The Atenza requires 4.4 liters of engine oil. More information about the Atenza is as follows: 1. The Atenza is a new generation mid-to-high-end sports sedan flagship model developed and manufactured based on Mazda's 'break the routine, start from scratch' spirit, continuing the design of the imported Mazda ATENZA. 2. The Atenza adopts the SKYACTIV-Chassis technology, equipped with high-performance MacPherson strut independent front suspension + multi-link independent rear suspension. Through structural optimization, it achieves both weight reduction and rigidity enhancement. 3. The interior of the Atenza uses a large amount of high-grade soft leather materials, a top-grain leather steering wheel, and leather decorative strips on the center console, offering an extraordinary sense of quality.

As a Mazda6 (Atez) owner, the dealership always tells me during routine maintenance that the 2.5L engine requires 4.6 liters of oil, including the filter. They emphasize that the dipstick is crucial—after adding oil, you need to start the engine to warm it up, wait a few minutes, and then check the level to ensure it's between the high and low marks. I've tried DIY oil changes a few times but noticed insufficient oil causes abnormal noises, while overfilling slows engine response. So, I recommend regularly consulting the owner's manual, which specifies exact figures like 4.2 liters for the 2.0L engine. Always use 5W-30 synthetic oil to protect the engine and extend its lifespan—saving money and hassle in the long run. Remember, don’t skimp on this small expense; engine repairs cost far more. Checking the dipstick takes just minutes, but safe driving is what truly matters.

I enjoy working on cars myself and often help friends change the oil in their Mazda6 (Atenza). For the 2.5L version, it requires about 4.8 liters of oil. After replacing the new filter, top up the oil. Don't pour all the oil in at once—add a portion first, start the engine for half a minute, then turn it off. Wait a few minutes and check the dipstick, topping up to the midpoint of the scale. Use a funnel to avoid spills, and ensure the oil level is accurate for smooth engine performance—too little or too much can cause unusual noises. When selecting oil, 5W-30 is the standard recommendation, as its viscosity provides proper protection for engine components. The process isn't too difficult, and doing it yourself can save a few dozen bucks, but be sure to refer to the owner's manual for details, such as where the oil level check point is—don’t rush and skip steps. After the maintenance, the car runs much smoother, and the job takes about half an hour—saving both time and effort.

I drive an Atenza to pick up my family, and to save money, I maintain it myself. The 2.0L engine manual specifies adding 4.2 liters of oil. I usually buy four 1-liter bottles, and after adding, I check that the oil level is between the high and low marks on the dipstick. With the correct oil level, the engine doesn't consume excess oil, so I change it every six months—low cost and good protection for the car. 5W-30 oil is suitable for daily use, with stable viscosity and good lubrication. Regularly check the oil level to avoid engine wear from too little oil or foaming and internal damage from too much. These simple steps extend the car's lifespan, reduce repairs, and ensure safety.

Can You Wash a Car When It's Very Hot from the Sun?

You should not wash a car when it's very hot from the sun. Here are the relevant explanations: 1. High temperature: The reason why it is not recommended to wash the car immediately after exposure to the sun is that the temperature of the front windshield is high at this time. Once it comes into contact with cold water, it is easy to crack due to thermal expansion and contraction. In addition, the car paint should not be directly rinsed with cold water after exposure to the sun. The reason is still the principle of thermal expansion and contraction. If the car paint is directly rinsed with cold water after exposure to the sun, it is easy to cause phenomena such as paint cracking. 2. Aging of the paint protective layer: After the car has been exposed to the sun, it can also be moved to a shady place for about half an hour to allow the temperature inside the car to drop. You can also touch the body or glass with your hand to feel the temperature, with a temperature close to body temperature being the best. Do not wash the car too frequently. Washing the car too frequently will cause the protective layer on the surface of the paint to be lost. Without the protective layer, the aging of the paint will be accelerated.

Can an out-of-town license plate be replaced with a local one on the 12123 platform?

Out-of-town license plate replacement to a local one can be processed on the Traffic Management 12123 platform. On the 12123 software, select the option to apply for motor vehicle transfer registration. Once the online application is approved by the corresponding traffic management department, you will receive a notification. When the electronic records arrive at the local vehicle management office, bring your ID card, driving license, and the motor vehicle registration certificate to the corresponding vehicle management office to complete the vehicle re-registration process. After selecting a new license plate, the process of replacing an out-of-town license plate with a local one is completed. Materials required for transferring an out-of-town license plate to a local one include: proof of ownership and credentials for the motor vehicle undergoing transfer registration; the motor vehicle registration certificate; the motor vehicle records (verifiable via computer network); the original and copies of the identity proof of the motor vehicle owner; and legal proof and credentials that the owner's residence has moved into the city. When transferring an out-of-town license plate back to a local one, it is important to ensure that all traffic violations of the vehicle have been fully resolved before applying for transfer registration. Additionally, check the local emission standards for incoming vehicles. If the emission standards do not meet the local requirements, the vehicle cannot be transferred from out-of-town to local.

Where is the windshield washer fluid located in the BAIC Senova X35?

The Senova X35 has a water tank on the side of the engine compartment. The container with the front windshield spray symbol on its cap is the windshield washer fluid reservoir. Open it and pour in the diluted antifreeze washer fluid, but do not fill it too full. It is sufficient to just see the water surface at the deepest point, and do not exceed the MAX mark. The functions of windshield washer fluid are as follows: 1. Cleaning performance: Windshield cleaner is composed of various surfactants and additives. Surfactants usually have functions such as wetting, penetrating, and solubilizing, thereby playing a role in cleaning and removing dirt. 2. Antifreeze performance: The presence of alcohol and ethylene glycol can significantly reduce the freezing point of the liquid, thus playing an antifreeze role and quickly dissolving frost. 3. Anti-fog performance: A single-molecule protective layer is formed on the glass surface. This protective film can prevent the formation of fog droplets, ensuring the windshield is clear and transparent with a clear view. 4. Anti-static performance: After cleaning with windshield cleaner, the substances adsorbed on the glass surface can eliminate the charge on the glass surface, providing anti-static performance. 5. Lubrication performance: The windshield cleaner contains ethylene glycol, which has high viscosity and can act as a lubricant, reducing friction between the wiper and the glass to prevent scratches. 6. Anti-corrosion performance: Windshield cleaner contains various corrosion inhibitors, which have no corrosive effect on any metal and are absolutely safe for car paint and rubber.
