There is no specific cleaning interval for the particulate filter. Cleaning is required when the particulate filter malfunction indicator light on the dashboard illuminates. Particulate Filter Cleaning Method: First, remove the particulate filter and place it on the testing equipment. Use the probe on the device to check the clogging condition of the particulate filter. Then, preheat the cleaning equipment to 300 degrees Celsius, place the particulate filter inside, and adjust the temperature to 600 degrees Celsius for carbon deposit oxidation treatment. After the treatment is completed, cool the particulate filter and then use a high-pressure purging tool for purging. Once cleaning is finished, record the particulate filter's data using professional measuring equipment. After completing the above steps, reassemble the particulate filter and install it back into the vehicle. Function of the Particulate Filter: The particulate filter can reduce soot produced by diesel engines by more than 90%, and the captured particulate emissions are subsequently burned off during vehicle operation.

How to Solve High Fuel Consumption in Sedans?

When a car starts at low speed, it is in the peak fuel consumption zone. Therefore, gently pressing the accelerator during startup to prevent excessively high RPM can effectively reduce fuel consumption. Avoid unnecessary high RPM as much as possible, as fluctuating engine speeds can also significantly increase fuel consumption. Change the engine oil and remove carbon deposits. Anticipating road conditions in advance not only improves driving safety but also saves fuel, such as gradually slowing down before traffic lights and utilizing inertia to coast.

Can Water Enter a Car's Transmission?

When a vehicle passes through excessively deep water, there is a possibility of water entering the transmission, which can lead to malfunctions. There are two scenarios for transmission water ingress: If the water level exceeds two-thirds of the wheel height: The probability of water entering the transmission is approximately 80% to 90%. If the water has already submerged the dashboard: The transmission is 100% certain to have water ingress. Here are three key practices for driving through water: Turn off the air conditioning: When the air conditioning is on, the electric fan located at the front of the vehicle will rotate. During water crossings, the rotating fan blades can stir up water splashes, potentially causing water to enter the transmission. Therefore, it is advisable to turn off the air conditioning before entering deep water and wait for the electric fan to stop before proceeding. Meeting oncoming vehicles in water: If you encounter an oncoming vehicle while driving through water, pay close attention to the height of the water waves generated by the front of their vehicle. If the waves are too high, you should accelerate slightly. This is because the waves created by your own vehicle can help counteract those from the oncoming vehicle, reducing the risk of water ingress. It is crucial to remain calm in such situations and avoid braking suddenly. Turn off all onboard electrical devices: Examples include the air conditioning and dash cams. The purpose is to prevent electrical equipment from short-circuiting or losing power due to water exposure.

What to Do If You Can't Reverse into the Parking Space?

Control the speed properly, not too fast. Turn your body sideways and focus on the right rear wheel in the right rearview mirror. Turn the steering wheel to the left in half-turn increments, then continue watching the right rear wheel. Keep an eye on the right rear wheel. When it is exactly on the right extension line of the parking space, quickly turn the steering wheel all the way to the right. Generally, the distance should be 10cm-15cm at this time. Immediately look at the left rearview mirror. When the left corner of the parking space appears, straighten the wheel and make minor adjustments. Stop at the designated point.
