Eado is suitable for 5w30 oil. The number before 'w' indicates the low-temperature viscosity. The lower the number, the thinner the oil is at low temperatures, making it easier to start the car and allowing the oil pump to circulate it more quickly in the engine, providing better cold-start protection. The number after 'w' represents high-temperature performance. The higher the number, the thicker the oil is during operation, offering better high-temperature protection and buffering capabilities, as well as reducing noise. The Eado is a compact 4-door, 5-seater sedan under Changan New Energy, with dimensions of 4740mm in length, 1820mm in width, and 1530mm in height, a wheelbase of 2700mm, and equipped with a fixed gear ratio transmission.

I often drive cars like the Eado, and personally, I think 5W-30 synthetic oil is the most suitable, especially for modern engines. Because its viscosity is moderate, the engine runs smoothly in both summer and winter, with less noise at startup and faster, quieter acceleration. I usually use Shell or Total oil, and it's fine to change it every 8,000 kilometers—don't wait until the light comes on. Remember, the oil grade should be SM or above, meeting API standards, and avoid using oil that's too thin or too thick, as it can easily cause engine wear or higher fuel consumption. When changing the oil, it's best to replace the oil filter as well, as this can extend the engine's lifespan and reduce future maintenance hassles. Regularly check the oil level and don't wait until it's low to top it up—this is especially important for long-distance driving, as it can prevent engine overheating issues.

What to Do When Honda Car CAN Communication Fails?

Check which module is unable to communicate. Read the fault codes of the body module, ABS module, and airbag module separately. Then measure the resistance between pins 6 and 14 of the diagnostic socket to see if it is 60 ohms or 120 ohms. A reading of 120 ohms indicates a damaged module.

How to Use the Cruise Control on MG6?

The cruise control of MG6 is operated via the stalk switch located at the lower left side of the steering wheel. When the cruise control system is in standby mode, press the "Set" button at the end of the stalk switch, and the indicator light on the instrument panel will turn green, indicating the cruise system is activated. Relevant instructions are as follows: 1. The MG6 cruise control is operated through the stalk switch on the lower left side of the steering wheel. To adjust the target cruising speed, push the stalk switch upward and hold it, and the vehicle will accelerate automatically. Release the switch immediately when the desired speed is reached; pushing the stalk switch downward will decelerate the vehicle. Additionally, you can gradually increase or decrease the set speed by flicking the stalk switch and releasing it immediately. Each flick of the stalk switch will increase or decrease the speed by approximately 1 km/h. While the cruise control system is active, pressing the accelerator pedal normally can still accelerate the vehicle. Upon releasing the accelerator pedal, the speed will return to the set cruising speed. 2. The cruise system will automatically exit to standby mode under the following conditions: the stalk switch is moved to the "Cancel" position; the brake pedal is pressed; the gear of an automatic transmission model is shifted to P, R, or N; poor road conditions trigger the dynamic stability control system for safety reasons; or when the slope is too steep, causing excessive speed reduction, the cruise system will also pause automatically.

How to Fix a Stiff Clutch Pedal in a 2011 Hyundai Elantra?

Adjust the clutch cable to be slightly longer or, for a hydraulic clutch, shorten the release cylinder push rod to resolve the issue. Replacement may be necessary, primarily due to faults in the clutch disc, pressure plate, or release bearing, as these components are wear parts. It is advisable to have the vehicle inspected at a professional 4S shop or repair facility, as clutch types may vary depending on the transmission model.

How to Install Rear Fender Mudguards?

Clean the installation area of the mudguard with a damp cloth for easier removal. When installing the mudguard, first remove the corresponding screws from the original vehicle body. Position the mudguard at the corresponding part of the vehicle, aligning it properly so that the outer edge of the mudguard is parallel to the outer edge of the tire. Secure it in place using the dedicated screws and tighten them.

Should You Drive on the Highway After Adding Fuel Additive?

No need to drive on the highway; driving slowly in the city is more effective. The following are the functions of fuel additives: 1. Clean the fuel system: High-quality gasoline additives contain purification factors that can remove harmful substances such as gum and engine carbon deposits from the fuel. Continuous use can eliminate carbon buildup in the fuel injectors, intake valves, and intake manifolds, restoring the vehicle's original power and maintaining optimal performance over the long term. 2. Improve atomization: Gasoline additives use nano-molecular materials to directly break down long-chain carbon bonds in fuel molecules, creating "micro-explosions" in the combustion chamber, which leads to secondary atomization of gasoline, promoting complete combustion, improving thermal efficiency, and reducing fuel consumption. Real-world tests show that gasoline additives can save 3–15% of fuel, especially during long-distance highway driving, where the savings are more noticeable. 3. Protect the engine: High-quality gasoline additives are composed of organic nano-molecules, cleaning activation factors, antioxidants, anti-corrosion agents, demulsifiers, and more than 10 other materials. They are specifically designed to counteract harmful components like sulfur, gum, and engine carbon deposits. Gasoline additives also have functions such as oxidation resistance, cleaning, dispersion, demulsification, anti-corrosion, and lubrication. 4. Reduce wear: Excessive engine noise is not only due to poor vehicle sealing but also because internal carbon deposits and sludge accelerate engine wear. High-quality gasoline additives with cleaning, oxidation resistance, and lubrication properties can significantly improve this phenomenon. Removing carbon deposits and gum can noticeably reduce engine wear, thereby lowering engine noise and extending engine lifespan.

How to judge the 30cm distance between the car and the line using rearview mirrors?

Most methods involve dividing the car into three equal parts, aligning the outer one-third of the front hood with the right sideline while driving. From the driver's seat view, when the raised portion of the left wiper aligns with the right sideline on the ground, the car body is approximately 30cm away from the right edge. Through the right rearview mirror, observe the front door handle - when it appears tangent to the right sideline, the distance between the car body and the right road edge is roughly 30cm.
