Baojun 530 uses 5W30 semi-synthetic engine oil with a capacity of 4 liters. The recommended maintenance interval is typically every 6 months or 5,000 kilometers. The Baojun 530 has body dimensions of 4695mm in length, 1835mm in width, and 1750mm in height, with a wheelbase of 2750mm. It is equipped with a 10.4-inch LCD touchscreen that allows drivers to control music playback, make phone calls, and adjust air conditioning settings.

I've been using the Baojun 530 for several years and always stick with 5W-30 engine oil. This viscosity perfectly matches the design of the 1.5T engine—quick starts in winter without any stuttering, and solid engine protection during summer highway drives with stable fuel consumption around 7L/100km. I change the oil every 5,000 km, opting for semi-synthetic or full-synthetic oils meeting at least API SN standards to ensure clean lubrication. The manual recommends this grade because it suits most Chinese climates, balancing cold and hot performance. Using the wrong oil, like 10W-40, leads to slower winter starts and higher fuel consumption, while 5W-20 is too thin and may damage pistons. I also recommend regularly checking the dipstick to ensure proper oil level and cleanliness. This habit keeps my engine quiet and minimizes major repair risks, saving me tens of thousands in maintenance costs. Bottom line: trust the factory recommendations—don’t cut corners with cheap oil swaps.

Why is the right side too wide when reversing into the garage on the right?

The reasons for the right side being too wide when reversing into the garage on the right are: 1. The steering wheel is turned too late when preparing to enter the garage; 2. The steering wheel starts to be returned too early when the distance between the car and the garage corner is still large; 3. The speed is too fast, making it difficult to control the direction and the distance the car moves when reversing into the garage. If the car body is parallel to the garage but the entire car body is biased to the left, if not adjusted, it is easy to press against the left front garage corner when exiting the garage to the left. Therefore, you can first turn the steering wheel a quarter turn to the right, observing that the front wheels do not easily press the line. When the distance on the right side is about right, turn the steering wheel a quarter turn to the left. When the car body is parallel to the garage again, straighten the steering wheel. If the entire car body is biased to the right, the operation method is the same, just in the opposite direction.

What is the normal difference in glass dates for a new car?

It is normal for the production dates of the windows on a new car to be inconsistent. The only exception is that the production date of the glass cannot be later than the production date of the vehicle. Below is an introduction to the production date of the glass: 1. Numbers: The number represents the production year of the glass, indicating the last digit of the year. For example, 8 means 2008. The specific production year can be determined based on the vehicle's manufacturing date. If the vehicle's manufacturing date is in 2007 or 2008, then the glass's year number 8 would be 2008, not 1998, as the difference between the glass and the vehicle's production date would not exceed 10 years. 2. Small dots: The small black dots on the glass indicate the production month. The position of these dots generally falls into two scenarios: some car models have the dots in front of the number, while others have them behind the number. If the dots are in front of the number, subtract the number of dots from 7; if the dots are behind the number, subtract the number of dots from 13. The result obtained is the production month of the glass.

What causes the jerking motion in electric vehicles?

When experiencing jerking during startup, especially during cold starts, it is usually due to a dirty throttle body. Carbon buildup can cause the throttle valve to operate less smoothly, affecting the accuracy of the air-fuel mixture parameters, or sensors may fail to provide accurate feedback to the servo system. Cleaning the throttle body can resolve this issue. Below are the main reasons for jerking during startup: 1. Excessive engine carbon deposits: In the case of a Passat, jerking during startup may be caused by excessive carbon buildup in the engine. Cleaning the throttle body primarily addresses unstable idle speeds and frequent stalling. Excessive carbon deposits in the combustion chamber can increase the engine's compression ratio, creating hot spots that lead to pre-ignition and knocking, shortening the engine's lifespan and significantly reducing its power and fuel efficiency. 2. Carbon buildup in the fuel injectors: Carbon deposits in the fuel injectors can cause uneven fuel distribution among the cylinders, leading to engine shaking or braking issues. When spark plugs are heavily fouled with carbon, they may leak electricity and fail to function properly, resulting in engine vibration. Excessive carbon buildup in the throttle body can cause unstable idling, reduced power, or even stalling. Additionally, it is necessary to check whether the idle control motor is also affected by excessive carbon deposits, contributing to these symptoms.

Is an ID card the only document needed for the Subject 1 exam?

An ID card is sufficient for the exam. The admission ticket and other required documents are handled by the driving school, which will distribute them during the exam. Electronic ID cards cannot be used for the exam. If you don't have an ID card, you can apply for a temporary one, which holds the same validity as a regular ID card. The "Regulations on the Application and Use of Motor Vehicle Driving Licenses" clearly stipulate that the Subject 1 exam can be taken twice on the same day. If you fail the first attempt, you can retake it for free. If you fail the second attempt, the Subject 1 exam will be terminated, and you can only reschedule the exam after ten days. The Subject 1 exam consists of 100 questions, including single-choice and true/false questions, each worth 1 point, totaling 100 points. If you answer 11 questions incorrectly during the exam, the system will automatically submit the test and end the exam. The Subject 1 exam is computer-based and lasts 45 minutes. Subject 1 exam content: regulations on driving licenses and motor vehicle management; road traffic conditions and regulations; traffic safety violations and penalties; regulations on road traffic accident handling; basic knowledge of motor vehicles; local regulations; knowledge of braking systems and safety devices for large and medium-sized buses and trucks; specialized knowledge for wheeled self-propelled machinery, trams, and trolleybuses. Subject 1 exam precautions: Candidates should pay attention to their attire—no slippers are allowed. Electronic devices and bags are prohibited in the exam room. Bring your ID card and queue to enter the waiting hall. Observe the precautions and procedures on the large screen and store personal belongings in lockers before entering the exam room. Upon entering the exam room, the identity verification desk will assign a seat. After finding your seat, begin the exam. Ensure the camera is aligned with you and follow exam discipline. If you fail the first attempt, you can retake it the same day. If you fail again, you must pay to reschedule. After the exam, queue to collect your score report and sign it. Failure to sign will render the result invalid. There is no limit to the number of times you can reschedule the Subject 1 exam. Each subject can be taken once, with one retake allowed if you fail. If you skip the retake or fail it, the exam will be terminated, and you must reschedule. For Subject 2 and Subject 3, there are only five exam attempts. Subject 2 and Subject 3 exams can be rescheduled after ten days. If you fail the Subject 3 safe driving knowledge test, your passing score for the road driving skills test remains valid. The driving test consists of three subjects: Subject 1, Subject 2, and Subject 3. Subject 1 covers traffic safety laws, regulations, and related knowledge. Subject 2 tests field driving skills. Subject 3 includes two parts: road driving skills and safe driving knowledge. The safe driving knowledge test is conducted after Subject 3, so it is commonly referred to as Subject 4. However, the official term (as per the Ministry of Public Security Order No. 123) does not include "Subject 4."

What's the Difference Between Parking Sensors and Rearview Camera?

Parking sensors and rearview cameras differ in the following aspects: 1. Parking sensors rely on echo to detect distance and alert the driver through sounds of different frequencies, but there is inevitably some error in sound judgment; Rearview camera systems use wide-angle far-infrared camera devices to display obstacles behind the vehicle on the in-car screen. 2. Although parking sensors can distinguish sounds, they cannot accurately detect small objects; While rearview cameras provide a more intuitive view of the rear, they cannot measure the distance between objects and the rear bumper.
