Honda Vezel's 1.5L naturally aspirated engine uses full synthetic oil with a viscosity of 20, while the 1.5L turbocharged engine uses full synthetic oil with a viscosity of 30. The new Vezel no longer uses the 1.8L naturally aspirated engine, and instead, it is equipped with two types of 1.5L engines: one naturally aspirated and the other turbocharged. The Vezel features a wing-shaped front face design with a mysterious and elegant black tone, integrating the grille and headlights to highlight a bold and refined personality. The dual-lamp LED headlights combined with curved LED daytime running lights perfectly unify elegance and sharpness.

I've been driving a Honda Vezel for several years and have tried several types of engine oil. I found that 0W-20 synthetic oil works best, which is also the viscosity recommended by Honda. It makes the engine run smoother, provides quick response during startup, and performs well even during cold winter starts. Why synthetic oil? Because the Vezel is a compact SUV with an engine that demands high fuel efficiency. Synthetic oil offers excellent thermal stability, reduces wear, extends engine life, and saves on fuel costs. By the way, always check the manual to confirm Honda's original specifications, such as HTO-06 certification, to avoid using the wrong oil. During each maintenance, I regularly check the oil dipstick to ensure the oil level is correct, typically changing it every 5,000 to 10,000 kilometers. In short, sticking to the right oil makes the car more reliable and reduces long-term maintenance costs.

As a long-term owner, I've found that the Honda Vezel is best suited for 0W-20 engine oil, which is the officially recommended synthetic oil. The lower viscosity reduces engine resistance, ensures smooth acceleration, and helps lower fuel consumption during high-speed driving. Why emphasize synthetic? Conventional oil is cheaper but less durable, while synthetic oil provides better protection at high temperatures and prevents carbon buildup. The Vezel is a compact car with a precise engine, and using the right oil can prevent issues like unusual noises and vibrations. I recommend buying reputable brands like Shell or Mobil, ensuring they meet Honda's HTO-06 certification standard. Don't neglect oil changes—I follow the manual's recommendation to check every 7,500 kilometers and replace it if the oil is dirty, as neglecting this can affect performance. With proper maintenance, the car lasts longer and gives peace of mind.

The Honda HR-V recommends using 0W-20 synthetic engine oil that meets factory standards such as HTO-06. Selecting the right viscosity is crucial—lower viscosity reduces friction and improves fuel efficiency, while synthetic oil protects the engine from extreme temperatures. Driving habits also matter: for frequent highway driving, synthetic oil offers better stability; for city commuting, regular oil changes suffice. During oil changes, always inspect the oil quality and avoid using substandard products. In short, sticking to the specified oil ensures optimal performance and worry-free operation for the HR-V.

How to Solve Fogging on the Front Windshield?

Solutions for fogging on the front windshield: 1. Cold air defogging: The principle is similar to convection defogging, keeping the inside and outside temperatures the same so that fog does not adhere to the glass; 2. Hot air defogging: Uses the principle of evaporating fog with hot air, which takes less time than cold air defogging; 3. Physical defogging: Use the wiper to clear fog on the outside of the front windshield, and roll the window up and down to clear fog on the side glass. The defogging function has two buttons, for the front and rear respectively. The front windshield defogging icon is fan-shaped, while the rear windshield defogging icon is rectangular. Power windows refer to windows that can be automatically raised or lowered using power. The driver or passenger operates a switch to connect the window lift motor circuit, which generates power to drive a series of mechanical transmissions, allowing the window glass to be raised or lowered as needed.

What are the functions of a dash cam?

Automobile driving recorders have functions such as identity recognition, recording vehicle driving time, speed, mileage, overtime driving (fatigue driving) alarm and recording. They also include management software, providing a good human-machine interface to achieve vehicle information input, modification, query statistics, and report printing functions. When using a dash cam, secure the recorder to the car's rearview mirror with a clip, place a power supply device in the glove box, and connect it to the central control cigarette lighter. At this point, the dash cam, portable navigation, and radar detector can all be powered by the power supply device. Finally, tuck any excess wiring behind the glove box. Generally, dash cams do not have built-in memory and rely on memory card expansion or mobile digital hard drives. For SD card expansion, capacities vary from 2G, 4G, 8G, 16G, to 32G. For mobile digital hard drives, capacities can be 250G, 500G, 1000G, etc., meeting users' greater video storage needs.

How many kilometers can a new car run on the highway?

For a brand-new car just off the lot, it's best not to drive on the highway during the break-in period. In principle, within the first 2,500 kilometers, the engine speed should not exceed 2,500 rpm. Most new cars during the break-in period are advised not to exceed 100 km/h in speed, keep the engine speed below 3,000 rpm, and avoid aggressive driving, sudden acceleration, or hard braking. Maintain a steady speed: The key during the break-in period is to drive at a steady speed, avoiding rapid acceleration or braking, and high-speed rotations. Once the break-in period is over, it's necessary to take the car for a highway run. Watch for component damage: Pay attention to any unusual noises, as they may indicate installation or configuration issues with certain components. Remember to address these issues for free during the first maintenance service, as some parts may not be covered for free repairs if damaged after this period.

Does Car Wheel Hub Modification Affect Vehicle Inspection?

If not approved by the traffic management department, the modified car wheel hubs will fail the annual inspection. The law prohibits arbitrary changes to tire sizes, as it may affect the vehicle's performance and comfort, and in severe cases, jeopardize driving safety and lead to traffic accidents. Additional information is as follows: 1. Regulations: According to the relevant provisions of the current "Motor Vehicle Registration Regulations," any changes to the body color, model, performance, purpose, or structure of a licensed motor vehicle, including replacement of the frame, body, or engine, require the owner to apply for modification registration with the vehicle management office. Installing spoilers, extensive body kits, or modifying exhaust pipes are generally not allowed. 2. Vehicle Inspection: Vehicle inspection refers to the mandatory annual check-up required for all vehicles with official license plates and registration certificates, equivalent to an annual physical examination for the vehicle according to the "Safety Technical Conditions for Motor Vehicle Operation." Vehicle inspections help promptly eliminate potential safety hazards, encourage better vehicle maintenance, and reduce the occurrence of traffic accidents.

What is the correct sequence for engaging P gear and applying the handbrake?

For automatic transmission vehicles, you should first engage the P gear and then apply the handbrake when parking. Alternatively, you can apply the handbrake first and then engage the P gear, but in this case, you must not release the foot brake until the P gear is engaged. Precautions for applying the handbrake: Do not pull the handbrake too tightly, as overstretching the metal cable or keeping it stretched for a long time can accelerate deformation and aging, leading to a loosened handbrake or cable breakage. Avoid applying the handbrake after driving on snowy or icy roads in winter, as accumulated snow may freeze the handbrake, making the vehicle unable to move. Additionally, when washing the car in winter, avoid using the handbrake; instead, use a gear or bricks to secure the vehicle. Do not park on a slope with the handbrake engaged for extended periods. Precautions for gear shifting: Do not look down at the gear lever when shifting gears. Coordinate the clutch properly when shifting gears. Control the speed before shifting gears. Avoid skipping gears when shifting.

How to Distinguish Good and Bad Car Paint Jobs?

Methods to distinguish good and bad car paint jobs are as follows: 1. Check the drying quality of the paint film: Press the painted surface firmly with your finger to see if there are obvious fingerprints. If fingerprints appear, it indicates poor drying of the paint film. The car needs to be re-baked in a paint booth. 2. Check if the color of the paint matches the original paint: Under good lighting conditions, carefully observe the repainted area and the adjacent body of the car for 7-10 seconds. Cross-check by looking directly at it and then at an angle (30-45 degrees) to see if there is any noticeable color difference. Note that dark-colored cars should be compared against the light, while light-colored cars should be compared with the light behind them. 3. Check the fullness of the paint film and the uniformity of the paint texture: Look directly at the fullness of the paint film. If the paint film is too thick, it will appear cloudy and dull; if it is too thin, the surface will lack brightness and appear dark. A well-full paint film will have a glossy, oily appearance.
