Roewe i5 right turn signal malfunction mainly involves checking the related wiring of the turn signal, inspecting the central control box (likely a BCM setting issue) for faults, or checking for any short circuits in the turn signal wiring. Check the anti-theft device host. Open the back cover of the host, follow the two brown wires of the plug, and you can see the relay along the circuit board. Carefully scrape it open with a blade and treat the contacts with sandpaper to see. Below is relevant information about turn signals: 1. Function of turn signals: Turn signals are controlled by electronic devices, but they still simulate the clicking sound of a relay with audio. They are activated when the vehicle is turning to alert the driver that the turn signal is flashing and to draw the attention of vehicles in front, behind, and to the sides, as well as pedestrians. 2. Types of turn signals: Turn signals use flashers to achieve light flashing. They can mainly be divided into three types: resistance wire type, capacitor type, and electronic type. The resistance wire type can be further divided into thermal wire type (electrothermal type) and vane type (bounce type), while the electronic type can be divided into hybrid type (with contact-type relays and electronic components) and fully electronic type (without relays).

What is the difference between before and after the first car maintenance?

The difference between before and after the first car maintenance is: fuel consumption may change, the car's acceleration may become more responsive during driving, and the car will be inspected during the first maintenance, ensuring better driving safety. Here are some precautions regarding the first car maintenance: 1. When scheduling the first maintenance, owners need to make an appointment in advance to save time and avoid waiting in line. 2. When changing the engine oil during the first maintenance, it is necessary to first drain the old oil containing debris from the engine. The first maintenance is usually free. During daily driving, owners should record the car's performance and provide feedback to the technician during the first maintenance to avoid encountering issues during use. 3. After the first maintenance, the car should generally be serviced every 5,000 kilometers. Even if the car is not used frequently, timely maintenance is still necessary to prevent problems with various components and ensure driving safety. 4. During the first oil change, many 4S shops drain the old oil from the engine through the oil pan drain bolt. This method may not completely remove all the old oil from the engine. A specialized oil suction device can be used to extract the oil more thoroughly. 5. During the first maintenance, various components of the car should be inspected, including all types of fluids and tire pressure. The car's lights should also be checked to ensure they function properly.

What is the impact of widening tires by 10mm on a car?

The specific impacts of widening tires by 10mm on a car are as follows: 1. Positive effects: The tires become more low-profile, making the vehicle appear more upscale; low-profile tires are beneficial for the vehicle to achieve higher speeds. 2. Negative effects: The tire radius decreases, reducing the ground clearance and slightly worsening the vehicle's off-road capability; wider tires increase the possibility of rubbing between the tires and the vehicle. Additional information: Other impacts: Replacing the car's tires with ones that are 10mm wider can increase the fuel consumption by approximately 0.5 to 1 liter per 100 kilometers. The exact increase in fuel consumption is closely related to the road conditions and the driver's habits. Wider tires increase resistance, leading to higher fuel consumption, but they also slightly alter the turning angle, improving handling.

Can You Press the Clutch During Curve Driving?

When driving on curves, you need to half-press the clutch to control the speed. Details to pay attention to when pressing the clutch: 1. Quick: Press the clutch quickly and all the way down. Only by controlling the clutch well can you achieve perfect speed control and avoid missing key points. 2. Slow release: The clutch should be released slowly. When the speed is relatively slow, you can release the clutch more; when the speed is fast, press the clutch slightly. Note that when stopping, you should first press the clutch pedal and then the brake. If done the opposite way—pressing the brake directly first—it can easily cause the engine to stall and give the car a jerky feeling.

Can a 4S store conduct third-party inspections?

4S stores can perform inspections, but the cost is not cheap. The content about 4S stores is as follows: 1. Introduction to 4S stores: The reason why car stores are called 4S stores is mainly because they provide a one-stop service integrating four functions: vehicle sales, spare parts, after-sales service, and information feedback. Since the first letters of these four services in English are all 'S,' they are named 4S stores. They are authorized by car manufacturers and reflect a comprehensive service system. Currently, some developed regions have 6S stores, offering even more integrated services. 2. Origin of 4S stores: 4S stores were first introduced to China in 1998 by Guangzhou Honda as an imported concept. They established close production and sales relationships with various manufacturers, offering advantages such as a good shopping environment and strong brand awareness, which greatly promoted product sales. Subsequently, they were emulated by major car manufacturers. The construction of 4S stores follows the unified design of car manufacturers, involving huge investments, and the stores are quite luxurious and impressive. 3. Additional information: The emergence of 4S stores precisely meets various user needs. They can provide well-equipped and clean maintenance areas, modern equipment and service management, a highly professional atmosphere, well-maintained service facilities, ample spare parts supply, and a rapid and timely tracking service system. Through the services of 4S stores, users can develop trust in the brand, thereby increasing sales. Car 4S stores are invested in and built by dealers according to the standards set by car manufacturers, with unified interior and exterior designs, huge investments often exceeding tens of millions, luxurious and impressive, and comfortable environments. They can only sell single-brand cars specially authorized by the manufacturer, providing customers with lower prices, more professional technical support, and more in-depth after-sales services.

What are the causes of car engine failures?

There are several causes of car engine failures: 1. Deteriorated engine oil: Lubricants of different grades will undergo quality changes during use. After a certain mileage, their performance deteriorates, which may cause various engine problems. To prevent these failures, oil should be changed regularly according to usage conditions, with the oil level maintained between the upper and lower marks on the dipstick. 2. Dirty intake pipes: The intake pipe is crucial for normal engine operation. Excessive dirt in the intake pipe reduces charging efficiency, preventing the engine from operating within its normal power output range and accelerating engine wear and aging. 3. Poor cooling system: A faulty cooling system directly prevents the engine from operating at normal temperatures. Common engine failures such as piston scuffing, knocking, cylinder leakage, severe noise, and reduced acceleration power are all caused by abnormal engine operating temperatures, excessive pressure, and poor cooling system conditions.

How to Sign a Used Car Contract Safely?

Transferring and buying/selling a used car, even without transferring ownership, and only signing a transfer agreement, such an agreement has legal validity. An agreement is legally synonymous with a contract. As long as the agreement clearly, specifically, and affirmatively stipulates the rights and obligations of both parties to the sales contract, even if the written document is titled "agreement" or "memorandum of agreement," once signed and confirmed by both parties, it is as binding as a contract on both the buyer and the seller. The following points should be noted when purchasing a used car: 1. Identify reputable dealers: When buying a car, make sure to choose a reputable dealer so that any issues discovered after purchase can be effectively addressed; also, be cautious about those online used car websites—while they can be trusted, they should not be fully relied upon. 2. Pay attention to the mileage: This point mainly applies to decommissioned commercial vehicles. For such vehicles, it’s not just the mileage that’s an issue, but also the service life. Commercial vehicles are mandatorily scrapped after eight years, so by the time you get one, there may only be a year or two of usable life left. 3. How to choose a car: After considering the channels for buying a car, the next step is to look at how to select a car: First, you can browse online to see if there are any models you like, then compare the prices of vehicles on the website (for reference only); once you’ve made your choice, you can visit a used car market to browse and see if there are any models that catch your eye.
