The engine number of the Bora is located on the front side wall of the engine block, below the front windshield near the wipers. There is a small horizontal strip, and the engine number is found below the barcode on this strip. The engine model is an identification code assigned by the engine manufacturer in accordance with relevant regulations, corporate or industry practices, and the attributes of the engine, used to represent information such as the manufacturer, specifications, performance, features, processes, purpose, and production batch of the engine. This includes details like fuel type, number of cylinders, displacement, and static braking power. It is important to note that the engine number is not the same as the engine model. The engine model refers to the specifications and size of the engine within the manufacturer's lineup, and multiple engines can share the same model. The engine number, however, refers to the production serial number of the engine, with each engine having a unique number that cannot be duplicated. Composition of the engine number: Front section: Includes the product series code, generation symbol, and regional or corporate code. These are letters chosen by the manufacturer as needed but must be approved and filed by the industry standard regulatory body. Middle section: Consists of symbols for the number of cylinders, cylinder arrangement, stroke, and cylinder diameter. Rear section: Comprises symbols for structural features and usage characteristics. Tail section: Distinguishing symbols. When differentiation is required due to improvements or other reasons within the same product series, the manufacturer selects appropriate symbols to indicate this. The rear and tail sections can be separated by a hyphen (-).

What is the normal range for instantaneous fuel consumption?

Modern electronic fuel injection engines can cut off fuel supply during coasting, so the minimum instantaneous fuel consumption is 0. The maximum is essentially the upper limit set by the vehicle model—some cars have a limit of 49.9, while others may go up to 99.9. Below is relevant information: Introduction: Instantaneous fuel consumption indicates the fuel usage at a specific moment. The display unit is "liters per 100 kilometers (L/100Km)" when the vehicle is in motion, and "liters per hour (L/H)" when the engine is running but the vehicle is stationary. Significance of instantaneous fuel consumption: Monitoring instantaneous fuel consumption is crucial for understanding the engine's fuel usage under different conditions. For example, it helps determine fuel consumption when the vehicle is stationary with the engine idling. It also allows you to assess the fuel consumption per 100 kilometers at various speeds (aerodynamic drag, which significantly impacts fuel consumption, is proportional to the square of the speed), helping identify the vehicle's most fuel-efficient speed. For vehicles with computer-controlled fuel injection, instantaneous fuel consumption can show "0" during gear coasting (when the fuel injectors stop supplying fuel).

How many kilometers do car tires need to be replaced?

Tire replacement intervals are generally around 2-3 years or after driving 60,000-100,000 kilometers. Of course, the service life specified by different brands may vary, as requirements for tires differ slightly. However, relying solely on a numerical value to determine replacement time is insufficient—the actual condition of the tire should ultimately decide. There are many influencing factors, and if any of the following situations occur, there may be potential safety hazards, necessitating timely replacement of a new tire. Below are relevant details: Wear level: The most direct method is to observe the tire's wear level. Almost every tire has a wear indicator. Generally, the wear indicator height for passenger car tires is 1.6 millimeters (this is also the legally mandated minimum groove depth), while for load-bearing tires, it is 2.4 millimeters. If the wear indicator aligns with the tread, it indicates significant wear and the tire should be replaced promptly. Tire aging: Of course, merely checking the wear level isn't enough, as some car owners rarely use their vehicles and thus experience minimal tire wear. Over time, aging phenomena (such as tread cracks and hardened rubber) will inevitably occur. Especially if the tire has exceeded its replacement cycle, it's crucial to regularly inspect its condition. If the aging is severe, immediate replacement is necessary.

What does an agreement car mean?

An agreement car refers to a vehicle where the license plate is registered under someone else's name, typically the agreement holder, while the vehicle ownership is registered under the other party involved in the agreement. The term 'agreement car' is not a standardized expression and generally indicates that the ownership of the vehicle is determined through an agreement between the two parties. Below is relevant information: Article 18, Paragraph 1 of the 'Motor Vehicle Regulations' stipulates: 'When the ownership of a registered motor vehicle is transferred, the current owner shall apply for a transfer registration with the local vehicle management office within 30 days from the date of delivery.' According to this regulation, the current owner must complete the transfer registration within 30 days of ownership transfer. However, this is an administrative requirement rather than a validity requirement, meaning failure to complete the transfer registration does not affect the validity of the motor vehicle sales contract. Article 50 of the 'Tort Liability Law' states: 'If the parties have transferred the motor vehicle through sale or other means and delivered it but have not completed the ownership transfer registration, and a traffic accident occurs for which the motor vehicle is at fault, the insurance company shall compensate within the limits of the compulsory motor vehicle insurance liability. Any insufficient amount shall be borne by the transferee.' This provision confirms that the motor vehicle sales contract remains valid even if the transfer registration is not completed.

Does the black roof wrap exceed 30%?

It does not exceed. Generally, the area of the car roof does not exceed 30% of the entire vehicle body, so only applying a roof film does not require filing for approval. If the roof area of your car is relatively large and you are unsure whether it exceeds the standard, it is recommended to first call the vehicle management office for confirmation before making a decision. Below is relevant information: Annual inspection: It can pass the annual inspection. Because applying a black film to the roof does not constitute an illegal modification, and current laws and regulations do not explicitly prohibit vehicle color changes. However, when applying the film, we should try to avoid unconventional colors such as electro-optic film or chameleon colors, as these will not pass the annual inspection later and may also affect traffic safety to some extent. Benefits of the film: It can be removed. The advantage of the film is that it is convenient to replace later. However, we should try to use higher-quality films when choosing. If lower-quality films are used, the car paint may easily leave marks when removed later, making cleaning troublesome. Additionally, if the vehicle has undergone repainting repairs, the film should be removed gently, otherwise the repainted surface may be easily pulled off in large pieces.

How Many Kilometers Should a Car Be Driven Before Maintenance?

Generally, maintenance is required every six months or when the car has been driven approximately 5,000 kilometers. Below are relevant details about car maintenance: 1. During the break-in period, do not exceed a speed of 60 mph. 2. When a new car reaches 2,300 kilometers, it should undergo its first maintenance, which is usually free. This includes changing the engine oil, three filters (air, oil, and fuel), and gear oil. This is crucial because the initial oil and gear oil contain fine metal particles from the break-in process, which can damage the engine if not replaced. After this, change the oil and three filters every 5,000 kilometers. 3. Avoid driving at a single speed for extended periods and refrain from adding any metal anti-wear additives. 4. Start in a low gear and maintain the engine coolant temperature between 80-90°C while driving. Shift gears promptly and avoid prolonged use of a single gear, as this hinders the break-in process for all gears. Also, avoid driving at high gears with low speeds or low gears with high speeds. 5. After starting the car, let it warm up until the coolant reaches the optimal temperature before driving. Choose smooth roads, maintain moderate speeds, use gentle throttle inputs, and minimize sudden acceleration and braking. 6. Avoid towing other vehicles, as towing can cause significant harm, including engine damage or deformation of the car's frame, with no benefits.

What Causes Odor When Turning on the Car Air Conditioning?

Car air conditioning odors are caused by: 1. The air filter not being cleaned for a long time, combined with humid weather during rainy seasons, creates a damp and warm environment on the filter, leading to mold growth and a musty smell; 2. Outside air flowing through the air conditioning system pipes may leave small amounts of residual moisture that mixes with dust in the air. If not cleaned for a long time, this can also lead to mold and produce a sour, rotten odor. Here are some solutions to address car air conditioning odors: 1. Regularly clean the air conditioning system or replace the air filter to reduce mold growth; 2. Master the correct method of turning the air conditioning on and off. Generally, it is best to turn off the air conditioning 5 minutes before parking, then switch to natural air to allow the car's temperature to rise quickly. This prevents condensation from forming in the air conditioning pipes due to temperature differences after parking, keeping the pipes dry and blocking mold and fungus growth; 3. Use natural air fresheners, such as placing fruits like pineapple, lemon, or apple in the car to help eliminate odors; 4. Frequently use the AUTO button on the air conditioning panel to maintain a relatively stable temperature inside the car, ensuring comfort while also preserving air quality.
