Currently, there is no online channel to check whether your new car has been registered for ETC by the previous owner. You can only inquire at a bank branch by presenting relevant documents such as your ID card and vehicle license. ETC Usage Precautions: The ETC transaction sensing range is 8 meters. When the vehicle in front stops, to prevent the ETC device of the front vehicle from malfunctioning or not having an ETC device at all, maintain a distance of more than 10 meters to avoid automatic payment for the front vehicle. The recognition speed for ETC lanes is 20 km/h. If the vehicle speed is too fast, the system may fail to read the vehicle's device information, resulting in a failed transaction. Unauthorized removal or movement of the OBU device, or if the ETC electronic tag falls off or becomes loose, may cause the electronic tag to become invalid. In such cases, you can take it to the bank where the ETC card was issued or to the highway service office for inspection. If the tag becomes loose or falls off due to non-human factors, it only needs to be reactivated.

What Causes Unstable Engine Idling?

Here are the reasons for unstable engine idling: 1. Excessive carbon buildup in the throttle body and mass air flow sensor. The throttle body and mass air flow sensor are prone to dirt accumulation. Most modern vehicles use electronic throttle bodies, where even minor carbon deposits can affect performance. Excessive carbon buildup in the throttle body may cause throttle hesitation, severe power loss, and unstable idling. 2. Excessive carbon deposits in the cylinder combustion chamber and on pistons. Too much carbon buildup in the combustion chamber can absorb some fuel, slightly prolonging the ignition startup time. Additionally, heavy carbon deposits often form on valves and piston rings, indirectly causing insufficient cylinder compression. 3. Weak spark caused by faulty spark plugs. Spark plugs can also accumulate carbon deposits, which can be cleaned to restore their activity. However, some spark plugs may be nearing the end of their service life, leading to performance degradation. 4. Fuel pressure malfunction. Low fuel pressure results in poor fuel atomization from the injectors, with fuel spraying in lines or even droplets in severe cases, reducing fuel injection quantity and making the air-fuel mixture too lean. 5. Various component failures. Issues such as intake manifold leaks, valve leaks, fuel pressure malfunctions (especially low pressure), and ignition system failures can also cause unstable engine idling.

Reasons Why the Car Compressor Does Not Rotate

Reasons why the car compressor does not rotate are as follows: 1. Severe internal wear of the compressor, leading to inability to function normally. The compressor plays a crucial role in the air conditioning system, primarily compressing and delivering cold air, which causes the compressor to operate in a high-speed rotating state for extended periods. 2. Check if there is any leakage in the refrigerant, as the compressor will not work without cold air to compress or deliver. 3. Faults in the electrical system are also a very common reason why the car air conditioning compressor fails to operate normally. You can check if the circuit is unobstructed and inspect the temperature sensor solenoid valve.

How Many Horsepower Does a Car Air Conditioner Have?

Car air conditioners consume approximately 3-5 kilowatts of power (about 4-8 horsepower). Below are specific details about car air conditioners: 1. The car air conditioning system is a device that cools, heats, ventilates, and purifies the air inside the cabin. 2. Car air conditioners provide a comfortable environment for passengers and reduce driver fatigue. 3. The air conditioning system has become one of the indicators to measure whether a car is fully equipped. 4. Modern car air conditioners have four functions, each designed to enhance passenger comfort. (1) The air conditioner can control the cabin temperature, both heating and cooling the air to maintain a comfortable level. (2) The air conditioner can remove humidity from the air. Dry air absorbs human sweat, creating a more comfortable environment. (3) The air conditioner can intake fresh air, providing ventilation. (4) The air conditioner can filter the air, removing dust and pollen.

What is the fuel consumption of Changan Oushang x5?

Changan Oushang x5 has a comprehensive fuel consumption of 6.0-6.3L/100km. Currently, there are 15 models of Changan Oushang x5 on sale. The DCT Whirlwind Charge, DCT Flagship, DCT Hurricane Sonic, DCT Elite, DCT Premium, DCT Luxury, and DCT Tiger Roar Limited Edition have a comprehensive fuel consumption of 6.2L/100km. The CVT Youth Edition, CVT Flagship, CVT Premium, CVT Comfort, CVT Premium, and CVT Luxury have a comprehensive fuel consumption of 6.3L/100km. The manual Luxury and manual Elite have a comprehensive fuel consumption of 6L/100km. The above figures are the NEDC comprehensive fuel consumption, which is the fuel consumption data measured under the NEDC test procedure. The actual fuel consumption is higher than this value, ranging from 6.0-8.6L/100km. The level of car fuel consumption is directly related to five major factors: driving habits, the car itself, road conditions, natural wind, and environmental temperature. The specific factors that can increase car fuel consumption are as follows: Driving habits: Rough driving, such as sudden acceleration, frequent overtaking, and not releasing the throttle in advance when encountering a red light, will increase fuel consumption. The car itself: Cars with larger displacement consume more fuel than those with smaller displacement because larger displacement generally means greater power, requiring more gasoline to burn and do work. Cars with greater weight will have higher fuel consumption because greater weight requires larger driving torque. Road conditions: Driving on dirt roads, muddy roads, soft surfaces, mountain roads, etc., where resistance is high, will increase fuel consumption. Natural wind: Driving against the wind or on windy days increases car resistance and fuel consumption. Low environmental temperature: When the engine block temperature is low, the gasoline injected during cold starts is not easy to atomize, requiring more gasoline to be injected for combustion, thus increasing fuel consumption. At the same time, low temperatures cause the engine computer to control the engine to run at higher RPMs to warm up, which also increases fuel consumption.

How to Remotely Start a Vehicle?

To remotely start a vehicle, follow these steps: 1. Aim the key at the vehicle and press the lock button on the key, then within 5 seconds, hold the remote start button for at least 4 seconds or until the vehicle's turn signals flash. 2. The parking lights will illuminate and remain on while the engine is running. After entering the vehicle during a remote start session, press the brake pedal and turn the ignition switch to the ON/RUN position to drive the vehicle. The car's smart keyless entry system, abbreviated as PKE, utilizes the world's advanced RFID radio frequency technology and sophisticated vehicle identity coding recognition system. It pioneers the application of miniaturized, low-power RF antenna development solutions and successfully integrates remote control systems with keyless systems while maintaining traditional vehicle circuit protection. This truly achieves a dual RF system and dual anti-theft protection, providing convenience and security for vehicle owners.
