Dongfeng Kia K3's original battery model is CMF65L-BCI, with a rated voltage of 12V and a capacity of 60Ah. The specifications may vary for different model years, and owners can check the markings on the battery. The battery of the Kia K3 is located in the upper right corner of the engine compartment. Connect a dedicated testing instrument to read the current voltage value of the vehicle battery, then input the corresponding battery model code, and the testing instrument will display the battery status. The maintenance measures and precautions for car batteries are as follows: 1. Keep the battery clean and dry: Always keep the battery clean and dry, and ensure the vent holes are unobstructed. When oxides appear on the plates or terminals, they should be wiped clean and a small amount of grease applied to prevent corrosion. 2. Do not use the starter continuously: Each use should not exceed 5 seconds, with a 10-15 second rest between two starts. In severe winter, the battery discharge level should not exceed 25%, and in summer, it should not exceed 50%. 3. Charge regularly: A battery with sufficient electrolyte should not be left in a state of insufficient charge for a long time. It should be charged regularly, otherwise it may lead to scrapping. 4. Appropriate charging voltage: When charging the battery, the voltage should not be too low or too high.

Can unopened engine oil still be used after 10 years?

Unopened engine oil cannot be used after 10 years, as the shelf life of engine oil does not exceed 5 years. Shelf life of engine oil: Unopened engine oil generally has a shelf life of 5 years, while the remaining oil after opening has a shelf life of 1 year, and oil poured into the engine has a shelf life of 6 months. The main factor affecting the shelf life of engine oil is the storage conditions. The greater the temperature fluctuations and humidity in the storage environment, the faster the oil deteriorates. For every 1 degree Celsius increase in temperature, the lifespan of the oil is halved. Consequences of prolonged storage: If engine oil is stored for too long, the additives (such as antioxidants, detergents, and dispersants) will become ineffective, accelerating the oxidation process of the oil and causing it to lose its lubricating and protective properties. Instead, it may corrode the engine. If the oil has been stored for four or five years or even longer, check for abnormal odor, sediment, or unusual appearance (such as cloudiness or whitening) when opening the container. If any abnormal signs are present, it is best not to use the oil.

How Many Days Does It Take for a Traffic Ticket to Show Up?

For tickets captured by traffic cameras, it typically takes one week. For tickets issued by officers (parking tickets), it usually takes fifteen days. In special circumstances, the processing time may be extended. Handling Camera Violations: When dealing with traffic violations, the vehicle owner must bring their driver's license and vehicle registration to any traffic police station or administrative service center in either the location where the violation occurred or where the vehicle is registered. If the violation does not involve point deductions, the fine can be paid directly at an ICBC self-service payment machine. However, if points are deducted, the owner must first confirm the violation and point deduction at a traffic police station before paying the fine. For out-of-town violations, it is best to handle them at the traffic police station in the area where the violation occurred to avoid unresolved records if processed locally. Disputing Electronic Violations: If you disagree with an electronic violation, you can appeal to the traffic police department to request the removal of the violation record. If you are dissatisfied with the traffic penalty, you can apply for a review with the higher-level traffic police department or file an administrative lawsuit with the court.

Do I still need to turn on the fog lights when AUTO is on?

You still need to turn on the fog lights when AUTO is on, because the fog lights require a separate switch to be activated, provided that the small lights are already turned on. Conditions for turning on fog lights: According to traffic regulations, when visibility is between 100-200 meters, you must turn on the fog lights, low beams, width markers, and taillights, and the speed must not exceed 60 km/h, maintaining a distance of at least 100 meters from the vehicle ahead. When visibility is between 50-100 meters, you should turn on the fog lights, low beams, width markers, and taillights, with the speed not exceeding 40 km/h and maintaining a distance of at least 50 meters from the vehicle ahead. AUTO, also known as automatic headlights, is a light-sensitive control system installed by car manufacturers for user convenience. When the ambient light dims while driving, the headlights will automatically turn on, and they will turn off when the light brightens. The driver only needs to turn the light switch to the AUTO position, and the vehicle will automatically activate the high or low beams or turn them off based on the situation, which is very convenient for entering and exiting tunnels and garages.

Is Polishing Effective for Yellowing Repainted Car Paint?

Polishing is effective for yellowing repainted car paint and can improve the yellowing issue to some extent. Generally, the yellowing of car paint is caused by infrequent car washing, prolonged exposure to ultraviolet rays from the sun, or color differences between the touch-up paint and the original paint. Solutions: Wash the car at professional facilities: Professional car washes use specialized cleaning agents that can remove yellowing areas and protect the paint. Using inferior cleaning agents may worsen the yellowing. Polishing: Polishing can remove the yellowed layer on the paint surface. The outer layer, exposed to air and UV rays for a long time, tends to yellow, while the inner layers remain unaffected. Simply polishing the surface can address this issue. Repainting: Repainting can make the yellowed areas blend in with the rest of the car, reducing color differences. Preventive measures for paint yellowing: Regular car washing: Keep the vehicle clean to prevent dirt buildup, which can settle or corrode the paint surface, causing irreversible damage. Sun protection: Park the car in underground parking lots or use a car cover. Regular waxing: Periodic waxing can effectively prevent paint oxidation.

What is the load capacity of a 3.8-meter truck?

3.8-meter trucks generally have a load capacity of around 2 tons. Here are specific details about truck types: 1. Truck Categories: In logistics and transportation, trucks remain crucial vehicles with varying lengths and shapes. Generally, trucks are classified into flatbed trucks, high-rail trucks, box trucks, semi-trailers, high-low deck trucks, refrigerated trucks, semi-enclosed trucks, container trucks, wing-body trucks, detachable trailer trucks, hazardous material trucks, tanker trucks, extra-high/extra-long trucks, hydraulic telescopic trucks, etc. 2. Truck Lengths: Classification by length includes multiple types such as 3800mm, 4200mm, 5800mm, 6800mm, 7200mm, 9600mm, 12500mm, and 14000mm. The vehicle's length determines its load capacity - longer bodies enable greater payloads. For trucks, heavy and medium-duty cargo vehicles and semi-trailers must not exceed 4000mm in height from ground level, while container-type trucks cannot surpass 4200mm. Overheight or overloaded trucks compromise driver safety and increase accident risks during high-speed operation.
