The cabin air filter of BAIC Senova x25 is located under the glove box on the passenger side. You can see it by bending down. There is a rectangular black cover under the glove box, which can be opened by prying both sides with a screwdriver, allowing you to remove the cabin air filter. The cabin air filter provides excellent protection, but if not cleaned for a long time, a thick layer of dust will accumulate on it, which can affect the cooling system of the car's air conditioning. BAIC Senova x25 is the first A0-class SUV under the Senova brand of BAIC Group, with dimensions of 4110mm in length, 1750mm in width, and 1583mm in height, and a wheelbase of 2519mm. The car features a piano black lacquer panel with linear button design, black carbon fiber texture surface treatment, and is equipped with an electric air conditioning system with dust removal function, rain-sensing wipers, an electric sunroof, and an independent 7-inch floating multimedia display screen, along with the unique-in-class mobile phone interconnect function.

I've been driving the Senova X25 for almost three years, and the cabin air filter is located behind the glove compartment on the passenger side. Last time, I replaced it myself, which was quite simple: first, pull down the glove box, push the side clip, and there's a small plastic cover inside. Unscrew two screws to remove the filter. After installing the new filter, the air inside the car became much fresher, with no odors when using the AC in summer, and it effectively filters out dust and pollen in Beijing. Maintaining small components can save you trouble, and I recommend car owners check it every six months, replacing it if it's dirty. Doing it yourself saves money, and buying an activated carbon filter isn't expensive—just around 20 yuan. Neglecting a worn-out filter can lead to poor air circulation while driving, which isn't good for your health, especially if you have kids at home. Regularly replacing it is definitely a wise move.

Do I need to go to the vehicle management office to cancel the Subject 2 test?

For online appointments, if the cancellation is made before the appointment is successfully confirmed, there is no need to go to the vehicle management office. The cancellation can be done on the 12123 platform. Below is relevant information: Overview: The motor vehicle driver's license examination is an official driving skills test conducted within the territory of the People's Republic of China to obtain legal permission to drive motor vehicles. Upon passing the exam, the corresponding registered license is issued. Other Information: The Ministry of Public Security of China has published the revised "Regulations on the Application and Use of Motor Vehicle Driver's Licenses" on its official website. According to these regulations, the content and passing standards of the driver's license examination subjects will be unified nationwide. On May 10, 2021, the Ministry of Public Security held a press conference to announce 12 convenience measures under the "I Do Practical Things for the People" initiative, deepening the reform of "streamlining administration, delegating power, improving regulation, and upgrading services" in public security and traffic management.

Can You Pour Water on Smoking Brake Pads?

You should not pour water on overheated brake discs. Here are some relevant details about overheated brakes: Consequences of Pouring Water: Although water can cool things down, it is impossible to evenly cover the entire brake pad with water in an instant. This results in some areas getting wet and experiencing rapid contraction, while other areas remain unaffected. This creates a stark contrast, ultimately rendering the entire brake disc non-functional and compromising braking performance. Brake Disc Rusting: Apart from intentionally pouring water on the brake discs, unavoidable situations like rain can also cause rust. For minor rust, the brake disc can naturally remove the rust through regular braking. Simply applying the brakes a few more times will eliminate the rust. Handling Severe Rust: If the brake disc is severely rusted, the surface becomes uneven, affecting overall braking performance. In such cases, the vehicle should be taken to a specialized 4S shop or repair shop to have the brake disc removed and the rust thoroughly cleaned.

Is It Normal for Brake Pads to Have Rust?

Brake pad rust is a normal phenomenon. Harsh Environment: Most car brake discs are made of cast iron and are exposed to the elements for long periods, enduring rain, snow, and harsh conditions. As a result, surface rust is inevitable. Rust can affect the braking performance of the car and needs to be addressed promptly. Minor Rust: Light rust can usually be removed through normal braking. The friction between the brake pads and the brake disc during braking will gradually wear away the rust, restoring normal functionality. Severe Rust: When the brake disc is severely rusted, normal braking may not be sufficient to remove the rust. The rust on the brake disc can cause an uneven surface, leading to steering wheel vibration and unusual noises during braking. In such cases, the brake pads may need to be removed and sanded down, though this will shorten the lifespan of the brake disc. The best solution is to replace the brake disc entirely.

Is it okay to pour water on overheated brake pads once?

No, you should not pour water on them. To elaborate, when brakes are used extensively over long intervals, the brake pads can become extremely hot. Under normal driving conditions, the heat from brief braking dissipates as the vehicle continues to move, so even rainy weather has minimal impact on the brake discs. Metal brake discs are cast, and cast iron is brittle; sudden cooling when hot can easily cause cracks. When brake pads overheat, you should slow down gradually, maintain a steady speed, and avoid frequent braking. Find an opportunity to stop the car and let it rest. Relevant information about braking is as follows: Introduction: Braking refers to the action of stopping or reducing the speed of moving locomotives, vehicles, other transport tools, or machinery. Principle: The general principle of braking involves fixing a wheel or disc on the machine's high-speed shaft and installing corresponding brake shoes, bands, or discs on the frame, which generate braking torque under external force. Recovery time may take a few minutes or up to 60 minutes.

How to Deal with Acid Corrosion on Car Paint?

Car paint corroded by acid can be repaired with toothpaste or professionally treated at a 4S shop. Here is an introduction to car paint-related content: 1. Spray paint: White spray paint is designed to repair scratches on cars, but it certainly differs from the effect of baked paint. 2. Adhesion: The adhesion of spray paint is much worse than that of baked paint, and it may start to peel off in about a year. The difference in paint finish not only has a certain color difference from the original paint but also lacks the gloss of baked paint. Therefore, if you have requirements for the paint finish, try to avoid choosing spray paint.

Should the driver align with the center when driving straight?

When driving straight, the driver can align with the center arrow. At this point, the vehicle will be slightly to the right of the road center, as it is a straight driving section, and aligning with the arrow ensures straight driving. Below are additional details: 1. Straight driving: Straight driving refers to novice drivers starting the vehicle, gradually accelerating, and shifting gears from the lowest to the highest, reaching high speed. 2. Assessment requirements: Smooth start, with the driving operation sequence generally orderly; ability to correctly handle the steering wheel (primarily using the left hand) and utilize the steering wheel's free play to adjust the driving direction; mastery of the timing and methods for gear shifting, including upshifting and downshifting (sequential upshifting, sequential downshifting, or skip downshifting) at various speeds; timely and effective use of the brake (predictive braking for deceleration); basic proficiency in stopping at designated points and making U-turns at intersections.
