Different charging methods and vehicle types, hybrid electric vehicles do not belong to new energy vehicles, while plug-in hybrid vehicles still belong to new energy vehicles. Under pure electric drive, plug-in hybrid vehicles have a much higher range than hybrid electric vehicles. The following is more information about plug-in hybrid and hybrid electric vehicles: 1. Plug-in hybrid vehicles have two sets of drive systems that can completely drive the car in pure electric mode, and they can drive at least about 50 kilometers in pure electric mode. After the battery is depleted, the engine starts to intervene, driving the car while charging and recycling the battery. 2. Hybrid electric vehicles are non-plug-in hybrid vehicles, generally with a range of only a few kilometers, provided that the pure electric mode is used at speeds below 40 km/h.

Is Transmission Oil Leakage a Serious Issue?

If it's a minor oil seepage, the issue is not significant. However, if it has progressed to direct oil leakage, it is considered a serious condition that requires immediate replacement. Below are solutions for transmission oil leakage: 1. If transmission oil seepage is detected, promptly visit a 4S shop or repair facility to identify the source of the seepage. If the repair is straightforward, addressing it immediately is the best course of action. However, most seepage occurs in internal components, which may require removing the engine or transmission for repair. In such cases, it can be temporarily overlooked, but regular checks and transmission oil top-ups are essential. 2. Transmission oil leakage is a severe situation where the recently filled transmission oil may drain completely within days. In this scenario, immediate transmission replacement is necessary to prevent further damage to the transmission.

What to Do When Car Key Buttons Are Not Working?

Car key buttons may not work due to: 1. Obstructions like buildings between the vehicle and the key. 2. Low battery causing the smart key's radio waves to fail reaching the vehicle. The range of the key's radio wave transmission is related to its penetration power. When the key's battery is low, the wave's penetration weakens, making it unable to pass through obstacles to reach the vehicle, resulting in unresponsive buttons. Basic principles of car remote keys: 1. The key emits weak radio waves, which are received by the car's antenna. The electronic control unit (ECU) deciphers the signal code, and the system's actuator (motor or electromagnetic coil) executes the lock/unlock action. 2. The system mainly consists of a transmitter and a receiver.

What Causes Normal Coolant Temperature but No Warm Air from Heater?

Possible reasons for normal coolant temperature but no warm air from the heater include damaged water pump impeller or clogged cabin air filter. The specific causes and solutions are as follows: Water Pump Impeller Damage: If the vehicle's water pump impeller is damaged or slipping, it reduces water flow through the radiator, resulting in insufficient heating. The solution is to replace the water pump impeller. Clogged Cabin Air Filter: A clogged cabin air filter or malfunctioning heater control components may cause inadequate airflow from the blower or improper hot/cold air distribution, leading to poor heating performance. The solution is to clean or replace the cabin air filter.

What's the reason for high coolant temperature?

The reasons include insufficient coolant; slippage, breakage of the fan drive belt, or incorrect fan blade angle. Here are the solutions for excessively high coolant temperature: 1. Check the coolant level in the radiator. If the coolant is insufficient, replenish it promptly. 2. Inspect the tension of the fan drive belt and the angle of the blades. Rotate the fan blades by hand—if they turn easily, it indicates the fan drive belt is too loose. If the cooling effect improves after adjusting the fan drive belt to the specified tension, then the poor cooling is due to the loose fan drive belt. If the coolant temperature remains high after adjustment, further check for any deformation in the fan blades and whether the blade angle is appropriate, correcting the blade angle if necessary.

Where is the jack located in the Magotan?

Magotan's jack is located in the trunk of the car, placed together with the spare tire. A jack is a lightweight lifting device that uses a rigid lifting component as the working mechanism to lift heavy objects within a small stroke through the top support seat or bottom support claw. Jacks are mainly used in factories, mines, transportation, and other sectors for vehicle repairs and other lifting and support tasks. They feature a lightweight and sturdy structure, flexible and reliable operation, and are easy to carry and use. The Magotan is a B-segment sedan under FAW-Volkswagen, with dimensions of 4866mm in length, 1832mm in width, and 1464mm in height, and a wheelbase of 2812mm. The car boasts a bold V-shaped front grille that exudes stability and elegance, sleek body lines that are dynamic and stylish, and a waistline that maintains the classic diamond proportion while maximizing interior space within a moderate size.

Which brand of brake pads is suitable for small cars?

For small cars, you can choose the Remsa brake pads. Below are the features of Remsa brake pads and methods to prevent excessive wear of brake pads: Features of Remsa brake pads: Remsa brake pads use special ceramic brake pads. These special ceramic brake pads employ third-generation enhanced hybrid technology, which, based on ordinary ceramic brake pads, can further reduce noise, suppress dust, prevent brake failure, and enhance braking force while providing a safe and reliable comfortable experience. The noise-reducing shims use advanced technology with specialized nitrile polymer coating attachments, effectively suppressing noise and vibration. Methods to prevent excessive wear of brake pads: When descending steep slopes, pre-reduce the speed, use appropriate gears, and employ engine braking combined with the operation of the braking system. This can effectively reduce the burden on the braking system and avoid overheating of the braking system.
