The Mazda3 Axela should use 5w30 engine oil, which serves to lubricate and reduce friction in the engine, assist in cooling, seal against leaks, prevent rust and corrosion, and absorb shocks. Taking the 2020 Mazda3 Axela as an example, it belongs to the compact car category with body dimensions of 4662mm in length, 1797mm in width, and 1445mm in height, a wheelbase of 2726mm, and a fuel tank capacity of 50 liters. The 2020 Mazda3 Axela features a MacPherson strut independent front suspension and a torsion beam non-independent rear suspension. It is equipped with a 1.5L naturally aspirated engine producing a maximum horsepower of 117ps, a maximum power of 86kw, and a maximum torque of 148nm, paired with a 6-speed manual transmission.

How to Add Windshield Washer Fluid to Tucson?

Tucson windshield washer fluid refill steps are as follows: 1. Use the wiper control knob to spray out the old washer fluid first. 2. After completely draining the old fluid, add a small amount of new washer fluid at the filler port. 3. Then activate the wiper control knob again to flush out any remaining old fluid. 4. When no more fluid sprays from the nozzles, refill with approximately 4L of new washer fluid to complete the process. Below are seasonal adjustment methods for washer fluid preparation: 1. In summer when there's more dust in the air, add about one bottle cap's worth of detergent (but don't exceed this amount as excessive bubbles may hinder cleaning). 2. In winter when temperatures drop, appropriately increase alcohol content to lower the solution's freezing point. A mixture of 40-50% alcohol with 50-60% water achieves a -25℃ freezing point, suitable for most regions nationwide.

What are the reasons for the Peugeot 408 engine overheating?

The main reasons for the Peugeot 408 engine overheating can be summarized into three points. Below is a detailed explanation of these three causes: 1. Dirt accumulation on the radiator: If the vehicle is driven for a long time on dirt roads or muddy sections, some debris may adhere to the radiator, which over time can affect the cooling efficiency, leading to high water temperature. In this case, it is necessary to hire a professional repair service for inspection and maintenance. 2. Abnormal operation of the thermostat: If the thermostat is not functioning properly, it can cause the engine to overheat. Generally, the temperature difference between the small hoses connected to the thermostat can be used to determine this. If there is a significant temperature difference between the two hoses, it can be concluded that the thermostat is not working correctly. In this case, professional repair services should be consulted for inspection and maintenance. 3. Air in the cooling system: If there is air in the cooling system, it can create an airlock, leading to poor circulation of the coolant. This can also cause the engine to overheat. Professional repair services should be engaged for inspection and maintenance in such situations.

Is Annual Inspection Still Required for Vehicles Eligible for 6-Year Exemption?

Annual inspection is still required. The 6-year exemption refers to exemption from on-site vehicle testing, not exemption from annual inspection procedures. Vehicles meeting the 6-year exemption criteria are exempt from the physical inspection (i.e., vehicle testing) process, but owners must still apply for the annual inspection compliance decal (the sticker displayed on the windshield) every two years. In other words, the exemption only eliminates the vehicle testing step, while the inspection decal must still be renewed biennially. Important notes for annual inspection: During inspection, the vehicle management office will examine the vehicle's lighting system. If headlights are found to be either too dim or excessively bright, the vehicle will fail inspection. For dim lights, check whether the lighting circuit or bulbs have aged, and replace components if necessary. If xenon headlights have been installed, it's recommended to revert to the original headlight configuration before inspection to ensure compliance.

What to Pay Attention to When Changing Tires?

Precautions for changing tires are as follows: 1. Choose the right tires: The specifications of the tires must be the same as the previous tires and must match the other tire on the same axle, such as speed rating, load index, tread pattern, brand, size, etc., to ensure safe driving. 2. Replace the valve stem: When changing tires, the aging cycle of the new tires and the valve stem may differ. The valve stem might develop issues within the new tire's cycle, so it's best to replace the valve stem at the same time as changing the tires. 3. Pay attention to the installation direction and inflation: If using the original tires, install them according to the manufacturer's requirements. For non-original tires, generally the side with the production date should face outward. For directional tires, align the arrow on the wheel with the direction of the car's forward movement. When inflating, you can inflate to the maximum pressure allowed by the tire and then reduce it to the standard pressure specified by the manufacturer.

What are the symbols for China 5 and China 6?

The symbols for China 5 and China 6 are "China V, China VI". The following are the differences between China 5 and China 6: 1. Price difference: China 6 vehicles are slightly more expensive than China 5 vehicles, mainly because China 6 vehicles, in response to policy implementation, require automakers to submit applications to relevant departments and undergo various pollution tests, which increases the cost and consequently raises the vehicle's price. Additionally, China 6 vehicles are equipped with more configurations compared to China 5 to reduce environmental pollution. 2. Difference in access restrictions: With the implementation of the China 6 policy, certain vehicles that do not meet the emission standards face certain driving restrictions. Generally, China 5 or lower vehicles may be directly banned from road use due to non-compliance with emission requirements. Therefore, many owners of China 5 vehicles switch to China 6 vehicles to ensure normal road driving.
