To reset the maintenance light on the diesel version of the Great Wall Wingle 5, first, when the vehicle is not started, press and hold the mileage reset button without releasing it. Then, start the engine again, and release the button once the maintenance indicator light disappears. Alternatively, after completing the maintenance, you can ask the staff to use a computer to reset it. Below is some related information about the Wingle 5: 1. The Wingle 5 offers two cargo compartment sizes to choose from: small double and large double. The small double model's cargo compartment dimensions are 1380mm, 1460mm, and 480mm, while the large double model's cargo compartment dimensions are 1680mm, 1460mm, and 480mm. 2. The exterior design is relatively simple, with the door handles aligned in a straight line with the rear. The side skirts above the tires are raised, and the rear design is clean, featuring a vertical row of three taillights with two additional independent taillights below.

I often work on my car myself, and resetting the maintenance light is a piece of cake. For the Great Wall Wingle 5 diesel version, the standard procedure is: insert the car key, turn it to the ON position where the dashboard lights up but the engine doesn't start. Locate the TRIP button or ODO RESET key on the dashboard, press and hold it for about 10 to 15 seconds, and you'll see the maintenance indicator light flash a few times before turning off. Then turn off the key and restart the power to check if it was successful. This can save you the hassle of going to the shop. Diesel vehicles require even more attention to timely maintenance; even if the light goes out, don't slack off—change the oil filter every 5,000 kilometers, clean the intake tract carbon deposits, and extend the engine's lifespan. A safety tip is to wear gloves to prevent static electricity before operating. If the light doesn't respond, it might be a button contact issue—gently wipe off the dust and try again. The key is not to do it while the engine is running to avoid damaging the circuits.

Check tire wear condition and determine if pressure adjustment is necessary; 2. Inspect the entire lighting system: headlights, indicators, emergency signal lights, trunk light, cabin lights, glove box light, dashboard warning lights; 3. Check the operation of the windshield wipers, their positioning, and wear condition; 4. Inspect the exterior of the body, underbody protective components, pipes, and rubber parts; 5. Check the condition of various control belts; 6. Inspect and adjust the handbrake travel; 7. Tighten chassis screws, as driving may cause unavoidable impacts, leading to loosened screws.

What is the tutorial for replacing the battery in an old Mercedes-Benz E280 key?

The tutorial for replacing the battery in an old Mercedes-Benz E280 key is: 1. First, flip open the tab at the rear end of the key to remove the mechanical key; 2. Insert the mechanical key into the slot on the side of the key, press the internal gray button, and with the other hand, push the rear end of the key upward. When a gap appears, the owner can remove the mechanical key; 3. Then, manually remove the rear end to replace the battery; 4. After installing the new battery, reinsert the key bracket. In terms of appearance, the E280 features Mercedes-Benz's iconic large air intake grille, which exudes a steady sharpness, providing sufficient air for the 3.0L V6 engine. The side lines are very stylish, with curves diverging from the front sharply rising to the A-pillar, then rapidly descending to the B and C-pillars, connecting to the voluminous trunk. The sharp curves reflect the unique design aesthetics of the Germanic people. The wheel arches on the fenders highlight a strong sense of sportiness, with a slightly flared design accentuating a robust feel.

How to resolve fault code u0121?

Solution for fault code U0121: The ABS sensor may be damaged or the wiring may be broken. You can inspect the ABS sensor and check the wiring to identify the specific cause before proceeding with repairs. Fault code U0121 applies to all automobile manufacturers and indicates a loss of communication with the anti-lock braking control module. The anti-lock braking system (ABS) prevents wheel lock-up. It is an advanced automotive safety control system with advantages such as anti-skid and anti-lock features, allowing the vehicle to maintain steering capability during braking, ensuring directional stability, and preventing skidding or deviation. ABS is an improved technology based on conventional braking systems and can be categorized into mechanical and electronic types. It is currently one of the more advanced and effective braking systems in automobiles.

What Causes Steering Wheel Vibration When the Air Conditioning is Turned On?

The reasons for steering wheel vibration after turning on the air conditioning: 1. A dirty throttle body can cause slight engine vibration, which is usually not noticeable. However, when the air conditioning is turned on, the engine load increases, amplifying the vibration; 2. If the vehicle has insufficient power, especially in automatic transmission models, the engine may struggle at high RPMs. Adding a high-power air conditioning system can exacerbate steering wheel vibration. This is particularly common in small-displacement naturally aspirated engines; 3. A faulty air conditioning compressor can cause vibration, accompanied by symptoms like no cold air output despite the blower running. If both issues occur, there's a 90% chance the compressor is the problem. A car's air conditioning system consists of a compressor, condenser, throttle valve, evaporator, fan, and necessary control components, designed to regulate cabin temperature and humidity for passenger comfort.

When should engine oil be changed based on its color?

Engine oil should be changed when its color turns brown and becomes opaque. To check, place a drop of oil on white paper and observe the spreading edge. If the edge is unclear, the oil can still be used. However, if the edge becomes very distinct and the oil does not spread much, it's time for a change. Fresh engine oil typically appears light yellow, yellowish-brown, or dark brown and is translucent. Notes on engine oil change: 1. Multi-grade oil is preferred due to its advantages in fuel economy, longevity, and efficiency. However, because of its characteristics, multi-grade oil may darken prematurely and exhibit lower oil pressure during use. 2. In colder seasons, it's advisable to use oil with lower viscosity to ensure smooth oil flow. During summer or when the engine is severely worn, higher viscosity oil is recommended as it helps form a better oil film, thereby reducing engine wear.

Is Gear Oil the Same as Engine Oil?

Gear oil is not engine oil. Gear oil, also known as transmission oil, is used in automotive transmissions. It is primarily composed of petroleum lubricants, base oils, or synthetic lubricants, combined with extreme pressure anti-wear agents and oiliness agents to form a type of transmission lubricant. It is used to lubricate various gears in transmissions, reducers, and differentials to prevent gear surface wear, scratches, and sintering, thereby extending service life and improving power transmission efficiency. Engine oil, on the other hand, is used in automotive engines and is a type of engine lubricant composed of base oils and additives. Depending on the base oil, it can be classified into semi-synthetic oil, fully synthetic oil, and mineral oil. Inside the engine, oil serves functions such as cleaning, lubricating, and cooling components. It operates in high-temperature and high-pressure environments for extended periods, requiring high oxidation resistance and stronger shear resistance.
