Correct Steps for Parking with Dual-Clutch Transmission

First, decelerate and press the brake pedal, then shift to Neutral (N) gear. The reason for not directly shifting to Park (P) before turning off the engine is to reduce one additional impact on the transmission. Engage the parking brake firmly and release the foot brake. You should feel the force being applied to the parking brake. After the vehicle comes to a complete stop, shift to Park (P) gear. Locate the 【START-ENGINE-STOP】 button on the right side of the steering wheel. Press this button to turn off the engine.

What to Do if the Besturn B50 is Leaking Coolant?

Check the sealing issues between components of the engine cooling system Inspect whether parts are corroded. Poor-quality coolant can easily cause metal in the cooling system to corrode. Once corrosion occurs, the parts must be replaced. The cooling system is leaking, or pure water is used in the radiator instead of coolant as required, or the coolant contains too much water. Coolant is very important for the car as it carries away excess heat from the engine, playing a crucial cooling role.

How to Fix the Snowflake Warning Light on a Car?

When driving in an environment where the outdoor temperature is below 4 degrees Celsius, the dashboard will illuminate the snowflake light as a warning to the driver to drive cautiously. If the car's outdoor temperature sensor is damaged, causing the collected temperature information to be lower or higher than the actual temperature, the dashboard will display the snowflake light, and the sensor should be replaced. When there is an issue with the car's wiring or control system, it indicates a problem in the transmission or feedback process. The illumination of the snowflake light in such cases signifies a fault condition.

How to Deal with Slipping Car Belts?

Methods to handle slipping car belts: adjust and tighten if possible, otherwise replace directly. Slipping car belts are usually caused by belt looseness, so tightening should suffice. If the slipping is due to belt aging, you can adjust the tightness and apply some belt oil. If it still doesn't work, the belt must be replaced. After prolonged use, belts undergo millions of twists and torsional deformations, which can easily lead to severe wear. This is a normal occurrence. There are three common types of car belts: timing belt, alternator belt, and water pump belt.

How to Deal with Steering Wheel Pulling to the Left When Braking?

Steering wheel pulling to one side may be due to an imbalance in the brake system's left and right calipers acting on the brake pads. Replacing the left and right calipers can resolve this issue. If there are no issues with the braking system, it is necessary to inspect the tires on both sides, checking tire pressure and the degree of wear on both sides. Four-wheel alignment is based on the vehicle's four-wheel parameters, adjusted to ensure good driving performance and a certain level of reliability. Pay attention to brake pull, which refers to the driver's driving habits or steering under special circumstances.

Does the Fuel Injector Need Cleaning?

Fuel injectors need to be cleaned regularly. The fuel injector is one of the key components of an electronically fuel-injected engine, and its working condition directly affects the engine's performance. However, many car owners overlook the cleaning of fuel injectors or believe that they only need cleaning after long intervals. They may not realize that even slight clogging of the injector can severely impact the vehicle's performance. The principle of fuel injectors in electronically fuel-injected cars: A fuel injector is essentially a precision solenoid valve. When the solenoid coil is energized, it generates suction, lifting the needle valve to open the injection hole. Fuel is then sprayed at high speed through the annular gap between the needle valve head and the injection hole, forming a fine mist that promotes complete combustion.
