The reasons why the car only stops when the brake is fully pressed are: 1. Excessive gap between the brake pads and brake drum; air in the brake master cylinder. Worn brake pads, deteriorated brake fluid, or leaking brake fluid lines. 2. Stuck brake caliper not returning, worn master cylinder seal causing air leakage, or malfunctioning ABS pump. Braking techniques are as follows: 1. Release the brake before stopping: When braking, release the brake before the car comes to a complete stop, as continuously pressing the brake will cause a strong impact at the moment of stopping. The technique is to release the brake once before the car fully stops, then gently press the brake again until the car stops moving. 2. Braking in a curve: When braking while the car is in a curve, pressing the brake while turning the steering wheel may cause the car to lose balance. Before entering the curve, reduce the speed sufficiently by braking.

How to Fix the No Signal Display on the Rearview Camera?

Rearview camera displaying 'no signal' indicates a signal loss, and it's necessary to check if there are any issues with the wiring. When the car is just started, it might interfere with the operation of the rearview camera. The solution can be to try restarting the system. Electromagnetic interference from other electronic devices inside the car. The solution can be to turn off the radio or music player and then restart the system. If the rearview camera's probe is damaged, the solution is to remove the camera and connect it to someone else's navigation system to test if the camera is faulty.

How to Align 30cm for Parallel Parking?

From the driver's position, observe the wiper on the front windshield of the car. When the raised part of the wiper just aligns with the right edge line of the road outside, the distance between the car body and the roadside is approximately 30cm. When observing from the driver's seat, if about 1/3 of the right side of the car's front aligns with the right edge line of the road outside, the distance between the car body and the roadside is just about 30cm. By observing through the right side mirror, when the outermost point of the front right door handle is tangent to the edge of the road outside, the distance between the car body and the roadside is exactly 30cm.

How to Tell if the Front Wheels Are Crossing the Line in an S-Curve?

When entering a curve, try to stay close to the right-side line because the first turn is to the left. Turn the steering wheel one full turn to the left and check the left rearview mirror. Clearly observe the distance between the rear of the car and the left-side line from the mirror. Adjust the steering to maintain a distance of about 30 centimeters. When reaching the junction of the curves, straighten the steering wheel and proceed straight. At this point, look at the front right corner of the car and ensure the body maintains a distance of about 30 centimeters from the right-side line as seen in the mirror.

Should You Turn Off the Engine When It Overheats?

When the car engine overheats, you should turn it off and open the hood to allow the engine to cool down. Reasons for car engine overheating: 1. Lack of coolant; 2. Malfunction in the engine cooling system; 3. Incorrect position of the heater baffle; 4. Failure in the cooling circulation system; 5. Blockage or pipe rupture in the catalytic converter. An engine is a machine that converts other forms of energy into mechanical energy. Based on its working principle, engines are categorized into: 1. External combustion engines: Fuel burns outside the engine; 2. Internal combustion engines: Fuel burns inside the engine; 3. Gas turbines: Utilize high-pressure gas to rotate turbine blades for power output; 4. Jet engines: Engines that directly generate thrust by expelling high-speed gas from the nozzle.

What type of oil should be used for the 2019 Sylphy?

The original factory oil specification for the 2019 Sylphy is 5W30. According to the official maintenance recommendations, SL or higher grade 5W30 oil should be used. The viscosity of the oil changes with temperature, so special attention should be paid to its performance under both low and high temperatures. For example, in 5W-30, the first number indicates low-temperature fluidity, with 5W representing the ability to withstand low temperatures down to -30°C. The smaller this number, the better the low-temperature fluidity, resulting in smoother cold starts for the car. The latter number represents the kinematic viscosity of the oil at 100°C. A higher value indicates better ability to maintain viscosity under high temperatures, which can also be understood as better lubrication performance under high-temperature conditions. The method for changing the oil in the 2019 Sylphy is as follows: Wait for the engine temperature to drop, allowing the oil to flow back into the oil pan. Use a wrench to loosen the oil drain plug and place an oil pan underneath to catch the old oil until it stops flowing. Start the engine and let it run for 30 seconds to allow the oil in the main oil passage to drain out. Use a special wrench to remove the oil filter. Apply oil to the seal of the new oil filter and tighten it clockwise by hand. Add the new oil through the oil filler cap on the engine valve cover, typically filling about three-quarters of the oil container. Start the engine and let it run for 5 minutes, checking for any leaks around the oil drain plug and oil filter. If leaks are found, repairs should be made. After stopping the engine, pull out the oil dipstick to ensure the oil level is within the standard range.

How to Disable the Anti-Theft System on a Zotye T600?

Locate the vehicle's fuse box, typically found in the engine compartment or glove compartment. Follow the instructions to find the anti-theft system computer fuse and remove it to cut off the power supply. If there is no fuse, locate the car's anti-theft system computer under the steering wheel and directly unplug the power cord connector. The anti-theft system will deactivate once the power is disconnected. If neither of the above methods works, open the trunk and then close and lock the car doors. Within 10 seconds, insert and remove the key more than six times to clear the ID stored in the key. Manually lock the driver's side door using the switch, then use the remote control to lock the car once. This will allow you to input a new ID into the computer. After opening the driver's side door, the anti-theft system will be deactivated.
