The small light below the car headlight is called a fog light. Here are specific details about fog lights: Types: In addition to the front high beams, low beams, headlights, and small lights, and the rear running lights and brake lights, most cars also have a set of fog lights installed in inconspicuous locations at the rear. Rear fog lights are red signal lights installed at the rear of the vehicle to make it easier for other road traffic participants to spot the vehicle in low-visibility conditions such as fog, snow, rain, or dust. These lights have a higher luminous intensity than tail lights. Position: Fog lights are installed at the front of the car, slightly lower than the headlights, and are used to illuminate the road during rainy or foggy weather. Because visibility is low in foggy conditions, the driver's line of sight is limited. The lights can increase the visible distance, especially yellow fog lights, which have strong light penetration. They enhance the visibility for both the driver and other traffic participants, allowing approaching vehicles and pedestrians to spot each other from a greater distance.

The Ghibli is a mid-to-large luxury sedan, while the Quattroporte is a full-size luxury sedan. The Quattroporte has larger body dimensions, better comfort, and more powerful performance. Appearance: Quattroporte: The front bumper is split below, the hood extends to the edge of the headlights, and the middle of the hood is recessed. Ghibli: The front bumper is integrated, the hood is set back from the headlights, and the middle of the hood is raised. Body dimensions: The Maserati Ghibli measures 4974mm in length, 1945mm in width, and 1484mm in height, with a wheelbase of 2998mm. The Quattroporte measures 5262mm in length, 1948mm in width, and 1481mm in height, with a wheelbase of 3171mm. The Quattroporte offers more spacious and comfortable rear seating. Configurations: The Quattroporte comes with features such as adaptive suspension, a power trunk, hands-free trunk access, keyless entry for all doors, power-adjustable steering wheel, steering wheel memory, heated front and rear seats, a Harman Kardon audio system with 10 speakers, heated washer nozzles, rear independent air conditioning, and power rear window sunshades. These features are standard on the Quattroporte but optional on the Ghibli. Powertrain: The Maserati Quattroporte is equipped with a 3.0T V6 turbocharged engine, delivering a maximum power of 257 kW (350 hp) and peak torque of 500 Nm. It is paired with an 8-speed automatic transmission, achieving a 0-100 km/h acceleration time of 5.5 seconds and a top speed of 270 km/h. The Maserati Ghibli is equipped with a 2.0T engine paired with a 48V mild hybrid system, delivering a maximum power of 243 kW (330 hp) and peak torque of 450 Nm. It is also paired with an 8-speed automatic transmission, achieving a 0-100 km/h acceleration time of 5.7 seconds and a top speed of 255 km/h. The Maserati Ghibli was designed by Italian designer Lorenzo Ramaciotti, incorporating elements from the sixth-generation Quattroporte and GranTurismo. The Ghibli's cabin features dual-tone leather upholstery sourced from the Italian high-end furniture brand Poltrona Frau, and the premium Bowers & Wilkins audio system is available as an optional upgrade. The Ghibli shares its subframe and electronically controlled suspension system with the sixth-generation Quattroporte, but the Ghibli's tuning is more focused on handling.

How Often Should the Spark Plugs of Arrizo 7 Be Replaced?

The spark plugs of Arrizo 7 should be replaced every 30,000 kilometers. The selection of spark plugs can be based on the engine's compression ratio to make the engine more stable, such as NGK spark plugs and ESE ignition wires, engine speed, and air-fuel ratio. High-compression ratio engines require spark plugs with high-temperature resistance, while low-compression ratio engines need spark plugs with correspondingly lower temperature resistance. The Arrizo 7 is a self-owned brand car of Chery Automobile. In terms of power configuration, it is equipped with a 1.6L DVVT engine, which can deliver a maximum power of 93 kW and a peak torque of 160 Nm, paired with a CVT continuously variable transmission independently developed by Chery.

Where is the cabin air filter located in Changan Oushang?

The cabin air filter in Changan Oushang is located inside the glove compartment in front of the front passenger seat, and the glove compartment needs to be removed for replacement. The car's cabin air filter can separate solid impurities such as dust, pollen, and abrasive particles from the air, and also absorb moisture, soot, ozone, odors, carbon oxides, SO2, CO2, etc., with strong and long-lasting moisture absorption. Changan Oushang is a passenger car brand under the Changan Automobile Group, with products including: Changan Oushang Kosai, Changan Oushang Koshang, Changan Oushang X70A, Changan Oushang CX70T, Changan Oushang A800, Changan Oushang A600, and Changan Oushang Kosai GT.

What does 8-speed Tiptronic mean?

Eight-speed Tiptronic refers to an automatic transmission with eight forward gears and a manual mode. The automatic gear positions from top to bottom are: P (Park); R (Reverse); N (Neutral); D (Drive); S (Sport); and +/- for switching to manual simulated gear shifting. Tiptronic transmission combines the manual and automatic shifting methods of a car. This transmission integrates the advantages of both automatic and manual transmissions, minimizing power loss in the shifting system. The manual mode allows drivers to freely adjust gears and RPMs according to their subjective preferences. Unlike a pure manual transmission car, a Tiptronic-equipped vehicle has a clutch mechanism but operates automatically—meaning the clutch is controlled automatically. When using the manual mode in a Tiptronic car, the driver only needs to switch to manual mode and adjust the gears up or down based on speed changes. If the speed does not match the corresponding gear, the transmission will automatically downshift; if the speed exceeds the current gear, the driver must manually upshift. Working Principle: Structurally, the Tiptronic transmission mainly consists of a conventional gearbox (similar to a manual transmission), an electronically controlled clutch, an automatic gear-shifting mechanism, and an electronic control unit. The electronically controlled clutch automatically engages, disengages, or partially engages the clutch as needed. During operation, the transmission ECU controls a stepper motor to move the clutch fork, engaging or disengaging the clutch. The automatic gear-shifting mechanism automatically selects the appropriate gear as required, typically using two stepper motors controlled by the transmission ECU. The gear lever setup is similar to that of a conventional automatic transmission, with no clutch pedal. Essentially, the transmission uses automatic control to simulate manual gear shifting. Under normal driving conditions, it operates similarly to a hydraulic automatic transmission. However, when stationary, the clutch is disengaged, so the driver must apply the brake on slopes to prevent rolling. In manual mode, the driving experience resembles that of a manual transmission car, with direct power delivery, no need to operate a clutch pedal, and the ability to skip gears when shifting up or down.

Is Throttle Cleaning Necessary?

Throttle cleaning is necessary. A dirty throttle can cause inflexible throttle movement, allowing air entering the engine to carry many impurities, which affects normal gasoline combustion, reduces engine power, and in severe cases, may lead to unstable idling, difficulty starting, and decreased power. It is recommended to clean the throttle every 20,000 to 40,000 kilometers. If the driving environment is harsh, this interval should be shortened. However, excessive cleaning of the throttle should be avoided, as it can lead to premature failure. Frequent cleaning can gradually wear away the special coating inside the throttle's inner chamber. Without this coating, the inner chamber is more prone to oil buildup, creating a vicious cycle that ultimately results in the throttle's failure.
