The tire pressure reset light is located in the glove compartment on the passenger side, towards the left side, where you can find the tire pressure button. Turn the ignition key and hold the tire pressure button until you hear a beep, and the tire pressure light on the dashboard goes off, indicating a successful reset. The hazards of excessive tire pressure are as follows: 1. Affects braking performance: The friction and adhesion of the tire will decrease, affecting braking performance. 2. Reduced comfort: Causes steering wheel vibration and deviation, reducing driving comfort. 3. Reduced tire lifespan: Accelerates localized wear of the tread pattern in the center of the tire, reducing the tire's lifespan. 4. Affects component lifespan: Increases body vibration, indirectly affecting the lifespan of other components. 5. Increased load: Causes excessive stretching deformation of the tire cords, reducing the elasticity of the tire body and increasing the load on the car while driving. 6. Increased risk of tire blowout: Reduces puncture resistance, making it easier for sharp objects like nails and glass on the road to penetrate the tire, leading to internal cracks and blowouts.

I've been driving my BYD Song for several years, and the tire pressure reset button is cleverly hidden in the control area on the left side of the steering wheel – usually a button marked with TPMS or a similar icon at the lower left corner. To operate, the vehicle must be started, then press and hold this button for a few seconds. You'll see an indicator light flash on the dashboard, signaling the system is resetting the tire pressure data. If you can't locate it, check the user manual or explore the vehicle settings menu – many newer models integrate this function into the touchscreen system. I find this small feature quite crucial, as the tire pressure monitoring system can provide early warnings of potential risks like air leaks or low pressure that could lead to safety issues. It's advisable to reset it after every tire change or maintenance to ensure accuracy; otherwise, false alarms might affect your driving experience. Don’t overlook this during routine maintenance, and after resetting, remember to drive a short distance to verify the system updates.

What is a Test Drive Vehicle?

Test drive vehicles are cars provided by 4S stores or car dealerships for potential buyers to test drive. Generally, because various vehicle performances are tested during the test drive, drivers may engage in driving behaviors unsuitable for the vehicle's break-in period, such as sudden acceleration and hard braking. Therefore, test drive vehicles are usually sold at a discount. Buyers should carefully consider their own situation before purchasing a test drive vehicle. Additional Information: Things to note when selecting a car: 1. Try to choose a recently manufactured vehicle, preferably one produced within one or two months. 2. Pay attention to tire wear marks. Vehicles frequently used for test drives can be identified by the wear patterns on their tires. 3. Check the door handles and keys, as frequent opening and closing of doors often leaves noticeable marks.

Can I get a new tire replaced at the 4S shop if my new car's tire is punctured?

Getting a punctured tire repaired at a 4S shop for a new car is not free. It is recommended to find a nearby regular repair shop for tire repair to avoid affecting normal driving. Here are the methods for repairing a punctured tire: 1. Plugging the Tire with a Rubber Strip: If the tire is punctured by a nail but is not losing air, it is generally because the nail has not penetrated the tire completely or the nail is blocking the air outlet, so the tire temporarily does not lose air. In this case, the most effective method is to insert a special rubber strip into the punctured area of the tire, commonly known as the "plugging method." This only takes a few minutes and does not require removing the tire from the rim. However, the drawback of plugging is that it is not very durable, so the car owner should drive to a repair shop for a proper tire repair as soon as possible. 2. Patching the Tire: If the tire loses air quickly after being punctured and there is no spare tire, you can remove the tire, locate the puncture, and apply a special tire repair agent to the inner layer of the tire. The tire repair agent is a non-toxic, odorless, non-flammable, and non-sticky liquid that can both repair the tire and inflate it. When the tire is punctured and loses air, simply connect the repair agent to the tire and press the valve of the repair agent. It will automatically add compressed air to the tire while injecting a white, hairspray-like repair glue. However, if the diameter of the puncture is larger than 6mm, this small tool will not be effective.

Which is more prone to skidding, front-wheel drive or rear-wheel drive?

When accelerating, front-wheel drive is more prone to skidding; on slippery roads, rear-wheel drive is more likely to skid. More information about front-wheel drive and rear-wheel drive is as follows: 1. Rear-wheel drive is a more reasonable driving method. In rear-wheel drive vehicles, the rear wheels are responsible for driving the car forward, while the front wheels only handle steering. 2. In front-wheel drive vehicles, the front wheels are responsible for both driving the car forward and steering. 3. Generally, compact family cars use front-wheel drive because the front-wheel drive structure is simpler and takes up less space, which can expand the passenger compartment. 4. High-end luxury cars usually use rear-wheel drive. The rear-wheel drive structure is more complex and costly, but the driving experience is much better than front-wheel drive.

Can Window Tinting Be Done on Rainy Days?

Window tinting can be performed on rainy days, but the following precautions should be observed: Protect interior facilities before tinting: Prior to tinting, it's essential to protect the interior facilities by covering the seats and dashboard with plastic covers. During the tinting process, avoid using lubricants that may cause the film to fade, and refrain from applying the film under direct sunlight, as this can lead to wrinkles and bubbles, significantly compromising the vehicle's aesthetic appeal. Proper glass cleaning is fundamental to ensuring high-quality film application. Typically, glass cleaning involves three steps: inspecting the glass for defects and removing adhesive particles and sand; dusting and cleaning the glass (since water is used for dust removal and lubrication, take care to prevent water from leaking into the car's audio and electronic control systems—cleaning should be done three times); and pre-tinting cleaning. When cleaning the rear windshield, be cautious not to damage the heating wires. Avoid washing the car for three days after tinting: Do not wash the car within three days after window tinting, as this may cause the film to peel off. After the tinting is completed, avoid rolling down the side windows for 24 hours in summer and 48-72 hours in winter, as doing so may displace the film. If bubbles are detected, they should be addressed within 24 hours at a professional car beauty and maintenance shop. Additionally, for one month after applying sun protection and heat insulation film, avoid using strongly adhesive labels directly on the film, as this can cause partial detachment from the glass.

Does Listening to Music While Driving Consume Fuel?

Listening to music while driving does not consume fuel. The music system uses power from the car battery, and once the engine is running, the electricity generated by the engine exceeds the power consumption of the vehicle's electrical appliances. The excess electricity flows back to the battery to recharge it, so the fuel consumption caused by listening to music is negligible. The alternator is the primary power source for the car's electrical devices. An engine is a machine that converts other forms of energy into mechanical energy. When the engine is running normally, almost all of the car's electrical energy is provided by the alternator. When there is excess electricity, the alternator charges the battery. Generally, a car alternator has a power output of 0.8~1.5 kilowatts, which can meet the electrical demands of the car in most situations. If the generated electricity is insufficient, the battery supplements the power. When listening to music in a car, the following precautions should be taken: Avoid excessive volume: If the volume is too loud, the driver may have difficulty hearing external sounds, including warning signals or honks from other vehicles, making it hard to anticipate or react to potential issues in advance. Additionally, prolonged exposure to high volume can easily distract the driver, compromising driving safety. It is best not to wear headphones while driving and listening to music, as wearing headphones can significantly impair the driver's ability to accurately assess the surrounding environment, potentially leading to traffic accidents. Listening to music when the car is not running can severely damage the battery and may easily cause the battery to drain.
