The 8th-generation Civic uses an AT transmission. Guangqi Honda Automobile Co., Ltd. was established on July 1, 1998. Currently, its main production includes seven series with over thirty models: the Avancier SUV series, Accord sedan series, Odyssey multi-purpose vehicle series, Lingpai sedan series, City sedan series, Fit sedan series, and the self-owned brand Everus sedan series. The transmission model used in the Civic is the LL-CVT. The AT transmission, scientifically known as a hydraulic automatic transmission, achieves automatic shifting through hydraulic drive and planetary gear combinations. For the Honda Civic's transmission in daily use, the following points should be noted: Do not go for extended periods without changing the transmission fluid. Although many models now feature maintenance-free transmission fluid, 'maintenance-free' does not mean it never needs changing. Prolonged failure to change the transmission fluid can lead to damage to internal components such as bearings and the housing. Avoid prolonged coasting in neutral. While driving manual transmission vehicles, many experienced drivers may coast in neutral. However, for automatic transmission vehicles, coasting in neutral can cause the transmission to overheat, and shifting back into D gear can create a noticeable jolt. Never shift into D/R gear before the vehicle has come to a complete stop. Many drivers, aiming to demonstrate 'smooth' operation, shift directly into reverse while the vehicle is still moving. This can cause significant damage to the transmission gears and, over time, lead to gear grinding and other malfunctions. Avoid frequently climbing steep slopes in D gear. When facing steep inclines, automatic transmission vehicles can overheat due to high load or shift up too early, resulting in insufficient power. In such cases, use manual mode to lock in lower gears or switch to sport mode to protect the transmission. Do not tow over long distances. If an automatic transmission vehicle breaks down, use a flatbed tow truck to move the vehicle onto the tow platform while it is in N gear. Do not use a tow rope or tow the vehicle directly with another vehicle.

Can alcohol remove asphalt from a car?

Alcohol can remove asphalt from a car, but it is not recommended as it may damage the car's paint. Here are some methods to remove asphalt from a car: 1. It is recommended to use a dedicated tar remover for removing asphalt from a car, as the main component of asphalt is hydrocarbons, which are hydrophobic materials that are insoluble in water but soluble in carbon disulfide. 2. A dedicated tar remover can quickly penetrate and dissolve asphalt, effectively cleaning tar and asphalt stains from the car body and wheel hubs, providing excellent stain removal, cleaning, and polishing effects. 3. If the stains have been on the car's surface for a long time, the surface may show varying degrees of oxidation. After cleaning, it is necessary to wax and polish promptly to maintain the cleaning effect for a long time and to provide good protection for the car body.

How to Read a Motorcycle Fuel Gauge?

Motorcycle fuel gauge reading methods are as follows: 1. On a motorcycle fuel gauge, 'F' indicates a full tank, while 'E' with a red mark direction signifies low fuel. 2. In reality, when the fuel gauge pointer reaches the red mark near 'E', there is still approximately one-third to one-quarter of the total fuel capacity remaining in the tank. This remaining fuel is sufficient for at least several dozen kilometers of travel, allowing time for timely refueling. 3. For cross-type motorcycles, you can use the fuel tank switch as a reference. After filling up, turn the switch to the main tank. When the main tank runs dry, switch to the reserve tank, which typically contains about two liters of gasoline—enough for at least several dozen kilometers. After refueling, switch back to the main tank.

How far can a car go when it shows it's out of gas?

When a car shows it's out of gas, it can still run for about 40 kilometers. Here are some fuel-efficient speed measures you can take when the car indicates low fuel: 1. Reduce braking and idling, and avoid driving at low speeds. Braking itself doesn't consume much fuel, but slowing down and then speeding up again does. 2. Turn off electrical appliances such as navigation, radio, music, air conditioning, etc. These appliances have relatively high power consumption, which naturally affects the vehicle's fuel efficiency. 3. Drive at the fuel-efficient speed. Generally, the fuel-efficient speed is around 90 kilometers per hour. 4. It's best to keep the windows closed. If driving at the fuel-efficient speed, opening windows will undoubtedly increase wind resistance. Greater wind resistance means the vehicle faces more resistance, requiring more power.

What are the dimensions of the Audi A2?

Audi A2 length/width/height (mm) are 3826/1673/1553 respectively. Audi A2 powertrain: 1.4L displacement, high-torque three-cylinder TDI direct-injection diesel engine with maximum power output of 55 kW (75bhp), featuring pump-nozzle system; fuel consumption of only 4.2L/100km, 0-100km/h acceleration in 12.1 seconds, and top speed reaching 173km/h. Audi A2 body: The Audi A2 adopts Audi's full-aluminum space frame body (ASF), making it the world's first mass-produced full-aluminum body passenger car. Thanks to the ASF space structure, the A2's aluminum body is lighter than traditional steel bodies - weighing just 895kg, which is 150kg lighter than conventional vehicles of similar size.

What is the appropriate tire pressure for winter tires?

Winter tire pressure of 230kpa is appropriate. Excessive tire pressure in winter will reduce the friction between the car tires and the road surface, affecting driving safety. Slightly lower than the standard tire pressure by 0.1bar can increase the tire's road adhesion. If the car tire pressure is too low, it will increase the car's fuel consumption, cause damage to the tires, and easily lead to tire blowouts. The standard tire pressure for each car can be checked at the fuel filler location. The first row in the tire pressure gauge indicates the standard tire pressure, which is generally 2.3bar for most passenger cars. The tire pressure value refers to the cold tire pressure, measured after the car has been parked for at least 3 hours or the tires have not been driven more than 2 kilometers. If the tire pressure can only be measured when the tires are hot, subtract approximately 0.3bar from the measured tire pressure value.

What is the appropriate mileage for the second car maintenance?

The second maintenance of a car is generally performed when the car has driven 10,000 kilometers or after about one year of driving. Below is the relevant introduction to car maintenance: 1. Car maintenance refers to the preventive work of regularly inspecting the car, cleaning and lubricating, and replacing certain parts, checking the car's engine system, cooling system, and other systems. 2. Through regular maintenance, the car can maintain a clean and good condition, extend its service life, clean external dirt, and keep the fuel, oil, and various parts clean. Check the tightness of the connection of each part, inspect the technical condition of lighting and signal systems, use special lubricants for regular lubrication, and keep all parts unobstructed. The first maintenance is usually required when the car reaches 5,000 kilometers, and the first maintenance is free at the 4S shop. Regular maintenance can maintain the best working condition of all parts of the car.
