DC charging piles and AC charging piles differ in the following aspects: 1. Charging time: DC charging piles take 1.5 to 3 hours for a full charge, while AC charging piles require 8 to 10 hours. 2. On-board charger: DC charging piles can charge directly, whereas AC charging piles need to utilize the vehicle's on-board charger for charging. DC charging piles, commonly known as "fast chargers", are fixed installations outside electric vehicles, connected to the AC grid, and provide DC power to non-vehicle electric vehicle power batteries. AC charging piles, commonly referred to as "slow chargers", are also fixed installations outside electric vehicles, connected to the AC grid, but they provide AC power to the vehicle's on-board charger (i.e., the charger fixed on the electric vehicle).

What is the reason for the intermittent illumination of the temperature gauge?

The reason for the intermittent illumination of the temperature gauge is a lack of coolant. A slightly low coolant level can trigger temporary warnings. Prolonged high temperatures can reduce the lubrication effectiveness of the engine oil, leading to wear and tear of internal engine components. If the red light comes on, do not continue driving. When the temperature warning light illuminates, you should stop the vehicle and check—note that you should stop but not turn off the engine. Park the vehicle in a safe area and keep the engine running at idle speed to allow heat dissipation by opening the hood. If you see steam rising from the hood, observe first and avoid opening it hastily to prevent burns. After parking, first check if the coolant level in the auxiliary tank is too low. If the coolant level is below the 'min' line, add coolant. If coolant is not available, you can temporarily use mineral water as a substitute, but remember to replace it with new coolant afterward.

Does an oil change take 1 hour?

It takes about 1 hour. Here is relevant information about engine oil: 1. Oil viscosity (using 0W-20 as an example): (1) The 0W in 0W-20 indicates the engine starting characteristics of this oil. Using oil with a lower number before W makes it easier to start the engine in cold weather. (2) The 20 in 0W-20 indicates the oil's viscosity characteristics at high temperatures. If the vehicle is driven at high speeds or under extremely heavy load conditions, it is more suitable to use oil with higher viscosity (higher viscosity number). 2. Oil selection: Naturally aspirated engines generally use ordinary quality oil, which can be mineral oil or semi-synthetic oil, while those with larger budgets can use fully synthetic oil. Compared to naturally aspirated engines, turbocharged engines have a more compact structure and operate in harsher conditions, requiring higher-grade lubricants with better fluidity, preferably fully synthetic oil.
