In terms of wheel design, the K2 features multi-spoke aluminum alloy wheels. The top-tier model uses Hankook tires paired with 16-inch aluminum alloy mirror-finish wheels. If you want to replace the tires yourself, you can follow these steps: Take out the spare tire and jack, place the jack under the frame of the tire to be replaced, ensuring the jack touches the metal part of the frame; Raise the jack until it supports the car, the jack should be positioned under the vehicle, check and ensure the jack is at a right angle to the ground; Remove the hubcap, loosen the nuts counterclockwise, do not fully loosen them, just enough to eliminate resistance. When loosening the nuts for the first time, keeping the tire on the ground ensures that the nuts turn, not the tire; Turn the nuts counterclockwise until they come off, repeat this step for all lug nuts, and completely remove the nuts; Place the new tire on the wheel hub, carefully align the tire rim with the wheel bolts, install the lug nuts, and hand-tighten them until all nuts are concealed. At this point, the tire replacement is complete. In addition to the model, the following common data are also marked on the tire: Tire cord material: represented by Chinese pinyin, such as M-cotton cord, R-rayon cord, N-nylon cord, G-steel cord, ZG-steel radial cord tire. Speed rating: indicates the maximum speed at which the tire can carry a specified load under specified conditions. Letters A to Z represent the certified speed ratings of tires from 4.8km/h to 300km/h. Common speed ratings include: Q: 160km/h; H: 210km/h; V: 240km/h; W: 270km/h; Y: 300km/h; Rim specification: indicates the rim specification compatible with the tire, facilitating practical use, such as "Standard Rim 5.00F".

What is the difference between fully synthetic engine oil 5w30 and 5w40?

The difference between fully synthetic engine oil 5w30 and 5w40 lies in their viscosity: fully synthetic engine oil 5w30 has a viscosity of 30, while fully synthetic engine oil 5w40 has a viscosity of 40. In simple terms, 5w40 oil has higher viscosity than 5w30, providing better protection under high-temperature conditions. On the other hand, 5w30 flows better than 5w40, helping to reduce fuel consumption. The choice of engine oil should be based on the specifications in the car manual, as not all manufacturers' engines are designed the same. American engines, for example, are relatively more precise (with smaller gaps), making 5w30 oil (lower viscosity) more suitable. German cars typically have turbocharged engines with larger gaps, requiring the use of 5w40 oil (higher viscosity). Japanese and Korean cars often use oils with viscosities of 20 or 30, while European cars use oils with a viscosity of 40.

Is Lexus Fuel-Efficient?

Lexus models vary in fuel consumption, and whether they are fuel-efficient depends on the specific model. Below are detailed factors affecting fuel consumption: 1. Low Tire Pressure or Severe Tread Wear: Increased contact area between tires and the road surface leads to greater friction and rolling resistance, naturally resulting in higher fuel consumption. While higher tire pressure may slightly improve fuel efficiency, it compromises ride comfort and increases the risk of tire blowouts. 2. Heavy Load: Frequent transportation of heavy loads will increase fuel consumption. Similarly, poor road conditions with frequent stops and starts also elevate fuel usage. 3. Driving Habits: Driving style is another hidden factor. Smooth acceleration and linear driving are more fuel-efficient, whereas aggressive behaviors like rapid acceleration, frequent braking, repeated engine starts, and unnecessary revving waste fuel. Since a car's mechanical performance cannot respond instantly, such habits lead to higher consumption. Higher-quality gasoline ensures more complete combustion, lowering fuel consumption, while impure gasoline with more impurities increases it.

What transmission does the Jetour X70M use?

Jetour X70M uses two types of transmissions in total, one is a 6-speed manual transmission, and the other is a 6-speed dual-clutch transmission. The dual-clutch transmission is developed based on the manual transmission. The structure of this transmission is similar to that of a manual transmission, with the dual-clutch transmission only adding an extra set of clutch and a set of shift control mechanism compared to the manual transmission. Here are some related introductions about the Jetour X70M: 1. The front grille size has been further increased compared to previous models, while the four pearl lights in the fog light areas on both sides are retained, but with a more angular design, providing a strong visual impact. The side adopts a dual waistline design, extending from the front to the rear of the car, enhancing its sense of layering. 2. The interior has been updated with light-colored wood grain trim panels, improving the sense of luxury. The 10.1-inch central LCD screen continues to be used, but it has been upgraded with a new vehicle infotainment system.

What is the difference between automatic air conditioning and manual air conditioning in cars?

The difference between automatic air conditioning and manual air conditioning in cars lies in the operation method: automatic air conditioning does not require frequent operation. Once the temperature is set, the air conditioning will automatically maintain the stable temperature inside the car at this value; manual air conditioning can only adjust the air volume manually. Car automatic air conditioning is now controlled by a computer. A well-designed car computer-controlled air conditioning system can not only automatically adjust the temperature, humidity, cleanliness, air volume, and air direction inside the car but also perform fault detection. The automatic adjustment functions of car air conditioning include automatic adjustment of temperature and humidity inside the car, automatic control of air recirculation and supply modes, as well as control functions such as operation mode and ventilation volume control.

What is the freezing point of antifreeze?

Antifreeze has freezing points of -15°C, -25°C, -30°C, and -40°C. When selecting antifreeze, it is generally advisable to choose one with a freezing point at least 10°C lower than the lowest temperature in your region. Can different antifreeze brands be mixed: It is necessary to use the same brand of antifreeze. Different brands of antifreeze may have varying production formulas, and mixing them could lead to chemical reactions between additives, rendering them ineffective. How to determine if antifreeze is low: Observe the antifreeze warning light on the dashboard. If it lights up, it is likely due to low antifreeze levels, though it could also be caused by excessively high engine temperature. Check the antifreeze reservoir. If the fluid level is below the minimum mark (MIN), do not continue driving; add antifreeze promptly. Check the fluid level markings on the antifreeze tank. The antifreeze level should normally be between the maximum and minimum marks. If it is below the minimum mark, it indicates a lack of antifreeze.

How to reset the tire pressure light on Dongfeng Fengshen Yixuan?

Dongfeng Fengshen Yixuan tire pressure light reset method: First, turn on the ignition switch, press and hold the tire pressure monitoring reset button until you hear a "ding" sound, then release it. The tire pressure monitoring system will store the current normal tire pressure data, automatically clear the previous data, and finally the dashboard warning light will turn off, completing the tire pressure reset. Abnormal tire pressure is generally caused by the following 3 reasons: Abnormal tire pressure: Usually, an alarm will sound if the pressure is below 1.8 bar or above 3.0 bar. In this case, tire inspection and pressure adjustment are required. Tire pressure monitoring not reset: After inflating the tires, if the tire pressure is not reset in time, the tire pressure monitoring system will still record the previous data, causing the tire pressure monitoring indicator light to turn on. Simply perform a tire pressure reset to resolve this. Damaged tire pressure sensor: The tire pressure sensor is used to monitor tire pressure and is directly installed inside the tire, connected to the tire inflation valve. If the tire pressure sensor is damaged due to impact while driving, it will also cause the tire pressure warning light to turn on. For sensor damage issues, only replacement with a new part is possible.
