Depending on the model year, the Mazda CX-5 comes in both imported and domestically produced versions. The engine in the new Mazda CX-5 is imported. The main change in the new Mazda model is the addition of a 2.5T turbocharged engine, making it the first Mazda model to feature a 2.5T gasoline turbo engine. Additionally, the 2.2T diesel version comes with a 6MT transmission. Below is a detailed introduction to the Mazda CX-5: 1. Exterior: The Chang'an Mazda CX-5's exterior shows no significant differences from the earlier imported version, with the "Chang'an Mazda" badge on the rear indicating its domestic production status. 2. Interior: Compared to the "KODO" exterior design, the interior of the new Chang'an Mazda CX-5 has undergone some changes, featuring a new infotainment system, increased storage space, rear air vents, and a layout identical to the imported version. However, the Chang'an Mazda CX-5 interior adds piano black finishes and chrome decorations, further enhancing its premium feel. 3. Features: The Chang'an Mazda CX-5 comes standard with front and rear head airbags, keyless start, stability control, hill start assist, multifunction steering wheel, seat lumbar support adjustment, headlight height adjustment, heated power mirrors, and dual-zone automatic climate control.

I've worked at an auto repair shop for over a decade and fixed plenty of Mazda CX-5s. After localization, this model's engine switched to domestically assembled units produced at the Nanjing plant. Mazda transferred the complete Skyactiv technology suite here, even importing production line equipment from Japan. While some complain 'domestic versions aren't as good as imports,' when I disassemble them, the cylinder block precision and assembly craftsmanship are identical to early imported versions. Higher localization rates actually benefit customers - maintenance parts can be replaced same-day. Last time I replaced a high-pressure fuel pump for a client, the domestic part arrived in two days, far better than waiting half a month for imported components.

Where is the brake light switch on a Volkswagen Jetta?

The brake light switch on a Volkswagen Jetta is located inside the cover panel above the brake pedal. Brake lights are generally installed at the rear of the vehicle and are red in color to enhance the penetration of the light source. This allows vehicles behind to easily detect when the front vehicle is braking, even in low visibility conditions, helping to prevent rear-end collisions. Here is additional information: Classification of automotive lights: 1. Headlights: Combined headlights are located at the front of the vehicle and primarily serve for illumination and signaling. The light emitted by headlights illuminates the road ahead, enabling safe driving at night. 2. Combined taillights: Combined taillights are located at the rear of the vehicle and mainly serve for illumination and signaling. 3. Turn signals: Used to indicate left or right turns to other road users. Regulations require these to be amber in color. 4. License plate lights: These primarily illuminate the license plate, allowing people to identify the vehicle's license plate at night.

What are the reasons for ETC not responding?

ETC not responding can be due to the ETC device being out of power or the card being inserted incorrectly. Below are the relevant explanations: 1. Incorrect card insertion: If a solar-powered ETC device does not respond when inserting the card, you need to remove the card, flip it, and insert it into the other side of the ETC device. If the display lights up and shows the balance, it means the card has been successfully inserted. 2. ETC out of power: If a battery-powered ETC device does not respond when the card is inserted correctly, you need to visit the service location to have the staff handle it, as the owner cannot charge it themselves. ETC refers to the Electronic Toll Collection system, which involves dedicated short-range communication between the vehicle-mounted electronic tag installed on the windshield and the microwave antenna in the ETC lane at toll stations on highways or bridges. It uses computer networking technology to process backend settlements with banks, allowing vehicles to pass through highway or bridge toll stations without stopping to pay the fees.

Can a Car Start Normally If the Spark Plug is Broken?

Can a car start normally if the spark plug is broken? However, a damaged spark plug can directly cause issues such as leakage in the vehicle's ignition system, increased fuel consumption, reduced power, and most importantly, difficulty in ignition, affecting the normal operation of the vehicle. Severe erosion of the spark plug, such as scarring at the top, damage, or melting and erosion of the electrodes, indicates that the spark plug is damaged and should be replaced. Steps to replace a spark plug: Open the engine hood, lift the plastic cover of the engine, and remove the high-voltage wires. Mark the position of each cylinder to avoid confusion. Use a spark plug socket to remove the spark plugs one by one. While removing them, check for any external debris like leaves or dust and ensure they are cleaned thoroughly. Place the new spark plug into the spark plug hole, hand-tighten it a few turns, and then use the socket to tighten it further. Reinstall the removed high-voltage wires in the firing order, and then secure the cover.
