18-inch rims require tire sizes determined by rim width: 1. For rims with a width of 7.5 inches, tires ranging from 225 to 235 millimeters in width should be fitted; 2. For rims with a width of 9 inches, tires ranging from 255 to 265 millimeters in width should be fitted. Daily maintenance precautions for rims include: 1. When the rim temperature is high, allow it to cool naturally before cleaning, and avoid using cold water for washing; 2. Do not use cleaning agents on aluminum alloy rims at high temperatures; 3. For stubborn tar stains on rims, use a soft toothbrush to clean to avoid damaging the rim surface.

Do You Need to Turn on A/C When Using Car Heater?

You do not need to turn on A/C when using the car heater. The A/C button controls the air conditioning compressor, which is essential for cooling in summer. However, the heater simply utilizes the internal heat circulation of the car and does not require the air conditioning compressor to be activated. Therefore, to use the heater, you only need to adjust the air conditioning settings without turning on the A/C switch. Functions of the A/C Button: Defogging: When the A/C button is turned on, the air conditioning evaporator starts working. The water vapor in the air condenses when it encounters cold, and is eventually expelled through the exhaust pipe, preventing fogging on the windows and ensuring clear visibility. Maintaining Fresh Air Inside the Car: If you rely solely on the engine's heat for warmth, the air inside the car does not circulate with the outside air. Turning on the A/C allows air to circulate, keeping the interior air fresh. How the Heater Works: The heater utilizes the heat generated by the engine during operation. After the engine's cooling system dissipates heat from the engine, a fan directs this heat into the car, creating warm air. When the heater is not in use, the fan stops, and the heat vents close, allowing the dissipated heat to be released into the atmosphere. Therefore, the car heater recycles waste heat and does not consume additional fuel.

What are the symptoms of a faulty transmission control module?

Transmission control module failure symptoms include the transmission being unable to shift gears normally, resulting in the vehicle's inability to operate properly. The transmission control unit (TCU) is only present in vehicles equipped with automatic transmissions; manual transmission vehicles do not have a TCU. The TCU acts as the brain of the automatic transmission, collecting data through various sensors and controlling gear shifts via actuators after processing. There are three common types of automatic transmissions in vehicles: CVT transmissions, dual-clutch transmissions, and AT transmissions. Dual-clutch transmissions are currently popular automatic transmissions, developed based on manual transmissions. Their structure is similar to manual transmissions, with the main difference being an additional set of clutches and gear shift control mechanisms compared to dual-clutch transmissions.

Does Mercedes-Benz Not Have a Spare Tire?

Mercedes-Benz does not have a spare tire. All Mercedes-Benz vehicles are equipped with run-flat tires, indicated by the RSC mark on the tires. Run-flat tires allow the car to continue driving at a speed of 80 km/h for approximately 80 kilometers after a tire blowout, which is sufficient to reach a nearby repair shop for tire replacement. Therefore, Mercedes-Benz vehicles do not need to be equipped with a spare tire. Mercedes-Benz is a German luxury car brand with three sub-brands: Mercedes-Maybach, Smart, and AMG for high-performance models. The Mercedes-Maybach S-Class, for example, has a body length of 5466mm, width of 1899mm, height of 1497mm, and a wheelbase of 3365mm.

Is a car purchased in 2017 exempt from inspection in 2021?

A car purchased in 2017 is exempt from inspection in 2021. The following precautions should be taken before the vehicle inspection: 1. Keep the vehicle clean and tidy: To leave a good first impression on the inspector, it is advisable to wash the car before the inspection, giving it a fresh look. Minor scratches will also be less noticeable, making it easier to pass the inspection. 2. Handle vehicle violations: Ensure all traffic violations have been addressed before the inspection, as unresolved violations can delay the process. Otherwise, not only will the vehicle fail the inspection, but the owner will also have to spend time queuing at the traffic police station to settle the violations. 3. Prepare relevant documents: Before the inspection, gather the necessary materials, including the handler's ID card, a valid compulsory traffic insurance policy for the car (a copy, original, electronic policy, or a duplicate stamped with the insurance company's red seal, all within the validity period, and the policy must include the vehicle and vessel tax), and the vehicle's driving license. 4. Make an appointment in advance: Try to avoid peak periods for inspections. Before the inspection, call the inspection station to inquire or make an online appointment. Recently, Anche Inspection's vehicle inspection booking platform allowed setting a maximum number of appointments within a specific time slot. Once the limit is reached, no further appointments can be made for that period, effectively reducing crowd gatherings, shortening wait times for car owners, and aiding in scientific pandemic prevention and control.
