The BJ40 diesel engine is equipped with a 2.0T diesel engine from Yuchai. BJ40 diesel engine appearance: The Beijing Auto BJ40, which has a hardcore SUV style in appearance, features right-angle designs in many places, providing excellent off-road capability. The switches for the windows and central locking are designed as toggle levers, giving a very retro feel. Configuration: In terms of body, chassis, and configuration, it is basically the same as the gasoline version, but it is matched with a more powerful Champion Edition transfer case. It adopts a part-time four-wheel-drive system, which is essential for pure off-road vehicles, and the transfer case has also been comprehensively upgraded, ensuring stable performance and durability.

The BJ40 diesel engine generally uses the Cummins brand. BAIC has equipped this off-road vehicle with Cummins' ISF series, such as the ISF2.8, which delivers a power output of over 150 horsepower and strong torque, making it particularly suitable for off-road climbing and complex road conditions. From my driving experience, this engine can generate significant power at low RPMs, reducing sluggishness during acceleration, and it also complies with the China VI emission standards, making it more environmentally friendly. However, the engine noise can be slightly louder, especially noticeable at high speeds, but this is a common issue with diesel engines. If you're considering the BJ40, the diesel version's advantage lies in its fuel efficiency, with fuel consumption as low as around 8 liters per 100 kilometers, saving a considerable amount on fuel costs compared to the gasoline version. Of course, choosing an engine also depends on maintenance. Cummins engines are known for their stable quality, generally exhibiting low failure rates even after 100,000 kilometers, but it's recommended to regularly check the air filter to prevent dust buildup.

Most of the BJ40's diesel engines are Cummins-branded. I've been driving this car for a while, and the power feels incredibly robust—it surges forward the moment you step on the accelerator, making steep climbs during off-roading effortless. As for the sound, there's a bit of a hum, noticeable when driving at night, but you get used to it. I think BAIC chose Cummins for its reliability and durability. In my daily commutes and weekend road trips, I haven't encountered any issues, and the maintenance intervals are long, basically just once a year. In terms of fuel consumption, it averages just over 8 liters per 100 kilometers, which is both cost-effective and eco-friendly, outperforming many gasoline SUVs. If you're concerned about maintenance, tasks like changing the oil or filters are straightforward, and most repair shops can handle them at a reasonable cost. Overall, opting for this engine significantly boosts the BJ40's value for money, especially for long-distance travel or wilderness adventures, giving you full confidence.

Do I need to turn on ETC every time?

ETC does not need to be turned on every time; it is generally required only during activation and top-up. ETC activation method: Insert and remove the ETC card twice consecutively until the electronic tag screen displays "Bluetooth is on." If it shows "Tag invalid" when inserted twice without the electronic tag attached, this is normal and does not affect activation. Alternatively, you can press the button on the top of the electronic tag to enable Bluetooth. Turn on your phone's Bluetooth, open the corresponding mobile app (usually with a download QR code on the electronic tag), and enter the device activation interface. Click "Device Connection" and wait patiently for the "Connection Successful" prompt. Once connected, upload a photo of the vehicle's front to complete activation. ETC installation positions: For small vehicles such as cars and minivans, the ETC card and OBU device are installed in the upper middle part of the front windshield. For large vehicles like trucks and buses, the installation position is in the lower middle part.

Where is the car fuse located in the vehicle?

Here are the locations of car fuses: 1. Since there are many electronic devices in a car, and each electronic device is equipped with an independent fuse, engineers design the vehicle to concentrate the fuses in one place for easier replacement and maintenance in the future. This place is called the fuse box. Generally, there are two fuse boxes in a vehicle, one located inside the engine compartment; the other is located on the left side of the steering wheel or inside the glove box. 2. The fuse box located inside the engine compartment is responsible for the normal operation of external vehicle electrical devices, such as headlights, horn, onboard computer, air conditioning compressor, windshield washer motor, etc., ensuring circuit safety. 3. The other fuse box, located on the left side of the steering wheel or inside the glove box, is responsible for the normal operation of internal vehicle electrical devices, such as power windows, cigarette lighter, electric seats, and airbags. Generally, the fuse box in the engine compartment is located on the driver's side, but some models may have it on the opposite side. However, fuse boxes are usually designed to be on both sides of the engine compartment for convenient and timely replacement.

Will the Audi A4L particulate filter get clogged?

Audi A4L particulate filters can get clogged. When the accumulated particulates reach a certain level, the particulate filter will automatically ignite to burn and expel them, which is known as the 'regeneration' process of the particulate filter. The general procedure for cleaning the particulate filter using cleaning equipment is as follows: First, remove the particulate filter and place it on the testing equipment. Then, use the probe on the equipment to check the clogging condition of the particulate filter. Next, preheat the cleaning equipment to 300°C, place the particulate filter inside, and adjust the temperature to 600°C for oxidation treatment of the carbon deposits. After the treatment is completed, cool the particulate filter and then use a high-pressure blowing tool for cleaning. Once the cleaning is done, use professional measuring equipment to record the data of the particulate filter. After completing the above steps, reassemble the particulate filter and install it back into the vehicle.
