The normal temperature range for the Roewe 550 coolant gauge is within four bars. Below is an introduction about Roewe: 1. Introduction: Roewe (ROEWE) is an automobile brand under Shanghai Automotive Industry Corporation (Group), launched in October 2006. 2. History: Roewe's automotive technology originates from Rover, which was previously acquired by Shanghai Automotive, but the brand is independently owned. The brand has developed rapidly since its establishment, with its products covering the mid-size and upper mid-size car markets. 3. Brand: Roewe's brand slogan is 'Taste, Technology, and Realization,' expressing Shanghai Automotive's determination and confidence in inheriting international automotive advanced technology with an innovative vision and focusing on civilian vehicle technology to create a new classic international brand.

I've been driving my Roewe 550 for so many years, and the water temperature gauge has an 8-segment design. The needle always stays steadily between the 4th and 5th segments while driving. Under normal driving conditions, the ideal water temperature is around 90 degrees Celsius. If it's too low, it can drag down the engine power, and if it's too high, it might burn the engine gasket. I remember once during a long summer trip, the fan suddenly stopped working, and the gauge shot up past the 6th segment. I was so scared that I immediately pulled over to check if the coolant was leaking. Luckily, after topping it up with new coolant, everything returned to normal. Every time I go for maintenance, I make sure to check the water pump and thermostat to ensure the system runs smoothly. If the gauge fluctuates significantly, don't hesitate—head straight to the workshop for a check-up. Safety always comes first.

As someone who frequently maintains cars, the Roewe 550's temperature gauge has 8 bars, with the normal operating range between 4 to 5 bars. The engine operates most efficiently when the temperature stays around 90 degrees Celsius. If the bars lean too far to the left, it indicates excessive cold start; if it drops below 3 bars, you should check the cooling system for issues. If it leans to the right and exceeds 6 bars, it could be due to fan failure or clogged pipes/fluid leaks. I recommend paying attention to the bar changes while driving and regularly replacing the coolant to prevent rust. Excessively high temperatures are dangerous and can lead to blown head gaskets or even breakdowns, so developing a habit of regular maintenance can save you a lot of trouble.

When I first got the Roewe 550, the manual stated that the normal water temperature should be in the middle zone. During normal driving, I observed it stabilizing around 4 bars. If driven below 2 bars when cold after starting, the engine consumes more fuel; exceeding 5 bars after high-speed driving requires caution against overheating. I regularly check the fan operation and coolant level to ensure the system is free of air bubbles. This bar design is simple and easy to read, making it user-friendly even for beginners. It's best not to delay addressing abnormal water temperature to prevent engine damage.

Which Has More Space, Compact SUV or Small SUV?

Compact SUVs generally offer more space than small SUVs. Small SUVs typically have a vehicle length ranging between 3850-4350mm and a wheelbase of less than 2670mm. Compact SUVs, on the other hand, usually measure between 4300-4750mm in length with a wheelbase of 2600-2760mm. Compact SUVs fundamentally leverage the multi-functional carrying capacity of SUV models. Advantages of SUV models include: 1. Spaciousness: SUVs in the same class are significantly larger than sedans. Besides ample legroom, due to their body shape and higher center of gravity, SUVs provide more lateral space and headroom compared to sedans of the same class, resulting in a more comfortable ride and better visibility. 2. Superior Off-road Capability: SUVs have better off-road performance than sedans. With frequent road construction and some areas having unpaved roads, choosing an SUV helps avoid damage to the undercarriage. 3. Better Long-distance Visibility: SUV drivers sit higher, offering a more expansive view of the road ahead. 4. Practical Trunk Space: As hatchback-style vehicles, SUVs not only make it easier to access items in the trunk but also provide more usable cargo space.

Is it no longer necessary to display the annual inspection and compulsory insurance stickers?

Compulsory insurance stickers are not required in regions where electronic insurance policies have been implemented; additionally, annual inspection stickers were fully digitized in 2020 and replaced by electronic inspection certificates, so annual inspection stickers no longer need to be displayed. 1. The role of compulsory insurance: The compulsory insurance for motor vehicles primarily protects non-passengers and non-insured parties in the event of a traffic accident, providing compensation for personal injuries, deaths, and property damage within specified limits. It can also be understood as insurance that protects everyone except the vehicle owner and passengers. 2. Information on the annual inspection sticker: The motor vehicle inspection certificate includes the certificate number, vehicle license plate number, inspection agency, inspection validity period, and whether the vehicle is exempt from safety technical inspections (i.e., whether it qualifies for the six-year exemption from on-site inspections). Different motor vehicle inspection certificates come in different colors, including yellow, green, and blue.

Why Do Diesel Vehicles Need to Add Urea?

Diesel vehicles add urea to reduce exhaust emissions and protect the atmospheric environment. Urea is used to convert harmful nitrogen oxides in the exhaust into nitrogen and water. The exhaust emitted by diesel engines is highly polluting to the atmosphere. With increasingly stringent environmental regulations, exhaust treatment systems are required to ensure compliance. The primary harmful substances in diesel exhaust are nitrogen oxides and particulate matter. The exhaust treatment system helps reduce particulate emissions. Once urea is used in the vehicle, it is injected into the exhaust treatment system whenever the engine is running. Under high temperatures, urea decomposes into ammonia gas.

How to Check the Engine Oil in a Volvo S90?

Volvo S90 Engine Oil Checking Method: Enter the car status interface to view the engine oil level. Note that the oil level display is not a common progress bar but a vertical line, which requires careful observation to see clearly as it is not very obvious on the surface. The Volvo S90 is a luxury sedan under the Volvo brand. In terms of safety features, the Volvo S90 comes standard with the City Safety system, which now includes emergency braking functionality to avoid oncoming vehicles. The Pilot Assist autonomous driving assistance system provides steering support, distance keeping, and speed control assistance in slow, congested traffic conditions and on long-distance highways at speeds up to 130 km/h.

What is the maximum speed limit for trucks on highways?

On highways, the maximum speed limit for trucks must not exceed 100 kilometers per hour. Highway speed limit regulations: 1. Minimum speed: When driving normally on highways, the minimum speed for motor vehicles must not be lower than 60 km/h. 2. Two lanes in the same direction: The minimum speed for the left lane is 100 km/h. 3. Three or more lanes in the same direction: The minimum speed for the far-left lane is 110 km/h, while the middle lane has a minimum speed of 90 km/h. 4. Small passenger vehicles: The maximum speed limit for small passenger vehicles on highways must not exceed 120 km/h, while other motor vehicles must not exceed 100 km/h, and motorcycles must not exceed 80 km/h.

What to Do When the Tire Pressure Monitoring Warning Light Comes On?

The tire pressure monitoring warning light comes on should slow down the speed, find a safe place to pull over, turn off the engine, wait for 1 to 2 minutes and then restart the vehicle. After the vehicle runs stably, check the tire pressure value displayed on the dashboard. If the tire pressure light is on due to insufficient or excessive tire pressure, adjustments can be made on the spot. The appropriate tire pressure is 2.4 to 2.5 bar. You should regularly check whether the tire pressure is normal in daily life. The hazards of excessive tire pressure: 1. The friction and adhesion of the tire will be reduced, affecting the braking effect; 2. It will cause steering wheel vibration and deviation, reducing driving comfort; 3. It will accelerate the local wear of the tread pattern in the center of the tire, reducing the tire's service life; 4. The vibration of the car body will increase, indirectly affecting the service life of other components.
