A car should undergo a major maintenance every 15,000 to 20,000 kilometers. In addition to the first maintenance, it is also necessary to check the engine condition, tire wear degree, and the status of other fluids and wear parts. Car maintenance refers to the preventive work of regularly inspecting, cleaning, supplying, lubricating, adjusting, or replacing certain parts of the car, also known as car servicing. The replacement of engine oil and oil filters is mainly for the maintenance of the lubrication system. The main function of the lubrication system is to effectively lubricate various parts of the car engine to prevent excessive wear. Inspection items such as brake fluid, transmission oil, battery, throttle, fuel injector, brake pads, and other components should be maintained and serviced according to their usage conditions.

How to Unclog the Sunroof Drain Pipe on a Classic Focus?

This situation depends on whether it's the front drain pipe or the rear drain pipe that's clogged. If it's the front drain pipe that's clogged, open the sunroof and use high-pressure air to blow at the two front corners of the sunroof. This will clear the sunroof drain pipe. If it's the rear two drain pipes that are clogged, then you'll need to remove the interior headliner before you can use high-pressure air to blow them clear.

How to Maintain a Mazda?

The amount of antifreeze must be appropriate. The service station recommends replacing the antifreeze every two years, but mixed antifreeze must be replaced annually. Engine oil requires higher lubrication standards in winter. If summer-grade oil is being used, it must be replaced, and any oil that has been in use for an extended period should also be changed. If you normally use 90-octane gasoline, you can switch to 93-octane. Since winter driving environments have lower temperatures, higher-octane gasoline has a higher ignition point.

How to Solve the Issue of Nissan Sylphy Classic Consuming 10L/100km?

Fuel consumption increase is closely related to tires. Generally, the larger the contact area between the tires and the ground, the stronger the grip. The main function of the oxygen sensor is to monitor the oxygen concentration in the exhaust. The vehicle's computer will adjust the fuel injection amount in real-time based on the data it provides. Carbon deposits inside the engine can cause unstable idling and reduced machine efficiency, leading to increased fuel consumption. Poor driving habits are also a reason for increased fuel consumption, such as sudden acceleration, sudden braking, and abrupt stops.

Why does the car's high beam not seem bright enough?

Here are the reasons why the car's high beam may not be bright enough and the corresponding solutions: 1. Circuit malfunction: This issue may be caused by poor or loose wiring connections, or connectors not being properly seated; it requires inspection and repair at a 4S shop. 2. Bulb wattage issue: Using bulbs with inconsistent wattage during replacement may lead to this problem; simply replace them with bulbs of slightly higher appropriate wattage. 3. Reflector deformation or looseness: Deformation, looseness, detachment of the reflector inside the headlight, or quality issues causing poor light concentration or dispersion may also result in insufficient brightness or lack of focus; this requires inspection and repair at a 4S shop.
