Engine numbers are assigned by the engine manufacturer, with each digit or letter having its specific meaning. There is no international standard for numbering. Typically, it consists of a combination of 7 to 8 digits and letters. Apart from the above method, the engine number can also be checked in the following 4 ways: The vehicle's driving license prints the engine number, usually located on the second last line; The motor vehicle registration certificate will state the engine number; The car purchase invoice will state the engine number; The vehicle purchase tax payment certificate will state the engine number. It's important to note that the engine number is not the same as the engine model. The engine model refers to the specification and size of the engine within the manufacturer's range, and engine models can be the same. The engine number refers to the production number of the engine, where each engine can only have one unique engine number, and each engine's number is different.

Why does the tire pressure warning light come on when the tires are not flat?

Tire pressure warning light may come on even when the tires are not flat due to reasons such as excessive tire pressure, prolonged driving with low tire pressure, or prolonged periods without inflation leading to decreased pressure. The tire pressure monitoring system does not function in real-time. When an abnormality is detected in the tire, the dashboard will automatically display a warning. The display does not show specific values but indicates which tire has the issue. The working principle of the tire pressure monitoring system is: It uses pressure sensors installed inside the tires to measure the tire pressure and wireless transmitters to send the pressure information from inside the tire to a central receiver module. How to reset the tire pressure warning: There is a tire monitoring indicator button on the center console. After the system issues a low tire pressure warning, the vehicle must remain stationary for about one minute. Do not move the car or turn off and restart the ignition until you press the button to recalibrate the tire monitoring indicator. Find the tire pressure reset option in the settings on the center display. If none of the above works, you will need to visit a 4S shop to reset the tire pressure warning. What to do if the tire pressure is insufficient: If no damage is visible, simply inflate the tire to the normal pressure and reset the tire pressure system. If upon inspection you find that the tire has been punctured, drive to a tire shop immediately to have it repaired and then reinflate it. If the low tire pressure warning comes on again some time after inflating, but there is no puncture, it may be due to air leakage caused by a deformed wheel rim. It is recommended to check the rim and replace it if necessary.

Why does the Sagitar's one-touch window function fail?

Sagitar's one-touch window function failure is caused by the vehicle's body computer losing the data for remote key control of the windows. Below is a detailed introduction to the vehicle's one-touch window function: 1. Usage method: When using, you need to hold down the switch, and release the button when the window reaches the desired position, stopping the lifting process. Cars equipped with one-touch windows have two levels of window control switches. The first button position is the same as that of a regular electric window. The second position means that after pressing and releasing, the window will automatically fully open or close. 2. Function: Generally, mid-to-high-end models are equipped with the one-touch window function, mainly for the convenience of drivers and passengers, to avoid the driver being distracted by operating the windows and to improve safety.

Should You Exit or Continue Driving When Mistakenly Entering a Wrong-Way Lane?

If you mistakenly enter a one-way street, do not continue driving forward. When traffic is light, make a U-turn to return to the correct direction. Otherwise, if you cause a traffic jam on the one-way street, you will bear greater responsibility. If you are caught by an electronic eye while driving the wrong way on a one-way street, you will be penalized with 3 demerit points and a fine. How to prevent wrong-way driving: 1. When driving long distances on highways, plan your route in advance; 2. Update your car navigation or mobile navigation and pay close attention to the voice guidance while driving; 3. If you miss an exit ramp, continue driving to the next exit and turn back—do not make a U-turn, reverse, or drive the wrong way, as it is extremely dangerous; 4. Always watch for road signs and markings while driving, and avoid fatigue driving. If tired, take a break at a service station.
