Blue Whale engine common issues mainly include the following points: 1. Noise control: A common issue with the Blue Whale engine is that engine noise easily enters the cabin during high RPM ranges. 2. Fuel consumption: Compared to 1.4T engines of the same class, the fuel consumption of Changan's Blue Whale engine is 10%-20% higher. Advantages of the Blue Whale engine: 1. The Blue Whale NE1.4T comes from Changan's latest Blue Whale NE small and medium displacement high-efficiency engine platform. Currently, there are two models under development, the first being the already launched 1.4T turbocharged engine and 1.5T turbocharged engine. More models will be added to the development list in the future. 2. The Blue Whale NE1.4T has three main advantages. First, it has excellent power output parameters. Second, it achieves a thermal efficiency of up to 40%. Third, even with high-pressure direct injection technology, the engine still ensures an excellent sensory experience; such as vibration and noise control.

How Many Chances Are There for the Subject One Exam?

The "Regulations on the Application and Use of Motor Vehicle Driver's Licenses" clearly stipulate that on the day of the Subject One exam, candidates can take the test twice. If the first attempt is unsuccessful, a second free retake is allowed. If the second attempt also fails, the Subject One exam for that session is terminated, and the candidate can only schedule another exam after ten days. Subject One, also known as the theoretical exam or driver's theory test, is part of the assessment for obtaining a motor vehicle driver's license. The exam content includes the theoretical basis of driving, road safety laws and regulations, local regulations, and related knowledge. The exam is conducted on a computer with a time limit of 45 minutes. To pass the Subject One exam, a score of 90 out of 100 is required. The exam consists of 100 questions, divided into single-choice questions and true/false questions, with each question worth 1 point. If a candidate answers 11 questions incorrectly during the exam, the system will automatically submit the test and end the session. Subject One Exam Content: Driver's license and motor vehicle management regulations; road traffic conditions and regulations; road traffic safety violations and penalties; road traffic accident handling regulations; basic knowledge of motor vehicles; local regulations; knowledge of braking systems and safety devices for large and medium-sized passenger and freight vehicles; specialized knowledge for wheeled self-propelled machinery, trams, and trolleybuses. Subject One Exam Notes: Candidates should pay attention to their attire during the exam; wearing slippers is not allowed. Electronic devices and bags are prohibited in the exam room. Bring your ID card and queue to enter the waiting hall. Observe the instructions and procedures on the large screen, and store personal belongings in a locker before entering the exam room. Upon entering the exam room, the identity verification desk will assign a seat. After finding your seat, begin the exam. Ensure the camera is aligned with you and adhere to exam discipline. If you fail the first attempt, a retake is available on the same day. If you fail again, you must pay to reschedule. After the exam, queue to collect your score sheet and sign it. Failure to sign will render the result invalid. There is no limit to the number of times you can schedule the Subject One exam. Each subject exam allows one retake if the first attempt is unsuccessful. If you do not take the retake or fail it, the exam session is terminated, and the applicant must reschedule. For Subject Two and Subject Three, there are only five exam attempts. Scheduling for Subject Two and Subject Three exams must be done ten days later. If the Subject Three safe driving knowledge exam is unsuccessful, the previously passed road driving skills exam results remain valid. There are three subjects in the driver's license exam: Subject One, Subject Two, and Subject Three. Subject One refers to the exam on road traffic safety laws, regulations, and related knowledge. Subject Two refers to the field driving skills exam. Subject Three is divided into two parts: road driving skills and safe driving knowledge. The safe driving knowledge exam is conducted after Subject Three, so it is commonly referred to as Subject Four. However, in official terms (i.e., the Ministry of Public Security's Order No. 123), there is no such term as Subject Four.

What is the appropriate treadwear index for tires?

Treadwear index between 280 and 320 is appropriate. Treadwear index: The higher the value, the more wear-resistant the tire is, but this only applies to tires of the same brand. Between different brands, even with the same treadwear index, wear resistance may vary depending on each manufacturer's testing standards. Moreover, a higher treadwear index is not always better, as it may compromise other performance aspects such as comfort and handling. Performance parameters: Performance parameters, also known as the 3T indices, refer to treadwear index, traction index, and temperature index. For example: TREADWEAR 220 indicates a treadwear index of 220. Generally, a treadwear index between 280-320 is considered moderate, with higher numbers indicating greater wear resistance.

Is the Teana Front-Wheel Drive or Rear-Wheel Drive?

Teana is front-wheel drive. When starting on snow: Try to use a higher gear, start slowly, control the steering wheel direction, avoid starting with a heavy throttle, and maintain a gentle pace while moving, avoiding aggressive maneuvers. When braking: If the vehicle does not have ABS, it is best to use intermittent braking or rely on engine braking. Braking actions should be slow, allowing for sufficient stopping distance to avoid rear-end collision risks. If understeer occurs in a curve: Do not panic, stay calm, lightly apply the brakes to reduce speed, and gradually steer the wheel back slightly to realign the car's direction.
