New cars can go on high speed after the break-in period. Driving recommendations for new cars: The maximum speed of a new car should not exceed 100 km/h, and the maximum RPM should not exceed 3000; it is recommended to drive on the highway after running 2500 kilometers; the first recommended maintenance includes changing the engine oil and oil filter. High-speed running: Generally refers to taking a new car on the highway after the break-in period. The purpose of this is to allow the new pistons and camshafts in the engine to experience their first rapid operation, ensuring better contact between them; to allow the transmission gears in the gearbox to experience high-speed rotation, making the engagement between the new gears smoother.

Where are the fog lights located on a car?

Fog lights are positioned below the headlights, with one on the top and one on the bottom. The rear fog light is located at the rear of the vehicle. The fog light switch is typically found on the car's lighting control system assembly or the lighting control stalk. In adverse weather conditions such as fog, snow, and heavy rain, or when driving in smoky or dusty environments, front fog lights are essential to illuminate the road ahead and ensure driving safety. Front fog lights are yellow, while rear fog lights are red. Their purpose is to light up the road during rainy or foggy conditions and provide a warning to vehicles in front and behind. In terms of light sources, car fog lights include halogen fog lights and LED fog lights. Fog lights are usually installed below the car's bumper, close to the ground. If fog lights are installed too high, the light cannot penetrate through rain or fog to illuminate the road.

Where is the rear fog light located on a car?

Car rear fog lights are located on the left side or both sides of the rear taillights. When driving in adverse weather conditions such as fog, snow, heavy rain, or in smoke-filled environments, front fog lights must be used to illuminate the road ahead and ensure driving safety. The main functions of fog lights are: 1. Front fog lights are used to improve lighting when the road conditions ahead are unclear and to alert oncoming drivers; 2. Rear fog lights allow vehicles behind to spot the car in low visibility conditions. The usage methods of fog lights are: 1. When visibility is between 100 to 200 meters, fog lights, low beams, width indicator lights, and taillights must be turned on, maintaining a distance of over 100 meters from the vehicle ahead; 2. When visibility is between 50 to 100 meters, fog lights, low beams, width indicator lights, and taillights should be turned on, keeping a distance of over 50 meters from the vehicle ahead.

What are the symptoms of a faulty turbocharger?

The symptoms of a faulty turbocharger are: 1. Blue smoke from the exhaust at idle, varying in intensity; 2. Blue smoke from the exhaust both at idle and while driving, worsening when accelerating, with significant oil consumption; 3. Heavy blue smoke from the vehicle, abnormal noise from the turbo end of the turbocharger, and oil leakage from the turbo end; 4. A fluttering abnormal noise when accelerating or decelerating. The turbocharger mainly consists of a turbine and a compressor, connected by a drive shaft. The turbine's intake is connected to the engine's exhaust manifold, and the exhaust port is connected to the exhaust pipe; the compressor's intake is connected to the intake pipe, and the exhaust port is connected to the intake manifold.

What are the symptoms of a faulty car temperature sensor?

Symptoms of a faulty car temperature sensor: 1. When the car's temperature sensor is damaged, the engine will overheat, and a yellow coolant temperature warning light will appear on the dashboard to alert the driver to check it; 2. After the car's temperature sensor is damaged, the car may also experience difficulty starting when cold, because the car will determine that the engine oil and coolant temperatures are too low, preventing normal operation, making it hard to start the engine. The car temperature sensor controls the temperature of the engine oil and coolant, helping the engine run more efficiently. When the car temperature sensor is damaged, the normal operation of the engine will be affected, potentially leading to engine overheating. In such cases, it is necessary to promptly repair or replace the car's temperature sensor.

Why do cars need to add urea now?

Nowadays, cars add urea mainly to meet emission standards. Only diesel vehicles require urea addition. National regulations mandate that electronically controlled diesel engine vehicles must add urea because diesel vehicles emit higher levels of exhaust gases. Adding urea can reduce carbon oxides in the exhaust and lower pollutant emissions, making diesel vehicles more environmentally friendly. Currently, most diesel engines use Selective Catalytic Reduction (SCR) technology, meaning that after the engine exhaust is discharged from the turbocharger, it needs to pass through a catalytic converter before entering the vehicle's exhaust pipe. The urea nozzle on the exhaust pipe will spray urea under the control of the onboard computer.
