For minor paint scratches on a white car, you can use toothpaste or a touch-up pen. Here are the specific methods: 1. For slight damage, apply toothpaste: Apply toothpaste to these minor scratches and gently rub to remove them. The fine particles in the toothpaste gradually polish away the visible scratches. However, avoid using granulated toothpaste as it may worsen the scratches. 2. For mild damage, use a touch-up pen: When the scratches on the paint surface are very noticeable, it is recommended to use a touch-up pen that matches the car's body color for treatment.

What are the symptoms of a dead battery in a Cruze?

Symptoms of a slightly dead battery in a Cruze: prolonged car starting time; no response when starting; multiple warning lights illuminate simultaneously. Methods to check the condition of the battery are as follows: 1. Inspect the battery's exterior: Check if the battery casing is bulging, leaking, has broken separators, or corroded terminals. If any of these signs are present, the battery is dead and needs replacement. 2. Measure the battery voltage: After charging for two hours, check the voltage of each battery cell every 20 minutes. If it's below 13, the battery has issues. During discharge, test every 10 minutes in three intervals. If the discharge time is faster than other batteries and the voltage drops below 10V, the battery is faulty. 3. Check for "dehydration" or blackening: After charging the battery for 3-6 hours, if the charger's red light remains on, it indicates severe "dehydration." Open the battery's top cover to see six round holes. If the electrolyte in any hole appears black, it means the lead paste on the plates has fallen off, and the battery is dead.

What is the fuel tank capacity of the BX5 Borgward?

The fuel tank capacity of the Borgward BX5 is 60 liters, as officially announced. Owners who have purchased the Borgward BX5 can also check this information on the vehicle's configuration sheet. The Borgward BX5 requires 92-octane fuel, with a fuel consumption of 5.8-7.6L per 100 kilometers. A full tank can cover a distance of 789-1034km. During daily driving, it is necessary to always pay attention to the remaining fuel level in the tank. This is usually observed through the fuel gauge inside the vehicle. If there are no other issues, the fuel level will be accurately reflected on the gauge. The fuel gauge typically has 5 to 6 segments, and it is advisable to refuel when there are only 2 segments left to avoid running out of fuel midway. During actual refueling, the amount of fuel may exceed the calibrated capacity. This is because the fuel tank capacity specified by the manufacturer is measured from the bottom of the tank to the safety limit, and there is additional space from the safety limit to the tank opening. This space ensures that the fuel can expand when the temperature rises without overflowing. If fuel is added up to the tank opening during refueling, the actual amount of fuel added may exceed the calibrated tank capacity.

What are the causes of automatic transmission failure in the v73?

Here are the specific reasons for automatic transmission failure in the v73: 1. Solenoid valve damage. Many cases of vehicle jerking during driving are caused by damaged shift solenoids or pressure solenoids. If the oil pressure solenoid is damaged, it can result in oil pressure that is too low or too high, leading to a sensation of impact or lag when the clutch or brake engages. Similarly, a stuck shift solenoid can cause power interruption. 2. Steel plate and friction plate burning. For example: shifting from 1st to 2nd gear and 2nd to 3rd gear may be normal, as well as other gears, but jerking occurs specifically when shifting from 3rd to 4th gear. This is likely due to slippage in the clutch or brake responsible for 4th gear. It is necessary to rule out solenoid valve failure, as solenoids can be easily measured and checked after removing the oil pan. Burnt clutch plates not only cause jerky shifting but also result in weak driving performance, and the debris from friction can contaminate the transmission fluid. 3. Failure to regularly change transmission fluid. If the automatic transmission is not maintained for a long time, various performance indicators of the transmission fluid, such as lubricity, viscosity, and temperature stability, will significantly decline. Particularly, the temperature of the automatic transmission fluid can become problematic if the radiator is too dirty and cannot dissipate heat. When the computer detects high temperatures, it will enter an emergency operation mode. When the oil temperature exceeds 135°, it can cause significant damage to friction plates, clutch plates, and other components.
