Great Wall Haval H2 originally uses SL-grade 10W-40 semi-synthetic oil. Any oil with the same specifications can be used. Introduction to oil usage: In addition to the original oil, you can also choose oil brands such as Shell, Mobil, and Castrol. If SAE 10W-30 or higher viscosity engine oil is used in cold weather, the engine may be difficult to start. Therefore, it is recommended to use SAE 0W-20, 5W-20, or 5W-30 engine oil in northern regions. Using 0W-20 oil can maximize fuel savings. Oil change: In principle, the oil change interval for full synthetic oil is definitely longer than that of mineral oil. Generally, the oil change interval for mineral oil is around 5,000 kilometers, while full synthetic oil can last around 7,500-10,000 kilometers. Whether it is mineral oil or full synthetic oil, do not exceed one year.

What are the symptoms of a faulty tire ABS sensor?

The most direct symptom of a faulty tire ABS sensor is that the ABS warning light on the dashboard will illuminate, and the wheels may lock up during emergency braking, causing skidding and loss of control. Below is relevant information about ABS sensors: 1. Overview: The ABS sensor is used in automotive ABS (Anti-lock Braking System). Most ABS systems use inductive sensors to monitor vehicle speed. The ABS sensor interacts with a toothed ring that rotates synchronously with the wheel, outputting a set of quasi-sinusoidal AC signals whose frequency and amplitude are related to wheel speed. This output signal is transmitted to the ABS electronic control unit (ECU) for real-time monitoring of wheel speed. 2. Types: Ring-type wheel speed sensor: The ring-type wheel speed sensor mainly consists of a permanent magnet, induction coil, and toothed ring. The permanent magnet is composed of several pairs of magnetic poles. As the toothed ring rotates, the magnetic flux inside the induction coil alternates, generating an induced electromotive force. This signal is input to the ABS ECU through the cable at the end of the induction coil. When the speed of the toothed ring changes, the frequency of the induced electromotive force also changes.

Where is the BMW engine coolant located?

BMW engine coolant is located on the left side of the engine in the engine compartment. The main functions of the coolant are: 1. Preventing the coolant from freezing and cracking the radiator or damaging the engine cylinder block or head during winter parking; 2. Effectively preventing boiling during high summer temperatures to avoid overheating. BMW models include: BMW 5 Series, BMW 3 Series, BMW X1, BMW X5, BMW X3, etc. Taking the 2021 BMW 5 Series as an example, it is a mid-to-large-sized 4-door 5-seater sedan with body dimensions of: length 5106mm, width 1868mm, height 1500mm, and a wheelbase of 3105mm.

What Causes Diesel Engine Runaway in Vehicles?

Diesel engine runaway in vehicles can be caused by the following reasons: Excessive Fuel Supply: The plunger remains at the maximum fuel supply position, and the governor fails to regulate, leading to increased engine speed. The governor cannot control the fuel quantity, the fuel rack and pinion may lack alignment marks or be incorrectly installed, the plunger might be reversed, injection pressure could be too low, excessive fuel is supplied to the cylinders, the linkage may be stuck in the governor's moving parts, or worn injectors may allow excessive return fuel from the intake manifold to be drawn into the cylinders, resulting in over-fueling. Solution: Excessive diesel fuel supply causing runaway is often indicated by thick black smoke from the exhaust pipe. Inspect components of the fuel supply system, such as the fuel pump, injectors, and governor, and perform necessary repairs after analysis. Oil Burning: Excessive clearance between the piston and cylinder wall causes oil to splash into the combustion chamber during piston movement. If the oil viscosity is too low, lubrication effectiveness decreases, accelerating piston ring wear. A blocked crankcase ventilation port increases oil pressure and return resistance. Aging or failed valve stem seals allow oil to enter the combustion chamber through the gap between the valve stem and guide hole under intake manifold vacuum, leading to oil combustion. Solution: Oil entering the combustion chamber is typically indicated by blue smoke from the exhaust pipe. Check the lubrication system components to determine if the oil level is too high or if the oil does not meet specifications.

Will Adding Water to Coolant Damage the Engine?

Adding water to coolant will not damage the engine. Coolant, also known as antifreeze, serves the purpose of preventing the coolant from freezing during cold seasons, which could otherwise crack the radiator and damage the engine cylinder block. Precautions for using coolant include: 1. Do not mix different types of antifreeze; 2. Do not open the radiator cap or drain valve immediately after driving; 3. When replacing the coolant, ensure all the old antifreeze is completely removed and the radiator is thoroughly cleaned. The method for adding coolant is as follows: 1. Open the front hood and tighten the radiator drain switch; 2. Pour the coolant into the radiator until it overflows; 3. Tighten the radiator filler cap; 4. Fill the engine coolant reservoir.

Why Does the 10th Generation Civic Shake When Starting?

The reasons for the shaking when starting the 10th generation Civic are: 1. Severe engine carbon deposits, where the gasoline sprayed by the cold start injector is largely absorbed by the carbon deposits, resulting in an overly lean air-fuel mixture and making starting difficult; 2. Ignition system issues, such as poor performance of the ignition system or spark plugs; 3. Unstable oil pressure, abnormal fuel pump supply pressure, or incorrect readings and poor performance of the intake pressure sensor; 4. Aging engine components, where the engine mounts can no longer absorb the minor vibrations during operation. The 10th generation Civic is a compact 4-door, 5-seater sedan under Honda. Taking the 2021 Civic as an example, its body dimensions are: length 4517 mm, width 1799 mm, height 1434 mm, with a wheelbase of 2700 mm.
