Adding lubricating oil to the joints in the door gaps can eliminate door squeaks. You can also use grease or engine oil, as 4S shops use liquid grease to achieve lubrication. Be careful not to add too much, as it may attract impurities. Doors and the car body are connected via hinges, and it is normal for hinges to make noise after prolonged use. To ensure the hinges remain smooth and quiet for a long time, you can regularly add lubricating oil every 2-3 months for maintenance. After extended use, the friction in the hinges increases, leading to abnormal noises. Therefore, what you need to do is spray automotive rust inhibitor on the hinges and then apply a small amount of grease, which will significantly reduce friction and eliminate door squeaks. Abnormal noises caused by door seals. With prolonged use, the door seals themselves gradually age, causing friction between the door seals and the car body, which may result in abnormal noises while driving. Another possible cause of door squeaks is loose door screws or window lift brackets. When driving on bumpy roads, the car windows may produce squeaks, which are likely due to loose screws or lift brackets inside the window glass. In such cases, you need to visit a repair shop to tighten the screws.

If the front wheels cross the line at a yellow light and it turns red, can I continue to drive?

If the vehicle has already crossed the stop line when the light turns yellow, it can continue to drive and it is not considered running a red light. According to regulations, when the yellow light is on, vehicles that have already crossed the stop line can continue to pass. Running a red light requires three photos to be taken: one when the front of the vehicle crosses the stop line at a red light, one when the rear of the vehicle crosses the stop line, and one when the entire vehicle completely passes the crosswalk. All three conditions must be met to constitute running a red light. According to Article 38 of the "Regulations for the Implementation of the Road Traffic Safety Law of the People's Republic of China": 1. When the green light is on: vehicles are allowed to pass, but turning vehicles must not hinder the passage of straight-going vehicles or pedestrians; 2. When the yellow light is on: vehicles that have already crossed the stop line can continue to pass; 3. When the red light is on: vehicles are prohibited from passing.

What is the normal fuel consumption of the FAW J6P 350?

The normal fuel consumption of the FAW J6P 350 is around 8 liters. The FAW J6P is a world-class commercial vehicle platform independently developed by FAW Jiefang, synchronizing with global truck development technology and tailored to China's specific conditions. After five years of meticulous refinement and three generations of development, it features reliability, economy, power, safety, and comfort. It can be divided into two major series, the J6P and J6M, targeting the heavy-duty truck market and the quasi-heavy-duty truck market, respectively. Here are specific methods to reduce fuel consumption: 1. Lightly press the accelerator: When starting at low speeds, the car enters a peak fuel consumption zone. Therefore, gently pressing the accelerator during startup prevents excessively high RPMs, effectively reducing fuel consumption. 2. Avoid high RPMs: Try to avoid unnecessary high RPMs, as fluctuating engine speeds can significantly increase fuel consumption. 3. Regular maintenance: Change the engine oil and remove carbon deposits periodically. 4. Avoid emergency braking: Anticipate road conditions in advance to avoid emergency braking. This not only improves driving safety but also saves fuel. For example, gradually slow down before traffic lights and utilize inertia to coast.
