Regular maintenance includes engine oil, oil filter, cabin air filter, engine air filter, etc., mainly depending on the clogging condition of each component. Before this mileage, you might have been using lower-viscosity engine oil, but after 50,000 kilometers, it's better to switch to higher-quality oil. Below are extended maintenance details: 1. Timely oil and filter replacement: Generally, under normal conditions, engine oil should be changed every 5,000 km. If driving in dusty environments, change every 3,000 km. The engine is essentially the heart of a car, containing many metal surfaces that rub against each other at high speeds in poor working conditions with temperatures reaching 400°C to 600°C. Only qualified lubricating oil can reduce engine component wear and extend engine lifespan. 2. Timely brake pad replacement: Vehicle brake pads typically last about 4-5 years or 40,000 km, though this varies based on driving habits, environment, and speed. Cars frequently driven on highways generally experience less wear since brake usage is reduced during high-speed driving, resulting in slower brake pad wear.

Is It Illegal to Change a Car's Logo?

Changing a car's logo is considered an illegal act and may result in a warning or a fine. Below are the relevant provisions: Article 16: Assembling a motor vehicle or altering the registered structure, construction, or characteristics of a motor vehicle without authorization; altering the model number, engine number, chassis number, or vehicle identification number; forging, altering, or using forged or altered motor vehicle registration certificates, license plates, driving licenses, inspection qualification marks, or insurance marks; using the registration certificates, license plates, driving licenses, inspection qualification marks, or insurance marks of another motor vehicle. Article 87: Traffic management departments of public security authorities and their traffic police officers shall promptly correct any violations of road traffic safety laws. Traffic management departments of public security authorities and their traffic police officers shall impose penalties for violations of road traffic safety laws based on facts and the relevant provisions of this law. For minor violations that do not affect road traffic, the illegal act shall be pointed out, and the offender shall be given a verbal warning before being allowed to proceed.

What is the actual lifespan of Honda's hybrid eCVT transmission?

The lifespan of Honda's hybrid eCVT transmission can reach 300,000 kilometers. The following behaviors can affect the lifespan of the CVT: 1. Coasting in neutral: Automatic transmissions are hydraulically controlled and require stable hydraulic system pressure. The oil pump's power comes from the engine. If the oil pump does not have sufficient power in neutral, it can lead to insufficient oil pressure. 2. Suddenly shifting from D to N: The oil pressure drops immediately, causing poor lubrication of moving and pressing components, ultimately leading to pressure leaks or high temperatures inside the CVT transmission. 3. Frequent aggressive driving: The CVT itself cannot handle much torque. Frequently flooring the throttle to maximize its power can easily trigger the transmission's overheating protection. 4. Poor maintenance: The structure of a CVT transmission is different from other automatic transmissions. It requires different parameters for oil flow rate, friction performance, and expansion coefficient.

Is the water leakage when the car stalls from the air conditioning?

Is the water leakage when the car stalls from the air conditioning? The water leakage when the car stalls is from the air conditioning. Here are the relevant details: Turning on the air conditioning: The compressor located in the engine compartment (low-pressure area) also condenses moisture from the air, which drips onto the ground. Sometimes, the amount of water can be even greater than the drainage from the evaporator. The low-pressure pipes of the car air conditioning are not wrapped with insulating foam, making the surface of the pipes prone to condensing moisture from the air. Water droplets will also condense and gather at the lowest point of the pipes, dripping down. Car air conditioning system: The dripping occurs in the middle-right part of the front of the car. Therefore, after driving for a while and then stopping the car for some time, you will often notice water dripping from the middle-right part of the chassis. This is not a problem with the vehicle but rather the water expelled by the car air conditioning system.

Does running the car fan without air conditioning consume fuel?

Running the car fan without air conditioning does consume fuel. Here is a detailed explanation of running the car fan without cooling: Overview of the aerodynamic performance of the car fan: The aerodynamic performance of a fan generally refers to the relationship between the fan's flow rate and static pressure, as well as the relationship between flow rate and power. The flow rate of the fan is equal to the amount of air it sucks in or exhausts per unit time, which is the volume flow rate of gas passing through the air duct per unit time in performance tests. The static pressure of the fan characterizes the gas's ability to overcome various resistances in the flow path. Overview of the cooling fan: The cooling fan is an important component of the vehicle's cooling system. The performance of the fan directly affects the heat dissipation effect of the engine, which in turn affects the engine's performance. If the fan is not selected properly, it can lead to insufficient or excessive cooling of the engine, resulting in a deterioration of the engine's working environment, thereby affecting the engine's performance and service life.

Correct Method for Starting a Manual Car

Manual transmission cars require a specific sequence for starting: one press, two engage, three turn on, four honk, five release, six look, seven accelerate. The detailed steps are as follows: 1. One press: After starting the car, press the clutch pedal. 2. Two engage: Shift into first gear to provide optimal torque for starting and prevent stalling. 3. Three turn on: Activate the left turn signal to alert nearby pedestrians and vehicles to yield. 4. Four honk: Honk the horn twice to warn surrounding people, vehicles, and even animals resting under the car. 5. Five release: Release the handbrake. It's crucial to develop the habit of promptly engaging the handbrake after parking during the learning phase. 6. Six look: Check the front of the car and surroundings via mirrors to confirm safe starting conditions. 7. Seven accelerate: Gradually release the clutch pedal while simultaneously pressing the accelerator pedal. This is the most challenging step and requires repeated practice to master.
