What kind of oil is suitable for the EA111 engine?

Is it normal for a newly replaced clutch to feel very light when pressed?

It is normal for a newly replaced clutch to feel very light when pressed, and it will adapt after a few days of breaking in. Here is some knowledge about clutches: 1. Definition: The clutch is installed between the engine and the transmission and is the assembly component in the car's drivetrain that directly connects to the engine. Typically, the clutch is installed together with the engine crankshaft's flywheel group and serves as the component that cuts off and transmits power between the engine and the car's drivetrain. 2. Types of electromagnetic clutches: Electromagnetic clutches can be divided into: dry single-plate electromagnetic clutches, dry multi-plate electromagnetic clutches, wet multi-plate electromagnetic clutches, magnetic particle clutches, and slip electromagnetic clutches.

What Causes Water Accumulation in the Trunk Spare Tire?

Water accumulation in the trunk spare tire can be caused by the following reasons: 1. Reason one: Clogged sunroof/trunk drainage pipes. 2. Reason two: Aging of sunroof/trunk sealing strips. 3. Reason three: Blocked rear drainage outlets. 4. Reason four: Damaged trunk clips. 5. Reason five: Dents in the trunk due to impact. 6. Reason six: Leakage through the trunk ventilation grille. Related information about spare tires is as follows: 1. Introduction one: A spare tire is an additional tire carried in motor vehicles as a replacement for a flat, blowout, or other emergencies. The term 'spare tire' is often a misnomer, as almost all vehicles actually carry an entire wheel with a tire mounted as a spare, not just the tire itself. 2. Introduction two: Since mounting a tire onto a wheel requires the driver to carry additional specialized equipment, certain spare tires ('space-saver' and 'donut' types) are not intended for long-distance travel. The maximum speed for space-saver tires is approximately 50 mph (80 km/h).

At what speed should I shift to 2nd, 3rd, 4th, and 5th gear?

Manual transmission gears 1-5 correspond to the following speeds: 1. 1st gear: Used for normal starting or climbing very steep slopes. The speed is generally around 10 km/h. 2. 2nd gear: Used as a transition gear after starting to accelerate, or for low-speed driving or climbing steep slopes. The speed is generally around 20 km/h. 3. 3rd gear: Used at speeds of 20-40 km/h, commonly used for city driving. 4. 4th gear: Used at speeds of 40-60 km/h. 5. 5th gear: Can be used at speeds of 60 km/h and above. Additional information: 1. For normal driving, shifting can generally be done at 1500-1700 RPM, which may result in slightly higher fuel consumption but is still within normal range. For those who prefer aggressive driving, shifting at 3500 RPM provides noticeably faster acceleration but also significantly higher fuel consumption. 2. 1st gear is also a forward gear, but the transmission can only operate within 1st gear and cannot shift to other gears. It is most useful in severe traffic congestion or on very steep slopes. When going up or down steep slopes, the engine's torque can be fully utilized.

What Driver's License is Required for New Energy Vehicles?

If a new energy vehicle is classified as a passenger car, a C1, C2, or higher-level driver's license is required. According to Article 19 of the "Road Traffic Safety Law of the People's Republic of China": To drive a motor vehicle, one must legally obtain a motor vehicle driver's license. Applicants must meet the driving license conditions stipulated by the public security department of the State Council and, upon passing the examination, will be issued the corresponding category of motor vehicle driver's license by the traffic management department of the public security organ. Below is an introduction to new energy vehicles: 1. Types: New energy vehicles include four major types—Hybrid Electric Vehicles (HEV), Battery Electric Vehicles (BEV, including solar-powered vehicles), Fuel Cell Electric Vehicles (FCEV), and other new energy vehicles (such as those powered by supercapacitors, flywheels, and other high-efficiency energy storage devices). Non-conventional vehicle fuels refer to fuels other than gasoline and diesel. 2. Development Plan: In November 2020, the General Office of the State Council issued the "New Energy Vehicle Industry Development Plan (2021-2035)", which requires the in-depth implementation of the national strategy for the development of new energy vehicles, promoting the high-quality and sustainable development of China's new energy vehicle industry, and accelerating the construction of a strong automotive nation.

How Long Can a 2021 License Plate Be Retained?

2021 license plates can be retained for two years. After the cancellation, relocation, or transfer (change of ownership) of a motor vehicle, the retention period for the original license plate number has been extended to two years. This means that within two years after the vehicle transaction, the original license plate number will not be returned to the number pool. Moreover, the new regulations have also adjusted the requirements for the usage period of motor vehicle license plates. Previously, a license plate had to be used for more than three years to be eligible for retention, but under the new rules, it only needs to be used for more than one year. Additional requirements for applying to retain the original license plate number are as follows: 1. The vehicle owner must have used the license plate for more than one year. 2. The application must be submitted within six months after the transfer or cancellation registration. 3. All traffic violations and accident records related to the original motor vehicle must be resolved.

Should the Left Turn Signal Be Activated When Making a U-Turn?

Yes, the left turn signal should be activated. According to the "Road Traffic Safety Law," failure to use the turn signal when making a U-turn will result in a penalty of 1 point and a fine of 100 RMB. Other violations that incur a 1-point penalty include not using lights as required, not yielding properly during encounters, exceeding the specified length, width, or height of cargo on a motor vehicle, and driving without displaying the inspection sticker, insurance sticker, or carrying the vehicle registration and driver's license. The "Implementation Regulations of the Road Traffic Safety Law of the People's Republic of China," Article 57, stipulates that motor vehicles must use turn signals as follows: When turning left, changing lanes to the left, preparing to overtake, leaving a parking spot, or making a U-turn, the left turn signal must be activated in advance. When turning right, changing lanes to the right, returning to the original lane after overtaking, or parking by the roadside, the right turn signal must be activated in advance. Turn signals: Must be activated when the vehicle is turning, flashing intermittently to alert surrounding vehicles and pedestrians. The timing of activating the turn signal is crucial; it should be turned on approximately 30 to 100 meters before the turn. Permissible U-turn scenarios: Intersections with U-turn signs: If there is a clear U-turn sign at the intersection, a U-turn is allowed. If there is a U-turn traffic light, follow its instructions. If there is no traffic light, make the U-turn without obstructing other vehicles or pedestrians. Intersections without explicit prohibitions: If there are no signs explicitly prohibiting U-turns or left turns, a U-turn is permitted. "No explicit prohibition" means the absence of "No U-turn" or "No Left Turn" signs and no solid centerline. Yellow grid lines: Yellow grid lines indicate no-stopping zones, typically at intersections prone to congestion or near important facilities. While stopping on these lines is prohibited, U-turns are allowed unless there is a central barrier. Intersections with U-turn traffic lights: If a U-turn traffic light is present, follow its signal—only proceed on green. Simultaneous "No Left Turn" and "U-turn allowed" signs: U-turns are permitted even if left turns are prohibited, but "No U-turn" does not equate to "No Left Turn." Precautions when making a U-turn: Observe road markings: If the line is solid, a U-turn is prohibited under any circumstances. Continue driving to find a suitable spot. If a "No Left Turn" sign is present, even without a "No U-turn" sign, a U-turn is not allowed because the actions are similar. U-turns must be made from the innermost left-turn lane. If in the second left-turn lane, a U-turn is not permitted. Yield to oncoming traffic: Only proceed with a U-turn if it does not interfere with straight-moving vehicles, or you will bear full responsibility for any accidents. Lane arrows: The leftmost lane may not always have a left-turn arrow. If it has a straight arrow, U-turns are prohibited even without explicit signs.
