The Changan CS85 1.5T engine utilizes the Blue Whale engine independently developed by Changan Automobile. The Blue Whale engine is a self-developed engine by Changan, representing domestic technology, thus making it a domestically produced engine. The model of the Changan CS85 1.5T engine is JL476ZQCF. The JL476ZQCF engine delivers a maximum horsepower of 178 HP, a maximum power output of 131 kW at 5500 rpm, and a peak torque of 265 N·m. For daily maintenance of the Changan CS85 1.5T engine, the following methods can be employed: Use lubricating oil of appropriate quality grade. For gasoline engines, select SD--SF grade gasoline engine oil based on the additional devices in the intake and exhaust systems and usage conditions; for diesel engines, choose CB--CD grade diesel engine oil according to mechanical load, with the selection standard not lower than the manufacturer's specified requirements. Regularly replace the engine oil and oil filter. The quality of any grade of lubricating oil will change during use. After a certain mileage, its performance deteriorates, leading to various engine issues. To prevent malfunctions, change the oil regularly based on usage conditions and maintain an appropriate oil level. When engine oil passes through the fine pores of the filter, solid particles and viscous substances in the oil accumulate in the filter. If the filter becomes clogged and 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, carrying contaminants back to the lubrication points, accelerating engine wear and increasing internal contamination. Periodically 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. In small amounts, it remains suspended in the oil; in large amounts, it precipitates, clogging filters and oil passages, making engine lubrication difficult and causing wear. Regularly use a 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 driving to the left front straight or a left turn?

When the car navigation prompts to drive to the left front, it refers to going straight, not making a left turn. The specific road section should also be analyzed accordingly. Here is some relevant information about driving to the left front: 1. Road sections where it appears: The sign for driving to the left front can also appear on sections such as overpasses, ramps, exits from the main road, and Y-shaped intersections. 2. Lane driving: To the left is the left-turn lane, and straight ahead is the straight lane. If it is within the range of the intersection to the left front and the intersection allows this, because you need to cross the center line to the left, you should still use the left-turn lane and enter the intersection when the left-turn signal is green.

What is the difference between cruise control and full-speed adaptive cruise control?

Adaptive cruise control is an upgraded version of cruise control. Cruise control basics: 1. Definition: Cruise control allows the vehicle to maintain a set speed without the driver needing to press the accelerator pedal once the speed is set and activated. 2. Working principle: The cruise control system primarily works by the cruise control module reading pulse signals from the speed sensor and comparing them with the set speed. Through precise electronic calculations, it issues commands to ensure the most accurate fuel supply at the set speed. 3. Classification: It is mainly divided into lever type, steering wheel button type, and steering wheel control group type.

What Causes Gear Shift Jerking?

In manual transmission vehicles, jerking during gear shifts is mostly caused by poor coordination between the clutch and accelerator. Here is relevant information about gear shifting: 1. Upshifting Essentials: The key to smooth upshifting lies in the "acceleration surge" magnitude. The "acceleration surge" distance should be determined by the target gear - higher gears require longer "acceleration surge" distances. During "acceleration surge", maintain steady pressure on the accelerator pedal and release it quickly at medium speed. 2. Downshifting Essentials: Release the accelerator pedal, quickly depress the clutch pedal, shift the gear lever to neutral, then release the clutch pedal. Quickly tap the accelerator pedal once ("rev matching"), immediately depress the clutch pedal again, shift to a lower gear, and release the clutch pedal using the quick-pause-slow technique to continue driving in the new gear.

Should the driver advance medical expenses after hitting a pedestrian?

In the event of a traffic accident, the medical expenses should first be covered by the insurance company within the scope of the claim settlement. If the insurance coverage is insufficient, the at-fault party may be required to bear the remaining costs. If any advance payment has been made, it can be recovered from both the insurance company and the at-fault party. 1. Relevant laws: According to the "Regulations on Compulsory Traffic Accident Liability Insurance for Motor Vehicles": Article 21 stipulates that if a road traffic accident involving the insured motor vehicle causes personal injury, death, or property loss to victims other than the vehicle's occupants or the insured, the insurance company shall compensate within the liability limit of the compulsory traffic accident liability insurance in accordance with the law. If the loss from the road traffic accident is intentionally caused by the victim, the insurance company will not compensate. 2. Situations where the insurance company has the right to seek compensation from the responsible party: (1) The driver does not have a valid driver's license or is driving under the influence of alcohol; (2) The insured motor vehicle is involved in an accident during theft or robbery; (3) The insured intentionally causes a road traffic accident.

What does the bridge approach bump sign mean?

The bridge approach bump sign is mainly used to alert drivers to slow down. Here is some relevant information about the bridge approach bump sign: 1. Sign structure: The bridge approach bump is a warning sign, typically a triangular-shaped board with a yellow background. After seeing the bridge approach bump warning sign, drivers should slow down in advance and try to pass through at a lower speed to protect both the vehicle and the road surface. 2. Bump section: When a vehicle passes through a bridge approach bump section, it may experience jumping and impact, which can cause additional stress on the road surface and discomfort to passengers or the driver inside the vehicle. It may even lead to significant deceleration of the vehicle. In severe cases, it could potentially result in a traffic accident.

What is the function of the clutch?

Clutch The function of the clutch is to smoothly engage or temporarily disconnect the engine's power from the transmission device, facilitating the driver's operations such as starting, stopping, and shifting gears. Here are the relevant details: 1. Clutch: The clutch is located inside the flywheel housing between the engine and the transmission. The clutch assembly is secured to the rear plane of the flywheel with screws, and the output shaft of the clutch is the input shaft of the transmission. During driving, the driver can press or release the clutch pedal as needed to temporarily disconnect or gradually engage the engine and the transmission, thereby cutting off or transmitting the engine's power to the transmission. 2. Notes: Only manual transmission vehicles have a clutch; automatic transmission vehicles only have brakes and an accelerator, with gear shifts automatically controlled by the vehicle's computer.
