Yes, it can. As long as the first maintenance is done at a 4S shop, the new car can still enjoy the three guarantees even if subsequent maintenance is not performed at a 4S shop. The following are precautions for new car maintenance: 1. Abnormal sounds: Pay attention to the sounds from various parts of the vehicle. Once an abnormal sound is detected, accurately determine whether it comes from inside or outside the car. If it is confirmed to come from inside, the problem should not be serious; if it comes from outside, stop and check immediately. 2. Instrument faults: Frequently observe the pointers on the instrument panel and pay attention to the icons displayed. If a red light appears on the instrument panel, continuing to drive may cause engine damage. Stop and turn off the engine for inspection as soon as possible.

How often should a turbocharged engine be cleaned?

Turbochargers do not require cleaning unless for aesthetic purposes. Routine maintenance is also unnecessary. When starting a cold engine, let it idle without revving up initially. Avoid prolonged idling when the engine is warm to prevent inadequate lubrication. Additionally, allow the engine to idle for over a minute before shutting it off after driving to protect the turbocharger. Here are key maintenance points for turbochargers: 1. Warm up carefully: After starting the engine, avoid pressing the accelerator pedal abruptly. Let the engine idle for one or two minutes first. This allows sufficient lubrication for the turbocharger before increasing engine speed to drive. Especially in winter, extend the warm-up idling time to 3-5 minutes, and refrain from aggressively revving to accelerate warming up, as this may damage the turbocharger oil seal. 2. Shut down gently: Do not suddenly turn off a high-speed turbocharged engine, especially after intense high-speed driving. Let the engine idle for about 3 minutes before shutting it off to allow the turbocharger rotor speed to gradually decrease. 3. Maintain cleanliness: Regularly clean the air filter to prevent dust and other impurities from entering the high-speed rotating compressor impeller, which could cause unstable rotation speed or accelerated wear on the bushing and seals.

Why do manual transmissions require constant gear shifting?

Because each gear in a car's transmission corresponds to a specific speed range, constant gear shifting is necessary. Below is some information about transmissions: 1. Introduction: A transmission, also known as a gearbox, is an automotive component used to alter the speed and torque from the engine, and it can fix or change the gear ratio between the output and input shafts in steps. 2. Principle: A manual transmission mainly consists of gears and shafts, achieving speed and torque changes through different gear combinations; whereas an automatic transmission is composed of a torque converter, planetary gears, and a hydraulic control system, achieving speed and torque changes via hydraulic transmission and gear combinations.

What are the effects of high temperature on a car engine?

The effects on the engine are as follows: 1. Increased wear: The expansion of engine components reduces the clearance between parts, intensifying engine wear. 2. Reduced lifespan: It causes the engine oil viscosity to decrease, leading to accelerated wear of components and a shortened engine lifespan. 3. Damage to the cylinder head gasket: This may result in cross-flow between water, oil, and air passages on the gasket, causing oil to enter the radiator or water to mix with engine oil. Additional information: An engine is a machine that converts other forms of energy into mechanical energy, including internal combustion engines (reciprocating piston engines), external combustion engines (Stirling engines, steam engines, etc.), jet engines, electric motors, etc.

After the car engine is turned off, the air conditioner will shut down, so it will not consume battery power. Here is some relevant information about car air conditioners: 1. Function: It is used to adjust and control the temperature, humidity, air cleanliness, and airflow inside the car cabin to an optimal state, providing a comfortable environment for passengers, reducing travel fatigue, creating good working conditions for the driver, and playing an important role in ensuring safe driving as a ventilation device. 2. Layout: The layout involves assembling components such as the evaporator, heater radiator, centrifugal blower, and control mechanism together, known as the air conditioner assembly.
