The engine of Toyota's Avalon is produced by Tianjin FAW Toyota Engine Co., Ltd., which is a domestically manufactured engine. The 2.0L version of Toyota's Avalon has an engine model M20A, with a maximum power of 131kw, maximum horsepower of 178hp, and peak torque of 210Nm. The 2.5L version has an engine model A25A, with a maximum power of 154kw, maximum horsepower of 209hp, and peak torque of 250Nm. For daily maintenance of Toyota's Avalon engine, the following methods can be used: Use lubricating oil of appropriate quality grade. For gasoline engines, SD--SF grade gasoline engine oil should be selected based on the additional devices of the intake and exhaust system and usage conditions; for diesel engines, CB--CD grade diesel engine oil should be selected according to mechanical load, with the selection standard not lower than the manufacturer's requirements. Regularly change the engine oil and filter. The quality of any grade of lubricating oil will change during use. After a certain mileage, the performance deteriorates, which can cause various problems for the engine. To avoid malfunctions, change the oil regularly according to usage conditions and maintain an appropriate oil level. When engine oil passes through the fine holes of the filter, solid particles and viscous substances in the oil accumulate in the filter. If the filter is clogged and the oil cannot pass through the filter element, it may rupture the filter element or open the safety valve, allowing oil to bypass through the bypass valve and carry contaminants back to the lubrication areas, accelerating engine wear and increasing internal pollution. Regularly clean the crankcase. During engine operation, high-pressure unburned gases, acids, moisture, sulfur, and nitrogen oxides from the combustion chamber enter the crankcase through the gap between the piston rings and cylinder walls, mixing with metal particles from component wear to form sludge. A small amount remains suspended in the oil, while a large amount precipitates, clogging filters and oil passages, making engine lubrication difficult and causing wear. Regularly use radiator cleaner to clean the radiator. Removing rust and scale not only ensures the engine operates normally but also extends the overall lifespan of the radiator and engine.

Is it necessary to cover a new car with a car cover when parked outdoors?

The new car parked outdoors needs to be covered with a car cover. Here are the relevant introductions about car covers: 1. The function of the car cover: The main function of the car cover is to prevent dust, sun exposure, rain, corrosion, etc. The car cover has a good protective effect on the car. The car cover can effectively prevent bad weather from corroding the car paint. Another function is to prevent others from scratching the car paint. 2. Precautions: When covering the car with a car cover, it is best to wait until the vehicle has completely cooled down before proceeding. Because after the vehicle is turned off after driving, the temperature of the vehicle cannot drop instantly. After covering the car with the car cover, the local temperature of the car cover rises, causing the humidity to increase, and there will be no air flow inside the car cover.

Can LED headlights pass the annual vehicle inspection?

According to the new regulations issued by the Ministry of Public Security in 2019, China strictly prohibits the modification of lighting groups. However, as long as the shape and brightness are not excessively altered, they can still pass the annual inspection. Here are the key requirements to follow: 1. Brightness requirement: The brightness should generally be high enough but not too glaring. 2. Height requirement: The lights should not be positioned too high or too low. 3. Color temperature requirement: The light detector can only measure color temperatures up to 6500K; anything higher will not be detected and will fail the inspection. 4. Modification requirement: Installing xenon or LED headlights must include dual-beam lenses to be considered legal.

What does invalid exhaust emission test mean?

Invalid exhaust emission test refers to the mandatory test during the annual vehicle inspection. If the exhaust emission indicators fail to meet the standards, it is considered an invalid test. Vehicle owners should take this seriously and address the issue promptly. If the vehicle fails the retest for excessive emissions (non-compliance), penalties will be imposed. Introduction to vehicle inspection tips: Clean the throttle once before the inspection; Use 97-octane gasoline in advance. Higher-grade gasoline produces less pollution. If ethanol-blended gasoline is available, it is even better, as it contains 10% ethanol, which can reduce exhaust emissions by 10%; On the way to the inspection station, increase the engine speed. Due to urban traffic congestion, frequent stops and starts lead to incomplete combustion, resulting in pollutants adhering to the surface of the catalytic converter. Higher engine speeds produce the lowest emissions, and the high-speed airflow can also flush away deposits on the catalytic converter; After the exterior inspection, rev the engine hard. Taking a cold vehicle for the inspection is unwise. The reason is simple: the optimal working temperature of the catalytic converter is between 400 to 800 degrees Celsius, and it takes a long time for a cold engine to reach 400 degrees. Revving the engine for a few minutes before the inspection can quickly raise the catalytic converter's temperature above 400 degrees and maintain it for a while; If you suspect your vehicle has issues, you can remove the air filter or spray a small amount of water on it; Replace the catalytic converter if it is severely aged or ineffective. If the catalytic converter is poisoned, purchase a catalytic converter cleaner from the auto parts market and perform a cleaning maintenance on the engine. After maintenance, the exhaust emissions should pass the annual inspection. Notes: If a vehicle fails a random exhaust emission test, the traffic police will temporarily confiscate the vehicle's registration certificate. The owner must carry out repairs and rectifications within 7 days and can only retrieve the registration certificate upon presenting a retest pass certificate. No additional fees are required for the retest. Article 90: If a motor vehicle driver violates the road traffic safety laws or regulations regarding road traffic rules, a warning or a fine ranging from 20 to 200 yuan shall be imposed. If other provisions of this law stipulate otherwise, those provisions shall prevail. Article 95: If a motor vehicle driven on the road does not display a license plate, inspection compliance label, insurance label, or if the driver fails to carry the vehicle registration certificate or driving license, the traffic management department of the public security organ shall detain the vehicle, notify the party to provide the corresponding documents or labels or complete the necessary procedures, and may impose penalties in accordance with Article 90 of this law.

How to Coordinate the Clutch and Brake Pedals?

The coordination method between the clutch and brake pedals varies depending on different situations: 1. When starting the car: First press the brake, then the clutch, shift into first gear, gently release the clutch until the car body shakes, then release the brake and clutch. 2. When shifting gears to accelerate: Only press the clutch, no need to press the brake. 3. When stopping the car: First press the clutch, then the brake. The clutch is located inside the flywheel housing between the engine and the transmission. It is the assembly component in the car's drivetrain that directly connects to the engine. The clutch assembly is fixed to the rear plane of the flywheel with screws, and the output shaft of the clutch is the input shaft of the transmission. The brake is located below the steering wheel, close to the car's chassis. Its working principle is to use the friction between the brake pads and the brake disc, as well as between the tires and the ground, to create significant friction, converting the kinetic energy of the moving vehicle into heat energy after friction, and stopping the rotating parts through friction.

Are Newer Tire Dates Always Better?

No. Tires reach their optimal performance when installed after being stored for 8 to 12 months post-production. During this period, internal chemical reactions complete, the structure solidifies, and the tire achieves peak strength, wear resistance, and overall performance. Extended Information: 1. Tire Composition: Tires consist of rubber, fabric plies, steel wires, carbon black, and various additives. These materials undergo vulcanization in a molding press. Freshly manufactured tires contain high oil content, unstable rubber molecules, and incomplete chemical reactions of additives, resulting in suboptimal strength, wear resistance, and performance. Premature installation significantly reduces service life and prevents optimal performance. 2. Tire Lifespan: As rubber degrades over time, tires typically last five years, with a maximum limit of seven years. 3. Replacement Indicators: Inspect tires visually, especially sidewalls, for cracks, damage, bulges, or tread wear beyond safe limits. Immediate replacement is necessary if any such conditions are present.
