Synthetic engine oil that has been used for 13,000 kilometers is best not to continue using, as it poses significant risks. Below are the classifications of engine oil: 1. Diesel Engine Oil: There are two main criteria for selecting the quality grade of diesel engine lubricating oil. One is based on the combined mechanical and thermal loads of the automobile engine, expressed by the intensification coefficient; the other is based on the severity of the engine's operating conditions. 2. Gasoline Engine Oil: The appropriate performance grade (quality grade) of gasoline engine oil should be selected based on the severity of the engine's operating conditions, the additional devices in the intake and exhaust systems of imported vehicles, and the production year. Never use a lower quality grade oil to replace a higher quality grade oil, as this can lead to engine failure or even damage.

Does the Arrizo 5 Have Tire Pressure Monitoring?

Arrizo 5 is equipped with tire pressure monitoring, and its usage is as follows: 1. The tire pressure values are displayed on the central LCD screen of the instrument panel. To view the tire pressure, simply press the LCD adjustment button on the left side of the steering wheel to switch to the tire pressure monitoring system interface. For other versions of the model, a tire pressure monitoring system can be additionally installed. The system compatible with the Arrizo 5 can display the interface by reprogramming the instrument panel computer. 2. When the tire pressure of the Arrizo 5 is low, the tire pressure indicator light will illuminate, and the tire pressure display system on the LCD screen will flash to alert the driver to the position of the underinflated tire. In this case, simply adjust the tire pressure to the standard value and drive at a steady speed of 40 km/h for a period of time. After the tire pressure monitoring system completes the pressure re-matching, the tire pressure alarm will be deactivated. 3. If the Arrizo 5 tire pressure monitoring system continues to alarm despite normal tire pressure, there may be an abnormality in the system. The most common cause is that the battery of a tire pressure sensor in one of the tires is nearly depleted or already dead. In this case, simply deflate the tire, remove the tire pressure sensor, and replace the battery.

What is the fuel consumption of Changan Oshan X7?

Changan Oshan X7's actual fuel consumption is not fixed, ranging from 8-12L per 100 kilometers, while the MIIT comprehensive fuel consumption is 7.4L per 100 kilometers. The following is a detailed introduction to Changan Oshan X7: 1. Changan Oshan X7 is equipped with the Blue Whale 1.5TGDI engine, which has won the "China Heart Top Ten Engines" award. This new 280T engine has a maximum power of 131Kw and a maximum torque of 265Nm, surpassing same-displacement engines from brands like BMW, Buick, and Honda. It reaches the peak torque of 265Nm at 1450rpm. 2. Despite its powerful performance, the engine adopts strong scavenging technology, which uses the positive pressure difference between the intake and exhaust pipes to directly sweep fresh air into the exhaust system, reducing residual exhaust gas in the cylinder, improving charging efficiency, and enhancing engine performance. The low-end torque of the engine is increased by over 20%, significantly improving starting performance. The shift strategy is optimized to achieve engine downspeed, significantly reducing fuel consumption. 3. Changan Oshan X7 is matched with a DCT dual-clutch transmission developed by the UK R&D center, featuring rapid throttle response and excellent acceleration performance.
