The engine in the CS55 is not a Blue Whale engine. It is independently developed and produced by Changan and belongs to a domestically manufactured engine. The engine model of the CS55 is JL476ZQCD, with a maximum power of 115kW (5500rpm), a maximum horsepower of 156Ps, and a maximum torque of 225 Nm. For daily maintenance of the CS55's engine, the following methods can be used: Use lubricating oil of the appropriate quality grade. For gasoline engines, select SD--SF grade gasoline engine oil based on the additional equipment of 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 change the 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 avoid malfunctions, change the oil periodically based on usage conditions and maintain an appropriate oil level. When 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, it may rupture the filter 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 contamination. 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. Small amounts remain suspended in the oil, while larger amounts precipitate, clogging filters and oil passages, making engine lubrication difficult and causing wear. Periodically use a radiator cleaner to flush the radiator. Removing rust and scale deposits not only ensures the engine operates properly but also extends the overall lifespan of the radiator and engine.

Why does the car shake when the brake is pressed?

The shaking when pressing the brake may be caused by uneven wear of the brake discs. This phenomenon mainly occurs when the driver frequently uses intermittent braking (point braking) over a long period, causing the brake discs to develop an uneven surface with alternating high and low spots. When braking, the brake pads gripping these uneven surfaces can lead to shaking. Therefore, drivers should use the brakes properly and according to standard practices to avoid such issues later. Additionally, when the car's electrical system is turned on while the engine is idling, it can cause the vehicle to shake. The engine load increases due to the electrical system being activated, leading to a drop in idle speed. To compensate for this shaking caused by the idle drop, the engine will automatically raise the RPM slightly.

What is the purpose of a secondary air pump?

The secondary air pump functions to inject air into the exhaust manifold after a cold engine start. Its purpose is to enable the incomplete combustion of the air-fuel mixture to undergo a second combustion process within the exhaust pipe, thereby reducing emissions and meeting current stringent environmental requirements. The working principle of the secondary air pump involves driving the air pump via the crankshaft belt when the engine is running, pumping a large volume of low-pressure air through a hose into the diverter valve. The secondary air system is one of the external purification devices designed to reduce exhaust emissions. By introducing additional air into the exhaust gases, it increases the oxygen content, allowing unburned harmful substances such as carbon monoxide and hydrocarbons to undergo further combustion under high-temperature conditions.

Does a Lifetime Driver's License Require Annual Inspection?

Lifetime driver's licenses require annual inspection, with exemptions under the following circumstances: 1. If the vehicle has no demerit points recorded within a scoring cycle, it may be exempt from inspection for that cycle; 2. Holders of a C1 lifetime driver's license may be exempt from inspection for the current scoring cycle if they accumulate fewer than 12 demerit points within that cycle. Vehicle annual inspection refers to a mandatory test for all vehicles that have obtained official license plates and registration certificates, equivalent to an annual physical examination for vehicles based on the technical safety requirements for motor vehicle operation. Vehicle annual inspections help promptly eliminate potential safety hazards, encourage enhanced vehicle maintenance, and reduce the occurrence of traffic accidents.

What Causes Engine Shaking When the Front Oxygen Sensor Fails?

The causes of engine shaking when the front oxygen sensor fails are: 1. Poor fuel quality; 2. Faulty spark plugs; 3. Damaged catalytic converter. The impacts of a faulty front oxygen sensor include: 1. Excessive exhaust emissions; 2. Deterioration of engine performance; 3. Engine stalling at idle; 4. Inaccurate engine operation and reduced power; 5. The engine control unit (ECU) being unable to accurately assess the air-fuel mixture condition; 6. Disruption of the catalytic converter's normal operation. The front oxygen sensor is a critical feedback sensor in the electronic fuel injection control system, playing a key role in managing vehicle exhaust emissions, reducing environmental pollution, and improving fuel combustion efficiency in the engine. It is installed on the engine's exhaust pipe.
