The radiator drain valve on the Nissan Qashqai is located at the bottom of the radiator. The procedure for replacing the water and coolant in the radiator of the new Nissan Qashqai is as follows: 1. With the car engine cooled down, unscrew the radiator cap and open the radiator drain valve (located at the bottom of the radiator) to drain the coolant. 2. Insert a rubber hose connected to a tap into the radiator filler port, turn on the tap, and allow tap water to flow continuously through the engine cooling system. During this flushing process, keep the engine idling and continue the operation until clean water flows out of the radiator. 3. Turn off the tap and close the radiator drain valve once the cooling system is completely drained. 4. Add coolant to the radiator through the filler port until it is full. Unscrew the reservoir cap, add coolant up to the 'Max' mark, being careful not to exceed it. 5. Replace and tighten both the radiator cap and the reservoir cap. 6. Start the engine and let it idle for 2-3 minutes, then unscrew the radiator cap. As some air is expelled from the cooling system, the coolant level will drop; top up the coolant to the 'Max' mark again. 7. Finally, securely fasten the radiator cap.

What are the reasons for ETC alarm?

ETC alarm may occur due to the following reasons: The newly arrived device has not yet been activated. It is normal for the device to beep when driving on the highway, but continuous beeping indicates an abnormality in the mailed device. The newly arrived device may have low battery due to shipping and storage time. If the solar panel is installed under a dark film, it may not be able to store electricity. If the anti-tamper button is pressed and released during installation, it may cause the device to beep. During the first installation of the ETC device, the sensor position on the glass may not be pressed firmly enough. ETC installation process: Upon receiving the device, first check if the ETC card and the electronic tag (OBU) are damaged. Press the anti-tamper button on the back of the OBU. The red light will briefly turn on, and the OLED screen will display "Tag Invalid" or "Please Insert Card," indicating the device is functioning normally. Clean the front windshield to ensure the surface is smooth, clean, and dry. Then, peel off the protective film on the back of the OBU and stick it to the installation position. Press firmly for 2-3 minutes to remove any air bubbles. Insert the ETC card with the front facing the driver and the back facing the windshield, ensuring the chip is inserted into the OBU device.

What does exam appointment location failure mean?

The reasons for exam appointment location failure are as follows: 1. May not meet the ministry's time limit requirements. 2. Too many applicants for a single test site. When the number of applicants for a single exam exceeds the planned number of examinees, students ranked lower will fail to make an appointment. 3. Too many exam sessions applied for. Students can apply for up to five exam sessions simultaneously for a single test, but may only successfully schedule one, with the system indicating failure for the other four sessions. Relevant information about the driver's license exam is as follows: 1. Introduction: The driver's test is a qualification examination organized by the Vehicle Management Office of the Public Security Bureau. Only by passing the driver's test can one obtain a driver's license and legally operate motor vehicles. 2. Content: The motor vehicle driver's test content is divided into the road traffic safety laws, regulations, and related knowledge test subject (also known as the "theoretical test", referred to as "Subject 1"), the site driving skills test subject (commonly known as the "pole test", referred to as "Subject 2"), and the road driving skills and safe civilized driving common sense test subject (commonly known as the "road test", referred to as "Subject 3"). The test content and passing standards are uniform nationwide, with corresponding test items specified according to different permitted driving vehicle types.

Can maintenance records be checked if not serviced at a 4S shop?

If the vehicle is not serviced at a 4S shop, the maintenance records cannot be checked. Here are some precautions regarding vehicle maintenance: 1. Regularly clean body stains: The paint surface of the vehicle body will deteriorate over time if continuously exposed to stains, leading to dullness and reduced glossiness. Therefore, it is necessary to protect the paint surface by regularly cleaning the body to maintain its cleanliness. 2. Regularly change the engine oil: Engine oil has a limited service life. It is important to replace the vehicle's engine oil periodically, as prolonged use causes the oil to become increasingly turbid, which can damage the car's engine. Hence, special attention must be paid to engine oil maintenance during servicing.

What does 96Y mean on a tire?

96Y refers to the maximum load capacity and speed rating of the tire. 96 indicates that each tire can bear a maximum load of 710kg, so four tires can support 2840kg in total. Y represents a maximum speed of 300km/h. These are common indicators for maximum load and speed ratings. Functions of tires installed on vehicles: 1. Load-bearing capacity: Supporting the weight of the vehicle and its cargo, known as load-bearing capacity. 2. Dynamic performance: Transmitting forces such as braking, traction, acceleration, steering, and braking to the ground, including driving force, traction force, braking force, and steering force. This is referred to as meeting the dynamic performance requirements of the vehicle, enabling its operation. 3. Safety: Ensuring the vehicle can be driven smoothly, stably, and safely under various weather, road, and speed conditions, known as safety performance.

Can Small-Displacement Vehicles Drive on the Grassland Sky Road?

Small-displacement vehicles can drive on the Grassland Sky Road. Here are some precautions for driving: 1. Vehicle inspection before departure: Conduct a comprehensive check of the vehicle every day before setting off, including checking for oil or water leaks; measure tire pressure to ensure it is appropriate; inspect the engine oil condition; check if the spare tire is intact, etc. 2. Be cautious when wading: If encountering waterlogged roads, be aware of the water depth and the condition of the road beneath before deciding whether it exceeds the vehicle's capability. Avoid attempting to wade through water deeper than half the height of the car's tires. 3. Obey traffic rules: Especially on highways, do not speed. Speeding not only risks fines from traffic police but, more importantly, is unsafe.

What is the difference between 1.5L and 2.0L displacement?

1.5L and 2.0L displacement differ in the following aspects: A 2.0L engine has a larger exhaust volume than a 1.5L vehicle. The power output of a 2.0L displacement engine is greater than that of a 1.5L displacement engine. Related explanations: 1. Introduction: Displacement (Swept-volume), a specialized term in hydraulic transmission, refers to the volume of fluid inhaled or discharged per stroke or cycle. Generally, a larger displacement means the engine releases more energy (converting chemical energy from fuel into mechanical energy) per unit time, resulting in better "power performance". 2. Extension: The displacement range for compact cars is typically 1.0L-1.6L, while mid-size cars usually have displacements between 1.6L-2.5L. The fuel consumption of a 2.0L displacement engine is generally higher than that of a 1.5L displacement engine.
