I've been driving the Dongfeng Fengshen AX7 for over two years now. It's equipped with a 1.6-liter turbocharged engine, which I heard was co-developed with Peugeot using PSA technology. It delivers around 150 horsepower, providing plenty of power for overtaking, with a 0-100 km/h acceleration time of about 9 seconds. For daily city commuting, the fuel consumption is around 8 liters per 100 km, and it drops to 6.5 liters on the highway, which is quite economical. On weekends, when I take my family out, the power is stable without any shaking, and the spacious rear seats are comfortable. Friends who've ridden in it say the engine is more reliable than my previous Haval H6's. It hasn't had any issues over the years, just regular maintenance like oil changes. The downside is a bit of noise at startup, but it smooths out after a minute. Overall, I recommend considering this SUV for its high cost-performance ratio.

Can engine oils from different brands be mixed?

Engine oils from different brands should not be mixed. Mixing engine oils from different brands can cause chemical reactions, reduce lubrication effectiveness, and produce acidic or alkaline compounds that accelerate corrosion of engine components. The hazards of mixing engine oils from different brands include: 1. Abnormal smoke from the exhaust pipe; 2. Accelerated sludge buildup in the oil; 3. Reduced sealing performance of piston rods or piston rings, leading to discoloration or damage; 4. Increased likelihood of engine malfunctions; 5. Severe wear of pistons and cylinder walls. The functions of engine oil include: 1. Lubrication and friction reduction; 2. Assisting in cooling and temperature reduction; 3. Sealing and leak prevention; 4. Rust and corrosion prevention; 5. Shock absorption and buffering.

Can Old and New Coolants Be Mixed?

Old and new coolants cannot be mixed. Here are the relevant explanations: 1. Reason: Different coolants contain varying chemical components such as rust inhibitors, anti-corrosion agents, anti-foaming agents, and colorants. Mixing them can easily lead to chemical reactions, causing hazards like sedimentation and scaling. Therefore, the same brand of coolant should be used for replenishment. 2. Precautions: Be cautious when selecting and adding coolant. Choose a coolant with the appropriate ratio based on specific conditions. Then, add the selected coolant to the radiator until the liquid level reaches the specified position.

Passenger transport vehicles: Annual inspection within 5 years; every 6 months after exceeding 5 years. 2. Trucks: Large and medium-sized non-passenger transport vehicles require annual inspection within 10 years; every 6 months after exceeding 10 years. 3. Small and mini non-commercial vehicles: Passenger vehicles require inspection every 2 years within 6 years; annual inspection after exceeding 6 years; every 6 months after exceeding 15 years. 4.

Is It Normal for a New Car's Hood to Lack Protective Film?

It is normal for a new car's hood to lack protective film. Below are relevant explanations: 1. Reason: The protective film on a new car's hood is typically removed by the dealership, as vehicles are washed before delivery. 2. Precautions: Verify the displacement, manufacturing date, VIN (Vehicle Identification Number), and engine number. Then inspect the exterior for any flaws in the paint, tires, headlights, taillights, etc. Enter the driver's cabin to check if the seats are intact and defect-free, and ensure the floor is clean with proper sealing. Test door handles for smooth, secure, and reliable operation when opening/closing, and examine window/door seals for damage.

What Causes High Idle Speed in Small Cars?

High idle speed in small cars can be attributed to the following reasons: 1. Idle switch not closing: When the idle contact is disconnected, the ECU determines that the engine is under partial load. At this time, the ECU calculates the fuel injection amount and timing based on signals from the air flow sensor, crankshaft position, and engine speed. However, since the engine is actually operating under idle conditions with less air intake, this results in an overly rich air-fuel mixture and increased engine speed. 2. Overly rich air-fuel mixture: When the ECU receives a signal from the oxygen sensor indicating an overly rich mixture, it reduces the fuel injection amount and increases the opening of the idle control valve, which then leads to an overly lean mixture and decreased engine speed. Conversely, when the ECU receives a signal indicating an overly lean mixture, it increases the fuel injection amount and decreases the opening of the idle control valve, resulting again in an overly rich mixture and increased engine speed.
