The cabin air filter in Changan Oushang is located inside the glove compartment in front of the front passenger seat. To replace it, the glove compartment needs to be removed. Taking the Changan Oushang X7 as an example, it is positioned as a compact SUV with body dimensions of 4705mm in length, 1860mm in width, and 1720mm in height, and a wheelbase of 2780mm.

I recently replaced the air conditioning filter for my Changan Oushan, which is hidden behind the glove compartment on the passenger side. When removing the glove box, first empty its contents, then locate the plastic clips on both sides and squeeze them inward firmly to detach the entire box. Lift the rectangular cover panel at the back to reveal the filter slot. When pulling out the old filter, remember the direction of the airflow arrow—the new filter must be inserted in the same direction, otherwise it will affect filtration efficiency. DIY replacement is the most cost-effective, costing just 20 yuan. It’s recommended to replace it annually before summer, especially in dusty northern areas. Be careful not to force plastic parts during disassembly—last time, I accidentally broke a clip and had to pay 50 yuan for repairs. Searching for a tutorial specific to your car model online is safer.

What Does It Mean When the Engine Malfunction Indicator Light Comes On?

The engine malfunction indicator light may come on due to the following 7 main reasons: Sensor malfunction: The sensors referred to here include those for coolant temperature, crankshaft position, air flow, intake air temperature, oxygen, etc. When these sensors are damaged, have poor contact, or experience signal interruption, the vehicle's ECU cannot accurately obtain engine data, which may trigger the engine malfunction light. Fuel quality issues: Failure to add fuel and engine oil as required by the manufacturer may cause engine wear, leading to the illumination of the malfunction light. Poor combustion of the air-fuel mixture: Poor combustion can cause engine carbon buildup or knocking. When detected by the oxygen sensor and reported to the ECU, the malfunction light will illuminate as a warning. Issues such as spark plug failure, ignition coil failure, fuel pump failure, or fuel line blockage can all lead to poor combustion of the engine's air-fuel mixture. Turbocharging issues: Problems with the intake boost piping or turbocharger can also cause the engine malfunction light to come on. The most common issue is turbocharger damage, accompanied by symptoms such as oil leaks, high oil consumption, reduced power, metallic noises, or blue/black smoke from the exhaust pipe. Intake issues: If there is a problem with the vehicle's intake, it may lead to engine pipe blockage, and in severe cases, trigger the engine malfunction light. A dirty air filter that is not cleaned regularly can cause intake problems. Exhaust issues: Exhaust system faults can also cause the engine malfunction light to illuminate. Common causes include rear oxygen sensor failure, three-way catalytic converter failure, exhaust camshaft and bearing failure, with the three-way catalytic converter being the most frequent issue. The use of leaded gasoline, lead or silicon-containing lubricant additives, physical damage to the catalytic converter, or engine fuel supply system failures can easily lead to three-way catalytic converter problems. Anti-theft system malfunction: If the vehicle's electronic anti-theft system malfunctions, or if the anti-theft controller does not match the engine electronic controller, the anti-theft system can prevent the engine from operating normally, accompanied by the illumination of the engine malfunction light. If the engine malfunction light comes on, follow these steps: First, check whether the engine is running normally, and if there are issues such as shaking or black smoke, avoid restarting the engine. Particularly, do not restart the engine if the red light is on. If the engine can be started, turn it off for 5-10 minutes, then without pressing the brake, press the start button once, or without depressing the clutch, turn the key halfway to the 'on' position. The vehicle will perform a self-check after powering on. Observe whether the malfunction light on the dashboard goes off after 5-10 seconds. If the malfunction light remains on, visit a service station as soon as possible to diagnose the issue. The service station can use a portable diagnostic tool to read the fault codes, obtain fault information, and perform targeted repairs.

Do Toyota Cars Have Anti-Collision Beams?

Toyota cars are equipped with anti-collision beams. These beams are U-shaped channels made from cold-rolled steel plates through stamping, connected to the vehicle's longitudinal beams. They serve as passive safety devices in automobiles, absorbing and mitigating external impact forces to protect the front and rear parts of the vehicle body. Taking the Toyota Levin as an example, it is a compact 4-door, 5-seater sedan with body dimensions of 4640mm in length, 1780mm in width, and 1455mm in height, a wheelbase of 2700mm, and a fuel tank capacity of 50 liters. The Toyota Levin is powered by a 1.2T turbocharged engine, delivering a maximum power of 85 kilowatts and a maximum torque of 185 Newton-meters, paired with a continuously variable transmission.
