If I leave my car unused for three days, the battery dies. How long can your cars sit without losing charge? I'm thinking of getting an emergency jump starter. Could you recommend a good brand? Thanks!

Even if you remove the anti-theft fuse for one or two months, it can still start.

I'm on a business trip for a month, no worries! [Yay]

Replace the battery.

If you're not using it, I suggest disconnecting the battery cable.

Find a mechanic to check if there are any issues with the battery and the motor.

Change the battery. It's a hassle and costs more money. That thing isn't cheap either.

The tire loses air slowly, needing to refill every three to four days, but the tire isn't damaged. What could be the reason?

I have an HS7 at home. I'm considering buying a new energy SUV. I don't go out often, but when I do, it's usually a long trip (at least 2 hours). My friends have recommended brands like Li Auto, NIO, and AITO, but I'm thinking about the HS9. However, I've heard it doesn't have a good reputation. I'm here to seek advice on the following aspects and would appreciate genuine feedback and evaluations: charging speed, charging pile installation, material quality, human-vehicle interaction, intelligence, maintenance, and actual range. Thank you, everyone.

Here’s the situation: I just replaced the battery, but it's dead again. After starting the car, after a while, it reports a battery charging fault. Then the ABS and airbag lights also come on. When idling in place, after a while, the car will automatically shut off. When driving, it feels like it doesn't shift gears automatically, and I can't switch to manual mode either. Vehicle: Peugeot 207 1.6 Automatic. The battery wasn't great initially, and I didn't pay much attention to it, usually jump-starting the car. A few days ago, I replaced the battery. First, during driving, it started showing a battery charging fault. After a while, the ABS light came on, then the airbag light lit up as well. It's like a parade of warning lights. Now I'm wondering if it's worth repairing. What could be the issues?

How's your car battery? Mine won't start after sitting for three days. Any advice?

Hi everyone, I've been having issues with my Hongqi H7 where the side mirrors often don't fold when I lock the car and the seat adjustment occasionally fails too. I noticed these problems tend to occur together. I had the wiring checked and charged the battery, which fixed it for a while, but then it started happening again. I thought it might be the battery losing charge, so I replaced it. It was fine at first, but then the problems came back. The mirrors fold manually without any issues inside the car; it's just when I lock the car that they don't fold, and the seat adjustment also fails!

Is it normal for a car to lose its battery charge after being parked for a few days?? Please share your thoughts.

I need some guidance from the experts. I'm new to cars and currently, my family doesn't own one. My husband works nearby, but I commute 40 kilometers to the suburbs for work every day. We live in an old neighborhood without home charging facilities, and I'm thinking of buying a new energy vehicle. I've had my license for six years but haven't driven much. I liked the appearance of the Zeekr X but heard the rear space is small. Personally, I like Zeekr and Ora, and I'm also considering Deepal. I'm really confused and don't know which car to buy. Any advice from the experts would be appreciated.

There's a bug in the fuel consumption mileage stats of the Nissan X-Trail EP, which causes it to reset automatically. This has happened a few times, and each time all the data on the "Since Last Refuel" page gets cleared. I'm not sure if it's a bug. It's still hard to pinpoint the exact conditions for the issue to reoccur, but I can confirm it should include the following: 1. Long periods of idling without turning off the engine 2. Unlocking the car doors 3. Leaving the car with the key (out of sensing range) Then, when you return, you'll find the data has reset. This has happened three times, and looking back, it was pretty much under these circumstances.

After 8 years with my old petrol car, it started burning oil, and I noticed a lot of people around me were switching to electric vehicles. That got me thinking. I was originally planning to get the top-spec Tank 300 (Menglong), and during the National Day holiday I went for a test drive — it met my expectations.On the way back, I stopped by a Jetour dealership and saw the T2. My daughter instantly fell in love with the exterior and interior — it completely overshadowed the Menglong in her eyes. Looks clearly played a big role, and after a test drive, it felt good enough. Since I don’t really need 4WD for daily driving, I booked it right away. Looking back now, I do wish I had waited for the 4WD version — a bit more power would’ve been nice.For this type of vehicle, electric power saves a lot. For daily use, my cost is just around 0.10 AED/km (charging at home on off-peak rates of 3.3 AED/kWh). My daily round-trip to work is under 20 km, so I only charge every four days, when the battery hits around 20%.For long-distance trips, I don’t bother with charging — it’s too much hassle. I just set the car to preserve 60% battery and drive on petrol. Even if fuel consumption is slightly higher, it’s fine since I only do a few road trips per year.The car is heavy and feels solid on the road. Acceleration is decent, but the 4WD version definitely would’ve offered better power and confidence. I’ve had the car for over half a year now. So far, the only issue has been a slight noise from the steering system — which was fixed. Other than that, no major problems. Buying a car always involves a bit of luck anyway.The biggest downside is the driver assistance system — it lags behind the competition. The infotainment system has improved a bit with the latest 4.11 update, but it still has room for improvement.Overall, I’m quite satisfied. Compared to many newer EV startups, Chery is an established brand. The lifetime warranty adds a lot of peace of mind, especially on the powertrain and electric components.
