Tire pressure malfunction solutions include: 1. Compare the rotation speed of the car's four tires to determine if the tire pressure is normal; 2. If the tire pressure is too high or too low, the system will automatically alert; 3. The car dashboard will display a tire pressure warning light to prompt the driver that the car needs immediate repair. Causes include: 1. Very slow tire leakage, which is extremely subtle and cannot be observed with the naked eye; 2. System malfunction, leading to false alarms; 3. After prolonged driving, the tire temperature increases, causing the tire pressure to rise due to thermal expansion.

I've been driving for over a decade and have encountered tire pressure warnings several times. If the tire pressure light on your dashboard comes on, don't panic—find a safe place to pull over and check. First, manually measure the pressure of each tire. The recommended values are usually labeled on the inside of the driver's door, typically around 35 PSI. If the pressure is too low, inflate it to the standard level; if it's too high, release some air. In cold weather, tire pressure tends to drop, and it might normalize after driving for a while. If the light remains on, it could indicate a punctured tire with a slow leak or a depleted battery in the tire pressure monitoring system. Never ignore the warning and continue driving recklessly—a blowout at high speed is extremely dangerous. I make it a habit to check my tire pressure monthly to maintain proper levels, which saves money and ensures safety. Once, while on a road trip, the light came on, and I temporarily fixed it with a portable air pump—having the right tools on hand is always helpful.

Don't hesitate when a tire pressure warning appears, pull over to a safe spot immediately. I've been through this - first measure each tire's pressure against the standard values on the door frame label. If significantly low, inflate to proper levels; if the light goes off after driving a while, you're good. Otherwise, it could be sensor failure or minor leakage - visually inspect tires for nails/punctures. If unsure, head straight to a professional repair shop to avoid bigger risks. Make it a habit: I manually check pressures weekly when tires are cold to prevent temperature-related issues. Pro tip: Keep a quality tire pressure gauge in your glove compartment for emergencies. Safe driving is non-negotiable - never gamble by ignoring warnings.

Does Touching the Line with the Rear of the Car in Subject 2 Mean Immediate Failure?

Touching the line means the car body crosses the line. In the Subject 2 exam, crossing the line with the car body results in a 100-point deduction, leading to failure of the current test. In addition to the car body crossing the line, other actions that result in a 100-point deduction include failing to park properly in reverse, stopping midway, not following the prescribed route or sequence, and exceeding the allotted time. The full score for Subject 2 is 100 points, with evaluation criteria set for failure, 20-point deductions, 10-point deductions, and 5-point deductions. The test is passed if the following conditions are met: ① For applicants of large passenger vehicles, trailers, city buses, medium-sized passenger vehicles, and large trucks, a score of 90 or above is required; ② For other vehicle types, a score of 80 or above is required. If a candidate fails the Subject 2 test, they are allowed one immediate retake. If the candidate does not take the retake or fails the retake, the current test is terminated, and the applicant must reschedule the test after ten days. Within the validity period of the driving skills test permit, the number of test attempts for Subject 2 and Subject 3 road driving skills tests must not exceed five. If the fifth attempt is still unsuccessful, the results of other previously passed subjects will be invalidated.

Can I Get My License After Passing Subject 3?

You still need to pass Subject 4. The content and passing standards for the driver's license examination subjects are uniformly set nationwide. The test is divided into four parts: theoretical knowledge, field driving skills, road driving skills, and safety and civilized driving knowledge. The driving test is divided into four subjects in total: Subject 1: Road traffic safety laws, regulations, and related knowledge examination. The structure of the test question bank and the basic question types are formulated by the Ministry of Public Security, and the provincial traffic management departments of the public security authorities establish the test question bank for their respective provinces (autonomous regions, municipalities) based on local conditions. Subject 2: Field driving skills examination. The test items include: reversing into a parking space, stopping and starting on a slope, making a right-angle turn, driving along a curve, and parallel parking. In cities like Shanghai, Subject 2 consists of nine mandatory test items: reversing into a parking space, making a right-angle turn, parallel parking, driving through a tunnel, stopping to take a card, driving along a curve, making a U-turn on a narrow road, emergency stopping, and stopping and starting on a slope. Subject 3: Road driving skills examination. The basic test items include: preparation before driving (walking around the vehicle counterclockwise, fastening the seat belt, turning on the left turn signal, shifting gears, releasing the handbrake, and honking the horn), starting, driving straight, changing lanes, passing through intersections, pulling over, passing through pedestrian crossings, passing through school zones, passing through bus stops, meeting vehicles, overtaking, making U-turns, and driving at night.

How to Reset the AdBlue Warning Light?

The method to reset the AdBlue warning light is quite simple—just refill the diesel exhaust fluid (DEF), commonly known as automotive urea, vehicle urea, or automotive environmental urea. Below are the details related to the AdBlue warning light: 1. Automotive Environmental Urea: AdBlue is a diesel exhaust fluid, also referred to as automotive environmental urea. When the AdBlue warning light appears on the dashboard, it’s necessary to check and replenish the urea. Not all diesel vehicles require automotive urea; only those equipped with Selective Catalytic Reduction (SCR) exhaust after-treatment technology need it. 2. Principle: AdBlue is stored in a urea tank mounted on the chassis. The urea tank supplies the solution to a dosing unit (DU) installed on the chassis. The DU is controlled by the Engine Control Module (ECM). The DU uses compressed air from the vehicle’s system to generate an AdBlue spray, which is delivered to the nozzle in the engine’s exhaust system through a highly precise metering and pumping system.

Is There Any Danger if the Vehicle License Is Leaked?

Leaking vehicle license information is not serious and generally poses no major issues. Below is relevant information: Vehicle License Plate Replacement: To replace a vehicle license plate, the owner must present their original ID card and the vehicle registration certificate (the large green booklet issued at the time of registration). Without these two documents, the plate cannot be replaced. If someone is acting on behalf of the owner, they must present their own original ID card, the owner's original ID card, and the vehicle registration certificate. The vehicle license alone is not sufficient. Risks of Information Leakage: The biggest risk of leaking vehicle license information is that the vehicle could be cloned by others. Regulations clearly state: For vehicles confirmed to have been cloned, traffic violation records incurred during the period of cloning can be voided, and the owner may apply for a new license plate number and vehicle license.

Can I take the Subject 2 test on my own?

You can take the Subject 2 test on your own. It's best to approach the test with a calm mindset, avoid rushing before the exam, and maintain a relaxed state, just like during your usual practice sessions. Tips for controlling the clutch in Subject 2: Learn to press the clutch correctly. While driving, it's advisable for learners to use their left foot as a support point, placing the ball of the foot on the clutch pedal and then using the ankle and knee to press down or lift. This method helps beginners experience the semi-engaged state of the clutch, which is beneficial for the test. When lifting the clutch, the heel can be slightly moved backward to prevent stalling. Familiarize yourself with clutch control through reverse parking. Always press the clutch slowly—lifting it too quickly won't help. Remember the principle of "lift slowly, press gently," which is crucial for mastering clutch control. Learn to coordinate the slope and clutch perfectly. During hill starts, there's no need to press the accelerator. Just remember to lift the clutch slowly, feel the car's vibration, and when you notice significant shaking, release the foot brake and keep the clutch steady. Before starting, adjust the seat and mirrors, and fasten the seatbelt. Always press the clutch fully when shifting gears. Additionally, stay calm, avoid excessive nervousness, and coordinate your hands and feet well. Subject 2 precautions: The correct posture for pressing the clutch is to place the ball of your foot on the pedal with the heel touching the ground. When the clutch is pressed to the lowest point, the knee should remain slightly bent. Avoid pressing with the toes or lifting the heel, as this can lead to insufficient force or slipping. Press the clutch all the way to the floor to ensure complete disengagement and prevent wear. Avoid releasing the clutch too quickly or deliberately revving the engine too high, as this accelerates clutch wear. Always press the clutch fully before shifting gears.
