I've been driving a 2016 Nissan Sylphy CVT version for several years. When performing a gravity oil change, it requires approximately 4 liters of new oil. Remember that the manual recommends using Nissan's genuine NS-3 type CVT fluid, and the model must match to avoid damaging the transmission. Gravity oil change only replaces part of the old oil, about 60-70% at a time, so it's not a complete cleaning, but the operation is simple and safe: first loosen the drain plug on the chassis to let the old oil flow out completely, then add new oil until the level reaches the middle mark on the dipstick. If doing it yourself, choose a flat surface and operate with the engine off to prevent slipping. After changing the oil, drive for a while and check the level again to be safe. Performing this every 20,000 to 40,000 kilometers yields better results, helping to prevent transmission shudder and extend its lifespan.

For the 2016 Sylphy CVT gravity oil change, approximately 4 liters of new oil is typically required. Check the vehicle manual to confirm the exact capacity and avoid misunderstandings. The gravity method is more cost-effective and gentler than machine flushing. First, loosen the bottom drain plug to release the old oil for about 15 minutes, then add new oil and start the engine to circulate it for a few minutes to balance the oil temperature. I've used tools to do it myself—the process isn't difficult but requires high precision. Slightly too much or too little oil can cause transmission jerking or unusual noises, so always adjust to the dipstick's specified mark. Nissan oil costs about 50 yuan per liter, making the total expense low. Regular maintenance ensures smoother transmission performance.

How to Check the National Emission Standard?

Here are five methods to check the national emission standard: 1. Check your vehicle's environmental protection label, which has clear markings on the back. 2. Visit the Motor Vehicle Environmental Protection Website for inquiries. Enter the website, click on the 'Motor Vehicle Environmental Protection Information Verification System' option, select the vehicle type and the passed emission standard, input your vehicle's model and engine type, and click 'Query' to view the emission standard of the vehicle in question. 3. Bring the motor vehicle registration certificate (original or copy) to the vehicle management office for inquiry. 4. If you purchased a new vehicle, you can check the vehicle's factory certificate. Note that the factory certificate is usually kept at the vehicle management office, so it's advisable to make a copy for backup when buying a new car. 5. You can roughly estimate based on the vehicle's registration year. Most vehicles registered after 2008 are National IV standard, those registered in 2007 could be National III or IV, vehicles registered before 2007 are mostly below National IV (i.e., National III or II), and vehicles registered before 2005 are mostly National II standard.

Where is the air conditioning control module of Baojun 730 located?

Baojun 730 air conditioning control module is located at the lower center position of the center console. Extended information: The following are precautions for using car air conditioning: 1. Be cautious about air conditioning modifications: It is not recommended to modify the car's air conditioning system, as the original air conditioning is matched with the car's engine. Random modifications may affect the vehicle's performance. 2. Avoid setting the temperature too low: Choosing an appropriate air conditioning temperature is the first step in air conditioning maintenance. Setting the temperature too low can affect physical health. 3. Control the air outlet direction: The principle for car air conditioning outlets is to point them upward when cooling and downward when heating. 4. Do not use it for too long: Prolonged use of the air conditioning can increase the condenser pressure excessively, causing wear and tear to the refrigeration system. 5. Use high airflow appropriately: The air conditioning system can accumulate a lot of dust during use. Regularly using high airflow can blow out the surface dust in the air ducts. The simplest method is the most effective.

The main components of engine oil are base oil and additives. Base oil is the primary component of lubricating oil, determining its fundamental properties; additives can compensate for and improve the deficiencies in base oil performance, endowing it with certain new characteristics, making them an important part of lubricating oil. Below is an introduction to engine oil: 1. Engine oil is the lubricating oil used by engines, composed of base oil and additives. As a type of machinery, engines have common requirements for lubricating oil similar to general machinery, such as requiring appropriate viscosity, certain anti-oxidation, anti-wear, anti-corrosion, and viscosity-temperature properties. 2. The density of engine oil is approximately 0.91×10³ (kg/m³), and it can lubricate and reduce friction, assist in cooling, seal and prevent leaks, prevent rust and corrosion, and provide shock absorption and buffering for the engine.

Is it necessary to go to a 4S dealership for car maintenance?

New cars must be serviced at a 4S dealership during the warranty period; after the warranty period expires, it is not mandatory to go to a 4S dealership, but it is essential to choose a reliable and trustworthy repair shop. Here are the detailed explanations: 1. New cars must be serviced at a 4S dealership because manufacturers provide a warranty period for new vehicles. If any quality issues arise during this period, they will be repaired for free. 2. If the vehicle is not serviced at a 4S dealership as required by the manufacturer, the warranty will become void. Additionally, the biggest advantages of servicing at a 4S dealership are professionalism, reliability, and comprehensive vehicle information records. The equipment is also more complete and professional, the quality of parts is guaranteed, and the maintenance technicians are specially trained, so you can rest assured about their technical skills. 3. After the warranty period expires, if you find 4S dealerships too expensive, you can choose to go to a repair shop or DIY. Repair shops generally do not have significant issues with workmanship, and if it is a reputable auto repair shop, the quality and reputation are also guaranteed. However, due to lower production costs in some aspects, the prices tend to be cheaper.
