I've been driving a pure electric vehicle and find the maintenance particularly effortless. The main task is battery inspection. During each service, technicians use professional tools to test battery health, ensuring there's no aging or capacity degradation, which directly impacts the range. Tires are crucial—EVs accelerate aggressively, wearing them out much faster, so pressure needs regular adjustment to save energy. The braking system can't be overlooked either; although regenerative braking helps a lot, mechanical components still need checking for rust or fluid leaks. Software updates come frequently, pushed like smartphone upgrades to optimize energy consumption. Cooling system maintenance prevents overheating, especially important in summer with heavy usage. Lights and door locks should also be checked for safety. Overall, once a year is enough, saving multiple times the cost and time compared to gas cars—peace of mind and savings rolled into one.

Why does the car body shake when the speed exceeds 80 mph?

The reasons for car body shaking when the speed exceeds 80 mph are: 1. Severe engine carbon deposits. When the fuel injectors have excessive carbon buildup or the throttle valve is too dirty, the excessive carbon deposits inside the engine can cause the gasoline sprayed during cold starts to be absorbed by the carbon deposits; 2. Poor ignition system performance, with suboptimal spark plug firing. Check if the spark plugs have excessive carbon buildup and replace them promptly if necessary; 3. Unstable fuel pressure. If the car body still shakes at idle after cleaning the throttle valve, engine carbon deposits, spark plugs, and replacing the fuel pads, it is necessary to check whether the intake pressure sensor and fuel supply pressure are normal. It is recommended to take the car to a repair shop to inspect the fuel supply pressure and the intake pressure sensor. Abnormal fuel pump supply pressure or incorrect readings and poor performance of the intake pressure sensor can all cause the car body to shake.

What is the reason for the constant illumination of the brake light on Dongfeng Fengguang 580?

The constant illumination of the brake light on the Dongfeng Fengguang 580 indicates a potential fault in the system. It is necessary to use a car computer diagnostic tool at a repair shop, where the issue will be addressed based on the fault code. Below are the relevant details: 1. Cause of the fault: The force applied to the brake pedal during driving is transmitted through the brake master cylinder piston to the brake wheel cylinders at each wheel, causing the brake pads to contact the wheels and achieve the braking effect. A lack of brake fluid is often accompanied by noticeably insufficient braking force, and in severe cases, a complete loss of braking power. Insufficient brake fluid can cause the brake pedal to sink, keeping the brake switch continuously powered, which results in the brake light staying on. 2. Powertrain: The Fengguang 580 is equipped with two engines: a 1.8-liter naturally aspirated engine and a 1.5-liter turbocharged engine. The 1.8-liter naturally aspirated engine delivers 139 horsepower and a maximum torque of 187 N·m, featuring multi-point fuel injection technology and an aluminum cylinder head with a cast iron cylinder block.

How to Handle the Loss of an ETC Card?

The procedure for handling a lost ETC card: 1. Bring the original and a copy of your ID card to a bank branch counter to apply for a card change, replacement, or reissuance; 2. Bring the original and a copy of your ID card to a bank branch, fill out an ETC service application form, and apply for the suspension of ETC functions, which will take effect within 24 hours from the time of acceptance; 3. After receiving the new card, go to the designated bank branch to activate the ETC function; 4. After receiving the new card, call the bank's credit card customer service to activate the card, and the ETC function will be automatically available within 5 working days. When replacing the card, be careful not to enable 'small amount contactless payment' to effectively avoid ETC fraud. After processing the ETC, the staff will attach the ETC device to the front windshield on-site. If it is removed or becomes loose and falls off, the anti-tamper guide rod will pop out, triggering the ETC electronic tag to lock and become unusable. In this case, you need to go to an ETC service point to unlock and reactivate it.
