Method to open the hood of a Compass: (1) Below the driver's position on the left side, there is a square lever on the inner front side of the left front door. Pulling this lever will release the hood spring, creating a wide gap in the hood. (2) However, the hood is not fully open at this point. Move to the front of the vehicle and feel for another lever inside the gap. Push it to the left and lift the hood to fully open it. Below is some information about the Compass: The Compass is one of the members of the Jeep family, with body dimensions of 4415mm in length, 1819mm in width, and 1635mm in height, and a wheelbase of 2636mm. In terms of appearance, the Compass features the classic 7-slot grille, which gives it high recognition, and is equipped with halogen headlights that integrate high and low beams. In terms of power, the Compass is equipped with a 1.3T L4 turbocharged engine, paired with a 7-speed dual-clutch transmission, delivering a maximum horsepower of 173PS and a maximum torque of 270NM.

What Does Total Mileage of a Car Mean?

Total mileage of a car refers to the total distance the vehicle has traveled since it left the factory. Below is a detailed introduction about car mileage:1. Odometer: The speedometer indicates the speed of the car, with the unit being km/h (kilometers per hour). The car odometer actually consists of two meters: one is the speedometer, and the other is the odometer. The car odometer is usually located directly in front of the driver's position.2. Others: Traditional speedometers are mechanical. A typical mechanical odometer is connected to a flexible shaft, which contains a steel cable inside. The other end of the flexible shaft is connected to a gear in the transmission.

What are the clever solutions for retrieving a parking sign that fell into the front windshield?

The clever solutions for retrieving a parking sign that fell into the front windshield are as follows: 1. Tweezers: The gap in the front windshield is relatively large. If a temporary parking sign falls in, you can try using medical tweezers or slightly thinner tweezers to pick it out. 2. Wire hook: Bend a piece of wire into a hook shape, use a flashlight to determine the approximate location, and then hook out the parking sign with the wire. 3. Double-sided tape: Stick double-sided tape onto a piece of cardboard, insert it into the gap, and use it to pull out the parking sign. 4. Disassemble the dashboard: Go to a 4S shop to disassemble the dashboard, but try to minimize the disassembly as much as possible. The purpose of the windshield gap is as follows: Thermal expansion and contraction are common phenomena in objects. In summer, the temperature difference between day and night is significant. Under sunlight, the thermal expansion and contraction of the dashboard are very noticeable. If there were no gaps in the dashboard, it would press against the windshield when expanding due to high temperatures, thereby affecting the sealing.

How to Restore the Original Factory Settings for Wheel Alignment?

Car wheel alignment original factory data can be restored, with relevant information as follows:1. You can perform wheel alignment at a 4S shop or a quick repair shop: Wheel alignment requires precise equipment, so it's best to go to a professional quick repair shop. After driving for a period of time, cars may experience abnormal tire wear, accelerated part wear, heavy steering wheel, vehicle deviation, increased fuel consumption, etc.2. Wheel alignment: It not only ensures the normal operation of the car but also extends the service life of the tires while saving fuel.3. Wheel alignment refers to the alignment angles of the suspension system when the vehicle leaves the factory: These alignment angles are preset according to design requirements to ensure the safety of the vehicle's operation. The angles refer to the angles between the suspension system and various moving parts.4. Maintaining the correct wheel alignment angles: Ensures the vehicle's straight-line stability, handling, and the responsiveness of the steering system, prevents improper bearing stress and loss of precision, and ensures tight contact between the tires and the ground, reducing improper tire wear and ensuring stability when the car turns.

What is the difference between methanol gasoline and ethanol gasoline?

Methanol gasoline has a lower price and belongs to alcohol-based fuel, with the lowest density and the least stable usage; ethanol gasoline is made by adding 10% modified ethanol to regular gasoline, and its cost is higher than that of regular gasoline. Methanol gasoline provides more power than ethanol gasoline, while ethanol gasoline has higher fuel consumption. More details are as follows: Methanol gasoline: Methanol gasoline is a low-carbon energy source that can replace regular gasoline and is specifically used as automotive fuel for gasoline internal combustion engine vehicles. It is produced by blending industrial methanol or fuel methanol with denatured alcohol additives and existing national standard gasoline in a certain volume ratio. Ethanol gasoline: Ethanol gasoline is a new alternative energy source formed by blending fuel ethanol processed from grains and various plant fibers with regular gasoline in a certain proportion.

What is the reason for the Wuling Zhiguang auxiliary water tank spitting water?

Wuling Zhiguang auxiliary water tank spits water because after the car is parked, the water pump and fan stop working, and the engine's water temperature continues to rise. The radiator cap is a two-way valve, and when the pressure is high, water from the radiator will flow to the auxiliary water tank. The solutions for the car's auxiliary water tank spitting water are as follows: 1. Accelerator causing water spillover: Solution for blown cylinder gasket (wet cylinder liner) or cylinder liner, cylinder head having large sand holes or cracks. During engine operation, the pressure of compressed air or combustion gas in the cylinder is greater than the pressure of the coolant in the cooling water passage. These gases will be forced into the engine's water passage through the damaged cylinder gasket or the large sand holes or cracks in the cylinder liner or cylinder head. 2. Water (gas) pipe blockage or poor flow: Solution for the upper water chamber of the radiator or the return water (gas) pipe from the upper part of the thermostat to the expansion tank being blocked or not flowing smoothly. Try downshifting when climbing a slope to eliminate the issue. Explore other possible causes of water spillover. 3. Expansion tank water not being replenished in time: The water in the expansion tank cannot be replenished to the engine in time, but the water from the engine's return pipe is still being discharged, so the water in the expansion tank keeps increasing, causing spillover. If the radiator is blocked, the water pump will suck water from the lower water chamber of the radiator and the replenishment pipe, but when trying to flow to the radiator, due to the blockage, the return pipe at the upper end of the radiator also accelerates the return of water, causing the expansion tank water to increase more and more, resulting in spillover.
