It is due to poor paintwork. It could be a localized color difference defect in the paint surface that existed when the vehicle left the factory, caused by uneven paint spraying. The spots, covered by the glossy enamel paint, generally cannot be removed and do not have a significant impact, nor will they expand on their own. Below is an introduction to the functions of automotive paint: 1. Protective Role: As an outdoor means of transportation, cars are constantly exposed to various corrosive agents in the atmosphere, such as humidity, oxygen, industrial atmosphere, sulfur dioxide, carbon dioxide, and nitrogen dioxide. Automotive paint forms a firmly adhered continuous film on the car, preventing chemical or electrochemical reactions between the surface and surrounding media, thereby stopping or delaying the occurrence and development of damage to the vehicle. 2. Decorative Role: Coating the car surface with various bright and colorful paints makes it look beautiful, lively, and pleasant, giving people an aesthetic feeling and showcasing the vehicle's personality. A full-bodied paint film can also enhance the car's grade. 3. Identification Role: The color of automotive paint can serve as a mark for the type and function of the vehicle, such as green for postal vehicles and white for ambulances. Other Functions: Some automotive coatings can improve comfort and sealing, preventing noise caused by vibrations.

What to do if a car tire is leaking?

If a car tire leaks while driving, you need to turn on the hazard lights, pull over, and replace the spare tire. After replacing the spare tire, control the speed and do not exceed 80km per hour. Find a tire shop to repair the tire before putting it back on, as the spare tire cannot be used for a long time. The following are the steps for replacing a tire: 1. After parking and turning off the engine, use the handbrake; 2. Place heavy objects in front of and behind the wheels to prevent sliding, and place a triangular warning sign behind the car; 3. Use a wrench to loosen the screws of the tire to be replaced in a diagonal manner; 4. Place the jack on the side where the tire needs to be replaced and lift the vehicle to a certain height; 5. Remove the screws and take off the tire; 6. Replace with a spare tire or new tire, and tighten the screws in a diagonal manner; 7. Release the jack to lower the vehicle and ensure that the screws and nuts are tightened.

How to solve the problem of Changan CS75 not starting?

Changan CS75 not starting can be solved by: 1. Check the spark plugs and replace them if necessary; 2. If it's caused by a dead battery, charge the battery; 3. If it's due to blocked fuel flow, place the vehicle in a warm environment or clean the fuel system; 4. If the ignition system is not working properly, unscrew the spark plugs and clean the oil stains between the electrodes; 5. If it's caused by valve sticking, drip some engine oil into the combustion chamber. Taking the 2021 Changan CS75 Glory Million Edition 280T Manual Elite as an example, its body dimensions are 4650mm in length, 1850mm in width, and 1715mm in height, equipped with a 1.5T turbocharged engine and a 6-speed manual transmission.

What Are the Symptoms of a Clogged Oil Pan Screen?

Oil pan screen clogging symptoms include a noticeable decrease in engine power, which may lead to engine shutdown. The oil pan is the lower half of the crankcase, also known as the lower crankcase. Its function is to seal the crankcase as the outer shell of the oil reservoir, preventing impurities from entering, and to collect and store the lubricating oil flowing back from the friction surfaces of the diesel engine, dissipating some heat and preventing lubricating oil oxidation. The oil pan is mostly made of stamped thin steel plates, equipped with internal oil stabilizing baffles to avoid violent splashing caused by engine jolts, facilitating the sedimentation of lubricating oil impurities. A dipstick is installed on the side to check the oil level, and additionally, an oil drain plug is located at the lowest point of the oil pan bottom.

What Causes the Thumping Sound Near the Rear Wheels of a Car?

The causes of a thumping sound near the rear wheels of a car are: 1. Issues with the shock absorber, spring, or the rubber bushings at the junction of the spring and shock absorber; 2. Loose screws in the chassis, rear axle, or tires—check and tighten all potentially problematic screws; 3. Hardened dust covers rubbing over time, producing noise. Shock absorbers can be categorized based on damping materials into hydraulic and pneumatic types, with another variant being adjustable damping shock absorbers. Shock absorbers primarily function to dampen oscillations from spring rebound after absorbing shocks and to mitigate impacts from the road surface. When traversing uneven roads, while the suspension springs filter out road vibrations, the springs themselves still undergo reciprocating motion, and shock absorbers are designed to suppress this spring oscillation.

How to Solve the Abnormal Noise When Starting a Cold Highlander?

The solution to the abnormal noise when starting a cold Highlander is: 1. If the noise is caused by aging or loosening of the engine mount pad, simply replace the engine mount pad; 2. If the engine oil is too viscous and has poor fluidity, there may be operational noise and slight vibration in the short term, and slight noise when the moving parts come into contact. In this case, replacing the engine oil with new one will solve the problem. Taking the Highlander 2021 2.0T Two-Wheel Drive Elite 5-Seater as an example, it is a mid-size SUV launched by GAC Toyota, with a length, width, and height of 4890mm, 1925mm, and 1720mm respectively, and a wheelbase of 2790mm. It is equipped with a 2.0T turbocharged engine, with a maximum power of 162kw and a maximum torque of 350nm, matched with a 6-speed automatic transmission.
