New car break-in period speed should not be too fast, pay attention to maintenance during the break-in period. Specific precautions are as follows: Pay attention to new car maintenance: Develop good driving habits, regularly drive to the auto shop for maintenance. Avoid overloading, engine oil and filters should be replaced regularly, Tires require regular maintenance. Check engine oil and coolant: During the new car break-in period, frequently check whether the engine oil, coolant, and battery electrolyte are sufficient. If any shortage is found, replenish it promptly. After reaching a certain mileage (during or after the break-in period), go to the service station in time for vehicle inspection and maintenance, replace engine oil, oil filter, etc., and conduct a comprehensive inspection of the chassis system.

Where is the OBD port located on the Jinbei minibus?

Jinbei Haise OBD port is generally located inside the trim panel below the steering wheel, near the driver's knee area. It serves as an interface for connecting external diagnostic equipment, allowing connection to automotive maintenance computers for monitoring vehicle systems and repairing software faults. This port can also be used to connect specialized computers for modifying hidden vehicle functions. Introduction to Jinbei Haise OBD: The OBD device monitors multiple systems and components including the engine, catalytic converter, particulate filter, oxygen sensors, emission control system, fuel system, EGR, etc. The OBD interface typically features a 16-pin female connector with a trapezoidal shape. Some vehicle models have protective covers over the OBD port, with common port colors being black, white, or blue.

What are the reasons for the automatic transmission warning light to illuminate?

Automatic transmission warning light may illuminate due to the following reasons: Oil leakage: Oil seeping from the transmission housing or oil pan. One reason is aging seals causing poor sealing; another reason is manufacturing defects leading to sand holes in the housing. Engine stalling when shifting: Engine stalls when shifting into D or R gear. This fault may be caused by a damaged lock-up solenoid valve or a stuck lock-up control valve. Gear lock-up: Incorrect input/output signals from the transmission, or malfunctioning components/circuits. Sometimes it can also be caused by communication issues between the transmission computer and other system computers.

Why does the brake make a creaking sound and fail to stop on snowy roads?

It is normal for the brake to make a creaking sound and fail to stop on snowy roads, as this is the ABS (Anti-lock Braking System) in action. The function of ABS: The Anti-lock Braking System (ABS) prevents the wheels from locking up during braking by automatically controlling the braking force, ensuring the wheels maintain a rolling and sliding state (with a slip ratio of around 20%). This maximizes the traction between the wheels and the road surface. Considerations when purchasing a car: Although ABS can shorten braking distance, different types of ABS systems vary significantly in price due to differences in their components and structure. Therefore, when purchasing a car, one should not only consider the price but also the type of ABS system installed.

Scrapping Standards for Flood-Damaged Vehicles

When a vehicle cannot meet the national safety technical standards for in-use motor vehicles after repair and adjustment, it must be scrapped. Below is relevant information: Introduction: A flood-damaged vehicle refers to a car that has been submerged in water, typically involving the engine and transmission being soaked, with water levels exceeding the wheels and body seats, and prolonged contact between the vehicle's underbody components and water. Hazards of Flood-Damaged Vehicles: The dangers of water-damaged vehicles are significant. If a motor vehicle is submerged, it can easily lead to rusting of body components, shortening its lifespan and reducing safety performance. For example, water damage can cause corrosion and rusting of the vehicle's wiring, leading to sudden engine stalling or spontaneous combustion due to short circuits while driving, with potentially catastrophic consequences.

Does a car need antifreeze?

Car needs antifreeze, and the antifreeze also needs to be replaced regularly, with a replacement cycle generally every two years or 40,000 kilometers. The functions of antifreeze: When parking in cold winter, it prevents the coolant from freezing and cracking the radiator or freezing the engine cylinder block or head. In summer when the temperature is high, it can effectively prevent boiling and avoid overheating. The hazards of lacking antifreeze: It may cause the engine or radiator to freeze and crack, leading to engine failure. It also affects the radiator's cooling efficiency, failing to achieve the necessary cooling effect, disrupting normal circulation, generating high temperatures, and in severe cases, causing engine burnout.

Is an appointment required for vehicle annual inspection?

Vehicle annual inspection does not require an appointment, you can directly go to the vehicle management office to handle it. Making an appointment for the annual inspection can effectively save the owner's valuable time. Vehicle Annual Inspection: Vehicle annual review (Vehicles-examined) is also called vehicle annual inspection, which refers to the annual inspection of motor vehicles. Vehicle annual inspection process: The vehicle annual inspection process refers to the fixed procedure for vehicle inspection conducted annually. Annual Inspection Regulations: If a vehicle is found by traffic police on the road without annual inspection, the owner will be fined or the vehicle will be impounded.
