Trumpchi GS5 requires approximately 3 liters of transmission oil, which should be replaced every 80,000 kilometers or 4 years. Transmission oil is a lubricant that keeps the gear system clean, providing lubrication to extend the lifespan of the transmission components. It offers effective lubrication even under low-temperature conditions. The Trumpchi GS5 is a stylish urban SUV developed by GAC Motor on a high-performance European chassis. Its body dimensions are 4732mm in length, 1854mm in width, and 1680mm in height, with a wheelbase of 2710mm. In terms of exterior design, the Trumpchi GS5 adopts the European "Light and Shadow Sculpture" design concept, featuring powerful lines on the front hood and smooth shoulder lines on the sides, creating a dynamic yet poised stance.

While organizing the transmission fluid capacity information for the Trumpchi GS5, I recalled my own experience driving this car: an automatic transmission fluid change typically requires preparing 4.5 to 6 liters of oil, with the manual recommending 5.5 liters because after draining the old oil, new fluid needs to be added to the standard level. I always prepare 6 liters before going to the repair shop for an oil change, just in case, and change it approximately every 40,000 kilometers to ensure the transmission stays lubricated. Getting the fluid level right is crucial—too much can cause foaming and degradation, while too little can lead to gear wear, resulting in jerking or unusual noises while driving. Regularly checking the fluid condition and addressing any discoloration (like turning black) promptly can extend component lifespan. It's safest for car owners to develop a habit of regular maintenance.

How many points will be deducted for changing lanes by crossing the solid line in a tunnel?

Changing lanes by crossing the solid line in a tunnel will result in a deduction of 3 points. White solid line: The white solid line is used to separate lanes in the same direction, usually marked before traffic lights at intersections. Many drivers are caught violating traffic rules by crossing this type of line. Single yellow solid line: The single yellow solid line prohibits vehicles from crossing or driving over the line in both directions. It is marked on roads with only one lane in one direction or one motor vehicle lane and one non-motor vehicle lane, as well as in sections where overtaking is prohibited due to other hazards. Yellow no-parking solid line: When the single yellow solid line is marked on one side of the road, it becomes a "no-parking line," indicating that parking is prohibited for any vehicle in that section. Guide line: Guide lines usually appear at intersections, ramps, U-turn lanes, and other locations with complex driving conditions. Their purpose is to guide vehicles to drive according to the prescribed route.

Should I Signal When Overtaking in the Far Left Lane?

In the far left lane, overtaking is not allowed. Therefore, there is no need to use the turn signal. Prohibited overtaking situations: According to Article 43 of the "Road Traffic Safety Law": When motor vehicles are driving in the same lane, the following vehicle should maintain a safe distance from the vehicle in front to allow for emergency braking measures. Overtaking is prohibited under any of the following circumstances: the vehicle in front is making a left turn, U-turn, or overtaking; there is a possibility of meeting an oncoming vehicle; the vehicle in front is a police car, fire truck, ambulance, or engineering rescue vehicle performing emergency duties; passing through railway crossings, intersections, narrow bridges, curves, steep slopes, tunnels, pedestrian crossings, or urban areas with heavy traffic where overtaking conditions are not met. Relevant regulations: Motor vehicles passing through intersections should proceed according to traffic signals, signs, markings, or the direction of traffic police; when passing through intersections without traffic signals, signs, markings, or traffic police direction, they should slow down and yield to pedestrians and vehicles with the right of way.

What Causes the Oil Can Light to Illuminate in a Car?

Car fault light illumination reasons are as follows: Cooling and temperature reduction: Engine oil can bring heat back to the oil tank and then dissipate it into the air, helping the radiator cool the engine. Cleaning and purification: High-quality engine oil can carry carbon deposits, sludge, and worn metal particles from engine components back to the oil tank through circulation. The flow of the lubricating oil washes away dirt generated on the working surfaces of the components. Sealing and leakage prevention: Engine oil can form a sealing ring between the piston rings and the piston, reducing gas leakage and preventing external contaminants from entering. Rust and corrosion prevention: Lubricating oil can adhere to the surfaces of components, preventing contact with water, air, acidic substances, and harmful gases. Shock absorption and cushioning: When the pressure at the engine cylinder port rises sharply, suddenly increasing the load on the piston, piston skirt, connecting rod, and crankshaft bearings, this load is transmitted and lubricated through the bearings, cushioning the impact load. Lubrication and wear reduction: There is rapid relative sliding between the piston and cylinder, as well as between the main shaft and bearing shells. To prevent excessive wear of components, an oil film needs to be established between the two sliding surfaces. A sufficiently thick oil film separates the surfaces of the relatively sliding components, thereby reducing wear.

Will there be a fine for overdue driver's license renewal?

Generally, there is no penalty for overdue renewal of a driver's license. However, if you continue to drive a motor vehicle without an annual review of an overdue driver's license, you will be subject to corresponding fines. Fines imposed: The "Regulations on the Application and Use of Motor Vehicle Driver's Licenses" stipulates: Article 95, if a motor vehicle driver commits any of the following acts, the traffic management department of the public security organ shall impose a fine. Circumstances for imposing fines: During the period when the motor vehicle driver's license is legally seized, detained, or temporarily suspended, the driver uses concealment or deception to reapply for a motor vehicle driver's license. Circumstances for revoking the motor vehicle driver's license: If the physical condition of the motor vehicle driver changes and is no longer suitable for driving a motor vehicle, but the driver continues to drive; or if the driver fails to participate in the annual review on time and continues to drive; or if the driver falls under any of the circumstances specified in the first or second item of the first paragraph, the traffic management department of the public security organ shall revoke the motor vehicle driver's license.

What Causes a Car to Emit White Smoke?

There are several reasons why a car may emit white smoke, including issues with the air filter. When the car's air filter becomes clogged and air intake is insufficient, white smoke may appear from the exhaust pipe. Below are the specific causes and solutions: Specific causes: Malfunction of the carburetor; problems with the oxygen sensor in the exhaust pipe, causing the sensor to fail to provide correct information; too much water in the gasoline. Replacing piston rings: If the engine runs unevenly, it could be due to wear in the engine cylinder's gasket, creating a gap that allows a large amount of water from the cooling system to enter the combustion chamber. If the smoke increases with acceleration and is accompanied by a pungent odor, this indicates an engine malfunction, and the piston rings need to be replaced.
