After my last maintenance for the 2021 Geely Emgrand, the service light was still on. It took me a while to figure out the reset method. The key is to turn the ignition to the ON position, which means the dashboard lights up but the engine doesn't start—this is usually the second position. Then locate the small TRIP button near the steering wheel (make sure not to press the wrong one), hold it down for about 10 seconds. Watch the service indicator on the dashboard—it will start blinking rapidly a few times before turning off. At this point, release the button, and you're done. Don't forget to perform the maintenance before resetting, otherwise, without the light reminder, you might miss the service window and risk major issues. I tried it myself, and the operation is quite safe—no need to worry about damaging the car. Also, the Emgrand's service light comes on roughly every 5,000 km to remind you to change the oil, etc. After resetting, the counter starts anew. Regular maintenance helps keep the car durable and fuel-efficient.

Why doesn't Changan support CarPlay?

Because CarPlay requires Apple certification, and the vehicle's infotainment system needs to embed Apple chips, which involves considerable difficulty and cost. Additionally, the likelihood of Changan's target users owning Apple phones is relatively lower. Carlife, which supports both Apple and Android devices, can also cover a segment of users. Here is some information about CarPlay: 1. Introduction: CarPlay is an in-car system developed by Apple Inc. in the United States. When used in vehicles, it seamlessly pairs and connects with iOS devices. These devices include smartphones and tablets, and once connected, the phone's interface and functions can be displayed on the central control screen, making it very convenient to use. 2. Implementation Timeline: Apple Inc. announced its entry into the automotive sector in 2013 and officially launched the smart car system in June 2016. This system is exclusively compatible with Apple phones, and other smartphones cannot use it, presenting certain limitations in usage. Several car brands have adopted this system.

What does the S gear in Volkswagen mean?

Volkswagen's S gear stands for Sport mode, which is designed to provide faster acceleration. Below are some tips for using Volkswagen's S gear: 1. Generally, you can shift into S gear when overtaking to enhance acceleration. Engaging S gear can temporarily increase the engine load, but S gear only delays upshifting without altering other operational aspects. This inevitably increases the transmission load in the short term, accompanied by rising temperatures, leading to accelerated wear. Therefore, try to avoid prolonged use of S gear. 2. In terms of fuel consumption, since the fuel injection volume increases at high RPM, the S gear mode consumes more fuel than the normal mode. During vehicle startup, high-speed cruising, and coasting, avoid shifting into S gear in these three scenarios, as it will not yield good results and will only increase fuel consumption unnecessarily. 3. Using S gear also has benefits for the vehicle. Cars that frequently drive in congested urban areas tend to accumulate more carbon deposits in the engine. Therefore, using S gear appropriately at regular intervals helps remove carbon deposits from the engine, improve fuel economy, and extend the engine's lifespan.

How Long Does the Sylphy Engine Last?

The national policy-guided scrappage standard for the Sylphy engine is 600,000 kilometers. The lifespan of the Nissan Sylphy engine depends on the owner's driving habits, whether routine maintenance is properly performed, and the vehicle's operating environment, all of which significantly impact the engine's longevity. Use high-quality engine oil: Engine oil, also known as engine lubricant, serves functions such as lubrication, cleaning, cooling, sealing, and wear reduction for the engine. Only by using qualified lubricating oil can engine component wear be minimized and service life extended. Therefore, it is essential to use high-quality oil and avoid substandard products or allowing the engine to run without oil. Use qualified coolant (antifreeze): In addition to preventing freezing, antifreeze also prevents the radiator from overheating and scale formation. Thus, antifreeze is crucial to the entire cooling system of the car. Like engine oil, antifreeze should not be mixed with other types. Maintain proper fuel levels: When the fuel warning light comes on, the fuel tank is nearly empty, which can stir up sediment and damage the engine. Additionally, avoid mixing different fuel grades, as this can cause engine knocking and damage.

What are the precautions for running in a new car?

When running in a new car, pay attention to preheating before starting; avoid emergency braking; ensure fuel quality; avoid long-distance trips and perform initial maintenance. The reason for preheating before starting is that when the vehicle is turned off, the engine oil inside will slowly flow back into the oil pan. After starting the vehicle, it takes some time for the oil to fully lubricate all parts of the engine. Avoiding emergency braking means prohibiting sudden braking. When emergency braking occurs in a new car, it will subject the braking system to a huge impact, while also increasing the impact load on the chassis and engine. Ensuring fuel quality requires using high-quality gasoline. The oil used in a new car should not be of a lower grade than specified by the manufacturer, and anti-wear additives should not be used to avoid insufficient running-in despite sufficient mileage. Long-distance trips are prohibited during the running-in period of a new car. Long-distance driving causes the engine to operate continuously for extended periods, which can easily lead to increased wear of mechanical parts. Initial maintenance is required for first-time driving. During the running-in period of a new car, frequently check whether the engine oil, coolant, and battery electrolyte are sufficient, and replenish them immediately if any are found to be lacking.

What does the TC light with a slash mean in the Envision?

The TC light with a slash in the Envision is the Traction Control System indicator. Press the button below the gear shift mechanism, then turn off the ignition and restart to reset the system, and the TC light with a slash will turn off. If the warning light remains on or comes back on while driving, repairs are needed. Possible causes for the TC light to illuminate include: solenoid valve failure; dirty oil clogging the solenoid valve filter; wear on the actuator gear and impeller, causing oil pressure leakage and triggering the alarm; dirty throttle with an opening reaching 20%; or the engine computer misjudging a TC fault. The working principle of the Traction Control System is to replace the mechanical connection between the accelerator pedal and the throttle with an electronic throttle control device. Sensors transmit the accelerator pedal information to the ECU, which generates a control voltage signal based on this information. The motor then adjusts the throttle according to the signal, reducing throttle opening and controlling wheel slip. For drivers operating the vehicle in rainy or snowy conditions, this can help reduce occurrences of wheel slip or loss of control.

Is Idling Harmful to a Car?

If a car is left idling for a short period, it will not cause any damage. However, prolonged idling can lead to carbon buildup in the engine, which is a result of incomplete combustion. Therefore, it is recommended not to leave the car idling for extended periods. When a car idles, incomplete combustion occurs in the engine, leading to carbon deposits. These deposits can cause engine knocking, which is an abnormal combustion phenomenon. During the compression stroke of the engine, the piston moves upward, compressing the air-fuel mixture. This increases the pressure and temperature of the mixture. If the mixture ignites spontaneously at this point, it results in knocking. The burning mixture pushes the piston downward while it is moving upward, affecting the engine's power output and fuel efficiency. Due to the low engine speed and reduced air intake efficiency during idling, combustion is inherently incomplete, making it easier for carbon deposits to form. More importantly, these deposits cannot be expelled and accumulate in the cylinders and intake passages, significantly speeding up the carbon buildup process. When carbon deposits reach a certain level, they can reduce the car's performance and, over time, lead to engine wear. During idling, the car does not perform any external work—the engine only overcomes its own internal resistance. Thus, it is advisable to turn off the engine during prolonged waits.
