BYD Tang uses an electronic oil dipstick, with an oil level sensor located at the oil pan to measure the oil quantity. You can find the oil level display by using the up and down buttons on the steering wheel. The oil level should be at the displayed MAX mark. It is recommended to check the engine oil level every time you refuel the BYD Tang. For an accurate reading, the engine oil should not be cold, and the vehicle should be on a flat surface. Introduction to BYD Tang: 1. Body dimensions: The length, width, and height are 4870mm, 1940mm, and 1720mm respectively, with a wheelbase of 2820mm. 2. Powertrain: Equipped with a three-engine dual-mode powertrain system, consisting of a 2.0T turbocharged engine and two electric motors (front and rear), enabling independent power output for the front and rear wheels. In hybrid mode, all three engines work together, delivering a maximum power of 371 kW and a peak torque of 720 Nm.

What to Do When the BYD Song Battery Runs Out and Fails to Start?

There are two solutions when the BYD Song battery runs out and fails to start: 1. Jump-starting: Contact a rescue vehicle, connect the jumper cables, and temporarily charge the battery through the rescue vehicle to start the engine. This is the correct approach. To avoid being unable to charge when the car battery is dead, always keep a set of jumper cables in the car. When connecting the jumper cables, it is crucial not to mix up the connection sequence. First, connect the positive terminal of the dead battery to the positive terminal of the rescue vehicle's battery. Then, connect the negative terminal of the rescue vehicle's battery to a metal part (ground) in the engine compartment of the dead car. After connecting the jumper cables, start the rescue vehicle's engine and slightly increase its RPM. After about 5 minutes, the dead car can be temporarily charged. Once charging is complete, remove the jumper cables in the reverse order of connection. 2. Push-starting or Towing-starting: In the absence of jumper cables, push-starting or towing-starting is the most familiar and effective emergency starting method. However, this should not be used frequently as it may cause some damage to the engine and clutch, especially for automatic transmission vehicles, which should avoid using this method to start.

How to Solve the Abnormal Noise When Stepping on the Brake in P Gear?

P gear stepping on the brake and hearing a "click" sound does not necessarily mean the vehicle has a malfunction. The following two situations can cause this phenomenon: 1. The limit relay is operating: The function of the limit relay is to prevent the driver from shifting gears by mistake. If the driver does not step on the brake, the vehicle's limit relay will lock, and the vehicle cannot shift gears. If the driver steps on the brake at this time, the limit relay will disconnect and make a "click" sound, and then the vehicle can shift gears. This is a very normal phenomenon. 2. The vehicle is parked on a slope: When the vehicle is parked on a slope and shifted into P gear, a similar sound may also occur. The main reason is that when shifted into P gear, the transmission lock structure is not yet in place. After releasing the brake, the vehicle will slide back slightly, and the transmission lock mechanism will fully engage, making a similar sound during engagement. The solutions for the abnormal noise when stepping on the brake in P gear are as follows: 1. Pay attention to the operation sequence when parking on a slope: The correct way to park on a slope is to stop by stepping on the brake - pull up the handbrake - release the foot brake - shift into P gear after the vehicle is completely stopped. Avoid shifting into P gear before pulling up the handbrake. 2. Replace the limit relay: If the abnormal noise is very loud, it indicates that the limit relay may be aging. In this case, the only solution is to replace the limit relay.
