The thermostat on the Cruze is located at the water outlet on the upper part of the engine cooling system. The working principle of the thermostat is that when the cooling temperature is below the specified value, the refined wax inside the thermostat's temperature-sensitive body remains in a solid state. The thermostat valve, under the action of the spring, closes the channel between the engine and the radiator, causing the coolant to return to the engine via the water pump, creating a small circulation within the engine. The dimensions of the Cruze are 4666mm in length, 1807mm in width, and 1460mm in height, with a wheelbase of 2700mm. In terms of the powertrain, the 2018 Cruze is equipped with a 1.5L naturally aspirated engine and a 1.4T turbocharged engine. The 1.5L engine is paired with either a 6-speed manual transmission or a 6-speed automatic transmission, while the 1.4T engine is matched with a 7-speed dual-clutch transmission.

What does 95y tire mean?

95 is the load index of the tire, and 95 corresponds to a maximum load of 690KG per tire. Y represents the speed rating of the tire, which indicates the maximum speed the tire can carry the specified load under specified conditions, with Y having a top speed of 300 kilometers per hour. Here is some additional information: 1. Function: The tire is one of the most important components of a car, primarily supporting the vehicle's entire weight and bearing the car's load; transmitting traction and braking torque to ensure adhesion between the wheel and the road; reducing and absorbing vibrations and impacts during driving, preventing severe vibrations and early damage to car components, adapting to the vehicle's high-speed performance, reducing driving noise, and ensuring safety, handling stability, comfort, and energy efficiency. 2. Composition: Tires are usually composed of three parts: the outer tire, inner tube, and flap. Some do not require an inner tube, as the inner layer of the tire body has a rubber layer with excellent airtightness and requires specialized rims. The structure of tires worldwide is evolving towards tubeless, radial construction, flat (small ratio of tire section height to width), and lightweight designs.

Does car glass protect against UV rays?

Automotive glass generally has UV protection functionality, which can reduce the harm caused by UV rays to the skin and has the ability to block UV transmission. Higher-end glass may also feature noise reduction, heat insulation, and thermal insulation properties. Modern car glass incorporates many advanced designs with multiple functions, demonstrating sophisticated and thoughtful engineering. Below is relevant information: UV rays: UV radiation is a dangerous sunlight hazard. With its relatively long wavelength and strong penetrating ability, it can pass through the skin's surface layer and reach subcutaneous tissues, damaging collagen, elastic fiber structures, and other fine skin tissues, leading to wrinkles and fine lines, causing skin laxity and aging. This is medically termed photoaging. UV protection glass functions: Filters sunlight, reduces UV damage to the skin, and has the ability to prevent (reflect or absorb) UV penetration. It provides thermal insulation inside the vehicle, ensures air conditioning efficiency, and minimizes the impact of external temperature or light on the interior climate. In fact, most ordinary glass has some degree of UV absorption capability.

Why are all the warning lights on and the car won't start?

Possible reasons for all warning lights being on and the car not starting include: insufficient fuel pressure; incorrect throttle position sensor signal; malfunctioning fuel pump; faulty spark plugs. Below is an extended explanation: Other reasons: Apart from improper operation by the driver, if all dashboard warning lights are on and the car won't start, it could also be due to starter motor failure, fuel pump supply issues, injector problems, or sensor malfunctions. These more complex situations require professional handling. Precautions: Fuel quality issues. Upon inspection, water and mud were found in the fuel tank. Using such contaminated fuel will inevitably damage the car. Therefore, it is advised that owners must refuel at reputable gas stations. When traveling, a gauze can be placed over the fuel nozzle to filter out impurities. Lack of antifreeze. Some owners use water or low-quality antifreeze, resulting in the entire cooling system freezing in extremely cold winter conditions, leading to engine block cracks, inoperable water pumps, failure to start, and damage to other engine components.
