If there is no U-turn signal, and the gap is marked with a dashed line, the U-turn is not affected by the left turn signal and does not require crossing the pedestrian crossing. If the gap is marked with a solid line, then the U-turn must cross the pedestrian crossing and is subject to the left turn signal. Making a direct U-turn without following these rules may result in being photographed or penalized by on-site traffic police. If you need to cross the pedestrian crossing to make a U-turn, you must yield to pedestrians: When pedestrians are walking on the right side of the crosswalk and have not reached the centerline of the road, vehicles on the left side of the road should slow down and allow them to pass safely. When pedestrians are waiting outside the boundary line of the motorized and non-motorized lanes and have not entered the roadway, vehicles should slow down and allow them to pass safely. If pedestrians have crossed the boundary line between the motorized and non-motorized lanes, vehicles that do not stop to let them pass are committing a violation and should be penalized. When pedestrians enter the motorized lane (Lane A) via the crosswalk, vehicles in Lane B should slow down and allow them to pass safely. If vehicles in Lane A do not stop to let them pass, it is a violation and should be penalized. If pedestrians are waiting at the centerline of the road without entering the motorized lane, vehicles that do not stop to let them pass are committing a violation and should be penalized. If pedestrians cross the centerline of the road and enter the motorized lane, vehicles that do not stop to let them pass are committing a violation and should be penalized. If the road is divided by a green belt and pedestrians are waiting in the middle of the road, vehicles must slow down and allow them to pass safely. Scenarios where U-turns are allowed: If there is a U-turn sign at the intersection, you can make a U-turn. If there is a U-turn signal light, follow its instructions. If there is no signal light, make the U-turn based on the specific situation, ensuring it does not interfere with other vehicles or pedestrians. If the intersection does not explicitly prohibit U-turns or left turns, you can make a U-turn. 'No explicit prohibition' means there are no 'No U-turn' or 'No Left Turn' signs, and the centerline is not solid. U-turns are also allowed in yellow grid zones. Yellow grid lines indicate no-stopping zones, typically at intersections prone to congestion or near important facilities. While stopping in these zones is prohibited, U-turns are allowed unless there is a central barrier. If there is a U-turn signal light at the intersection, you must wait for the green light to make a U-turn. If 'No Left Turn' and 'U-turn Allowed' signs appear together, U-turns are permitted, but left turns are not. Note that 'No U-turn' is not the same as 'No Left Turn'. Things to note when making a U-turn at an intersection: Check the road markings. If they are solid lines, U-turns are prohibited under any circumstances. Continue driving to find a suitable spot. If there is a 'No Left Turn' sign, even if there is no explicit 'No U-turn' sign, U-turns are not allowed because U-turns inherently involve a left turn. U-turns must be made from the innermost left-turn lane. If you are in the second left-turn lane, U-turns are not permitted at that intersection. Always yield to oncoming traffic when making a U-turn. If you interfere with straight-moving vehicles, you will bear full responsibility for any accidents. Near the stop line at intersections, lanes usually have guiding arrows. The leftmost lane does not always have a left-turn arrow—if it has a straight arrow, U-turns are prohibited even if there are no explicit 'No U-turn' signs.

Is It Necessary to Change the Engine Oil When Replacing the Oil Filter?

Replacing the oil filter requires changing the engine oil. The steps for replacing the oil filter are as follows: 1. After turning off and cooling the vehicle, open the engine hood and unscrew the engine oil filler cap; 2. Lift the vehicle and unscrew the oil drain plug on the engine oil pan; 3. Use an oil bucket to collect the waste oil, wait for it to drain completely, let it sit for ten minutes, and then tighten the drain plug; 4. Lower the vehicle, remove the oil filter using tools, and replace it with a new one. The replacement interval for the oil filter varies depending on the type of oil: 1. For mineral oil, the replacement interval is 3,000 to 4,000 kilometers or six months; 2. For semi-synthetic oil, the replacement interval is 5,000 to 6,000 kilometers or six months; 3. For full synthetic oil, the replacement interval is 8,000 to 10,000 kilometers or eight months.

What gear should an automatic transmission tow truck be in?

An automatic transmission tow truck should be in N gear. The method to operate an automatic transmission vehicle is: 1. Start the car with the gear in N or P position; 2. After starting the engine, wait a few seconds before shifting gears to allow sufficient lubrication of the transmission, depress the brake pedal to engage the correct gear, release the brake pedal, and the vehicle will start normally; 3. When driving on the road, place the gear shift lever in D gear and gradually increase the throttle; 4. When driving on short and small slopes, place the lever in D or L gear and control the throttle to complete the uphill; 5. When driving downhill, use D gear in conjunction with the brake to control the vehicle; 6. When driving on snow, place the lever in L gear and start with L gear to prevent the drive wheels from slipping, then shift to D gear after the car starts moving.

What is the typical fuel consumption of the CR-V in urban areas?

The actual fuel consumption in urban areas is 7.5-8.5 liters per 100km. Below are some related introductions about fuel consumption: 1. Vehicle-related reasons: As an internal control unit of the car, the oxygen sensor mainly monitors the air-fuel ratio of the engine. Once it is damaged, it will cause an imbalance in the engine's air-fuel ratio, leading to a sudden increase in fuel consumption. When the oxygen sensor is damaged, the vehicle will emit darker exhaust from the tailpipe while driving. 2. "Three filters" not replaced for a long time: During the use of the vehicle, the three filters (oil filter, air filter, and fuel filter) must be replaced regularly. If they are not replaced for a long time, they will become dirty and affect performance, sending incorrect information to the engine control unit, resulting in incomplete fuel combustion and increased engine carbon deposits.

What is the normal turbo boost pressure for Volkswagen?

For Volkswagen turbochargers, the normal pressure range is between 1.2bar and 1.5bar. The boost pressure sensor is located in front of the throttle control unit. This sensor is supplied with 5V power and ground by the engine control unit. The sensor's signal is a 0~5V voltage proportional to the pressure. Under atmospheric pressure (sea level), the voltage is approximately 2.5V. This signal is used for boost pressure regulation. Turbocharging: It is a technology that uses exhaust gases produced by the operation of an internal combustion engine (Internal-Combustion-Engine) to drive an air compressor (Air-compressor). Commonly used in automotive engines, turbochargers can increase the horsepower output of internal combustion engines by utilizing the heat and flow of exhaust gases. Types: The boosting types of turbocharging include mechanical supercharging systems, pressure wave supercharging systems, exhaust gas turbocharging systems, and compound supercharging systems.

Where is the engine number located on the MG MG6?

The engine number of the MG MG6 is generally located on the left side of the engine, relatively close to the valve cover. It usually consists of a combination of 7 to 8 digits and letters. In addition to the above method, the engine number can also be viewed through the following 4 ways: The vehicle's driving license has the engine number printed on it, usually located on the second last line; The motor vehicle registration certificate will state the engine number; The car purchase invoice will state the engine number; The vehicle purchase tax payment certificate will state the engine number. It is important to note that the engine number is not the same as the engine model. The engine model refers to the specifications and size of the engine within the manufacturer, and engine models can be the same. The engine number refers to the production number of the engine, each engine can only use one engine number and each engine's number is unique.
