Has anyone experienced oil leaks? My car has only 9,000 kilometers, and during maintenance, they found the valve cover was leaking. It took a week, but I finally got it back from the dealership today 😂. I asked some fellow car owners, and it seems there's a certain chance of this issue occurring 😂. It feels like Subaru's quality control is really lacking!

The valve covers on both sides are made of resin, so oil leaks are just a matter of time. If you get the chance, it's better to replace them with aluminum ones.

For a 12-year-old car that has already run 190,000 kilometers and is experiencing a lack of power when starting, it's generally recommended to use a high-mileage engine oil. High-mileage oils are specially formulated to help reduce oil consumption, minimize leaks and oil seepage, and reduce smoke and emissions in older engines. They also contain additives that help condition seals and protect worn engine parts. You might want to consider a 10W-40 or a 5W-30 high-mileage oil, depending on your climate and specific engine requirements. Always refer to your vehicle's manual or consult with a professional mechanic for the best advice tailored to your car's condition and needs.

Jetur X70, 2020 model. I started having a coolant leak, and when pressure was applied, the leak point was found. The four-way valve was replaced, and the heating pipe and water inlet pipe were tightened. It was also discovered that the water pump was leaking, and eventually, everything was replaced. However, after refilling the coolant, the mechanic found that the engine temperature was high, but it drops as soon as the heater is turned on. They spent half a day but couldn't find the problem, and the car not being fixed has caused a lot of issues. Have you encountered this before? How did you handle it?

Can version 3.1.9 be upgraded? It seems that versions 3.0.3 and 3.1.2 were pulled back just a few days after their release. Version 3.1.10 was just released a couple of days ago and hasn't been pushed out yet. Currently, version 3.1.9 is being pushed in China. In the U.S., 3.1.9 was pushed out in early July, and it has been available in Europe for about a week. According to U.S. car enthusiasts on forums, some vehicles experienced a flickering issue with the 360-degree surround view in versions 3.0.3 and 3.1.2, where the screen would briefly go black and then light up again. After upgrading to 3.1.9, the issue was significantly alleviated during the first week, with flickering still occurring but only going black for 0.2 seconds and then automatically recovering, not affecting usability. However, the results after one week were not satisfactory, with the 360-degree surround view showing more frequent "camera unavailable" warnings than before, still severely affecting use. Yet, some car owners reported never encountering this issue (even with the problematic 3.x versions), so it might be related to a specific batch of parts or the vehicle's personalized settings. Have car owners in China noticed this issue after upgrading, or are there any other problems?

Help needed! I have a 2017 model 95. With summer here, there's white smoke coming out at startup, but it goes back to normal after a few seconds. There's no lack of oil or water, and the computer diagnostics show everything is fine. I've been to several repair shops, but no one has found the problem. Has anyone else encountered a similar issue?

Does anyone know any news about the 25 model? The lack of CarPlay and the fact that it has two Type-A ports are really making me hesitate. I'm considering whether to wait for the 25 model to see if these two issues are improved. I was planning to finalize the purchase in the next two weeks, but after thinking it over, these two issues could really affect the user experience. I'm not in a rush to get a car. Sincerely asking for advice, thanks for the help, guys. [Crying emoji]

The release of the Zeekr 7X has made me more certain of one thing: the current 009 model really lacks sincerity, or you could say it's an over-engineered product. It's worth waiting for the all-new version or for a full-size SUV.

It's almost the 6th week, and the car hasn't finished production yet. Has anyone experienced a situation where it took more than 6 weeks? What was the compensation plan?
