The suitable engine oil for the Teana is the erg brand. erg engine oil offers high cost-performance, strong acceleration, and a very quiet engine. Taking the 2021 Teana as an example, it belongs to the mid-size car category with body dimensions of: length 4901mm, width 1850mm, height 1450mm, wheelbase 2825mm, fuel tank capacity 61.3l, and curb weight 1456kg. The 2021 Teana features a MacPherson strut front suspension and a trapezoidal control arm multi-link rear suspension. It is equipped with a 2.0L naturally aspirated engine, delivering a maximum horsepower of 156ps, maximum power of 115kw, maximum torque of 197nm, and is paired with a continuously variable transmission.

As a Teana owner, I've been driving this car for over three years and feel that choosing the right motor oil brand is crucial. The original Nissan oil is certainly good, and I recommend using a 5W-30 full synthetic oil, as its viscosity is suitable for engine protection. I personally use Mobil 1, and after changing the oil, the engine noise is significantly reduced, and the power delivery is smoother. If you're on a budget, Shell Helix Ultra is also a great choice—it leaves fewer deposits and has excellent anti-carbon buildup properties. Don't forget to change the oil regularly; I suggest checking the oil level every 5,000 kilometers to avoid engine damage from prolonged use. Additionally, selecting the right viscosity for environmental temperature changes is important. For example, using a higher viscosity oil in hot summer conditions can better prevent wear. In terms of brands, Castrol EDGE or Total QUARTZ offer good value for money with extended oil change intervals, saving you time. In short, prioritize OEM certification—other major brands are safe and reliable, but avoid no-name brands to prevent damage to your car.

How to Match a Car Key Remote?

Generally, matching a car remote key requires code pairing, meaning the original car key has a "code" and there is a corresponding "code" in the car. Since the new key does not have a chip, you need to remove the chip from the old key and install it into the new remote key to achieve full functionality.

Is the steering wheel turned too early or too late when parking in one go?

Turning the steering wheel too early is the case when parking in one go. Lack of oil in the shock absorber's plain bearing: Listen for sounds near the hood to see if they are coming from the top of the shock absorber. If the noise is from the plain bearing of the shock absorber, you can apply some grease to the plain bearing. If the noise persists after greasing, it will need to be replaced. Loose stabilizer bar bushings: Check if the stabilizer bar bushings are loose or damaged. Loose or damaged stabilizer bar bushings can cause noise not only when turning the steering wheel but also when driving on uneven roads. Loose bushings can be fixed by adding shims, but damaged ones must be replaced.

What Causes Difficulty in Engaging First Gear?

Difficulty in engaging first gear is often due to a clutch malfunction, where the clutch separation travel is insufficient, leading to incomplete clutch disengagement and inability to shift into gear. Common clutch issues and solutions include clutch slippage, incomplete clutch disengagement, and shuddering during start-up. The car clutch is located within the flywheel housing between the engine and the transmission, secured to the rear plane of the flywheel with screws. The output shaft of the clutch serves as the input shaft of the transmission. Solution: The driver can press or release the clutch pedal as needed to temporarily disconnect or gradually engage the engine and transmission, thereby cutting off or transmitting the engine's power to the transmission. Method for starting in first gear: To start in first gear, first fully depress the clutch, shift into first gear, slowly release the clutch while gently applying the throttle, and the car will begin to move. Manual transmission cars use a manual shift mechanical transmission (also known as manual transmission, MT) to adjust speed. This involves manually moving the gear lever to change the gear engagement position inside the transmission, altering the gear ratio to achieve speed variation. The gear lever can only be moved when the clutch is depressed. Function of the clutch: The clutch allows gradual engagement between the engine and the transmission, ensuring smooth vehicle start-up. It temporarily disconnects the engine from the transmission to facilitate gear shifting and reduce impact during shifts. During emergency braking, it disengages to prevent overload of the transmission and other drivetrain components, providing a protective function.

Is the Radiation from New Energy Vehicles Really High?

New energy vehicles do not emit significant radiation, with most electric vehicles' actual radiation levels below 10uT. Here is an introduction to new energy vehicles: Classification of New Energy Vehicles: Hybrid Vehicles: Equipped with batteries that can conveniently recover kinetic energy during downhill driving. In bustling urban areas, the internal combustion engine can be shut off, allowing the vehicle to be driven solely by the battery, achieving zero emissions. Pure Electric Vehicles: Relatively simple and mature technology, can be charged wherever there is an electricity supply. Fuel Cell Vehicles: Zero or near-zero emissions, reduce water pollution caused by oil leaks, lower greenhouse gas emissions, and operate smoothly and quietly. Advantages of New Energy Vehicles: Save fuel energy, typically using natural gas, petroleum gas, hydrogen, or electricity as power sources, reducing exhaust emissions and effectively protecting the environment. Electric vehicles produce no exhaust and no pollution; hydrogen-powered vehicles emit only water, causing no environmental pollution. High efficiency, as new energy vehicles generally adopt new technologies and structures to enhance efficiency. Disadvantages of New Energy Vehicles: Charging can be difficult. In China, where charging infrastructure is not yet fully developed, charging is a major challenge for electric vehicles. The lack of public charging stations significantly impacts the mobility of electric vehicles. Charging is relatively slow. Although fast-charging stations are now available, it still takes about 2-3 hours to fully charge a new energy vehicle. If you don’t have a home charging station, waiting for the vehicle to charge in public can be inconvenient, and in case of emergencies, the slow charging speed of pure electric vehicles becomes a notable drawback.

Why is the clutch pedal unstable?

An unstable clutch pedal is caused by incorrect posture, improper timing for clutch control, and lack of mastery in lifting the clutch. The specific reasons are as follows: Incorrect posture: Generally, an unstable clutch pedal is due to improper sitting posture or incorrect foot positioning. The correct method is to firmly place the heel of the left foot as a pivot point and use the ball of the foot to press or lift the pedal. Whether pressing all the way down or lifting to the highest point, the heel should ideally remain on the ground. Additionally, sitting posture should be standardized. The primary key to pressing the clutch correctly is to place the toes on the clutch pedal with the heel naturally resting on the ground, ensuring that when the clutch pedal is fully pressed, the thigh and calf form a natural curved angle. Avoid pressing the clutch pedal with the foot suspended in the air, as prolonged use of this method can lead to foot fatigue. For shorter individuals, even with the correct posture, if the seat is not adjusted forward enough, the leg may not be long enough to fully press the clutch pedal while keeping the heel in place. In such cases, only the toes press the pedal, which can easily lead to insufficient force and slipping. Therefore, seat adjustment is also crucial. Failure to find the right timing for clutch control: Generally, when turning or going uphill, the clutch should be lifted slightly more. Whether in the semi-engaged position or during normal driving, the height of the clutch pedal should be slightly higher than on flat roads when driving or starting on slopes. Lack of mastery in lifting the clutch technique: For manual transmission cars, it is essential to master the "one fast, two slow, three engage" technique. This means that when entering the semi-engaged state, the clutch should be lifted slowly and preferably held steady for one or two seconds. If the speed feels slow, the clutch can be lifted even more slowly, but it should still be stabilized for one or two seconds before releasing.

How Long After Drinking a Glass of Alcohol Can You Drive?

It is best to wait 24 hours before driving. Drunk driving refers to the act of driving when the blood alcohol content of the vehicle driver is greater than or equal to 20mg/100ml but less than 80mg/100ml. Alcohol metabolism rate: The average adult metabolizes alcohol at a rate of about 15 milliliters per hour, but this varies from person to person and is influenced by factors such as blood alcohol concentration, gender, and age. Between 30 to 45 minutes after drinking, the blood alcohol concentration in the body reaches its peak. Generally, after consuming one bottle of beer, alcohol can still be detected in the blood within 2 hours. Penalties for drunk driving: Drunk driving will result in the revocation of the driver's license, criminal liability, and a 5-year ban from obtaining a motor vehicle driver's license. If the drunk driving involves operating a commercial vehicle, in addition to license revocation and criminal liability, there is a 10-year ban from obtaining a driver's license, and even after re-obtaining the license, the individual is prohibited from driving commercial vehicles. Penalties for drinking and driving: If a major traffic accident occurs due to drinking and driving, and it constitutes a crime, criminal liability will be pursued, the driver's license will be revoked, and the individual will be banned from driving for life. Drinking and driving results in fines, a 6-month suspension of the driver's license, and for repeat offenses, 10 days of detention and fines, along with license revocation. Drinking and driving a commercial vehicle leads to 15 days of detention, fines, license revocation, and a 5-year ban from obtaining a motor vehicle driver's license.
