"dexostm" refers to Mobil, specifically Mobil 1 full synthetic engine oil 5W-30 SN grade (4L) for gasoline engines. Below is relevant information: 1. Introduction: Engine oil refers to lubricating oil specifically used in internal combustion engines. In addition to lubrication, it also has functions such as cleaning, rust prevention, and cooling. The base oil used in modern engine oils is composed of hydrocarbons, poly-alpha-olefins (PAO), and poly-internal olefins (PIO), all of which are organic compounds consisting solely of carbon and hydrogen. 2. Function: Engine oil, also known as engine lubricant, is hailed as the "blood" of a car. It serves to lubricate, clean, cool, seal, and reduce friction in the engine.

I understand that Mobil dexos1 engine oil is actually a synthetic oil with a specific certification standard, designed specifically for General Motors' gasoline engines. dexos1 is a specification introduced by GM to ensure that the oil meets standards in terms of cleanliness, wear resistance, and fuel economy. I've seen it work smoothly in vehicles like Chevrolet or Buick, reducing engine carbon buildup and extending engine life. In daily use, it performs stably in both high and low-temperature environments, such as quick starts in winter and no boiling in summer, which prevents many potential issues. If you drive an American brand car, using it can extend the oil change interval to over 10,000 kilometers, saving time and money. From a professional perspective, I recommend checking the vehicle manual for compatibility, as dexos1 complies with emission regulations and helps reduce exhaust pollution, making it an ideal choice for modern vehicle maintenance.

What Causes the Squeaking Noise in the Edge Door Stopper?

Below are the reasons for the squeaking noise: Reason: The door hinge axis and the stopper rotation axis are severely misaligned; it is recommended that the angle between the door hinge axis and the stopper rotation axis must be controlled to less than 3 degrees, and the door hinge should be monitored. Improper Installation: Some squeaking noises are caused by improper installation, and others result from wear due to improper assembly during use or door sagging. Troubleshooting such issues is relatively simple: loosen all the stopper mounting screws, open and close the door repeatedly more than 5 times, and then tighten the screws to resolve the problem. Automobile: According to the latest national standard in China, "Terms and Definitions of Motor Vehicles and Trailers," an automobile is defined as a non-track vehicle powered by an engine, with four or more wheels, mainly used for: transporting people and/or goods; towing vehicles that carry people and/or goods; or for special purposes.

What is the fuel tank capacity of the 2017 Haval H6 in liters?

2017 Haval H6 has a fuel tank capacity of 58 liters, as officially announced. The 2017 Haval H6 diesel version uses No. 0 fuel, while other versions use No. 92 fuel. The fuel consumption per 100 kilometers ranges from 6.7 to 8.3L, and a full tank can cover a distance of 698 to 865km. During daily driving, it is necessary to always pay attention to the remaining fuel in the tank. Generally, the fuel level is observed through the fuel gauge inside the car. If there are no other issues, the fuel level will be accurately reflected on the gauge. The fuel gauge typically has 5 to 6 segments, and it is advisable to refuel when there are about 2 segments left to avoid running out of fuel midway. During actual refueling, the amount of fuel may exceed the marked capacity. This is because the fuel tank capacity marked by the car manufacturer is from the bottom of the tank to the safe limit, and there is still some space from the safe limit to the tank opening. This space is designed to allow the fuel to expand when the temperature rises without overflowing the tank. If the fuel is filled up to the tank opening during refueling, the actual refueling amount may exceed the marked fuel tank capacity.

What is the fuel tank capacity of the Changan CX70 in liters?

The fuel tank capacity of the Changan CX70 is 48 liters, as officially announced. Owners who have purchased the Changan CX70 can also check this information on the vehicle's configuration sheet. The Changan CX70 uses 92-octane gasoline, with a fuel consumption of 7.9L per 100 kilometers. A full tank of fuel allows for a driving range of approximately 607 kilometers. During daily driving, it is essential to monitor the remaining fuel level in the tank. This is typically observed through the fuel gauge inside the vehicle. Under normal circumstances, the fuel level will be accurately reflected on the gauge. The fuel gauge usually has 5 to 6 segments. It is advisable to refuel when only 2 segments remain to avoid running out of fuel midway. During actual refueling, the amount of fuel added may exceed the nominal tank capacity. This is because the manufacturer's specified capacity is measured from the bottom of the tank to the safe fill level, leaving some space between the safe fill level and the tank opening. This space ensures that the fuel can expand when temperatures rise without overflowing. If fuel is added up to the tank opening, the actual refueling volume may exceed the nominal tank capacity.

How many points are deducted for changing lanes over a solid line in a tunnel?

Changing lanes over a solid line in a tunnel results in a deduction of 3 points. Below is an introduction to the relevant content about crossing lines: Solid lines: Whether it's a single yellow line or a double yellow line, as long as it's a solid line, crossing is strictly prohibited, such as overtaking, turning, or making a U-turn. Under normal driving conditions, you should not cross the line. Dashed lines: Whether it's a single yellow line or a double yellow line, as long as it's a dashed line, you can overtake or make a U-turn when it's safe to do so. Single yellow lines are generally used on roads with four or fewer lanes (including bicycle lanes), while double yellow lines are typically used on wider roads. At an intersection with a red light, you can make a U-turn over a solid line only when the left-turn signal is green. If there is no dedicated U-turn signal light and no prohibition sign for U-turns, it means the intersection allows U-turns. Unlike left-turning vehicles, U-turning vehicles can proceed during a red light, provided they do not interfere with the normal passage of other vehicles.

What are the symptoms of a faulty charcoal canister solenoid valve in the Magotan?

When the charcoal canister solenoid valve in a vehicle is damaged, it prevents the charcoal canister from opening and closing properly. This directly leads to increased fuel consumption. You may hear a "clicking" sound intermittently during non-idle conditions, experience hesitation when accelerating by pressing the throttle, and notice unstable idle speeds with poor acceleration—all of which are symptoms of a faulty charcoal canister. Below are the details: 1. How to diagnose a faulty charcoal canister solenoid valve: Since the charcoal canister solenoid valve operates intermittently, you can diagnose it by disconnecting the hose from the solenoid valve and waiting for it to activate. Then, partially block the valve with your hand. If you feel the valve continuously sucking air or not responding at all, it indicates the valve is damaged. A properly functioning solenoid valve should intermittently suck air. If it doesn't, the valve is faulty and should be replaced to improve performance. 2. Main working principle of the charcoal canister solenoid valve: The activated charcoal absorbs fuel vapor. When the car starts, the solenoid valve controls the charcoal canister to open, releasing the absorbed fuel vapor back into the intake manifold for combustion, thereby saving fuel and reducing emissions. If the solenoid valve is damaged and cannot open or close the canister, fuel vapor cannot enter the cylinders for combustion. If the valve is stuck open, it causes an overly rich air-fuel mixture, leading to incomplete combustion. Most of the unburned fuel is expelled, resulting in fuel wastage and increased fuel consumption.
