When driving the Roewe RX5, the first thing I do after starting the engine is to glance at the coolant temperature gauge. The dial is positioned in the middle or on the right side of the instrument panel, featuring a small thermometer icon, with the needle typically displaying between C (Cold) and H (Hot). After driving normally for a few minutes, the needle should stabilize in the middle zone, around 90 degrees, indicating the engine is at the optimal temperature for smooth operation. If the needle drifts toward the H side, it means the coolant temperature is too high, possibly due to insufficient coolant or a malfunctioning fan. In such cases, it's crucial to slow down and pull over immediately to prevent the engine from overheating and damaging components. During a cold start in winter, the needle may initially stay in the C zone but should rise after driving for a while. Developing a habit of regularly checking this gauge is beneficial—the Roewe RX5's layout is intuitive, making it easy even for beginners. Additionally, it's advisable to periodically check the coolant level to avoid unexpected issues that could disrupt your trip.

What Causes the Noise from the Vehicle's Subframe?

In reality, the noise is actually caused by friction between metal components. When this noise occurs, it may be due to the following issues: Generally, replacing the stabilizer bar bushings is quite labor-intensive because these bushings are usually located on the subframe, making the disassembly process costly. If the bushings are severely worn, they may produce a thumping or dull sound. If the wear is less severe and the bushings have only hardened, they may emit a squeaking noise. Articulated Subframe: An articulated subframe includes a subframe body, which consists of a C-shaped support frame, connecting brackets, and connecting hinge pins. At both ends of the C-shaped support frame, a connecting bracket is hinged via a connecting hinge pin. Movable Structure: This utility model of an articulated subframe replaces the traditional monolithic subframe with a structure where the C-shaped support frame and connecting brackets are linked via hinge pins. During use, both the connecting brackets and the C-shaped support frame are movable structures. The movement of the hinge pins reduces stress on the articulated joints, thereby minimizing wear. Even if the connecting parts wear out over time, the cost of replacing components can be reduced by simply replacing the hinge pins. This lowers overall usage costs and improves material utilization efficiency.

Can I Get a Refund If I Haven't Taken the Subject 1 Test?

You can get a refund if you haven't taken the Subject 1 test, but this depends on negotiation with your driving school and their willingness to issue the refund. Here are some considerations when choosing a driving school: Check qualifications: Ensure the school has a valid business license and a road transport operation permit. Assess strength: Evaluate the school's facilities, including whether they have their own training grounds, vehicles, and adequate lighting for evening sessions, as well as a mock test site. Transparent pricing: Avoid low-price traps that may lead to hidden fees or delays. Reputable schools usually charge a one-time, all-inclusive fee.

What is the difference between Auto Start-Stop and Auto Hold?

Auto Start-Stop and Auto Hold have the following differences: 1. Different purposes: The main purpose of Auto Hold is to increase the convenience for drivers and passengers, avoiding accidents caused by vehicle rollback while waiting at traffic lights; whereas Auto Start-Stop is more focused on environmental protection, primarily by recognizing the vehicle's driving status and shutting off the engine to achieve energy savings and emission reduction. 2. Different working states: When Auto Hold and Auto Start-Stop are in operation, the former allows complete release of both feet, while the latter requires continuous braking to ensure the Auto Start-Stop function works properly.
