The symptoms of throttle valve failure in the Baojun 560 include: unstable engine idle, persistently high idle speed that does not decrease, difficulty starting the engine; insufficient engine power, poor acceleration performance, and unstable operation; black smoke from the car's exhaust pipe, and increased fuel consumption. Cleaning the throttle valve: The throttle valve is the most important component of the engine system. Whether the car accelerates smoothly is closely related to the cleanliness of the throttle valve. If the throttle valve is dirty, the owner can clean it themselves. Steps for cleaning the throttle valve: When cleaning the throttle valve, it does not need to be disassembled, but the sealing parts of the intake must be thoroughly cleaned. The idle speed motor must be removed to be cleaned properly. After cleaning, reassemble according to the disassembly procedure. Initialization of the throttle valve: After installation, the throttle valve must be initialized. Initialization is necessary after cleaning the throttle valve because the computer adjusts the throttle opening based on memory functions. Due to previous blockage by oil sludge, the computer automatically adjusts the throttle opening to ensure normal air intake.

Experiencing throttle issues with the Baojun 560, common symptoms include difficulty starting the car, often requiring multiple attempts to ignite. During driving, acceleration feels weak, struggling to climb slopes as if the throttle isn't responding. The engine shakes erratically at idle and frequently stalls, especially embarrassing at red lights. Fuel consumption also spikes significantly, with a full tank not lasting long. The malfunction indicator light often comes on, typically due to sensor issues or carbon buildup. Delaying repairs may damage other engine components. I recommend regular throttle cleaning, especially for city driving which is prone to carbon buildup. Addressing it early avoids extra costs and inconvenience.

Typical symptoms of throttle valve failure on the Baojun 560 include abnormal power output and unstable operation. There is noticeable acceleration lag, with delayed response when speeding up; idle speed fluctuates violently, occasionally stalling; fuel consumption is significantly higher than usual. It may be accompanied by stored fault codes and the illumination of the yellow engine light. The root cause is often a faulty throttle position sensor or carbon buildup blockage, affecting the air-fuel mixture ratio. A simple diagnosis can be done using an OBD tool to read the codes and confirm the issue. During daily driving, avoiding sudden acceleration can help mitigate the problem. Remember to inspect every 20,000 kilometers, and clean if there is excessive carbon buildup.

The most dangerous symptom of a faulty throttle in this car is sudden stalling while driving, especially the terrifying loss of power at high speeds. It takes multiple attempts to start, and the idle is extremely rough with a significant increase in fuel consumption. Ignoring it may lead to more serious failures, even leaving you stranded on the roadside. Regular carbon deposit checks can prevent such issues. If you notice early signs, get it repaired as soon as possible.

What happens if the temperature of automotive urea is too high?

Excessive temperature in automotive urea can lead to an increase in free alkali and free ammonia content. Specific details about automotive urea are as follows: 1. Storage temperature for urea: During transportation, urea should be protected from light and high temperatures. The optimal transportation and storage temperature should be maintained between -5°C and 25°C. 2. Low temperature: Automotive urea will crystallize when the temperature drops, expanding in volume by 7%. Storage rooms should be kept below 90% of the storage capacity. 3. High temperature: High temperatures can cause urea to decompose. Generally, the storage temperature of urea is related to its storage duration.

Is the License Plate Fee Mandatory to Pay at the 4S Store?

It is not mandatory. Below is the relevant information: Regulations: According to Article 9 of the "Consumer Rights and Interests Protection Law of the People's Republic of China," consumers have the right to independently choose goods or services. Consumers have the right to independently select the operators providing goods or services, choose the types of goods or methods of services, and decide whether to purchase any product or accept any service. When making independent choices, consumers have the right to compare, evaluate, and select. Considerations: Shop around—only by spending more time and effort to compare can you avoid being taken advantage of. If the license plate fee seems too high, try purchasing from another 4S store. If all stores charge a license plate fee, try to negotiate the fee down to the minimum possible. This is the only way to ensure you don’t overspend unnecessarily.

Why Does the Car Shake More When It Gets Hotter?

It may be caused by carbon deposits in the engine or throttle body. Below is a related introduction to the reasons for car shaking: 1. Ignition system issues: Check the working condition of the spark plugs, high-voltage wires, and ignition coils. Poor performance of the ignition system or faulty spark plug firing can also lead to this type of problem. The solution is to check if the spark plugs have excessive carbon buildup and replace them if necessary. 2. Unstable oil pressure: If you have already cleaned the engine carbon deposits, cleaned the throttle body, replaced the oil gasket and spark plugs, but still notice the car shaking at idle, check the fuel supply pressure and the intake pressure sensor. Abnormal fuel pump pressure or incorrect readings and poor performance of the intake pressure sensor can cause the car to shake. The solution is to check the oil pressure and replace the components if necessary.

Does Parking and Listening to Music Drain the Battery?

Parking and listening to music does drain the battery. Here are some related points about parking and listening to music: 1. Idling while listening to music: Although idling while listening to music does not use the battery's power, prolonged idling can easily lead to carbon buildup in the engine. Statistics show that idling while listening to music consumes an additional 2-3L of fuel per hour on average, costing around ten dollars per hour. 2. Precautions when turning off the car: Turn off the air conditioning, and check if the cigarette lighter is off when shutting down the engine. The cigarette lighter is not only used for lighting cigarettes but also powers devices like GPS, dash cams, and air purifiers. If these devices remain powered when the engine is off, it can cause "battery drain." It is advisable to avoid listening to music or using any electrical devices when the engine is off.

Can I Take Subject 4 Exam During Mid-Autumn Festival?

No. Mid-Autumn Festival is a national holiday when the vehicle management offices are closed. Below is relevant information about Subject 4: Introduction: Subject 4, also known as Subject 4 theory test or driver's theory test, is part of the motor vehicle driver's license assessment. Official Name: After the implementation of "Order No. 139 of the Ministry of Public Security of the People's Republic of China", Subject 3 exam was divided into two parts. In addition to the road test, a safety and civilization knowledge test was added, commonly referred to as "Subject 4", which assesses "driving ethics". Since this test is conducted after Subject 3, people commonly call it Subject 4 exam. However, there is officially no "Subject 4" in the formal terminology.
