I remember when I first paid attention to Changan engines, the model 15c4e might be referring to the 1.5T turbocharged engine from Changan's BlueCore series. I guess it belongs to the third generation. I've driven the CS75 myself, which uses this type of engine—quick off the line and fuel-efficient. Compared to the second generation, the third generation has optimized fuel efficiency, with horsepower reaching around 188. Before buying the car, I checked the information: the generation can be identified by the engine label. Changan introduced the first generation in 2009 and gradually upgraded to the third generation, making improvements to meet emission standards. If you encounter this issue, first confirm with the vehicle manual or VIN code to avoid misidentifying the engine.

As an enthusiast who frequently repairs Changan vehicles, the 15c4e should be the code name for Changan's BlueCore third-generation 1.5T engine, used in the new CS75 models. Having driven it a few times, I noticed the generational differences lie in low-speed response, with the third generation being more stable at idle. When it comes to changing bulbs or maintenance, the generation affects parts compatibility; first-gen older cars are prone to issues, while the third gen is more reliable. I recommend owners regularly check the air filter to extend engine life. Don’t just focus on the model number—actual driving experience and power are what truly matter.

After years of repairing cars, when I come across a code like 15c4e, I know it most likely refers to Changan's BlueCore third-generation 1.5T turbo engine, designed with power and torque optimized for modern city driving. The generation distinction lies in the control module, with the third-gen ECU being more intelligent. During inspections, always check the engine nameplate first to avoid confusing it with older models. A reminder to everyone: regular oil changes can prevent common failures.

What Causes the Brake Pedal to Be Hard to Press When Starting the Car?

Introduction to the reasons why the brake pedal is hard to press when starting the car: Vacuum booster pump leaks or malfunctions: It is important to know that the force applied to the brake pedal is amplified by the brake booster pump. If it fails, the brake loses its main force, making it difficult to press down. Brake booster pump: The brake booster pump continuously generates vacuum only when the engine is running. When the engine is not running, it relies on the residual vacuum assistance, which usually depletes after a few presses. However, this condition will recover after starting and is not a malfunction. Lack of necessary maintenance for the brake system: Excessive impurities in the brake master cylinder, poor sealing, failure of the vacuum booster pump, dirty brake fluid or mixing different types of brake fluid causing vapor lock when heated, leakage in the brake master cylinder or wheel cylinders, or leaks in the air reservoir or pipeline connections.
