For the question about which engine oil is best for the Emgrand, I have to say I've driven this car myself, and oil selection is crucial. Generally, for Geely Emgrand models like the New Emgrand, which commonly come with a 1.5L engine, it's recommended to use full synthetic oil with a viscosity of either 5W-30 or 10W-40. Always check the specifications in your vehicle's manual and avoid randomly choosing other oils. Full synthetic oil offers excellent lubrication, reduces engine wear, and extends engine life. In terms of brands, Shell, Mobil, or Castrol are all good choices—they might be a bit more expensive, but they provide smoother performance. If you drive aggressively, frequently run at high RPMs, or if your car is over five years old, opting for a higher viscosity oil is more stable. Remember to change the oil regularly, ideally every 5,000 to 7,500 kilometers—don’t skimp on this expense to avoid costly engine repairs later. Also, pay attention to the API standard label when buying oil; SJ or SN grades are reliable.

Where is the Maintenance Manual?

The maintenance manual is usually handed over to the car owner by the 4S store along with the user manual when picking up a new car. Introduction to the Car Maintenance Manual: The car maintenance manual is provided by the 4S store at the time of purchase, one for each person, used to record vehicle maintenance information. It also allows car owners to check related maintenance content and precautions. Vehicle information that owners want to know can also be found, such as maintenance mileage and specific items for each maintenance. Maintenance According to the Manual: It is recommended to follow the maintenance manual for operation and maintenance. Regularly perform maintenance for the car owner, such as changing the engine oil every 5,000 kilometers. Some vehicles may have reminders.

Is it mandatory to purchase insurance at a 4S store?

Insurance does not have to be purchased at a 4S store. A 4S store is merely a service provider and has no authority to force car owners to buy vehicle insurance. If coercion occurs, consumers can report it to the relevant authorities. Legal provisions: According to the "Automobile Sales Management Measures": Dealers must not restrict consumers to specific providers of auto parts, accessories, financial services, insurance, rescue services, or after-sales services; nor can they force consumers to purchase insurance or require them to use vehicle registration services. Multiple purchasing channels: Car insurance can be purchased through various channels, not just 4S stores. Consumers can buy car insurance through both online and offline channels, as long as the channels are legitimate and qualified.

What Causes the Wheels to Cross the Line During Parallel Parking?

Parallel parking with wheels crossing the line may be due to improper control of the 30-50 cm distance from the edge line, resulting in the wheels crossing the line when entering or exiting the parking space. Here are detailed explanations and solutions: 30-50 cm distance from the edge line: Before starting parallel parking, ensure the vehicle is properly positioned, maintaining a 30-50 cm distance between the right side of the car and the edge line. Otherwise, significant errors may occur. Wheels crossing the line when entering the parking space: Turning the steering wheel too early can cause insufficient space in front of the vehicle, leaving excessive space behind and increasing the risk of crossing the edge line. Therefore, the first reference point must be accurately observed. Wheels crossing the line when exiting the parking space: It’s essential to ensure the wheels do not cross the line both when entering and exiting the parking space. Turning the wheel too early or too late can affect whether the car crosses the line, so timing is crucial.

Will exceeding the 5,000-kilometer maintenance interval affect the car?

Occasionally exceeding the 5,000-kilometer maintenance interval by a small margin is generally not a problem. However, as the mileage increases over time, the viscosity of the engine oil decreases, leading to reduced lubricity, which can affect the wear and tear of engine components. It's important not to exceed the interval by too much. Vehicle maintenance frequency: Generally, the maintenance cycle for a car is every 5,000 or 10,000 kilometers. The frequency of maintenance depends on the effective time or mileage of the engine oil and oil filter used in your vehicle. Different brands and grades of mineral oil, semi-synthetic oil, and fully synthetic oil have varying effective periods. Properly scheduling your car's maintenance will help keep the vehicle in good working condition.

What Causes the Vehicle Body to Cross the Line During Parallel Parking?

The reason for the vehicle body crossing the line during parallel parking is turning the steering wheel too late. Turning too late will cause the vehicle to lean too far right and backward, pressing against the line, while turning too early will make it too far forward and left. Below are detailed explanations and solutions: Method for parallel parking: First, drive the car until it is level with the front car, maintaining a distance of about 50CM to 60CM between the two vehicles. Then, turn the steering wheel all the way to the right and press the accelerator to start reversing. While reversing, pay attention to the left rearview mirror. When you can see the rear car's headlights in the left mirror, straighten the steering wheel. After straightening, continue reversing and observe the distance between the right rear wheel and the curb through the right rearview mirror. When the rear of the car occupies half of the right mirror, turn the steering wheel to the left. Finally, smoothly guide the car into the parking space.

Why is the BYD Tang's air conditioning not cooling?

BYD Tang's air conditioning not cooling reasons are as follows: 1. Refrigerant: Too much refrigerant leads to decreased cooling effect. Excessive refrigerant addition usually occurs during maintenance when too much refrigerant is added. There is a specific requirement for the proportion of refrigerant volume in the air conditioning system. If the proportion is too high, it can affect heat dissipation, as more heat dissipation means greater cooling capacity; conversely, less heat dissipation results in lower cooling capacity. Similarly, adding too much cooling oil during maintenance can also reduce the heat dissipation of the refrigeration system. 2. Insufficient refrigerant: Insufficient refrigerant causes a lack of cooling capacity. The main reason for insufficient refrigerant is usually minor leaks in the system. If there is not enough refrigerant in the air conditioning system, the amount of refrigerant sprayed into the evaporator from the expansion valve will also decrease, leading to less heat absorption during evaporation in the evaporator. Consequently, the cooling capacity will also decrease.
