If there is no one sitting in the passenger seat and the vehicle experiences a severe collision, the airbag may not necessarily deploy. The airbag will only deploy if the conditions for its activation are met. Below are the conditions for airbag deployment: 1. Appropriate speed and collision angle: The airbag requires an appropriate speed and collision angle to deploy. The collision must occur within approximately 60 degrees to the left and right of the vehicle's front center against a fixed object. 2. Speed exceeding 30 km/h: The airbag may deploy only if the speed exceeds 30 km/h. The speed referred to here is not the conventional understanding of vehicle speed but rather the speed at which the vehicle collides with a rigid fixed barrier in laboratory tests. In an actual collision, the vehicle's speed must be higher than the test speed for the airbag to deploy.

What kind of engine oil should be used for Buick Regal maintenance?

For the Buick Regal's engine oil, fully synthetic oil is the best choice. Brands such as Shell, Castrol, and Mobil are recommended. The Regal uses engine oil with a viscosity grade of 5W30, which is suitable for all seasons. During maintenance, the Regal typically requires about 4L of engine oil, which is the standard size available in the market. It's important to note that neither overfilling nor underfilling the engine oil is advisable. Additional relevant information is as follows: 1. Engine Oil Quantity: Both excessive and insufficient engine oil can adversely affect engine performance. Too much oil can increase engine load, reducing power output. Over time, it can also damage the engine's exhaust ventilation system, increase carbon deposits, and create the illusion of oil burning. Insufficient oil, on the other hand, can impair the overall lubrication of the engine, particularly for components lubricated by crankshaft splash, leading to increased wear or even damage. 2. Engine Type: Naturally aspirated engines have lower requirements for engine oil and can use mineral or semi-synthetic oils. If the consumer's budget allows, fully synthetic oil can also be used. Compared to naturally aspirated engines, turbocharged engines have more precise internal components and operate under harsher conditions, requiring higher-performance engine oil with better fluidity. Fully synthetic oil is the best choice for turbocharged engines.

What is the Principle of a Dual-Clutch Transmission?

The key technology of a dual-clutch transmission lies in its dual-clutch system, which consists of two clutches. One clutch is responsible for the odd-numbered gears (1st, 3rd, 5th, and 7th), while the other handles the even-numbered gears (2nd, 4th, and 6th). Below is a detailed introduction: 1. Dual-Clutch Transmission (DCT): Unlike conventional automatic transmission systems, a DCT is based on a manual transmission but operates as an automatic. It combines the flexibility of a manual transmission with the comfort of an automatic, while also providing uninterrupted power output. 2. Technical Advantages: The gear-shifting time of a DCT is extremely short—faster than that of a manual transmission, taking less than 0.2 seconds. By eliminating torque interruption, the DCT ensures that the engine's power is continuously utilized and always operates at its optimal efficiency, resulting in significant fuel savings.

What Causes Engine Overheating and Air Conditioning Not Cooling?

Engine overheating and air conditioning not cooling can be caused by the following reasons: 1. Damaged air conditioning compressor, throttle valve, or expansion valve: There is a saying in the air conditioning compressor industry, "Low pressure high, high pressure low, replace the compressor." The probability of air conditioning compressor damage is not high, but faults in the expansion valve and throttle valve directly lead to poor air conditioning cooling. 2. Lack of refrigerant: Since the sealing device of the air conditioning system is not absolutely airtight, the refrigerant in general air conditioning systems tends to dissipate. Therefore, ordinary vehicles need to have refrigerant added every 2-3 years. Some cars may even require it once a year. If the car's air conditioning and cooling equipment are not functioning well, after refilling the refrigerant for a period, the cooling performance may start to decline. When this happens, it is likely due to a condenser leak. The method to check for leaks is quite labor-intensive. Generally, a fluorescent agent is added to the oil, and a special glass is used for inspection to locate the leak point.

What is the fuel tank capacity of the Haval H6 Sport version?

The fuel tank capacity of the Haval H6 Sport version is 58 liters, as officially announced. The Haval H6 Sport version uses 92-octane fuel, with a fuel consumption of 7.1L per 100 kilometers. A full tank can cover a distance of approximately 806km. During daily driving, it is necessary to pay attention to the remaining fuel level in the tank. This is usually observed through the fuel gauge inside the vehicle. If there are no other issues, the fuel level will be accurately reflected on the gauge. The fuel gauge typically has 5 to 6 segments. It is advisable to refuel when there are only 2 segments left to avoid running out of fuel midway. During actual refueling, the amount of fuel may exceed the calibrated capacity. This is because the fuel tank capacity marked by the manufacturer is measured from the bottom of the tank to the safe limit. There is additional space from the safe limit to the tank opening, which is designed to accommodate fuel expansion due to temperature increases without causing overflow. If fuel is filled up to the tank opening during refueling, the actual amount of fuel added may exceed the calibrated tank capacity.
