Diesel filters should be replaced every 5,000 to 10,000 kilometers. If the diesel filter becomes clogged, it can lead to insufficient fuel supply and low oil pressure, causing symptoms such as reduced engine power, poor driving performance, and even black smoke from the exhaust. Therefore, it is essential to adhere to the replacement requirements of the diesel filter and perform regular replacements to ensure the diesel filter can always effectively filter the diesel. The function of the diesel filter is to remove particulate impurities from the diesel, effectively extending the service life of the fuel injection pump, diesel nozzles, and other filtration components. There are two types of diesel filter structures: replaceable and spin-on.

What Causes Steering Wheel Failure?

Steering wheel failure is caused by steering gear malfunction or anti-theft system activation. Below are the details about steering wheel failure: 1. Steering gear malfunction: The steering gear, officially known as the steering mechanism, directly controls the rotation of the wheels. Abnormal failure of the steering mechanism is likely due to an improperly designed drainage outlet at the bottom of the vehicle from the windshield washer tube, combined with poor sealing of the power steering system. This can cause water to enter the sensor wiring harness or internal components, leading to power steering failure and "steering wheel lock." If this is the cause, the vehicle may have a design defect. Of course, the possibility of steering mechanism wiring harness issues causing such incidents cannot be ruled out. 2. Anti-theft system activation: Generally, when the car is turned off, rotating the steering wheel in one direction by a certain angle will produce a "click" sound, after which the steering wheel can no longer be turned—it is now locked. The principle is that there is a pin inside the steering wheel; when the key is removed, even a slight rotation of the steering wheel causes the pin to pop into a hole, locking the steering wheel. In this state, the steering wheel cannot be turned, and the ignition switch cannot be operated, ensuring that malicious individuals cannot steal the car.

Why does the plug of a new energy vehicle get hot during charging?

New energy vehicle plug heating during charging is mainly caused by issues such as loose plugs. Below is a detailed explanation: Loose plug and oxidized contact surface: A loose plug and oxidized contact surface can lead to poor contact during charging. If there is slack contact at the connection points during charging, the voltage between the points can be sufficient to break down the air gap, forming an arc and sparking, which may ignite nearby flammable materials and cause a fire. If the charging port connection is not secure, maintenance is poor, or an oxide film that conducts poorly forms at the joint during long-term operation, the oxidized charging plug can easily cause excessive contact resistance, leading to overheating of the plug. Issues with the charging port electronic lock: Regarding the charging port, the model and size are standardized, and the vehicle charging port has corresponding regulations for safety requirements such as current. The charging port should be equipped with an electronic locking device to prevent accidental disconnection during charging. When the electronic lock is engaged, the charging port may still continue to charge, causing the charging port to overheat. Quality issues with the charging port: Due to differences in cell materials, the charging port may heat up when the current is too high. However, different materials have varying heat dissipation properties. If the material is of poor quality, it may lead to inadequate heat dissipation, resulting in overheating.

Why does the Geely Binyue require 6 liters of engine oil?

Geely Binyue requires 6 liters of engine oil because its oil tank capacity can accommodate 6L. When adding engine oil, it is essential to ensure the oil level remains between the min and max marks on the dipstick. The oil level must not fall below the min mark or exceed the max mark. If it's below min, it may cause insufficient lubrication, accelerating engine wear. If it exceeds max, it will increase engine operating resistance, leading to reduced power and higher fuel consumption. Below are the functions of engine oil: 1. Friction reduction: A sufficiently thick oil film separates the surfaces of relatively sliding components, thereby reducing wear. 2. Sealing: Engine oil forms a seal between piston rings and pistons, minimizing gas leakage and preventing external contaminants from entering. 3. Rust prevention: Lubricating oil adheres to component surfaces, protecting them from contact with water, air, acidic substances, and harmful gases. 4. Cushioning: When cylinder pressure rises sharply, suddenly intensifying the load on pistons, piston rings, connecting rods, and crankshaft bearings, the lubricated bearing transmission cushions the impact load. 5. Cleaning: High-quality engine oil circulates carbon deposits, sludge, and worn metal particles back to the oil tank, flushing away contaminants generated on component surfaces through oil flow.

Can a Motorcycle Start Without Oil?

A motorcycle can start without oil. If it has just run out of oil and the engine has not yet suffered severe wear or seizure, it may temporarily start. However, you should not attempt to start it again under these circumstances, as doing so could exacerbate engine issues, leading to severe seizure or other significant damage. If the engine has already seized or suffered severe wear, causing it to lock up or lose compression, it will no longer start. If you discover there is no oil, you should immediately shut off the engine and refrain from attempting to start it again until oil has been added. Below are some relevant details: Engine Shutdown: Before the lack of oil causes damage to other components, a motorcycle may still start. However, without the lubrication provided by oil, the engine parts will quickly wear out, leading to shutdown or even complete engine seizure, rendering it inoperable. Therefore, do not attempt to start the engine if there is no oil. Engine Oil: Engine oil serves multiple purposes, including lubrication to reduce friction, aiding in cooling, sealing to prevent leaks, preventing rust and corrosion, and cushioning vibrations. Motorcycles are two- or three-wheeled vehicles powered by gasoline engines and steered via handlebars. They are lightweight, agile, and fast, making them widely used for patrols and transporting passengers or cargo.

Can people sit in the back of an RV while driving?

People can sit in the back of an RV while driving, but they must sit in dedicated seat chairs and fasten their seat belts in the RV section. Walking around, cooking, or showering inside the vehicle is not allowed while in motion, unless the RV is specially designed with safety protection features. Below is relevant information about traveling in an RV: RV precautions: Do not move around freely or lie on the rear bed while the RV is in motion. Climbing onto the overhead forehead bed is also prohibited, as a sudden brake could easily lead to a safety accident. Additionally, before driving the RV, ensure all cabinets are securely closed and avoid leaving items piled on tables, as they may fall and cause injury. Do not use the bed while driving: Do not use the bed while the vehicle is in motion. The bed does not provide safety protection. Although the bed is comfortable, passengers must sit in their seats and fasten their seat belts while traveling. If you wish to lie down and sleep, park the vehicle first—safety comes first. Seat belts are an important safety feature of the vehicle, so ensure all seat belts are fastened while driving. Adjust the seat belt tightly across the lower abdomen to provide maximum safety protection. One seat belt should only be used by one person and must never be shared by two or more people.
