If driving on regular roads, a major maintenance is not required at 30,000 kilometers. The third maintenance is essentially a routine service, which includes changing the engine oil and oil filter. As for the air filter and cabin air filter, it depends on the specific situation—if there are no odors, they can be taken out, cleaned, and reused. Other replacement parts are entirely unnecessary. However, if the vehicle frequently operates in poor road conditions, a major maintenance with various cleanings should be considered. Below is an introduction to car maintenance: 1. Introduction to car maintenance: Car maintenance refers to the preventive work of regularly inspecting, cleaning, replenishing, lubricating, adjusting, or replacing certain parts of a vehicle, also known as vehicle servicing. 2. Scope of car maintenance: Modern car maintenance primarily includes the engine system, transmission system, air conditioning system, cooling system, fuel system, power steering system, and more. 3. Purpose of car maintenance: The goal of car maintenance is to keep the vehicle clean, maintain normal technical conditions, eliminate potential issues, prevent malfunctions, slow down deterioration, and extend the vehicle's lifespan.

I just hit the 30,000-kilometer mark on my car last month and went for a major service. The manual recommended a comprehensive check-up, including an oil change, oil filter replacement, air filter replacement, and fuel filter replacement, along with spark plug and brake system inspections. After the service, I noticed the car runs smoother, starts up quicker, and even saw a slight drop in fuel consumption. Since I often drive in congested city traffic, dust buildup causes the filters to get dirty fast, and not replacing them in time can harm the engine health. Although the cost of a few hundred bucks isn’t exactly cheap, it’s worth it in the long run to avoid minor issues turning into major repairs. Remember to consult your 4S shop or service center for maintenance tailored to your car model—don’t slack off, because regular upkeep is what keeps your car running well for years.

What Happens If Traffic Violation Points and Fines Are Not Handled Within a Month?

The consequences of not handling traffic violation points and fines within a month are as follows: 1. On-site enforcement: Usually, the fine should be paid promptly, with a deadline typically set at 15 days. Therefore, the vehicle owner must pay the fine in full within 15 days through methods such as banks, online payment, or postal agency points. If the fine is not paid within 15 days, a late fee of 3% of the fine amount will be charged daily. 2. Electronic enforcement (e.g., traffic cameras): The violation needs to be confirmed and the fine paid. The violation can be confirmed online or at the vehicle management office. Once confirmed, the fine must be paid in full within 15 days. However, if the violation is not confirmed, there is no issue even if more than 30 days pass, as long as it is handled before the annual vehicle inspection. Therefore, electronic violations do not need to be processed within 30 days.

Why does Volkswagen require 95-octane gasoline?

Volkswagen requires 95-octane gasoline for the following reasons: 1. Volkswagen vehicles use 95-octane gasoline because most of its models are equipped with turbocharged engines. During high-speed driving, the turbocharger operates more powerfully, which imposes strict requirements on gasoline. 95-octane gasoline has better anti-knock properties compared to 92-octane gasoline. If German cars use 92-octane gasoline for an extended period, it can lead to engine knocking, which is very dangerous. 2. The difference in gasoline grades lies in the octane rating of the additives (octane rating affects anti-knock performance). The higher the gasoline grade, the higher the octane rating, and the better the anti-knock performance, making it more suitable for high-compression engines. However, this is not absolute, as it also depends on the manufacturer's technology, tuning, and the engine's inherent characteristics.

Where is the cabin air filter located in the Chevrolet Orlando?

The cabin air filter in the Chevrolet Orlando is located behind the glove compartment on the passenger side. Here is some relevant information about the cabin air filter: 1. When a car is running with the air conditioning on, it draws in outside air into the cabin. However, the air contains various particles such as dust, pollen, soot, abrasive particles, ozone, odors, nitrogen oxides, sulfur dioxide, carbon dioxide, benzene, etc. Without the cabin air filter, these particles would enter the cabin, not only contaminating the car's air conditioning system and reducing the performance of the cooling system but also causing allergic reactions, lung damage, and irritation from ozone exposure, as well as the impact of odors, all of which affect driving safety. 2. There are two types of cabin air filters: one without activated carbon and another with activated carbon. The cabin air filter with activated carbon not only has the above functions but also absorbs a large amount of odors and other effects. The general replacement cycle for the cabin air filter is every 12,000 kilometers.

What model of tires should be replaced for the Fista?

Modern Fista's original tires are from the brands Nexen and Maxxis, with tire sizes varying by configuration: 205/55-R16, 225/45-R17, and 225/40-R18. The tire replacement cycle for the Modern Fista is 60,000 to 120,000 kilometers. Tires older than 6 years must be inspected by qualified technicians, even if they have been rarely used, never used, or show no obvious damage. The method for replacing tires on the Modern Fista is as follows: 1. First, unscrew all the tire nuts. The nuts should be removed in a diagonal order to avoid damaging the wheel hub. 2. Place the jack directly under the support point, then slowly adjust the jack to raise the chassis. Once the tire is off the ground, it can be removed. 3. Place the new tire and manually secure the nuts. Do not tighten the nuts too forcefully to avoid stripping the threads. The nuts should be fully tightened once the wheel is in contact with the ground.
