4.2-meter trucks should be serviced every 6 months or 5,000 kilometers, as recommended by the manufacturer. The maintenance interval is influenced by various factors, such as the daily driving conditions, the load carried by the vehicle, and the driver's skills, all of which can affect the service schedule. Trucks are generally referred to as freight trucks or lorries, including dump trucks, tractor trucks, off-road and rough-terrain trucks, and various specialized vehicles designed for specific needs. They are primarily used for transporting goods and sometimes for towing other vehicles, falling under the category of commercial vehicles.

Does the intake tract need cleaning?

Cleaning the intake tract is necessary. Frequent lack of cleaning can lead to weak vehicle acceleration and, in severe cases, even prevent the vehicle from starting. Cleaning the intake tract can also remove carbon deposits in the engine combustion chamber, as well as gum and carbon deposits generated during combustion, which helps protect the fuel injectors, extend their service life, increase engine power, and reduce fuel consumption. Additional information: There is no fixed cycle for cleaning the intake tract; it is generally done along with the intake system cleaning, and the specific timing depends on various factors, including individual driving habits, the vehicle's operating environment, and the control method of the fuel injection system. If the vehicle is frequently driven in urban areas, it is recommended to clean it every 20,000 to 30,000 kilometers. If the car is often driven in environments with poor air quality, the intake tract is more prone to getting dirty, which over time can affect engine intake and lead to difficulties in starting the vehicle. In such cases, cleaning should be performed earlier as appropriate.

How to Shift from D to S Gear in an Automatic Transmission?

To shift from D to S gear in an automatic transmission, simply move the gear lever directly. The correct way to use an automatic transmission is: 1. The vehicle can only be started in P or N gear. To shift out of P gear, you must press the brake pedal, turn on the power, press the brake, shift to N gear, and after ignition, shift to D gear to move forward directly; 2. When switching between N, D, and 3 gears, there is no need to press the shift button. To shift from 3 gear to lower restricted gears, you must press the shift button, but shifting from lower to higher gears does not require pressing the shift button; 3. Do not shift into N gear while driving to coast; 4. Never shift into P gear while driving; 5. After driving, you must turn off the engine, shift into P gear, and then remove the key.

Where are Vredestein tires produced?

Vredestein is a German brand newly entered the Chinese market, with its domestic production base located in Shandong, China. Additional information about tires is as follows: 1. Introduction: Tires are circular elastic rubber products assembled on various vehicles or machinery for ground rolling. Typically mounted on metal rims, they support the vehicle body, absorb external shocks, maintain contact with the road surface, and ensure driving performance. 2. Classification: Automotive tires can be divided into passenger car tires and truck tires based on their usage. Passenger car tires are mainly used for inflatable tires on cars, while truck tires are primarily for inflatable tires on trucks, buses, and trailers. By structure, automotive tires can be categorized into pneumatic tires and solid tires. Most modern vehicles use pneumatic tires, whereas solid tires are only applied to low-speed vehicles or heavy trailers operating on asphalt concrete pavement main roads.

Is There a Break-in Period for a New Car?

New cars do have a break-in period. During this period, the following points should be noted: 1. Normal driving during the break-in period: Control the maximum speed to 100Km/h and drive 3000-5000 kilometers for the break-in. 2. New transmission components of the car: The surfaces of the components always have certain minor imperfections, which result in less tight fitting and meshing between the components during operation, causing more intense friction at the contact points. If the operating speed is too high, it may lead to permanent damage to the components due to excessive friction temperature or load at the contact points. 3. Changing the lubricating oil: During the initial operation of new car transmission components, the relative speed at the contact points should not be too high, and the lubricating oil should be changed in time to prevent metal debris suspended in the lubricating oil from entering the friction surface and accelerating component wear.
