The cabin air filter in the Chery A3 is located beneath the front windshield, covered by a black plastic cover. The cabin air filter provides fresh air to the passenger compartment, preventing occupants from inhaling harmful gases and ensuring driving safety. After prolonged use, the activated carbon filtration function of the cabin air filter will diminish, so it should be replaced promptly. The Chery A3 is a compact car with dimensions of 4352mm in length, 1794mm in width, and 1464mm in height, with a wheelbase of 2550mm. The vehicle utilizes a significant amount of high-strength steel beams and is equipped with an ESP electronic stability system, offering both passive and active safety performance.

The air conditioning filter of the Chery A3 is located under the rain trough cover panel right below the front windshield, which can be seen after opening the hood. I've driven this car for several years and find it quite convenient to replace it myself every time. Just remove that plastic cover panel—usually by prying open the clips with your hands or a screwdriver—and the filter will be exposed. Remember to replace it regularly, about once a year or every 10,000 kilometers, otherwise dust and odors will accumulate inside the car, which is particularly bad for breathing. The location is designed quite user-friendly, unlike some older car models that require dismantling the dashboard for major work. Every time after replacement, I feel the air inside the car is much fresher, and my kids don’t cough when riding. DIY saves money and is simple, requiring few tools.

What are the reasons for false tire pressure warnings in Volkswagen vehicles?

Volkswagen tire pressure false warnings are caused by abnormal tire pressure, unreset tire pressure monitoring, or damaged tire pressure sensors. Abnormal tire pressure: Generally, the system will trigger an alert when pressure falls below 1.8 bar or exceeds 3.0 bar. In such cases, tire inspection and pressure adjustment are required. Unreset tire pressure monitoring: After inflating the tires, if the tire pressure monitoring system isn't reset promptly, it continues to record the previous data, causing the tire pressure warning light to illuminate. Simply performing a tire pressure reset will resolve this issue. Damaged tire pressure sensor: The tire pressure sensor, installed inside the tire and connected to the inflation valve, monitors tire pressure. If the sensor is damaged during driving (e.g., by hitting a curb), it will trigger the tire pressure warning light. In case of sensor damage, the only solution is to replace it with a new component.

What engine does the Volkswagen Sehol use?

The engine used in Sehol is a domestically produced engine manufactured by the Jianghuai Group. The engine model is HFC4GC1.6E, with a maximum horsepower of 184, a maximum power of 135KW, a maximum power speed of 5500rpm, and a peak torque of 300N.m. Sehol was established on April 24, 2018, and is one of the sub-brands under Volkswagen. It includes three major product categories: sedans, SUVs, and station wagons. Its models include the Sehol E50A, Sehol E40X, Sehol E20X, Sehol E10X, etc. For daily maintenance of the Sehol 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 mechanical load, with the selection standard not lower than the manufacturer's specified requirements. Regularly change the oil and oil filter. The quality of any grade of lubricating oil will change during use. After a certain mileage, performance deteriorates, causing various problems for the engine. To avoid malfunctions, change the oil regularly according to usage conditions and keep the oil level moderate. 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 burst the filter element or open the safety valve, allowing oil to bypass through the bypass valve and still carry contaminants back to the lubrication area, 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 part wear to form sludge. A small amount remains suspended in the oil, while a large amount precipitates, clogging the filter 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.

What do 'power' and 'charge' mean in Mercedes-Benz?

In Mercedes-Benz vehicles, 'charge' means: charging. 'Power' refers to energy or battery level. Here are the detailed explanations: Meaning: The term 'charge' inherently means charging, and when it appears on the dashboard of a Mercedes-Benz, it indicates charging the start-stop battery. Engine start-stop refers to the temporary pause of the engine during brief stops, such as waiting at traffic lights, while the lubricating oil continues to flow, ensuring no damage to the engine upon restart. Reason for charging: When the engine starts, it requires power supply to the starter motor, leading to frequent battery discharge. The battery must support the car's audio and lighting systems. When 'charge' appears on the dashboard, the onboard charger is charging the battery, ensuring that even when the engine is not restarted during start-stop, the battery can still meet the vehicle's electrical demands. Without this charging, even during a brief stop like waiting at a traffic light, the car's audio, lighting, and other electrical systems would lose power and become unusable due to lack of energy supply.
