Geely Binyue's engine is produced by Geely itself, but it utilizes Volvo's technology, making it a domestically manufactured engine. The engine model of the Geely Binyue is JLH-3G15TD. The 1.4T engine delivers a maximum power of 104kW and a peak torque of 235Nm, while the 1.5T engine offers a maximum power of 130kW and a peak torque of 255Nm. Here are some maintenance tips for the Geely Binyue's engine: Use lubricating oil of 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, ensuring the standard meets or exceeds the manufacturer's requirements. Regularly change the engine oil and filter. The quality of any lubricating oil deteriorates over time. After a certain mileage, its performance declines, leading to various engine issues. To prevent malfunctions, change the oil periodically based on usage conditions and maintain an appropriate oil level. As oil passes through the fine pores of the filter, solid particles and viscous substances 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 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. 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. Periodically use a radiator cleaner to flush the radiator. Removing rust and scale deposits not only ensures the engine operates smoothly but also extends the lifespan of both the radiator and the engine.

What are the reasons for the engine warning light in a Ford Focus?

There are mainly 7 reasons for the engine warning light in a Ford Focus: Sensor failure: The sensors mentioned here include coolant temperature, crankshaft position, air flow, intake temperature, oxygen sensors, etc. When these sensors are damaged, have poor contact, or signal interruption, the car's ECU cannot accurately obtain engine data, which will trigger the engine warning light. Fuel quality issues: If fuel and engine oil are not added according to the manufacturer's requirements, it may cause engine wear and trigger the warning light. Poor combustion of the air-fuel mixture: Poor combustion can lead to engine carbon buildup or knocking. When detected by the oxygen sensor and reported to the ECU, the warning light will illuminate as a warning. Spark plug failure, ignition coil failure, fuel pump failure, and fuel line blockage can all cause poor combustion of the air-fuel mixture. Turbocharging issues: The intake turbocharging pipeline and turbocharger can also trigger the engine warning light. The most common issue is turbocharger damage, accompanied by symptoms such as oil leakage, high oil consumption, reduced power, metallic noises, and blue or black smoke from the exhaust pipe. Intake issues: If there is a problem with the car's intake, it may cause engine pipeline blockage, and in severe cases, trigger the engine warning light. A dirty air filter that is not cleaned regularly can lead to intake problems. Exhaust issues: Exhaust faults can also trigger the engine warning light. The rear oxygen sensor, catalytic converter, exhaust camshaft, and bearing failures are all causes of exhaust problems, with the catalytic converter being the most common. Using leaded gasoline, lead or silicon-based lubricant additives, physical damage to the catalytic converter, or engine fuel system failures can easily cause catalytic converter issues. Anti-theft system failure: If the car's electronic anti-theft system malfunctions or the anti-theft controller does not match the engine electronic controller, the anti-theft system can prevent the engine from operating normally and trigger the engine warning light. If the engine warning light is on, follow these steps: First, check if the engine is running normally, whether there is shaking, black smoke, etc. If so, avoid restarting the engine. Especially note that if the red light is on, do not restart the engine. If the engine can be started, turn it off for 5-10 minutes, then without pressing the brake, press the start button once or turn the key halfway to the 'on' position without pressing the clutch. The car will perform a self-check after powering on. Wait 5-10 seconds to see if the warning light on the dashboard turns off. If the warning light does not turn off, visit a service station as soon as possible to diagnose the issue. The service station can use a portable diagnostic tool to read the fault code, obtain fault information, and perform targeted repairs.

Which is Brighter, LED or Xenon Lights?

Between LED and xenon lights, LED lights are brighter. Xenon headlights are generally relatively independent units, although some vehicle models use dual xenon headlights. A notable characteristic of LED lights is that they are composed of numerous small, high-brightness light particles, usually arranged in specific shapes. Xenon headlights are a type of heavy metal lamp that uses an anti-ultraviolet glass shell filled with various chemical gases. A booster then increases the trigger voltage to protect the car's power supply, stabilize the light output, and improve efficiency.

What is Brake Pedal Free Play?

Pedal from the stop position to the step on the end of the distance. The following is part of the introduction about the brake pedal free play: 1. Function: The pedal free play is set to ensure that there is no brake drag and the brake is completely released. 2. Measurement: When measuring, place a straightedge between the brake pedal and the cab floor, press the brake pedal down by hand until there is resistance, and record the straightedge reading. Then release the pedal and look at the straightedge reading again. The difference between the two readings is the pedal free play. The free play of the hydraulic brake pedal is generally 15-20mm, and it should be adjusted according to the specified value of the vehicle model.

Should You Press the Clutch While Braking?

Whether to press the clutch while braking depends on the actual situation. 1. When the vehicle is operating at low speed and the goal is to bring it to a stop, the clutch should be pressed. 2. When the speed is too high and the goal is merely to reduce speed, it is not necessary to press the clutch. 3. It is important to ensure the speed is within the designated range for the gear. For example, when reducing speed from 70km/h to 65km/h, simply pressing the brake is sufficient, and pressing the clutch is unnecessary. Drivers should reasonably shift gears based on speed and actual traffic conditions to ensure driving safety.

Mineral Oil Change Interval?

Generally, the replacement interval for mineral oil is 5,000 kilometers or six months. It is recommended that car owners perform vehicle maintenance and change the oil in advance to better protect the engine. Below is relevant information about engine oil: 1. Classification: Engine oil is divided into three types: full synthetic oil, semi-synthetic oil, and mineral oil. 2. Mineral oil: The base oil of mineral oil is refined from petroleum, with irregular molecular sizes and shapes. It is the lowest grade among engine oil classifications, and its performance characteristics and service life are inferior to those of semi-synthetic and full synthetic oils.
