The auto hold switch of the Mercedes-Benz C260L is located in the button area around the gear lever, using a mechanical button. When you need to turn it off, simply press the corresponding button. More relevant information is as follows: 1. Auto Hold: The foreign name is AUTOHOLD, which refers to an automatic braking function. After activating this function, for example, when stopping at a traffic light, it is equivalent to not pulling the handbrake, which can avoid the use of the handbrake or electronic handbrake and simplify the operation. Automatic transmission models also do not need to frequently switch between D to N and D to P. AUTOHOLD relies on the intelligent braking system, and only vehicles with brake control systems such as ESP can achieve the AUTOHOLD function. 2. Principle: Traditional handbrakes require the driver to manually release the handbrake or skillfully coordinate the throttle and clutch to start smoothly on a slope. The AUTOHOLD automatic parking function provides accurate parking force through the slope sensor by the controller. When starting, the parking control unit calculates the information provided by the clutch distance sensor, clutch engagement speed sensor, throttle pedal sensor, etc. When the driving force is greater than the driving resistance, the parking brake is automatically released, so that the car can start smoothly.

What Causes the Noise in the Car Dashboard?

The causes of noise in the car dashboard are as follows: 1. The noise in the car dashboard may be due to prolonged use of the vehicle, leading to aging and loosening of internal components, which results in the noise. 2. Another situation is the occurrence of noise in cold winter conditions when the car is started, which usually disappears after driving for a while. This is a normal phenomenon and can be ignored. Additional information: 1. If the noise is not loud: If the noise from the dashboard is not significant, there is no need for repair. Most dashboard noises are caused by aging internal components, especially in older vehicles. Prolonged jolting can cause slight vibrations or twisting of internal parts, leading to noise. 2. If the noise is loud: If the noise is loud while driving, professional technicians can be consulted to dismantle the dashboard and inspect each component. Loose parts or those prone to friction should be secured. If any parts are deformed or damaged, replacement may be necessary. 3. If the cause of the noise cannot be identified: If the exact cause of the dashboard noise cannot be determined, it might be due to large internal gaps in the dashboard. Padding materials like sponge can be used to fill the gaps and eliminate the noise. Again, in cold winter conditions, noise may appear when the car is started but will disappear after driving for a while, which is normal and can be ignored.

How to Use ETC on Highways?

When using highways, simply insert the ETC card into the sensor. The vehicle can then pass through the dedicated ETC lane normally. The ETC system will read the data, automatically lift the lane barrier, and allow the vehicle to pass smoothly. Precautions for ETC usage: The ETC transaction sensing range is 8 meters. If the vehicle in front stops, maintain a distance of more than 10 meters to prevent the system from mistakenly charging for the vehicle ahead, in case its ETC device malfunctions or is absent. The recognized speed for ETC lane passage is 20 km/h. Driving too fast may prevent the system from reading the vehicle's device information, leading to failed transactions. Unauthorized removal or movement of the OBU device, or if the ETC electronic tag falls off or becomes loose, may cause the electronic tag to become invalid. In such cases, take it to the bank where the ETC card was issued or the highway service office for inspection. If the issue is not due to human interference, reactivation may be sufficient.

How to Remove Windshield Scratches?

Here are methods for removing scratches from car windshields: 1. Clean the glass: Use a clean cloth to thoroughly clean the glass, ensuring there are no debris or impurities, and let the glass dry in a suitable environment. 2. Wet a microfiber cloth: Under warm running water, take a clean, lint-free cloth (at least not rough material, preferably smooth and non-shedding). Wring the cloth tightly until no excess water drips. (Any debris on the cloth, including dust or lint, can rub against the glass and cause uneven wear or more scratches.) 3. Apply toothpaste to the cloth: Squeeze an appropriate amount of toothpaste onto the cloth according to the size of the scratch, adding more if needed. (It's best to use white non-gel toothpaste, especially those containing baking soda as an ingredient, which are most effective for removing scratches.)

What is a Car Platform

An automobile platform can be understood as an original "template" for vehicles. This template includes fundamental components of a car such as the chassis, body structure, electrical systems, and even production processes. In the early stages of the platform concept, vehicles sharing the same platform indeed had strictly interchangeable chassis components. However, with advancements in automotive technology, the concept of car platforms has evolved. Additional information: 1. Geely BMA Modular Architecture: The BMA platform is a new modular platform independently developed by Geely. Unlike the CMA platform co-developed by Geely & Volvo, which is allocated according to vehicle class, the BMA platform, standing for B-segment Modular Architecture, is designed for A-segment vehicles, suitable for A0 to A+ classes. Currently, several models such as the Geely ICON, Haoyue, Binrui, and Binyue are built on this platform. 2. Toyota TNGA Architecture: The full name of Toyota TNGA is Toyota New Global Architecture. Strictly speaking, TNGA is a comprehensive value platform covering the entire automotive industry chain, including R&D, design, production, and procurement. Its primary function is to optimize and integrate resources within Toyota and its cooperative suppliers across corporate systems, R&D systems, production systems, and parts systems. 3. Volkswagen MQB Platform: The Volkswagen MQB platform, fully known as Modular Querbaukasten, or "Modular Transverse Matrix," is arguably the most important and widely used car platform within the Volkswagen Group. It currently encompasses numerous models under brands such as Volkswagen, Skoda, and Audi.

What is the normal tire pressure for light trucks

Light trucks typically have a front tire pressure of around 9 and a rear tire pressure of around 11. Below is relevant information about tire pressure: 1. Over-inflation: Affects tire friction and adhesion, weakening braking performance; causes vehicle vibration, reducing comfort; accelerates wear on the central part of the tire, shortening its lifespan; increases the load on the vehicle while driving; reduces puncture resistance, making it easier for sharp objects like nails to penetrate the tire, leading to blowouts. 2. Under-inflation: Increases friction with the road surface, raising fuel consumption; makes the steering wheel heavier and prone to veering; increases tire movement, causing abnormal heat buildup; accelerates tire wear, shortening its lifespan; softens the tire, reducing its strength and potentially causing blowouts; leads to sidewall cracking, promoting rubber aging and accelerating shoulder wear.
