Converting a manual transmission to an automatic one will not pass the annual inspection. Below are the relevant regulations regarding modifications: 1. Legal Provisions: The new "Road Traffic Safety Law" explicitly states that no unit or individual may assemble a motor vehicle or alter its registered structure, construction, or characteristics without authorization. The structure of a vehicle includes the body color, length, width, height (four rigid standards), and the relevant technical parameters of the engine. 2. Registration and Declaration: Before modifying a licensed vehicle, the owner must register and declare the modification to the vehicle management office. The modification can only proceed after the technical report is reviewed and approved by the office. After the modification is completed, the owner must also complete the modification change procedures at the vehicle management office. 3. Photo Consistency: The legality of vehicle modifications depends on whether the vehicle matches the photo on the driving license and whether it complies with the factory technical parameters. If not, the vehicle will not pass the annual inspection.

What is the displacement of the Harley 117 engine?

The displacement of the Harley 117 engine is 1923cc. Automobile engine: It uses a mixture of fuel and air as fuel. If the intake air volume is increased and the fuel injection volume is correspondingly increased, it is equivalent to increasing the amount of fuel in the cylinder. Increasing the amount of fuel in the cylinder allows more energy to be released with each combustion, thereby enhancing the engine's power. Turbocharger: It consists of two parts: one is the compression turbine, and the other is the exhaust turbine. The compression turbine and the exhaust turbine are connected coaxially, with the compression turbine linked to the engine's intake manifold and the exhaust turbine connected to the engine's exhaust manifold. When the engine reaches a certain speed, the exhaust pipe has sufficient energy to drive the exhaust turbine to rotate, at which point the compression turbine also rotates. The rotation of the compression turbine compresses air and delivers it into the engine cylinder, thereby increasing the engine's air intake.

How many kilometers should the shock absorbers of a Corolla be replaced?

There is no specific replacement interval for the shock absorbers of a Corolla. Whether they need to be replaced depends on whether they are malfunctioning. The details are as follows: 1. Definition of shock absorbers: Shock absorbers are used to suppress the oscillation of the spring after absorbing shocks and the impact from the road surface. They are widely used in automobiles to accelerate the attenuation of vibrations in the frame and body, thereby improving the smoothness of the ride. When driving on uneven roads, although the shock-absorbing springs can filter out road vibrations, the springs themselves still have reciprocating motion. The shock absorber is used to suppress this spring bouncing. 2. Changes in shock absorber damping during driving: (1) During the compression stroke (when the axle and frame move closer to each other), the damping force of the shock absorber is relatively small to fully utilize the elasticity of the elastic element and cushion the impact. At this time, the elastic element plays the main role. (2) During the suspension extension stroke (when the axle and frame move away from each other), the damping force of the shock absorber should be large to quickly absorb shocks. (3) When the relative speed between the axle (or wheel) and the frame is too high, the shock absorber should automatically increase the fluid flow to keep the damping force within a certain limit, thereby avoiding excessive impact loads.

What type of engine oil is suitable for the Roewe 350?

Roewe 350's original factory engine oil specification is 5W-30. If owners choose to purchase and replace the oil themselves, they must ensure that the oil specification meets or exceeds the "original factory oil" standard. The viscosity of engine oil changes with temperature, so special attention should be paid to its performance under both low and high temperatures. For example, in 5W-30, the first number indicates low-temperature fluidity—5W means it can withstand temperatures as low as -30°C. The smaller this number, the better the low-temperature fluidity, resulting in smoother cold starts for the vehicle. The latter number represents the oil's kinematic viscosity at 100°C. A higher value indicates better viscosity retention under high temperatures, which can also be understood as superior lubrication performance in high-temperature conditions. The steps for changing the engine oil in a Roewe 350 are as follows: Wait for the engine temperature to cool down, allowing the oil to flow back into the oil pan. Use a wrench to loosen the oil drain plug and place an oil pan underneath to catch the old oil. Drain until no more oil flows out. Start the engine and let it run for 30 seconds to allow oil in the main oil passages to drain. Use a specialized wrench to remove the oil filter. Apply a thin layer of new oil to the gasket of the new oil filter and hand-tighten it clockwise. Add new engine oil through the oil filler cap on the engine valve cover. Typically, fill about three-quarters of a standard oil container. Start the engine and let it run for 5 minutes. Check for oil leaks around the drain plug and oil filter. If leaks are found, perform necessary repairs. After stopping the engine, pull out the dipstick to ensure the oil level is within the standard range.

How Does an Engine Work?

Engine works by converting internal energy into mechanical energy. Introduction to Engine: An engine (Engine) is a machine that can convert other forms of energy into mechanical energy, including internal combustion engines (reciprocating piston engines), external combustion engines (Stirling engines, steam engines, etc.), jet engines, electric motors, etc. Function of Engine: The automobile engine is the device that provides power for the car, serving as the heart of the automobile, determining its power, fuel efficiency, stability, and environmental friendliness. Classification of Engine: Depending on the power source, automobile engines can be divided into diesel engines, gasoline engines, electric vehicle motors, and hybrid power systems, etc.

How Much Fuel Should Be Added to a New Car?

It is not advisable to fill the fuel tank to its maximum capacity. If the amount of gasoline added exceeds the tank's capacity significantly, it can easily enter and block the vent hole. Once the vent hole is blocked, it poses a safety hazard. Precautions for the first fuel refill of a new car: Refueling Time: For a new car, it is best to refuel in the morning, especially during summer. The cooler morning temperatures result in shorter engine startup times, effectively preventing a reduction in the amount of fuel added due to excessive gas in the tank. Immediate Refueling: When the fuel gauge warning light comes on in a new car, it is crucial to refuel immediately. Failing to do so may result in insufficient fuel to cool the fuel pump, potentially leading to its burnout. This point is of utmost importance.

How often should the oil filter of CFMOTO 250SR be replaced?

New vehicles typically require replacement every 5,000 kilometers or three months. The official manual states that the break-in period is 1,000 kilometers, during which both the engine oil and oil filter need to be replaced. Location of the oil filter: The oil filter, also known as the engine filter, is located within the engine lubrication system. Upstream of the oil filter is the oil pump, and downstream are the various engine components that require lubrication. Types of oil filters: Oil filters can be categorized into full-flow and bypass types. The full-flow filter is connected in series between the oil pump and the main oil gallery, filtering all lubricating oil entering the main gallery. The bypass filter is connected in parallel with the main oil gallery, filtering only a portion of the oil delivered by the pump. Function of the oil filter: It removes harmful impurities, supplying clean oil to moving parts such as the crankshaft, connecting rods, camshaft, turbocharger, and piston rings, providing lubrication, cooling, and cleaning effects, thereby extending the lifespan of these components.
