First, turn the key to power on, then press and hold the DPF regeneration switch on the center console. The dashboard will display the message "Please start the vehicle and idle." At this point, start the engine, and the engine speed will automatically rise to 2,000 RPM and maintain the vehicle's operation. After ten minutes, the engine will still maintain 2,000 RPM, but the "wrench" symbol on the dashboard will disappear. Then wait another 5 minutes, and the vehicle will return to idle. The dashboard will display "Self-cleaning completed, thank you for waiting," indicating that the self-cleaning process is finished.

What does the dashboard (!) mean?

Dashboard (!) is the brake system fault light. When the brake system fault light is on, it represents: 1. It is normal for the light to come on for a few seconds after turning on the ignition switch; 2. The brake fluid level is too low or the brake fluid has deteriorated, and the light comes on during driving; 3. The brake system has malfunctioned; 4. The brake pads are severely worn or have failed. Common fault indicator lights include: 1. Tire pressure warning light, usually displayed as a yellow warning light, with an exclamation mark in the middle resembling a tire; 2. Oil indicator light, if the oil light is on when the vehicle is started, it may be due to insufficient oil pressure; 3. Washer fluid indicator light, indicating that the washer fluid is about to run out or has already run out.

Is the Corolla Fuel-Efficient?

Toyota Corolla fuel consumption: 7.3L/100km. The Corolla is the tenth-generation straight-line upgrade of the Toyota COROLLA. Since its launch in November 2017, the Corolla has garnered attention from consumers worldwide; today, this globally best-selling car is produced by FAW Toyota, once again allowing Chinese consumers to experience Toyota's latest technology and driving experience. Actual fuel consumption of the Toyota Corolla: Regarding the actual fuel consumption reported by owners, it is explicitly noted that an average fuel consumption of 5.5L is unrealistic, but the top five fuel efficiency rankings can be achieved during highway driving. Configuration of the Toyota Corolla: The Corolla is equipped with a 1.2T engine paired with a fuel-efficient CVT transmission, delivering an overall power performance of 85kW/185N.m and a curb weight of 1.35 tons. The new Corolla comes standard with eight airbags, four independent suspensions, electronic parking, ACC adaptive cruise control, and collision warning. Active braking is also a standard feature.

What Causes Engine Idle Vibration?

Engine idle vibration can be caused by: 1. Dirty throttle body; 2. Faulty spark plugs; 3. One cylinder not working; 4. Aging rubber components in engine and transmission mounts; 5. Loose intake manifold clamps or cracked hoses; 6. Leaking intake manifold gaskets; 7. Damaged intake manifold or holes worn by other components. Additionally, unwanted air, fuel vapors, or exhaust gases entering the intake manifold can cause excessively rich or lean fuel mixtures, leading to abnormal combustion. When leaks affect individual cylinders, the engine may experience severe vibrations, particularly noticeable during cold idle conditions.

What are the differences between 0w40 and 5w40 engine oil?

The differences between 0w40 and 5w40 engine oil are: 1. Different low-temperature fluidity: 0w40 engine oil has better low-temperature fluidity and can adapt to lower temperatures, down to -35 degrees Celsius; 5w40 engine oil can only withstand temperatures as low as -30 degrees Celsius. 2. Different types of engine oil: 0w40 refers to fully synthetic oil; 5w40 refers to semi-synthetic oil. The number before the W represents the minimum temperature it can withstand. The smaller the number, the lower the low-temperature viscosity, the better the low-temperature fluidity, and the lower the applicable minimum temperature, making it easier to start in cold conditions. The number after the W represents the viscosity of the oil at 100 degrees Celsius. The larger the number, the higher the viscosity, which means it can form a good oil film at high engine temperatures and has a wider applicable temperature range.

Why does the engine shake at idle but stops shaking when accelerating?

The reasons why the engine shakes at idle but stops shaking when accelerating are: 1. Severe carbon buildup inside the engine: Carbon deposits on the throttle body, fuel injectors, spark plugs, and pistons. When these deposits accumulate to a certain extent, they absorb combustion heat, leading to conditions like pre-ignition or knocking; 2. Ignition system issues: Excessive carbon buildup on spark plugs or insufficient ignition voltage can cause misfiring, resulting in single or multiple cylinder misfires. This leads to insufficient engine power and thus shaking; 3. Unstable fuel pressure: The fuel system includes components like the fuel tank, fuel filter, fuel pump, oil-gas separator, fuel lines, and fuel gauge. A problem in any of these can cause unstable fuel pressure; 4. Aging of internal engine components: This typically occurs after the vehicle has been used for a certain number of years or miles. Severe loss of engine power can cause shaking, and such vehicles often shake at low RPMs, with symptoms improving somewhat after accelerating.

Can Fuel Additive Be Added After Refueling?

Fuel additive can be added after refueling, but it is more effective to add it before refueling. This is because the gasoline can help disperse the fuel additive, ensuring it is evenly distributed throughout the fuel tank. Adding fuel additive after refueling may result in less effective mixing, with some of the additive adhering to the walls of the fuel filler pipe, leading to an uneven ratio of fuel to additive and affecting its performance. Fuel additive, also known as fuel system cleaner, is directly added to the vehicle's fuel tank to clean carbon deposits and maintain the engine. Fuel additive offers several benefits: 1. Improves gasoline atomization, removes carbon deposits in the cylinders, and breaks down carbon deposits or gum deposits on the engine's fuel injectors caused by gasoline combustion; 2. Cleans the fuel system, enhances power, and reduces fuel consumption; 3. Protects the engine, reduces wear, and lowers emissions, among other advantages.
