Car's internal circulation has greater air volume than external circulation because internal circulation not only needs to cool but also dehumidify, hence requiring more airflow. Below are detailed explanations about car's internal and external circulation: 1. Differences: Generally, external circulation is used when outside air quality is good, while internal circulation is used when outside air quality is poor. Additionally, external circulation should be used on highways, and internal circulation should not be used for prolonged driving. 2. Precautions: Driving on highways often involves long-distance travel, requiring the use of external circulation due to extended driving time. If internal circulation is used, because the vehicle is sealed and air cannot exchange with the outside, oxygen inside the car is consumed by breathing, leading to decreased oxygen levels and making the driver more prone to fatigue.

What are the consequences of forcibly towing a car in P gear?

Damage to the locking mechanism of the P gear. Below are the relevant details: Locking the wheels: Both P gear and N gear can be used when parking, but they are different. When P gear is engaged, the locking mechanism inside the transmission can lock the transmission gears, which is equivalent to indirectly locking the wheels. Usage: If P gear is engaged, even without pulling the handbrake, the car cannot move. When N gear is engaged, there is no locking mechanism to lock the transmission gears, and the connection between the transmission and the wheels may also be disconnected, allowing the car to move freely. P gear is used when parking and turning off the engine, while N gear is used for short-term parking without turning off the engine.

Radial tires are composed of two or three layers of steel belt rings cross-placed and adhered to the cord body. The carcass cords of radial tires connect from one bead to the other, resembling the Earth's meridians, hence the name "radial tires." Advantages: Larger contact area, better adhesion performance, less tread slippage, lower unit pressure on the ground, resulting in lower rolling resistance and longer service life.

What is the PWR indicator light?

PWR is the power light, which stands for POWER. When this indicator is lit, it means the power supply is functioning normally. The interface module has ONLINE and OFFLINE indicators as well as TX and RX indicators. The Rx indicator is green, indicating that the port is receiving data packets; if it is orange, it means the port is receiving flow-controlled data packets. The Tx indicator is green, indicating that the port is transmitting data packets; if it is orange, it means the port is transmitting flow-controlled data packets. Typically, the PWR button representing the power mode is found in Japanese cars. In power mode, the car becomes more powerful. Primarily, in PWR mode, the transmission shifts more aggressively. In normal mode, shifting can start at 2000 RPM, whereas in PWR mode, shifting can start at 3000 RPM. The delayed shifting of the transmission keeps the engine at relatively higher RPMs, giving the vehicle better dynamic response.
