You can purchase windshield repair fluid online and fix it yourself. Here is some relevant information about car windshields: Precautions: The windshield must be replaced correctly. To prevent air and water leaks, avoid washing the car for three days, and remove the tape securing the windshield position after three days. Drive smoothly and avoid sudden braking and rapid acceleration. Function: The reflection of passengers inside the car through the front windshield appears above the front of the car, while pedestrians on the road are in front of the car, allowing the driver to distinguish between passengers inside the car and pedestrians on the road. If the car's windshield is placed vertically, like a large flat mirror, it will reflect the passengers inside the car in front of the vehicle, obstructing the driver's view of pedestrians on the road and potentially causing illusions.

What is the oil specification for Changan CS55?

Changan CS55 uses original equipment manufacturer (OEM) oil produced by Great Wall with specifications of 5W40 full synthetic oil or 0W40 full synthetic oil. For later maintenance and oil changes, you can choose Shell HX7-5W-40 synthetic oil, OEM Castrol Magnetec 5W-30, or Mobil full synthetic oil. According to the official maintenance manual, it is recommended to use 5W-40 full synthetic oil. The viscosity of engine oil changes with temperature, so special attention should be paid to its performance under low and high temperatures. For example, in 5W-30, the first number indicates low-temperature fluidity, where 5W means it can withstand temperatures as low as -30°C. The smaller this number, the better the low-temperature fluidity, resulting in smoother cold starts for the car. The second number represents the kinematic viscosity of the oil at 100°C. A higher value means the oil can maintain its viscosity index better at high temperatures, which can also be understood as better lubrication performance under high-temperature conditions. The method for changing the engine oil in a Changan CS55 is as follows: Wait for the engine temperature to drop and allow the oil to flow back into the oil pan; Use a wrench to loosen the oil drain plug and place an oil pan to catch the old oil until it stops flowing. Start the engine for 30 seconds to allow the oil in the main oil passage to drain; Use a special wrench to remove the oil filter; Apply oil to the oil seal of the new oil filter and tighten it clockwise by hand; Add new oil through the engine valve cover filler port, usually filling about three-quarters of the oil container; Start the engine and let it run for 5 minutes, then check for any oil leaks around the drain plug and oil filter. If there are leaks, perform necessary repairs; After stopping the engine, pull out the oil dipstick and check that the engine oil level is within the standard range.

What does the exclamation mark and P on the dashboard mean?

When an exclamation mark appears on the car dashboard, there are five possible scenarios: general malfunction, automatic transmission failure, brake system failure, abnormal tire pressure, and lighting malfunction. Below is a detailed analysis of these five situations: General malfunction: A triangle with an exclamation mark inside indicates a malfunction in the car's general performance, components, or functions. Common issues include parking sensor failure, fuel cutoff system intervention or malfunction, external light failure, or engine oil pressure sensor malfunction. It is necessary to visit a 4S shop for inspection to identify the source of the fault. Automatic transmission failure: A yellow gear with an exclamation mark inside is the automatic transmission failure warning light, indicating a problem with the transmission or that the transmission lubricant is below the normal range. The transmission oil should be replaced promptly. Brake system failure: An exclamation mark inside a circle with parentheses represents a brake system warning, typically indicating a brake system malfunction or low brake fluid level. Immediate inspection and repair of the brake system are required to avoid accidents. Abnormal tire pressure: An exclamation mark with a horizontal line below the parentheses is the tire pressure monitoring warning light, which illuminates when the car's tire pressure is too low. Check the tire pressure and restore it to the normal range. Lighting malfunction: A yellow bulb with an exclamation mark is the lighting malfunction indicator, signaling that a car light has failed. Solution: Visit a 4S shop for inspection as soon as possible, or conduct a self-check focusing on commonly used bulbs such as turn signals, fog lights, and interior lights to identify the issue.
