First, you need to have purchased vehicle damage insurance to be eligible for full compensation. Below is an introduction to compensation after a vehicle has been submerged in water: 1. Engine damage caused by driving through water: If the engine is damaged due to driving through water, and if you have purchased water ingress insurance, the engine will be covered under the insurance policy. If you have not purchased water ingress insurance, the insurance company will only cover the cleaning costs, and engine repair expenses will not be included in the insurance coverage. 2. Vehicle damage insurance: Vehicle damage insurance is the primary coverage, while water ingress insurance is a derivative policy. The full name of water ingress insurance is 'Engine Damage Insurance Due to Water Ingress Driving,' which means that during the insurance period, if the insured vehicle is damaged due to improper operation after driving through water or being submerged, the insurance company will provide compensation within the coverage limits. To add water ingress insurance, you must first have vehicle damage insurance.

Where is the PEPS module located in the Haval H6?

The transmission control module of the Haval H6 is located on the transmission housing. Function of the control module: The transmission control module of the Haval H6 is mainly responsible for controlling the gear position of the transmission based on the engine speed. A module, also known as a component, is a collection of program statements (i.e., a combination of program code and data structures) that can be individually named and independently perform certain functions. Characteristics of the control module: It has two basic characteristics: external characteristics and internal characteristics. External characteristics refer to the interface through which the module connects with the external environment (i.e., the way other modules or programs call this module, including input/output parameters and referenced global variables) and the function of the module. Internal characteristics refer to the features of the module's internal environment (i.e., the local data and program code of the module).

Haval Big Dog: Should I Buy the 1.5T or 2.0T?

Haval Big Dog: Should I Buy the 1.5T or 2.0T? It mainly depends on the owner's budget. If the budget is sufficient, then the top-tier 2.0T Chinese Pastoral Dog version is the best choice. 1.5T Haval Big Dog Powertrain: The 1.5T Haval Big Dog is equipped with a 1.5T turbocharged engine, delivering a maximum power of 169 horsepower (124 kW). It is paired with a 7-speed dual-clutch transmission. 2.0T Chinese Pastoral Dog Version Powertrain: The Chinese Pastoral Dog version features a 2.0T engine from the 4N20 series, paired with a 7-speed wet dual-clutch transmission, producing a maximum power of 211 horsepower and a peak torque of 325 Nm. As the top-tier Big Dog model, it comes with BorgWarner's fifth-generation Haldax all-wheel-drive system, enabling a 50:50 power distribution between the front and rear axles. Additionally, it includes a rear axle differential lock, supporting crawl mode and off-road expert mode, providing significantly stronger off-road capabilities compared to its competitors.

Why are there few people buying the Haval F7x?

The reasons why few people buy the Haval F7x are as follows: High failure rate of the Haval F7: According to data provided by the car quality website, the Haval F7 has received 1,936 quality complaints in just one year. Among them, faults in the car's internet system, audio system, and navigation issues account for 60% of the total complaints. In addition, brake noise and body rust problems also account for 10% of the complaints. Fortunately, complaints about the three major components are relatively few, as Great Wall's 1.5T/2.0T + 7-speed dual-clutch transmission system is already quite mature and widely used in its models. Therefore, the F7 still has good reliability in terms of the three major components. Issues with the target consumer group: The Haval F7 is targeted at young people, but the main audience of Haval is still middle-aged people aged 35-55. Therefore, these people prefer to choose the more mature and conservative Haval H6 model.

Can You Add 95 Octane Gasoline After Adding 92 Octane?

It is not recommended to add 95 octane gasoline after using 92 octane. If you accidentally use the wrong gasoline grade occasionally, simply switch back to the correct grade after consuming the current fuel. However, prolonged use of the wrong gasoline grade can have the following effects: For vehicles designed for lower octane fuel, using higher octane gasoline will not cause damage, but the increased octane rating can alter the fuel's ignition point, leading to delayed combustion in the engine. This results in reduced engine power output and thermal efficiency, with the practical effect being poorer performance. For vehicles designed for higher octane fuel, using lower octane gasoline can cause engine knocking. Since the octane rating is significantly lower, the reduced ignition point may cause premature ignition during the compression stroke. If combustion occurs before the spark plug fires, resistance will develop during the upward stroke. This resistance makes the engine run very unevenly. Mild knocking may only increase noise without obvious engine damage, but noticeable knocking indicates severe engine conditions, affecting not only driving stability but also causing abnormal wear on pistons and cylinders, potentially leading to cylinder scoring. Besides checking the recommended gasoline grade in the vehicle's manual, you can also find it on the fuel filler cap. Typically, the gasoline grade can be determined by the engine's compression ratio: vehicles with a compression ratio between 8.6-9.9 should use 92 octane, those between 10.0-11.5 should use 95 octane, and higher compression ratios may require 98 octane. However, with modern technologies, the compression ratio alone may not determine the required gasoline grade, as high compression ratio engines can be tuned to use lower octane fuel. Other factors like ignition timing, turbocharging technology, and Atkinson cycle technology also play a role. Generally, higher octane gasoline has a higher octane rating and better anti-knock properties. 92 octane gasoline contains 92% isooctane and 8% n-heptane, while 95 octane gasoline contains 95% isooctane and 5% n-heptane.

Can the Haval H6 be driven away without the car key?

Haval H6 cannot be driven away without the car key, but it can be started without the key. Keyless start method for Haval H6: First, press the start button once, and after the ACC light turns on, press the start button again. At this point, the one-button start will turn green, and the vehicle will perform a self-check. After the self-check is completed, press the brake and press the one-button start once more to start the vehicle. Definition of the keyless start system: The keyless start system (Keyless-Start-System) allows the vehicle to be started without physically turning a key. The key can be kept in a bag or pocket, and the engine can be ignited by pressing a button inside the car or turning a knob. This system is more convenient and enhances the sense of luxury and technology. Generally, when the key is within an effective detection range of about 1.5 meters from the main door, the ID of the key chip will automatically match with the engine's ID. Once successfully paired, the car door will unlock without the need for a key.
