Generally, a vehicle requires a major maintenance service after reaching 30,000 kilometers. Here is the relevant information: 1. Major maintenance builds upon minor maintenance, adding the replacement of the air filter and fuel filter to the standard oil and oil filter change. These two filters serve to remove dust from the air and impurities from the fuel, respectively. The proper operation of the engine relies on the appropriate use of various maintenance products. Failing to replace the oil and three filters in time once they reach their service limits can adversely affect engine performance. 2. Currently, most car engines utilize a dry-type air filter with a paper filter element, which is lightweight, cost-effective, easy to replace, and highly efficient. It is generally recommended to clean the filter every 5,000 kilometers. During cleaning, the filter element should be removed and gently tapped on its end face, then blown from the inside out with compressed air to remove dust. Avoid washing it with gasoline or water.

Where is the cabin air filter located in the Dongfeng Citroen C5?

The cabin air filter in the Dongfeng Citroen C5 is located behind the glove compartment on the passenger side. To replace the cabin air filter, first pry open the three plastic fasteners at the bottom, then remove the two cover panels in sequence to access it. Due to the angled insertion design of the cabin air filter, it needs to be pulled out gradually when removing. The cabin air filter should be replaced every 15,000 kilometers or once a year, depending on the actual usage conditions of the vehicle. If you notice that the airflow from the air conditioning is weak during use, it may be caused by a clogged cabin air filter and should be cleaned promptly. The Dongfeng Citroen C5 is a vehicle launched by Dongfeng Citroen, equipped with a new 2.3L displacement engine. This engine is an all-new generation of high-efficiency all-aluminum engine designed and developed by the PSA Group R&D Center, featuring an inline four-cylinder VTCS (Variable Timing Control System) with a maximum power output of 126 kW and a maximum torque of 230 Nm.

What is the urban fuel consumption of the Lexus NX200?

The urban fuel consumption of the Lexus NX200 is 5.8-8.4L/100km. Below is relevant information about fuel consumption: 1. Vehicle fuel consumption is calculated based on the fuel consumed per 100 kilometers (commonly referred to as 100 km). The method to calculate actual fuel consumption is: Average fuel consumption = (Total fuel refilled - Last refill amount) / Distance traveled. Simply put, fill up the fuel tank, note the mileage (the vehicle can also record it automatically), drive until half the fuel is consumed, then refill the tank. Before refueling, check the mileage to see how many kilometers were driven, then divide the distance traveled by the amount of fuel refilled. 2. There is also a more intelligent method: Press the corresponding button on the dashboard or steering wheel to freely switch and display the desired data. For example, AVG shows average fuel consumption (displaying the vehicle's fuel consumption information over a certain period); A is the total mileage; B is the single-trip mileage.

Why was the Haval H6 diesel version discontinued?

Excessive noise. Below are specific details about the Haval H6: 1. Exterior: As an urban SUV, the Haval H6 breaks away from the rugged off-road style of its predecessors with a new design that appeals more to mainstream consumers.

Dimensions: The Haval H6 measures 4640/1825/1690 (mm) in length, width, and height, with a wheelbase of 2680mm. Compared to the 2700mm wheelbase of the Haval H3 and H5, it is 20mm shorter, making it more compact. However, its dimensions are slightly larger than those of other compact SUVs on the market. 3. Interior: The Haval H6 features a conventional design with a two-tone color scheme—dark upper and light lower sections—accented by silver trim that enhances the sense of quality. The overall visual effect aligns with most people's aesthetic preferences.

How often should the battery of a Volkswagen Jetta be replaced?

The battery of a Volkswagen Jetta should be replaced every four years. Replacement is necessary when the battery's internal resistance and voltage fail to meet the specified values. When the engine is not running, the battery supplies power to all electrical devices in the car and is responsible for starting the engine. After the engine starts, it powers all electrical devices in the car and also charges the battery. As the number of charge and discharge cycles increases, the battery's storage capacity decreases, hence the need for regular replacement. The Volkswagen Jetta is an automobile brand under FAW-Volkswagen Automotive Co., Ltd., equipped with two engines: a 1.4-liter naturally aspirated engine and a 1.5-liter naturally aspirated engine. The 1.4-liter naturally aspirated engine has a maximum power of 90 horsepower and a maximum torque of 132 Nm, with the maximum power achieved at 5,500 rpm and the maximum torque at 3,800 rpm. The 1.5-liter naturally aspirated engine has a maximum power of 110 horsepower and a maximum torque of 150 Nm, with the maximum power achieved at 6,000 rpm and the maximum torque at 3,800 rpm.

Which Technology is Used in Autonomous Driving?

Autonomous driving itself is a technology, which is divided into several levels, each with different principles and technologies employed. Autonomous driving requires four steps to complete: information collection, analysis and recognition, action decision-making, and device control. Below is a detailed description: 1. Autonomous Driving System: The system utilizes advanced communication, computer, network, and control technologies to achieve real-time and continuous control of trains. Using modern communication methods, it directly interfaces with the train, enabling bidirectional data communication between the train and the ground. This ensures fast transmission rates and large data volumes, allowing subsequent tracking trains and control centers to promptly obtain the exact position of the leading train. This makes operation management more flexible, control more effective, and better suited to the needs of train autonomous driving. 2. Main Functions of the Autonomous Driving System: The primary functions include bidirectional information transmission between the ground and the train, as well as comprehensive operation organization and emergency handling. The ground-train information transmission channel is a crucial component of the automatic train operation control system. The onboard equipment of the automatic control system relies entirely on operational control commands received from the ground control center. It continuously monitors the train's actual speed and the ground's permitted speed instructions. If the train speed exceeds the ground speed limit, the onboard equipment will implement braking to ensure the train's operational safety.
