As an ordinary commuter, I believe the 15,000 km maintenance mainly involves engine oil and oil filter replacement to ensure smooth engine lubrication and prevent wear; check the air filter and replace it if it's too dusty, otherwise it affects performance; don't forget to rotate the tires to balance wear and extend lifespan; conduct a thorough brake system inspection including brake pads and fluid level, safety comes first; also check the coolant level, lighting condition, and windshield washer fluid. I prefer taking the maintenance manual to an authorized service center for peace of mind and convenience. Remember these small steps can avoid major repair costs and keep your car running smoothly with confidence.

What Mileage Counts as a New Car?

Generally, a mileage of less than 30 kilometers is considered a new car. Methods to determine if it's a new car: 1. Check the nameplate: Verify the displacement, manufacturing date, chassis number, engine number, etc., on the nameplate. The numbers on the certificate of conformity must match the engine number and chassis number on the car. 2. Body paint: Carefully inspect the paint on all parts, especially areas prone to scratches during transportation. The surface color should be coordinated, uniform, full, smooth, and free of pinholes. 3. Window glass: Check for any damage or scratches on the glass, with a focus on the visual effect of the front windshield. 4. Tires: Inspect the tires for any wear, cracks, or bubbles, and check if the rims are clean, perfect, and free of dents or scratches.

How to Deal with Frost on Car Windows in Winter Mornings?

Solutions for frost on car windows in winter mornings: 1. Start the engine and let the vehicle warm up for a while. Then, adjust the fan position to the front glass and turn on the fan. Set it to hot air mode, and the frost will melt automatically after blowing for a while; 2. Use a credit card, bank card, membership card, or any hard card to directly scrape off the frost. These items are much less hard than glass, allowing you to quickly and safely remove the frost without damaging the glass. Frost forms on car windows because the outside temperature is too low, causing the glass temperature to drop. Inside the car, a lot of water vapor attaches to the inner surface of the windshield, leading to frost formation. Based on this principle, after parking at night, don't rush to lock the car. First, open both doors to let the hot air inside the car escape. Generally, ventilating for about five minutes can reduce the temperature difference between the inside and outside of the car, effectively preventing frost on the glass.

What does the plus and minus sign on D gear mean?

D gear with a plus and minus sign indicates the manual mode of the transmission. First, press the brake and pull the gear lever downward to shift into D gear, then push the lever to the right to engage the manual mode. When you need to shift gears, push the lever forward to upshift by one gear or pull it backward to downshift by one gear. The D gear in an automatic transmission does not have the engine braking function and will continuously shift to higher gears as the speed increases downhill, causing the vehicle to go faster and faster. This requires constant use of the foot brake to control the speed, which can easily lead to overheating and failure of the brakes due to excessive use, posing a significant danger. Therefore, when driving an automatic transmission car on a long downhill slope, never use the D gear to avoid accidents.

What Causes Abnormal Noise in the Engine Water Pump?

Reasons for abnormal noise in the engine water pump: 1. Damaged water pump bearing; 2. Broken fan blades in the water pump, where high-velocity water flow drives the detached blades to collide; 3. Overheating of the water pump. The self-priming pump is a type of self-priming centrifugal pump, featuring a compact structure, easy operation, stable performance, simple maintenance, high efficiency, long lifespan, and strong self-priming capability. Working principle of the water pump: Before starting the pump, fill the pump casing with water or ensure the casing already contains water. Upon starting, the impeller rotates at high speed, directing the water in the impeller channels toward the volute. This creates a vacuum at the inlet, opening the check valve and allowing air from the suction pipe to enter the pump, then flowing through the impeller channels to the outer edge.

Do You Need to Press the Accelerator When Reversing?

Whether you need to press the accelerator when reversing depends on the actual situation. For example, on a slope, the car may not move without pressing the accelerator, in which case it is certainly necessary to press it. However, in most cases, you do not need to press the accelerator and can rely mainly on idle speed, especially for beginners—it is recommended not to press the accelerator if possible. When you do press the accelerator, it must be done lightly; avoid pressing it hard. This is primarily for safety reasons, as reversing makes it difficult to see what's behind in time, and pressing the accelerator hard in such situations can easily lead to accidents. When reversing, frequently check the side mirrors and the rearview mirror inside the car to ensure there are no obstacles around the vehicle before proceeding, to ensure safety.
