The car stopped in the middle of the road, with 25,000 km mileage. Couldn't shift gears, and the clutch felt heavy. Surprisingly, it was fine the next day. Decided to replace the clutch slave cylinder for 240 RMB. 🤷‍♂️

If you're deciding between the MG ZS and MG HS in Europe, here are some considerations: MG ZS comes with a 1.0T engine and a 6-speed automatic transmission. However, it's a three-cylinder engine. On the other hand, the MG HS features a 1.5T engine with a dry dual-clutch transmission and is a four-cylinder. There are reports online that the MG HS might experience significant jerking issues after a year or two due to the dry dual-clutch transmission. You might want to weigh the pros and cons of each engine and transmission type based on your driving preferences and needs.

Guys, need some help. My Hongqi EHS9 460 Flag Enjoy suddenly has a dead battery today, but it was running fine yesterday. Jump-started it and went to the dealership for a full day check, but they couldn't find the problem. Has anyone experienced something similar? Any advice?

My relative gave me a 2006 Peugeot automatic 1.6L 307. A few days ago, it was running low on fuel (almost to the red line), and the range showed there were 60km left. Suddenly, it made a "ka" sound and everything stopped, showing something about "gearbox." After turning it off and restarting, it was fine, and adding fuel prevented the issue from happening again. Should I get it checked? The mileage was over 60,000 when I got it, and now it's at 88,000. Seeking advice from the forum experts.

Seeking advice for my first car (also just starting to drive). Budget around 400,000 RMB. Should I choose the Genesis with options or the new BMW 5 Series? I'm almost 35 and might have a child in the next 1-2 years. I feel like the Genesis doesn't have enough rear space, but I'm really attracted to its looks. The new 5 Series is quite controversial, but recently it's had significant price cuts, so I can afford the top trim, and it holds its value better. Could you guys help me decide?

The car was fine when I parked it, but the next day when I started it, the engine fault yellow light came on. The car runs fine, but the yellow light stays on. It's been almost two years; does anyone know the reason? 😢

Hi fellow car enthusiasts, I have a 1.6 CVT that's been running for ten years with over 60,000 kilometers. Last month, I just did maintenance, changed the transmission fluid and spark plugs. It was running fine for the first few days, but recently it's been jerking occasionally when I lightly press the accelerator. It's similar to a manual car when you give gas without fully releasing the clutch. The engine goes "woo-woo-woo," and the whole car shakes a bit, but the speed doesn’t increase. Then, when I press the accelerator harder, it goes back to normal. Does anyone know what might be happening?

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.

I was looking for a good sedan, and I went through the usual headache of choices like anyone else. I looked at the Sentra and the Civic—each had something I liked, but also something that made me hesitant. The Sentra felt a bit too quiet for me—I’m still young—and while the Civic was tempting, I just couldn't fully buy into it. I randomly walked into a Toyota showroom, and right there in front of me was the Corolla. I took it for a test drive, and honestly, the sales team was incredibly polite and respectful—unlike the staff I’d dealt with at other dealerships. In the end, I was convinced and bought the hybrid Corolla. After a year of use, the car has been comfortable and smooth to drive, with no major issues. But it’s not without its annoyances—like the sluggish, outdated screen and the old-school head unit, so I replaced them. Even the seats and the center armrest would get dirty easily, so I had them covered in leather. The headlights were halogen, so I swapped them for LEDs. The horn also sounded weak, so I changed that too. In terms of performance, it's decent—not a rocket, but more than enough for daily commutes. At speeds over 120 km/h, the car felt a bit floaty, so I upgraded the wheels and tires from 16" to 17", which really improved its stability. The most impressive thing, hands down, has been the fuel consumption—it once dropped to 3.9L/100km! But after I accidentally reset the system, it now reads 5.3 and I can't figure out how to get it back. Space-wise, it's fine—comfortable up front, and okay for two people in the back, but three will feel cramped. The one thing that really bugs me is the A/C, especially for rear passengers. There aren’t effective rear vents, and airflow is a bit weak during summer. I enjoy tweaking my car, so I’ve done a lot of modifications—brakes, tires, wheels, lights, sound system, and a few small accessories. Overall, though, I’m satisfied. My advice for anyone planning to buy one: don't go for it just because everyone else is. Buy it because you’re personally convinced. Compare prices and features carefully. At the end of the day, the Corolla is a solid, respectable car. It won’t let you down, but it’s not perfect—there are things that need a bit of work, depending on your preferences and how willing you are to spend a little more after buying it.
