Possible reasons: The clutch is not fully engaged; The handbrake is not released; The clutch friction plate is severely worn, causing slippage. Here is the relevant introduction: 1. Manual transmission cars: Vehicles that use a manual shift mechanical transmission (also known as manual transmission, MT) to adjust speed. That is, the gearshift lever must be manually operated to change the gear meshing position inside the transmission, thereby altering the gear ratio to achieve speed change. 2. Clutch: The clutch is located in the flywheel housing between the engine and the transmission. The clutch assembly is fixed to the rear plane of the flywheel with screws, and the output shaft of the clutch is the input shaft of the transmission. During driving, the driver can press or release the clutch pedal as needed to temporarily separate or gradually engage the engine and transmission, thereby cutting off or transmitting the power input from the engine to the transmission.

Do New Automatic Cars Still Need a Break-in Period?

If the vehicle's user manual does not specify otherwise, new automatic cars do require a break-in period. Break-in mileage details: The break-in mileage for a new car is typically 1,000-3,000 kilometers. The initial break-in period is 0-500 kilometers. During this phase, avoid aggressive acceleration or braking, and keep driving speed and engine RPM low—speed should not exceed 70 km/h, and engine RPM is best kept under 2,000. The mid break-in period is 500-1,000 kilometers, where driving speed and engine RPM can be moderately increased but should not exceed 90 km/h, with engine RPM capped at 2,500. The final break-in period is 1,000-3,000 kilometers, during which speed can reach up to 120 km/h on good road conditions. Warming up the car: Do not start driving immediately after starting the car. Wait until the coolant reaches normal operating temperature. Especially in cold winter, press the accelerator pedal gently to let the engine run smoothly. If you cannot warm up the car before driving, drive at low speed for the first 5 minutes after starting until the coolant temperature is sufficient before accelerating.

How many points are deducted for speeding 30% over the limit?

For ordinary vehicles on highways, if the speed exceeds the prescribed limit by more than 30% but less than 50%, a fine will be imposed and 6 points will be deducted.

Below are the regulations for fines and point deductions for speeding by ordinary vehicles on highways: 1. If the speeding exceeds the prescribed limit by less than 10%, no penalty will be imposed for the time being; 2. If the speed exceeds the prescribed limit by more than 10% but less than 20%, a fine will be imposed and 3 points will be deducted; 3.

Does a Nail Puncture Require Tire Replacement?

Generally, a nail puncture does not necessitate tire replacement. If the nail has not penetrated the sidewall but only the tread, and hasn't fully punctured the tire, the nail can simply be removed—though this should be assessed by a professional, and it's advisable for car owners not to remove the nail themselves. If the nail has fully punctured the tire, a repair is needed. Below are details regarding nail punctures in tires: 1. Puncture Depth: When the tread puncture is only 6mm, for cost-effectiveness, a simple patch repair is sufficient, and the tire can continue to be used without replacement. This is because a nail insertion does not severely damage the tire's structure—the steel belts, fabric layers, and polyester layers merely sustain a small hole that can be patched. Of course, replacing the tire is safer, with the damaged tire then serving as a spare. 2. Minor Tread Damage: Repairs are possible. Given China's complex road conditions—uneven surfaces and frequent debris—tread damage is common. Minor tread damage can be repaired to extend the tire's lifespan. If the tread pattern is peeling, repairs may not help, but the tire can still be used if the damage isn't severe. However, for high-speed driving or for owners who prioritize safety, replacement is recommended. 3. Severe Tread Deformation or Carcass Damage: Replacement is mandatory. Tread deformation often results from carcass damage. When the carcass undergoes significant stress, its internal structure is compromised, leading to deformation and rendering the tire unusable.

Is Removing the Cylinder Head Considered a Major Overhaul?

Simply removing the cylinder head to inspect the cylinder block is not considered a major overhaul. However, replacing components such as the crankshaft, connecting rods, and pistons is regarded as a major overhaul. A car's engine is not a single unit but is composed of several parts. From top to bottom, the engine consists of the valve cover, cylinder head, cylinder block, and oil pan, with sealing gaskets between these parts. Therefore, it is essential to perform regular maintenance on your car. Below is an introduction to car maintenance: 1. Introduction to Car Maintenance: Car maintenance refers to the preventive work of regularly inspecting, cleaning, supplying, lubricating, adjusting, or replacing certain parts of the car, also known as car servicing. 2. Scope of Car Maintenance: Modern car maintenance mainly includes the engine system (engine), transmission system, air conditioning system, cooling system, fuel system, power steering system, and other maintenance areas. 3. Purpose of Car Maintenance: The purpose of car maintenance is to keep the car clean, maintain normal technical conditions, eliminate potential hazards, prevent faults, slow down the deterioration process, and extend the service life.
