The Captiva uses a MacPherson independent suspension at the front and a four-link independent suspension at the rear. The MacPherson suspension is a relatively common type of independent suspension, featuring a very simple structure with only an L-shaped control arm. This design hardly occupies any engine compartment space, which is why many front-transverse-engine vehicles opt for MacPherson front suspension. The Captiva is a model launched by Chevrolet, with dimensions of 4635 mm in length, 1870 mm in width, and 1755 mm in height, and a wheelbase of 2705 mm. In terms of power, the Captiva is equipped with a 2.4-liter naturally aspirated engine across the lineup, delivering a maximum power of 123 kW and a maximum torque of 230 Nm.

How often should the engine oil be changed during the break-in period of the Haojue USR125?

During the break-in period of the Haojue USR125, the first engine oil change can be done between 500 to 1,000 kilometers. After the 1,000-kilometer break-in period, the engine oil should be changed every 2,000 kilometers, and the air filter should be cleaned or replaced at the same time. Below are three characteristics of a new car during the break-in period: 1. More driving faults: Due to factors such as improper assembly of parts, new cars tend to experience more driving faults during the break-in period. 2. Higher fuel consumption: To ensure the new car operates under light load during the break-in period, carburetor cars are equipped with speed limiters, which can easily cause the air-fuel mixture to become too rich, thereby increasing fuel consumption. 3. Engine oil is prone to deterioration: During the break-in period, the rough surfaces of parts and the small gaps between them can cause the engine oil temperature to rise. Additionally, many metal shavings are worn off and fall into the engine oil, making it more susceptible to oxidation and deterioration.

How to Deal with Carbon Pollution?

Automotive carbon pollution can only be cleaned, and there are various cleaning methods. The most effective method is to completely dismantle the engine and use cleaning agents, ultrasonic waves, and other methods to remove carbon deposits from the components. Another method is machine cleaning, where a cleaning agent is injected into a machine, pressurized into the combustion chamber to react with and dissolve the carbon deposits, and then the waste liquid is extracted. Below is additional information on carbon deposits: 1. Formation: Carbon deposits are residues produced during engine operation when unsaturated olefins and gums in engine oil and fuel undergo incomplete combustion at high temperatures. These residues are not expelled with the exhaust in time and accumulate in various parts of the system, forming a black, charred substance. 2. Symptoms: Engine carbon deposits resemble a layer of sponge with oil-absorbing properties, causing incompletely burned gasoline to turn into more carbon deposits. These deposits accumulate layer by layer, becoming thicker and thicker, leading to a vicious cycle. In severe cases, they can even block half of the intake valve. It can even be understood that carbon deposits are the 'cancer' of the engine.

How to Accurately Identify Reference Points for Subject Two Driving Test?

Subject Two reference point observation methods are as follows: 1. Steering wheel full-lock right point: When the left rearview mirror aligns with the starting line (usually indicated by the instructor), immediately turn the steering wheel to full lock. 2. Steering wheel straightening point: As the car is about to enter the parking space, straighten the steering wheel when the vehicle is nearly parallel to the parking space boundary line. 3. Parking point after entering the space: After the vehicle enters the parking space, observe the left rearview mirror and the parking space entrance line. When the lower edge of the left rearview mirror aligns with the entrance line, or when the entrance line just disappears from view under the mirror's lower edge, depress both clutch and brake pedals to stop, completing the reverse parking maneuver.

How to adjust when always crossing the line at the last curve in an S-turn?

Method for driving through S-turns: Before entering the curve, slow down in advance and follow the principle of taking the outer line. Choose the route with the largest turning radius as much as possible. For example, if preparing to turn left, the vehicle should stay to the right side. This helps reduce crossing the line. Below are the relevant steps: 1. When the left front corner touches the right boundary line: Turn the steering wheel one full turn to the left, keeping the left front corner aligned with the right boundary line. 2. After completing the right line of the first curve: Keep the steering wheel steady. When the right front corner touches the right boundary line, straighten the steering wheel. 3. Observe the engine hood: When the left one-third of the engine hood touches the left boundary line of the right curve, turn the steering wheel one full turn to the right. 4. After the vehicle exits the curve: Align the front of the car with the S-turn exit, straighten the steering wheel, and continue driving forward out of the curve test area. 5. Avoid turning the steering wheel too sharply: Generally, turn the wheel one full turn and then observe and adjust as needed.
