The original factory oil specification for the 2019 Sylphy is 5W30. According to the official maintenance recommendations, SL or higher grade 5W30 oil should be used. The viscosity of the oil changes with temperature, so special attention should be paid to its performance under both low and high temperatures. For example, in 5W-30, the first number indicates low-temperature fluidity, with 5W representing the ability to withstand low temperatures down to -30°C. The smaller this number, the better the low-temperature fluidity, resulting in smoother cold starts for the car. The latter number represents the kinematic viscosity of the oil at 100°C. A higher value indicates better ability to maintain viscosity under high temperatures, which can also be understood as better lubrication performance under high-temperature conditions. The method for changing the oil in the 2019 Sylphy is as follows: Wait for the engine temperature to drop, allowing the oil to flow back into the oil pan. Use a wrench to loosen the oil drain plug and place an oil pan underneath to catch the old oil until it stops flowing. Start the engine and let it run for 30 seconds to allow the oil in the main oil passage to drain out. Use a special wrench to remove the oil filter. Apply oil to the seal of the new oil filter and tighten it clockwise by hand. Add the new oil through the oil filler cap on the engine valve cover, typically filling about three-quarters of the oil container. Start the engine and let it run for 5 minutes, checking for any leaks around the oil drain plug and oil filter. If leaks are found, repairs should be made. After stopping the engine, pull out the oil dipstick to ensure the oil level is within the standard range.

Is Car Air Conditioning Harmful to Human Health?

Car air conditioning itself is not harmful to human health. However, the interior of a car is essentially a closed space with poor air circulation. Additionally, various rubber and plastic interior components gradually release harmful substances when exposed to high temperatures during summer. Prolonged use of air conditioning in the car, combined with the infiltration of exhaust fumes from fuel combustion, further degrades the air quality inside the vehicle. Inhaling these harmful substances can lead to symptoms such as dizziness, blurred vision, chest tightness, and nausea. In severe cases, it may affect driving safety and passenger health. Here are some tips for using car air conditioning effectively: 1. Ventilate before turning it on: After the car has been parked in the sun for an extended period, open all four doors and the sunroof to allow air to circulate for 3 minutes. This helps quickly lower the interior temperature, making the air conditioning more effective when turned on. 2. Use the recirculation mode wisely: The recirculation mode blocks hot outside air, creating a sealed space inside the car where air circulates rapidly under the air conditioning to cool down quickly. Once the interior temperature has dropped, it is recommended to switch to the fresh air mode every 30 minutes to purify the air inside the car. After 5 minutes, switch back to recirculation mode. 3. Turn off the air conditioning in advance: Shut off the air conditioning 5 minutes before parking. This protects the engine and saves fuel.

What to Do If a Gasoline Car is Filled with Diesel?

If a gasoline car is filled with diesel, to avoid engine damage, it is best to drain all the fuel from the tank, clean it thoroughly, and then refill with the appropriate oil for the vehicle. Here is some relevant information: 1. Studies have shown that if the proportion of diesel added to gasoline does not exceed 5%, it generally does not cause significant damage to the engine. However, as the proportion of diesel increases, knocking and stalling may occur quickly, and in severe cases, it can lead to cylinder scoring. 2. The working conditions of gasoline engines differ from those of diesel engines. Gasoline has a lower ignition point, and gasoline cars typically ignite the air-fuel mixture via spark plugs, with lower cylinder pressure. Diesel cars, on the other hand, compress diesel fuel through a fuel injection pump to produce high-pressure diesel, which is then injected into the cylinder via the fuel injector, resulting in higher cylinder pressure, rougher operation, and larger clearance gaps. Therefore, the requirements for oil differ between gasoline and diesel engines. Gasoline engines require thinner oil with better fluidity, while diesel engines operate under higher pressure and harsher conditions, producing more carbon deposits, thus requiring oil with stronger cleaning capabilities, larger clearances, and thicker viscosity. Hence, gasoline cars should not use diesel engine oil.

How to Choose Between the 2021 Passat and Magotan?

The advantages and disadvantages of the 2021 Passat and Magotan are as follows: 1. Passat: (1) Appearance: The Passat is more corporate-oriented and old-fashioned. Although the new Passat has added many sporty elements, its elongated body disrupts the overall harmony. In particular, the rear of the car looks very different from the front. Despite the large front grille, the lack of slope makes the front appear very "dull," giving the Passat a "clumsy" look from the front. (2) Quality: Except for the 2019 Passat, other older-generation Passats are built on the PQ46 platform, featuring exquisite craftsmanship in terms of suspension and chassis tuning, seat materials, and detailed workmanship. (3) Origin: The Passat is essentially a domestically produced Volkswagen, with weaker brand recognition or product quality. 2. Magotan: (1) Appearance: The Magotan has higher overall harmony and looks very refined; it is generally sporty and can be said to suit all age groups. For example, the new Magotan exudes a strong sporty style, with more dynamic body lines. (2) Quality: The Magotan is meticulously built on Volkswagen's latest MQB platform. In terms of suspension and chassis tuning, seat materials, and detailed workmanship, the Magotan showcases exquisite German craftsmanship. (3) Origin: The Magotan is a standard joint-venture Volkswagen, with stronger brand recognition or product quality.

Do motorcycles have insurance?

Motorcycles, like cars, are classified as motor vehicles, so their insurance can generally be categorized into compulsory insurance and commercial insurance, or basic insurance and additional insurance. The following is relevant knowledge about motorcycle insurance: 1. Specific insurance coverage: This includes compulsory traffic insurance, vehicle damage insurance, third-party liability insurance, theft insurance, passenger seat liability insurance, spontaneous combustion insurance, and scratch insurance. 2. How much does motorcycle insurance cost? The cost of motorcycle insurance depends on the engine displacement of the motorcycle. If it is below 50cc, then only 80 yuan needs to be paid. However, if it exceeds 50cc and is within 250cc, then 120 yuan must be paid. And if it exceeds 250cc, a full 400 yuan must be paid.
