Emgrand Binyue P0496 trouble code, applicable to all automobile manufacturers, means high purge flow rate in the evaporative emission system. Trouble code meaning: The evaporative emission system directs fuel vapors from the fuel tank into a canister containing activated charcoal that can absorb the fuel vapors. The engine then uses fresh air to purge these fuel vapors into the engine combustion chamber. This trouble code indicates that the purge flow rate in the evaporative emission system is too high. Trouble code clearing: After troubleshooting the vehicle, the trouble code needs to be cleared. When clearing the code, it must be done according to the specified method for the corresponding vehicle model. It is absolutely not permissible to randomly use the method of disconnecting the negative terminal of the battery to clear the trouble code.

During my research on automotive trouble codes, I encountered numerous issues related to P0496. This specific code indicates abnormal flow in the evaporative emission control system under high-load conditions. Simply put, it means the vehicle's emission control system exhibits excessive airflow during acceleration or hill-climbing scenarios. Common causes observed in the Geely Binyue include carbon canister clogging, stuck vent valves, or minor pipeline leaks. If left unaddressed, this may lead to emission exceedances affecting environmental inspections, and even slightly increased fuel consumption. I recommend immediately using a diagnostic tool to read data streams for pinpointing faulty components, while simultaneously inspecting fuel tank and hose connections. Regular maintenance involving carbon canister cleaning can prevent such issues, ensuring stable overall vehicle performance.

What is the size of the Sylphy wiper blades?

The size of the Sylphy wiper blades is 26+14 inches, and they use a U-type interface. Extended content: The difference between parallel wipers and opposed wipers: 1. Parallel wipers can use slightly shorter wiper blades (the wiper on the co-pilot side is usually shorter), and can be paired with a smaller wiper motor, so this type of wiper is generally more economical. Due to the shorter wiper on the co-pilot side, there is a higher chance of a blind spot in the upper right corner of the co-pilot side during the wiping process. 2. Compared to parallel wipers, opposed wipers have longer linkage mechanisms and require more space in the water channel for installation, so the cost is generally higher than that of parallel wipers. Additionally, the coverage area of the co-pilot side wiper in opposed wipers is larger than that in parallel wipers, resulting in relatively smaller blind spots. However, opposed wipers are more prone to water accumulation in the middle of the windshield, which can affect visibility.

Is it illegal to apply reflective stickers on cars?

Chinese regulations only require trucks to apply reflective strips to enhance safety during nighttime driving. There are no explicit rules for private cars—applying them is optional. However, if applied, they must be installed according to requirements; otherwise, drivers may face penalties if discovered by traffic police. The vehicle's exterior must meet the following requirements: 1. Components such as bumpers, rearview mirrors, and lower mirrors should be intact. 2. Windshield glass must be complete, with no cracks or damage in the driver's line of sight, and no mirrored reflective sunshade film should be applied to any windshield. 3. The vehicle body should be symmetrical, with height differences between left and right symmetrical parts complying with GB7258 standards. 4. The exterior should not exhibit obvious mirrored reflections, nor should it have any components or protrusions that could endanger pedestrians, cyclists, or other traffic participants, including sharp edges or corners. 5. The body (or cabin) and its paint should not show significant rust or damage. 6. Sprayed or pasted logos or advertisements on the body should not affect safe driving.

Should the Old Battery Be Kept When Replacing a Car Battery?

When replacing a car battery, the old battery can be recycled. It can be directly sold to battery stores for recycling. After replacing the battery, the original battery is of no use to the vehicle owner and is difficult to store. Moreover, if it leaks, it can affect surrounding items. Here are some tips for car battery maintenance: 1. Avoid leaving the vehicle parked for extended periods: The battery installed in the car will self-discharge over time if left unused. It is best to drive the car at least once a week, with a trip duration of at least 20 minutes, to allow the battery to recharge while driving. 2. Close windows before turning off the engine: The power for operating the car's windows and sunroof comes from the battery. Therefore, it is advisable to close all windows before turning off the engine, rather than after, or even using the long-press lock button method to close the windows after leaving the car. 3. Keep the battery clean and tidy: Regular inspections are an effective way to extend the life of a car battery. Use a professional battery electrode brush or an old toothbrush to clean dust and corrosion from the battery's positive and negative terminals. Applying petroleum jelly or a fatty substance to the contact surfaces can form a protective film.
