The Peugeot 408 is a compact car launched by Dongfeng Peugeot on January 25, 2010. Here are the relevant details: Introduction to the 408: The Peugeot 408 still uses the mainstream engines from DPCA, with two displacement options: 2.0L and 1.6L. The 2.0L model will be the main focus of the 408. With the launch of the 408, the 307 will continue to target the entry-level A-segment market with its 1.6L engine, allowing the 307 and 408 to work together, greatly enriching Dongfeng Peugeot's product lineup in the golden displacement market of 1.6L-2.0L. Configuration requirements: The Peugeot 408 also features improvements to its transmission. The manual transmission has been adjusted with revised gear ratios, making gear shifts clearer and more engaging. The shift mechanism includes added counterweights for smoother operation, balancing fuel efficiency and driving pleasure. The 4AT transmission has been upgraded with a more efficient torque converter, an improved hydraulic system, and recalibrated shift control software. It offers both automatic and manual modes (the automatic mode includes three settings: Economy, Power, and Snow, switchable via a button). It also incorporates a hill logic mode, divided into steep uphill/downhill and gentle uphill/downhill modes, for better gear control. Safety has also been enhanced.

I'm the owner of a Peugeot 408, and this car performs really well in my daily use. The new 408 is a crossover sedan launched by Peugeot, combining the comfort of a sedan with the convenience of an SUV in its design. It's agile for city driving and stable on long trips. Mine is the gasoline version, with ample engine power and fuel consumption of around 6L/100km, which is quite fuel-efficient. In terms of space, the trunk is large enough to easily fit suitcases and shopping bags, and the rear seats offer plenty of room—my family doesn't feel tired even after long rides. The driving assistance features, like automatic braking and blind-spot monitoring, enhance safety. Overall, it offers great value for money with reasonable maintenance costs. I've driven it for two to three years without major issues, just occasional delays in software updates. If you're looking for a practical and stylish commuting tool, this car is worth considering.

Is the Ingenium engine developed by Chery?

The Ingenium engine is produced by Jaguar Land Rover at their engine plant in Wolverhampton and is developed by Chery. The engine model used by Jaguar is the PT204, with a maximum horsepower of 200, a maximum power of 147KW, a maximum power speed of 5500rpm, and a peak torque of 320N.m. For daily maintenance of Jaguar's engine, the following methods can be used: Use lubricating oil of the appropriate quality grade. For gasoline engines, select SD--SF grade gasoline engine oil based on the additional devices in the intake and exhaust systems and usage conditions; for diesel engines, choose CB--CD grade diesel engine oil 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 grade of lubricating oil will change during use. After a certain mileage, performance deteriorates, leading to various engine problems. To avoid malfunctions, change the oil regularly based on usage conditions and maintain an appropriate oil level. When oil passes through the fine holes 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, it may burst the filter element or open the safety valve, 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 particles from component wear to form sludge. A small amount remains suspended in the oil, while a large amount precipitates, clogging the filter and oil passages, making engine lubrication difficult and causing wear. Regularly use a radiator cleaner to clean the radiator. Removing rust and scale not only ensures the engine operates normally but also extends the overall lifespan of the radiator and engine.

Why Does the Exhaust Pipe Smell Like Gasoline?

The reasons for the exhaust pipe smelling like gasoline: 1. There is an issue or malfunction in the car's ignition system, such as spark plug leakage, weak high voltage, or weak spark, etc.; 2. Incomplete or insufficient combustion of the fuel-air mixture. Reasons for car smoke: 1. Black smoke is mainly due to poor combustion; 2. Blue smoke is mainly caused by burning engine oil, severe wear between the piston rings and cylinder liners, poor sealing, and more engine oil entering the combustion chamber, which also results in blue smoke; 3. White smoke is mainly liquid vapor. Water is one of the combustion products. During cold starts, when the vehicle's temperature hasn't risen yet, the water vapor condenses when it meets the cold exhaust pipe, forming white smoke. This is normal and a common occurrence of white smoke. However, under ordinary circumstances, white smoke might be caused by improper refueling, water mixed into the fuel, or damage to the cylinder, allowing coolant to enter the cylinder through gaps, which is then expelled in gaseous form under high temperatures.
