How often should the CVT transmission fluid in a Corolla be changed?

The CVT transmission fluid in a Corolla is generally recommended to be changed every two years or approximately 60,000 kilometers. The Corolla uses a CVT continuously variable transmission (simulating 8 gears) and an E-CVT continuously variable transmission. The replacement intervals vary for different types of vehicles. Below are the recommended replacement intervals for transmission fluid. Manual Transmission: Manual transmission fluid is generally recommended to be changed every three years or approximately 100,000 kilometers. Automatic Transmission: Automatic transmission fluid is generally recommended to be changed every two years or approximately 40,000 kilometers. Continuously Variable Transmission (CVT): CVT transmission fluid is generally recommended to be changed every two years or approximately 60,000 kilometers. The methods for changing transmission fluid are as follows: 1. Loosen the drain screw at the bottom of the transmission to drain the old fluid, then refill with new fluid. 2. Remove the transmission oil pan directly to drain the old fluid and refill: This method is more thorough than the previous one, as it removes impurities from the bottom of the oil pan. 3. Use a circulation machine to change automatic transmission fluid: A smart circulation machine can perform dynamic fluid replacement, filtering and cleaning sludge and impurities inside the automatic transmission.

What causes the water sound when turning in the Trumpchi GS4?

The reasons for the water sound when turning in the Trumpchi GS4 are: first, the power steering pump may be making noise; second, the outer CV joint of the front drive shaft may be noisy. It is necessary to go to a 4S shop or repair shop to check if the outer CV joint boot is damaged. If the situation is confirmed, the outer CV joint needs to be replaced. Here is some related information: 1. Positioning: The GAC Trumpchi GS4 is positioned as an "International New Trend SUV" and was officially launched on April 18, 2015, with a total of 8 models introduced. 2. Engine: The new Trumpchi is equipped with a second-generation 200T engine. The low-inertia E-TURBO turbocharging technology can enhance low-speed torque, providing a powerful driving experience. The GCCS combustion control patent technology effectively ensures the engine's high torque and low fuel consumption. It also features a START-STOP engine start-stop system, significantly improving fuel economy and reducing emissions. The engine delivers a peak torque of 202N.m within a speed range of 1500—4200rpm, with a combined fuel consumption of only 6.3L per 100 kilometers.

How Long is the Warranty for the Geely Emgrand Water Pump?

The warranty period for the Geely Emgrand water pump is three years. Automotive engines widely use centrifugal water pumps. Their basic structure consists of the water pump housing, connecting plate or pulley, water pump shaft and bearings or integrated bearing, water pump impeller, and sealing components, which are key parts of the vehicle. The repair method for a leaking water pump is as follows: 1. Remove the water pump: First, drain the coolant from the water pump, remove the V-belt, use a special tool to press out the water pump pulley, and then dismantle the water pump; 2. Disassemble the water pump: Use a special tool to first remove the water pump bearing, then detach the water pump impeller and sealing assembly from the bearing; 3. Replace the sealing ring, new gasket, new V-belt, and new pulley; 4. Reassemble: Use a special tool to press the bearing onto the water pump impeller first, then press the impeller and sealing assembly into the designated position, and press the water pump bearing onto the pulley seat. During the operation, ensure the bearing end face is flush with the housing, and the impeller plane is 0.1-0.3mm lower than the pump housing plane; 5. Inspection: The assembled water pump should have a shaft that rotates smoothly, and the bearing should have no noticeable radial play; 6. Refill with new coolant.

What is the noise level of the Buick GL8 652?

Actual test: The GL8 652 performs very well in terms of noise, with a noise level of 57.8 decibels at 60km/h, 61.4 decibels at 90km/h, and 67.8 decibels at 120km/h. Here are the relevant details: 1. Exterior Design: The new model of the Buick GL8 has undergone significant changes in design, with the new family-style exterior delivering a more fashionable appearance. The silver chrome trim that runs through the headlights, grille, and emblem is a highlight of the front fascia, following the direction of the family design, and the front bumper has also become more three-dimensional. The side profile retains the previous body shape and smooth lines, with the angular fold at the lower edge of the sliding door window remaining. At the rear, the first thing that catches the eye is the chrome trim that spans the tail, echoing the front, and the taillights have become slimmer compared to the older model. 2. Interior: The interior design also adopts a wing-inspired shape, with the gearshift area retaining the traditional MPV design style. The new GL8 features a floating center console screen, while the newer GL8 has been upgraded with a technologically advanced dual-screen setup. The body length has been reduced, but the shorter front overhang and increased body height have improved the interior space of the new-generation Buick GL8 compared to the current model.

How long is the break-in period for the GAC Trumpchi GS4?

The break-in period for the GAC Trumpchi GS4, as stated in the user manual, is 1500 kilometers. It is safer and more appropriate to drive on highways after the break-in period is completed. It is important to note that the break-in period is not just for the engine but for all components of the vehicle. Generally, the first 200–500 kilometers mainly involve breaking in the tires and brakes, so avoid sudden acceleration and hard braking. It is best to avoid aggressive driving within the first 3000 kilometers, and the engine RPM should preferably not exceed 2500. During the break-in period of a new car, the following aspects should be noted: 1. Allow a warm-up period during cold starts, and wait for the water temperature to change before driving, usually about 2–3 minutes. In summer, when temperatures are high, warming up for about 1 minute is sufficient. 2. During the break-in period, the maximum speed should not exceed 100 km/h, but prolonged low-speed driving should also be avoided. Pay attention to gear changes. 3. Avoid overloading the vehicle with passengers or cargo. 4. Follow the manufacturer or 4S store's requirements and schedule the first maintenance on time.
