GAC Trumpchi GS5's engine is independently developed and produced by Guangzhou Automobile Group Passenger Vehicle Co., Ltd., and is a domestically manufactured engine. The engine model of the GAC Trumpchi GS5 is 4A15M1, with a maximum horsepower of 169, maximum power of 124kW, and maximum torque of 265Nm. For daily maintenance of the GAC Trumpchi GS5 engine, the following methods can be used: Use lubricating oil of appropriate quality grade. For gasoline engines, SD--SF grade gasoline engine oil should be selected based on the additional devices of the intake and exhaust systems and usage conditions; for diesel engines, CB--CD grade diesel engine oil should be selected according to mechanical load, with the selection standard not lower than the manufacturer's requirements; Regularly change the oil and filter. The quality of any lubricating oil will change during use. After a certain mileage, performance deteriorates, causing various problems for the engine. To avoid failures, oil should be changed regularly based on usage conditions, and the oil level should be kept moderate; When oil passes through the fine pores of the filter, solid particles and viscous substances in the oil accumulate in the filter. If the filter is clogged and oil cannot pass through the filter element, the filter element may burst or the safety valve may open, allowing oil to bypass through the bypass valve and carry contaminants back to the lubrication area, accelerating engine wear and increasing internal contamination; Regularly clean the crankcase. During engine operation, high-pressure unburned gases, acids, moisture, sulfur, and nitrogen oxides from the combustion chamber enter the crankcase through the gap between the piston rings and cylinder walls, mixing with metal powder from component wear to form sludge. Small amounts remain suspended in the oil, while large amounts precipitate, clogging filters and oil passages, making engine lubrication difficult and causing wear; Regularly use radiator cleaner to clean the radiator. Removing rust and scale not only ensures normal engine operation but also extends the overall lifespan of the radiator and engine.

What transmission is equipped in the Geely Boyue?

Geely Boyue uses a transmission manufactured by Aisin. Founded in 1969, Aisin is a world-renowned professional developer and manufacturer of automotive automatic transmissions. In the field of automotive automatic transmissions, Aisin's products hold the world's highest market share. The Geely Boyue is equipped with a 7-speed wet dual-clutch transmission. A wet dual-clutch transmission refers to a dual-clutch transmission where the clutch plates are immersed in transmission fluid. There are two types of dual-clutch transmissions: dry and wet. When using the Geely Boyue's transmission in daily driving, pay attention to the following points: Do not delay changing the transmission fluid for extended periods. Prolonged failure to change the transmission fluid can damage internal components such as bearings and the transmission housing. Avoid coasting in neutral for long durations. While driving manual transmission vehicles, many experienced drivers may coast in neutral, but for automatic transmission vehicles, this can cause the transmission to overheat and may result in a jolt when shifting back into Drive (D). Never shift into Drive (D) or Reverse (R) before the vehicle comes to a complete stop. Some drivers, aiming for smoother operation, may shift into the opposite gear before the vehicle stops completely, which can severely damage the transmission gears and, over time, lead to gear grinding or other failures. Avoid frequently climbing steep slopes in Drive (D). When tackling steep inclines, automatic transmission vehicles may overheat due to high load or upshift too early, resulting in insufficient power. In such cases, use manual mode to lock in lower gears or switch to sport mode to protect the transmission. Do not tow the vehicle over long distances. If an automatic transmission vehicle breaks down, use a flatbed tow truck to move it onto the tow platform while the vehicle is in Neutral (N). Avoid using tow ropes or directly towing the vehicle.

Is It Serious to Forget to Close the Car Window in the Rain?

Forgetting to close the car window on a rainy day can be harmful, with specific consequences as follows: 1. After getting out of the car or when the vehicle is parked on the roadside: If the window is left open, thieves can easily steal valuable items such as wallets and mobile phones from the car without any effort. 2. The car interior gets soaked by rainwater: If you forget to close the window on a rainy day, by the time you remember, the car interior may already be flooded. Items inside the car soaked by rainwater are more likely to cause electrical issues, and vehicle repairs can also incur significant costs. Additional Information: Precautions for dealing with forgetting to close the car window on a rainy day: 1. If a large amount of water has entered the car, remember not to start the car at this time, as incorrect operations can cause secondary damage to the vehicle. 2. If the amount of water ingress is substantial, the only option is to first drain the excess water and then arrange for a tow truck to transport the vehicle to a 4S shop or repair shop.

What are the new regulations for diesel private vehicle inspections?

New inspection regulations now include 7 to 9-seater non-commercial mini and micro passenger vehicles (excluding minivans) within the 6-year exemption period. For non-commercial mini and micro passenger vehicles (excluding minivans) older than 6 years but less than 10 years, the inspection frequency has been adjusted from annual to biennial. Additional information: 1. Important notes: When handling vehicle inspections, please note that inspection deadlines are based on the vehicle's registration date. Since the inspection period often coincides with insurance expiration, if your policy expires within 15 days, you must renew your insurance before inspection. 2. Required documents for obtaining the inspection certificate: "Motor Vehicle License Application Form", "Motor Vehicle Inspection Record Form", and "Motor Vehicle Safety Technical Inspection Certificate". For company vehicles, please bring the official seal and provide a power of attorney during inspection. The agent must present their original ID card.

What are the reasons for high water temperature in small cars?

Reasons for high water temperature in small cars: 1. Excessive scale in the radiator and engine water jacket, leading to poor heat dissipation and rising water temperature; 2. Damaged thermostat causing it to fail to open, preventing coolant from smoothly entering the radiator to form a large circulation, resulting in rapid water temperature rise and boiling; 3. Damaged water pump or slipping drive belt causing poor water pump performance; 4. Insufficient antifreeze, leading to poor engine heat dissipation; 5. Cooling fan not rotating or rotating at low speed. Solutions for excessively high water temperature: 1. Clean the scale inside the engine promptly; 2. Inspect the thermostat or replace it; 3. Check the water pump's capacity and replace it if issues are found; 4. Add antifreeze to the required level as specified; 5. Check if the fan is not rotating or rotating at low speed.
