Citroën C5 uses engine oil with the specification 5W40. Below is a detailed introduction to the types of engine oil specifications: 1. High-temperature type: such as SAE20-SAE50, where the number indicates the viscosity at 100°C, with higher numbers representing higher viscosity. 2. Low-temperature type: such as SAEOW-SAE25W, where 'W' stands for winter use only, and lower numbers indicate lower viscosity and better low-temperature fluidity. 3. All-weather type: such as SAE15W/40, 10W/40, 5W/50, indicating that the viscosity grade at low temperatures meets the requirements of SAE15W, 10W, and 5W respectively, and the viscosity grade at high temperatures meets the requirements of SAE40 and 50, making them suitable for both winter and summer use.

Do Old Tires Removed from Vehicles Still Have Value?

Tires removed from vehicles still have value. 1. Tire Recycling: Some waste tires that are still relatively new in appearance can be recycled, with the actual price depending on the tread depth and whether the tire has any serious damage. If they no longer have recycling value, we can also turn them into decorations or furniture like chairs and benches. 2. Recycling Considerations: Hand over the replaced tires to reliable professional institutions for recycling to prevent them from being exploited by unscrupulous merchants, which could compromise driving safety. These institutions that can recycle old tires often have relatively sound mechanisms. If the tires do not meet the standards, they are usually processed for oil refining. This not only extracts beneficial products but also allows the rubber powder and rubber granules from the treated waste tires to be widely used in modified asphalt, waterproof materials, rubber floor tiles, or rubber running tracks, among other applications.

How to Deal with High Temperature in Car Radiator?

Keep the engine running at idle for a period of time. Turn on the air conditioning to the maximum heating position to help dissipate heat. Open the engine hood to assist in heat dissipation, and wait until the coolant temperature drops to normal before turning off the engine.

Should You Press the Clutch When Braking to Slow Down?

When braking to slow down, whether to press the brake or the clutch first depends on the speed of the vehicle. Below is an introduction to braking: 1. Definition: As the name suggests, it is a mechanical braking device that can reduce the speed of a vehicle, also known as a decelerator. 2. Application: Simply put, the car's brake pedal is located below the steering wheel. Pressing the brake pedal causes the brake lever to be pressurized and transmitted to the brake pads on the brake drum, clamping the brake disc to slow down or stop the vehicle. 3. Types: The manual brake in a car is located next to the gear shift and is connected to the brake lever. Common examples also include bicycle brakes, which rely on rod-shaped brakes fixed to the frame or disc-mounted caliper brakes to slow down.

How to Properly Adjust Car Seats?

After getting into the car and sitting down, move your hips backward to firmly contact the junction between the seat cushion and backrest, maintaining this position steadily. Seat height adjustment should be based on multiple factors including the driver's height, arm length, and the distance between the steering wheel and the body. Ensure there is at least a fist's distance between your head and the car roof. The backrest and seat cushion should form a 90-degree right angle.

Will Insurance Cover a Car Flooded in the Garage?

If a car is flooded in a parking lot, the insurance company will not cover the damages. Below is relevant information about the waterlogging insurance: 1. Definition: Waterlogging insurance is a newly derived type of auto insurance, primarily an additional coverage purchased by car owners for the engine. It applies when the insured vehicle is submerged up to the exhaust pipe or intake pipe due to heavy rain or flooding, and the driver continues to start the vehicle or attempts to start it using inertia; or when the vehicle is started without necessary repairs after being exposed to heavy rain or flooding. In these two scenarios, purchasing waterlogging insurance is necessary to receive corresponding compensation. 2. Claim Handling: Compensation is provided based on actual repair costs within the insured amount. However, if the cumulative claim amount reaches the insured limit during the policy period, the insurance liability terminates. Each claim under waterlogging insurance is subject to a 15% absolute deductible rate.
