The appearance of a wrench on the dashboard is a maintenance reminder indicator, signaling that your vehicle is approaching or has exceeded the recommended maintenance mileage, and you should visit a 4S shop for servicing as soon as possible. Here is additional information: 1. This indicator is not a standard feature in all vehicles and will only appear in models equipped with this function. After servicing, the technicians at the 4S shop or repair shop can help you reset it, or you can do it yourself. The methods are generally similar but may vary depending on the brand and model. Detailed instructions can be found in the vehicle's manual. 2. The most intuitive check during a new car inspection: inspection of dashboard indicator lights. When inspecting a new car, pay close attention to the following indicator lights: engine fault, airbag, coolant temperature, ABS, seat belt, car battery, engine oil, fuel level, door not closed properly, brake disc, handbrake, turn signal, high beam, windshield washer fluid, fog light, and width light.

The small wrench icon on the CX-4 dashboard is a maintenance reminder, indicating that it's time for service, such as an oil change or inspection. To cancel it, the process is quite simple. First, park in a safe place, turn off the engine, and ensure the vehicle is stationary. Then, turn the key to the ON position (the position before ignition), but do not start the engine. Next, look at the dashboard—you'll see menu options displayed. Press and hold the TRIP button on the steering wheel or near the dashboard (or another selection button, as the location may vary slightly depending on the model year) for a few seconds to enter the settings menu. Find the maintenance or reset option and press the confirmation button to cancel the reminder. It's recommended to reset it after each service to avoid constant pop-ups while driving. With over a decade of driving experience, I always remember this reminder—regular maintenance is crucial for engine health, extends the car's lifespan, and reduces the risk of major issues.

What is China 6 Vehicle?

China 6 vehicles refer to those compliant with the China 6 emission standards, officially known as the National Sixth Stage Emission Standards for Motor Vehicle Pollutants. These standards were established to implement the Environmental Protection Law of the People's Republic of China and the Air Pollution Prevention and Control Law of the People's Republic of China, aiming to control vehicle pollutant emissions and improve ambient air quality. Under the China 6a emission standards, the carbon monoxide emission limit for gasoline and diesel vehicles is set at 0.5g per kilometer. China 6a essentially adopts the lower limits of the China 5 standards, while China 6b represents the true China 6 emission standards with significantly stricter control over nitrogen oxide emissions, showing a substantial reduction compared to previous standards. Additionally, it imposes limits on nitrogen dioxide emissions, which were not regulated during the China 5 phase.

Can I have my car serviced outside the dealership where I bought it?

You can have your car serviced outside the dealership where you bought it. Car owners have the right to choose their own maintenance service providers. If the car is serviced outside the dealership during the warranty period, it will not affect the warranty service. However, it is important to keep all maintenance receipts and relevant service records when servicing elsewhere, so that if major issues arise later, the dealership cannot shirk responsibility. The purpose of car maintenance is to keep the vehicle clean, ensure normal technical conditions, eliminate potential hazards, prevent faults, slow down deterioration, and extend the vehicle's lifespan. Modern car maintenance mainly includes servicing the engine system, transmission system, air conditioning system, cooling system, fuel system, power steering system, and more.

What are the principles for handling emergency situations while driving?

The principles for handling emergency situations while driving are: remain calm and composed, adhere to the principle of avoiding pedestrians before objects. When a vehicle is traveling at high speed, sudden steering can easily cause the vehicle to skid and collide or overturn due to centrifugal force. Therefore, even if a collision with the vehicle ahead is possible, the driver should first brake to reduce speed, then steer to avoid. Emergency measures for special situations: vehicle collisions mostly occur when the vehicle ahead suddenly slows down or changes direction abruptly, and the extent of damage mainly depends on the impact speed and location. When there is a possibility of a side collision, the first priority is to control the direction, following the direction of the vehicle ahead to transform a side collision into a glancing collision, thereby reducing the severity of damage.

Why is the wiper making a scraping noise?

The reasons for the wiper making a scraping noise are: 1. The wiper blade has aged and hardened; 2. There is a foreign object between the wiper blade and the windshield; 3. The linkage mechanism is deformed or there is a problem with the motor clearance relay, etc.; 4. If the wiper moves too fast, too slow, or continuously, it is because the angle of the wiper arm is incorrect.

Which Cars Have Electronic Suspension?

Electronic suspension detects the vehicle's operating conditions through sensors and adjusts the damping stiffness via onboard actuators, making the vehicle run more smoothly. Cars equipped with electronic suspension include the Golf GTI, Cadillac CT5, BMW E90 M3, BMW E92 M3, Ferrari 599 GTB, etc. MRC Magnetic Ride Control: The top-tier Cadillac CT5 model is equipped with MRC magnetic ride suspension, which can alter the density of the fluid inside the shock absorbers, thereby changing the damping of the shock absorbers. Electronic Suspension Features: Cars with electronic suspension can adjust the damping stiffness electronically, improving both ride comfort and handling performance.
