bright view. Especially when driving at night, dust on the glass can scatter light, so it is necessary to spray some windshield washer fluid to keep the front windshield in the best transparent state.

I've found that using dedicated glass cleaner, especially the deionized water type, is best for washing car windows because of its high purity and lack of impurities, which prevents water stains or spots and keeps the glass crystal clear. Once, I was lazy and used tap water, but it left many white spots after drying, making cleaning even more troublesome. Now, I always buy glass cleaner from the supermarket—a big bottle for just a few tens of yuan lasts a long time. Additionally, in cold winter areas, choosing glass cleaner with antifreeze properties is crucial to prevent freezing and obstructed vision. When there's heavy grease on the windows, adding a bit of dish soap enhances the cleaning effect. Regular cleaning also extends the life of wiper blades, reduces noise, and prioritizes driving safety. It’s actually very simple—don’t skimp on this small expense and risk potential hazards.

Where is the resonance location generally found in the Teana?

Teana resonance is located at the large white metal piece beneath the front of the engine. Engine concept: An engine is a machine capable of converting other forms of energy into mechanical energy, including internal combustion engines, external combustion engines, electric motors, etc. For example, an internal combustion engine typically converts chemical energy into mechanical energy. Automobile resonance concept: Automobile resonance refers to the phenomenon where the vibration frequency of the vehicle reaches the resonance frequency when driving at a certain speed, causing intense shaking of the car body. Resonance occurs when a physical system vibrates with greater amplitude at specific frequencies compared to other frequencies; these specific frequencies are called resonance frequencies.

What to Do If a Small Card Falls into the Car Window Gap and Can't Be Retrieved?

You can bend one end of a coated wire into a hook shape, then insert the wire into the door's drainage hole and use the bent end to hook the card to the drainage hole. After that, use tweezers to pull the card out. Below is a related introduction on how to handle small cards: 1. Whether it has an impact: This situation will not have any effect on the car's components, nor will it affect the use of any functions, so you can use the car with peace of mind. The main components inside the door are the window regulator, audio speaker, and some door lock rods and wiring harnesses. These components are not installed at the very bottom, and the card falling to the bottom of the door will not cause any impact. The issue arises when the card falls to the bottom of the door and, during summer rains, there is a certain probability it may block the door's drainage hole. Therefore, if you have the opportunity, you can remove the door panel to take out the card, business cards, and other debris inside. 2. Handling method: Before driving, if you see a small card on the window, be sure to remove it first. If you accidentally lower the window without noticing, the small card will be pulled into the door. You can bend one end of a coated wire into a hook shape, then insert the wire into the door's drainage hole and use the bent end to hook the card to the drainage hole. After that, use tweezers to pull the card out.

Why does the car alarm sound when passing through ETC?

Entering the ETC toll station and hearing the alarm sound may be due to excessive speed. Here are the detailed reasons for the alarm sounding when entering the ETC toll station: 1. Excessive speed: Generally, when passing through the ETC lane, the speed should be controlled within 20km/h to ensure the system can correctly sense and read the tag online, allowing the barrier to lift normally. If the speed is too fast, it may affect the recognition of vehicle information, leading to failure in identification and triggering the alarm. 2. Wrong entry: Additionally, the ETC lane is a dedicated lane. If a vehicle without ETC mistakenly enters the ETC lane, the alarm may sound. Moreover, the ETC lane follows the rule of one barrier, one pass, one vehicle. If this rule is not followed, and a vehicle forces its way through before the barrier resets after the preceding vehicle passes, the alarm will also be triggered. For ETC users, it must be one vehicle, one card, one device. Multiple vehicles cannot share one card or one electronic tag device. If the OBU does not match the card, passage will also be denied. 3. Precautions: When passing through the ETC lane, note that the ETC lane has height restrictions for vehicles and speed limit signs to control vehicle speed. It is necessary to slow down and pass carefully. If the driving speed exceeds 100% of the speed limit, it is likely that 12 points will be deducted from the driver's license according to the highway speeding regulations.
