The seventh-generation Camry complies with the China IV emission standard. Methods to determine a vehicle's emission standard include: 1. Checking the original and duplicate copies of the environmental protection inspection qualification label; 2. Visiting the Motor Vehicle Environmental Protection Website and entering the vehicle model and engine type in the new vehicle compliance query system. The dimensions of the seventh-generation Camry are: length 4825mm, width 1820mm, height 1485mm, with a wheelbase of 2775mm, front track of 1575mm, and rear track of 1560mm. The car features a specially designed dashboard and seats that create a strong sense of space. The newly designed four-spoke steering wheel allows for adjustable height and tilt angle, offering both dynamic performance and exceptional comfort.

The production period of the seventh-generation Camry was from late 2011 to 2017, during which the emission standards were quite complex. Early models from 2011-2014 were mostly China IV emission compliant, as the national standard at that time was still China IV. 2015 marked a turning point when China V standards became mandatory nationwide, so all vehicles manufactured after 2015 comply with China V standards. The most accurate way to check is by referring to the vehicle's green environmental label, which clearly states the emission standard, or by checking the supplementary page of the vehicle registration certificate. Additionally, it's worth noting that annual vehicle inspections are becoming increasingly stringent regarding environmental requirements, with some cities already restricting the movement of China IV vehicles. This is an important factor to consider when purchasing a used car from this era.

I drive a 2013 seventh-generation Camry. When I bought it, the 4S dealership said it met the China IV emission standard. I checked the environmental compliance list, and it indeed states China IV. Now, the annual inspections are also conducted according to the China IV standard. Note that most cars before 2015 generally comply with China IV, but there might be special cases in certain regions where China V was implemented earlier. It's best to check the vehicle conformity certificate for the most accurate information. Recently, I heard that some cities have started banning China IV diesel vehicles within the third ring road. Fortunately, gasoline vehicles like ours are not affected for now, but the resale value might drop in the future.

Toyota's emission standards are categorized in great detail. For the 7th-generation Camry 2.0L models, those produced between 2011-2014 complied with China IV standards, while the facelifted 2015 models were all upgraded to China V. Interestingly, the 2.5L hybrid version already met quasi-China V standards back then, being significantly more environmentally friendly than the gasoline variants. During current vehicle inspections, pay attention to exhaust data: China IV vehicles have an HC compound limit of 0.25g/km, which drops to 0.10g/km for China V. In actual tests, over 80% of older Camrys still pass easily, demonstrating Toyota engines' remarkable durability.

What brand of tires does the Volkswagen New Bora use?

Volkswagen New Bora uses Hankook tires, with tire sizes of 195/65/R15 and 205/55/R16. Hankook Tire was founded in 1941 as South Korea's first tire company, providing radial tires for passenger cars, light trucks (SUVs, RVs, etc.), trucks, buses, and special racing vehicles. Hankook has five R&D centers worldwide, ensuring that its tires meet the needs and enhance customer satisfaction in each region. On July 16, 2021, it ranked 50th in the list of the world's top 100 automotive parts companies. For the Volkswagen New Bora's tires in daily use, pay attention to the following points: Regularly check the tire surface for cracks, deformations, or other defects. Due to wear from driving, the tread grooves gradually become shallow. If the tread wears flat, it will lose its water drainage and anti-slip functions, significantly reducing the car's performance. Small cracks can also be potential hazards for tire blowouts at high speeds. Additionally, promptly remove pebbles stuck in the grooves. Park on flat ground whenever possible. Avoid parking on roads with thick, sharp, or pointed stones. Do not park near or in contact with petroleum products, acids, or other materials that can deteriorate rubber. After parking, avoid turning the steering wheel, as this accelerates tire wear. Do not splash water to cool down. In hot weather or during high-speed driving, tires can overheat, and tire pressure may increase. In such cases, stop to let the tires cool naturally. Never release air to reduce pressure or splash water to cool them, as this can cause abnormal aging of the tread rubber. Avoid sudden braking. Try to minimize frequent or hard braking to prevent accelerated tread wear from dragging against the ground.

What are the symptoms of a bad starter?

The symptoms of a bad starter are: the vehicle cannot start or has difficulty starting, unstable idle speed, prone to stalling, inability to accelerate when power is insufficient, excessive fuel consumption and emissions, and a rattling sound from the starter drive gear impacting the flywheel teeth. The starter, also known as the motor, converts the electrical energy from the battery into mechanical energy to drive the engine flywheel rotation and achieve engine startup. Starters are categorized by working principle into DC starters, gasoline starters, and compressed air starters. Most internal combustion engines use DC starters, which are characterized by compact structure, simple operation, and easy maintenance.

What are the signs of shock absorber failure?

Shock absorber failure manifests as follows: Shock absorber oil leakage: Normally, the outer surface of a shock absorber is dry and clean. If oil seeps out, it indicates that the hydraulic oil inside the shock absorber has escaped from the upper part of the piston rod. In this case, the shock absorber is essentially failing; Unusual noises: When the car passes over bumpy roads or speed bumps, if a wheel makes noise, it indicates that the shock absorber on that wheel has poor damping performance or has failed; Body tilt: When the car turns, there is a noticeable increase in body roll, and in severe cases, even skidding may occur. This is mainly due to the shock absorber's damping force being too small, unable to effectively suppress the compression of the spring; No surface temperature: After driving on rough road conditions for a while, touch the shell of each shock absorber to feel its temperature. Under normal circumstances, the shock absorber shell should be warm. If a shock absorber shell has no temperature, it indicates that the shock absorber is damaged.
