Changing the air conditioning filter for the Volkswagen Bora is really simple, and I managed to do it myself at home. It's usually located behind the glove compartment on the passenger side. First, empty the glove compartment, then press firmly inward on the retaining clips on both sides of the glove compartment, and it will easily drop down. After that, you'll see a rectangular filter cover plate. Use your hand or a small wrench to unscrew the fixing screws or simply pry open the clips. Remove the old filter, remembering the direction of the arrow, which indicates the airflow toward the interior of the car. Purchase a dedicated model of the filter for the Volkswagen Bora, and choose one with activated carbon for better air purification. After aligning the direction and inserting the new filter, just restore the cover plate and glove compartment. The whole process takes only about ten minutes, and no tools are basically needed. Even beginners can give it a try, saving hundreds in labor costs while improving the air quality inside the car. Remember to check and replace it every 10,000 kilometers driven.

What are the new regulations for annual inspection of passenger cars in 2020?

Here are the new regulations for annual inspection of passenger cars in 2020: 1. Expanded exemption scope for private cars and optimized inspection cycle: On the basis of exempting non-operational mini and micro passenger vehicles with 6 seats or less within 6 years from inspection, non-operational mini and micro passenger vehicles with 7 to 9 seats within 6 years are now included in the exemption scope. For non-operational mini and micro passenger vehicles over 6 years but less than 10 years old, the inspection frequency is adjusted from once a year to once every two years. Please note that the following three types of vehicles are not eligible for the exemption policy: minivans, vehicles that have been illegally modified and penalized according to law, and vehicles involved in traffic accidents causing casualties. Additionally, vehicles that have not been registered for more than 4 years since the date of manufacture are not eligible for the 6-year exemption policy. 2. Electronic inspection labels: Starting from March 1, 2020, 16 cities including Beijing, Tianjin, Shanghai, Chongqing, Harbin, Nanjing, Hangzhou, Ningbo, Jinan, Zhuzhou, Shenzhen, Haikou, Chengdu, Guiyang, Yuxi, and Urumqi became the first batch of pilot cities for electronic inspection labels of motor vehicles. The electronic inspection label has the same effect as the paper label. Vehicles that have obtained the electronic inspection label do not need to display the paper label, and traffic authorities will not penalize vehicles for not displaying (or affixing) the inspection label. The electronic inspection label can be downloaded and saved on mobile phones for offline presentation when needed. 3. Annual inspection can be postponed due to the impact of COVID-19: During the epidemic prevention and control period, if motor vehicles are required to undergo safety technical inspections according to regulations, the inspections will be uniformly postponed based on the epidemic prevention and control situation.

Which mode of Changan Eado Plus is the most fuel-efficient?

Changan Eado Plus is already quite fuel-efficient in its normal mode, as this car inherently has strong power, resulting in a relatively high economic speed. Deliberately switching modes may introduce other issues. Below is an introduction to the Changan Eado Plus: 1. Exterior design. The front face features added headlight strips and modifications to the front grille. Firstly, the addition of headlight strips, a design already seen on the CS75 Plus, significantly enhances front-end recognition. Secondly, the front grille has also been redesigned, officially referred to as the "Whale Star Sea," which appears more sporty and stylish compared to the older horizontal chrome grille. 2. Interior design. It adopts the new flat-bottom steering wheel design previously seen in the UNI premium series, with a thick rim. The grip is more comfortable than that of the 2020 Eado Plus, with the left side integrating some active driving technology configurations, while the right side retains multimedia control buttons. The dual 10.25-inch connected screens provide a strong sense of technology, with the left side being a full LCD instrument panel and the right side a multifunctional central control touchscreen.

What is the reason for the inability to eliminate excessively high airbag resistance?

The reasons for being unable to eliminate excessively high airbag resistance are: 1. Poor wiring harness connection causing a short circuit; 2. External power source interference with the airbag controller. Generally, if excessively high airbag resistance is displayed, the computer will perform an airbag system fault detection in case of a fault and proceed with repairs based on the fault. If it is not a fault, 1. Check the airbag connector or airbag coil to see if poor connection at these positions is causing the short circuit; 2. External power source interference with the airbag controller or the vehicle's airbag squib has already been triggered. This situation is more troublesome, and it is recommended to go to a professional auto repair shop for maintenance and inspection.

What is the reason for the noise in the Cruze engine?

To determine the cause of the noise in the Cruze engine, it is necessary to identify the specific type of sound. Abnormal noises often occur during acceleration, which may be caused by internal engine wear or poor-quality gasoline. A thorough inspection is required to pinpoint the exact issue. An engine is a machine that converts other forms of energy into mechanical energy. It originated in the UK and can refer to either a power-generating device or the entire machine, including the power unit. The Cruze is a model under Shanghai GM Chevrolet, with body dimensions of 4666mm in length, 1807mm in width, and 1460mm in height, and a wheelbase of 2700mm. In terms of appearance, the Cruze inherits the family-style large-mouth grille. The angular headlights on the robust front end appear very bold, and the highly defined lines of the engine hood, combined with the integrated bumper and slightly exaggerated design, give the Cruze a passionate and youthful look.
