There are two tire specifications for the Geely Boyue, which are 225/65r17 and 225/60r18. The numbers in the tire model indicate the load index of a single tire. When the vehicle's load exceeds this index, the risk of a tire blowout increases. The last letter represents the speed rating of the tire. The functions of the tires are: 1. To transmit driving force, braking force, and steering force, enabling the operation of the vehicle; 2. To support the vehicle's load; 3. To reduce and absorb vibrations and impact forces during driving. The dimensions of the Geely Boyue are: length 4519mm, width 1831mm, height 1694mm, with a wheelbase of 2670mm.

Last time I drove the Geely Boyue on the highway, I realized how important tires are. This SUV commonly comes with two or three tire models, such as the 205/60 R16 size, which is the basic configuration. I used it for a while—the grip was decent, but the comfort was average. There’s also the larger 225/55 R18 size, found on higher trims, which provides more stability and a smoother ride over speed bumps. Different models affect fuel consumption: the 205 tires save some fuel but offer slightly weaker handling, while the 225 tires have stronger grip but slightly higher fuel consumption. When replacing tires, stick to the factory specifications based on your car’s condition—don’t modify them randomly, as it could affect braking distance. I recommend checking tire pressure regularly, measuring it every 5,000 kilometers—safety first. In short, choosing the right model ensures a safer and more worry-free drive.

As a car enthusiast, I analyze the Geely Boyue tires. Common models include two mainstream sizes: 205/60 R16 and 225/55 R18. The former is the standard for low-configuration wheels, with a width of 205mm, an aspect ratio of 60%, and 16-inch rims, suitable for urban road conditions. The latter is for high-configuration versions, with a width of 225mm, an aspect ratio of 55%, and 18-inch rims, enhancing cornering stability. The size difference affects steering feedback, noise levels, and fuel efficiency. The 225 may consume 0.5L more fuel but offers better safety. Occasionally, you might see 215/60 R17 on specific year models. Matching the tire to the rim is crucial when selecting tires, as mismatched models can lead to uneven wear. I recommend consulting the manual to avoid mixing. For maintenance, pay attention to balance checks and perform tire rotation every six months.

Common tire models for the Geely Boyue include 205/60 R16 and 225/55 R18, determined by the vehicle's trim level. This directly impacts driving safety—for instance, narrower tires are more prone to skidding in rain or snow, while wider tires reduce the risk of side slipping but require coordination with the ABS system. Driving with incorrect tire models may lead to blowouts or handling failures. I've experienced similar situations, learning the hard way to regularly check if the tire models match. When replacing tires, prioritize original specifications over cheaper off-brand options to minimize risks. Regular maintenance is essential, including checking tread depth every 10,000 kilometers. Ensuring the correct tire model makes for a more secure journey.

What lights should you turn on when driving in a heavy rainstorm?

When driving in heavy rain, turn on the headlights or front fog lights. Precautions for driving in rainy weather are as follows: 1. Turn on the wipers promptly; 2. If there is frost on the windshield, turn on the air conditioning and direct the cold air toward the windshield; 3. The driver should hold the steering wheel with both hands to maintain straight and low-speed driving, and brake gently to prevent the tires from locking up and causing the vehicle to skid; 4. Reduce the vehicle's speed, pay attention to the distance between the front and rear vehicles, and be mentally prepared to take emergency measures in advance. Car headlights, also known as car front lights or LED daytime running lights, should be maintained by: 1. Regularly checking the sealing of the headlights—if the sealing ring between the lens and reflector is damaged, replace it promptly; 2. Regularly cleaning the reflector—if it turns black and the brightness decreases, replace it; 3. Regularly removing dust and stains from the bulbs.

What Causes Rough Gear Shifting in Automatic Transmissions?

Rough gear shifting in automatic transmissions may be caused by: transmission clutch pressure leakage; obstructed or sluggish transmission oil passages; insufficient or excessive transmission fluid levels; or damaged solenoid valves. The engine's power is transmitted through the transmission, which is also a key factor affecting fuel consumption. Generally, automatic transmissions consume over 10% more fuel than manual transmissions. Whether manual or automatic, transmissions with more gears tend to be more fuel-efficient. Below is relevant information: 1. Damaged solenoid valves: If sludge circulates within the transmission fluid and blocks the oil passages in the valve body, it can cause rough shifting. Over time, this can lead to a series of transmission issues such as overheating, impact, and slipping. 2. Incorrect transmission fluid levels: Verify whether the transmission fluid is at the standard level. Both insufficient and excessive transmission fluid can cause this issue. For vehicles equipped with a transmission dipstick, check whether the fluid level is within the standard range when the engine is running.

Symptoms of a Faulty Thermostat in Jetta?

Jetta thermostat failure symptoms are as follows: 1. Thermostat malfunction with insufficient opening affects the engine's large and small circulation cycles, preventing effective heat dissipation and causing engine coolant temperature to rise; 2. Excessive thermostat opening leads to low engine coolant temperature, slow temperature rise, increased fuel consumption, and abnormal engine noises; 3. Thermostat sticking tends to cause carbon buildup, resulting in unstable engine idle speed and engine vibration. Below is how the thermostat works: 1. The thermostat is a valve controlling coolant flow path. It's an automatic temperature-regulating device typically containing temperature-sensing components that open/close air, gas or liquid flow through thermal expansion/contraction. 2. At normal temperature, the wax remains solid. When water temperature is below 76°C, the main valve closes completely while the bypass valve opens fully, allowing water from the cylinder head to directly enter the water pump via the bypass pipe (called small circulation). As water only flows between pump and water jacket without passing through the radiator and with small flow rate, the cooling intensity is weak.

What Causes the Noise When Shifting Gears in an Automatic Transmission?

The reasons for noise when shifting gears in an automatic transmission are as follows: 1. Large valve clearance when the engine is cold: Poor lubrication can cause noise during gear shifting between cold and warm engine states, lasting about 3 minutes, but this is a normal phenomenon. 2. Issues caused by parking on a slope: If you engage the P (Park) gear before applying the handbrake when parking on a slope, the vehicle's weight will be entirely on the P gear due to inertia, leading to noise when shifting gears. However, if you apply the handbrake first, the handbrake will bear the weight, and no noise will occur. 3. Transmission problems: Wear and tear in the transmission, such as a loose driveshaft, worn differential, worn output shaft inside the transmission, worn transmission gears, or faulty shifting mechanism, require immediate attention. It is essential to visit a 4S shop or a professional auto repair shop for technician repairs.

What are the vehicle warning lights?

There are ten main warning lights: 1. Oil pressure warning light: When illuminated, it indicates the engine oil level or pressure is below standard. Continued driving may cause severe engine wear due to lack of lubrication. 2. Coolant temperature warning light: Displays the temperature of the engine coolant. 3. Engine malfunction light: Shows the engine's operational status, typically in yellow. It lights up during ignition self-check and should turn off after starting. Persistent illumination indicates potential engine system issues. 4. Brake system warning light: If illuminated, first ensure the parking brake is fully released. If it remains lit, check brake fluid level or pad thickness. 5. Power steering warning light: Indicates malfunction in the power steering system. 6. Door/hood open warning light: Warns if doors or hood aren't properly closed. 7. Tire pressure monitoring light: Signals low tire pressure or possible tire damage. 8. Battery warning light: Usually yellow, it should turn off after self-check. 9. ABS warning light: Primarily yellow, failure to light during self-check or persistent illumination indicates potential ABS system faults. 10. Electronic stability control light: Normally indicates system deactivation when lit, and activation when off.

Should the Foot Always Be on the Brake in an Automatic Transmission?

In an automatic transmission, the foot should not always be on the brake. It is best for the driver to keep the foot in the middle behind the brake and accelerator pedals. Below are specific details about the driver's foot placement: 1. Right Foot: The right foot should always be placed in the middle behind the brake and accelerator pedals. This makes it easier to step on the brake in case of an emergency and also facilitates acceleration. Tilting to the right is the accelerator pedal, while stepping straight down is the brake pedal. 2. Precautions: Do not use the left foot for braking and the right foot for acceleration, as this may lead to simultaneous pressing, wasting fuel and making operation difficult. 3. Correct Movement: The standard way to press the accelerator and brake is to pivot the heel of the right foot and rotate left or right to press, keeping the heel on the ground.
