BYD Song Max vehicle frame number can be found in multiple parts of the car body, such as: next to the left fixing bolt of the horn bracket on the upper edge of the anti-collision beam, on the left front parallel sheet metal edge of the front compartment cover, on the sheet metal below the right side of the gear shift mechanism, below the left front door lock body, on the left side of the transmission convex feature, at the transmission arch feature, etc. Function of the frame number: The Vehicle Identification Number, abbreviated as VIN, is a unique set of seventeen letters or numbers used on a car to identify the manufacturer, engine, chassis serial number, and other performance data. Classification of frame numbers: There are mainly two formats of Vehicle Identification Numbers. The first is the ISO3779 standard adopted by the European Union, and the second standard is mainly used in North America, which is more stringent than the first, but the two are still compatible with each other.

I remember buying a BYD Song a few years ago, and the VIN stamp location was particularly easy to find. It was clearly engraved just below the lower left corner of the windshield, visible directly—just use a flashlight if the lighting is dim. Another common spot is on the edge of the radiator frame or the metal plate of the front beam after opening the hood, where it’s usually quite prominent. Every time I get a new car, I make it a habit to check this stamp first, as it’s crucial for vehicle registration and insurance claims. On BYD cars, the stamp is deeply engraved, making it resistant to wear. But if dust or dirt covers it, just wipe with a damp cloth, and it’ll show up immediately. In short, remember these two spots—most drivers can handle it easily, saving the cost of hiring a mechanic.

Correct Steps for Shifting Gears While Driving

Start in first gear, then shift to second gear after driving a few meters. When the speed reaches above 20 mph but below 35 mph, shift to third gear. When the speed reaches above 35 mph but below 45 mph, shift to fourth gear. When the speed exceeds 45 mph, shift to fifth gear. While shifting gears, ensure proper coordination between the clutch and accelerator.

What is the minimum ground clearance of the Magotan?

The minimum ground clearance of the Magotan is 114mm. The minimum ground clearance of a car refers to the shortest distance between the car's chassis and the ground when the car is fully loaded. The car's chassis affects its passability—the heavier the load, the smaller the ground clearance. The Magotan originates from the Future B6, which is closely related to the Passat B6, and it is a mid-size sedan. In terms of body dimensions, the car measures 4866mm in length, 1832mm in width, and 1464mm in height, with a wheelbase of 2812mm. The Magotan features a simple LED taillight design that reflects the combination of technology and art, while its profile maintains the classic diamond proportion and maximizes the interior space within the moderate length, width, and height dimensions.

Does the Handbrake Act on the Front or Rear Wheels?

The handbrake acts on the rear wheels. It is a frequently used component during regular vehicle operation. After parking and turning off the engine, it is necessary to engage the handbrake to prevent the car from rolling. Most mechanical handbrakes have a handbrake cable located beneath the handbrake lever, which connects to both rear wheels. When the handbrake is engaged, an indicator light on the dashboard will illuminate, and it will turn off when the handbrake is released. For automatic transmission vehicles, when parking, you should shift into 'P' (Park) and then engage the handbrake—it is also acceptable to engage the handbrake before shifting into 'P'. For manual transmission vehicles, you should shift into 'N' (Neutral) and engage the handbrake when parking. Some Japanese cars may be equipped with a foot brake system, which operates on the same principle as the handbrake but replaces the handbrake lever with a pedal.

Under What Circumstances Should a Car Battery Be Replaced?

Car battery replacement is necessary under the following circumstances: 1. The car is harder to start than usual; 2. Headlights become dimmer when idling; 3. The battery fault warning light turns on; 4. Unusual noises occur during startup; 5. The battery shows bulging or leakage; 6. Significant voltage changes before and after startup. It is important to avoid parking the car in open parking lots for extended periods. If long-term parking is unavoidable, the battery should be removed and taken away to prevent freezing damage. During winter, car engines are harder to start. Each attempt to start the car should not exceed 5 seconds, with intervals of at least 15 seconds between attempts. If the car fails to start after multiple attempts, check other aspects such as the electrical circuit, ignition coil, or fuel system instead of continuously trying to start the car, as this may cause the battery to overheat and fail due to excessive discharge.
