The Fit requires approximately 6L of coolant to be added, just fill it to the middle between the upper and lower marks on the auxiliary reservoir. Coolant prevents the freezing of the liquid in cold winter conditions, which could otherwise crack the radiator and damage the engine block. Coolant is a special additive-containing liquid primarily used in liquid-cooled engine cooling systems, offering excellent performance in winter antifreeze, summer anti-boil, year-round anti-scale, and anti-corrosion. The Fit is one of Honda's global strategic models following the Accord and Civic, designed to meet high global standards in design, space, safety, handling, fuel efficiency, and practicality while maintaining consistent high quality and reliability.

What Causes Engine Oil to Leak Out?

Engine oil leaking out is caused by the aging of the four supporting components, cylinder liner, piston, piston rings, and turbocharger. Reasons for the aging of the four supporting components: Failure of the "three filters" allows dust and impurities to enter the cylinder, causing abrasive wear. After replacing the four supporting components, the engine was not properly run-in according to the technical requirements, leading to excessive carbon deposits when the engine does not burn fuel completely. These deposits fall off and cause abrasive wear. Reasons for the aging of piston rings: Light leakage in piston rings, insufficient elasticity of the rings, reverse taper in rings with outer taper due to production issues, poor thermal stability of the rings, and significant loss of elasticity.

Why Does the Steering Gear Leak Oil?

The reasons for steering gear oil leakage include: penetration of screw holes, oil leakage at the bottom cover, and poor quality of oil seals. Here are the specific repair methods: 1. Penetration of screw holes: Add fiber thread or gaskets at the bolt root for sealing. 2. Oil leakage at the bottom cover: Re-machine the plane and holes or fit a guide tube. 3. Poor quality of oil seals: Replace the oil seals promptly and inspect the bearings and shaft diameters. If necessary, replace new bearings or polish the shaft diameters. Poor quality oil seals can lead to oil leakage at the steering arm, so it is essential to replace the oil seals in time.

Should You Use the Front or Rear Brake When Riding a Scooter Downhill?

It is recommended to prioritize the rear brake. Because road conditions are inherently unpredictable, especially when going downhill, using the front brake on slippery surfaces can easily cause the wheel to lock up. A locked rear brake is easier to handle, whereas a locked front brake can be extremely dangerous. Below is relevant information about vehicle front and rear brakes: 1. Handbrake and footbrake: When braking a car, generally all four wheels brake simultaneously. Commonly used brakes include the handbrake and footbrake. The footbrake is the primary braking system, typically engaging all four wheels, ensuring the vehicle stops smoothly and safely without sudden jerking. 2. Function: The handbrake usually applies braking force to the rear wheels. Primarily serving as an auxiliary brake, it prevents the vehicle from rolling on slopes or ensures parking safety. In cases of footbrake failure, it can provide supplementary braking, though its effectiveness is limited.

How Long Should You Wait to Add Water When the Engine Temperature is Too High?

When the engine temperature is high and the coolant level is low, you should not immediately add water or coolant, as this can easily cause burns. Below is relevant information about low engine coolant levels: 1. Reason for not adding water immediately: After the water in the radiator boils, there is internal pressure. If you open the radiator cap at this time, hot water may spray out, causing burns. You should wait until the vehicle has completely cooled down before adding any liquid. If possible, you should replenish the radiator with the same quality coolant. In emergencies, water can be added. 2. Adding water can cause scale buildup: High-quality coolant is made with distilled water and contains anti-scale additives, which not only prevent scale buildup but also help remove existing scale. Adding regular water can lead to scale formation. If there is significant scale buildup in the radiator, it is best to thoroughly clean it with a radiator cleaner before adding coolant. When adding coolant, make sure the product is within its expiration date. When replacing the coolant, drain the old liquid, clean the cooling system thoroughly, and then add the new coolant.

What are the standard dimensions for a private garage?

Large vehicle parking spaces should be 4 meters wide and 7 to 10 meters long, depending on the vehicle model; small vehicle parking spaces should be 2.2 to 2.5 meters wide and 5 meters long. For adjacent roads, small vehicles require a 5-meter width for single-side parking and 6 meters for double-side parking, while large vehicles need 8 meters. Below is relevant information about garage classifications: 1. Traditional garage: This refers to a brick-and-mortar garage, similar to a house. Also known as mechanical parking garages, these facilities use machinery to park and retrieve vehicles. Parking garages that store vehicles vertically are called mechanical multi-level parking garages. 2. Mobile garage: A newly emerged type of garage that has no fixed location and can be relocated. These are less expensive than traditional garages but have a relatively shorter lifespan. Typically, fabric mobile garages last about 3 months, but can last 1-2 years without human damage; all-steel mobile garages have a lifespan of 10-20 years.
