Changan CS75 Million Edition is equipped with a Blue Whale engine, manufactured at the Changan Engine Plant in Jiangling. This engine is independently developed based on the Changan UK R&D Center and the Blue Whale NE Power Platform. The engine model used in the Changan CS75 is JL473ZQ5, with a maximum horsepower of 180 HP, a maximum power output of 132 kW, a maximum power speed of 5500 rpm, and a peak torque of 300 N·m. For daily maintenance of the Changan CS75 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 systems 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 oil 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 pores 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. Small amounts of sludge remain suspended in the oil, while larger amounts precipitate, 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.

Can a car charge the battery when it's running?

No, a car cannot charge the battery just by running. The battery only charges when the car is running and moving. Car battery charging tips: 1. Use high-power electrical appliances directly connected to the battery: Many car appliances nowadays, such as car refrigerators, vacuum cleaners, air pumps, etc., have very high instantaneous power. Do not power them directly from the car battery. Instead, start the vehicle first and then connect the electrical appliances. This provides good protection for the battery. 2. Turn off the air conditioning before shutting down the engine: Most car owners are accustomed to leaving the air conditioning on or letting it start automatically after the vehicle starts. This causes the air conditioning system to automatically start working every time the ignition switch is turned on, resulting in an immediate high power load on the vehicle. Over time, this can cause wear and tear on the battery.

How Does the Insurance Company Compensate for a Totaled Car?

After a collision accident, if the damaged vehicle is found to meet the total loss standard upon inspection, the insurance company calculates the compensation based on the basic formula: "Insured Amount * (1 - Number of Months from Vehicle Registration to Total Loss * 0.6%) - Vehicle Residual Value." The final compensation amount is determined according to the actual condition of the vehicle. The standards for vehicle total loss are: 1. Failure to meet safety standards: The damaged vehicle, after repair and adjustment, still does not comply with the national safety technical standards for motor vehicles; 2. Failure to meet emission standards: The damaged vehicle, after repair and adjustment, still emits pollutants or excessive noise that does not comply with national standards; 3. Repair costs exceeding 80%: If the repair costs after an accident exceed 80% of the vehicle's pre-accident value, the vehicle can be declared a total loss.

How to Check Car Fuel Consumption?

Car dashboard can display the remaining fuel level through the fuel gauge. The most common indicators are the letters 'F' and 'E'. If the needle is closer to 'E', it means the remaining fuel in the tank is low. The fuel gauge not only reflects the remaining fuel but also indicates the vehicle's fuel consumption. Here are some related details: 1. Mileage Display: In addition to directly showing fuel consumption, some digital dashboards also display the remaining range, which is the estimated distance the vehicle can travel with the current fuel level. Since the remaining range is calculated by the car's computer based on various factors, it may differ from the actual situation. Therefore, drivers can use it as a reference. 2. Definition of Fuel Consumption: Car fuel consumption refers to the fuel consumed per 100 kilometers. Different vehicles with different engine displacements have varying fuel consumption rates. Additionally, fuel consumption is influenced by driving habits, road conditions, vehicle load, tire pressure, and weather. Generally, the engine displacement of ordinary family cars ranges from 1.5L to 2.0T, with fuel consumption between 7L/100km and 10L/100km.

Can a touch-up pen be used for exposed primer?

Exposed primer cannot be directly repaired with a touch-up pen. For minor scratches, a touch-up pen can be used, but it only covers the color paint layer. If the damage reaches the primer, a touch-up pen will have difficulty repairing it effectively. It is recommended to visit a 4S shop or a professional repair shop for spray painting repair. Basic characteristics of touch-up pens: 1. Quick-drying: Due to usage environment constraints, touch-up pens must have a quick-drying feature at room temperature; otherwise, they may cause dripping or attract dust, affecting appearance. 2. Versatility: Touch-up pens are formulated with standard colors and have a certain level of versatility, but they cannot perfectly match vehicles with varying degrees of aging. For larger, longer, or deeper scratches, touch-up pens can only provide temporary concealment and cannot achieve the same effect as professional paint repair.

What to Do If a Tire Gets a Nail Puncture?

If a car tire is punctured by a nail and there is no air leakage or the leakage is very slow, you can drive at a low speed to the nearest repair shop for inspection. However, if the air leakage is severe, you should not continue driving. Instead, replace it with a spare tire or call for roadside assistance. Continuing to drive with severe air leakage can cause excessive damage to the tire due to over-compression, and in worse cases, it may even lead to wheel rim deformation. Below are the detailed guidelines: 1. Severe Air Leakage: If the tire is losing air rapidly, do not continue driving. Park the vehicle in a safe location immediately and call for assistance or replace it with a spare tire to reach the nearest repair shop. Continuing to drive under such conditions can cause irreversible damage to the tire's inner lining and the wheel rim, leading to more than just a simple tire repair. It can also significantly affect the vehicle's handling, especially in rainy conditions where it increases the risk of skidding. 2. Slow Air Leakage: If the tire is leaking air slowly, you may drive at a low speed to the nearest repair shop. It is advisable to plan your route in advance and locate the nearest auto repair shop to minimize travel distance. However, if the nearest repair shop is too far away, it is better not to take the risk, as driving with a leaking tire poses safety hazards. 3. No Air Leakage: If the tire is punctured but shows no signs of air leakage, you can continue using it temporarily. However, ignoring the issue for too long can compromise driving safety. Most modern tires are tubeless (vacuum tires), meaning they lack an inner tube. If the puncture is left untreated for an extended period, the damage may worsen, leading to cracks or even a sudden blowout. Therefore, even if there is no air leakage, it is essential to visit a repair shop as soon as possible for proper inspection and repair.

Can You Make a U-Turn at a Red Light Intersection?

If the U-turn signal is red, you must wait to make a U-turn; otherwise, it will be considered running a red light. According to the "Road Traffic Safety Law," this offense carries a penalty of 6 demerit points and a fine of 200 yuan. If there is no U-turn signal, and the gap is marked with a dashed line, the U-turn is not affected by traffic signals and does not require crossing the pedestrian crosswalk. However, if the gap is marked with a solid line, the U-turn must cross the pedestrian crosswalk and is subject to the left-turn signal. Making a direct U-turn may result in being photographed or penalized by on-site traffic police. When making a U-turn that requires crossing the pedestrian crosswalk, you must yield to pedestrians: If pedestrians are walking on the right side of the crosswalk and have not reached the centerline of the road, vehicles on the left side should slow down and proceed only after ensuring safety. If pedestrians are waiting outside the boundary of the motorized and non-motorized lanes and have not entered the roadway, vehicles should slow down and proceed only after ensuring safety. If pedestrians cross the boundary between the motorized and non-motorized lanes, vehicles failing to stop and yield are committing a violation and should be penalized. If pedestrians enter the motorized lane (Lane A) along the crosswalk, vehicles in Lane B should slow down and proceed only after ensuring safety. Vehicles in Lane A failing to stop and yield are committing a violation and should be penalized. If pedestrians waiting at the centerline of the road do not enter the motorized lane, vehicles failing to stop and yield are committing a violation and should be penalized. If pedestrians cross the centerline of the road and enter the motorized lane, vehicles failing to stop and yield are committing a violation and should be penalized. If the road is divided by a green belt and pedestrians are waiting in the middle of the road, vehicles must slow down and proceed only after ensuring safety. Scenarios where U-turns are allowed: If there is a U-turn sign at the intersection, you can make a U-turn. If there is a U-turn signal, follow the signal's instructions. If there is no signal, make the U-turn based on the specific situation, ensuring it does not interfere with other vehicles or pedestrians. If there is no explicit prohibition of U-turns or left turns at the intersection, you can make a U-turn. "No explicit prohibition" means there are no "No U-turn" or "No Left Turn" signs, and the centerline is not solid. U-turns are also allowed in yellow grid zones. Yellow grid lines indicate no-stopping zones at intersections prone to congestion, important entrances, or other designated areas. Parking (including waiting at traffic lights) in these zones is a violation. However, U-turns are permitted in yellow grid zones unless there is a central barrier. If there is a U-turn signal at the intersection, follow the signal—only proceed on green. If signs allow U-turns but prohibit left turns, note that "No U-turn" is not the same as "No Left Turn." Precautions when making a U-turn at an intersection: Observe road markings. If the line is solid, U-turns are prohibited under any circumstances. Continue driving to find a suitable location. If there is a "No Left Turn" sign, even without a "No U-turn" sign, U-turns are not allowed because U-turns inherently involve a left turn. U-turns must be made from the innermost left-turn lane. U-turns from the second left-turn lane are not permitted. Always yield to oncoming traffic before making a U-turn to avoid accidents and full liability. Near the intersection stop line, lanes often have guiding arrows. The leftmost lane may not always have a left-turn arrow. If it has a straight arrow, U-turns are prohibited even without explicit "No U-turn" signs.
