The method to reset the maintenance light on a Diesel Fengjun 5: When the vehicle is not started, press and hold the mileage reset button, do not release it, then start the engine. Wait until the maintenance indicator light disappears before releasing the button. Alternatively, after completing the maintenance, you can ask the staff to use a computer to set it. The Fengjun 5 offers two cargo compartment sizes to choose from: small double and large double. The small double model's cargo compartment dimensions are 1380mm, 1460mm, and 480mm, while the large double model's cargo compartment dimensions are 1680mm, 1460mm, and 480mm. In terms of appearance, the body is relatively simple, with the door handles aligned in a straight line with the rear. The side skirts above the tires are raised, and the rear design is simple, featuring a vertical row of three taillights, with two additional independent taillights below.

As a veteran driver who has owned a Fengjun 5 for several years, let me share the steps to reset the maintenance light. First, park the vehicle on level ground, turn off the engine, and ensure the key is in the OFF position. Then locate the instrument panel below the steering wheel, which usually has a small button labeled TRIP or RESET. Press and hold this button without releasing it, then turn the key to the ON position (where all lights illuminate but don't start the engine). Keep holding the button for about 5 to 10 seconds until you see the maintenance light on the dashboard start flashing and then turn off. Finally, release the button and turn off the ignition to complete the process. The whole procedure takes less than half a minute and is quite simple.

Why reset it? This light serves as a reminder for upcoming maintenance tasks like oil or filter changes. If not reset, it might mislead you into delaying critical maintenance. I always reset it after minor servicing for peace of mind and to prevent major engine issues. Remember to regularly check your vehicle's condition - while trucks like the Fengjun 5 are durable, diesel engines require extra attention.

I've been driving my diesel-powered Great Wall Wingle 5 for a while now, and I've tried resetting the maintenance reminder light a few times - it's super easy! Here's the exact procedure: First, make sure the vehicle is stationary with the ignition off and all dashboard lights extinguished. Locate the reset button (that small black dot) on the left side of the instrument cluster and press it firmly with your finger. Then turn the key to the ACC position (don't start the engine) while maintaining pressure on the button. After holding for about five seconds, the maintenance light will blink several times and disappear - that's when you can release the button and turn off the ignition. Done! The whole process takes less than ten seconds. I've noticed that if you don't reset it, the light stays annoyingly illuminated and makes it easy to forget scheduled maintenance. The Wingle 5 typically has a 5,000 km service interval, and resetting helps you keep track. I recommend doing this immediately after an oil change - wiping the button with a cloth for better grip makes it easier. Always pay attention to dashboard indicators when driving, and don't neglect these small but important details just to save effort.

Hey, I'm a Fengjun 5 owner, and resetting the maintenance light is a piece of cake. Just three steps: Turn off the ignition, locate and hold the reset button on the dashboard, then turn the key to the ON position without starting the engine. Wait about 5-6 seconds until the light goes off, release the button, and turn off the key. Easy, right! I asked mechanics before, and they taught the same method. The Fengjun 5's maintenance light is thoughtfully designed—after resetting, it reminds you of the next service time, so never skip it lazily. Gotta take good care of your ride regularly.

I've been driving the Great Wall Wingle 5 diesel version for many years, and resetting the maintenance light is something you've got to do right. Here's how: First, park the car safely and turn off the ignition. Then, press and hold the TRIP button on the dashboard without releasing it. Next, turn the key to the ON position to power up the system without starting the engine. Keep holding the button for about 7 to 8 seconds until you see the maintenance light go off, then release the button and turn off the key. The whole process takes less than ten seconds, but make sure you don't make any mistakes. If you don't reset it, the light staying on might make you overlook real issues, like low engine oil leading to engine wear, which would be disastrous. I always reset it after every maintenance—it's like a little alarm reminding you to take good care of your truck. The Wingle 5 is tough, but it still needs regular maintenance.

Do You Need to Press the Accelerator When Reversing in an Automatic Transmission Car?

When reversing in an automatic transmission car, you generally do not need to press the accelerator. Simply shift into the R (Reverse) gear and release the brake, and the car will move backward automatically. However, in certain situations such as when on a slope or when the wheels are on a speed bump, the idle power of the engine may not be sufficient to overcome the resistance. In such cases, you may need to lightly press the accelerator to assist in reversing. An automatic transmission eliminates the need for the driver to manually shift gears, as the vehicle automatically selects the appropriate gear based on speed and traffic conditions. Typically, automatic transmission cars have six gear positions, arranged from top to bottom as: P (Park), R (Reverse), N (Neutral), D (Drive), S (Sport), and L (Low).

Where is the tire pressure reset button on the Great Wall Pao?

The tire pressure reset button for the Great Wall Pao is the SET button on the central dashboard. Tire pressure reset is an operation performed on the tire pressure monitoring system to reset it after addressing a tire pressure fault. There are generally three reasons for abnormal tire pressure: Abnormal tire pressure: The system typically alerts when the pressure is below 1.8 bar or above 3.0 bar. In such cases, tire inspection and pressure adjustment are required. Failure to reset the tire pressure monitoring: After inflating the tires, if the tire pressure is not reset promptly, the monitoring system will retain the previous data, causing the tire pressure warning light to illuminate. Simply performing a tire pressure reset will resolve this issue. Damaged tire pressure sensor: The tire pressure sensor, which monitors tire pressure, is installed inside the tire and connected to the tire inflation valve. If the sensor is damaged due to impact while driving, it can trigger the tire pressure warning light. In case of sensor damage, the only solution is to replace it with a new component.

Can Green and Red Antifreeze Be Mixed?

Whether green and red antifreeze can be mixed depends on the brand and composition of the antifreeze. Antifreeze of different brands or compositions should not be mixed. This is because the production formulas of antifreeze from different brands may vary, and mixing them could lead to chemical reactions between various additives, rendering them ineffective. Antifreeze is a type of coolant containing special additives, primarily used in liquid-cooled engine cooling systems. It offers excellent performance in preventing freezing in winter, boiling in summer, and resisting scale and corrosion year-round. It also prevents the coolant from freezing and expanding in cold winters, which could otherwise crack the radiator or damage the engine cylinder block or head. The main components of antifreeze are: 50% pure water, 40% methanol, and 10% other substances. It is generally categorized into three types: ethanol-water, glycerol-water, and ethylene glycol-water.

Is Braking Distance the Same as Stopping Distance?

Braking distance is indeed stopping distance, so the faster the vehicle speed, the longer the braking distance (stopping distance). Braking distance is one of the key parameters to measure a vehicle's braking performance, consisting of two parts: reaction distance and braking distance. Below are the relevant explanations: Reaction Distance: The distance traveled by the vehicle from the moment the driver notices a situation and intends to stop until the brake pedal is pressed and braking action begins is called reaction distance. Reaction distance depends on the driver's level of concentration, technical proficiency, and the vehicle's speed. Higher concentration and better technical skills result in a shorter reaction distance, while the opposite leads to a longer reaction distance; the faster the vehicle speed, the longer the reaction distance, and vice versa. Braking Distance: The distance traveled by the vehicle from the moment the driver presses the brake pedal and braking action begins until the vehicle comes to a complete stop is called braking distance. The length of the braking distance is related to the vehicle's speed, braking force, coefficient of friction, etc. The faster the speed, the longer the braking distance—for example, doubling the speed increases the braking distance by four times. The greater the braking force, the shorter the braking distance, and vice versa.

Why is there a hump in the middle of the back row in some cars?

Some cars have a hump in the middle of the back row because: for the flatness of the chassis, as the car's underbody is equipped with an exhaust pipe or drive shaft, usually rear-wheel-drive cars must transmit the engine's power to the rear wheels through the drive shaft, so structurally, such a hump is necessary. The hump between the front and rear seats from front to back is a structural design intended to enhance the longitudinal rigidity of the cabin, while also providing space for the exhaust pipe to run backward without affecting the chassis's ground clearance. If the chassis were a flat steel plate, it would easily "fold" upon impact. However, if the chassis is designed with a semi-circular hump, its ability to withstand impact can be many times stronger than a flat steel plate, and it is less prone to deformation. This is similar to adding a steel beam to the chassis.
