The other day, I was chatting with friends about Lynk & Co. It's actually a joint venture car brand, jointly created by China's Geely Auto and Sweden's Volvo. When it debuted in 2016, I noticed it combined the strengths of both Chinese and foreign elements: the design has a touch of Nordic minimalism, but production and R&D are mainly based in China. I've personally driven the Lynk & Co 01—it offers stable handling, and the powertrain utilizes Volvo's technology, making it more comfortable to drive than purely domestic cars. Regular maintenance isn't expensive, and parts are easy to find. As a car enthusiast, I think it represents the trend of joint ventures, catering to the fashion needs of younger groups while maintaining reliable performance. However, the price is mid-range to slightly premium, and some car enthusiasts complain about slightly higher fuel consumption. Overall, it's worth recommending for a test drive.

How Many Years Until a Pickup Truck is Scrapped?

Pickup trucks are scrapped when they reach 15 years of service or accumulate 600,000 kilometers in mileage. Pickups are classified as light-duty trucks. However, some pickups with a covered cargo bed (i.e., those with a rear cover added) are categorized as multi-purpose passenger vehicles, allowing them to enjoy the same treatment as passenger cars and no longer be subject to mandatory scrapping timelines. Vehicle scrapping conditions include: 1. Severe vehicle damage or irreparable safety performance issues; 2. Obsolete models with no available spare parts; 3. Vehicles that are excessively aged and consume more than 15% of the fuel specified at the time of manufacture; 4. Vehicles that fail to meet safety standards despite multiple repairs and adjustments; 5. Vehicles that do not meet exhaust emission standards.

Should You Use Recirculation or Fresh Air Mode When Running Car AC?

Whether to use recirculation or fresh air mode when running car AC depends on specific situations. Generally, recirculation mode is preferred in heavy traffic, while fresh air mode is recommended during highway driving. When fresh air mode is activated, the blower draws outside air into the cabin, which benefits passengers' health. In recirculation mode, the blower doesn't bring in outside air. For faster cooling or heating, start with recirculation mode to quickly adjust cabin temperature, then switch to fresh air mode for ventilation once temperature stabilizes. A car AC system mainly consists of compressor, electromagnetic clutch, condenser, evaporator, expansion valve, receiver-drier, piping, condenser fan, vacuum solenoid valve, idle speed controller, and control system.

What are the symptoms of a stuck throttle valve?

Here are detailed introductions about the symptoms of throttle valve malfunction: a. Unstable engine idle speed, persistently high idle speed that does not decrease, difficulty in starting the engine, especially cold starts. b. Unstable engine idle speed or no idle at all. c. Difficulty in starting the engine. d. Insufficient engine power, poor acceleration performance, and unstable operation. Here are the introductions about troubleshooting methods: a. Use a fault diagnostic tool to perform a throttle valve check, observe the data stream, and clean the throttle valve if the opening is too large.

Throttle valves are usually not repairable and should be replaced as an assembly.

How to Check a Car's Production Date?

Methods to check a car's production date: You can find the production date through the vehicle identification plate, VIN number, or the car's user manual. The vehicle identification plate is located in the engine compartment, while the VIN number can be found at the lower left corner of the windshield, on the hinge pillar, door lock post, or edge of the driver's side door, and sometimes in the engine compartment. The vehicle identification plate is a tag that indicates the basic characteristics of the vehicle, including the vehicle model, engine model, engine displacement, engine rated power, vehicle identification number, gross weight, load capacity or passenger capacity, manufacturing serial number, production month and year, country of manufacture, and manufacturer name.

What Causes the Hissing Sound During Acceleration in a Turbocharged Car?

Turbocharged cars producing a hissing sound during acceleration typically indicate either a damaged turbocharger wastegate or an intake pipe leak. The specific causes of the air leak are as follows: Damaged Wastegate: This leads to insufficient power output, causing poor engine performance. Both acceleration and deceleration will feel jerky, the exhaust may emit white or blue smoke, fuel consumption increases, and turbo pressure becomes unstable. Intake Pipe Leak: An air leak in the intake system results in reduced engine power. When pressing the accelerator pedal, a distinct airflow noise can be heard from the engine compartment. If an intake pipe leak is detected, immediate replacement is necessary as it will otherwise affect normal engine operation.
