perseverance also tested the strength of the nerves of the cats of tag, well, our auto expert ivan zinkevich the chinese crossover, and now he will tell you what has changed in the popular model. just the other day, the updated compact crossover geely coolray arrived in russia. we will be one of the first to test it and find out what has changed. it looks like this is not a light facelift, but a fairly serious update. new connected luminous strip taillights, other headlights and a bumper with vertical daytime running lights. air ducts appeared on the hood. the dimensions have grown in length by a significant 5 cm. but the price does not lag behind. now it starts from rub 2,594,990. the cost of the top test version is another 340,000 more. competitors: cherry tiga 4 pro, amada c5, and domestic moskvich. the interior has also been thoroughly refurbished, and there is little resemblance to its predecessors. the media system screen has grown to 12 inches and is now located in the same plane as the instrument panel. the transmission selector received a new shape, despite its compact dimensions, t

been familiar to the russian driver, has modern technology helped to master the old model, knows ivan zinkevichill test the suzuki vitara, but not simple, but hybrid, 8 years have passed since the start of production of the current generation, a considerable period by the standards of the auto industry, but the japanese have added a hybrid power plant to the life cycle of this model, and the appearance still looks relevant. the body is angular, slightly more than 4 m long. the cost of the car is 2.5 million rubles. competitors: cherry tiga 4 pro, kai x3 and hybrid gilly atlas pro, but it is slightly larger. the interior, alas, is old-fashioned; it doesn’t even try to hide the considerable age of the car. media system with modest possibilities. and the small screen is not impressive, the finishing is made of inexpensive materials, but the seating position is comfortable, the ergonomics are well thought out, and the visibility is decent, it’s true that it’s cramped in the back, but you don’t expect a spacious second row from a car of this size, sit down and okay. there is no possibility of rechar

there was such a thing, it wouldn’t fit, why didn’t this amazing car go into mass production, ivan zinkeviche first post-war suv for the village there was gas-69, and the first comfortable all-wheel drive car was niva 2121, but not everything is so simple. today i will talk about the soviet jeep, the development of which began in 1957; there were still more than 15 years left before the appearance of the niva. a miracle was designed for her at the moscow small car plant, so this is a moskvich in front of you, no matter what you think. the first experimental batches with the index 415 were harsh convertibles with awnings, we have a moskvish 416 on test, a metal roof has already appeared here, this is an experimental model, so there are many of them all over the country literally only a few, but they built it from components and assemblies of serial models, so the designers created a universal base for the army and for the countryside, and this is a recess for tanks, there are two of them: an engine from a 407 muscovite, an inline four-cylinder 40. five horses 1,360 cm in the rear a door rathe

and our auto expert ivan zinkevich started a domestic crossover, that is, he checked it, how his newtheir impressions in the report. based on the results of the first half of the year in russia, the most popular passenger car was the lada grante. we've already driven it, but we haven't tried the crossover modification yet. it differs from the regular versions by its increased ground clearance of 198 mm. it gave. appearance crossover posture. the bottom of the body along the perimeter is protected by unpainted plastic, which means that stones flying from under the wheels will not damage the coating. in addition, roof rails are included as standard. price test car - 915,000 rubles. for comparison, vesta cross is one and a half times more expensive, and the chinese liwan x3 pro is two times more expensive. so the recipe for popularity is obvious. the interior is decorated with inexpensive materials, but everything looks neat. for a budget car. the equipment is not bad, two airbags, air conditioning, radio, central locking, heated front seats and windshield , but the seating position is

ivan zinkevich was able to test bilas, well, who would doubt it? there are few of them left, but because of the habitat. these dinosaurs have a specific one, but we found as much as the upper pyshme. meet bilas 7522, one of the smallest dump trucks of the belarusian automobile plant. just 30 tons of soil or minerals can be got a career. our model began to be produced in 1986. valentin sergeevich kobylinsky, a soviet artist-designer from the all -russian scientific research institute, was responsible for its development back in the sixties. research institute of technical aesthetics. it turned out really aesthetically pleasing. loading platform more than 7 m long and 3.5 m high. 15 cubes will fit here. pay attention to where the mufflers go, into the body. they heat it up so that the rock does not freeze. to approach the engine there is a ladder that covers everything hood, more like a steel plate. previously, bilaz had a tank engine, seriously, but now. if i may say so, a simple engine, diesel, four-stroke, displacement 22.3 liters, twelve-cylinder

dilute it somehow, and that you have only white, why do i have red tractors, well , our colleague ivan zinkevichhich one colors, to unfortunately, a couple of centuries ago there was a tradition of sending young people on grand tourism, that is, a long trip around europe, for several months or even... years. in the 20th century, a class of cars with the same name appeared: fast and comfortable, just what you need for long trips. and at the end of the eighties, bmw decided to break into this segment with its new product and compete with metro, mercedes, aston martin and jaguar. you'll say it's too late, but it turned out very loud and expensive. here it is bmw 8 series in the back e31, premium gt coupe. the bavarians allocated one and a half billion for its development. cosmic money at that time, the result was one of the most advanced cars of its time. of course, it couldn’t be cheap, in 1990 they asked for 100 thousand dollars for an eight, which is still a lot today, but back then only a few could afford such a toy. our copy is from 1993. for the sake of aerodynamics, the headlights and even t

they will apparently go around shouting: “vali, our auto expert ivan zinkevich started a domestic crossoverimpressions. will tell the report. according to the results of the first half of the year , the lada became the most popular passenger car in russia granta. we've already ridden it, but we haven't tried cross-country modifications yet. it differs from the regular versions by its increased ground clearance of 198 mm. this gave the look a crossover stance. the bottom of the body along the perimeter is protected by unpainted plastic, which means that stones flying from under the wheels will not damage the coating. besides. the standard equipment includes roof rails, the price of the test car is 915,000 rubles. for comparison: vesta cross is one and a half times more expensive, and the chinese liwan x3 pro is 2 times more expensive, so the recipe for granta’s popularity is obvious. the interior is decorated with inexpensive materials, but everything looks neat. for a budget car, the equipment is not bad, two airbags, air conditioning, radio, central locking, heated front seats and windshie

yes, you won’t run into a fine, ivan zinkevich knows. desire to make your car more spectacular, it’sting to add bumpers, spoilers, and sills to it. outwardly, it can look almost like a sports car, but what in reality, how does it affect the characteristics , is it legal? let's figure it out. most often , owners choose factory branded tuning kits. they are installed in authorized workshops, which means the car will not be void of warranty. since all parts have passed sea tests: the most popular element of the body kit is the sports bumper or the so-called skirt. true, you need to approach such a canopy with your bag, otherwise there is a risk will only make things worse. usually, to prevent loss of tire traction with the road surface, you can use a front splitter, in common parlance a lip, which is installed on the front bumper and deflectors on the front bumper. this will allow the front axle to be more heavily loaded at high speed, which will increase... the car's handling, however , increasing the load on the front end will lead to a decrease in the load on the rear axle, so to ach

now we’ll find out what our auto expert ivan zinkevich was guided by when he reviewed new products inided to move into the premium segment. the new centcury crossover is designed in the spirit of rolls-royce kalina, that is, the main thing in this car is not the driver, but an important passenger. two luxurious seats on the second row are equipped with all kinds of adjustments, massage and footrests. monitors are built into the backs of the front seats. there is also a mini-fridge. the crossover is powered by a hybrid installation with a 3.5 liter naturally aspirated engine and an electric motor. the peak output of the system is 412 horsepower, the batteries can be charged from an outlet, the power reserve is 69 km. lexus centrury is designed for the domestic japanese market. we have this niche with success occupied by aurus commandant. our second hero , hyundai santa fe, is well known in russia. but in the fifth generation, the korean crossover has seriously grown and changed radically in appearance. now it is actually a full-size 4830 mm in length. the chopped square shapes make it

ivan zinkevich will talk about hatchbacks that can give a head start to many sports models.es and specially tuned exhaust sounds. but now the trend is ecology and modern hot hatches have changed a lot. let's find out what the new items in this class are. the mg brand showed the most powerful performance in its entire history. modelchck mg4xpower. its two electric motors have a total output of 435 horsepower. acceleration to hundreds takes just 3.8 seconds. the chassis differs from the regular mg4 with different springs , shock absorbers, stronger brakes and sharper steering. there is also an electronic imitation of cross-axle differential locks. the first deliveries of models to the buyer have just begun. in our salons. you can find the electric hatchback ziker 001, a sports version with the fr prefix was recently introduced in china, and this will be the fastest production car from the middle kingdom. four electric motors produce a total of 1,265 horsepower, and each of them can operate independently. thanks to this , the car fits perfectly into difficult turns and can even

definitely won’t get there in a compact crossover, however, such a car has many other advantages; ivan zinkevichovers in russia today is wider than in any other class; models already known in mary are increasingly visible in traffic; mass motorists are still looking closely at newcomers. let's compare three new compact crossovers officially presented in russia. let's start with the havail m6. it's under the hood. one and a half liter gasoline turbo engine with output of 143 horsepower, front-wheel drive, basic gearbox, six-speed manual, ground clearance 170 mm, the standard list includes a rear view camera, keyless entry, heated front seats, climate control. the price starts from 2,180,000 rubles. chingan unity appeared in showrooms this summer, there is only one engine, a turbocharged gasoline unit with a capacity of one liter and a capacity of 167 horsepower. gearbox, seven-speed robot, front-wheel drive, ground clearance 180 mm, led optics included, parktronic, keyless entry and start system, climate control, multimedia with voice control, recommended price from rub 2,870,000. finally, the x5

ivan zinkevich will talk about new products in this class. than in any other class. models already well-known in mary are increasingly flashing in the traffic; mass motorists are still turning to newcomers. looking closely. let's compare three new compact crossovers officially presented in russia. let's start with haveil m6. under the hood it has a one and a half liter petrol turbo engine with an output of 143 horsepower. the basic gearbox is six-speed manual, ground clearance is 170 mm. the list of standard equipment includes ice-lights, parking sensors plus a rear-view camera, keyless entry, heated front seats, and climate control. the price starts from 2,180,000 rubles. chying unity appeared in showrooms this summer, engine only one turbocharged petrol unit with a volume of 1.5 liters and a capacity of 167 horsepower. the gearbox is a seven-speed robot. front-wheel drive , ground clearance 180 mm, equipped with led optics, parking sensors, keyless entry and start system, climate control, multimedia with voice control, recommended price fro

the evening, the headlight unit, but such lighting devices require serious care, our colleague ivan zinkevichumn twilight and fog , we should be able to see the road well, we should be visible. but is everyone's lighting in order ? after all, a common cause of poor light is cloudy and foggy headlights. condensation forms when after... turning off when the lamps are heated, the pressure inside changes and air begins to be drawn in through the ventilation valves, so condensation inside is a natural process; many manufacturers do not even consider this a defect, especially since the moisture evaporates after switching on. another thing is that if this does not happen, this is no longer normal, we need to look for the reason. otherwise, moisture will destroy the coating of the reflectors, distort the light beam, and you yourself will, without knowing it, blind those you meet. you can contact the service and you can try solve the problem yourself. first of all, let's check the serviceability of the natural ventilation system, remove the breather tube and see if it is clogged. inside the breathers,

i was looking for interesting models in the mid-size crossover segment ivan zinkevich. the number of models in the mid-size crossover segment is gradually growing. today we can already talk about a fairly wide choice, including price. let's compare three such crossovers officially presented on our market. let's start with the hongsy brand, which came to russia this spring. one of the models in the hs5 line. under the hood is a two-liter turbo engine producing 2.18 horsepower. the car accelerates to hundreds in 8.7 seconds. gearbox : six-speed automatic, four-wheel drive. the list of basic equipment includes parking sensors in a circle plus a 360 camera, panoramic sunroof, electrically adjustable driver's seat in twelve directions, wireless charging, dual-zone climate control, surround sound system with twelve speakers, recommended price 4,990,000 rubles. another model appeared in showrooms literally. in early october, this is the jetur x70 plus crossover. under the hood is a 1.6-liter gasoline turbo engine with a capacity of 190 horsepower. acceleration to hundreds in 1

it's time to check the car's cooling system, ivan zinkevich will tell you why.ful engines from 115 to 130°, this is 30-40° more than on engines of previous years , is it any wonder that in such hot conditions it is especially necessary to monitor the cooling system; first of all, it is important to understand that it is not enough just to change the antifreeze on time: the system still needs flushing , the fact is that even high-quality coolant decomposes over time and decomposition products settle on the system elements, so experts recommend flushing the system every 5 years, along with replacing the antifreeze, this is just its average service life. topped up in the summer especially with plain water, not distilled , flushing is also required, and be sure to do it if... oil gets into the cooling system, for example, if the cylinder head gasket is damaged, but that’s not all. flushing is required when the car is not used for a long time, if , for example, the car has been standing for several years, and also in a condition where it is unknown that it is flooded

the help of attentive neighbors, how to find it. electric car, the most interesting model from ivan zinkevichstruggle for customers is beginning to unfold. many manufacturers have seriously taken a course towards ecology and strive to surprise with technical solutions or a power reserve that is constantly growing. let's take a closer look at some of the latest electric sedans: the d7 av from roef. in terms of dimensions, it is in the same class with the toyota camry and kia k5. the traction electric motor on the rear axle has two boost levels of 197-21 horsepower, a range of 510 and 610 km, respectively. located under the hood. quite roomy trunk, two large displays in the cabin, transmission control lever on the steering wheel. to the market the sedan will be released in the fourth quarter of this year. tesla, the recent undisputed favorite of the electric automobile industry , is not going to give up without a fight. the brand has updated its model 3 sedan. restyling affected the front end, bumpers, lights, and trunk lid. the interior is also new and it is as minimalist as possible, there ar

the giant dump trucks and tractors, which you won’t see on the roads; they work in quarries, ivan zinkevich bilas 7522 - one of the smallest dump trucks of the belarusian automobile plant. only 30 tons of soil or minerals can be delivered from the quarry. our model began to be produced in 1986. valentin sergeevich kobylinsky, a soviet artist-designer from the nami all-russian research institute, was responsible for its development back in the sixties institute of technical aesthetics. it turned out really aesthetically pleasing. the loading platform is more than 7 m long and 3.5 m high. 15 cubes will fit here. pay attention to where the mufflers go, into the body. they heat it up so that... the rock doesn't freeze. there is a ladder to access the engine. the hood, more like a steel plate, covers everything. previously, bilaz had a tank engine, seriously. and now, if i may say so, a simple engine, diesel, four-stroke, displacement 22.3 liters, twelve-cylinder, power 360 horse power. the dump truck starts up smoky and noisy, the gearbox is three-stage with a hydraulic drive, there is a hydrau

today ivan zinkevich. will talk about new additions to the compact crossover class.actical option for the city. let's take a closer look at some of the new products in this class. mini cooper introduced the third generation of crossovers. the car has become noticeably larger, its length is 4.4 33 mm, which is a record for the brand. the salon retains its characteristic round display. the basic front-wheel drive version is equipped with a one and a half liter turbo engine producing 170 horsepower. there are all-wheel drive in the lineup more powerful options, output from 218 to 300 horsepower. the gearbox is a seven-speed robot. the electric versions of the countryn ea with 204-313 horsepower stand a little apart. the stated range is up to four. 262 km. the new mini should go on sale in early 2024. the well-known mitsubishi xx crossover has long been in need of a generation change, but contrary to expectations, the japanese presented its more budget version , the x force model. the new product will focus on the southeast asian market. the chassis is as simple as possi

decorate a car correctly so as not to worsen its behavior on the road, and not to run into a fine , ivan zinkevichectacular is understandable, so some owners begin to add bumpers, spoilers, sills to it, in appearance it can almost turn out to be a sports car, but what? in fact, how does this affect the characteristics? is it legal? let's figure it out. most often, owners choose factory branded tuning kits. they are installed in authorized workshops, which means that the car will not fail under warranty, since all parts have passed road tests. the most popular body kit element is a sports bumper or the so-called skirt. true, you need to approach such a canopy with a bag, otherwise there is a risk of making things worse. usually. to prevent loss of tire traction with the road surface, you can use a front splitter, commonly known as a lip, which is installed on the front bumper, and deflectors on the front bumper. this will allow for a stronger load. the front axle at high speed, which will increase the car's handling, however, increasing the load on the front part entails reducing the load on the re

out, was such a thing, it wouldn’t fit, why didn’t this amazing car go into mass production, ivan zinkevich development of which began in 1957, there were still more than 15 years left before the appearance of the niva , a miracle was designed for it at the moscow small car plant, so before you is a moskvich, no matter what you think, the first experimental batches with the index 415 were harsh convertibles with awnings, we tested the moskvizh 416, a metal roof has already appeared here, this is an experimental model, so there are literally only a few of them throughout the country, but they built it from serial assembly units models, so the designers created a universal base for the army and for the village, and this is a recess for tanks, there are two of them: an engine from a 407 muscovite, an in-line four-cylinder 45 horses, 1,360 cm . there is a door at the back, not a side, so it’s more comfortable for passengers, by the way, the spare tire was specially hung on its side so that the door hinges would not be reinforced. behind the bench on the sides, there is a handle for easy landing

our colleague ivan zinkevich will talk about a procedure that frightens many car owners when repairings costly and not always technically possible. but is it really so scary and is there... let's figure it out, there are quite a lot of signs by which you can understand that the engine needs overhaul, you will notice a loss of dynamics, an uncertain start, hear extraneous knocks and most importantly, oil consumption will increase, which is usually evidenced by blue smoke from the exhaust pipe, a diagnostician can confirm low compression indicators in the cylinders, but before making a decision about repairs, it’s better to double-check everything carefully, sometimes it’s enough to fix it... most likely its time has just come, more often it’s natural wear and tear, spoilage such as bearings, connecting rods, cores, piston rings, or parts of the cylinder head, camshafts, valve stem seals, and so on, as the process of resuscitation of a tired engine occurs, at the first stage the engine is dismantled, all components are disassembled and cleaned, then they are searched. that is, the surfac

ivan was looking for interesting models in the mid-size crossover segment zinkevich.dels in the mid-size crossover segment is gradually growing. today we can already talk about a fairly wide choice, including price. let's compare three such crossovers officially presented on our market. let's start with the huunsy brand, which came to russia. this spring, one of the models in the hs5 line has a two-liter turbo engine with a capacity of 218 horsepower under the hood, the car accelerates to hundreds in 8.7 seconds, the gearbox is a six-speed automatic, all-wheel drive. the list of basic equipment includes parktronic in a circle plus a 360 camera, panoramic sunroof, electrically adjustable driver's seat in twelve directions, wireless charging, dual-zone climate control, surround sound system with twelve... recommended price 4,990 rubles. another model appeared in showrooms literally at the beginning of october, this is the crossover jetur x70 plus. a petrol turbo is installed under the hood. the engine has a volume of 1.6 liters and a power of 190 horsepower. acceleratio

year, many... are ok with electrics of the car, the main thing is how to prevent problems, here ivan zinkevich this regard is the electrical system. let's figure out which components are affected first and what can be done for prevention. so, electrical. a car is something like our nervous system; almost all components today are powered and controlled by wires. electrical system of a modern car consists of main components, such as a battery, starter, generator, various control units of vehicle systems, interconnected by electrical wiring. at the same time, there are more than enough harmful factors. in addition to dampness and temperature changes, there is also road dirt, salt and reagents. the symptoms are very easy to notice, for example, if the engine does not start the first time , it runs intermittently and jerks, in this case we go to inspect the high-voltage wires, of course, if the design of the car allows, check if there are any cracks on them, abrasions or other damage, signs of wear are found, you need to change it immediately , and not wait until something closes and the engine doe

and at the same time tested the strength of the cats’ nerves, piglets, well, our auto expert ivan zinkevichwill be one of the first to test it and find out what has changed. it looks like this is not a slight facelift, but a fairly serious update from the new one, connected by a luminous stripe of taillights, different headlights and a bumper with vertical daytime running lights. air has appeared on the hood... the dimensions have grown in length by a significant 5 cm, but the price does not lag behind, now it starts from 2,594,990 rubles. the cost of the top test version is another 340,000 more. competitors: cherry tiga 4 pro, amada c5, as well as domestic moskvich 3. salon it was also thoroughly shoveled, and there is little that resembles its predecessors. the media system screen has grown to 12 inches. and is now located in the same plane with the instrument panel. the transmission selector received a new shape, despite the compact dimensions, the rear row was spacious. but the trunk is small. its volume is average. 330 liters is not for its segment, but an electric drive for the fifth

now, ordinary suvs, also chinese, are still relevant, now about the new products in this class, ivan zinkevichs stuffed with electronics, but there are some really tough machines. let's learn more about the new products in this class. the bioid company presented its new sub-brand fang changba and showed its first model, leopard 5. it is based on a frame structure with an independent rear suspension made of feathers. the ground clearance is adjustable, although there is no pneuma. the car is powered by a hybrid tandem consisting of a 1.5-liter internal combustion engine and two electric motors. total power 680 horsepower. declared maximum. torque as much as 32,000 nm, acceleration to hundreds less than 5 seconds, electric range 125 km, total 1,200. sales start is expected by the end of the year. not long ago , the bg40 suv, assembled at the kaliningrad avtotor, appeared in our showrooms. and in the homeland of the model in china, its second generation has already been presented. the front part has been seriously changed; the removable roof of the past has changed. but the tailgate still consist

but from the good old steam locomotive to the new products of the modern automotive industry, ivan zinkevichhatches have changed a lot. let's find out what the new items in this class are. the mg brand showed the most powerful model in its entire history. electrock mg4xpower. its two electric motors have a total output of 435 horsepower. acceleration to hundreds takes just 3.8 seconds. the chassis differs from the regular mg4 with different springs and dampers, stronger brakes and sharper steering. there is also an electronic imitation of cross-axle differential locks. first deliveries of models the buyer has just begun. in our showrooms you can see the electric hatchback 001; in china they recently introduced its sports version with the fr prefix, and it will be the fastest production car from heaven. four electric motors produce a total of 1,265 horsepower, and each of them can operate independently. thanks to this, the car fits perfectly into difficult turns and can even turn around on the spot. zika reaches the first hundred just 2.3 seconds after... the maximum speed is limited to 280 k

today ivan zinkevich will talk about new additions to the compact crossover class.e same time, buyers often choose compact models as the most practical option for the city. let's take a closer look at some of the new products in this class. mini cooper introduced the third generation of crossovers. the car has become noticeably larger, its length is 4.433 mm, which is a record for the brand. the salon retains its characteristic round display. the basic front-wheel drive version is equipped with a one and a half liter turbo engine producing 170 horsepower. there are all-wheel drive options in the lineup, more powerful, output from 218 to 300 horsepower. the gearbox is a seven-speed robot. they stand a little apart at 204-313 horsepower, a stated range of up to 462 km, the new mini should go on sale in early 2024. the well-known mitsubi xx crossover has long been in need of a generation change, but contrary to expectations, the japanese presented its more budget version, the x force model. the new product will focus on the southeast asian market. the chassis is maxima

russian drivers have long been familiar with the japanese crossover ivan zinkevich, small but advancedart of production of the current generation vitera, a considerable period by the standards of the auto industry, however the japanese extended the life cycle of this model by adding a hybrid power plant. yes , the appearance still looks relevant. the body is angular, slightly more than 4 m long. the cost of the car is 2.5 million rubles. this is one of the most affordable hybrid crossovers on our market. competitors: cherry tiga 4 pro, kaix3 and hybrid gilly atlas pro, but it is slightly larger. the interior is unfortunately old-fashioned; it doesn’t even try to hide the car’s considerable age. media systems with a modest. capabilities and small screen are not impressive, the finishing is made of inexpensive materials, but the seating position is comfortable, the ergonomics are well thought out, and the visibility is decent, it’s true that it’s cramped in the back , but you wouldn’t expect a spacious second row from a car of this size, sat down and okay, there’s no possibility of recha

evening , the headlight block, but such lighting devices require serious care, our colleague ivan zinkevich road well, we should be visible. but are all lighting devices in order, because a common cause of poor light is dim and foggy headlights. condensation forms when, after turning off the heated lamps , the pressure inside changes and air begins to be drawn in through the ventilation valves, so that condensation inside is a natural process; many manufacturers do not even consider this a defect, especially since after switching on, the moisture evaporates. another thing is that if this does not happen, this is no longer normal, we need to look for the reason. otherwise, moisture will destroy the coating of the reflectors, distort the light beam, and you yourself will, without knowing it, be blinded by the oncoming light. you can contact the service, or you can try to solve the problem yourself. first of all, let's check the serviceability of the system. natural ventilation, remove the tube breather, let's see if it's clogged, inside the breathers, on some headlight models there is a dust

our colleague ivan zinkevich will talk about a procedure that scares many car owners, like repairingence for many. indeed, the procedure is expensive and not always technically possible. but is it really so scary and is there an alternative? let's figure it out. signs by which you can understand that the engine needs major repairs. quite a lot, you will notice a loss of dynamics, an uncertain start, hear extraneous knocks, and most importantly oil consumption will increase, which is usually indicated by blue smoke from the exhaust pipe. low compression readings in the cylinders can confirm the diagnosis. but before deciding on a major overhaul, it is better to double-check everything carefully. sometimes it is enough to fix problems in the fuel system, or for example, in the ignition system. although, if your engine has gone through more. 2000 km most likely it’s just his time. more often this is natural wear and tear, such as bearings, connecting rod rods and piston rings , or parts of the cylinder head, camshafts, valve stem seals and so on. how the process of resuscitation of a ti

ivan zinkevich will introduce us to one of the newcomers.e, the length of the body exceeds 5. the traditional shape, but the optics are unusual, both in the front and in the rear, one continuous stripe across the entire width, the price of the test seven in the maximum configuration is 8,300,000 rubles. competitors: voie free, link and co-09, xpeng g9. you sit in the salon and it’s like you’re in the future. there is no instrument panel here; the projector displays all data on the windshield. there are two large touch screens on the front panel. but there is no russification yet, the manufacturer is about to promise it, absolutely all functions via the monitor. 11 cameras around the perimeter paint a detailed picture of the surrounding reality on the display. the second row is spacious, at the service of passengers, a climate control control unit, as well as a footrest, one press and the backs of all seats folded to form a semblance of a berth . the lee brand specializes in hybrid powertrains, and it’s the same here. the car is driven by two
