It is normal for a new car to have 80 kilometers on the odometer at delivery. The reasons are as follows: Normal reasons: Generally, up to 100 kilometers is considered normal because new cars need to undergo various tests, and each vehicle requires a road test. Therefore, new cars typically have several dozen kilometers on the odometer, with most falling between 20 to 50 kilometers. Precautions: Visually inspect the car's paint surface for scratches, spots, dents, or wear. Check for color differences under sufficient sunlight by opening the doors and examining the body panels from different angles to ensure they are smooth and free of repair marks.

Will an Automatic Car Move When the Brake is Released?

An automatic car may or may not move when the brake is released, depending on the actual situation. Whether an automatic car moves after releasing the brake depends on the gear position. Normally, if the gear is in D (Drive), R (Reverse), or L (Low), the car will move when the brake is released. However, even in these gears, there are a few special cases where the car won't move: 1. The car is on a very steep slope; 2. Some car models have transmissions designed not to move without pressing the accelerator. Introduction to the gears in an automatic car: 1. P (Park) is used when parking; 2. R (Reverse) is used for reversing; 3. N (Neutral) is used when starting the engine; 4. D (Drive) is used for normal driving; 5. L (Low) is mainly used for climbing or descending hills; 6. S (Second) operates similarly to 2nd gear, shifting only between 1st and 2nd gears.

How to Determine the Number of Cylinders in a Car?

Methods to determine the number of cylinders in a car: 1. Based on displacement: If the car's displacement is below 1L, it typically has 3 cylinders; 2L and 3L usually have 6 cylinders; 4L generally has 8 cylinders; and above 5L usually has 12 cylinders. 2. Based on spark plugs: The number of spark plugs usually corresponds to the number of cylinders. 3. Based on ignition coils: This method is similar to checking spark plugs, where the number of ignition coils indicates the number of cylinders. 4. Based on cylinder wires or their count: This method is only suitable for older vehicles like trucks, as modern cars' internal structures are usually not visible. 5. Based on fuel injectors: Simply count the number of fuel injectors to determine the number of cylinders.

How Long Can Tires Be Considered as Stock Tires?

Tires older than one year are considered stock tires, and tires that have been in storage for three years are expired. The rubber of these tires has already aged, leading to a significant decrease in comfort, increased susceptibility to cracking, and reduced heat dissipation. Whether accelerating or braking, these tires have a substantial impact. They are also highly prone to blowouts at high speeds, seriously endangering the safety of the vehicle owner's life and property. Purchasing such tires is strictly prohibited. Situations requiring tire replacement: 1. Tires with cracks; 2. Tires that have been repaired more than three times; 3. Tires with severe sidewall scratches; 4. Severe wear on the tire shoulder or sidewall; 5. Deformed tread or damaged rim; 6. Severe aging and peeling; 7. Tread pattern below the wear indicator; 8. Bulging tires.

What are the solutions for EA888 engine oil burning?

Oil burning in the EA888 engine can be resolved by cleaning the engine. Consequences of oil burning: It causes incomplete combustion of gases in the engine's combustion chamber, leading to increased carbon deposits, reduced vehicle power performance, and sluggish acceleration. It also results in higher fuel consumption, more severe exhaust emissions pollution, even exceeding standards, and increased financial burden on the car owner. Solutions for oil burning: It is necessary to inspect the entire oil lubrication system, remove accumulated carbon deposits from combustion, ensure the smooth operation of intake and exhaust valves, replace aged or damaged valve stem seals and crankshaft seals, and finally reduce the gaps between the engine cylinder walls to maintain optimal engine temperature.
