New orders require a waiting period of 3.5 months for delivery. Below are the relevant details: Configuration: The Tang DM-i emphasizes NVH performance, transmission efficiency, and fuel economy. According to official data, even the heaviest model, the Tang DM-i Flagship, can achieve 5.5L/100km in electric loss mode (without charging at all), with a comprehensive fuel-based driving range exceeding 1,000km. This is undoubtedly the core competitiveness of the DM-i series. Design Concept: However, BYD's DM-i emphasizes the attributes of domestic vehicles in terms of material accumulation, with the most typical case being the battery section. As a plug-in hybrid, the Tang DM-i offers two blade battery options: 8.3kWh and 21.5kWh, supporting pure electric driving ranges of 52km and 112km, respectively.

I just picked up my BYD Tang DM-i, and the whole process took about four months because I opted for the popular hybrid top trim version, ordered here in Shanghai. I asked the dealer earlier, and they said this model is in particularly high demand right now, with its excellent battery technology and fuel efficiency, so the order queue is packed, leading to longer wait times. If you're in a hurry, I'd suggest checking multiple dealerships for comparison or opting for standard configurations and colors, which might be quicker. Also, during the waiting period, remember to regularly follow up with the dealer to confirm the progress—don’t just wait passively. You can also study the manual in advance to familiarize yourself with the features. BYD's supply chain occasionally fluctuates, and waiting periods vary significantly by city, with second- and third-tier cities possibly having slightly shorter waits. In short, buying a car requires patience—stay informed and don’t let the waiting period go to waste.

Why is the engine warning light on in the Hongqi H5?

There are mainly 7 reasons why the engine warning light is on in the Hongqi H5: Sensor failure: The sensors mentioned here include water temperature, crankshaft position, air flow, intake temperature, oxygen sensors, etc. When these sensors are damaged, have poor contact, or their signals are interrupted, the car's ECU cannot accurately obtain engine data, which will cause the engine warning light to come on. Fuel quality issues: If fuel and engine oil are not added according to the manufacturer's requirements, it may cause engine wear and trigger the warning light. Poor combustion of the air-fuel mixture: Poor combustion can lead to engine carbon deposits or knocking. When detected by the oxygen sensor and reported to the ECU, the warning light will illuminate as a warning. Spark plug failure, ignition coil failure, fuel pump failure, and fuel line blockage can all cause poor combustion of the air-fuel mixture. Turbocharging issues: The intake turbocharging pipeline and turbocharger can also cause the engine warning light to come on. The most common issue is turbocharger damage, accompanied by symptoms such as oil leaks, high oil consumption, reduced power, metallic noises, and blue or black smoke from the exhaust pipe. Intake issues: If there is a problem with the car's intake, it may lead to engine pipeline blockage, and in severe cases, the engine warning light will come on. A dirty air filter that is not cleaned regularly can cause intake problems. Exhaust issues: Exhaust faults can also trigger the engine warning light. The rear oxygen sensor, catalytic converter, exhaust camshaft, and bearing failures are all causes of exhaust problems, with the catalytic converter being the most common. Using leaded gasoline, lead or silicon-based lubricant additives, physical damage to the catalytic converter, or fuel system failures can easily cause catalytic converter issues. Anti-theft system failure: If the car's electronic anti-theft system malfunctions or the anti-theft controller does not match the engine electronic controller, the anti-theft system can prevent the engine from working properly, and the engine warning light will come on. If the engine warning light is on, follow these steps: First, check if the engine is running normally, whether there is shaking, black smoke, etc. If so, try not to start the engine again. Especially note that if the red light is on, do not start the engine. If the engine can be started, turn it off for 5-10 minutes, then without pressing the brake, press the start button once or turn the key halfway to the 'on' position without pressing the clutch. The car will enter self-check mode after powering on. Wait for 5-10 seconds and observe if the warning light on the dashboard goes off. If the warning light does not go off, visit a service station as soon as possible to find the cause. The service station can use a portable diagnostic tool to read the fault codes, obtain fault information, and perform targeted repairs.

How often should the transmission fluid be changed for the Lavida 6-speed automatic transmission?

For the Lavida 6-speed automatic transmission, the transmission fluid should be changed every 60,000 kilometers or every three years, whichever comes first. Here are some relevant details:1. Transmission fluid needs to be replaced regularly. If not changed for a long time, it can lead to a lack of power during acceleration, cause the transmission to overheat, and accelerate transmission wear.2. Transmission fluid operates under high temperatures, which can speed up the wear of transmission components and even lead to damage. Prolonged failure to change the transmission fluid can result in insufficient power, jerky movements when starting the car, and ultimately reduce the transmission's lifespan.3. Regularly changing the transmission fluid ensures smoother lubrication, smoother gear shifts, and enhances the car's handling performance. It also helps with heat dissipation, extends the lifespan of the transmission, improves the transmission's resistance to oxidation, reduces component corrosion, and provides excellent protection for the transmission gears.

What tires are best for the Jeep Compass?

For the Jeep Compass, it is best to use tires suitable for different situations: 1. If you frequently drive on highways, using the original Continental tires is better, as they are quieter and more fuel-efficient. 2. If you occasionally go off-road, you can use AT tires or all-terrain tires with coarser tread patterns. 3. If you frequently go off-road, off-road tires are more suitable, but the trade-off is increased fuel consumption. 4. If you are in a cold northern region or often drive on snow and ice, snow tires are the best choice. Introduction to car tires: 1. Tires are one of the important components of a car. They directly contact the road surface and work with the car's suspension to cushion the impact during driving, ensuring good ride comfort and smoothness. They also ensure good adhesion between the wheels and the road surface, improving the car's traction, braking, and off-road capability. Tires bear the weight of the car, and their importance is increasingly recognized. 2. During tire use, tire pressure is a very important indicator. It is essential to ensure that the tire pressure matches the manufacturer's recommended pressure. Otherwise, whether the tire pressure is too high or too low, it can significantly damage the tire's lifespan.

How to Use the Engine Start-Stop System?

For automatic transmission vehicles, as long as the car is started, the automatic start-stop system is in normal working condition. When encountering a red light or stopping for other reasons, step on the brake, and the engine will automatically shut off after two seconds. When starting again, simply release the brake and step on the accelerator, or gently turn the steering wheel, and the engine will restart. For manual transmission vehicles, the automatic start-stop system is also enabled by default. When stopping, shift to neutral, pull the handbrake, and release the clutch. After the system recognizes these three actions, it will automatically shut off the engine. When the clutch is pressed again, the engine will automatically restart. The engine start-stop technology automatically shuts off the engine when the vehicle temporarily stops during driving. When it is necessary to continue moving forward, the system automatically restarts the engine.
