Geely's CVT transmission is of excellent quality, and its lifespan largely depends on the service life of the steel belt. With ordinary material pressure steel belts, the designed service life can reach 30 years or more. For a well-maintained CVT transmission, it can generally last for 200,000 to 300,000 kilometers or about 15 to 20 years. Below are some methods to extend the transmission's lifespan. 1. Replace the transmission oil according to the specified time or mileage: Although many manufacturers claim that the transmission is maintenance-free for life, the replacement cycle for transmission oil is between 60,000 to 80,000 kilometers (varies by model). After the first maintenance, it is recommended to replace the oil every 40,000 to 60,000 kilometers to prevent the transmission oil from deteriorating. 2. Avoid keeping the gear in D for extended periods while driving: Keeping the gear in D means the transmission is working, with internal parts rubbing against each other and stirring the oil, which raises the transmission's temperature. Over time, this can cause the transmission oil to degrade prematurely, reducing its lubrication or cooling effectiveness, thereby increasing transmission wear. 3. Pay attention to daily driving habits: Gear and speed should match; avoid high speed in low gear or low speed in high gear. Also, avoid coasting in neutral, as a vehicle without power not only interrupts the transmission's oil supply but can also easily damage internal parts.

What Does Third-Party Liability Insurance in Auto Insurance Cover?

Third-party liability insurance covers the repair costs of the third party's vehicle, damages to the third party's car body caused by the insured, and medical compensation for the driver, among others. Additional information is as follows: 1. Third-party liability insurance: Refers to the financial liability that the insured or their permitted driver must bear under the law when an accident occurs during the use of the insured vehicle, resulting in bodily injury, death, or direct property damage to a third party, for which the insurance company is responsible for compensation. 2. Classification of third-party liability insurance: It can be divided into voluntary liability insurance and compulsory liability insurance based on whether it is mandatory. According to the scope of coverage, it can be classified into third-party bodily injury liability insurance and third-party property damage liability insurance. Compulsory liability insurance can be further divided into relatively compulsory insurance and absolutely compulsory insurance based on the degree of compulsion.

Why is there a ticking sound after the engine shuts off?

This is a normal sound caused by the thermal expansion and contraction of the engine. The reasons and solutions for the ticking sound after the engine shuts off are as follows: 1. Uneven cooling of the engine: After driving for a while, the engine temperature is very high. After shutting off, the temperature of various components decreases unevenly, and the thermal expansion and contraction cannot be exactly the same, which will cause friction between the metal components inside the engine and produce abnormal sounds. Solution: Do not turn off the engine immediately after parking. 2. Exhaust pipe, three-way catalytic converter, and turbo cooling: After shutting off, the high-temperature exhaust pipe and three-way catalytic converter cool down faster, deform more significantly, and exhibit noticeable thermal expansion and contraction, resulting in abnormal sounds. (Normal phenomenon, no solution available)

What speed can a 94V tire run?

94V represents the load index and speed rating of the tire. The load index 94 indicates that the maximum load capacity of the tire is 670Kg, while the speed rating V signifies that the tire's maximum speed is 240KM/h. Therefore, a 94V tire has a maximum load capacity of 670Kg and a top speed of 240KM/h. The following explanations detail the meaning of a 94V tire: 1. Explanation one: A 94V tire means that the tire can carry a maximum load of 670KG and has a top speed of 240 kilometers per hour. 2. Explanation two: 94 is the load index of the tire, corresponding to a maximum load capacity of 670KG per tire. V denotes the speed rating of the tire, indicating the maximum speed at which the tire can carry its specified load under defined conditions, with V representing a top speed of 240 kilometers per hour.

What is the normal engine RPM when starting the car?

Different vehicle models have varying cold start RPM values due to differences in engines. The cold start RPM for engines typically ranges between 1,000 and 1,400 RPM. Generally, the idle speed ranges from 500 to 850 RPM, while the instantaneous idle speed during a cold start is around 1,500 to 2,000 RPM. Once the engine coolant temperature returns to 90 degrees, the idle speed will stabilize within the specified range. Additional information about car idling is as follows: 1. There is a high idle process after a cold start, which is more noticeable in winter. This phenomenon is controlled by the vehicle's onboard computer (in vehicles with electronic throttle control systems). 2. When the engine reaches a certain temperature, the idle speed will return to normal. This helps accelerate the engine temperature to normal operating conditions during a cold start.

Which Lights Should Be Turned On in a Car During Snowy Weather?

In snowy or rainy weather, you can turn on the headlights, clearance lights, and rear position lights. The "Regulations for the Implementation of the Road Traffic Safety Law of the People's Republic of China" stipulate: 1. Article 58: When a motor vehicle is driving at night without streetlights, under poor lighting conditions, or in situations of low visibility such as fog, rain, snow, dust, or hail, the headlights, clearance lights, and rear position lights should be turned on. However, high beams should not be used when a vehicle is closely following another vehicle traveling in the same direction. Motor vehicles driving in foggy conditions should turn on fog lights and hazard warning flashers. 2. Article 59: When a motor vehicle passes through sharp curves, slopes, arched bridges, crosswalks, or intersections without traffic signal control at night, it should alternately use high and low beams to signal.

What Causes the Brake Noise in Range Rover?

There are many reasons for abnormal brake noise at low speeds, such as severely worn brake pads or excessive wear of the brake drum. Here are the specific reasons: Severely Worn Brake Pads: Abnormal brake noise at low speeds is likely due to severely worn brake pads. The warning piece will emit a sharp abnormal sound to prompt replacement. Alternatively, it could be caused by excessive wear of the brake disc or brake drum, where they become too thin and produce noise. It might also occur after recently replacing the brake pads, where the contact surface with the brake disc or drum does not fit properly, leading to point or line contact and resulting in noise. Brake Pads Not Replaced for a Long Time: The replacement cycle for brake pads is not fixed; it depends on the vehicle's driving conditions, the frequency of the driver pressing the brake pedal, and the force applied.
