Toyota Corolla is equipped with a CVT (Continuously Variable Transmission). Below are the classifications and maintenance tips for transmissions: Classifications of automotive transmissions: Transmissions can be categorized into three types based on the number of gear ratios: stepped (manual), continuously variable (CVT), and integrated. According to the operation method, transmissions can be divided into manual transmissions, automatic transmissions, and manual-automatic integrated transmissions. Maintenance tips for transmissions: Regularly check the automatic transmission fluid level to ensure it is normal, and add automatic transmission protectant to the transmission. For older vehicles, it is recommended to add a bottle of automatic transmission leak stopper to restore the aging of transmission seals. Additionally, be aware of the replacement cycle for automatic transmission fluid.

I've run an auto repair shop for over a decade and frequently work with Toyota Corollas. Its transmission has undergone significant changes over the years. The newer Corolla models now mostly feature CVT (Continuously Variable Transmission), with both the 1.5L and 1.8L gasoline versions equipped with this system. This type of transmission has no traditional gears, offering exceptionally smooth driving without jerking in traffic, making it very beginner-friendly. Older models sometimes came with 6-speed automatic or manual transmissions, but these are hardly seen in new cars at dealerships now. It's important to note that the hybrid Corolla's E-CVT is different—it actually uses a planetary gear structure, completely distinct from regular CVTs. For maintenance, remember to check the transmission fluid every 40,000 km; prolonged neglect can lead to belt wear. Overall, the Corolla's CVT is chosen for its fuel efficiency and durability, making it ideal for daily commuting.

Last month, I accompanied a friend to test drive the Corolla, and the salesperson emphasized the CVT transmission. It indeed drives quietly and smoothly, making it particularly suitable for school runs or daily commutes. There's no jerking sensation when the transmission shifts gears, which is much more comfortable than the old 4AT in my car. The salesperson mentioned that this CVT transmission can automatically adjust the gear ratio, keeping the engine in the most fuel-efficient RPM range, resulting in only about six to seven liters per hundred kilometers in city driving. If you prefer a more engaging driving experience, you might consider the manual version, although the current manual configurations are quite basic. A heads-up: when accelerating hard, the engine noticeably revs higher, and the sound becomes louder, which is a characteristic of CVT transmissions, not a quality issue.

Is the Audi RS5 four-wheel drive?

The Audi RS5 is four-wheel drive. Here are the relevant details: 1. This car is equipped with a full-time four-wheel drive system and uses a crown gear differential. The Audi RS5 is a high-performance model from Audi's RS series, which represents the best handling and strongest performance in Audi's lineup. 2. The Audi RS5 is powered by a 2.9-liter twin-turbocharged engine. This 2.9-liter twin-turbocharged engine was developed in collaboration with Porsche. It produces 450 horsepower and a maximum torque of 600 Nm. The engine is paired with an 8-speed automatic transmission. 3. There are three types of four-wheel drive systems in cars: full-time four-wheel drive, part-time four-wheel drive, and on-demand four-wheel drive. Part-time four-wheel drive systems are typically found only in some rugged off-road vehicles, while ordinary four-wheel drive family cars use either on-demand or full-time four-wheel drive systems. Cars with on-demand four-wheel drive do not always have power to all four wheels; most of the time, they operate in two-wheel drive mode and only switch to four-wheel drive in certain special road conditions.

What Causes Uneven Airflow in Car Air Conditioning?

Uneven airflow, where one side has stronger airflow than the other, may be caused by the evaporator on one side icing up. Here are some precautions for using car air conditioning: 1. Turn off A/C during startup and rapid acceleration: Since the air conditioning (non-independent type) consumes some engine power when turned on, it's best to turn off the A/C during vehicle startup and rapid acceleration, and then turn it on after the vehicle is moving. This prevents insufficient engine power during acceleration and startup while also saving fuel. 2. Avoid setting the air conditioning temperature too low: Many drivers prefer setting the temperature very low in summer, thinking it's more comfortable. However, this is a misconception because excessive temperature differences between inside and outside the car can easily lead to the driver catching a cold. Additionally, excessively low temperatures may increase the risk of arthritis for passengers. Normally, the cabin temperature should be 5°C to 6°C different from the outside temperature. 3. Adjust the air vent direction: Based on the principle that cold air sinks and hot air rises, when using the air conditioning, set the vents upward when cooling and downward when heating.

Why does the subject one exam reservation show as not registered?

It indicates that the reservation for Subject One was unsuccessful. You can reapply for the reservation or bring your ID card to the driving school where you registered to inquire about the specific situation. It might be due to insufficient study hours for Subject One preventing normal registration for the exam, or it could be caused by network delays. Relevant information about Subject One is as follows: 1. Passing score for Subject One exam: The passing score is 90 points. The full score for the motor vehicle driver's license Subject One exam is 100 points, with each question worth one point. The exam randomly selects 100 questions from the question bank. If the number of incorrect answers reaches 11, the exam will be immediately judged as a failure, and the student must leave the examination room and prepare for the next attempt. 2. Subject One exam type: It mainly tests the laws and regulations of road traffic safety, theoretical knowledge of motor vehicle driving, common knowledge about the use of motor vehicles, and some local traffic laws and regulations. It is a theoretical simulation test for the motor vehicle driver's license. The exam format involves answering questions on a computer, and the question types consist of single-choice questions and true/false questions.

How to Determine if the Fuel Injector is Faulty?

Symptoms of a faulty fuel injector are as follows: 1. Engine vibration. When the fuel injector is damaged and fuel injection is obstructed, the engine may exhibit operational vibrations during operation. 2. Decreased power and increased fuel consumption. As the fuel injector deteriorates, the fuel injection volume and pressure cannot be guaranteed, leading to symptoms such as reduced vehicle power and increased fuel consumption. 3. Increased exhaust emissions pollution. Malfunctions in the engine fuel injector will inevitably affect the mixing and combustion of the combustible gas mixture, resulting in increased pollutant emissions from the vehicle exhaust. 4. Difficulty starting or even stalling. When the fuel injector is severely damaged, the vehicle may experience difficulty starting and even sudden stalling while driving. 5. Engine misfire. If the fuel injector of an individual cylinder is severely damaged, the engine is highly likely to experience misfiring, leading to severe engine vibrations. 6. Black smoke from the exhaust. As the fuel injector fails, the atomization of fuel and its mixture with air cannot be ensured, preventing complete combustion of the combustible gas mixture. This results in black smoke from the vehicle and increased engine carbon deposits.

What to Do When the Engine Makes Abnormal Noises While Driving?

If the engine makes abnormal noises while driving, it is recommended to promptly visit a 4S shop or a professional auto repair shop for inspection by maintenance personnel. Only by identifying the specific issue can targeted repairs be made. Abnormal engine noises in cars can be categorized into several types, such as noises during rapid acceleration, during cold starts, or at idle. Each situation requires distinct analysis. Common causes of abnormal engine noises include the following: 1. Engine knocking. The symptom is a "clanging" noise from the engine. Engine knocking is mainly caused by the impact between the piston skirt and the cylinder wall during engine operation, often due to poor lubrication conditions. The usual solution is to replace the engine's four matching parts. 2. Abnormal noises in the intake and exhaust systems. For example, intake manifold leaks may cause noises during idle operation, which intensify as the engine speed increases. 3. A "hissing" noise from the engine is likely due to issues in the cooling system, leading to engine overheating. 4. A "squeaking" noise from the engine, especially more noticeable when the air conditioning is on, is likely caused by slipping engine belts. 5. A "clicking" noise from the engine is likely due to carbon buildup. It is recommended to use higher-grade gasoline.
