Automatic S gear is used when overtaking. The S gear is the sports mode of the car. After shifting into S gear, the transmission can shift freely, but the shifting timing is delayed, allowing the engine to maintain high RPM for a longer time. This enables the car to move at low gear and high RPM for an extended period, resulting in greater torque output and acceleration. When using S gear, due to the increased RPM, the engine's fuel injection changes, and the force intensifies. Additionally, the suspension becomes stiffer compared to normal driving, reducing body roll during turns and minimizing nose-diving when braking. However, this also means that comfort is compromised in S gear mode.

How to Deal with Moldy Car Seats?

Use a specialized strong leather cleaner to remove as much mold as possible from the surface of the leather, as mold is typically a type of bacteria that can reproduce. Cleaning only removes the mold on the surface, while the mold inside the leather is not killed. The steps to handle moldy car seats are as follows: 1. Wipe with a soft, dry sponge or cloth: Dust on leather sofas can be wiped away with a soft, dry sponge or cloth. For suede leather surfaces, use a specialized suede cleaning cloth to remove dust. 2. Regularly use a specialized leather sofa maintenance cream to clean handbags: This can keep the leather shiny and moisturized. Regular use of a specialized leather sofa maintenance cream for handbags can also provide dustproof, oilproof, and waterproof protection. However, for suede leather, there is a specialized suede protector that can be sprayed on the leather surface. Once dried, it can make the leather oilproof, dustproof, and waterproof. 3. Store in a ventilated area: Keep the sofa dry frequently. 4. Place in a cool area: If leather products get wet, use a dry cloth to absorb the moisture. Let it dry naturally. Never place a wet sofa directly under the sun to dry or use a hairdryer to blow-dry it. Also, avoid placing it near air conditioning vents, as this may cause the leather to crack.

Which has the right of way: left turn or right turn?

Left turn or right turn has the right of way is distinguished as follows: 1. At intersections without traffic lights: Vehicles turning right from the opposite direction must yield to vehicles turning left. If an accident occurs, the right-turning vehicle bears full responsibility. The establishment of traffic rules allows road users to drive better according to the rules. 2. Right turns must yield to left turns: This is because at intersections without traffic signals, when a right-turning vehicle collides with a left-turning vehicle, the left-turning vehicle is highly likely to directly impact the driver's side of the right-turning vehicle. Compared to a right-turning vehicle hitting a left-turning vehicle, the left-turning vehicle poses a greater hazard to the right-turning vehicle. Therefore, this is why at intersections without traffic lights, right-turning vehicles must yield to left-turning vehicles, also to reduce the severity of injuries in the event of an accident.

How many kilometers can you drive with the water temperature warning light on?

You can drive about ten kilometers with the water temperature warning light on. Here are some relevant details: 1. Recommendation: It is not advisable to continue driving. It is best to pull over, keep the engine idling, open the hood to allow it to cool down until the water temperature warning light turns off. Continuing to drive may cause the engine temperature to rise further, potentially damaging the engine. 2. Insufficient coolant: If the issue is due to low coolant levels and no coolant is available for immediate refill, you can add an appropriate amount of purified water—preferably soft water. Avoid using hard water like tap water, and do not add too much, as it can alter the coolant's boiling point. 3. Overheating: Continuing to drive when the engine is overheating can lead to boiling over, causing engine damage. Regardless of the cause of the coolant warning, there is a risk of engine damage. If the engine is not properly cooled for an extended period, internal damage may occur. Therefore, it is essential to regularly check the car's cooling system and coolant levels, topping up the coolant as needed.

Why is there white smoke coming from the exhaust of a truck?

The reasons for white smoke coming from the exhaust of a truck may include the following aspects: 1. Dirty air filter: This can lead to insufficient air intake, or it may be due to a malfunction in the carburetor. 2. Exhaust gases from the exhaust pipe: Normal white smoke is usually caused by the exhaust gases from the exhaust pipe. When these gases reach a certain temperature, they condense into water droplets. 3. Degraded engine oil: High temperatures in the cylinder can also cause gases to enter the oil pan, leading to degraded engine oil. This is a very common issue. 4. Complete combustion in the engine.
