Changan Oushang A800 is equipped with a Honeywell second-generation 1.5T turbocharged engine. This engine can be considered as the top power configuration among domestic family MPVs, delivering outstanding power output with a maximum power of 115kW and a maximum torque of 225N·m. Here are some details about the Changan Oushang A800: 1. The Honeywell second-generation turbocharged engine used in the Changan Oushang A800 features high energy efficiency, rapid response, lightweight design, and high-temperature resistance. The engine starts working at 1000 rpm; at 1500 rpm, it delivers torque output comparable to a 1.8L naturally aspirated engine; and in the 2000 rpm range, it achieves a maximum torque output of 225N·m, equivalent to the power output of a 2.4L naturally aspirated engine, which is rare among family MPVs. 2. In terms of fuel supply: The Changan Oushang A800 adopts the more advanced direct fuel injection technology, which offers higher combustion efficiency and stronger power performance compared to multi-point fuel injection. This is why the Changan Oushang A800 has an advantage in engine parameters. 3. Regarding cylinder block material: The Changan Oushang A800 uses an aluminum construction. This gives the Changan Oushang A800 an edge in power performance. For example, during test drives of the 1.5T + 6MT model, the most impressive aspects of its power performance are its strong acceleration from a standstill, steady mid-range acceleration, and adequate high-speed acceleration.

How to Program a Car Key Remote?

If you lose your car key, you can get a replacement at a car 4S store or an auto parts mall. Here are the relevant details: 1. Generally, when a new car is delivered, it comes with two keys—one for regular use and the other as a spare. 2. Every vehicle has a built-in anti-theft code. A 4S store will reset this code when programming a new key, while an auto parts mall will only copy the existing code. Here is additional information about car key functions: 1. Car key vehicle locator function. 2. Using the car key to close windows after turning off the engine. 3. Using the car key to automatically open the trunk. 4. Using the car key remote to open windows. 5. Using the car key to unlock only the driver’s door.

Where Are the Car Airbags Located?

Car airbags are primarily distributed in three areas within the vehicle: the front (driver and passenger seats), the sides (front and rear rows), and the roof. These areas are typically marked with the "SRS/AIRBAG" airbag label. Below is more information about car airbags: 1. Theoretically, airbags may deploy only when the vehicle impacts a fixed object within approximately 60 degrees of the front center at a speed higher than 30 km/h. However, due to differences in vehicle design, deployment conditions may vary by model. For example, the Santana 2000 upgrade version will only deploy airbags when the vehicle suffers a severe impact within 30 degrees on either side of the front. 2. Airbags are actually a double-edged sword. If the airbags fail to deploy when they should or deploy under normal driving conditions, both scenarios can be fatal. Using substandard, defective, aged, or refurbished airbags can lead to irreversible consequences.

Can 95 gasoline be mixed with 92?

92 gasoline and 95 gasoline cannot be mixed. 92 gasoline and 95 gasoline have different octane ratings. If these two types of fuel are mixed, the combustion in the vehicle's engine may not be as complete as when using only one type, potentially leaving behind a large amount of combustion residues. More details are as follows: 1. If a vehicle is consistently fueled with a mixture of 92 and 95 gasoline over a long period, the engine may accumulate a significant amount of carbon deposits, affecting its power, increasing fuel consumption, and even disrupting the engine's normal operation. 2. Occasionally mixing gasoline once may not cause significant harm. However, when refueling next time, it is necessary to drain the mixed fuel and refill with the correct octane rating. 3. If gasoline is frequently mixed, the consequences could be severe. The vehicle may experience issues such as clogged fuel injectors, worsening carbon deposits, and abnormal fuel consumption.

Where is the spark plug located in a car?

Spark plugs are installed on the side or top of the engine. In earlier models, spark plugs were connected to the distributor via ignition cables, but over the past decade or so, most passenger car engines have switched to a design where the ignition coil is directly connected to the spark plug. How spark plugs work: The ground electrode of the spark plug is connected to the metal shell, which is in turn threaded into the engine block via the cylinder head. The insulator primarily serves to isolate the metal shell from the center electrode. The terminal nut is the part of the spark plug that contacts the high-voltage coil. When current passes through the terminal nut and the center electrode, it ionizes the medium between the center electrode and the ground electrode, creating a spark that ignites the air-fuel mixture in the cylinder. Spark plug replacement intervals: Under normal maintenance conditions, spark plugs should be replaced every 40,000 to 60,000 kilometers. However, this can vary depending on the brand and engine type, so it's recommended to follow the owner's manual. Here are some general guidelines for replacement: Platinum spark plugs should be replaced at 40,000 km, standard nickel alloy spark plugs at 20,000 km, and iridium spark plugs at 60,000-80,000 km.

Where to Place the Temporary Parking Sign in the Car?

Temporary parking signs should be placed behind the front windshield on the passenger side of the car. More details are as follows: 1. Firstly, to make it easier to observe the temporary parking sign, it should be placed in a very visible location. This position is undoubtedly below the front windshield of the car. Secondly, it should be placed without obstructing the driving view. Therefore, the most suitable place for the temporary parking sign is behind the front windshield on the passenger side. 2. There are also some temporary parking signs on the market that can be placed outside the front windshield, but it is best not to use them. Due to issues with fixation, short-term use may not be a problem, but after prolonged exposure to sun and rain, the adhesive's stickiness will definitely decrease significantly.

How to Charge a Dead Car Battery?

Car batteries can be recharged using methods such as jump-starting. Below are specific methods to charge a dead car battery: 1. Jump-starting Method: Connect the dead battery to another car's battery. Once power is transferred, the engine can be started, and the internal alternator will charge the battery while the engine is running. 2. Using a Battery Charger: At home, you can use a battery charger to recharge the battery. Typically, a household car battery has a capacity of around 60Ah, requiring a charging current of one-tenth of the battery capacity—6A. When charging at home, it's important to monitor the charging time. Most people charge overnight, with an average charging time of about 8 hours. If the charging current is too high, the battery may charge quickly, but overcharging can occur, leading to water loss, overheating, and even battery damage. Poor-quality batteries may even explode under such conditions.
