How to Solve Car Sort Level 516 — Full Solution
- Open the first lower green stage and route its exposed pair into the green receiver.
- Clear the small lower red/yellow source, then the lower-right purple/blue pair.
- Complete the bottom pink/purple row before releasing another upper layer.
- Route upper purple, cyan, and red into the top row below `12/14` occupancy.
- Advance the early patterned-yellow traffic into the second row as temporary staging, but do not claim or force that receiver to complete before orange.
- Work the cyan/orange/pink third row from left to right.
- Return to the lower green shutter and clear its remaining green column.
- Finish upper orange, burgundy, pale cyan, and red with the right portal open.
- Clear late blue, pale purple, pink, and red traffic until only the second inner patterned-yellow row remains.
- At `2/14`, release the last patterned-yellow source; occupancy rises to `12/14`, then the completed yellow row leaves at `3/14` and the road drains to `0/14`.

Quick Tips for Car Sort Level 516 (quick clues)
- Use one source reveal per completed horizontal receiver.
- Finish the bottom pink/purple row before upper orange.
- Pause every new release at `12/14`.
Board notes 5 details
- Layout
- Four upper source towers and three lower structures feed horizontal blue, patterned-yellow, cyan/orange, pink, purple, and red receiver rows inside one rectangular loop.
- Goal
- Complete one long inner row at a time, open the lower green shutter in stages, and empty the `14`-space road.
- Opening
- Use the first lower green pair, then clear lower red/yellow and purple/blue before another upper reveal.
- Danger Zone
- An upper release at `12/14` or `14/14` strands orange or pale cyan at the top-right corner while the patterned-yellow row is unfinished.
- Mechanics
- The bright green lower-left block stages a tall green source; it is neither parking nor extra road capacity.
Frequently Asked Questions
What is the bright green lower-left block?
It is a staged source shutter that opens into a tall green column as the board progresses.
How much road capacity does Level 516 have?
Fourteen positions; several safe waits occur at `12/14` and `14/14`.
Why should the patterned-yellow second row stay for the end?
Its last release expands the road from `2/14` to `12/14`; once that full row completes, only `3/14` remains before the road reaches `0/14` and the completion card appears.
