If the vehicle is turned off, there will be no impact. When the engine of the motor vehicle is shut off, the engine and other electrical equipment will also turn off simultaneously, causing no effect. It will not consume fuel. After restarting the vehicle, the air conditioning system will automatically turn on. If not in use, it needs to be manually turned off. Extended information about car air conditioning is as follows: 1. Introduction: The car air conditioning system, abbreviated as car AC, is used to adjust and control the temperature, humidity, air cleanliness, and airflow inside the car cabin to an optimal state. It provides a comfortable riding environment for passengers, reducing travel fatigue, and creates favorable working conditions for the driver, playing a crucial role in ensuring safe driving. 2. Components: Modern air conditioning systems consist of a refrigeration system, heating system, ventilation and air purification devices, and a control system.

How many kilometers should the spark plugs of Corolla Hybrid be replaced?

Corolla Hybrid spark plugs should be replaced every 100,000 kilometers. Methods to determine if spark plugs are damaged: Remove the spark plugs and observe them. Judge the condition of the spark plugs based on the following appearance colors. Normal spark plugs have a skirt and electrodes that appear gray-white, gray-yellow, or light brown. A properly functioning spark plug has a skirt that is reddish-brown, with an electrode gap between 0.8-0.9mm, and no signs of electrode burning. If the spark plugs are oily or have deposits, but the spark plugs themselves are not damaged, they can continue to be used after cleaning off the oil and deposits. If the spark plugs are severely damaged, with signs such as blistering at the top, black streaks, cracks, or melted electrodes, the cause of the damage should be identified. After troubleshooting, replace the spark plugs with new ones. Additionally, if the spark plugs appear black as if smoked, it indicates that the wrong heat range was selected for the spark plugs or that the air-fuel mixture is too rich, with oil creeping up.

Can I add PetroChina oil after adding Sinopec oil?

You can switch to PetroChina oil after using Sinopec oil, as long as the gasoline meets national standards. Below are specific comparisons between PetroChina and Sinopec: 1. Raw materials: Although PetroChina and Sinopec use almost the same processes, their additives differ. Sinopec uses some of the best imported additives available globally. 2. Density: In terms of oil density, PetroChina's gasoline density is generally around 0.72–0.73, while Sinopec's oil density is around 0.75–0.77. The quality of both oils is similar, but PetroChina's oil density is slightly lower than Sinopec's. 3. Mileage: Since PetroChina's density is lower than Sinopec's, Sinopec's fuel tends to be more durable and powerful, and it is usually slightly more expensive. However, due to differences in crude oil sources, gasoline processing methods, procedures, and additive usage between the two brands, frequent mixing may lead to minor engine issues such as slight shaking and carbon buildup.

What is the coverage and compensation amount of car insurance?

Coverage: The insured vehicle collides or overturns during use (Collision refers to direct contact between the insured vehicle and external objects, but human-induced scratches on the insured vehicle are not covered under the vehicle damage insurance; Overturning means the insured vehicle flips over due to natural disasters or accidents, losing its normal state and driving capability, and cannot be restored to driving condition without rescue.); The insured vehicle encounters fire, explosion, etc.; External objects collapse, airborne objects fall, or the insured vehicle falls parallel while driving; The insured vehicle is struck by lightning, storms, tornadoes, heavy rain, floods, tsunamis, ground collapse, ice collapse, cliff collapse, avalanches, hail disasters, mudslides, landslides, etc.; Natural disasters encountered by the insured vehicle during transportation (Only during transportation, with the 58 Auto driver accompanying and taking care of the vehicle, will the insurance company compensate); Compensation amount: Determined based on the extent of vehicle damage, with no uniform standard for compensation amount. Generally, there are the following scenarios: In case of total loss of the vehicle, compensation is calculated within the insured amount. If the insured amount exceeds the actual value of the insured vehicle at the time of the insurance incident, compensation is calculated based on the actual value of the insured vehicle at the time of the incident; In case of partial loss of the vehicle, for vehicles with the insured amount determined by the new car purchase price, compensation is calculated based on actual repair and necessary, reasonable rescue costs, using the formula: Actual repair and rescue costs - residual value. For vehicles with an insured amount lower than the new car purchase price at the time of insurance, in case of partial loss, compensation for repair and rescue costs is calculated based on the ratio of the insured amount to the new car purchase price at the time of the incident, using the formula: (Actual repair and rescue costs - residual value) × (Insured amount ÷ New car purchase price).

What is the fuel consumption of the Beijing 40 diesel version?

The comprehensive fuel consumption of the Beijing BJ40 diesel version is 8.5L/100km. Currently, there are three models of the Beijing BJ40 diesel version on sale: the Automatic 4WD Blade Hero Edition Adventurer, the Automatic 4WD Blade Hero Edition Pioneer, and the Automatic 4WD Blade Hero Edition Adventurer (with front and rear electronic locks), all with a comprehensive fuel consumption of 8.5L/100km. The above figures are NEDC comprehensive fuel consumption, which is the fuel consumption data measured under the NEDC test procedure. The actual fuel consumption is higher than this value, ranging from 9.1-10.2L/100km. Methods to reduce fuel consumption: Clean engine carbon deposits: Excessive carbon deposits in the engine are a significant cause, mainly due to the use of unsuitable fuel. It is recommended to add a certain amount of cleaning agent when refueling. If the effect is not obvious, it indicates a large amount of carbon deposits in the engine. In this case, the car must be taken to a 4S shop for professional cleaning of the carbon deposits by technicians. Check the oxygen sensor: As an internal control unit of the car, the oxygen sensor mainly monitors the fuel-air ratio in the engine. Once damaged, it will cause an imbalance in the fuel-air ratio, leading to a sudden increase in fuel consumption. If the oxygen sensor is damaged, the exhaust pipe will emit darker exhaust gas during driving, and the sensor should be replaced immediately. Regularly replace the three filters: During vehicle use, the oil filter, air filter, and fuel filter must be replaced regularly. If not replaced for a long time, they become dirty and send incorrect information to the engine control unit, resulting in incomplete fuel combustion and increased engine carbon deposits. Check the electronic control unit: Although the engine's electronic control unit is highly reliable, faults may occur in older vehicles.
