New car with over 1,000 kilometers driven can undergo its first maintenance. Maintenance cycle: 4S shops will determine the vehicle maintenance cycle based on the actual local driving conditions, which may differ from the maintenance cycle recommended in the official manual for certain parts. Maintenance precautions: If the local environment is harsh and road conditions are poor, the maintenance cycle should be appropriately shortened, especially for the air filter element and cabin air filter element. Additionally, the quality and specifications of various fluids must not be mistaken; choose fluids with appropriate specifications and better quality. The replacement of brake pads, wiper blades, batteries, tires, etc., depends on wear and tear, so regular inspections are necessary.

Reasons for the Screen Staying On and Not Powering Off After Engine Shutdown?

It might have been manually turned on and thus requires manual shutdown. Below are relevant explanations: 1. Precautions: Normally, avoid pressing the buttons; keep the middle switch untouched. The light will naturally turn off after ignition and driving. If the left or right switches are manually pressed, the light must be manually turned off to extinguish. There might be a delay before the light automatically turns off after shutdown. You can enter the central console for settings after ignition. If this doesn't work, directly visit a 4S store for resolution. 2. Using an Automotive Diagnostic Tool: Utilize an automotive diagnostic tool to access the SMK system and read the data stream. If both the ACC input circuit and the battery circuit (when the engine is off) show an ON status, it indicates a current short-circuit condition. The likely cause of the short circuit could be an issue with the power supply module, necessitating prompt inspection and repair of the relay.

What Does the Car Grille Mean?

Car grille mainly functions for air intake and ventilation of components like the radiator, engine, and air conditioning, preventing damage from external objects to internal parts while driving, as well as enhancing aesthetics and showcasing individuality. In automotive engineering, the grille is used to cover the body to allow air to enter. Most vehicles have a front car grille to protect the radiator and engine. More details are as follows: 1. Grille Location: In automotive engineering, the grille is used to cover the body to allow air to enter. Most vehicles have a front-mounted car grille, while other common locations include under the front bumper, in front of the wheels, at the front for cabin ventilation, or on the rear trunk lid. 2. Material: Currently, the material for metal grilles is mainly aviation aluminum as the base material, as it is lighter than stainless steel. Aviation aluminum is also cheaper than stainless steel, so many manufacturers use aviation aluminum.

Is it necessary to warm up the car after starting it?

It is necessary to warm up the car after starting it, and the correct method to do so is: 1. Start the vehicle and keep the air conditioning turned off; 2. Let the engine idle for 30 seconds to 1 minute; 3. Begin driving slowly once the engine runs smoothly; 4. Once the engine coolant temperature gauge rises by 1 to 2 bars, you can drive normally and turn on the air conditioning. The reasons why a car needs to be warmed up are: 1. After the car has been parked for a long time, the engine oil flows back into the oil pan at the bottom of the engine; 2. Before the engine reaches its operating temperature, the fuel supply system cannot effectively vaporize the gasoline completely due to the lower temperature; 3. When parked, the gear oil flows to the lower part of the transmission, leaving the upper part of the transmission without lubrication when the car is cold.

What Causes Water Accumulation in the Passenger Seat?

Water accumulation in the passenger seat may be caused by air conditioning leaks, sunroof leaks, forgetting to close the windows, or leakage from the small heater core. Below are the specific details: 1. Causes of leaks: It could be due to air conditioning leaks, caused by a blocked air conditioning drain hole, leading to water accumulation in the passenger seat. Sunroof leaks can also cause this, as water from a sunroof leak typically flows through the passenger seat. Another reason is forgetting to close the windows or doors, allowing rainwater to enter or resulting from a flooded car. Water in the passenger seat can also occur if the car has passed through deep water, causing the sponge material in the passenger seat to absorb water. 2. Leakage from the small heater core: There is a small heater core near the footwell on the passenger side, used for heating in winter. It is connected to the engine radiator's coolant circulation system to utilize the engine's heat for winter warmth. If a leak is detected, it is usually due to a leak in the small heater core or loose connecting hoses.
