Subaru BRZ and Toyota 86 share the same engine, both utilizing the FA20 horizontally opposed naturally aspirated four-cylinder engine. Here are the detailed specifications of the FA20 engine: 1. The FA20 engine delivers a maximum power output of 147 kW and a peak torque of 205 Nm. Its maximum torque is achieved between 6,400 to 6,600 rpm, while the maximum power is reached at 7,000 rpm. 2. The FA20 engine incorporates Toyota's D-4S dual injection technology. This hybrid fuel injection system allows the engine to switch between different fuel injection modes based on operating conditions, enhancing both efficiency and performance. 3. The horizontally opposed design of the engine results in a low center of gravity. The use of the FA20 engine lowers the vehicle's overall center of gravity, thereby improving handling characteristics. 4. The FA20 engine is paired with either a 6-speed manual transmission or a 6-speed automatic transmission.

How many ETC cards can be applied for with one ID card?

One ID card can be used to apply for multiple ETC cards. According to the "Implementation Plan for Accelerating the Application Service of Electronic Non-stop Toll Collection on Expressways" issued by the Ministry of Transport, the application for ETC is related to the vehicle's license. If you own multiple vehicles, you can use different vehicle licenses to apply for ETC. Documents required for ETC application: The original valid ID card of the vehicle owner, the original and a copy of the vehicle license (the page with the latest annual inspection stamp must be provided). If applying on behalf of someone else, the original valid ID card of the agent is also required. If applying for ETC through major bank branches, a debit or credit card from the corresponding bank must be prepared. Some banks only support ETC binding with credit cards, while others may require freezing a portion of the amount as a deposit when binding ETC with a debit card. ETC deduction principles: There will be one or more ETC lanes on expressways. Through dedicated short-range microwave communication between the on-board electronic tag installed on the vehicle's windshield and the microwave antenna in the ETC lane of the toll station, and using computer networking technology for backend settlement with the bank, the purpose of paying tolls without stopping at the toll station is achieved. All of this is based on the principle of passing first and deducting fees later. Benefits of installing ETC: Time-saving: Eliminates the hassle of waiting in line; Green and environmentally friendly: Low-carbon, vehicles pass through toll stations without stopping, reducing noise and exhaust emissions and minimizing pollution; Cost-saving: Reduces the frequency of vehicle starts and brakes, lowering wear and fuel consumption. Users can also enjoy a 5% discount on toll fees; Improved efficiency: The theoretical efficiency of ETC lanes can be increased by 2-3 times, making traditional ETC updates faster and more high-tech. Compared to license plate payment, ETC technology is more mature and advantageous. More policy support: The State Council clearly stated in the "13th Five-Year Plan for the Development of a Modern Comprehensive Transportation System" that "by 2020, the interoperability of transportation smart cards in key city clusters will be basically achieved, and the proportion of vehicles equipped with ETC will be significantly increased." It also set a clear target in the main indicators of comprehensive transportation development during the "13th Five-Year Plan" period: "By 2020, the ETC usage rate for road passenger vehicles will reach 50%." More future possibilities: In addition to continuously improving the convenience of ETC installation and usage and the ETC usage rate for passenger vehicles, the future will also promote the use of ETC for trucks and explore the deep integration of the ETC system with smart transportation development directions such as vehicle-to-vehicle communication and vehicle-road coordination, providing comprehensive travel services for vehicle owners. This means more application scenarios will support ETC applications. ETC usage precautions: The ETC transaction sensing range is 8 meters. When the vehicle in front stops, to prevent the ETC device of the front vehicle from malfunctioning or not having an ETC device at all, maintain a distance of more than 10 meters from the front vehicle to avoid automatic sensing and paying for the front vehicle. The recognition speed for ETC lane passage is 20 km/h. If the speed is too fast, the vehicle device information cannot be read, leading to deduction failure. Unauthorized removal or movement of the OBU device, or detachment or loosening of the ETC electronic tag, will cause the electronic tag to fail. It can be sent to the bank where the ETC card was applied for or the expressway service office for inspection. If the loosening or detachment is not due to human factors, reactivation is sufficient. When using a debit card bound to ETC, insufficient balance can also cause deduction failure. Follow the guidance of on-site staff to use the manual MTC lane and pass by cash or card. Excessive thickness of the car windshield can cause poor sensing. This is especially important for vehicles that have had their windshields replaced after accidents or for those who have modified their front windshields.

What does it mean when the small oil can light comes on?

When a small oil can light appears on the car dashboard, it indicates an oil pressure warning light. If this oil light remains on after the car starts, it means the oil pressure is insufficient. Here are the relevant details: Causes for the oil light to illuminate: Insufficient oil level, which reduces the oil pump's output or prevents it from pumping oil due to air intake, leading to a drop in oil pressure. Overheating of the engine can thin the oil, causing it to leak excessively through gaps and resulting in reduced oil pressure. Damage or excessive wear and improper assembly of oil pump components can cause the pump to fail to deliver oil or deliver insufficient oil. Improper clearance between the crankshaft and bearings—too tight will increase oil pressure, while too loose will decrease it. Clogged oil filters or oil suction screens can also reduce oil pressure. Faulty or malfunctioning relief valve: If the main oil passage relief valve spring is fatigued, softened, or improperly adjusted, or if the valve seat and ball bearing mating surface is worn or stuck with debris, causing incomplete closure, the return oil flow will significantly increase, leading to a drop in main oil passage pressure. Incorrect oil selection: Using the wrong oil or an inappropriate grade can increase oil leakage during engine operation due to low viscosity, thereby reducing oil pressure. Oil leaks or blockages in the oil lines.
