What is the normal temperature for a car's temperature gauge?

The normal temperature for a car's coolant temperature gauge should be around 90℃. This calibration is set during the initial design of the engine, taking into comprehensive consideration factors such as engine material, oil performance, gasoline atomization level, and the impact of temperature on the lifespan of various components. Reasons for the temperature warning light to activate despite normal water temperature include: Insufficient coolant: Owners can check if there are any leaks in the radiator causing low coolant levels. If there are no leaks, coolant can be replenished promptly. If leaks are found, the radiator needs to be replaced. Thermostat malfunction: When the thermostat is damaged, the water hoses do not operate in the normal small and large circulation states, which can also lead to excessively high radiator temperature. Faulty cooling fan: If the car's cooling fan does not rotate, the radiator cannot dissipate heat, naturally causing the coolant temperature to rise and leading to "boiling over." Circulation water pump failure: Common issues with the circulation water pump include cracked impellers or detachment from the pump shaft, preventing the cooling system from circulating properly and resulting in excessively high water temperature.

Where is the oil filter of Peugeot 408 located?

The oil filter of Peugeot 408 is generally located at the lower front part of the engine. Open the engine hood, and you'll find it near the middle left side of the driver's position, next to the catalytic converter, close to the lower guard plate with its opening facing downward. The function of the oil filter is to remove impurities, colloids, and moisture from the engine oil, delivering clean oil to various lubrication points. The Peugeot 408 is a compact car with dimensions of 4750mm in length, 1820mm in width, and 1488mm in height, and a wheelbase of 2730mm. The design of the Peugeot 408 embodies Peugeot's new DNA: the front face design features originate from the iconic lion-eye headlights, which integrate seamlessly with the engine hood, presenting a bright and penetrating appearance that strongly reflects Peugeot's brand image. The car's grille with chrome trim, the chrome-finished Peugeot logo, and the crystal-clear fog lights are tightly combined, making the vehicle visually appear wider, exuding a premium feel while creating a grand and intense visual tension.

What is the fuel tank capacity of the Mazda6 Atenza in liters?

The fuel tank capacity of the Mazda6 Atenza is 56.2 liters. This vehicle is equipped with a 2.0L 158HP L4 naturally aspirated engine and a 6-speed automatic transmission, delivering a maximum power of 116 kW and a maximum torque of 202 Nm. The body dimensions are 4870mm in length, 1840mm in width, and 1445mm in height, with a wheelbase of 2830mm. The front track is 1585mm, and the rear track is 1575mm. The trunk capacity is 483 liters. In the same vehicle class, the 2022 Honda Accord 260TURBO Comfort Edition has a fuel tank capacity of 56 liters, while the 2022 Volkswagen Passat 280TSI Business Edition has a fuel tank capacity of 68.5 liters. During actual refueling, the amount of fuel may exceed the marked capacity. This is because the fuel tank capacity specified by the 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 marked 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 close to 'E', it indicates low fuel, while proximity to 'F' indicates sufficient fuel.

What engine does the BYD Yuan use?

The BYD Yuan is equipped with two types of engines: a 1.5-liter naturally aspirated engine and a 1.5-liter turbocharged engine.

The 1.5-liter turbocharged engine produces a maximum power of 154 horsepower and a maximum torque of 240 Nm, with peak power output at 5,200 rpm and peak torque available between 1,750 rpm and 3,500 rpm.

Does the BYD Tang have a pure electric version?

BYD Tang is available in both pure electric and fuel-powered versions. The BYD Tang is a mid-size SUV launched by BYD Auto, featuring a redesigned taillight and an added rear spoiler to reduce wind resistance during driving. The taillights adopt a full-width design, with smoked lenses that provide high visibility when lit, delivering excellent visual effects. In terms of exterior design, the fuel-powered and new energy models are largely similar, with a large front grille decorated with chrome trim. The front headlights feature a flat design and are connected to the grille, further enhancing the vehicle's stylish appearance.

What is the minimum ground clearance of the XPeng G3?

The minimum ground clearance of the XPeng G3 is 140mm. Definition of minimum ground clearance: Minimum ground clearance refers to the distance between the lowest point of the vehicle (excluding wheels) and the supporting surface when the vehicle is fully loaded and stationary. It is used to indicate the vehicle's ability to pass over obstacles such as stones and tree stumps without collision. Relationship between ground clearance and vehicle off-road performance: The smaller the ground clearance, the worse the ability to pass over obstacles. Sedans typically travel on flat urban roads, hence they have smaller ground clearance. Off-road vehicles have larger minimum ground clearance to allow them to pass over larger obstacles.

How to Check the Oil Level of the BYD Tang Hybrid?

BYD Tang Hybrid uses an electronic oil dipstick. The oil level is measured by an oil level sensor located at the oil pan. You can find the oil dipstick display by using the up and down buttons on the steering wheel, and the oil level should be at 'max'. The BYD Tang Hybrid is a mid-size SUV under the BYD brand, built based on the new Dragon Face design language, which brings significant changes compared to the previous generation. These changes are largely influenced by the ideas brought by former Audi design director Wolfgang Egger, featuring a signature large-mouth grille paired with LED headlights on both sides.
