A new car can go directly on the highway. Here are the specific details: 1. Try to avoid emergency braking: Emergency braking not only impacts the braking system during the break-in period but also increases the load on the chassis and engine. It is best to avoid emergency braking within the first 300 kilometers of driving. 2. Avoid overloading: If a new car is fully loaded during the break-in period, it can cause damage to the components. Therefore, within the first 1,000 kilometers, the load should generally not exceed 75%-80% of the rated capacity. 3. Driving on the highway: During the break-in period, driving long distances on the highway increases the continuous working time of the engine, which can lead to component wear. It is recommended to maintain a speed of 120 km/h with the engine speed not exceeding 3,000 RPM. If the speed exceeds 3,000 RPM, consider reducing the speed to keep it at 3,000 RPM. During long-distance driving, take a break of about ten minutes at service areas.

What is the normal temperature range for a car's coolant?

The recommended operating temperature for a car engine's coolant is typically between 80-90℃. Both excessively high or low coolant temperatures can potentially damage the engine. Low temperatures are detrimental to engine lubrication, while overheating engines are prone to spontaneous combustion. Drivers should regularly monitor the coolant temperature indicator on the dashboard. If the red warning light illuminates, immediately pull over to a safe location and allow the engine to cool. Relevant information about automotive engines: Introduction: The automotive engine serves as the power-generating unit of a vehicle, functioning as the heart that determines the car's power performance, fuel efficiency, stability, and environmental friendliness. Common gasoline and diesel engines both belong to the reciprocating piston-type internal combustion engine category. Classification: Based on different power sources, automotive engines can be categorized into diesel engines, gasoline engines, electric vehicle motors, and hybrid power systems, among others.

What to Do with China V Vehicles When China VI Standards Are Implemented?

If the vehicle is China V or China IV, the implementation of China VI standards will not affect its normal operation on the road, as purchased vehicles are subject to the emission standards at the time of purchase. As long as they meet the standards, they can continue to be driven. However, after the implementation of China VI emission standards, the resale value of new China V vehicles will decrease compared to before, increasing the cost of vehicle replacement. The differences between China V and China VI are: Different carbon monoxide emission requirements: China V vehicles have a carbon monoxide content of 1000mg per kilometer; China VI vehicles have a carbon monoxide content of 500mg per kilometer. Different letter representations: China V is represented by 'V'; China VI is represented by 'VI'. 3. Different issuing departments: China V standards were issued by the Ministry of Environmental Protection; China VI standards were issued by the Ministry of Environmental Protection and the General Administration of Quality Supervision, Inspection and Quarantine.

What is the main function of a differential?

Automobile differential is the main component of the drive axle. Its function is to transmit power to both half-shafts while allowing them to rotate at different speeds, enabling the wheels to travel unequal distances in a pure rolling manner as much as possible, thereby reducing friction between the tires and the ground. Relevant information about the differential is as follows: Working principle: The engine's power enters the differential through the drive shaft, directly driving the planetary gear carrier, which then drives the left and right half-shafts via the planetary gears, respectively powering the left and right wheels. Components of the differential: A standard differential consists of parts such as planetary gears, planetary gear carrier (differential housing), and half-shaft gears.

What to Do When the Driver's License Exceeds Its Validity Period?

Methods to handle an expired driver's license: 1. Within one year: The driver's license will not be canceled. The driver only needs to renew the license within one year after the expiration date to extend its validity. 2. Between one and two years: If the driver's license has been expired for more than one year, it will be canceled. However, if the cancellation period does not exceed two years, the driver can restore the normal use of the license by passing a relevant knowledge test, thereby extending its validity. 3. More than two years: If the driver's license has been canceled for more than two years, it cannot be restored. The driver will need to go through the normal process of obtaining a new driver's license.

What Are the Methods for Repairing Car Dents?

Car dents can be repaired through traditional metalworking. Here are specific tips for dealing with scratches: 1. Touch-up pen: Use a touch-up pen for coloring. Although this method is not as effective as professional repair at a beauty shop, it can prevent rust from spreading and worsening for small or inconspicuous scratches. 2. Apply toothpaste: When you find new small scratches on the car body, gently apply toothpaste in a circular motion on the scratched area. Reapply after rain or washing the car. This generally helps reduce the visibility of scratches and provides a simple barrier to prevent rust, which is effective in the short term. 3. Waxing: Very minor damage can be removed with regular maintenance wax. For heavier scratches, use what is commonly known as "rubbing compound," a wax with stronger polishing power. Before waxing, make sure to wash the car thoroughly to remove dust and debris. It's important not to use too much wax—just enough to cover the damaged area.
