LSY is the engine model of the Cadillac CT5, with a maximum power of 174KW and a peak torque of 350 N·m. The Cadillac CT5 is a domestically produced joint-venture vehicle, and its engine is also domestically manufactured. For the daily maintenance of the Cadillac CT5'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 equipment of the intake and exhaust systems and usage conditions. For diesel engines, choose CB--CD grade diesel engine oil according to the mechanical load, with the selection standard not lower than the manufacturer's specified requirements. Regularly change the engine oil and filter. The quality of any grade of lubricating oil will change during use. After a certain mileage, its performance will deteriorate, causing various problems for the engine. To avoid malfunctions, change the oil regularly based on usage conditions and maintain an appropriate oil level. When oil passes through the fine pores of the filter, solid particles and viscous substances in the oil accumulate in the filter. If the filter becomes clogged and oil cannot pass through the filter element, it may rupture the filter element or open the safety valve, allowing oil to bypass through the relief valve and carry contaminants back to the lubrication areas, 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 powder from component wear to form sludge. In small amounts, it remains suspended in the oil, but in large amounts, it precipitates, clogging filters 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.

Reasons for the Mercedes-Benz C-Class to Keep the Engine Running When Parked

Dirty or clogged idle valves and throttle bodies, as well as contaminated spark plugs, can cause the Mercedes-Benz C-Class to keep the engine running when parked. Dirty or clogged idle valves and throttle bodies: Fuel-injected vehicles have high requirements for fuel quality. The quality of finished fuel in China varies, so after adding poor-quality fuel, a series of adverse effects may occur, such as poor atomization leading to a low air-fuel mixture ratio, failure to start the vehicle, and the formation of gum deposits, causing dirty or clogged idle valves and throttle bodies, resulting in rough idling. Contaminated spark plugs: Check if the spark plugs are contaminated. Poor fuel quality can deposit a layer of reddish-brown impurities on the surface of the spark plugs, leading to poor sparking. Depending on the situation, clean the fuel injectors, replace the fuel filter, change the fuel, and clean the fuel pump.

Should the Snow on the Car Roof Be Removed?

After snowfall, the accumulated snow on the car must be cleaned promptly; otherwise, it can easily freeze, leading to icy windows, spray nozzles, and other parts. Do not use hot water to clean the snow off the car body: Avoid using hot water for cleaning, as it can cause the paint's temperature to rise suddenly, leading to cracking and other issues. Use room-temperature water to rinse off the snow on the body. Do not engage the handbrake or lift the wipers when parking: Be cautious not to engage the handbrake during snowy nights, as driving the vehicle on wet roads leaves a significant amount of water residue on the brake discs and calipers. If the handbrake is applied after parking, it may freeze, making the vehicle immobile or damaging the brake system upon starting the next day.

Does the Sylphy have an AT transmission?

Sylphy does not have an AT transmission. The following is a related introduction to transmissions: 1. AMT transmission: Based on the traditional manual transmission, only the manual operation part is changed, and automatic shifting is achieved through an electronically controlled automatic operating system. The AMT has a simple structure, low cost, and good fuel economy, but its comfort is poor, and the automation control is difficult. 2. AT transmission: The early transmission system was mainly 4AT, and it has developed in multiple directions, such as 6AT and 8AT. The AT has the characteristics of smooth shifting, good comfort, and strong power transmission capability, but its fuel economy is poor, and the manufacturing cost is high. 3. CVT transmission: It is a true continuously variable transmission, with few parts and small size, and has the advantages of high efficiency and low fuel consumption. It can also be used as a power coupling and transmission matched with hybrid vehicles. However, it has disadvantages such as complex manufacturing, large investment, easy damage to the transmission belt, and short service life.

Can soft brakes be adjusted to be harder?

Soft brakes can be adjusted to be harder. It is recommended that car owners go to a 4S shop for on-site inspection and troubleshooting. There are several reasons for soft brakes: 1. There is air in the system; 2. The free gap is too large; 3. The brake fluid is of poor quality with a low boiling point, causing bubbles to form during braking; 4. The master cylinder or wheel cylinder has poor sealing, leading to pressure loss; 5. The brake fluid is not the same brand or model as the original brake fluid, causing a chemical reaction that produces corrosive substances, corroding the rubber rings at the master cylinder and wheel cylinder, resulting in poor sealing and pressure loss. Brakes are mechanical braking devices that can slow down the speed of a vehicle, also known as decelerators. The car brake pedal is located below the steering wheel. Pressing the brake pedal causes the brake linkage to be pressurized and transmitted to the brake pads on the brake drum, clamping the brake disc to slow down or stop the car.
