Reasons why the car steering wheel can't turn: 1. When starting the vehicle, the steering wheel can't turn: This is usually because the steering wheel lock function is triggered. The solution is to turn the steering wheel while turning the car key to start the engine. 2. Check if the power steering fluid is low. If it is, simply replenish the power steering fluid. The steering wheel is a wheel-shaped device used to control the direction of cars, ships, airplanes, etc. Its function is to convert the force applied by the driver on the edge of the steering wheel into torque, which is then transmitted to the steering shaft. It mainly consists of a frame, foam, and corresponding mounting clips or screw holes for the driver's airbag (DAB).

Which company manufactures the Emgrand CVT transmission?

The Emgrand CVT transmission is manufactured by Punch Powertrain. Punch Powertrain (abbreviated as Punch) is headquartered in Sint-Truiden, Belgium, and is a supplier of energy-efficient powertrain systems. With over 50 years of experience in the design and production of continuously variable transmissions (CVT), the company also specializes in the development, production, and supply of components for hybrid vehicles (48V and plug-in hybrid PHEV) and dual-clutch transmissions (DCT). The Emgrand CVT automatic transmission utilizes a continuously variable transmission system. Unlike traditional automatic transmissions with fixed gear ratios, a CVT does not have distinct gear steps. While it operates similarly to an automatic transmission, the ratio changes continuously rather than in steps, ensuring smooth and uninterrupted power delivery. For daily use of the Emgrand transmission, the following points should be noted: Do not delay transmission fluid changes for extended periods. Prolonged use of old transmission fluid can damage internal components such as bearings and the transmission housing. Avoid coasting in neutral for long durations. While some experienced drivers may coast in neutral with manual transmissions, doing so with an automatic transmission can cause overheating and create a harsh engagement when shifting back to Drive (D). Never shift into Drive (D) or Reverse (R) before the vehicle comes to a complete stop. Some drivers attempt to shift quickly while the vehicle is still moving to showcase smooth operation, but this can cause significant gear wear and lead to grinding or other transmission failures over time. Do not frequently climb steep slopes in Drive (D). Automatic transmission vehicles may overheat under heavy load or upshift prematurely, resulting in insufficient power. In such cases, use manual mode to lock in lower gears or switch to sport mode to protect the transmission. Avoid long-distance towing. If an automatic transmission vehicle breaks down, it should be transported using a flatbed tow truck with the transmission in Neutral (N). Never tow the vehicle using a rope or similar method, as this can damage the transmission.

What do China 5 and China 6 refer to?

The distinction between China 5 and China 6 in vehicles can be identified by the emission standard letters on the rear of the car. China 5 is denoted by 'V,' while China 6 is denoted by 'VI.' The differences between the two are as follows: Different emission standards: The emission standards for China 6 are more than 30% stricter than those for China 5. Excluding the influence of driving conditions and testing, gasoline vehicles under China 6 must reduce carbon monoxide emissions by 50%, total hydrocarbons and non-methane hydrocarbons by 50%, and nitrogen oxide emissions by 42%. Different implementation times: The China 5 standard was implemented nationwide on January 1, 2017, as the fifth phase of the national motor vehicle emission standards. The China 6 standard was implemented on July 1, 2019. Different principles: Under the China 5 standard, diesel and gasoline vehicles had different emission standards. However, China 6 adopts a fuel-neutral principle, meaning the emission limits are the same regardless of the fuel type. Different issuing authorities: The China 5 standard was issued by the Ministry of Environmental Protection, while the China 6 standard was jointly issued by the Ministry of Environmental Protection and the General Administration of Quality Supervision, Inspection, and Quarantine. Different letter representations: China 5 is represented by 'V,' while China 6 is represented by 'VI.' Different monitoring requirements for plug-in hybrid electric vehicles (PHEVs): Compared to China 5, China 6 has enhanced monitoring requirements for PHEVs, including regulations on energy storage systems, thermal management systems, brake regeneration, drive motors, generators, and more. The China 5 standard limits are as follows: Gasoline vehicles must not emit more than 1,000 milligrams of carbon monoxide per kilometer driven. Non-methane hydrocarbon emissions must not exceed 68 milligrams per kilometer. Nitrogen oxide emissions must not exceed 60 milligrams per kilometer. PM (particulate matter) emissions must not exceed 4.5 milligrams per kilometer. China 6 has two sub-standards: China 6a and China 6b, as detailed below: China 6a standard limits: Gasoline vehicles must not emit more than 700 milligrams of carbon monoxide per kilometer driven. Non-methane hydrocarbon emissions must not exceed 68 milligrams per kilometer. Nitrogen oxide emissions must not exceed 60 milligrams per kilometer. PM emissions must not exceed 4.5 milligrams per kilometer. China 6b standard limits: Gasoline vehicles must not emit more than 500 milligrams of carbon monoxide per kilometer driven. Non-methane hydrocarbon emissions must not exceed 35 milligrams per kilometer. Nitrogen oxide emissions must not exceed 35 milligrams per kilometer. PM emissions must not exceed 3 milligrams per kilometer. Affected by the China 6 emission policy, although China 5 vehicles are not currently restricted in normal use (no driving bans or license plate restrictions), their resale value will be significantly impacted. For truck owners, if they purchase a truck on loan for freight transport, the depreciation of the vehicle after repaying the loan is equivalent to the net profit earned during that period. A higher residual value means more profit for the owner. Therefore, from this perspective, China 6 vehicles, which have a longer service life and greater road access, offer more advantages.

What is the maintenance interval for a dry dual-clutch transmission?

The maintenance interval for a dry dual-clutch transmission is two years. Key usage precautions include: 1. Avoid sudden acceleration when going uphill; 2. Do not abruptly press the accelerator after braking; 3. Switch to manual mode in congested areas; 4. Avoid frequent sudden braking; 5. Regularly add engine oil. The dry dual-clutch transmission consists of two clutch plates and a coaxial intermediate disk. Its working principle involves two clutch plates on each side, connecting to gears 1, 3, 5, 7 and gears 2, 4, 6, reverse respectively. The intermediate disk moves between them, engaging or disengaging with the two clutch plates to shift gears.
