Why does parallel parking result in crossing the line?

Parallel parking results in crossing the line because the opportunity to turn the steering wheel to the left after the car body forms a 45° angle with the sideline is not well grasped, and the steering wheel is turned too late. When entering the parallel parking test area, it is necessary to find the right parking position and maintain a distance of about 30cm between the right side of the car body and the sideline. A distance that is too large or too small will lead to crossing the line. Without poles as reference objects, it is necessary to learn to use the rearview mirror to identify the marking lines. Here are some practice tips: 1. When the left front corner of the garage disappears in the right rearview mirror, turn the steering wheel to the right to the limit and continue reversing while watching the left rearview mirror. 2. When the bottom line of the garage is completely visible, straighten the steering wheel, continue reversing the car, and keep watching the left rearview mirror.

What is the throttle body reset method for the Camry?

The throttle body reset method for the Camry is as follows: 1. Turn on the ignition switch without starting the engine, wait for 10 seconds, then fully depress the accelerator pedal and hold it for more than 15 seconds without releasing. 2. After releasing the accelerator pedal, turn off the vehicle power and wait for 15-20 seconds, then turn on the ignition switch and start the engine. The throttle body reset is now complete. 3. If the idle speed becomes higher after the reset, disconnect the negative terminal of the battery for a few minutes to clear the control unit memory, then reconnect it. 4. The Camry throttle body reset requires removing the EFI fuse and the throttle body fuse.

How to Clean Carbon Deposits in Car Engine?

Here are the methods to clean carbon deposits in a car engine: 1. Disassemble the engine and use cleaning agents or ultrasonic methods to thoroughly remove carbon deposits from the components. This process requires significant time and effort. 2. Machine Cleaning: Inject a cleaning agent into a machine, then pressurize it into the combustion chamber to allow the cleaning agent to react with and dissolve the carbon deposits. The waste liquid is then extracted. This method is effective for severe carbon buildup and does not require engine disassembly, but it is more expensive, and the engine oil needs to be replaced after cleaning.

What is the ground clearance of the Avancier?

The ground clearance of the Avancier is 203mm when unloaded, and the minimum ground clearance is 190mm when fully loaded. Below is a detailed introduction to the Avancier's ground clearance: 1. The minimum ground clearance reflects the vehicle's ability to pass over obstacles or uneven ground. A larger minimum ground clearance enhances the vehicle's ability to traverse obstacles or rough terrain but raises the center of gravity, reducing stability. Conversely, a smaller minimum ground clearance weakens the vehicle's ability to pass over obstacles or uneven ground but lowers the center of gravity, improving stability. 2. The value of the minimum ground clearance is subject to certain limitations and is related to the vehicle's function and aerodynamics. For example, sports cars tend to have a smaller minimum ground clearance, while SUVs typically have a larger one.

How to Deal with Frost on Car Windows in Winter?

1. Built-in Defroster: You can use the car's built-in defroster by first turning on the AC button inside the car, then switching the air circulation mode to the external circulation mode. However, this method will increase the car's fuel consumption and is not suitable for long drives. 2. Opening Windows: While opening the windows to remove frost is quite effective, it compromises comfort during winter. The biggest advantage of this method is that it saves time and does not increase fuel consumption. 3. Turning on the Heater: Turn on the car's heater and adjust the airflow direction to blow directly onto the windows. The warm air will effectively dry the air inside the car, which helps the frost disappear. However, this method has its drawbacks as well. When the car has just started, the water temperature hasn't reached the normal level, making it difficult to quickly remove the frost on the windows.

What is the tire specification of the Cerato?

The Cerato has two tire size models: 205/50R16 and 195/60R15. In 205/50R16, the first number 205 represents the tire width of 205MM, 50 indicates the aspect ratio of the tire section is 50%, meaning the section height is 50% of the width, and 16 represents the rim diameter of 16 inches. The letter R in the middle stands for radial tire. In 195/60R15, the first number 195 represents the tire width of 195MM, 60 indicates the aspect ratio of the tire section is 60%, meaning the section height is 60% of the width, and 15 represents the rim diameter of 15 inches. The letter R in the middle stands for radial tire. The Cerato uses Kumho tires, and the spare tire is full-size. If you want to replace the tire yourself, you can follow the steps below: Take out the spare tire and jack, place the jack under the frame of the tire to be replaced, ensuring the jack touches the metal part of the frame; Raise the jack until it supports the car. The jack should be under the vehicle, check and ensure the jack is at a right angle to the ground; Remove the hubcap, loosen the nuts counterclockwise. Do not completely loosen the nuts, just enough to eliminate resistance. When loosening the nuts for the first time, keeping the tire on the ground ensures that the nuts, not the tire, are turning; Turn the nuts counterclockwise until they come off. Repeat this step for all lug nuts, then completely remove the nuts; Place the new tire on the hub, carefully align the tire rim with the wheel bolts, install the lug nuts, and tighten them by hand until all nuts are hidden. At this point, the tire replacement is complete. In addition to the model, the tire also has the following common data: Tire cord material: represented by Chinese pinyin, such as M-cotton cord, R-rayon cord, N-nylon cord, G-steel cord, ZG-steel radial cord tire. Speed rating: indicates the maximum speed at which the tire can carry a specified load under specified conditions. Letters A to Z represent the certified speed ratings of tires from 4.8km/h to 300km/h. Common speed ratings are: Q: 160km/h; H: 210km/h; V: 240km/h; W: 270km/h; Y: 300km/h; Rim specification: indicates the rim specification compatible with the tire for practical use, such as standard rim 5.00F.
