First, negotiate with the 4S store for a resolution. If communication with the 4S store yields no results, you can choose to call the car manufacturer's complaint hotline and directly report the issue to the manufacturer. Alternatively, you can file a complaint with the consumer association and relevant administrative departments. The final method is to request arbitration from an arbitration institution. There is no clear legal definition for a stock car, but it generally refers to a vehicle that has been in the factory for more than 12 months. Vehicles produced more than 2 years ago are considered severely stocked cars. How to determine if it is a stock car: 1. Check the production date: The production date is the easiest way to determine if a new car is a stock car. The production date is usually written on the nameplate, which is typically located below the B-pillar on the passenger side of the vehicle. Opening the door will reveal it. If the date is quite old, it might be a stock car. 2. Judge by the mileage: Generally, new cars transported to a 4S store do not undergo long-distance driving. Therefore, new cars usually have around 5 kilometers on the odometer. If you notice that the new car has more than 10 kilometers when you start it, you can request to exchange it for another new car.

What brand of tires are equipped on the Changan CS55?

Changan CS55 is equipped with Continental tires, with a tire size of 225/55/R18. Continental Tire Company (Continental) was founded in 1871 and is headquartered in Hanover, Germany. It is the largest tire manufacturer in Germany, ranked second in Europe, fourth in the world, and first in industrial tires globally. Today, Continental is one of the leading suppliers in the global automotive industry, providing extensive technology and expertise in tires and braking systems, vehicle dynamic control technology, electronic and sensing systems. Ensuring personal driving safety and superior comfort is Continental's relentless goal, and it has become synonymous with high-quality tires and advanced tire technology worldwide. For the tires on the Changan CS55, the following points should be noted during daily use: Regularly check the tire surface for cracks, deformations, or other defects. Due to wear from driving, the tread grooves gradually become shallower. If the tread is worn out, it will lose its drainage and anti-skid functions, significantly reducing the car's performance. Even small cracks can be a hidden danger for tire blowouts at high speeds. Additionally, promptly remove pebbles from the grooves. Try to park on flat ground. Avoid parking on roads with thick, sharp, or pointed stones. Do not park the car near or in contact with petroleum products, acids, or other materials that can deteriorate rubber. After parking, the driver should not turn the steering wheel, as this accelerates tire wear. Do not splash water to cool the tires. In hot weather or during high-speed driving, tires are prone to overheating, and the air pressure increases. In such cases, stop to let the tires cool down. Never release air to reduce pressure or splash water to cool the tires, as this can cause abnormal aging of the tread rubber. Avoid sudden braking. Try to minimize frequent or emergency braking to prevent accelerated tread wear from dragging on the ground.

What is the proper tire pressure for Volkswagen Bora?

The normal tire pressure range for Volkswagen Bora is 2.4-2.5bar. Due to seasonal factors, the tire pressure can be appropriately increased by 0.2bar in winter and reduced by 0.1bar in summer. The Bora uses an indirect tire pressure monitoring system. This type of tire pressure monitoring device does not display the tire pressure but will only alert when the tire pressure is abnormal. To check the tire pressure, first prepare a tire pressure gauge, locate the position of the factory tire pressure label, press the tire pressure gauge against the tire valve to measure and read the value. Remember to replace the valve cap after measuring the tire pressure. If the tire pressure monitoring indicator light comes on (a yellow symbol, an irregular circle with no seal on top and four small spikes at the bottom, containing an exclamation mark inside), there are generally three possible reasons: Abnormal tire pressure. Typically, an alarm will sound if the pressure is below 1.8bar or above 3.0bar. In this case, tire inspection and pressure adjustment are required. Tire pressure monitoring not reset. After inflating the tires, if the tire pressure is not reset in time, the tire pressure monitoring system will still record the previous data, causing the tire pressure monitoring indicator light to come on. Simply reset the tire pressure in this situation. Damaged tire pressure sensor. The tire pressure sensor, which is used to monitor tire pressure, is directly installed inside the tire and connected to the tire inflation port. If the tire pressure sensor is damaged while driving, it will also cause the tire pressure fault light to come on. For sensor damage issues, only a brand-new replacement part can be used.

Where is the oil filter located on the Geely Boyue?

The oil filter on the Geely Boyue is located at the upper right front of the engine. You can see the engine oil filter after opening the engine hood. The engine oil filter is a basic component found in almost every vehicle engine. It filters the engine oil, helping to keep the oil clean. Below are the steps for replacing the oil filter: 1. First, turn off the vehicle and let it cool down. Open the engine hood and unscrew the engine oil filler cap. Then, lift the vehicle and ensure it is securely elevated before starting the work. Unscrew the oil drain plug on the engine oil pan and collect the used oil in a bucket. After draining, let it sit for ten minutes before tightening the drain plug. 2. Lower the vehicle and use a tool to remove the old oil filter, then install a new one. Specialized tools are required to remove the oil filter. Next, begin adding engine oil through the oil filler cap. Start the vehicle and let it idle for one to two minutes, then turn it off and wait for five minutes before checking the oil level. The oil level should be between the upper and lower marks on the dipstick to prevent overfilling or underfilling.
