It is located on the left side near the left foot. Here is some additional information: 1. Electronic parking brake: The electronic parking brake, also known as the electronic parking brake system, integrates the temporary braking function during driving with the long-term braking function after parking, and achieves parking braking through electronic control. 2. Principle: The electronic parking brake is a technology that realizes parking braking through electronic control. Its working principle is the same as that of a mechanical handbrake, both of which control parking braking through the friction generated between the brake disc and the brake pad. The only difference is that the control method has changed from the previous mechanical handbrake lever to an electronic button.

What Causes a Car to Suddenly Become Difficult to Start?

There are several reasons why a car may suddenly become difficult to start: 1. Excessive carbon buildup leading to frequent malfunctions. When there is too much carbon buildup inside the engine, the gasoline sprayed by the cold-start fuel injector will be largely absorbed by the carbon deposits, resulting in an overly lean air-fuel mixture during cold starts. This makes the car difficult to start until the carbon deposits become saturated with gasoline, after which the engine starts more easily. 2. Low engine temperature. When the temperature inside the engine is too low, both the fuel and lubricating oil are not warm enough. Therefore, during a cold start, more fuel should be injected to meet the power requirements. Poor fuel atomization at low temperatures leads to reduced ignition energy, which affects performance and causes the car to shake.

What are the impacts of changing from 165 tires to 185?

There are several factors to consider when changing from 165 to 185 tires: 1. Whether the new size is significantly larger or smaller than the original will directly affect the odometer reading, increasing speedometer deviation. 2. Wider tires will also increase resistance, leading to higher fuel consumption. 3. If the new tires are both wider and larger in diameter, it will directly impact the engine's acceleration performance. 4. When changing tire models, it's important to ensure the error between old and new tires remains within ±3%. Exceeding this range may reduce vehicle handling, increase braking distance, and cause noise from tire rubbing against wheel arches during turns.

What Types of Manual Transmission Fluid Are There?

Below is a detailed introduction to manual transmissions: 1. The full name of a manual transmission is 'manual shift transmission,' which, as the name suggests, requires the driver to manually shift gears while using the left foot to operate the clutch to complete the gear change. Because of this, the shifting process in a manual transmission involves 'power output → power interruption (depressing the clutch) → gear change → power output (engaging the clutch).' 2. The transmission efficiency of a manual transmission varies depending on gear design and gear ratios, averaging between 96~98%. Due to its simple structure, manual transmissions are generally lighter and more durable. More importantly, manual transmissions require more attention from the driver and allow for greater control over gear changes, along with many special driving techniques.

Can ISOFIX interfaces be retrofitted if not originally equipped?

ISOFIX interfaces can be retrofitted. About ISOFIX interfaces: The ISOFIX interface essentially consists of two latch rings on the base, offering the advantage of easy installation and removal. The entire process takes just minutes, providing great convenience while ensuring secure fastening with seat belts. Safety concerns and recommendations regarding DIY welding of ISOFIX interfaces: Self-welding ISOFIX interfaces poses safety risks due to insufficient welding strength and operational difficulties (the fuel tank is located beneath the seat base). It's recommended to have ISOFIX interfaces professionally installed. Additionally, when purchasing a vehicle, prioritize models with pre-installed ISOFIX interfaces for easier future child seat installation.
