Dongfeng Honda CRV actual fuel consumption is 8-10 for the 2.0 displacement and around 9-12 for the 2.4 displacement. It specifically depends on driving habits and experience. 1. Biggest advantages: Fashionable and dynamic appearance, smooth lines, rounded yet sporty; improved materials and workmanship; good configuration; strong power; flexible handling; relatively high cost performance. 2. Space: Overall driving and riding space is spacious and ample, with no obvious tightness in head and leg space; abundant and practical storage space inside the car; seats are well-wrapped and comfortable, with rear seats slightly adjustable, making long-distance rides more practical. 3. Handling: Comfortable and flexible handling, clear gear positions, smooth shifting, with a car-like driving feel; responsive throttle; steering wheel feels good but lacks precise pointing; wide tires have good grip performance; solid chassis, but with a small ground clearance, resulting in poor passability; suspension is too soft, leading to subpar high-speed stability; some users report noticeable noise during high-speed driving.

My 2005 CRV is a 2.4L 4WD model, and after driving it for nearly two decades, I know its fuel appetite best. In city traffic jams, the dashboard often shows 12-13 liters per 100km, and it drinks an extra half liter with AC on in summer. It's quite fuel-efficient on highways though, dropping to around 8.5L/100km in cruise control. But for older cars, fuel consumption depends heavily on maintenance - after replacing the oxygen sensor and spark plugs last month, my combined fuel economy improved by nearly 1L/100km. Regular changes of transmission fluid and air filters, plus keeping tires slightly underinflated, all help with fuel efficiency.

According to the data from the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology that year, the combined fuel consumption of the 2005 CRV 2WD version was 9.8L. Actual usage varies: in pure city driving with many traffic lights, it can reach 11-13L, and in severe traffic congestion, it can go up to 14L. Suburban roads are the most ideal, maintaining a steady speed of 60-80 km/h consumes about 8-9L. My vehicle now has 240,000 kilometers, and last month's actual test on a mix of highway and national roads, with air conditioning on throughout, showed a fuel consumption of 10.3L per 100 kilometers. For older cars, it's recommended to clean the throttle body every 5,000 kilometers, as excessive carbon buildup can significantly increase fuel consumption.

Heavy-duty and medium-duty trucks, semi-trailers: The height from the ground must not exceed 4 meters, and for container-carrying vehicles, it must not exceed 4.2 meters. 2. Motorcycles: The height from the ground must not exceed 1.5 meters, and the length must not extend beyond the body by more than 0.2 meters. The width of items carried on two-wheel motorcycles must not exceed the handlebars by more than 0.15 meters on either side; for three-wheel motorcycles, the width must not exceed the body. 3.

What Are the Pros and Cons of Car Windshield Tinting?

Here is a detailed introduction to the pros and cons of car windshield tinting: 1. Pros: Heat insulation and sun protection. Tinting can effectively block a significant amount of heat generated by infrared rays. UV protection. Medium and long waves of ultraviolet rays can penetrate thick glass, but applying a heat-insulating film can block most UV rays, protecting the skin from damage and reducing the aging of car interiors. Safety and explosion-proof. The base layer of the film is made of polyester, which has excellent tear resistance and penetration prevention. Combined with the adhesive layer of the film, it enhances the glass strength, preventing injuries to passengers in case of accidental glass breakage. Creating a private space. By choosing the right type of film, the interior of the car becomes difficult to see from the outside while maintaining clear visibility from the inside, ensuring privacy and safety. 2. Cons: Darker tint films can sometimes obstruct the driver's vision and cause reflections on the car body, which may impair the visibility of drivers behind, potentially increasing the risk of rear-end collisions. Additionally, metallic films can interfere with ETC and GPS signals and may cause issues like high reflectivity.

Is Slight Steering Wheel Vibration Normal at High Speeds?

It is normal for a car to experience slight vibrations at high speeds. The engine generates vibrations during operation, which can sometimes be felt. Additionally, the vehicle body may resonate to some extent while driving. If the owner is concerned, they can check the following: whether the engine and transmission mounting brackets are secure, whether the engine mounts are intact, whether the rubber mounts have cracks, whether the screws are loose, and whether the steering gear mounting screws are loose. Below are some precautions for high-speed driving: 1. Take breaks: Ensure adequate rest before and during the drive. Get enough sleep before driving to prepare for the journey. If you feel drowsy while driving, stop at a service area to rest. Never force yourself to continue driving when sleepy. 2. Use lights properly: Switch between high and low beams appropriately. Use low beams when there is no median barrier. 3. Maintain a safe distance: High-speed driving can affect a driver's visibility and reaction time, so keep a sufficient distance to ensure adequate braking space. 4. Inspect the car before driving: Check the lights, engine oil, coolant, tire pressure, and other components before setting off to avoid malfunctions during the trip.

Why does the parking diesel heater stop shortly after starting?

The parking diesel heater stops shortly after starting due to a thermostat that is constantly open or opens too early, a damaged or slipping water pump impeller, or airlocks in the engine cooling system. The airlocks cause poor circulation in the cooling system, leading to high water temperature and insufficient heating. Introduction to diesel heaters: A diesel heater, also known as a parking diesel heater, is a vehicle heating device primarily used for warming the cabins of trucks, operable both while driving and parked. When installing a diesel heater, it is essential to use official channels and hire qualified technicians for the installation. Retrofitting a diesel heater into a vehicle requires modifications to the original fuel and electrical systems. If the modifications are not done properly and fail to meet safety standards, it can easily lead to issues. Precautions for diesel heater installation: Most diesel heaters are installed with the heating outlet placed under the bunk and the exhaust outlet positioned beneath the cabin. If the cabin's bottom is not well-sealed, prolonged use while parked may allow exhaust gases to enter the cabin, causing oxygen deprivation. People may not realize they are experiencing oxygen deprivation while sleeping, which can pose a fatal risk.

Will Traffic Police Stop Motorcycles with Modified Handlebars?

Motorcycles with modified handlebars will not be stopped by traffic police. Principles of motorcycle modification: Graphics, exhaust, auxiliary lights, and tires can be modified. According to Article 16 of the "Road Traffic Safety Law of the People's Republic of China": No unit or individual may assemble a motor vehicle or alter the registered structure, construction, or characteristics of a vehicle without authorization. The four most common modifications—graphics, exhaust, auxiliary lights, and tires—do not alter the vehicle's structure, so they fall within the permissible modification range. However, it is important to note that graphics modifications must be registered with the local vehicle management office; otherwise, self-modification may easily violate regulations and be deemed illegal. Handlebars, footpegs, crash bars, and windshields can be modified: Accessories such as handlebars, footpegs, crash bars, and windshields can be modified as long as they do not change the motorcycle's structure, construction, or characteristics. However, riders must choose modification parts produced by reputable motorcycle modification brands. Engine model, displacement, and tire specifications cannot be modified: Article 16 of the "Road Traffic Safety Law of the People's Republic of China" explicitly states that no unit or individual may engage in illegal modifications such as altering the motor vehicle model, engine number, frame number, or vehicle identification code. Therefore, when modifying a motor vehicle, riders must avoid changing the motorcycle's engine model, displacement, or tire specifications. Otherwise, driving an illegally modified vehicle on the road will result in the vehicle being impounded, illegal devices confiscated, and fines imposed by traffic authorities in accordance with the law.
