Generally speaking, the second maintenance for a new car is recommended at around 10,000 kilometers or one year of driving, which means it is approximately 5,000 kilometers or six months after the first maintenance. Of course, for some car models where the first maintenance is later, such as at 8,000 kilometers or 10,000 kilometers, the second maintenance will also be delayed accordingly. 1. Maintenance items: This involves the inspection and maintenance of dozens of items across multiple systems, including the engine, transmission, air conditioning system, steering system, braking system, suspension, body, and tires. The key items are still changing the engine oil and oil filter. 2. Possible damages from exceeding maintenance limits: Dirty oil can affect lubrication and increase wear; minor faults that are not detected and fixed in time can lead to potential accidents; increased fuel consumption and emissions.

What's the reason for the sudden failure of the windshield wiper?

If the wiper cannot move, it indicates a malfunction. You can try opening the hood to check if the transmission linkage is dislocated or inspect whether the fuse is intact. If the fuse is intact but there is no voltage at the motor, check the wiring and the turn signal combination switch for any issues. Generally, a burnt motor will emit a burnt smell. If there is normal voltage at the wiper motor when the power is turned on, the motor may be damaged. Wiper maintenance methods: 1. When using the wiper to remove dust from the windshield on sunny days, always spray windshield washer fluid and avoid dry wiping. 2. To ensure good wiping performance, use the designated windshield washer fluid and never use plain water as a substitute. 3. If there are other stubborn or hard contaminants on the glass, remove them manually.

Is Front Suspension Replacement a Major Accident?

Front suspension replacement is not a major accident. Here are the specific details: 1. Definition: The suspension system refers to all the force-transmitting connection devices between the car's frame and the axle or wheels. Its function is to transmit forces and torques acting between the wheels and the frame, as well as to cushion the impacts from uneven road surfaces transmitted to the frame or body, and to dampen the resulting vibrations, ensuring smooth driving. 2. Non-independent suspension system: The structural feature of a non-independent suspension system is that both wheels are connected by a solid axle, and the wheels along with the axle are suspended under the frame or body via an elastic suspension system. The non-independent suspension system has the advantages of simple structure, low cost, high strength, easy maintenance, and minimal changes in front-wheel alignment during driving. However, due to its poor comfort and handling stability, it is rarely used in modern passenger cars and is mostly found in trucks and buses.

Why does the heater blow hot and cold intermittently?

There are two main reasons why a vehicle's heater may alternate between hot and cold air: 1. Hot water occasionally fails to enter the heater core: (1) Malfunction of the heater control valve. (2) Air in the coolant system. (3) Insufficient antifreeze. (4) In some vehicles, the heater control valve is controlled by the air conditioning computer. During operation, internal sticking or influence from the air conditioning computer may cause the heater control valve to close or fail to open. 2. Hot air is not delivered through the vents: (1) Sticking of the air conditioning heater blend door or malfunction of the control motor. (2) If the blend door motor responsible for regulating hot and cold air malfunctions, it can also cause temperature fluctuations in the heater output.

How to Turn Off the Auto Start-Stop Function on the S90 Engine?

The auto start-stop function on the S90 engine can be turned off by pressing the brake pedal. Typically, the engine will automatically shut off after about two seconds. When you release the brake pedal and press the accelerator or gently turn the steering wheel, the engine will restart. Here are some related details: 1. The Start-Stop system, as it is known in English, pauses the engine when the vehicle comes to a stop (not in park mode), instead of maintaining traditional idle speed. 2. While the engine is paused, the lubrication system continues to operate, ensuring the engine remains lubricated. When the brake pedal is released, the engine restarts. Since the lubrication system keeps circulating, frequent stops and starts do not cause wear and tear on the engine internals.
