The Chery E3 comes with factory-fitted 185/60 R15 tires, which means a tread width of 185 mm, an aspect ratio of 60%, and a rim diameter of 15 inches. This tire size provides a comfortable ride in the city, with minimal bumpiness over speed bumps, and sufficient grip for highway driving. I remember my E3 originally came with Giti tires, which lasted over 30,000 kilometers before needing replacement. Later, I switched to Dunlop tires of the same size and noticed a significant reduction in noise. The sidewall of the tire also shows the parameter 86H, where 86 is the load index, indicating a maximum load capacity of 530 kg, and H represents a maximum speed of 210 km/h—don’t overlook this when replacing tires. The maintenance manual recommends keeping the tire pressure between 2.3-2.5 bar and checking it monthly.

I've been driving the E3 for five years, and the original tires were 185/60 R15. One winter after heavy snow, I noticed the tread was nearly worn out, so I promptly replaced them with a set of Michelin tires in the same size. The mechanic said this size is the most suitable for the 15-inch rims on this car, with just the right sidewall thickness, making them more durable against impacts compared to thinner tires. When changing tires, be careful not to damage the rim edges during installation, and always get a wheel balance after replacement. Last time I skipped it, and the steering wheel started shaking at speeds over 80 km/h. This size of tire costs around 300 RMB each online, and about 50 RMB more at physical stores, but installation is included. It's recommended to use new tires on the front wheels and older ones on the rear for more stable steering.

The tire size for the Chery E3 is 185/60 R15, which can be seen on the door frame nameplate. Never skimp on cost by changing the tire size—I've seen people switch to 195, resulting in heavier steering and rubbing against the wheel arches. The series of numbers on the tire sidewall, such as '3718', indicates the production date: the last two digits '18' stand for 2018, and '37' means the 37th week. Tires must be replaced when the tread depth is below 1.6 mm. Insert a one-yuan coin into the tread—if the top of the national emblem is visible, it's time to change. Rotate your tires every 8,000 km, crossing front to rear to extend their lifespan.

can ypu put any type of washer fluid in car

No, you cannot safely use just any type of washer fluid in your car. Using the wrong fluid can lead to clogged nozzles, damaged pumps, poor cleaning performance, and even safety hazards in freezing conditions. The primary considerations are the fluid's formulation for your climate and its compatibility with your vehicle's components. The most critical factor is the freezing point . Using a summer-grade fluid in winter can cause it to freeze in the reservoir and lines, potentially cracking the tank and disabling the entire system. Always choose a fluid with a freezing point well below the coldest temperatures you expect. For most winter conditions, a fluid rated for -20°F to -34°F is sufficient. Beyond temperature, specialized formulas offer different benefits. All-season fluids provide a good balance of cleaning and freeze protection. Bug-removal formulas contain stronger solvents to dissolve insect residue. De-icer fluids have a lower freezing point and often contain methanol to help melt light ice on the windshield. Some premium fluids also include water repellents (like Rain-X formulas) that cause water to bead and roll off the glass. It's generally advised to avoid homemade solutions, like mixing water with dish soap or vinegar. These can leave residues, damage the vehicle's paint, and lack antifreeze properties. For most drivers, a quality, name-brand all-season fluid is the safest and most convenient choice. Washer Fluid Type Primary Use Case Key Feature / Additive Typical Freezing Point Best For All-Season Year-round general use Balanced cleaning agents 32°F to -20°F Mild climates with occasional cold snaps De-icer / Winter Winter driving Methanol for melting ice -20°F to -34°F Regions with consistent freezing temperatures Bug Remover Summer / highway driving Strong solvents for insect residue 32°F (often not for freezing temps) Clearing bug splatter effectively Concentrated Custom mixing / cost-saving Mixed with water to desired strength Varies by dilution ratio Drivers who want to control the mixture Water-Repellent Rainy conditions Silicone polymers for beading Varies by brand Improving visibility during rain

do you keep license plates when selling car

No, you generally do not leave your license plates on the car when you sell it privately in most states. The standard rule is that license plates stay with the seller, not the vehicle. This is a critical step to protect yourself from liability for parking tickets, toll violations, or even crimes committed with the car after you've sold it. The specific procedure, however, varies significantly depending on your state's Department of Motor Vehicles (DMV) laws. In states like California, New York, and Ohio , you are required to remove your plates upon sale. You then typically have to return them to the DMV or officially transfer them to a new vehicle you own. The buyer is responsible for obtaining new plates and registration. Conversely, in a handful of states including Texas, Georgia, and Florida , the license plate often stays with the car when sold. The new owner transfers the registration into their name. Because the rules are so different, verifying your state's specific requirements is the single most important action you must take. State Plate Stays with Seller or Car? Key Action for Seller Reason California Seller Remove plates; may surrender to DMV Severs liability New York Seller Remove plates; can transfer to new car Prevents future tickets/fines Texas Car Leave plates on; notify DMV of sale Registration transfers with vehicle Florida Car Leave plates on; finalize sale online Streamlines process for new owner Ohio Seller Remove plates; submit transfer form Officially documents change of ownership The universal step across all states is to complete a bill of sale and notify your state's DMV immediately that you are no longer the owner. This creates a legal paper trail that the vehicle is no longer your responsibility. Always check your local DMV website for the exact steps to avoid any legal or financial headaches down the road.

can you use white out on scratches for cars

Using white-out (correction fluid) on car scratches is not recommended. It is a temporary, cosmetic fix that can cause more harm than good. White-out is designed for paper, not automotive paint. It doesn't bond properly, often creates a mismatched, lumpy appearance, and can damage the clear coat when you try to remove it. For a proper repair, the correct approach depends on the scratch depth. To assess the damage, run your fingernail over the scratch. If your nail doesn't catch, it's likely a clear coat scratch that can often be polished out. If it catches slightly, it's a base coat scratch requiring touch-up paint. If it feels deep, it's a primer or metal scratch needing professional attention. For minor scratches, a proper repair kit is a far better investment than white-out. Here’s a comparison of common scratch types and solutions: Scratch Depth Description Recommended Solution Why White-Out Fails Clear Coat Scratch Surface-level, often looks hazy Professional polishing compound or scratch remover Cannot be polished out; will smear and create a mess Base Coat Scratch Through the clear coat, exposing colored paint OEM or high-quality touch-up paint, applied with a fine brush Poor color match, incorrect chemical composition, lacks durability Primer/Metal Scratch Deep, exposing grey primer or bare metal Professional sanding, priming, and repainting Offers zero corrosion protection; moisture will seep underneath and cause rust The solvents in white-out can soften and degrade your car's clear coat over time, making a proper repair later more difficult and expensive. For a quick, safe cover-up until you can fix it properly, a dedicated wax-based scratch cover-up product is designed to fill shallow scratches without damaging the paint. Ultimately, using the right product for the job protects your car's value and appearance.

does walmart install car batteries for free

No, Walmart does not install car batteries for free. The installation service comes with a standard fee, which is a separate charge from the cost of the battery itself. However, if you purchase a Walmart car battery, the installation fee is typically very reasonable, often around $10 to $20. This service is provided at stores with an Auto Care Center and is a convenient option for those who prefer not to handle the installation themselves. The process is straightforward. You drive your vehicle to the Auto Care Center, and a trained technician will handle the replacement. This includes safely removing the old battery, installing the new one, and ensuring the connections are secure. They will also properly dispose of your old battery, which is an included benefit. It's important to note that installation is not available for all vehicle types, particularly some hybrid or electric models, or cars where the battery is located in a hard-to-reach area like the trunk or wheel well. Before heading to the store, it's a good idea to call your local Walmart to confirm their Auto Care Center's hours and battery installation service availability. While you can walk in, making an appointment can save you waiting time. The main value proposition is the combination of a competitively priced battery and a low-cost, professional installation performed while you shop. Service Aspect Details Installation Fee Typically between $10 - $20 (plus the cost of the battery) Service Location Available at most Walmart stores with an Auto Care Center Included Services Installation, terminal cleaning, and old battery disposal Vehicle Limitations Not all vehicles are eligible (e.g., some hybrids, complex European models) Appointment Recommended Walk-ins accepted, but an appointment can reduce wait times Warranty Consideration Professional installation often helps maintain the battery's warranty

how can i get the error cade from car issue

You can get the error code from your car's issue by using an On-Board Diagnostics (OBD-II) scanner , which plugs into a port usually found under the dashboard. The code will help you identify the specific problem, but it's just the first step in the diagnostic process. The most common and effective method is using a code reader or a scan tool . Every car made after 1996 is equipped with a standardized OBD-II port. You can buy a basic code reader for around $30-$50, or use a more advanced Bluetooth scanner that pairs with a smartphone app. The process is straightforward: locate the port (typically near the driver's knees under the dash), plug in the scanner, turn the ignition to the "on" position (without starting the engine), and follow the device's instructions to retrieve the codes. The codes themselves are alphanumeric. A generic code, starting with a "P0" (e.g., P0300 - Random/Multiple Cylinder Misfire Detected), is standard across all brands. A manufacturer-specific code, starting with a "P1" (e.g., P1131 for a specific Toyota issue), provides more detailed information unique to your car. Common OBD-II Trouble Codes & Their Meanings P0420 P0301 P0442 P0128 P0171 It's crucial to remember that a trouble code points to a problem within a system, not necessarily the exact failed part. For example, a P0420 code indicates the catalytic converter isn't working efficiently, but this could be caused by a faulty oxygen sensor, an exhaust leak, or the converter itself. After getting the code, you'll need to perform further diagnostics or consult a professional mechanic to pinpoint the root cause before replacing parts.

does car seat go behind driver or passenger

The safest place for a car seat is the rear center seat , as studies show it can reduce the risk of injury by up to 43% compared to the window seats. If the center position is unavailable or doesn't have a proper LATCH system or seat belt for a secure installation, the spot behind the passenger seat is generally the next best option. This placement allows the driver to more easily reach a child, slightly improves visibility when checking mirrors, and is often safer for curbside drop-offs and pick-ups. Safety is the primary consideration. The center of the back seat is the farthest from any point of impact in a side collision. However, not all vehicles have LATCH anchors in the center position. You must check your vehicle's owner's manual to confirm. A properly installed car seat in a window position is far safer than an incorrectly installed one in the center. Driver vs. Passenger Side: Practical Considerations While safety is nearly equal for the two outboard positions, practical factors often favor the passenger side. It allows you to safely attend to your child on the sidewalk side of the vehicle, away from traffic. For the driver, it's also easier to glance back and check on a child when they are seated behind the front passenger. Ultimately, the best position is the one where you can achieve a rock-solid installation with less than one inch of movement at the belt path. Consult both your car seat manual and your vehicle's manual for specific installation guidelines. Factor Behind Passenger Seat Behind Driver Seat Center Rear Seat Ease of Access for Driver High (curbside access) Low (traffic-side access) Moderate Risk of Side-Impact Lower than driver's side Higher than passenger side Lowest (43% safer) LATCH System Availability Standard in most vehicles Standard in most vehicles Less common Mirror Visibility Good (easier to see child) Poorer (blocked by driver) Good Safest for Curb-Side Drop-off Yes No Yes
