Changan's maintenance interval is every 5,000 kilometers or six months, whichever comes first. The maintenance items include: 1. Replace engine oil and oil filter, clean the air filter, and check whether the generator belt and wiper blades are damaged; 2. Check whether the levels of various fluids are normal; 3. Check whether the tire pressure is normal and whether there is uneven wear, bulging, or damage to the tires; 4. Inspect the vehicle chassis for any abnormalities, including checking for scratches on the brake pads, brake discs, connecting rods, ball joints, and CV joints; 5. Verify that all switches and lights in the vehicle are functioning properly. Changan's vehicle models include: Changan CS35, Changan Yuexiang V3, Changan CS75, Changan Yuexiang V7, Changan Eado, etc.

I just bought a Changan car not long ago, and the salesperson told me that the first maintenance should be done at 5,000 kilometers or within 3 months, with a focus on changing the engine oil and filter to ensure smooth running-in of the new car. After that, regular maintenance is every 5,000 kilometers or 6 months, which helps protect the engine and prevent carbon buildup. If you drive a lot, such as long-distance trips every day, you can appropriately extend it to 7,500 kilometers but should regularly check the oil level. Maintenance isn’t just about changing the oil; it also involves brake inspections, tire balancing, and more. I learn something new with each maintenance visit and feel the car becomes more durable. Don’t ignore the manual’s reminders—different models like the CS75 may have stricter requirements. Timely maintenance can save you hassle and big money by preventing major repairs.

What are the reasons for incomplete retraction of disc brake pistons?

Here are the possible reasons for incomplete retraction of disc brake pistons: 1. Brake pedal malfunction: Aging of the brake pedal can cause the spring or screws to loosen, resulting in symptoms such as slow or incomplete brake retraction. In this case, a detailed inspection of the car's pedal is necessary, and any damaged parts should be replaced promptly. 2. Low brake pump pressure: There are many reasons for low brake pump pressure, including clogged brake system management or air leakage in the brake booster. In such cases, it is advisable to visit a repair shop or 4S store for professional inspection and repair. 3. Insufficient brake fluid: Lack of brake fluid is a major cause of incomplete brake retraction. In this situation, it is essential to promptly check the brake fluid and replace or replenish it as needed.

What to Do If You Forget to Turn Off the Engine After Exiting a Car with Push-Button Start?

For vehicles with push-button start, the engine must be turned off in the P (Park) position to completely cut off the power. If the engine is turned off without being in the P position, the vehicle cannot power down, and the doors cannot be locked. Therefore, if the engine is not turned off in the P position, you need to press the start button again before exiting the car to completely cut off the power, allowing the doors and steering wheel to lock. More details about push-button start are as follows: 1. Point One: Using the push-button start when the car is in P or N (Neutral) position does not harm the engine. However, turning off the engine while the car is in gear can cause some damage. Additionally, for safety reasons, it is best to press the brake pedal before using the push-button start to turn off the engine. 2. Point Two: The correct steps to turn off the engine in a push-button start vehicle are as follows: Press the brake pedal to bring the vehicle to a complete stop, shift the gear from D (Drive) to N, engage the handbrake, and release the foot brake. Do not turn off the power immediately. Then, press the brake pedal again and shift the gear from N to P. Release the foot brake and press the push-button start to turn off the power, completing the engine shutdown process.

What is the reason for the Highlander's climbing failure?

After the car starts, the center of gravity shifts backward, reducing the grip of the front wheels. The Highlander has an issue with the front-to-rear weight distribution, which leads to insufficient front-wheel grip when the center of gravity shifts backward, making it difficult to climb slopes. This problem does not exist in the 4WD version because the rear wheels also provide power. Below is some related information about the Highlander: 1. Body dimensions: The Highlander was officially launched in China in July 2007 as an imported model. It has a body length of 4795mm, a width of 1910mm, a height of 1760mm, a wheelbase of 2790mm, and a fuel tank capacity of 72 liters. 2. Space: The Highlander has always been marketed with its large body, spacious interior, and luxurious and comfortable interior as its main selling points. 3. Powertrain: It is equipped with a 3.5L V6 engine with an output of up to 201 kW, paired with a stepped 5-speed automatic transmission. Its smooth acceleration and good fuel economy make it highly popular in the market, making it a strong competitor in the SUV market.

What is the brake-air warning light?

brake is the brake warning light, which is usually in the off state. If it lights up, it indicates that the brake system is in operation. It typically lights up when the handbrake is engaged or the brake pedal is pressed, and it will automatically turn off after braking is completed. If the brake indicator light stays on, it means there is a fault in the brake system. The solutions for a lit brake light are: 1. Check if the handbrake is engaged or not fully released. If it is engaged, release it; 2. Check the brake fluid reservoir level. If the brake fluid is insufficient, add more; 3. If there is a leak in the brake master cylinder or oil pipe, after adding brake fluid, drive to a nearby repair shop for maintenance; 4. If there is air leakage in the brake system, slow down while driving to the repair shop to avoid poor braking performance due to excessive speed, which could lead to traffic accidents.

How to Charge a Car Battery?

Nowadays, new car batteries generally do not require charging. Specific information is as follows: 1. Charging Principle: The principle of charging is that the charger's voltage must be higher than the battery's voltage to enable charging. The greater the electromotive force difference between the two, the faster the charging speed and the larger the charging current. Therefore, a typical 24V charger has a maximum (no-load) voltage of 28V, while 60A refers to its maximum output capability. During charging, the charger is under load, and the voltage at this time is the charging voltage of the battery. The 40A current is the charging current, which will gradually decrease as the charging process completes. 2. Charging Method: Initial charging is carried out in two stages: First, charge with the initial charging current until the electrolyte releases bubbles and the single-cell voltage rises to 2.3—2.4V. Then, reduce the current to half of the initial charging current and continue charging until the electrolyte releases intense bubbles, and both the characteristics and voltage remain stable for 3 consecutive hours. The total charging time is approximately 45—65 hours.

Is the CVT transmission of the ninth-generation Accord durable?

At the level of family car usage, the CVT transmission can last approximately 30,000 to 40,000 kilometers. Among the various types of transmissions such as CVT, AT, and dual-clutch transmissions, the CVT transmission offers better stability. Below is a detailed introduction to the CVT transmission: 1. Overview: CVT refers to a type of automotive transmission. The difference between a CVT and a stepped transmission is that its gear ratio is not a series of discrete points but a continuous range of values, thereby achieving good fuel economy, power performance, and smooth driving, while also reducing emissions and costs. 2. Working Principle: The system mainly includes basic components such as the driving pulley set, driven pulley set, metal belt, and hydraulic pump. It primarily operates by connecting the engine shaft to a small pulley, which drives a larger pulley via a steel belt.
