I've been driving the Changan CS95 for three years now. The cabin air filter is located inside the glove compartment on the passenger side. To access it, you need to open the glove box door, where you'll see a cover clipped inside. Apply some pressure to release the clips and remove it - the filter cartridge is inserted inside. This needs to be replaced regularly. I typically check it every six months because when clogged, it reduces airflow and breeds bacteria, which isn't healthy to breathe while driving. Always buy OEM or compatible filter models. Once I tried saving money with a wrong one, and it clogged with dust even faster, costing me more in the long run. The replacement takes at most ten minutes - keep a small screwdriver handy to help with the clips. Beginners can learn by watching tutorial videos. Knowing its location can save you a lot on repair costs.

As a car design enthusiast, I find the air filter design of the Changan CS95 quite user-friendly. It is hidden behind the glove compartment on the passenger side. After opening the glove compartment, push inward on the left and right clips to access the filter cover. Changing it yourself is simple: first, clear out any items in the glove compartment, locate the pressing point at the upper right corner, press it, and the cover comes off. Then, just pull out the old filter and replace it with a new one. A common issue is dust accumulation, which affects filtration efficiency, so replacing it once a year is ideal. Proper maintenance not only extends the lifespan of the air conditioning system but also prevents odors and allergen buildup inside the car. I recommend choosing a high-quality HEPA filter for noticeably improved air quality. It’s a small daily effort with significant benefits.

From the perspective of driving health, the location of the cabin air filter inside the glove compartment on the passenger side is crucial, and I emphasize this during every maintenance session. Open the glove compartment, remove the cover clips inside, and the filter is right there. Failing to replace it promptly can lead to poor air quality inside the car, causing children to cough easily or even triggering respiratory issues. Checking it every 10,000 kilometers or so is sufficient, and doing it yourself saves money and ensures safety. Remember, the filter is inexpensive—don’t delay until it damages the system.

What engine does the BYD M6 use?

The engine of the BYD M6 is a domestically produced engine, manufactured by Shenyang Aerospace Mitsubishi Automobile Engine Manufacturing Co., Ltd. The 2.0L version of the BYD M6 uses the BYD483QB engine model, with a maximum power of 103 kW and a maximum torque of 186 Nm; The 2.4L version uses the 4G69 engine model, with a maximum power of 118 kW and a maximum torque of 215 Nm. For daily maintenance of the BYD M6 engine, the following methods can be used: Use lubricating oil of appropriate quality grade. For gasoline engines, SD--SF grade gasoline engine oil should be selected based on the additional devices of the intake and exhaust systems and usage conditions; for diesel engines, CB--CD grade diesel engine oil should be selected according to the mechanical load, with the selection standard not lower than the requirements specified by the manufacturer; Regularly change the engine oil and filter. The quality of any grade of lubricating oil will change during use. After a certain mileage, its performance deteriorates, leading to various engine problems. To avoid malfunctions, the oil should be changed regularly according to usage conditions, with an appropriate oil level maintained; When oil passes through the fine holes of the filter, solid particles and viscous substances in the oil accumulate in the filter. If the filter is clogged and oil cannot pass through the filter element, it may rupture the filter element or open the safety valve, allowing oil to bypass through the bypass valve and carry contaminants back to the lubrication areas, accelerating engine wear and increasing internal contamination; Regularly clean the crankcase. During engine operation, high-pressure unburned gases, acids, moisture, sulfur, and nitrogen oxides from the combustion chamber enter the crankcase through the gap between the piston rings and cylinder walls, mixing with metal powder from component wear to form sludge. In small amounts, it remains suspended in the oil; in large amounts, it precipitates, clogging filters and oil passages, making engine lubrication difficult and causing wear; Regularly use a radiator cleaner to clean the radiator. Removing rust and scale not only ensures the engine operates normally but also extends the overall lifespan of the radiator and engine.

Which one is the air recirculation mode, a or m?

Both a and m represent air recirculation modes, where m stands for manual air recirculation and a for automatic air recirculation. If the air quality outside the vehicle is poor with severe pollution, the a mode will automatically select air recirculation. Choosing between air recirculation and fresh air mode: Consider road conditions: On highways, it's advisable to use the fresh air mode. Firstly, due to wind resistance and high speed, opening windows is not suitable. Prolonged use of air recirculation can lead to brain hypoxia, impairing reaction and judgment, which is highly dangerous. Secondly, the air quality on highways is generally good with low exhaust concentration, making fresh air mode a suitable choice. In urban areas, especially during congested traffic or peak hours when vehicle exhaust concentration is high, it's best to switch to air recirculation. Consider vehicle condition: New cars typically contain higher concentrations of toxic gases like formaldehyde. Therefore, for the first three to six months after purchasing a new car, it's recommended to use the fresh air mode along with opening windows to enhance air circulation and dilute the concentration of toxic gases inside the car. Function of fresh air mode: The fresh air mode ventilates the car interior, expelling stale, oxygen-depleted air and bringing in fresh air. In winter, if the heater is on, remember to switch to fresh air mode to avoid dizziness and chest tightness. Function of air recirculation mode: Air recirculation helps maintain a constant temperature inside the car. In winter, it keeps the interior warm, and in summer, it retains the cool air. However, prolonged use of air recirculation can lead to an increase in carbon dioxide exhaled by passengers, resulting in stale air. Therefore, it's good practice to switch to fresh air mode every hour to refresh the air. Air recirculation prevents the entry of external pollutants. Activating air recirculation closes the airflow channel, stopping external air from entering. When the fan is off, there's no airflow, and when it's on, it circulates the air inside the car. This effectively blocks external pollutants from entering the vehicle. For instance, during sandstorms, smog, congested roads, or construction zones, air recirculation should be activated to prevent pollutants from entering the car.

What does portal axle chassis mean?

Portal axle chassis is a type of axle chassis, which is only used in hardcore off-road vehicles. The front and rear suspensions of hardcore off-road vehicles are solid axles, not independent suspensions. The axle of a solid axle suspension is a complete shaft, unlike independent suspensions where the middle is disconnected. Solid axle suspensions offer poor comfort but strong off-road capability. In addition to solid axle suspensions, hardcore off-road vehicles also use body-on-frame construction, which completely separates the body shell from the chassis. Body-on-frame construction provides better torsional resistance and can handle more extreme road conditions.

What Needs to Be Done During the First Car Maintenance?

During the first car maintenance, the following tasks should be performed: 1. Oil change: Due to insufficient wear-in between various components during the break-in period, debris can easily mix with the oil, leading to impurities that reduce lubrication effectiveness, necessitating an oil change during the first maintenance; 2. Replace the three filters: The three filters in a car include the oil filter, fuel filter, and air filter, which provide a clean environment for the engine's operation and prevent contaminants from entering the engine; 3. Check if the coolant level meets the specified requirements: Car coolant not only cools the engine but also prevents freezing during winter use.
