It is possible to switch from using 98 octane gasoline to 95 octane. Here are the specific details about car refueling: 1. 98 octane gasoline currently has the highest octane rating in China. Although it offers better anti-knock performance and power, vehicles designed for lower octane fuel should not blindly opt for higher octane gasoline. Higher octane ratings are more suitable for engines with larger compression ratios. Engines designed for 95 octane gasoline typically have smaller compression ratios, and using 98 octane gasoline may increase engine knocking. 2. Different octane ratings of gasoline should not be mixed, such as mixing 95 and 98 octane gasoline. Long-term use of mixed fuels could potentially affect the engine, leading to issues like carbon deposits and increased fuel consumption.

Can I Call for Assistance When My Tire Is Flat?

It is not advisable to continue driving with zero tire pressure; it's best to pull over to the side of the road. If your tire is flat, you can call the manufacturer's free assistance hotline, and the manufacturer will arrange for the nearest 4S store to provide assistance. Alternatively, you can call your insurance company to arrange for assistance. Below are the hazards of continuing to drive with a flat tire: 1. Service Life: Continuing to drive on a flat tire increases the contact area between the tire and the ground, causing the tire temperature to rise sharply during driving. Additionally, severe deformation of the tire sidewall accelerates the aging of internal steel wires and fabric layers, increases fuel consumption, reduces the tire's service life, and may even lead to a potential blowout. 2. Wheel Rim Damage: Driving with zero tire pressure may also damage the wheel rim. If the rim is scratched, chipped, or deformed in any way, the severity of the damage or the location of the deformation should be assessed. If the damage is on the edge of the rim or at the point where the tire and rim make contact, it is recommended to stop using the rim.

Where is the battery located in the Mercedes-Benz R350?

The battery of the Mercedes-Benz R350 is located under the front passenger seat, specifically beneath the co-driver's seat. Below is some knowledge about the battery. Battery working principle: The negative electrode is made of a lead plate filled with sponge-like lead, and the positive electrode is made of a lead plate filled with lead dioxide, with 22-28% dilute sulfuric acid as the electrolyte. During charging, electrical energy is converted into chemical energy, and during discharging, chemical energy is converted back into electrical energy. When the battery discharges, metallic lead acts as the negative electrode, undergoing an oxidation reaction and being oxidized to lead sulfate; lead dioxide acts as the positive electrode, undergoing a reduction reaction and being reduced to lead sulfate. Battery maintenance methods: Avoid storing the battery in a discharged state. A discharged state refers to when the battery is not recharged promptly after use. In this state, sulfation is likely to occur, with lead sulfate crystals adhering to the plates, blocking ion channels and resulting in insufficient charging and reduced battery capacity. The longer the battery remains idle in a discharged state, the more severe the damage. When the battery is not in use, it should be charged once a month to extend its service life.
