The main reasons for the frequent damage to the Geely Emgrand water pump are as follows: 1. Aging of the water pump sealing ring; 2. Over-tightening of the engine combination belt; 3. Long-term failure to replace the antifreeze; 4. The water pump reaching the end of its service life. The following are the symptoms of water pump damage: 1. Coolant "boiling over." Damage to the water pump weakens or even stops the cooling circulation, leading to the coolant "boiling over." 2. Coolant leakage near the water pump area of the engine. Coolant leakage leaves traces of coolant color on the water pump ventilation holes, resulting in symptoms such as elevated water temperature due to insufficient coolant. 3. Abnormal noises from the water pump during engine operation. Abnormal noises from the water pump may be caused by internal foreign objects or bearing wear.

What is the wading depth of a Subaru Forester?

The maximum wading depth of a Subaru Forester is 600mm. The wading depth of a Subaru Forester is determined by the height of the vehicle's chassis, which is the ground clearance listed in the model's parameter configuration table. Generally, the greater the ground clearance, the higher the chassis, and the higher the safety factor when passing through waterlogged roads. Therefore, in terms of safe wading depth, the advantages of off-road vehicles and SUVs are obvious. However, for most compact and small cars with low chassis, the position of the vehicle's air intake should be used as a benchmark when passing through waterlogged roads. If the air intake of a Subaru Forester is below the water level during wading, water will be sucked into the engine's cylinders. Since water cannot be compressed like air, it can cause severe damage to the engine's mechanical components (such as connecting rods, pistons, crankshafts, etc.). Therefore, the wading depth must not exceed the height of the engine's air intake. The height of the engine's air intake, and thus the maximum wading depth, can also be increased by installing a snorkel. If wading is unavoidable, the following safe and correct operations should be performed: Before wading, always turn off the auto start-stop function to prevent the vehicle from automatically restarting after stalling in water, which could cause severe engine damage due to water ingress. Assess the underwater road conditions based on the passage of preceding vehicles and choose an appropriate entry point. Observe the path taken by other vehicles and follow it at a low speed, avoiding sudden acceleration or deceleration. On roads prone to waterlogging, observe warning water level markers, trees, or the wheels and doors of other vehicles as reference points to judge the water depth before deciding whether to proceed. Be aware of your vehicle's safe wading depth. If the water depth exceeds half the height of the tires or the engine's air intake, do not proceed and choose an alternative route instead.

Where is the appropriate place to install ETC?

For small cars, the ETC device is generally installed on the upper middle part of the front windshield, while for large vehicles such as trucks and buses, the installation position is on the lower middle part. The suitable installation height should be no less than 1.2 meters and no higher than 2.5 meters, with an installation angle between 30 and 90 degrees. For vehicles with factory-installed or aftermarket explosion-proof film, which may affect the signal transmission of the microwave communication link, the ETC device should be installed in the microwave window area. ETC stands for Electronic Toll Collection. To apply for an ETC device, you need to provide the original and photocopy of the vehicle owner's valid ID card and vehicle registration certificate. If the application is handled by a proxy, the proxy's valid ID card is also required. The photocopy of the vehicle registration certificate should include the page with the most recent annual inspection seal. Additionally, a bank card for deducting highway tolls is required, and the vehicle must be registered under the name of an individual aged between 18 and 60. Here are some precautions for installing ETC: Do not obstruct the driver's view. It is best to install the ETC device behind the rearview mirror: Many car models have a steeply inclined windshield, which can reduce the driver's field of vision. Installing the ETC device without considering this may increase the driver's blind spots. Installing it on the right side behind the rearview mirror can help avoid obstructing the view. Do not interfere with charging: The ETC electronic tag consumes power but generally does not require charging or battery replacement because it has a solar panel on the back for self-charging. Therefore, during installation, avoid the blackened areas on the windshield and positions that may block the solar panel. Once installed, do not remove it arbitrarily: The button in the middle of the adhesive is an anti-tamper lever connected to a switch. After installation, the windshield will press the anti-tamper lever in. If the device is removed arbitrarily, the lever will pop out and trigger the switch, locking the electronic tag and rendering it unusable. In such cases, you will need to visit an ETC service point to unlock it. This mechanism is designed to prevent multiple vehicles from sharing one device. When using ETC, note the following: The ETC transaction sensing range is 8 meters. To prevent the ETC device of the vehicle in front from malfunctioning, maintain a distance of more than 10 meters from the vehicle ahead to avoid automatic toll deduction for the preceding vehicle. The speed limit for ETC lane recognition is 20 kilometers per hour. Driving too fast may result in failure to read the vehicle's device information, leading to toll deduction failure. If a debit card is linked to the ETC, insufficient balance may also cause toll deduction failure.

Car Shows Yellow Engine Light

There are several reasons why a car's engine light turns yellow: 1. Dirty engine cylinders with carbon deposits: After a certain period of use, the engine will inevitably accumulate carbon deposits. These deposits can alter the engine's design parameters and, due to their unstable nature and heat retention, can cause uncontrolled ignition, leading to engine knocking. 2. Poor engine combustion: Oxygen sensors are installed in the engine to monitor combustion conditions. If the combustion state is poor, the engine warning light will illuminate.

What is the difference between 95 gasoline and 92?

95 gasoline and 92 have the following differences: 1. Different octane numbers: 92 gasoline is 92% isooctane and 8% n-heptane; 95 gasoline is 95% isooctane and 5% n-heptane. 2. Different amounts of carbon deposits: The same amount of 92 gasoline and 95 gasoline will produce different amounts of carbon deposits, but the difference is not significant. 3. Different prices: Due to the different octane content, 95 gasoline with a higher octane number is more expensive than 92 gasoline. 4. Different anti-knock properties: The higher the octane number, the better the anti-knock performance.

Why Does the Engine Noise Increase After Changing the Oil?

There are several reasons why the engine noise may increase after an oil change: 1. The oil does not meet the standard or is overfilled: When the oil in the engine cylinder is too full, it creates unnecessary resistance to the crankshaft's rotation, affecting power output, increasing fuel consumption, and allowing more oil to enter the combustion chamber. This leads to increased carbon deposits in the combustion chamber, raising piston movement resistance and reducing engine power. 2. Choosing the right oil viscosity: It's essential to select the appropriate oil based on the engine and vehicle manual. 3. Carbon deposits: Moderate carbon buildup can affect performance because old oil becomes thinner with use, leading to more carbon deposits over time.

What do Manufacturer Suggested Retail Price and Owner Transaction Price mean?

Manufacturer Suggested Retail Price and Owner Transaction Price are defined as follows: 1. Manufacturer Suggested Retail Price: This refers to the selling price of a product to consumers. Due to the application of value-added tax, consumption tax, and customs duties, some dealers may shift these taxes from being external to internal, artificially inflating profits and causing abnormally high product prices. To curb such practices, manufacturers provide a reference selling price after considering various factors, known as the Manufacturer Suggested Retail Price. 2. Owner Transaction Price: This is the final amount paid for the bare car after repeated negotiations with the car dealer. The transaction price is the actual price at which the car is sold.
