0w30 engine oil is suitable for Japanese and American cars, which is related to factors such as the internal structure of the engine. Based on a comprehensive consideration of the vehicle maintenance manual and the driving habits of the owner, engine oil with the appropriate viscosity can better protect the engine. In 0w30 engine oil, the 'w' stands for winter, and the '0' represents the low-temperature fluidity of the oil. The smaller the number, the better the low-temperature fluidity of the oil. The number after 'w' represents the kinematic viscosity of the oil at 100 degrees. The larger the number, the better the viscosity, and the better the protective effect of the oil at high temperatures.

What are the effects of the Focus intake manifold causing hard brakes?

Focus intake manifold causing hard brakes has the following effects: 1. Brake noise: One of the most common faults in the brake system is brake noise, which many car owners have encountered. Generally, brake noise occurs when the brake pedal is pressed while driving, and the brake system emits a sharp metal friction sound, often appearing after rain. 2. 'Brake pull' during braking: Brake pull, or uneven braking, occurs when the steering wheel noticeably pulls to one side while braking, indicating that one side has stronger braking force than the other. This fault mainly occurs in older vehicles and can easily lead to accidents once it appears.

Is There a Purchase Tax on New Energy Vehicles?

New energy vehicles, being electric vehicles, enjoy national policy incentives and therefore are exempt from purchase tax. Below is relevant information about new energy vehicles: 1. Introduction to New Energy Vehicles: New energy vehicles refer to automobiles that utilize unconventional vehicle fuels as power sources (or use conventional vehicle fuels with new types of onboard power devices), integrating advanced technologies in vehicle power control and driving to form vehicles with advanced technical principles, new technologies, and new structures. 2. Classification of New Energy Vehicles: New energy vehicles include hybrid electric vehicles (HEV), battery electric vehicles (BEV), fuel cell electric vehicles (FCEV), hydrogen engine vehicles, as well as gas-powered vehicles, alcohol ether vehicles, etc.

What is the ground clearance of the Focus?

The unladen ground clearance of the Focus is 130mm, while the laden ground clearance is 120mm, and it reduces to 90mm with a skid plate installed. Below is some relevant knowledge about ground clearance: 1. Smaller ground clearance: The smaller the ground clearance, the poorer the vehicle's ability to overcome obstacles. Regarding minimum ground clearance, previous standards had a mandatory requirement of approximately 150~160mm, but this requirement has been removed in current standards. 2. Larger ground clearance: The larger the minimum ground clearance, the better the vehicle's ability to pass over obstacles or uneven terrain, but it also results in a higher center of gravity, which reduces stability.

What are the symptoms of a damaged carbon canister solenoid valve in a Focus?

Here are the specific symptoms of a damaged carbon canister solenoid valve in a Focus: 1. Difficult engine starting (solenoid valve stuck open): Since the solenoid valve remains constantly open, the intake manifold will be filled with fuel vapors. During engine startup, an overly rich air-fuel mixture will cause starting difficulties or even stalling. 2. Fuel vapor leakage (solenoid valve stuck closed): When the solenoid valve remains constantly closed, the fuel vapors stored in the carbon canister cannot be purged. This leads to increased fuel tank pressure, eventually causing fuel vapors to escape through the tank cap's pressure relief valve.

What does AMB mean in cars?

AMB in cars refers to switching between outdoor temperature and air conditioning temperature, where AMB represents the external ambient temperature signal. Cars are equipped with external temperature sensors, and when using automatic air conditioning, these sensors automatically detect the outdoor temperature and adjust the interior temperature accordingly, ensuring a consistently comfortable environment inside the vehicle. During the operation of automatic air conditioning, the system automatically regulates the airflow, humidity, and temperature inside the car. Once the occupants set a desired temperature, the automatic air conditioning system adjusts the air vents and fan speed based on signals from various sensors, maintaining an optimal air environment within the vehicle.

What's the matter with the Focus not starting?

There may be a problem with the engine. The following describes common starting faults in cars: 1. Idling operation problems: It may be unstable idling, engine shaking, idling speed exceeding the upper limit, idling speed lower than the lower limit, or rough idling. These phenomena are related to faults or poor operation of components such as the injector, oxygen sensor, air flow sensor, and exhaust gas recirculation valve. 2. Abnormal exhaust pipe smoke: There may be black smoke, white smoke, or blue smoke. Black smoke indicates an overly rich mixture, related to defects in the fuel supply, air distribution, mechanical, or electronic control system; white smoke indicates excessive water in the fuel; blue smoke indicates oil burning.
