Methods for adjusting excessive tailgate gap: 1. The tailgate and hinges are typically secured by 4 screws. Open the tailgate, loosen the screws without removing them; 2. Gently push the tailgate left or right to adjust its position and softly close it to align, ensuring the gaps on both sides are roughly equal. Then, slightly reopen the tailgate and tighten the screws. After tightening, close the tailgate again to check if the gap is appropriate. If not, repeat steps 1 and 2; 3. If adjusting by loosening one screw on each side doesn't work, loosen all screws. Adjust the tailgate position, then tighten the lower screws on both sides first, followed by adjusting the position and tightening the upper two screws; 4. After installation, repeatedly test the tailgate's closing and locking mechanism to ensure the lock aligns properly with the striker. If not, loosen the striker's screws on the rear panel to adjust its position, or gently tap the striker with a hammer to align it with the lock.

Why does the Reiz have unstable idle speed?

Here is a detailed introduction to the causes of unstable idle speed in the Reiz: 1. Excessive carbon buildup in the throttle. 2. Leakage in the intake manifold or various valves: This fault directly affects the quality of the fuel-air mixture and combustion efficiency. Possible leakage points include the intake manifold, vacuum tubes, charcoal canister valve, exhaust gas recirculation (EGR) valve, positive crankcase ventilation (PCV) valve, etc., which need to be inspected and repaired one by one. 3. Valve timing fault: Incorrect valve timing, improperly installed timing belt, excessive carbon buildup on intake and exhaust valves, broken valve springs, etc., can cause uneven air intake in each cylinder, leading to unstable idle speed. 4. Clogged three-way catalytic converter: A clogged three-way catalytic converter not only causes unstable idle speed but also results in insufficient power. 5. Fuel injector fault: Issues such as poor fuel atomization or clogged injectors require cleaning the injectors. 6. Low fuel pressure: Mainly check for clogged components like the fuel filter and fuel pump, or deformed fuel lines. 7. Engine misfire. 8. Excessive or insufficient ignition advance angle: Mostly caused by problems with various signal sensors, such as the air flow sensor, Hall sensor, knock sensor, coolant temperature sensor, etc., which need to be analyzed with a diagnostic tool.
