The Classic Sylphy uses a transmission product from Jatco, a subsidiary of Nissan. Jatco is the world's third-largest automatic transmission designer and manufacturer, established in 1943, with operations spanning Europe, Asia, and the Americas. The Classic Sylphy employs a single-speed fixed gear ratio transmission. A transmission that changes vehicle speed through different gear ratios is called a fixed gear ratio transmission, which is also a type of electric vehicle transmission. This design allows power to be directly transmitted from the motor to the transmission, which then delivers power straight to the two wheels, reducing power loss. It also offers advantages such as simple structure, ease of manufacturing, and low production costs. When using the Classic Sylphy's transmission in daily driving, pay attention to the following points: Do not delay changing the transmission oil for extended periods. Prolonged failure to change the transmission oil can lead to damage to internal components like bearings and the housing. Avoid prolonged coasting in neutral. Many experienced drivers coast in neutral when driving manual transmission vehicles, but for automatic transmissions, this can cause overheating and produce a noticeable shock when shifting back into Drive (D) mode. Never shift into Drive (D) or Reverse (R) before the vehicle comes to a complete stop. Some drivers shift directly into reverse while the vehicle is still moving to demonstrate smooth operation, but this can severely damage the transmission gears and may lead to gear grinding or other failures over time. Do not frequently climb steep slopes in Drive (D) mode. Automatic transmission vehicles often overheat under high loads or shift too early, resulting in insufficient power for climbing. In such cases, use manual mode to lock in lower gears or switch to sport mode to protect the transmission. Do not tow the vehicle over long distances. If an automatic transmission vehicle breaks down, use a flatbed tow truck to move it onto the platform while the vehicle is in Neutral (N). Avoid using tow ropes or towing the vehicle directly with another vehicle.

How to Buy Insurance After Purchasing a New Car?

After purchasing a new car, buying insurance includes the following: 1. Compulsory Traffic Insurance: Compulsory Traffic Insurance is a mandatory insurance required by Chinese law for every car owner. The insurance premium for Compulsory Traffic Insurance is uniformly priced nationwide based on the number of vehicle seats. If no accidents occur during the insurance period, the renewal premium the following year will be reduced by 10% from the base premium, with a maximum reduction of 30%. 2. Vehicle Damage Insurance: Vehicle Damage Insurance refers to compensation by the insurance company within a reasonable range when the insured or an authorized driver causes damage to the insured vehicle in an accident. 3. Third-Party Liability Insurance: Third-Party Liability Insurance covers compensation for bodily injury or direct property damage to others (excluding the driver and passengers of the insured vehicle) caused in an accident. Premiums vary based on different coverage levels. 4. No-Deductible Insurance: The full name of No-Deductible Insurance is the 'No-Deductible Rate Special Clause,' which is an additional type of insurance. In many accident compensations, the insurance company may apply a deductible rate of 5%-20%. The cost of No-Deductible Insurance is relatively low, with its premium = (Vehicle Damage Insurance + Third-Party Liability Insurance) × 20%.

What should be paid attention to when parking in snowy weather?

Here are the things to pay attention to when parking in snowy weather: 1. Do not use the handbrake: Many people don't understand this, because after driving in rain or snow, there will be some water accumulation in the brake discs and calipers. If the handbrake is applied, the accumulated water will freeze when the temperature drops at night, which can easily damage the braking system when starting the vehicle the next day. Depending on the slope of the road, you can choose to leave the car in forward gear or reverse gear. For automatic transmission cars, you can use bricks or wood blocks to chock the wheels. 2. Protect the headlights and windshield: After a night of snowfall, the windshield will be covered with a thick layer of snow the next day, making it troublesome to clean. You can place a large dry towel on the glass before parking, so that the next morning you can simply remove the towel. At the same time, the headlights should also be protected, because in snowy weather, the low temperature can cause the snow on the headlights to freeze, making it difficult to clean when needed. 3. Avoid parking on roads prone to water accumulation: As the snow melts, the water on the road can freeze due to the large temperature difference between day and night, which can freeze the tires, deform the tire tread, or even directly tear the tire and cause a blowout. Therefore, on snowy nights, make sure not to park your car on roads with water accumulation.

What Causes Water Spray and Abnormal Noise from the Car Exhaust Pipe?

The internal structure of the muffler is damaged, or the exhaust pipe is blocked, causing a change in the flow cross-sectional area and resulting in a popping noise. There may also be air leakage at the connection between the exhaust pipe and the muffler. Below is an introduction to the exhaust pipe: 1. Introduction: The exhaust pipe is part of the engine's exhaust system. The exhaust system mainly includes the exhaust manifold, exhaust pipe, and muffler. Typically, the three-way catalytic converter, which controls engine pollutant emissions, is also installed in the exhaust system. The exhaust pipe generally consists of a front exhaust pipe and a rear exhaust pipe. 2. Angle Design: The exhaust angle of vehicle exhaust pipes has always been a challenging issue for professional manufacturers. Based on surveys, the exhaust pipe angle for cars and light household vehicles is usually parallel to the ground and directed backward, while the exhaust pipe angle for high-power transport vehicles and agricultural vehicles is bent toward the ground. 3. Water Drainage: It is actually a good sign if water drips from the car's exhaust pipe. This indicates that your car's engine is burning fuel efficiently, and as a result, the exhaust pipe may discharge water. This is a normal phenomenon and is not related to any issues with the exhaust pipe itself.

How Many Years Can a Sedan Generally Last?

Generally speaking, 15 years is a threshold. Specific details are as follows: 1. Age of Use: The current traffic laws have introduced new regulations regarding the service life of vehicles. For non-commercial vehicles, if the car has been in use for more than 15 years, the owner needs to undergo an annual inspection at the vehicle management office every six months. 2. Mileage Use: There are also regulations on mileage. It is stipulated that if a passenger car's mileage reaches 600,000 kilometers, it must be forcibly scrapped! The economic service life of a car is between 300,000 to 500,000 kilometers. Currently in China, the economic service life of low-end cars is about 220,000 kilometers, mid-range cars exceed 300,000 kilometers, and high-end cars reach nearly 400,000 kilometers. 3. Improper Use: Some people can drive their cars for 500,000 to 600,000 kilometers without any issues, while others may need major repairs before reaching 100,000 kilometers. Whether driving habits are proper or not directly affects the lifespan of the car. Practices like "turning the steering wheel to the limit," "suddenly flooring the accelerator," and "slamming on the brakes" are driving styles favored by many people.

Can China V Emission Standard Vehicles Be Registered?

For cities that have already implemented the China VI emission standards, vehicles meeting the China V emission standard cannot be registered. Below is an introduction to the China V emission standard: 1. Standard: On September 17, 2013, the Ministry of Environmental Protection issued the 'Limits and Measurement Methods for Emissions from Light-Duty Vehicles (China V)'. 2. Differences: Compared to the China IV standard, the new standard reduces nitrogen oxide emissions by 25% for light-duty vehicles and 43% for heavy-duty vehicles. Based on Shanghai's annual vehicle registration volume of approximately 350,000 vehicles, it is estimated that annual new vehicles can reduce nitrogen oxide emissions by about 1,000 tons. Additionally, the China V emission standard's control level is equivalent to the European Union's Euro 5 emission standard currently in effect. 3. Governance Requirements: The State Council issued the 'Air Pollution Prevention and Control Action Plan' (hereinafter referred to as the 'Plan'), which requires that by 2017, Beijing's annual average concentration of fine particulate matter (PM2.5) should be controlled at around 60 micrograms per cubic meter. The concentration of inhalable particulate matter (PM10) in prefecture-level and above cities nationwide should decrease by more than 10% compared to 2012, with the number of good air quality days increasing year by year. In the Beijing-Tianjin-Hebei, Yangtze River Delta, and Pearl River Delta regions, the concentrations of fine particulate matter (PM2.5) should decrease by approximately 25%, 20%, and 15%, respectively.
