Nissan Patrol is indeed a hardcore off-road vehicle. This model features a body-on-frame design and is equipped with a full-time four-wheel-drive system, giving it formidable off-road capabilities. Typically, hardcore off-road vehicles adopt body-on-frame construction, which differs from the unibody design used in regular passenger cars or urban SUVs. In body-on-frame vehicles, the body shell and chassis are separate components that can be detached. The Nissan Patrol utilizes double-wishbone independent suspensions at both front and rear for enhanced handling, with body dimensions measuring 5140mm in length, 1995mm in width, and 1955mm in height.

How to adjust the fuel-saving switch on Auman GTL?

Auman GTL fuel-saving switch usage is as follows: 1. E mode is the economy mode, used when the vehicle is empty or carrying light loads. 2. B mode is the standard mode, used when the vehicle is half-loaded or carrying medium-weight cargo. 3. P mode is the power mode, used when the vehicle is fully loaded or climbing slopes. 4. Each mode corresponds to different engine power outputs, fully considering fuel efficiency. Main functions of the fuel-saving switch: 1. Helps the vehicle save fuel more effectively. Trucks don't always run with full loads; sometimes they operate empty. In such cases, if the engine runs at full power, it significantly impacts fuel consumption. 2. The fuel-saving switch addresses this issue by allowing adjustment when the vehicle is empty, enabling the engine to operate with reduced power output for better fuel efficiency and optimal fuel economy.

Can the rear seats of the 2021 Buick Excelle be folded down?

The rear seats of the 2021 Buick Excelle can be folded down. First, move the front seats forward, then close the center armrest in the rear seats, retract all seatbelt buckles in the middle of the rear seats, adjust the headrest to the lowest position, and manually fold down the seats from the rear. The rear seats are operated by a shoulder switch, and they can be folded down in a certain ratio. There are mainly two types of rear seat folding methods: split-folding and full-folding. When fully folded, the rear seats cannot accommodate passengers, whereas with split-folding, the unfolded portion can still seat passengers. If the rear seats of the Excelle can be folded down, the seatbacks can be lowered to create more space when needed. The rear seat folding feature is very practical, and many compact models now have this function. However, the folding mechanisms vary by model. For example, in the Buick Excelle and Regal, the rear seats are folded using a lever in the trunk.

What Causes Engine Shaking When Turning on the AC?

The most common reason for engine shaking when turning on the air conditioning is dirty throttle body. Here are the causes of car shaking when AC is on: 1. Excessive compressor pressure: High pressure increases engine load, affecting the vehicle's stability. 2. Throttle body needs cleaning: During operation, carbon deposits accumulate in the throttle body. Excessive carbon buildup can block normal engine air intake, resulting in insufficient power to drive the compressor or barely enough to operate it. 3. Engine carbon deposits or aging: Idle shaking issues generally stem from engine problems. If the engine hasn't been cleaned for a long time or shows signs of aging, it will affect normal operation. 4. Spark plug carbon deposits: After prolonged use, spark plugs accumulate carbon deposits. If not cleaned promptly, this reduces engine torque output, causing AC-induced shaking.

What maintenance is required for a car at 40,000 kilometers?

At 40,000 kilometers, the maintenance items required for a car include changing the engine oil, oil filter, and spark plugs, as well as inspecting the wheel hubs and brake system. Below is a detailed introduction to car maintenance items: 1. Engine oil and oil filter replacement: This is primarily maintenance for the lubrication system. The main function of the lubrication system is to effectively lubricate the various components of the car engine to prevent excessive wear. The oil filter removes various impurities from the engine oil to ensure the normal operation of the lubrication system. The oil filter should be replaced along with the engine oil during an oil change. Under normal circumstances, a car should be serviced every 5,000 kilometers. 2. Air filter replacement: The air filter functions to filter the air before it enters the cylinders, removing impurities such as dust, sand, and other foreign particles. The cleaning and maintenance of the air filter depend on the usage environment. The gasoline filter is typically replaced every 20,000 to 25,000 kilometers. 3. Spark plug replacement: Spark plugs are consumable parts and should be replaced every 20,000 kilometers. Additionally, components such as brake fluid, transmission fluid, the battery, throttle body, fuel injectors, and brake pads are all part of the inspection items during routine maintenance, and their maintenance depends on usage conditions.

What is the fuel tank capacity of the first-generation Geely King Kong?

The fuel tank capacity of the Geely King Kong is 45 liters, as officially announced. Owners who have purchased the Geely King Kong can also check this information on the vehicle's configuration sheet. The recommended fuel grade for the Geely King Kong is 92 octane, with a fuel consumption of 5.6 to 7.5L per 100 kilometers. A full tank can cover a distance of 600 to 803 kilometers. During daily driving, it is essential to monitor the remaining fuel level in the tank. This is typically observed through the fuel gauge inside the vehicle. If there are no other issues, the fuel level will be accurately reflected on the gauge. The fuel gauge usually has 5 to 6 segments. It is advisable to refuel when only 2 segments remain to avoid running out of fuel midway. During actual refueling, the amount of fuel may exceed the marked capacity. This is because the fuel tank capacity marked by the manufacturer is measured from the bottom of the tank to the safety level, with additional space from the safety level to the tank opening. This extra space ensures that the fuel can expand when temperatures rise without overflowing. If fuel is added up to the tank opening during refueling, the actual amount of fuel may exceed the marked capacity.

What are the signs that brake fluid needs to be replaced?

The signs that brake fluid needs to be replaced include intermittent warning flashes of the brake indicator light during emergency braking or continuous braking. Below are the specific impacts of not replacing brake fluid for an extended period: 1. Corrosion of the braking system: Brake fluid is hygroscopic and tends to absorb water. If not replaced for a long time, the brake fluid can corrode the braking system, posing significant safety risks. 2. Formation of vapor lock: After absorbing water, the boiling point of brake fluid decreases, which can easily lead to insufficient braking pressure and affect braking performance. When the temperature rises to the boiling point, the water in the brake fluid will boil, generating a large number of bubbles. 3. Clogging of the brake system: Not replacing the brake fluid for a long time allows deposits and impurities in the brake lines to cause brake system malfunctions, impairing braking performance.
