2011 Haval H5 models were not equipped with cabin air filters. The air conditioning systems with cabin air filters started being installed in the second half of 2012. The 2011 Haval H5 is a compact SUV with the following dimensions: length 4650mm, width 1800mm, height 1755mm, wheelbase 2700mm, and a fuel tank capacity of 70 liters. It features a double-wishbone torsion bar independent front suspension and a five-link non-independent rear suspension. The vehicle is powered by a 2.0L naturally aspirated engine producing 122PS maximum horsepower, 90kW maximum power, and 170Nm maximum torque, paired with a 5-speed manual transmission.

My 2011 Haval H5 has its cabin air filter hidden behind the glove compartment on the passenger side. To locate it, first open the glove box door, then remove the plastic panel or small cover inside - you'll find a rectangular filter housing there. Many owners like me initially thought it was in the engine bay, but this clever interior placement is actually quite thoughtful. I recommend replacing it annually before summer, especially during dusty seasons, to prevent blowing out particles that could affect breathing. From personal experience, it's an easy DIY job taking just minutes - no need to pay mechanics for this simple maintenance.

What should be noted for safe driving in summer?

Here are the precautions for safe driving in summer: Check tire pressure before traveling: When driving long distances, it is best to inflate the tires according to the recommended tire pressure. Never set the tire pressure too high, as the road temperature is already high, and prolonged friction between the tires and the ground will cause the tire pressure to rise continuously. Excessive tire pressure can easily lead to a blowout. If the car does not have a tire pressure monitoring system, you can purchase one at an auto parts store to monitor the tire pressure at all times and ensure it remains normal. Ventilate the car by opening windows before entering: Due to the low boiling point of formaldehyde, its release rate in high temperatures can be 20-30% higher than usual. Therefore, a car that has been exposed to intense sunlight will have significantly increased formaldehyde levels. Opening the windows for ventilation first can help avoid inhaling carcinogenic gases like formaldehyde and benzene. Avoid driving for too long in high temperatures: Generally, in the high temperatures of summer, it is best not to drive on highways for more than 3 hours at a time. This is because daytime driving in summer often involves ambient temperatures above 35°C, with road surface temperatures reaching at least 60°C. The heat radiating from the ground creates a heat wave around the engine, affecting its cooling performance. Never drive in sandals: Some people prefer the coolness and breathability of sandals, but driving in them is dangerous and constitutes a traffic violation. Sunglasses should not be too dark: While sunglasses can block sunlight and protect the eyes, they can also impair vision. For example, when entering a tunnel, the sudden dimming of light can make it harder to see the road with dark sunglasses, delaying the driver's reaction time to emergencies and potentially leading to incorrect judgments. Beware of drowsy driving: The summer heat and poor air circulation can easily cause driver fatigue, leading to drowsiness, blurred vision, and slowed thinking, all of which can result in traffic accidents. When driving in hot summer weather, try to maintain a well-ventilated cabin with suitable temperature and humidity. If you feel tired, pull over and rest immediately instead of forcing yourself to continue driving.

Is the Geely Icon part of the Emgrand series?

Geely Icon belongs to the Emgrand series, but its design philosophy, including aspects such as exterior and interior, differs significantly from the Emgrand series. Icon's design philosophy: The Geely ICON adopts a futuristic design style, achieving a 90% restoration of the concept car CONCEPT-ICON. It uses technology to define design syntax, integrating three core design elements—"time symbols," "rounded rectangles," and "star cluster patterns"—throughout the vehicle's styling. The side profile of the Geely ICON features an inward concave waistline design, which echoes the shoulder lines running across the front face and the lines extending to the rear, collectively shaping a full and robust side profile, making the ICON's overall appearance more minimalist and cohesive. Emgrand's design philosophy: Emgrand advocates for "excellence, stability, and prestige" as its brand proposition, representing Geely's development direction in safety, energy efficiency, and environmental protection. The front face adopts the family-style water ripple grille, paired with a black-and-blue logo, creating a very harmonious look. On either side are sharp LED headlight clusters, and the body lines are smooth and powerful, delivering a dynamic and elegant driving experience.

What Causes the Steering Wheel of Volvo S90 to Make Abnormal Noises When Turning?

Abnormal noises when turning the steering wheel may include sounds from the turn signal reset, noises from the steering column dust cover, sounds emanating from within the steering wheel, noises from the shock absorber plane bearing, or sounds from the stabilizer bar. Here are the specific details: 1. Sounds from the turn signal reset: If the turn signal is activated while turning, the noise might be from the rebound clip of the automatic turn signal reset mechanism. This situation requires confirmation. If it is indeed the case, then this is a normal occurrence. 2. Noises from the steering column dust cover: If the noise comes from below the steering wheel, it might be from the steering column dust cover. Due to insufficient lubrication of the dust cover, friction sounds can occur. In this case, applying some grease inside the dust cover will eliminate the noise. 3. Noises emanating from within the steering wheel If the noise comes from inside the steering wheel, the issue is most likely caused by the airbag clock spring inside. Remove the steering wheel airbag clock spring and apply some grease to see if the noise persists. If it still occurs, replace the airbag clock spring as it may be damaged. Be gentle when removing the steering wheel, or disconnect the airbag fuse to prevent the airbag from deploying. 4. Noises from the shock absorber plane bearing: If the noise originates outside the vehicle, it might be due to insufficient lubrication of the shock absorber plane bearing. Open the hood and listen to see if the noise is coming from the shock absorber top mount. This will confirm if the noise is from the plane bearing. Applying grease to the plane bearing may help. If the noise persists after greasing, replacement is necessary. 5. Noises from the stabilizer bar: If the noise is not from the shock absorber, check if the stabilizer bar bushings are loose or damaged. Loose or damaged stabilizer bar bushings can cause noises not only when turning the steering wheel but also when driving over uneven roads. Loose bushings can be fixed by adding shims, but damaged ones must be replaced.

How long can a truck's annual inspection be overdue?

Truck annual inspections cannot be overdue by more than 30 days. Vehicles must undergo annual inspections once per year. For vehicles over 10 years old, inspections are required every 6 months. Small and micro non-operating passenger vehicles require inspections every 2 years within the first 6 years, then annually after 6 years, and every 6 months after 15 years. If a motor vehicle fails to obtain an inspection compliance mark for 3 consecutive inspection cycles after the expiration of its valid inspection period, it will be mandatorily scrapped. The required documents and procedures for vehicle annual inspection are as follows: 1. Required materials: Original "Motor Vehicle License Plate Application Form": (Signed by the authorized person for company vehicles, or by the owner for private vehicles). Motor vehicle compulsory traffic accident liability insurance certificate; 2. Copy of vehicle and vessel tax payment or tax exemption certificate: If tax payment information is noted on the compulsory traffic accident liability insurance certificate, provide the insurance certificate; 3. Original motor vehicle safety technical inspection compliance certificate: Original "Motor Vehicle Registration Certificate". For entrusted issuance of inspection compliance marks, also provide the original "Notice of Entrusted Issuance of Inspection Compliance Mark"; 4. Proxy registration: Additionally provide the agent's identity proof and the original legally effective written power of attorney issued by the vehicle owner.
