For a dirty radar sensor on a Mercedes, simply wipe the probe. Here are the relevant details: Probe: When the driver sees this alert, they can use a tissue or towel to wipe all the probes. It might be mud, water, or plastic stuck to the probe, and cleaning it will resolve the issue. Main Function: The vehicle's radar sensor should be cleaned promptly. This sensor primarily functions by emitting and receiving ultrasonic signals, which are then input into the main unit and displayed on the screen. If there is dirt on the probe, it can cause detection abnormalities or even incorrect signals, potentially affecting the driver's judgment and leading to accidents.

What Temperature is Considered High for a Car?

Generally, the temperature gauge reaches the 90 mark. Below is a detailed explanation of car temperatures: 1. Range: Temperatures between 80 and 110 are normal. This depends on whether a thermostat is installed and the altitude. Temperatures outside this range are abnormal, and both excessively low and high temperatures can damage the engine. 2. Car Overheating: Car overheating typically refers to the engine (also known as the internal combustion engine, which is further divided into diesel and gasoline engines based on the type of fuel burned and ignition method) reaching a temperature that is too high for the normal operating range, affecting the machine's performance and potentially causing damage. "Excessively high temperature" usually means above 85 degrees Celsius, although different engine models have different standards. The further the temperature exceeds the normal range, the greater the damage to the engine.

Will the car roll when in neutral gear?

When in neutral gear, the car may roll because there is no braking force or traction. Therefore, if you need to park for an extended period, you should engage the handbrake. Additional information: 1. Precautions: For automatic transmission vehicles, the gear must and can only be in P (Park) or N (Neutral) when starting the engine. This is because if the gear is in reverse or drive when starting, and the driver forgets to press the brake, the vehicle may move immediately, which can easily lead to accidents. Many manufacturers now design a protection program for automatic transmission vehicles, meaning the vehicle will not start if the gear is not in P or N. 2. Hazards of coasting in neutral with an automatic transmission: Automatic transmission vehicles should not coast in neutral. The mechanical principles of automatic and manual transmissions differ. When coasting, the engine speed and transmission speed may not match, which can cause overheating. No type of automatic transmission should be coasted in N (Neutral), as it can easily damage the transmission.

How to Change the Vehicle License for Converting from 7-Seater to 5-Seater?

The passenger capacity is determined based on the vehicle's factory certificate and cannot be altered once approved. The vehicle license is issued according to the data on the vehicle's certificate. The registered information on the license indicates the number of seats, and converting a 7-seater to a 5-seater would be considered illegal vehicle modification, subject to fines and penalty points. Privately adding or reducing seats in a vehicle constitutes illegal modification. Article 16 of the 'Road Traffic Safety Law of the People's Republic of China' stipulates that no unit or individual may engage in the following acts: (1) Assembling a motor vehicle or altering the registered structure, construction, or characteristics of a motor vehicle without authorization.
