China VI new cars still require a break-in period. Here is relevant knowledge about new car break-in: 1. China VI is merely a national emission standard for testing pollutant levels in exhaust gases, which has no direct relationship with the break-in period. Therefore, any new car still needs to undergo proper break-in. 2. In the past, due to less advanced automotive manufacturing processes, produced components were relatively rough and did not fit together perfectly when installed in vehicles, necessitating a break-in period for these parts to adapt to each other. 3. Today's automotive industry can utilize industrial robots and automated programming to manufacture more precise and durable automotive components that can operate smoothly immediately after installation. Although modern vehicles have lower break-in requirements, this doesn't mean they don't need any break-in at all.

What are the symptoms of a faulty car engine ignition coil?

Ignition coil failure symptoms: Generally, the number of ignition coils corresponds to the number of cylinders in the engine. If an ignition coil is severely damaged, causing insufficient spark from the spark plug to ignite the air-fuel mixture or complete absence of spark, the engine will experience a misfire. The specific symptom is engine shaking: Due to the imbalance in power generation caused by the misfire, the engine will exhibit severe vibrations during operation. If there are too many misfiring cylinders or two adjacent power-generating cylinders misfire simultaneously, the engine is highly likely to fail to start normally.

How to Know the Production Date of a Tire?

The production date of a car tire is generally represented by a four-digit number, where the first two digits indicate the production week and the last two digits represent the production year. Here is the relevant information: 1. The production date of a car tire is part of a series of alphanumeric characters starting with DOT, which stands for U.S. Department of Transportation certification. 2. The following numbers and letters represent the tire's origin information and factory code. 3. The last four digits indicate the production date. 4. Generally, the maximum speed on highways is controlled at 120 km/h, but as tires are continuously used, their load-bearing capacity weakens, and changes in road temperature can also reduce the maximum speed rating. Therefore, manufacturers equip tires with a speed rating several levels higher than the 120 km/h limit to ensure vehicle safety.

What is the ground clearance of the Equinox?

The minimum ground clearance of the Equinox when unloaded is 199 mm, and when fully loaded, it is 170 mm. More details about the Equinox's ground clearance are as follows: 1. Minimum ground clearance: Refers to the distance from the lowest point of the chassis to the ground when the vehicle is fully loaded. The Equinox has an approach angle of 24 degrees and a departure angle of 19.2 degrees. 2. Ground clearance reflects the vehicle's ability to pass over obstacles or uneven surfaces without collision: The greater the ground clearance, the stronger the vehicle's ability to pass over obstacles or uneven surfaces; the smaller the ground clearance, the weaker this ability. 3. The ground clearance of the new Equinox has become smaller: The new Equinox features a front MacPherson strut and rear multi-link suspension combination, with an approach angle of 19°, a departure angle of 23°, and a minimum ground clearance of 158 mm.
