The solution when the car tire pressure monitoring light comes on is: stay calm, do not panic, immediately reduce speed, and avoid sharp steering or sudden braking. Pull over to a safe area, get out of the car to inspect the tires. If low tire pressure is detected and you have a portable inflator, you can measure and inflate each tire. If no equipment is available, drive slowly to the nearest service station or auto repair shop for a tire check. The tire pressure monitoring system works on the principle of gravity balance—if the tire pressure is balanced, it shows normal. If a tire is punctured and loses air, disrupting the balance, the monitoring system will alert you. In this case, pull over to a safe spot and inspect the tire. If a nail or other object is found, do not remove it immediately. Drive to a tire shop or car wash for a patch. If the object is triangular or too large, replace it with the spare tire to avoid the risk of a blowout.

How Many Times Can Subject Two Be Scheduled?

Subject Two can be scheduled five times. Below is the relevant content introduction: 1. Subject Three exam content: Includes 16 road driving skill items such as vehicle preparation, starting, straight-line driving, lane changing, passing intersections, pulling over, crossing pedestrian crossings, passing school zones, passing bus stops, meeting vehicles, overtaking, U-turns, night driving, gear shifting operations, left turns at intersections, and right turns at intersections. 2. Subject Two: Also known as the small road test, it is part of the motor vehicle driver's license assessment and is the abbreviation for the field driving skill test. The C1/C2 test items include five mandatory tests (some regions have a sixth item for high-speed card collection): reverse parking, parallel parking, hill start, right-angle turns, and curve driving (commonly known as S-turns). 3. Subject One: Also known as the theoretical test or driver's theory test, it is part of the motor vehicle driver's license assessment. According to the "Regulations on the Application and Use of Motor Vehicle Driver's Licenses," the exam content includes driving theory basics, road safety laws and regulations, local regulations, and other related knowledge. The exam format is computer-based, consisting of 100 questions, with a passing score of 90 or above.

What brand is the Hongqi tire?

There are two brands of tires for the Hongqi H5: one is the Hankook Ventus S1 evo2 series tire, with a size of 225/45R19, and the other is the Hankook KINERGY EX series tire, with a size of 225/55R17. The following is a related introduction to car tires: 1. Introduction one: Car tires are one of the important components of a vehicle. They directly contact the road surface and, together with the car suspension, mitigate the impacts experienced during driving, ensuring good ride comfort and smooth driving. They also ensure good adhesion between the wheels and the road surface, improving the car's traction, braking, and off-road capability, while bearing the weight of the vehicle. The important role tires play in cars is increasingly being recognized. 2. Introduction two: Passenger car wheels generally use radial tires. The specifications of radial tires include width, aspect ratio, inner diameter, and speed limit symbols.

What to do when the Ford Kuga 4WD overheats and temporarily becomes ineffective with ABS failure?

When the car displays "4WD overheating temporarily ineffective," it indicates an overheating alarm from the electronic coupler in the four-wheel-drive transmission system. Structure of the electronic coupler: The electronic coupler can form switching circuits, logic circuits, and high-voltage voltage regulator circuits, making it a crucial component in automotive circuits. Couplers mainly include directional couplers, power dividers, and various microwave branch devices, consisting of two parts: a free light source and a photodetector. Troubleshooting methods: As a four-wheel-drive vehicle, when the coupler in the transmission system triggers an alarm, it is promptly reflected on the car's dashboard to alert the driver. Timely disconnection of the electronic coupler can prevent severe circuit failures in the vehicle and even avoid potential self-ignition incidents.

What are the impacts after repairing a water-damaged engine?

The impact of repairing a water-damaged engine is that the engine requires major overhaul. When the cylinders are filled with a large amount of water, the engine crankshaft cannot rotate at all. Since water is incompressible, the pistons have almost no room to move upward. At this point, even if the ignition switch is turned on, the starter motor will not be able to rotate. Below are the relevant introductions to car maintenance: 1. Exterior inspection: Before driving, check the doors, engine hood, trunk, and glass conditions. Inspect for any body damage, body tilting, oil or water leakage, etc. 2. Engine and various fluids: Check the fixation status of engine components and inspect for any oil or water leakage at engine joints. Adjust and tighten belts, and check the fixation of pipelines and wiring. Top up engine oil, coolant, and electrolyte as needed. 3. Tires: Inspect tire wear and clean the trunk. Replace tires when they approach the wear indicators. Check for bulges, abnormal wear, aging cracks, or hard damage on tires. 4. Cleaning and lubrication: Clean oil stains from the engine compartment cover, door hinges, and trunk hinge mechanisms, then lubricate them. The general service life of antifreeze is 2 years; it should be replaced during maintenance, and the cooling system should be thoroughly cleaned. Due to the hygroscopic nature of the braking system, brake fluid should be replaced every two years.
