About the function of active grille shutters, the relevant introduction is as follows: 1. Maintain car temperature: When the car is just started, the engine temperature is relatively low, especially in cold winter. At this time, the active grille shutters will automatically close to prevent external air from entering the engine, filling the car interior with warm air, thereby allowing the engine to reach the optimal working temperature in the shortest time. When the engine temperature reaches a certain level, the grille shutters will open to prevent the engine from overheating, thus maintaining the optimal working temperature. 2. Reduce wind resistance and improve fuel economy: If the grille shutters remain open, it will increase the car's wind resistance, thereby increasing the driving burden and fuel consumption. The automatic grille shutters will open and close appropriately based on vehicle speed and engine temperature, reducing wind resistance and improving the car's stability. Additionally, with reduced burden and the engine maintaining optimal temperature, fuel can burn more completely, thereby reducing fuel consumption.

Can Wheel Hub Bolt Patterns Be Modified If They Are Different?

Wheel hub bolt patterns cannot be modified if they are different. When replacing wheel hubs, the bolt pattern values must be identical for the modification to be feasible. If the wheel hub's bolt pattern does not match the car's specifications and there is no access to a professional machining center or specialized bolt pattern drill bits, the drilled holes may not fit properly. Additionally, drilling extra holes in the wheel hub could compromise its strength, creating potential safety hazards. Methods for maintaining wheel hubs include: 1. Choosing the right cleaning agent—household cleaners and common dishwashing detergents on the market, being either alkaline or acidic, can be highly corrosive to the wheel hub surface. Opt for neutral soapy water for cleaning to avoid exposing the wheels to strong chemicals; 2. Avoid cleaning when the wheel hub is too hot—never use cold water directly to clean a hot wheel hub. Wait for it to cool down naturally; 3. Develop good driving habits—pay attention to low obstacles on the road during daily driving and avoid parking too close to the curb.

Is Annual Inspection Still Required for a Long-Term Valid Driver's License?

Even if a driver's license is long-term valid, it still requires an annual inspection, unless the vehicle has no demerit points recorded within a scoring cycle, in which case the inspection for that cycle can be waived. Additionally, holders of a C1 long-term driver's license who have not accumulated more than 12 demerit points within a scoring cycle are also exempt from the inspection for that cycle. Relevant details are as follows: 1. License Renewal: If a driver has not reached 12 demerit points in any scoring cycle during the 6-year validity period of their driver's license, they can renew it for a 10-year validity period. Similarly, if they maintain this record during the 10-year validity period, they can renew it for a long-term valid driver's license. When renewing the driver's license, the traffic management department of the public security authority must conduct an inspection. 2. Inspection: Drivers holding licenses for large buses, tractors, city buses, medium-sized buses, or large trucks must undergo an inspection at the traffic management department of the public security authority within 30 days after the end of each scoring cycle. However, if there are no demerit points recorded within a scoring cycle, the inspection for that cycle is waived.

Differences Between Longitudinal and Transverse Engine Layouts?

The main differences between longitudinal and transverse engine layouts are as follows: 1. Different engine position layouts. 2. Due to the different layouts, the optimal power output direction of the engine varies. 3. Because of the above two characteristics, their best applications and matching methods differ. 4. Transverse engines have a simpler structure, lower cost, and can expand the passenger compartment space, while longitudinal engine cars offer higher driving pleasure, better handling, and superior driving feel. 5. Transverse engine cars have poorer handling and lower driving pleasure. Longitudinal engines encroach on passenger compartment space and also come with higher costs.

What is the fuel tank capacity of the 2016 Geely King Kong?

The 2016 Geely King Kong has a total of 50 models, all with a fuel tank capacity of 45 liters. The vehicle is equipped with either a 1.5L or 1.8L naturally aspirated engine, paired with either a 5-speed manual transmission or a 4-speed automatic transmission. During the actual refueling process, the amount of fuel may exceed the calibrated volume. This is because the fuel tank capacity specified by the car manufacturer is measured from the bottom of the tank to the safe fill level. There is additional space from the safe fill level to the tank opening, which is designed to allow for fuel expansion due to temperature increases without causing overflow. If fuel is filled up to the tank opening during refueling, the actual amount of fuel added may exceed the calibrated tank capacity. To check the remaining fuel level, drivers can observe the fuel gauge on the right side of the instrument panel, which is marked with 'E' and 'F'. When the needle is near 'E', it indicates low fuel, and when it is close to 'F', it means the fuel level is sufficient.

Where is the rearview mirror folding switch for the 2021 Haval H6?

The rearview mirror folding switch for the Haval H6 is located on the driver's side door. Here are the specific details: Introduction: The rearview mirror folding switch for the Haval H6 is located on the driver's side door. The rearview mirror is a tool that allows the driver to directly obtain information about the rear, side, and lower parts of the car while seated in the driver's seat. For the convenience of the driver and to prevent traffic accidents and ensure personal safety, all countries require that rearview mirrors must be installed on cars. Taking the 2021 Haval H6 Guochao Edition 1.5T Automatic Urban Edition as an example: it is a compact 5-door, 5-seat SUV with a length, width, and height of 4645mm, 1860mm, and 1720mm respectively, a wheelbase of 2680mm, and is equipped with a 7-speed dual-clutch transmission. Rearview Mirror: Automatic rearview mirror folding when locking the car means that the rearview mirrors automatically fold after the driver locks the car. If the Haval H6 has this function, it not only protects the rearview mirror surface but also reduces parking space, effectively avoiding scratches and preventing pedestrians from hitting the rearview mirrors, which could cause injury or damage to the mirrors.

What is the fuel tank capacity of the 2017 Nissan Qashqai?

2017 Nissan Qashqai has a fuel tank capacity of 65L, and the gasoline specification is 92# or above unleaded gasoline. The Nissan Qashqai is a compact SUV under Dongfeng Nissan. The 2019 and 2021 Nissan Qashqai models have a fuel tank capacity of 57 liters. If the owner wants to know the remaining fuel level, they can observe the fuel gauge on the right side of the dashboard, which is marked with E and F. When the pointer is close to E, it means the fuel is almost empty, and when it is close to F, it means the fuel level is sufficient. The maintenance of the fuel tank is as follows: Drain the accumulated water and sediment in the fuel tank, and check for any oil leakage at the fuel pipe joints and switches. For the fuel tank cap equipped with an air valve and steam valve, also check whether the vent hole is clear. The filter screen at the fuel filler port should be kept intact to prevent impurities from entering the fuel tank during refueling and blocking the fuel line. The sealing gasket of the fuel filler cap should also be intact to prevent fuel from overflowing during driving.
