The Breeze's water temperature gauge features a dedicated needle indicating the current water temperature. If the water temperature warning light is on, it is typically due to the vehicle being parked for an extended period, causing the water temperature to remain low—a normal occurrence. To resolve this, warm up the car while stationary, then drive slowly for about five minutes after starting. The warning light will turn off once the water temperature rises. The Breeze is a compact SUV produced by GAC Honda, with body dimensions of 4634mm in length, 1855mm in width, and 1679mm in height, and a wheelbase of 2661mm. It is equipped with an engine delivering a maximum power of 142kW and a maximum torque of 243Nm. The front suspension employs a MacPherson strut independent suspension, while the rear suspension utilizes a multi-link independent suspension.

When I first started driving the Breeze, I was also quite confused about the water temperature gauge. It's located in the middle of the dashboard with a thermometer icon, and the needle moves from C to H. After a cold start, the needle stays near C, and as the engine warms up, it rises to the middle position, around 90 degrees, which is normal. If the needle approaches H, the engine might be overheating, and you should stop immediately, turn off the engine, and check the coolant level to avoid engine damage. Once, I got stuck in traffic and forgot to check, causing the needle to spike and trigger an alarm. Fortunately, I handled it in time to prevent any damage. I recommend making it a habit to glance at the water temperature gauge while driving, especially during hot summers or long trips. Regular maintenance checks on the cooling system are also crucial, and using high-quality antifreeze can help stabilize the water temperature.

What are the pros and cons of car covers?

The benefits of car covers are that they can help outdoor parked cars resist damage from ultraviolet radiation, direct sunlight, acid rain, bird droppings, windblown sand, and animal claws, as well as prevent dirt, dust, rain, and snow from affecting the vehicle. They also protect against UV damage to the car's paint and interior. The downside is that they can affect the car's paint. When the cover is blown by the wind, it rubs against the car's paint, reducing its gloss. More details are as follows: 1. Definition: A car cover, also known as an automobile outer cover, is a protective garment made of fabric or other flexible, wear-resistant materials tailored to the car's dimensions. It serves as a protective accessory for vehicles, offering excellent protection for the paint and windows. Particularly for high-end cars, regular use of a car cover can extend the paint's lifespan and keep it looking as good as new. 2. Direct use drawbacks: Since a car's paint is exposed daily to dust, mud, resin, and flying sand while in use, directly applying a car cover when parking can cause the dirt on the car's surface to scratch the paint as the cover rubs against it during placement. Additionally, most car covers today have a flocked inner layer, which can accumulate dirt from the car's surface over time, making the cover dirty and potentially causing more harm to the paint.

How to Avoid Battery Drain in Winter?

Methods to prevent car battery drain in winter are as follows: 1. After parking at night: Shift the gear to neutral or N position, and observe if the car lights dim. When the vehicle is in neutral, the engine is idling, and the lights are powered entirely by the battery. If the car battery is low on charge, the lights will dim, helping to avoid a dead battery the next day. 2. When replacing the battery: It is recommended to choose a high-quality battery to avoid purchasing inferior ones. Regularly clean the dust and oxides on the battery surface during use. 3. Develop good driving habits: Turn off the headlights, air conditioning, and other electrical devices before parking. Wait a few minutes after starting the vehicle before using the air conditioning or other electrical appliances to reduce the instantaneous load on the battery and extend its lifespan. Forgetting to turn off the headlights after parking at night can easily lead to battery drain, so drivers should be cautious. 4. Drive the car occasionally if it is not used frequently: This allows the battery to recharge and prevents drain due to prolonged inactivity.

What are the disadvantages of an engine guard?

Installing an engine guard has the advantage of effectively preventing damage to the engine and its components caused by undercarriage scraping, and it also provides some protection for parts that are prone to corrosion. The downside is that it can interfere with the engine's ability to drop in a collision, increasing the risk of injury to vehicle occupants. Whether a new car should have an engine guard installed depends on specific circumstances, as outlined below: 1. Urban or daily commuting use: If you drive a sedan or urban SUV and frequently travel on city roads, mainly for daily commuting and work trips, there is no need to install an engine guard. The primary function of an engine guard is to protect the engine, oil pan, and transmission components from damage due to undercarriage impacts. During normal city driving, undercarriage scraping is highly unlikely. For sedans with lower ground clearance, the most common issue might be scraping the underside of the front bumper when going up or down slopes, but this is not a major concern. 2. Mountainous areas, road trips, or off-road use: If you frequently use your vehicle for road trips or off-road adventures, installing an engine guard is recommended. On many rough, unpaved roads, potholes and uneven surfaces can easily damage the oil pan under the engine. If the oil pan is punctured, all the engine oil will leak out, and continuing to drive without immediate replacement can cause severe engine damage.
