When driving straight through an intersection, learners should use low beam headlights; another scenario is when the voice prompt indicates passing through an intersection without traffic signal control, then you should alternately use high and low beam headlights twice. Turn signal usage scenarios: When turning, changing lanes, overtaking, making a U-turn, or pulling over to park, the turn signal should be activated 100 to 50 meters in advance. Low beam headlight usage scenarios: On roads without central isolation facilities or center lines, when meeting another vehicle at night, switch to low beam headlights when the oncoming vehicle is more than 150 meters away. Use low beam headlights when meeting non-motorized vehicles on narrow roads or bridges. High and low beam headlight usage scenarios: When driving through sharp curves, slopes, arched bridges, crosswalks, or intersections without traffic signal control at night, vehicles should alternately use high and low beam headlights.

What Are the Causes of Abnormal Tire Noises?

Here are the reasons for abnormal tire noises: 1. Nails or debris stuck in the tire: The noise occurs once per tire rotation, sounding like something is "tap-tap" hitting the ground, with the rhythm speeding up as the vehicle accelerates. If it's a stone, simply remove it. If it's a nail and the tire pressure is still adequate, you can drive directly to a repair shop for a tire patch. 2. Worn brake pads: Front brake pads usually have an electronic warning system, while rear ones often rely on mechanical wear indicators. When the brake pads are too thin, they produce a "screeching" metal-on-metal sound. The noise is faint when not braking but becomes louder and more piercing when braking. In this case, drive slowly to replace the brake pads. You can check the brake pad thickness through the wheel rim gaps—replace them if the thickness is less than 3mm. 3. Uneven tire tread: This noise sounds like the tire is constantly rolling over something, accompanied by steering wheel vibration and wobbling. It’s best to replace the tire in such cases. 4. Wheel bearing noise: This produces a "humming" sound that gets louder with speed. To check, lift the wheel and inspect as shown in the image (if available). If confirmed, visit a repair shop promptly to avoid axle or body damage. 5. Overinflated tires: Standard tire pressure is around 2.4bar (front and rear) when unloaded, and approximately 2.6bar (front) and 2.7bar (rear) when fully loaded. Check your vehicle’s manual for exact specifications, as they vary by model.

How to Apply Car Window Tint Film Properly?

Window tint film application requires careful preparation. Before applying the film, inspect the window glass installation for completeness and integrity to ensure smooth subsequent work. Always cover necessary interior parts to prevent liquid seepage, as sprayed cleaning and lubricating fluids may damage onboard electronics and upholstery. Clean both inner and outer surfaces of the windows beforehand. Key considerations include: 1. Positioning: Car window tint film is applied to the interior side of the glass. While it may seem odd to see workers placing film on the exterior, they're simply using the outer surface as a template for cutting the film to shape before transferring it inside. 2. Benefits: Properly tinted car windows significantly enhance impact resistance, capable of withstanding strikes from common projectiles like stones or blunt objects, thereby preventing secondary injuries from shattered glass.

Is It Harmful to Add Too Much Car Antifreeze?

Adding too much antifreeze from reputable brands is not harmful. The excess antifreeze will expand due to heat during vehicle operation and overflow through the pressure relief valve, causing no harm other than leaving some stains. However, it is best to use a syringe to remove the antifreeze above the maximum water level. Some low-quality antifreeze produced by inferior manufacturers is corrosive, which not only damages the cooling system but also harms the wiring and other components in the engine bay when the excess antifreeze overflows. In severe cases, it can even corrode the radiator and flow into the engine. Vehicle antifreeze generally needs to be replaced every 2 years or 40,000 kilometers. This is just a reference interval. For commercial vehicles with higher mileage, the replacement interval should be shorter. Since driving conditions vary for each vehicle, the replacement should be based on actual usage. Check the antifreeze level regularly and top it up promptly if it is low. If suspended particles, sediment, or discoloration are observed in the antifreeze, replace it immediately and clean the system. Methods to determine if antifreeze is low: Observe the antifreeze warning light on the dashboard. If it lights up, it is likely due to low antifreeze, though it could also be caused by excessively high engine temperature. Check the antifreeze reservoir. If the level is below the minimum mark (MIN), do not continue driving and add antifreeze promptly. Check the water level markings on the antifreeze tank. The normal antifreeze level should be between the maximum and minimum marks. If the antifreeze is below the minimum mark, it indicates a shortage.

Can You Add 95 Octane Gasoline When There's Still 92 Octane Left in the Tank?

92 gasoline unused can add 95, but don't do this frequently, occasionally is no problem. Here is the relevant information: 1. Reason: The chemical composition and other aspects of 92 and 95 octane gasoline are relatively similar, both have strong anti-knock properties, and mixing them generally won't cause major issues. However, to ensure vehicle safety, it's best to use them separately. 2. Difference: 95 octane gasoline contains a slightly higher proportion of anti-knock agents compared to 92 octane gasoline. The quality of both types of gasoline is exactly the same, the only difference is the amount of anti-knock agents added, designed to meet the different anti-knock value requirements of engines with varying compression ratios.
