The engine number of the Ford Explorer is located directly below the front passenger seat, near the chassis close to the foot pedal area. There are two sets of numbers spaced 40 cm apart, with the rear set being the vehicle identification number. Below is an introduction to the Ford Territory: 1. The vehicle is equipped with a 1.5-liter turbocharged engine across all models. The engine code is JX4G15C6L, with a maximum power output of 103 kW and a maximum torque of 225 Nm. The engine reaches its maximum power at 4500 to 5200 rpm and its maximum torque at 1500 to 4000 rpm. 2. This engine features direct fuel injection technology and uses an aluminum alloy cylinder head and block. It is paired with either a 6-speed manual transmission or a CVT transmission. The CVT transmission is simple in structure, compact, and lightweight, offering good reliability and durability. 3. The front suspension uses a MacPherson independent suspension, while the rear suspension employs a multi-link independent suspension. The multi-link independent suspension provides better road-holding performance than a torsion beam suspension, as well as superior handling and ride comfort.

As a long-time Ford owner, I remember when I first looked for the engine number on my Territory. Opening the hood revealed it engraved on the right side of the engine block, near the radiator, with clearly arranged digits – though often covered in dust. I suggest finding a well-lit spot or using a flashlight to illuminate the area, as small details are easily missed. Always ensure the engine is off and cooled to avoid burns. While the manual can help, hands-on inspection is more intuitive than reading. If the number appears unclear, oxidation or grime might be the cause – gentle cleaning works better than harsh scrubbing to prevent damage. This number matters for transfers and maintenance, so neglecting it means panic when urgently needed. I once delayed a transfer due to last-minute searching, which taught me to check it regularly.

What is the reason for difficulty in shifting gears after changing the transmission oil?

The reason for difficulty in shifting gears after changing the transmission oil is: excessive transmission oil, which submerges the gears; foam generated by gear agitation, causing the transmission to slip and lose power; poor quality transmission oil. Transmission oil is a lubricant used to keep the shifting system clean, and its functions are: ensuring the normal operation of the transmission and extending the life of the transmission device; providing effective lubrication at low temperatures; reducing oil loss under harsh operating conditions. The following are the steps for changing transmission oil: 1. Remove the drain plug at the bottom of the transmission to drain the old oil. 2. Remove the inner and outer shells of the transmission. 3. Remove the transmission oil filter. 4. Take off the oil pan gasket and clean the surrounding stains. 5. Wipe the cleaned transmission oil filter with cotton yarn. 6. Add new oil.

Can Auto Start-Stop Be Turned Off?

Auto start-stop can be turned off. Below is relevant information about the auto start-stop feature: 1. Introduction: The auto start-stop function, also known as the engine auto start-stop system. Simply put, it automatically shuts off the engine when the vehicle comes to a temporary stop (e.g., at a red light) while driving. When it's time to move forward again, the system automatically restarts the engine. The auto start-stop feature helps reduce emissions and lower fuel consumption during stops at traffic lights or short-term parking. 2. Working Principle: By integrating an enhanced motor with idle start-stop capability into a conventional engine, the system completely shuts off the engine when idle stop conditions are met. When the vehicle needs to move again, the idle start-stop motor system quickly responds to the driver's command, rapidly restarting the engine for seamless transition, thereby significantly reducing fuel consumption and exhaust emissions.

Is a Multi-Point Fuel Injection Engine Prone to Carbon Deposits?

Multi-point fuel injection engines are prone to carbon deposits. The effects of engine carbon deposits on a car are as follows: 1. Reduced engine power: This means the power output becomes uneven and gradually diminishes, in other words, the car becomes increasingly less powerful. 2. Increased fuel consumption: This adds to your financial burden. 3. Difficult cold starts: This means the car has trouble starting, making it harder to ignite. 4. Cylinder knocking: Severe carbon deposits in the combustion chamber can also cause cylinder knocking, resulting in noise during low-speed acceleration, damage to the piston and crankshaft, and engine overheating, which severely affects car safety. 5. Exceeding emission standards: This not only causes the car to fail annual inspections but also directly exacerbates environmental pollution.

What Causes Steering Wheel Noise in Cars?

Causes of steering wheel noise in cars include: friction between the steering column and floor mats, faulty clock spring, insufficient lubrication in the shock absorber's plain bearing, and loose stabilizer bar bushings. Below are detailed explanations: 1. Friction between the steering column and floor mats: If the noise comes from below the steering wheel, it may be due to oversized floor mats installed in the car that come into direct contact with the steering column. As the steering column rotates, friction occurs. If lubrication is lacking, this friction can produce noise, which can be resolved by applying lubricating oil. 2. Faulty clock spring: If the noise originates from inside the steering wheel, it might be due to a faulty clock spring inside the steering wheel. In this case, remove the clock spring from the steering wheel, apply grease, and observe if the noise persists. If the noise continues, the clock spring needs to be replaced. 3. Insufficient lubrication in the shock absorber's plain bearing: If the noise comes from outside the vehicle, it may be caused by insufficient lubrication in the shock absorber's plain bearing. Applying grease can resolve this issue. If the noise persists after lubrication, the plain bearing needs to be replaced. 4. Loose stabilizer bar bushings: If the noise does not originate from the shock absorber's plain bearing, check if the stabilizer bar bushings are loose or damaged. Loose or damaged stabilizer bar bushings can cause noise not only when turning the steering wheel but also when driving over uneven roads. This can be fixed by adding shims, but if the bushings are damaged, they need to be replaced.

What documents are required for the first maintenance of a Magotan?

The items required for the first maintenance include: driver's license; maintenance manual; warranty manual; owner's ID card; vehicle's registration certificate; vehicle's purchase invoice. Take these to the designated first maintenance facility for the vehicle's initial service. Important note: Make an appointment with the 4S shop in advance. The first maintenance refers to the initial service after a new car has been driven. The specific timing varies by vehicle, typically after driving 1,000 to 3,000 kilometers. It is essential to attend the first maintenance promptly, neither in advance nor delayed. The completion of the first maintenance signifies the end of the car's break-in period, allowing the vehicle to be driven under standard load and normal speed as required. The timing for the first maintenance is calculated from the date of vehicle pickup. There are two indicator values for the first maintenance: mileage and time. Whichever comes first will be the standard. First maintenance items include: changing the engine oil and oil filter, cleaning the air filter, checking various fluid levels for normalcy, inspecting the generator belt and wiper blades for damage, checking tire pressure for normalcy, and examining tires for damage or bulges. Required time: Completing all tasks takes approximately 2 hours. The most crucial aspect of a new car's first maintenance is changing the engine oil and oil filter. When changing the oil, the oil filter must also be replaced. The choice of oil must refer to the "Vehicle Usage and Maintenance Manual," as different vehicle models specify different oil grades. Maintenance precautions: Do not rinse the interior of the car body with water: Many people clean their cars during holidays, using water to wash the body and a cloth to scrub. It is important to note that the interior of the car body should not be directly rinsed with water. If the floor mats are dirty, use a vacuum cleaner or take them out to brush and clean with detergent, dry them, and then put them back. There are many perforations under the rubber mats on the cabin floor. Water entering these areas will not dry but will flow through the perforations to components like the gearbox, causing erosion and corrosion. The best practice is to clean with a vacuum and then wipe with a cloth to prevent water accumulation. Do not mix different brands of antifreeze: When the antifreeze in the car is insufficient, it is recommended to drain the antifreeze and add the same brand from the beginning. Different brands of antifreeze have vastly different chemical properties. Various functional additives can corrode others. Different brands of antifreeze use different additives, so they should not be mixed to avoid unnecessary trouble. Do not lubricate tire bolts and nuts: When bolts on a moving car rust, they are often oiled to function properly again. To prevent rust on wheel bolts and nuts, some people apply lubricant, which can introduce unnecessary risks to safe driving. At high speeds, bolts and nuts can loosen or even fall off, leading to driving failures. Do not press the accelerator when starting an EFI car: The starter of an EFI car differs from that of a regular car. Its fuel injection control device can automatically adjust the fuel supply based on the starter's temperature and operating conditions, ensuring a smooth start.
