I've researched the Southeast DX3 quite a bit. It mainly comes equipped with Mitsubishi's 1.5L engine technology, commonly seen in naturally aspirated 4A91 and turbocharged 4A91T variants. This engine is designed to be quite sturdy and durable, making it suitable for urban commuting, with an output of around 115 horsepower. Fuel consumption is decent, averaging about 7-8 liters per 100 km in city driving. However, after long-term use, some models might encounter minor issues like fuel pump or belt problems, so it's recommended that new owners perform regular maintenance checks. Overall, the Mitsubishi engine paired with Southeast's chassis tuning offers a smooth and worry-free driving experience, making it a cost-effective choice—especially practical for salaried workers, not flashy but reliable.

What's the matter when the EPS light is on and the steering is intermittently heavy?

The reason why the EPS light is on and the steering is intermittently heavy is due to a problem with the electric power steering system. Here is an introduction to relevant knowledge about car lights: 1. Function: Car lights are various traffic lights installed on the car to ensure safe driving. They are divided into two categories: lighting lights and signal lights. 2. Classification: headlights, fog lights, reverse lights, license plate lights, dome lights, instrument lights, and trunk lights. 3. Precautions: Among all the precautions for new car inspections, checking car lights is a relatively simple step. However, because the installation of car lights is more prone to problems during the overall installation process of the car, it is also necessary to take this step seriously during inspection.

Will I be notified when the used vehicle file transfer is mailed?

Generally, the DMV will not specifically notify you when the used vehicle file transfer is mailed, but the courier service will send an SMS or make a phone call. Here is some relevant information about used vehicle file transfers: 1. Processing time: It usually takes about three working days to complete the file transfer. The files need to be mailed by the DMV to the registration location's DMV, which takes approximately 3-5 days, so the entire outbound transfer process takes about a week. 2. Points to note: Check whether the vehicle's tires have been replaced and if the tire model matches the one on the vehicle license. Verify if the vehicle has any mortgages or overdue inspections. Major modifications to the vehicle are also not allowed for transfer. If any of the above situations occur, the transfer cannot proceed normally, so it's advisable to inspect the vehicle and its documents before processing the used vehicle transfer.

What does BMW GPF mean?

BMW GPF is a ceramic filter installed in the gasoline engine emission system. The following are the specific details about the ceramic filter: 1. Function: It can capture particulate emissions before they enter the atmosphere. 2. Working principle: The filtration mechanism of GPF is basically the same as that of diesel engine's DPF. The exhaust gas flows through the porous wall at a certain velocity, a process called "Wall-Flow." 3. Composition: The wall-flow particulate filter consists of honeycomb-shaped ceramics with a certain pore density. By alternately blocking the honeycomb-shaped porous ceramic filter body, the exhaust flow is forced to pass through the pore wall, and the particulate matter is captured and filtered through four methods: diffusion, interception, gravity, and inertia.

What does the first free maintenance at a 4S shop include?

The first free maintenance at a 4S shop includes the following aspects: changing the engine oil and oil filter, cleaning the air filter; checking whether the levels of various fluids are normal, inspecting the generator belt and wiper blades for damage; checking whether the tire pressure is normal and whether the tires have uneven wear, bulges, or damage; inspecting the chassis, including: brake pads, brake discs, connecting rods, ball joints, CV joints, and any scratches; checking all switches in the vehicle; and ensuring that the lights are functioning properly. Estimated time: Completing all tasks takes approximately 2 hours. Items to bring for the first maintenance include: driver's license; maintenance manual; warranty manual; owner's ID card; vehicle registration certificate; and the vehicle purchase invoice. Take these to the designated first maintenance facility for the vehicle. Note: Make an appointment with the 4S shop in advance. The first maintenance refers to the initial service after a new car has been driven. The specific timing varies by vehicle, usually after driving 1,000 to 3,000 kilometers. The car must undergo the first maintenance in a timely manner, neither early nor delayed. The completion of the first maintenance marks the end of the car's break-in period, allowing it to be driven under standard load and normal speed as required. The timing for the first maintenance is calculated from the date of vehicle pickup. There are two indicators for the first maintenance: mileage and time. Whichever comes first is the standard. The following inspections and replacements must be completed during the first maintenance for a new car: changing the engine oil and cleaning the three filters (oil filter, fuel filter, and air filter); checking the coolant level to ensure it is normal; inspecting the vehicle's brake and clutch fluid levels; checking the power steering fluid level and for any leaks at the fluid line connections; inspecting the generator, air conditioning, water pump, and belts for aging and tension; and checking tire pressure and wear, inflating the tires as needed, or rotating them if there is uneven wear. When changing the engine oil, the oil filter must also be replaced. The choice of oil must refer to the "Vehicle Use and Maintenance Manual," as different vehicle models require different oil grades. Maintenance precautions: Do not wash the interior of the car with water: Many people clean their cars during holidays, washing the body with water and wiping it with a cloth. It is important to note that the interior of the car should not be washed directly with water. If the floor mats are dirty, use a vacuum cleaner or remove them to clean with a brush and detergent, dry them, and then put them back. The rubber mats under the driver's floor have many drainage holes. Water that enters will not dry but will flow through the holes to the transmission and other parts, causing corrosion. The best practice is to use a vacuum cleaner for cleaning, followed by wiping with a cloth to prevent water accumulation. Do not mix different brands of antifreeze: If the antifreeze in the car is low, it is recommended to drain the antifreeze and refill it with the same brand. Different brands of antifreeze have different chemical properties. The corrosion inhibitors in one brand may corrode those in another. Do not mix different brands of antifreeze to avoid unnecessary trouble. Do not lubricate tire bolts and nuts: When bolts on a car become rusty, some people apply oil to make them work smoothly again. However, lubricating the bolts and nuts on the wheels can pose safety risks. At high speeds, the bolts and nuts may loosen or even fall off, leading to driving hazards. Do not press the accelerator when starting an electronic fuel injection (EFI) car: The starter of an EFI car differs from that of a conventional car. Its fuel injection control system can automatically adjust the fuel supply based on the starter's temperature and operating conditions, ensuring smooth starting.
