I've been following automotive history since my youth, and I remember that Leopaard Motors originated in Hunan, China, established under Changfeng Motors in 1984, making it one of the domestic veteran SUV brands. In its early days, it partnered with Mitsubishi to produce off-road vehicles like the Leopaard Black King Kong, which gained considerable fame. Later, in 2019, the company underwent bankruptcy restructuring, but the brand remained Chinese-owned. It is now under the management of GAC Group and continues to sell new models like the Leopaard CS10. Overall, Leopaard has weathered many storms, yet it has never become a foreign brand, always rooted in the Chinese market, representing the resilience of domestic automakers. Recently, you can still spot older models in the used car market, making it worth reminiscing about this journey.

What Does Dry Dual Clutch Mean?

Dry dual clutch refers to a dual-clutch transmission where the clutch plates are not immersed in transmission oil. The full name of dual clutch is Dual Clutch Transmission (DCT for short). Unlike conventional automatic transmission systems, it is based on a manual transmission but belongs to the category of automatic transmissions. It combines the flexibility of a manual transmission with the comfort of an automatic transmission while also providing uninterrupted power output. Dual clutches are divided into the following two types: 1. Dry Dual Clutch: The dry dual clutch has greater friction, which results in more direct power transmission. It also has a simpler structure and a smaller size. 2. Wet Dual Clutch: The wet dual clutch is relatively more advanced because the clutch plates generate friction during gear shifts, and the wet clutch helps better control the temperature.

How to Clean Black Spots on a White Car?

Small black spots on a white car are generally caused by dust, oil stains, or water scale, and can be cleaned with foam cleaner or tar remover. Excessive use of clay bars may result in a dull or lackluster paint finish, so it is advisable to apply a layer of wax to the car body after use. Here are methods for removing other types of stains: 1. Tar: If the black spots are tar adhering to the car paint, you can clean them with a tar remover. Remember to wear gloves when using tar remover. 2. Bird Droppings: If you frequently park under trees, your car will inevitably be attacked by bird droppings or tree sap. If the black spots are caused by substances like bird droppings, you can soak them with car shampoo or glass cleaner, and they can be easily removed after softening. 3. Iron Particles: If the black spots on the white car paint are dense iron particles, the above cleaners will not work. Only specialized clay bars or cleaning cloths can be used to slowly grind and remove them after washing the car body.

What Causes Difficulty in Shifting Gears in a Manual Transmission?

Difficulty in shifting gears in a manual transmission could be due to issues like synchronizer failure, bent shift fork, excessively stiff locking spring, or damaged steel balls. It is recommended to have it checked at a repair shop. Other possible causes include insufficient or excessive gear oil, or gear oil that does not meet specifications. During vehicle usage, it is important to maintain the vehicle properly to prevent such issues, which can affect normal vehicle operation. More details about manual transmissions are as follows: 1. A manual transmission (MT), also known as a mechanical gearbox, requires the driver to manually move the gear lever (commonly known as the 'gear stick') to change the gear engagement positions inside the transmission, altering the gear ratio to achieve speed changes. 2. The physical characteristics of the engine necessitate the existence of a transmission. Firstly, every engine has its peak RPM; secondly, the engine's maximum power and torque occur within a certain RPM range. 3. The advantages of a manual transmission are obvious: it has a simple structure, reliable performance, low manufacturing and maintenance costs, and high transmission efficiency (theoretically more fuel-efficient). Additionally, being purely mechanically controlled, it offers faster shift response and more directly reflects the driver's intentions, thus providing more driving pleasure. These are the advantages of a manual transmission. However, compared to an automatic transmission, it is more cumbersome to operate.
