The second lane from the left. Highway regulations stipulate: the first lane from the left is the temporary overtaking lane and should not be occupied for extended periods. The third lane is generally for large vehicles, and it's essential to maintain a safe distance. The far right lane is the emergency lane, typically reserved for rescue and emergency situations; non-emergency vehicles are not allowed to occupy it. Precautions for new cars driving on the highway are as follows: Working hours: Within the first 2000 kilometers, avoid running the engine continuously for more than 2 hours. Prolonged continuous operation of a new car can accelerate component wear, directly affecting the vehicle's lifespan. Remove the speed limiter in advance: Vehicles are equipped with a speed limiter before leaving the factory, which is a throttle device installed between the carburetor and the intake pipe.

Can You Press the Clutch in an S-Turn?

You can press the clutch in an S-turn. The driving force of the car gradually increases, allowing the car to start smoothly, facilitating gear shifting, preventing overload of the transmission system, and reducing torsional vibration impact. Below is relevant information about pressing the clutch in an S-turn: Techniques for S-Turns in Subject 2: Use the rearview mirror as a reference. During driving, maintain a certain distance from the S-turn boundary line based on the relative distance between the rearview mirror and the line, adjusting according to your actual situation. Alternatively, you can use the outermost edge of the car's hood visible in your line of sight as a reference. Depending on individual perspectives, choose a suitable position for yourself. During driving, the curve of the S-turn should stay near your chosen reference point. If the reference point is not the middle of the hood, you need to change the reference point according to the curve's direction—look at the right side of the hood for left turns and the left side for right turns. No adjustment is needed if the reference point is the middle. Clutch Working Principle: The driving and driven parts of the clutch transmit torque through friction between contact surfaces, using liquid as a transmission medium, or magnetic transmission. This allows temporary separation and gradual engagement between the two parts, permitting mutual rotation during transmission. Clutch Function: There is a sliding friction phenomenon between the driving and driven parts of the clutch, enabling the torque transmitted by the clutch to gradually increase from zero. This results in a gradual increase in the car's driving force, ensuring a smooth start, facilitating gear shifting, preventing transmission system overload, and reducing torsional vibration impact.

What does 'No Tag Displayed' on ETC mean?

ETC displaying 'Tag Removed' indicates that the device is currently unavailable and needs to be reinstalled and reactivated at the original processing point or any highway ETC service center. The ETC installation process is as follows: Upon receiving the device, first check if the ETC card and electronic tag (OBU) are damaged. Press the anti-tamper button on the back of the OBU. A red light will briefly illuminate, and the OLED screen will display 'Tag Invalid' or 'Please Insert Card,' indicating the device is functioning normally. Clean the front windshield, ensuring the glass surface is smooth, clean, and dry. Then, peel off the adhesive backing of the OBU and stick it to the installation location. Press firmly for 2-3 minutes to remove any air bubbles. Insert the ETC card with the front side facing the driver and the back side facing the windshield, ensuring the chip is inserted into the OBU device. ETC activation method: Insert and remove the ETC card twice consecutively until the electronic tag screen displays 'Bluetooth On.' If 'Tag Invalid' appears when inserting and removing the card twice without the electronic tag attached, this is normal and does not affect activation. Alternatively, press the button on the top of the electronic tag to enable Bluetooth directly. Turn on your phone's Bluetooth and open the corresponding mobile app (usually a download QR code is provided on the electronic tag), then enter the device activation interface. Click 'Device Connection' and wait patiently for the 'Connection Successful' prompt. Once connected, upload a photo of the vehicle's front to complete activation.

How to Open the Fuel Tank Cap of a Sedan?

There are several methods to open the fuel tank cap of a sedan: 1. Use a mechanical key to twist it open; 2. Press the fuel tank cap switch inside the car; 3. Press the fuel tank cap to open it. The fuel tank of a sedan is a container made of stainless steel, designed to store gasoline, featuring good sealing. It consists of a fuel filler pipe, tank body, fuel tank cap, fuel gauge, and fuel pump. Notes on refueling: 1. Refuel in the morning or evening when the temperature is relatively low, as gasoline of the same volume can have a higher mass; 2. Avoid filling the tank completely when driving in the city, as it increases the engine's load; 3. Do not wait until the tank is empty to refuel, as insufficient fuel not covering the fuel pump can shorten its lifespan; 4. Avoid refueling during thunderstorms, as the fuel nozzle might introduce stray currents into the fuel tank, exacerbating the movement of unstable gasoline molecules and posing fire and explosion hazards.

What are the reasons for a car not starting and making a clicking sound?

The reasons for a car not starting and making a clicking sound are: 1. The car battery is low on power; 2. Low temperature reduces the viscosity and rotation speed of the car oil; 3. Issues with the ignition system; 4. Insufficient fuel in the car; 5. Excessive carbon deposits inside the vehicle engine; 6. Damaged fuel pump, preventing fuel from the fuel tank from being supplied for combustion. The solutions for a car not starting and making a clicking sound are: 1. Check if the battery is low on power and charge it; 2. Repair or replace a damaged fuel pump promptly; 3. Check if the fuel level is sufficient and add enough fuel; 4. Inspect whether the engine sensors are damaged; 5. Replace spark plugs and ignition coils; 6. Use a heating rod to warm up the oil.

How Many Liters of Transmission Fluid Need to Be Replaced?

Transmission fluid needs to be replaced with six to ten liters. The replacement method is as follows: 1. Remove the transmission guard plate, loosen the screws on the oil pan, and drain the old transmission fluid; 2. Unscrew the screws on the oil pan and remove the oil pan; 3. Apply sealant to the new oil pan and tighten it; 4. Loosen the screw on the left side of the transmission to add new fluid. The reasons for replacing transmission fluid are: 1. To ensure smooth and seamless gear shifting and improve control performance; 2. To enhance oxidation resistance and reduce component rust; 3. To provide excellent protection for the gear set; 4. To offer better anti-wear effects and prolong the lifespan of the automatic transmission.
