According to the manufacturer's requirements, the entire BYD Qin series uses 92 octane or higher gasoline, and only vehicle gasoline that complies with national mandatory standards and the recommended octane rating is permitted. Using lower octane fuel can cause severe damage to the engine and catalytic converter, reduce engine power and torque, and increase fuel consumption. The BYD Qin is a high-performance sedan independently developed by BYD Co., Ltd. as part of its second-generation DM series. In terms of exterior design, the BYD Qin continues the concept car's design, removing the original brand logo from the front grille and the blue elements around the headlight assembly while adding chrome accents to both sides of the front bumper. Additionally, LED daytime running lights have been incorporated into the headlights. For powertrain, the BYD Qin continues to feature a plug-in hybrid system consisting of a 1.5TI engine and an electric motor, paired with a 6-speed DCT transmission. The gear lever has also been redesigned with a new shape.

What is the lifespan of the timing chain in the eighth-generation Accord?

The lifespan of the Accord's timing chain is approximately 180,000 to 200,000 kilometers. Timing Chain: The timing chain operates by connecting the crankshaft and camshaft sprockets with high-strength metal chains to ensure synchronized movement. Due to the high-speed operation between metal components, which leads to rapid wear and high temperatures, a corresponding lubrication system must be designed for cooling and lubrication. Function of the Timing Chain: The "timing belt" or "timing chain" is a critical component of the engine. Its primary function is to drive the engine's valve train, ensuring that the intake and exhaust valves open and close at the appropriate times, allowing the engine cylinders to properly intake and exhaust air.

Can Scratches on Headlights Be Repaired?

Minor scratches can be repaired, but severe scratches or broken headlights cannot; even after repair, noticeable marks may remain. If the headlight is scratched, it can first be polished; if that doesn't work, sanding may be necessary. Long scratches and cracks on car headlights can be treated with fine sandpaper, followed by polishing with polishing wax. The principle is similar to painting and polishing—cover the areas around the headlight that don't need refurbishment with tape and sand with water sandpaper. Different headlights require different approaches: For headlights made of different materials, the following repair techniques can be summarized: Glass material—if the headlight isn't broken, it usually won't have many scratches. In this case, simply wiping it a few times or using specific types of sandpaper to smooth out the marks may suffice. However, if the headlight is severely scratched, it's best to replace it. Special plastic material—headlights made of special plastic can be treated with specialized sandpaper or a towel. If the housing still has scratches, it's recommended to replace the headlight directly. Introduction to ABS engineering plastic material: Headlights made of this material generally outperform others in terms of wear resistance, high-temperature resistance, light penetration, and hardness. If accidentally scratched, you can try using specialized sandpaper or a sander to lightly polish the surface, which may restore its original appearance—though this depends on the specific damage. Regardless of the type of headlight that's scratched, it's advisable for the owner to visit a nearby professional auto repair shop or car detailing service for repairs. Alternatively, purchasing a refurbished headlight from a professional dismantling parts marketplace for replacement can save repair costs while ensuring driving safety.
