The jack of the Ford Transit van is located at the left front door step. How to use the jack: First, park the vehicle on a flat and solid surface, engage the handbrake, locate the reserved jack support point on the vehicle chassis, and place the jack directly below the support point. Use the jack handle to rotate the jack screw clockwise. When the jack is about to contact the vehicle support point, confirm whether the jack is correctly aligned with the support point. After confirming, continue rotating the screw, and the jack will lift the vehicle. Types of jacks: Automotive jacks include pneumatic jacks, electric jacks, hydraulic jacks, and mechanical jacks. Hydraulic and mechanical jacks are commonly used.

How to Dispose of Scrapped Vehicles?

For vehicles with expired annual inspections that meet the scrapping conditions, after clearing all traffic violations, the scrapping procedures can be directly processed. Below is a detailed introduction to the disposal of vehicles that have reached their scrapping deadline: 1. Scrapping conditions: Light and mini trucks (including off-road types) and mining operation vehicles with a cumulative mileage of 300,000 kilometers; heavy and medium trucks (including off-road types) with a cumulative mileage of 400,000 kilometers; extra-large, large, medium, light, and mini buses (including off-road types) and sedans with a cumulative mileage of 500,000 kilometers; other vehicles with a cumulative mileage of 450,000 kilometers. 2. Other conditions: Additionally, vehicles that are severely damaged or in poor technical condition due to various reasons and cannot be repaired; models that have been phased out with no available parts; vehicles that, after long-term use, exceed the national standard fuel consumption by 15%; and those that still fail to meet the national technical safety requirements for motor vehicle operation after repairs and adjustments.

What Causes Steering Wheel Vibration at Speeds Above 130 km/h?

Tire dynamic imbalance, significant differences in tire pressure among the four tires, and poor four-wheel alignment can cause steering wheel vibration at speeds above 130 km/h. Tire Dynamic Imbalance: If a tire experiences a strong localized impact during driving, it can cause the balance weights to fall off or become damaged, thereby affecting the tire's dynamic balance. Significant Differences in Tire Pressure Among the Four Tires: When there is a significant difference in tire pressure among the four tires, especially between the left and right wheels, the car will experience noticeable body jolts and steering wheel vibration during high-speed driving. Poor Four-Wheel Alignment: When the four-wheel alignment has a large deviation angle, the car may exhibit phenomena such as body drift and vibration during high-speed driving. It can also lead to uneven tire wear, accelerating tire wear and shortening the tire's service life. Solutions for Steering Wheel Vibration at Speeds Above 130 km/h: When the car experiences steering wheel vibration at high speeds, the first step is to check and adjust the tire pressure. Then, perform a dynamic balance check on all four tires, and finally, conduct a four-wheel alignment.

What is the normal turbo boost pressure?

For ordinary family cars, the normal turbo boost pressure ranges between 1.2bar and 1.5bar. The maintenance methods for turbocharged engines are as follows: 1. Use high-grade synthetic oil: Since the combustion temperature and working pressure inside a turbocharged engine are significantly higher than those of a naturally aspirated engine during operation, turbocharged engines have higher requirements for lubrication and cooling. To ensure normal engine operation under more demanding working conditions, conventional mineral oil can no longer meet the requirements, and synthetic oil with better lubrication and cleaning capabilities must be used. Synthetic oil far surpasses mineral oil in terms of lubrication, cleaning, and anti-friction capabilities, and it also forms a lubricating film quickly, with high strength and good stability. Therefore, turbocharged models must use synthetic oil, preferably full synthetic oil. 2. Direct injection engines require the use of fuel injector cleaner: Direct injection sprays fuel directly into the cylinder, where it mixes with air. The ECU can precisely control the amount and timing of fuel injection based on the amount of air intake, ensuring that the air-fuel mixture burns more completely, thereby reducing fuel consumption and improving engine performance. However, because the fuel injectors in direct injection engines are placed directly inside the cylinders, they are prone to gum and carbon deposits. It is generally recommended to regularly add fuel injector cleaner to gasoline to clean the injectors. If the gum and carbon deposits on the injectors are severe, they need to be removed for cleaning. 3. Regular inspection: Due to the numerous components in a turbocharged engine, it is important to frequently check for unusual noises or vibrations in the turbocharger, and to inspect the lubrication pipes and joints for leaks. Check whether there is residual oil at the turbocharger exhaust outlet or oil on the walls of the compressor intake pipe. Oil consumption in turbocharged engines is not a common issue, but as a precaution, it is recommended that owners regularly pull out the engine oil dipstick to check oil consumption and ensure the oil level is within the normal range. If visible oil consumption is detected, it is best to visit a repair station for inspection as soon as possible.

Where are the A-pillar, B-pillar, and C-pillar of a car located?

A sedan body has three pillars, from front to back, they are the front pillar (A-pillar), middle pillar (B-pillar), and rear pillar (C-pillar). For sedans, these pillars not only provide structural support but also serve as door frames. The details are as follows: 1. A-pillar: The pillar between the front windshield and the left front door, which can obstruct the view when turning left. 2. B-pillar: The pillar located between the front door and the rear door. 3. C-pillar: The pillars on either side of the rear windshield. Additional information: 1. Front blind spot: The area in front of the car that is not visible from the hood, commonly known as the front blind spot. Several factors contribute to the front blind spot, including the height of the car body and seats, the length of the front end, and the driver's physique. 2. Rear blind spot: The blind spot behind the vehicle, commonly known as the rear blind spot, refers to an area of approximately 30 degrees extending outward from the rear door that is outside the view of the side mirrors. When the front of a following car is near the rear door of the leading car, the following car cannot be seen in the leading car's mirrors, making it prone to sideswipes and rear-end collisions.

How to Check the Production Date on a Seat Belt?

There are two places where you can find the production date of a car seat belt: one is in the car manual, and the other is at the end of the seat belt. Below are detailed explanations on how to check the production dates of car seat belts and some other car parts: 1. How to check the production date of a car seat belt: (1) Car manual: In the car manual, you can find information such as the safety inspection qualification mark, manufacturer, production date, and labor safety protection product license of the seat belt. (2) End of the seat belt: There is a label at the end of the seat belt, which includes details like the car brand logo, QR code, seat belt production date, and seat belt code. 2. How to check the production dates of other car parts: (1) Engine production date: The engine production date is usually on the engine's nameplate and can also be seen in the engine number. (2) Car glass production date: The production date of car glass is marked on the glass itself. Some models use the number of black dots to indicate the production week. (3) Tire production date: The production date of a tire is on the side of the tire, specifying the week of the month it was produced. (4) Headlight production date: The production date of car headlights is on the label inside the headlight. It is normal for the two headlights to have different production dates.
