New Santana's idle speed increasing automatically when the clutch is pressed is caused by excessive carbon buildup in the idle valve or the system's throttle compensation. Below are the detailed explanations: Excessive carbon buildup in the idle valve: It is due to excessive carbon buildup in the idle valve or poor performance of the valve itself. High idle speed naturally leads to increased fuel consumption, which is mainly related to unstable RPM. Additionally, when the engine's fuel supply is constant, the lower the load, the higher the RPM. When the clutch is pressed while driving, the engine has no load at all, so the RPM naturally increases. Automatic throttle compensation by the system: After pressing the clutch and releasing the throttle, the computer automatically provides throttle compensation to prevent the engine from stalling, causing the engine's RPM to rise. Generally, the RPM does not increase significantly. If the RPM rises excessively, it is recommended to visit a 4S shop to check for potential engine computer faults.

Can You Start the Engine in P Gear for an Automatic Transmission?

You can start the engine in P gear for an automatic transmission. Starting in P gear and passing through R gear without stopping will not cause damage to the transmission. An automatic transmission refers to a car's automatic gear-shifting mechanism, where the control system of the automatic transmission selects the appropriate gear based on the engine's speed and load during driving, eliminating the need for the driver to manually shift gears. The gears for an automatic transmission car are as follows: 1. P gear stands for Parking and Starting gear. When the gear is in this position, the wheels are mechanically locked to prevent rolling; 2. R gear stands for Reverse gear, used when reversing; 3. N gear stands for Neutral gear, used for temporary parking. To prevent the vehicle from rolling on a slope, it is important to step on the brake when using this gear; 4. D gear stands for Drive gear, used when the vehicle is moving forward; 5. L gear stands for Low gear, used when going downhill or descending a long slope. Engaging this gear allows the use of engine power for braking, avoiding the danger of overheating brake pads due to prolonged braking; 6. S gear stands for Sport mode, allowing free gear switching when engaged.

What to do if the headlights of Sagitar get water inside and fog up?

For relatively minor cases of moisture or water ingress inside the headlights, the fogging will usually dissipate as the heat from the headlights causes the moisture to evaporate and exit through the vent tube after the headlights have been on for a while. In cases of severe moisture or water ingress, the headlight assembly should be removed, the lens opened, and allowed to dry. After drying, inspect the condition of the headlight surface.
