I've recently become fascinated with studying French cars and discovered several classic brands that are particularly interesting. Peugeot started out making pepper mills, and now their cars like the 308 and 5008 are really enjoyable to drive with stylish designs; Citroën is most famous for its hydropneumatic suspension - I rode in a friend's old C5, and it was incredibly comfortable over speed bumps. Renault sells extremely well in Europe, with small cars like the Clio seen everywhere in Paris, and the Mégane RS remains a front-wheel-drive hot hatch. At the high end, there's Bugatti - their Chiron can reach 480 km/h with an all-carbon-fiber body, which is absolutely insane. There's also a niche brand Alpine, whose revived A110 sports car weighs only 1080 kg, a pure driving machine. DS has now become independent, and the new DS9 features pearl-stitched interiors - the French really know how to play with romance.

What is the difference between 5w30 and 10w40?

The difference between 5w30 and 10w40 lies in their normal flow temperatures: 5w30 can flow normally at -30 degrees Celsius, while 10w40 can flow normally at -25 degrees Celsius. The 'W' stands for winter, and the smaller the number before it, the better the oil flows at low temperatures, indicating a lower applicable minimum temperature. The number after the 'W' refers to the oil's viscosity at 100 degrees, with higher numbers representing higher viscosity. Engine oil serves to lubricate and reduce friction, assist in cooling, seal against leaks, prevent rust and corrosion, and provide shock absorption. Engine oil consists of base oil and additives; base oil is the main component of lubricating oil, determining its basic properties, while additives compensate for and improve any shortcomings in the base oil's performance, making them an integral part of the lubricating oil.

Is It Normal for Spark Plug Ceramic to Turn Yellow?

It is normal for the ceramic part of a spark plug to turn yellow. The functions of an automotive spark plug are: 1. To introduce the high-voltage electricity generated by the ignition coil into the engine cylinder; 2. To generate sparks between the spark plug electrode gaps to ignite the air-fuel mixture, ensuring normal engine operation. The procedure for removing an automotive spark plug: 1. Use compressed air or a fine hose to blow away dust and debris around the spark plug; 2. Ensure the engine is in a cold state before proceeding; 3. Immediately protect the spark plug installation port after removal to prevent debris or dust from entering the cylinder; 4. Avoid damaging the insulating ceramic body when using a wrench; 5. Do not bend or strike the center electrode when adjusting the spark plug gap.

What are the precautions when picking up a car at a 4S store?

When picking up a car at a 4S store, pay attention to checking whether the paint surface has defects, checking the production date, checking the buttons inside the car, and checking various materials of the vehicle. Check whether the paint surface has defects: When the car leaves the factory, the paint surface is smooth and flawless because new cars are also inspected before leaving the factory. However, during transportation from the manufacturer to the 4S store, the car may suffer scratches. Some dealers may repaint it and sell it as a new car. Therefore, when picking up the car, be sure to check whether the paint surface is smooth and flawless. If there are defects, it may be a damaged car that has been repainted. Check the production date: If a car is not sold within a few months after leaving the factory, it becomes a stock car. When picking up the car, check the production date. Check the buttons inside the car: The car has many configurations, and most functions are controlled by the buttons inside the car. When picking up the car, be sure to test whether all buttons are functioning properly. The best method is to open and experience all buttons that can be opened. Check various materials of the vehicle: These include the purchase invoice, certificate of conformity, vehicle consistency certificate, motor vehicle registration certificate, three-guarantee certificate, vehicle user manual, and new car delivery confirmation form. If the 4S store is responsible for license plate registration and insurance, you also need to obtain the original insurance policy, insurance invoice, compulsory traffic insurance invoice, vehicle and vessel tax invoice, purchase tax invoice, tax payment certificate, and compulsory traffic insurance label from the salesperson.
