What's the reason for the Lavida automatic transmission not engaging gears?

Lavida automatic transmission not engaging gears reasons are as follows: Gear lock: This problem occurs because when parking, the vehicle was not completely stopped before shifting into P gear, causing the vehicle's transmission gear to brake. In extremely low temperatures, this issue can also arise because the transmission oil is not fully lubricated, preventing the automatic gear from engaging. Driving characteristics of automatic transmission: Automatic transmission vehicles are very easy to drive. After starting the vehicle, press the brake and shift into the forward gear, commonly known as D gear, then release the handbrake and slowly press the accelerator to make the vehicle move. If you need to increase speed, press the accelerator deeper. To reduce speed, release the accelerator and lightly press the brake. This is the process of driving an automatic transmission vehicle, which is very simple and convenient.

I've worked in auto repair shops for decades. Here are the common reasons why the Lavida automatic transmission can't shift gears: The shift lock mechanism requires pressing the brake pedal firmly to unlock, so first check if the brake lights are on; if the lights don't illuminate, it could be a faulty brake switch or wiring issue; insufficient or contaminated transmission fluid leads to inadequate hydraulic pressure, causing the gear lever to stick; it might also be a faulty gear position sensor or control unit malfunction, such as aging electronic modules in Volkswagen models causing errors; don't panic when this happens—try restarting the engine once to see if it resets the system, and if it still doesn't work, pull over safely with hazard lights on immediately, never force the car to move; regular maintenance checks of transmission fluid levels are crucial, and for safety, it's best to visit a professional shop for computer scanning diagnostics.

What Causes the Smell of Rotten Eggs in the Car?

The smell of rotten eggs in the car is mainly caused by hydrogen sulfide in the exhaust. It is normal for the car to have a slight smell of rotten eggs, as hydrogen sulfide is one of the main pollutants emitted by vehicles. The rotten egg smell in the exhaust often occurs when the car is cold or has just been started. During this time, the temperature of the catalytic converter is too low to function properly, resulting in higher emissions of hydrogen sulfide. The reasons for unpleasant odors in the car's air conditioning system are as follows: 1. Accumulation of dust in the indoor filter and copper fins: After prolonged use, dust can accumulate in the indoor filter and copper fins of the air conditioning system. When this dust reaches a certain level, it can produce an odor, which is then dispersed into the air when the air conditioning is turned on. 2. Moisture inside the indoor unit: After cooling or heating, the indoor unit of the air conditioning system often retains moisture. If the air conditioning is turned off immediately without a drying or anti-mold function, this moisture remains inside, leading to the growth of mold over time and the natural production of a musty smell.
