After exceeding the first maintenance mileage, the first step is to contact the 4S service department to inquire about the latest maintenance time and schedule an appointment. Refer to the oil health level displayed by your vehicle, as it varies depending on individual driving habits. If the first maintenance exceeds the specified mileage, consult with the service staff for negotiation. The action depends on how much the 5000-kilometer limit is exceeded. A slight overage may still allow for the maintenance to proceed.

I also exceeded the first service by about 800 kilometers last time, and I was really worried. I immediately called the 4S store to ask about the situation. The after-sales guy said the first service for a new car is indeed important because metal debris is generated during engine break-in. Exceeding by a few hundred kilometers is not a big deal, but exceeding too much might affect the warranty. They asked me to come in as soon as possible, and after checking the oil condition, they still performed the service for free. However, they reminded me to make an appointment about 500 kilometers in advance next time, and not to wait until the dashboard warning appears. Now I set double reminders on my phone, as engine maintenance should never be delayed. If you exceed by a lot, I suggest not to delay and drive directly for an inspection, as deteriorated oil can accelerate part wear.

What causes the hissing sound and lack of cooling when the car AC is turned on?

Reasons for the hissing sound and lack of cooling when the car AC is turned on: 1. The AC compressor may have an issue. 2. The motor of the exhaust fan inside the AC may be damaged. 3. The blower motor bearings may be worn out. 4. There may be excessive debris inside the AC system. 5. The blades of the exhaust fan inside the AC may be deformed. Below is an introduction to car air conditioning: AC stands for "Air-conditioning," which refers to the air conditioning system in a car. To quickly lower the temperature inside the car during summer, you can adjust the position of the air vents. According to the principle of air convection, hot air rises while cold air sinks.

What brand is Dongfeng Nissan Sunny?

Dongfeng Nissan Sunny is a model under the Nissan brand. Here is an introduction to relevant information: 1. Nissan Sunny: The Nissan Sunny is a series of sedans produced by Nissan. The first Sunny model was launched in Japan in 1966. The rear of the vehicle is marked with the letters 'sunny'. 2. Powertrain: The Sunny is equipped with an SR20 engine, which has a displacement of 1998 cc, double overhead camshafts, and a 16-valve all-aluminum engine. It delivers a maximum power of 107 kW and a maximum torque of 183 Nm. The use of aluminum alloy for the engine casing not only reduces the overall vehicle weight, improving fuel efficiency, but also helps adjust the vehicle's center of gravity, alleviating the inherent 'heavy front, light rear' condition of front-wheel-drive cars, thereby enhancing handling performance.

What type of gasoline should a Haval M6 use?

Haval M6 uses 92-octane gasoline. Here is some relevant knowledge about gasoline: Precautions for gasoline selection: Do not use high-octane gasoline for an extended period, as it can alter the ignition timing. Long-term use of high-octane gasoline is not only bad for the car but also shortens the engine's lifespan. This is because the octane rating of gasoline represents the ratio of the actual gasoline's anti-knock properties to those of standard gasoline. The higher the octane number, the stronger the anti-knock performance. Composition of gasoline: Standard gasoline is composed of isooctane and n-heptane. Higher octane ratings are not necessarily better; the appropriate gasoline octane should be selected based on the engine's compression ratio.

Why does the car accelerate normally when cold but lacks power when warm?

Here are the possible reasons for the car accelerating normally when cold but lacking power when warm: 1. Engine mechanical system failure: For example, low cylinder pressure leading to reduced engine power, which is more noticeable when the engine is cold, or issues with the intake valve and intake pipe. 2. Excessive carbon deposits: Too much carbon buildup on the intake valve and intake pipe can cause the injected gasoline to be absorbed by the carbon deposits instead of entering the combustion chamber. 3. Engine management system failure: For example, incorrect signals from the water temperature or intake temperature sensors, or wiring faults. 4. Ignition system failure: For example, excessive carbon buildup on spark plugs or incorrect gap settings, leakage in high-voltage wires or distributor caps, or damaged ignition coils. 5. Fuel supply system failure: For example, clogged or improperly closing fuel injectors due to excessive internal carbon deposits.

Why Does the Clutch Suddenly Become Very Heavy?

The sudden heaviness of the clutch can be caused by several reasons: contamination or rusting of the clutch linkage components (in mechanical clutches), dirty hydraulic fluid and pipelines in the clutch master and slave cylinders, deterioration of rubber cups and seals, or blockage in the oil passages. Below are the related explanations and solutions: 1. Contamination or rusting of the clutch linkage components (mechanical type): Solution: Remove the clutch mechanism for cleaning and maintenance (replace parts if necessary), lubricate, and adjust the clearance according to standards. 2. Dirty hydraulic fluid and pipelines in the clutch master and slave cylinders; deterioration of rubber cups and seals or blockage in the oil passages: Solution: Disassemble the clutch master and slave cylinders along with the pipelines, clean thoroughly with alcohol, blow clean with high-pressure air (especially the pipelines), replace the rubber cups and seals in the master and slave cylinders, bleed the air, and adjust the clearance as specified.
