Ford Kuga's spark plugs have a service life of no more than 30,000 kilometers, and it is generally recommended to replace the spark plugs every two years or 30,000 kilometers. Under normal maintenance conditions, car spark plugs should be replaced after traveling 40,000 to 60,000 kilometers, but this may vary depending on the brand and engine. It is recommended to follow the owner's manual. The following standards can be referenced for maintenance and replacement: platinum spark plugs should be replaced at 40,000 kilometers, ordinary nickel alloy spark plugs at 20,000 kilometers, and iridium spark plugs at 60,000 to 80,000 kilometers. Steps for replacing spark plugs: Open the hood, lift the plastic cover of the engine, remove the high-voltage ignition wires, and mark the position of each cylinder to avoid confusion. Use a spark plug socket to remove the spark plugs one by one. When removing them, check for any external debris such as leaves or dust and ensure they are cleaned thoroughly. Place the new spark plugs into the spark plug holes, hand-tighten them a few turns, and then use the socket to tighten them further. Install the removed high-voltage ignition wires in the firing order and secure the cover.

What are the reasons for no air coming out of the Peugeot 408 vents?

The reasons for no air coming out of the Peugeot 408 vents may include abnormal connection of the vent switch, blown fuse of the air conditioning, blocked air vents, or malfunctioning of the air conditioning motor fan. Here are the detailed explanations: 1. Clogged air conditioning filter: The most common reason for no air coming out of the air conditioning is a clogged air conditioning filter. Since external air typically passes through the air conditioning filter before entering the car interior, the filter's main function is to isolate dust, particles, moisture, and other attachments in the air. It also provides strong sterilization and deodorization effects, ensuring that passengers do not inhale harmful gases, which could threaten health and driving safety. The air conditioning filter is usually installed above or below the blower. Therefore, air must pass through it to enter the car. If the filter is clogged, poor air circulation will naturally result in no air coming out. 2. Damaged blower: The blower is a crucial part of the air conditioning system, as the circulation of air inside the car relies on its operation. When using the air conditioning at high fan speeds, a buzzing sound can often be heard from under the passenger seat. This is the sound of the blower working—the higher the air demand, the faster the blower must draw in air. If the blower is damaged, it may not draw in enough air or stop drawing air altogether, preventing air from being blown out and causing the air conditioning to not function. 3. Faulty air door, computer, or switch: The air door is located inside the air duct and, being made of plastic, may get stuck or break. When the air door fails to open, the air drawn in by the blower cannot flow out through the vents, resulting in no air coming out of the air conditioning.

What type of engine oil should be used for Peugeot 5008?

The original equipment manufacturer (OEM) oil is the recommended engine oil for Peugeot 5008, with a viscosity grade of 5W-40. In terms of compatibility, the OEM oil is well-suited for the engine. However, depending on specific requirements, other engine oils may offer additional benefits such as noise reduction, fuel efficiency, or enhanced performance. Therefore, alternative brands like Mobil, Shell, or Castrol can also be considered. The viscosity of engine oil changes with temperature variations, so special attention should be paid to its performance under both low and high temperatures. For example, in the case of 5W-30, the first number indicates low-temperature fluidity. 5W means it can withstand temperatures as low as -30°C, and a smaller number represents better low-temperature fluidity, ensuring smoother cold starts for the vehicle. The second number represents the kinematic viscosity of the oil at 100°C. A higher value indicates better viscosity retention at high temperatures, which can also be interpreted as superior lubrication performance under high-temperature conditions. The method for changing the engine oil in a Peugeot 5008 is as follows: Wait for the engine temperature to cool down, allowing the oil to flow back into the oil pan. Use a wrench to loosen the oil drain plug and place an oil pan underneath to catch the old oil until the flow stops completely. Start the engine and let it run for about 30 seconds to allow the oil in the main oil passages to drain out. Use a specialized wrench to remove the oil filter. Apply a small amount of new oil to the oil seal of the new oil filter and tighten it clockwise by hand. Add the new engine oil through the oil filler cap on the engine valve cover, typically filling up to three-quarters of the oil container. Start the engine and let it run for 5 minutes, checking for any leaks around the oil drain plug and oil filter. If leaks are found, perform necessary repairs. After stopping the engine, pull out the oil dipstick to ensure the oil level is within the standard range.

Does changing the color of the roof exceed 30%?

Changing the color of the roof may or may not exceed 30% of the vehicle's body area. According to Article 6, Chapter 2 of the 'Road Traffic Safety Law,' if the color change area of a motor vehicle does not exceed 30%, there is no need to register the change. Conversely, if it exceeds 30%, it must be recorded, and the change must be registered within 10 days after the vehicle's color is altered. Precautions for vehicle color change: Before changing the color of a motor vehicle, it is necessary to consult the local vehicle management office where the vehicle is registered to determine whether the region permits color changes using wraps. If the region does not support this method, the wrap must be completely removed to restore the vehicle's original color, as no registration can be processed otherwise. Documents required for applying to change the body color of a motor vehicle: 'Motor Vehicle Modification Registration Application Form.' Proof of identity of the vehicle owner and agent. Motor vehicle registration certificate. Motor vehicle driving license. Additionally, according to the 'Motor Vehicle Registration Regulations,' owners are no longer required to apply to the vehicle management office in advance. They can first change the vehicle's color, install body kits, replace the engine, etc., and then apply for modification registration with the vehicle management office. According to Article 10, registered motor vehicles must apply for modification registration under the following circumstances: Change of body color. Replacement of the engine. Replacement of the body or frame. Replacement of the entire vehicle due to quality issues. Change of use, such as converting a commercial vehicle to a non-commercial vehicle or vice versa. Change of the vehicle owner's residence into or out of the jurisdiction of the vehicle management office. Furthermore, according to Article 15 of the 'Road Traffic Safety Law of the People's Republic of China,' police cars, fire trucks, ambulances, and engineering rescue vehicles must display designated patterns and install alarms and warning lights as required. Other motor vehicles are prohibited from using similar patterns, alarms, or warning lights. According to Article 56 of the 'Motor Vehicle Registration Regulations,' if the body color is changed without following the proper modification registration procedures, the traffic management department of the public security authority may issue a warning or impose a fine. The vehicle may also be impounded and required to revert to its original color. Important notes: Vehicle inspection can only be conducted three working days after the modification: Some people rush to apply for a color change before an inspection, hoping to complete the process quickly. However, the vehicle management office's system requires three working days to complete the data and information filing for the color change application. Therefore, the vehicle can only undergo a normal annual inspection at least three working days after the modification is recorded. If only a small part of the roof is repainted and the change does not exceed one-third of the vehicle's body area, there is no need to apply for a color change registration. If it exceeds one-third, the owner must apply for a color change registration at the vehicle management office; otherwise, the vehicle will not pass the inspection.
