There is a time limit for the free replacement of the dual-clutch transmission in the Focus recall, which is 10 years or 240,000 kilometers. Below is a detailed introduction to the vehicle product recall: 1. Meaning of vehicle recall: A vehicle product recall refers to the process where the manufacturer of defective vehicles takes measures to eliminate the defects in their products according to legal requirements and procedures. This includes the manufacturer effectively notifying relevant parties such as dealers, repair shops, and vehicle owners about the specific details of the defects and the methods to eliminate them, and organizing dealers and repair shops to take specific measures such as repairs, replacements, or returns to address the defects. 2. Characteristics of recalled vehicles: Products subject to recall regulations should have the following characteristics: First, they are mass-produced and widely used; second, if the product causes defects, it should pose significant risks.

How to Deal with Minor Scratches on a Vehicle

First, visually inspect the areas with concentrated minor scratches and assess their depth; clean the scratched areas with a dry towel to remove dust and other contaminants; apply some toothpaste (or car wax) onto the dry towel; rub the scratched areas back and forth repeatedly; check if the scratches have been completely removed—if not, continue rubbing until they are gone; use a damp towel to clean the treated area and remove any residual toothpaste. First, determine whether the minor scratches on your car have exposed the primer. Gently scrape the scratches with your fingernail to see if there is any resistance. If there isn't, polishing will suffice. If there is, use nail polish to address it. If there is no resistance, it means the scratches are not deep and have not reached the primer. In this case, first dampen a cloth and wring it out (so it feels slightly moist). Pour a small amount of fine wax onto the center of the cloth (about the same amount as when squeezing toothpaste), spread the wax evenly on the cloth, and then gently rub the scratched area with the wax-coated part of the cloth. Rub along the direction of the scratches. After five or six back-and-forth motions, rinse the scratched area with clean water to check if the scratches are still visible. If they are gone, the scratches have been polished away. If not, simply repeat the above steps.

What is the height of the Cayenne?

The ground clearance of the Cayenne is 273mm. Below is the relevant introduction: 1. Introduction: Although the Cayenne is an SUV, it inevitably carries many sports car characteristics. Therefore, it has become the fastest off-road vehicle in the world, a speeding 'pepper' in the off-road world. In Spanish, 'cayenne' means 'pepper'. And this off-road vehicle produced by the famous sports car manufacturer indeed resembles a fiery pepper, both externally and internally, attracting people's attention. 2. Expansion: The driving mechanism of the Cayenne is the Porsche Traction Management System developed by Porsche, abbreviated as PTM, with the core being a full-time four-wheel drive system and a lockable central differential.

How often should the air filter be replaced?

The air filter should normally be replaced according to the maintenance manual or usage conditions, generally every 20,000 to 60,000 kilometers. If the driving mileage is low, it is recommended to replace it every 12 months. The location of the car's air filter element varies depending on the intake form and the engine's structure. The function of the air filter: It filters out particulate impurities in the air, ensuring that a sufficient amount of clean air enters the cylinder, preventing floating dust in the air from being sucked into the engine, which would accelerate the wear of the piston group and the cylinder. Air filter element: It is a type of filter, also known as an air filter cartridge, air cleaner, or style. It is mainly used in engineering vehicles, cars, agricultural vehicles, laboratories, sterile operating rooms, and various precision operating rooms as an air filter. During operation, the engine inhales a large amount of air. If the air is not filtered, the suspended dust in the air will be sucked into the cylinder, accelerating the wear of the piston group and the cylinder. Larger particles entering between the piston and the cylinder can cause severe cylinder scoring, which is particularly serious in dry and sandy working environments. The air cleaner is installed in front of the carburetor or intake pipe to filter out dust and sand particles in the air, ensuring that sufficient and clean air enters the cylinder. A dirty air cleaner: Using a dirty air cleaner while driving can cause insufficient engine intake, incomplete fuel combustion, leading to unstable engine operation, reduced power, and increased fuel consumption. Therefore, the car must keep the air cleaner clean. The car air cleaner is a device that removes particulate impurities from the air, consisting of one or several components that clean the air. Its main function is to filter out harmful impurities in the air that is about to enter the cylinder, to reduce early wear of the cylinder, piston, piston rings, valves, and valve seats. Therefore, before the air enters the cylinder, it must pass through the fine filtration of the air cleaner. A dirty air cleaner can cause poor engine performance, excessive fuel consumption, and engine damage. When inspecting the air cleaner, if it is found to have little dust and is lightly clogged, it can be cleaned by blowing high-pressure air from the inside out and continue to be used. A heavily dirty air cleaner should be replaced promptly.

What is the ground clearance of the Cayenne?

The ground clearance of the 2022 Porsche Cayenne is 175 millimeters. The ground clearance of the 2022 Cayenne refers to the distance between the lowest point (excluding the wheels) and the supporting plane, which indicates the vehicle's ability to pass over obstacles such as rocks and tree stumps without collision. A higher ground clearance for the 2022 Cayenne improves off-road capability, but if the ground clearance is too high, the stability at high speeds will decrease. The Porsche Cayenne, known internationally as Porsche Cayenne, is an SUV model. The dimensions of the 2022 Cayenne are 4846 mm in length, 1939 mm in width, 1705 mm in height, with a wheelbase of 2895 mm. Generally, the ground clearance for sedans ranges between 110 mm and 150 mm, while SUVs typically have a ground clearance between 200 mm and 250 mm. However, the ground clearance of the 2022 Cayenne is not static; it also depends on the load condition. Therefore, changes in ground clearance should be considered based on the load variations of the 2022 Cayenne. When selecting a vehicle, ground clearance can be one of the reference factors. The choice should depend on the vehicle's intended use and the road conditions. For urban areas with well-paved roads, a vehicle with lower ground clearance can enhance stability and comfort. For long-distance travel or driving in areas with poor road conditions, a vehicle with higher ground clearance may be preferred to avoid scraping or damaging the undercarriage, considering the vehicle's off-road performance.

What is the fuel consumption of the Cayenne Hybrid?

Cayenne Hybrid's actual fuel consumption is 8 liters per 100 kilometers. Related introduction: 1. Exterior: In terms of appearance, the Cayenne's headlights and radiator grille maintain Porsche's traditional style. The car is 1940mm wide but only 1690mm high. The ground clearance is 273mm, with a maximum approach angle of 32 degrees. The long-travel suspension springs enhance off-road performance, and the air suspension has a 116mm adjustment range with six height settings, covering the needs of both off-road vehicles and sports cars. This is a very unique feature of Porsche SUVs. 2. Expansion: In the domestic market, the new Porsche Cayenne models available for customers to choose from are only the Cayenne, Cayenne-S, and Cayenne-Turbo versions. The previously performance-enhanced Turbo-S version is a conservative project for Porsche and is expected to be released at an opportune time.
