How to Enable Stationary Exhaust Self-Cleaning for Fengjun 5?
2 Answers
When the Great Wall Fengjun 5's engine runs at 2000 RPM, the system will automatically clean carbon deposits in the exhaust. Below are the specific details of the Great Wall Fengjun 5: 1. Vehicle Positioning: The Fengjun 5 is a pickup truck under the Great Wall brand, with dimensions of 5095mm in length, 1800mm in width, and 1740mm in height, a wheelbase of 3050mm, and a front-engine, rear-wheel-drive layout. 2. Powertrain: It is equipped with a 2.4L naturally aspirated engine, delivering a maximum torque of 230 Nm, paired with a 5-speed manual transmission. 3. Suspension Type: The front suspension features a double-wishbone independent suspension, while the rear suspension uses a leaf spring non-independent suspension, with tire specifications of 235/70R16.
I remember the first time I took my Great Wall Wingle 5 on a long drive, the exhaust light came on, indicating a need for cleaning. The stationary exhaust self-cleaning feature is quite practical. After parking on level ground, pull the handbrake tight and shift into neutral, then start the engine and wait for the idle to stabilize for a few minutes. Next, locate the small button on the left side of the steering wheel, press and hold it for about five seconds until the dashboard shows "Regeneration in Progress." The entire process takes about twenty minutes, during which the RPM will increase slightly on its own—don’t press the accelerator, just sit quietly in the car and ensure there are no flammable materials nearby to avoid risks. I use this feature often, especially after long trips when carbon buildup triggers the system’s automatic reminder, helping prevent engine power loss. Remember not to turn off the engine midway, otherwise you’ll have to start over, which is not only a safety concern but also a hassle. This method has saved me a lot on maintenance costs.
