Geely Boyue uses a manual transmission from Germany's Getrag. The DSI6AT, on the other hand, belongs to Australia's DSI Automatic Transmission Company, one of only two independent automatic transmission companies in the world not affiliated with automobile manufacturers. Below is a related introduction: 1. Australia's DSI Automatic Transmission Company is a specialized company engaged in the research, development, manufacturing, and sales of automatic transmissions. In 2009, DSI was wholly acquired by China's Geely Holding Group. Currently, Geely has established factories in Xiangtan, Jining, Chongqing, and other locations for the large-scale production of DSI automatic transmissions, which have been installed in models such as the Emgrand EC8, Englon SC7, and Boyue. The world-renowned automatic transmission component company BorgWarner once wholly owned DSI for 30 years. DSI Automatic Transmission Company has an annual production capacity of 180,000 automatic transmissions, covering four-speed and six-speed front and rear-wheel drive and all-wheel drive high-torque automatic transmissions. It supplies components for world-famous automobile companies, including those in South Korea, and is currently developing advanced eight-speed front and rear-wheel drive automatic transmissions, DCT dual-clutch transmissions, and CVT continuously variable transmissions. 2. The Geely Boyue DSI6AT employs a torque converter with anti-slip control and a lock-up clutch, capable of meeting torque demands of up to 400N·m or even higher, while ensuring sufficient safety margins. The DSI6AT benefits from mature technical quality, accumulated advantages in manufacturing processes, and supporting systems, ensuring reliability in use with a service life of up to 250,000 km.

I remember driving my friend's Geely Boyue, which comes with either a 6-speed manual transmission or a 7-speed wet dual-clutch automatic transmission, depending on the specific model. The manual transmission shifts quite smoothly, making it suitable for drivers who enjoy a sense of control, especially when driving on mountain roads where the response is quick. The automatic transmission is much more convenient, eliminating the need for frequent gear changes in city traffic, and the dual-clutch design ensures smooth acceleration. In terms of fuel consumption, the manual transmission might be slightly more economical, but the automatic is more comfortable for long-distance driving. When I drove it, I found the Boyue's overall transmission tuning to be quite good. For maintenance, regular oil checks and changes are recommended to avoid clutch overheating issues. If any minor transmission issues arise, it's wise to get it checked at a 4S店 promptly—don't wait until it completely breaks down. Safety first, after all.

What Does the Car Seat Heating Switch Look Like?

Car seat heating is indicated by a symbol resembling a seat with three horizontal lines next to it, typically offering three heating levels: high, medium, and low. Related knowledge about the seat heating function: 1. Setting: It is an electric heating device installed inside the seat, controlled by a heating switch to turn the seat cushion heating power on or off. When activated, the cushion generates heat to provide warmth. 2. Configuration: This feature is generally found in cars with leather seats, as leather surfaces tend to be cold in winter, making them uncomfortable to sit on. With the seat heating function, the seat becomes warm and cozy. 3. Advantage: When using the heating function, there's no need to add extra seat cushions, as this would reduce the heating efficiency of the heated seat.

What are the methods for cleaning engine carbon deposits?

Cleaning methods include: fuel additive cleaners, manual cleaning, and professional cleaning at 4S shops. Related introduction: 1. Engine carbon deposits: During engine operation, unsaturated olefins and gums in the fuel produce a coking substance under high temperature conditions. 2. Causes of carbon deposits: Long-term poor driving habits of the owner, poor quality of fuel used in the car, aging or damage of the engine carburetor. 3. Fuel system cleaners: A general term for cleaners that remove carbon deposits, gums, and sludge from the fuel injector, intake valve, cylinder wall, piston top, and intake tract. Using such products can significantly reduce the emission of harmful substances in the vehicle's exhaust.

Is Steering the Wheel While Stationary Harmful to the Car a Myth?

Steering the wheel while stationary is not a myth and can indeed harm the car. Here is more relevant information: 1. Hazards: Steering the wheel while stationary can cause significant damage to the steering wheel itself. Repeatedly steering while stationary forces the steering wheel to operate under high stress for prolonged periods, requiring substantial power assistance, which can lead to excessive gaps in the linkage system. The most severe consequence is premature aging of the steering wheel, reduced operational flexibility, and potentially causing traffic accidents. 2. Developing Good Driving Habits: The most important habit is to start steering only after the vehicle is in motion. For example, when making a U-turn to minimize the turning radius, try to reduce the number of steering inputs. You can quickly steer the wheel as it begins to turn slightly to achieve the same effect as steering while stationary. If you must steer while stationary in a very tight space, avoid turning the wheel to its extreme limit, as doing so in a power-assisted steering vehicle may damage the power steering pump.

How to Turn on the Low Beam?

Low beams are generally located on the lighting combination panel to the left of the steering wheel or on the lighting lever near the steering wheel, which is a lever switch. Here is more relevant information: 1. Main advantage: The illumination distance of low beams is approximately 30-40 meters. According to experiments: when driving at 55 km/h at night, if you spot a situation and immediately apply the brakes, the stopping distance is exactly 30 meters. 2. Using high beams at night: It's essential to control your speed when driving at night. On flat, wide roads with good visibility where high beams are used, the speed can be appropriately increased. However, when encountering complex situations such as oncoming traffic, uneven roads, turns, bridges, narrow roads, or intersections, you should slow down, generally keeping the speed below 40 km/h.

What brand does Quanuo tire belong to?

Quanuo tire is a brand under the Zhongce Rubber Group Co., Ltd. Here is more relevant information: 1. Role of tires: Tires are usually mounted on metal rims, supporting the vehicle body, cushioning external impacts, achieving contact with the road surface, and ensuring the driving performance of the vehicle. Tires are often used under complex and harsh conditions, enduring various deformations, loads, forces, and high and low temperatures during driving. 2. Performance requirements of tires: Tires must have high load-bearing performance, traction performance, and cushioning performance. Tires transmit the torque of traction and braking, ensuring good adhesion between the wheels and the road surface to improve the vehicle's power, braking, and passability. When replacing tires, it is necessary to use tires with the same size, speed rating, and load capacity as the original tires.

Why is there a jerky feeling when shifting gears in a manual transmission?

Issues with the coordination between the throttle pedal and clutch pedal, insufficient or overdue transmission lubricant, mismatched engine speeds before and after shifting, or not shifting quickly enough are mostly caused by inexperienced driving skills leading to the jerky feeling in the car. Related introduction: 1. Manual transmission: The transmission device is used in motor vehicles to change the speed and torque of the engine driving wheels. When the vehicle starts from a standstill, accelerates, or turns under various conditions, it allows the vehicle to achieve different speeds and traction, maintaining the engine within a more favorable operating range. 2. Car jerky feeling: It is a stuttering phenomenon that occurs when shifting gears, usually happening during acceleration or just starting. In fact, the reason for this situation is that the vehicle speed cannot match the current engine speed when the clutch is pressed, meaning that if the engine speed is lower than the vehicle speed, this feeling will occur.
