I've studied the powertrain of the Changan Oshan X5, which offers two engine options: the Blue Whale NE1.5T turbocharged engine and a 1.6L naturally aspirated engine. The 1.5T version is packed with power, delivering 132 kW maximum power and 300 N·m torque, paired with a 7-speed wet dual-clutch transmission that's particularly suitable for friends who enjoy driving pleasure. In urban areas, the power response is quick for overtaking, and the Blue Whale platform technology ensures high combustion efficiency. The 1.6L naturally aspirated version, paired with either a 5MT or CVT, is much smoother, focusing on economy and practicality. Personally, I think this powertrain combination balances performance and fuel consumption well, and the thermal management design ensures quick cold starts in northern winters. Maintenance costs are relatively friendly, with longer intervals for spark plug replacements.

What do the three gears of EBP mean in a vehicle?

EBP is a fuel-saving switch, especially common in trucks. The purpose of this switch is to help vehicle owners save more fuel during daily use, improving overall fuel economy and preventing unnecessary fuel waste during unloaded conditions. To address the fuel efficiency issues of trucks, engineers developed the EBP system. To adapt to varying road conditions and engine output states, the EBP system is divided into three gears, allowing the engine to adjust between power and fuel economy. These three gears are: 1. E mode: The most economical mode, typically used when the vehicle is unloaded, aiming to reduce unnecessary engine power output for fuel savings. 2. B mode: Balances power and fuel economy, usually used under half-load conditions, slightly reducing fuel economy to release some power. 3. P mode: Maximizes engine power, typically used when fully loaded, where the engine's operation no longer prioritizes fuel economy but instead focuses on delivering stronger power output.

Where is the headlight switch on the Passat?

There is a rotary knob on the lower left side of the steering wheel. Turn it to the top position (AUTO) to turn on the headlights. Turn the headlight switch to the right to activate the low beams, push the turn signal lever outward for high beams, and lift it inward for the flash function. Car headlights are installed at both ends of the front of the vehicle and are used for illumination during nighttime or in low-light driving conditions. The headlight assembly also includes position lights (also known as parking lights), which are used during evening or nighttime driving to indicate your vehicle's position to other road users.

How to Clean the Catalytic Converter on a BMW 3 Series?

BMW 3 Series catalytic converters are cleaned using the drip method. This method involves connecting a plastic hose to the engine's vacuum solenoid valve. The air pressure in the hollow tube draws the cleaning agent from the infusion bottle into the engine. As the cleaning agent exits through the exhaust pipe, it cleans the catalytic converter. The catalytic converter is the most important external purification device installed in a vehicle's exhaust system. It converts harmful gases such as CO, HC, and NOx emitted from the vehicle's exhaust into harmless carbon dioxide, water, and nitrogen through oxidation and reduction reactions. A catalytic converter generally consists of four parts: the shell, vibration damping layer, substrate, and catalyst coating. Shell: Made of stainless steel to prevent oxide scale from falling off, which could clog the substrate. Vibration damping layer: Composed of gaskets or wire mesh pads, it serves to seal, insulate, and secure the substrate. To protect the substrate from damage caused by vibration, thermal deformation, and other factors, the gasket is made of expanded mica and aluminum silicate fibers, bonded together with adhesive. Substrate: Made of honeycomb-shaped ceramic material, though many are also made of metal (including stainless steel). Catalyst: Composed of precious metals such as platinum, rhodium, and palladium, sprayed onto the substrate to form the purifying agent.

What brand is SP-SPORT-MAXX tire?

SP-SPORT-MAXX is a run-flat tire launched by Dunlop, a Japanese tire brand under the Sumitomo Group. Originally founded in Japan by the British Dunlop Company, it was later taken over by the staunchly right-wing Sumitomo Group during World War II when Japan declared war on Britain. The predecessor, the British Dunlop Company (DUNLOP), was a renowned British brand known for applying high-tech achievements to sports equipment design, helping athletes reach their personal limits. It represents modernity, trendiness, and avant-garde style, and has long been a brand favored and endorsed by world-class athletes. Dunlop Tires has launched a new tire model, the SP-SPORT-MAXX 050+, specifically designed for luxury sedans. It is a comprehensive tire product focusing on wet grip and comfort. The average tread hardness of the Dunlop SP-SPORT-MAXX 050+ is 58HA, the groove hardness is 58HA, and the sidewall hardness is 42HA. It features a carcass reinforcement structure with more than two layers of high-strength nylon, effectively reducing energy loss during driving and distributing ground pressure evenly to the tire shoulders, optimizing the contact shape and enhancing high-speed handling performance. Dunlop tires are often used under complex and demanding conditions, enduring various deformations, loads, forces, and temperature extremes during driving. Therefore, they must have high load-bearing capacity, traction, and cushioning performance, as well as high wear resistance and flex resistance, along with low rolling resistance and heat generation. They directly contact the road surface and work with the vehicle's suspension to absorb shocks during driving, ensuring good ride comfort and smoothness. They also ensure excellent adhesion between the wheels and the road, improving traction, braking, and off-road capability while bearing the vehicle's weight. Dunlop tire maintenance methods: Increase awareness of tire safety and inspect tires regularly. Regularly correct wheel balance; unbalanced wheels can cause high-frequency oscillations at high speeds, leading to uneven tire wear. Perform tire rotation periodically. To ensure even wear on all tires of the same vehicle, rotate the tires every 5,000 kilometers. In daily use of Dunlop tires, pay attention to the following: Regularly check the tire surface for cracks, deformations, or other defects. As tires wear, the tread grooves gradually become shallower. If the tread is worn flat, it loses its drainage and anti-slip functions, significantly reducing the vehicle's performance. Small cracks can also pose a risk of blowouts at high speeds. Additionally, promptly remove pebbles from the grooves. Park on level ground whenever possible. Avoid parking on roads with thick, sharp, or pointed stones. Do not park near or in contact with petroleum products, acids, or other materials that may degrade rubber. After parking, avoid turning the steering wheel, as this accelerates tire wear. Do not splash water to cool tires. In hot weather or after high-speed driving, tires can overheat, and tire pressure may increase. In such cases, park to allow the tires to cool naturally. Never release air to reduce pressure or splash water to cool the tires, as this can cause abnormal aging of the tread rubber. Avoid sudden braking. Minimize frequent or hard braking to prevent accelerated tread wear due to dragging between the tires and the road.

What is the process for registering a new company car?

Company new car registration process is roughly the same as for private vehicles. Bring all required documents, and if an agent is handling the registration, they need to bring a power of attorney and the company seal. After purchasing a new car, you need to pay the vehicle purchase tax. Generally, the 4S store will notify you in advance of the required materials, such as the original ID card of the vehicle owner. Bring all the required documents to the vehicle management office for processing. Provide the organization code certificate, and if an agent is handling it, a written authorization from the vehicle owner is required. Complete the registration and payment, then collect the vehicle registration certificate and driving license at the certificate issuance window. Proceed to the license plate production area to receive the plate number, and finally, fix the plate to complete the process.

How to Tell Which Way the Car Body is Leaning?

If you are driving on the road, the simplest way to judge whether the car body is straight is by observing the central divider line or the edge line of the road. When parking, if there are no other cars nearby, you can check whether the rear of the car is parallel to the road edge or the parking line by looking through the rearview mirror. You can also observe from the front of the car. When parking, if the front part of the car is perpendicular to the road edge, it indicates that the car body is straight. Otherwise, you need to readjust the parking position. If moving forward and you notice the car body leaning to one side, steer the wheel in the opposite direction, and remember to return the wheel by the same amount you turned it.
