2021 Xingrui fuel tank noise issue has been resolved. Definition of Fuel Tank: A fuel tank is a container used in vehicles such as cars or aircraft to store fuel, specifically designed to hold hydraulic oil in hydraulic systems. Functions of Fuel Tank: In addition to storing gasoline, the fuel tank can also dissipate heat and separate air bubbles from the oil. It can be classified into two types: open fuel tanks and closed fuel tanks. Hydraulic Oil: Hydraulic oil is the hydraulic medium used in hydraulic systems that utilize liquid pressure energy. It plays roles in energy transmission, wear resistance, system lubrication, corrosion prevention, rust prevention, and cooling within the hydraulic system.

As an owner of the 2021 Xingrui, I experienced a sloshing noise from the fuel tank about half a year after taking delivery, especially noticeable when the tank was half full. I specifically visited the dealership, and they identified it as a design issue—the fuel tank lacked an internal baffle, causing excessive fuel sloshing noise. Geely actually issued a technical bulletin by the end of 2021, offering free replacement with an improved fuel tank. After the replacement, I've driven over 10,000 kilometers without any recurrence of the noise. I recommend other owners encountering this issue to directly register for a claim. The entire process takes about three hours and is completely free, including both parts and labor. Essentially, this isn't a major fault, just an annoyance to the ears.

Can I take the Subject 1 exam on Saturday?

Subject 1 exams are not scheduled on Saturdays or Sundays. Subject 1, also known as the Subject 1 theoretical exam or driver theory test, is part of the motor vehicle driver's license assessment. The total duration of the Subject 1 exam is 45 minutes. The test paper consists of 100 questions, including true/false questions and multiple-choice questions, with a full score of 100 points and a passing score of 90. The test papers are randomly selected and combined by the computer driver examination system according to the proportion specified in the "Motor Vehicle Driver's License Work Specifications". Content of the Subject 1 exam: The exam content includes the most basic knowledge such as driving theory fundamentals, road safety laws and regulations, traffic signals, traffic rules, plus local regulations. The scheduling of driver theory exams is arranged independently by local vehicle management offices.

Will the Brake Discs of a New Car Rust?

Brake discs can rust, which is not a quality issue with the car, nor does it indicate that the car has been in stock for a long time. This is a normal phenomenon. Since brake discs are primarily made of iron and lack any anti-rust treatment, they will rust when exposed to moisture in the air. Solution for Slight Rust: If the brake discs have slight rust, it can usually be removed through normal braking. The principle is that the friction between the brake pads and the brake discs will wear away the rust. After braking a few times, the brake discs will shine like new. If there are areas the brake pads don't reach, you can remove the wheel and use fine sandpaper to polish the brake disc. Solution for Heavy Rust: If the corrosion is severe, relying on the braking system to remove the rust may not be effective, especially if the car has been left idle for an extended period, making the rust more stubborn. In such cases, the car should be taken to a specialized repair shop for professional servicing by a technician. If the rust is extremely severe, the brake discs may need to be removed and professionally polished or resurfaced.

How long does it take to repair a small dent in car sheet metal?

If the dent on the car is relatively small, the repair time is approximately one hour. Here is relevant information about automotive sheet metal repair: 1. Material Requirements: Sheet metal materials must have excellent plasticity, meaning the ability to undergo permanent deformation under external forces without being damaged. For cold-worked components, good cold plasticity is required, such as automotive stamped parts; for hot-worked components, good thermal plasticity is necessary, such as hot-forged spring steel plates and hot-riveted rivets. The material should also have good weldability, ensuring high welding strength and low cracking tendency. It should be cost-effective and economically practical. Additionally, it must possess good chemical stability and maintain precise dimensional accuracy and internal quality of the sheet. 2. Concept: Automotive sheet metal repair involves the complete restoration of faulty or damaged vehicle bodies.

Will the Engine Stall in Fourth Gear Without Accelerating?

If the vehicle is already in motion and shifted into fourth gear, it can continue to run without pressing the accelerator, but the speed will gradually decrease. Once the speed drops to a certain level, the car will start to shake and eventually stall. Fourth Gear in Cars: The fourth gear in a car is a driving gear primarily used for prolonged high-speed and economical driving. The most fuel-efficient speed for most vehicles typically occurs in the lower speed range of fourth gear, generally between 45-56 km/h. Gear Shifting Principle: Manual transmission vehicles achieve gear ratio changes by switching different gear sets. As a key component in power distribution, the transmission must have two main parts: the power input shaft and the output shaft, along with the gears that make up the transmission. These are the most basic components of a manual transmission. Car Accelerator: The accelerator in a gasoline engine primarily controls the throttle opening size. A smaller opening means less air-fuel mixture enters the cylinder, resulting in lower engine power output, and vice versa. The more air-fuel mixture enters the cylinder, the greater the combustion force, which in turn increases the force pushing the piston, speeds up piston movement, and consequently increases engine speed.

What is the fuel consumption in Phase IV?

In Phase IV, the average fuel consumption of passenger vehicles in China was 5.0 liters per 100 kilometers. Research Background: After a long period of development, China's commercial vehicle market has entered a period of rapid growth in the past decade, with the development of heavy-duty commercial vehicles being particularly remarkable. However, the high pollution and high fuel consumption caused by heavy-duty commercial vehicles have also been persistent concerns. To curb the high fuel consumption of heavy-duty commercial vehicles and promote the adoption and use of clean technologies in commercial vehicles, China has introduced a series of fuel consumption limit standards for commercial vehicles over the past decade. Phase IV Fuel Consumption: The Phase IV fuel consumption standard for commercial vehicles in China is a crucial step in promoting the development of the commercial vehicle industry. The selection of driving cycles is particularly important. It is recommended to further introduce slope testing in the bench testing of fuel consumption standards, which will improve the alignment between fuel consumption standards and actual driving conditions. Additionally, it will encourage the adoption of more advanced energy-saving auxiliary technologies in new vehicle models.

What Oil Can Replace Hydraulic Oil?

Engine oil, gear oil, or transmission oil can be used. Here is some relevant information about hydraulic oil: 1. Characteristics: It has good anti-foaming properties, ensuring stable power transmission and preventing accelerated oxidation of the hydraulic oil. It also has excellent rust prevention and oxidation stability, making it less prone to oxidation and degradation, thus extending its service life. It has suitable viscosity and good viscosity-temperature performance, enabling accurate and sensitive power transmission while ensuring normal lubrication of hydraulic components. 2. Function: Hydraulic oil is the hydraulic medium used in hydraulic systems that utilize liquid pressure energy. It plays roles in energy transmission, wear resistance, system lubrication, corrosion prevention, rust prevention, and cooling within the hydraulic system.
