The Mercedes-Benz S350 can use 92 gasoline. Notes on gasoline usage: Strictly follow the gasoline grade recommended in the vehicle's user manual when selecting the gasoline type. Also, pay attention to whether the required octane rating is Research Octane Number (RON) or Motor Octane Number (MON). Try to use high-standard clean gasoline to improve the vehicle's fuel economy and emissions. When switching to other gasoline grades, the engine's ignition timing should be adjusted accordingly. When switching from a lower grade to a higher grade gasoline, the ignition timing should be advanced appropriately. Conversely, when switching from a higher grade to a lower grade gasoline, the ignition timing should be retarded appropriately. When driving from plains to highlands: Switch to a lower grade gasoline or retard the ignition timing appropriately to prevent engine overheating, which could affect engine performance. Conversely, when driving from highlands to plains, switch to a higher grade gasoline or advance the ignition timing appropriately to prevent engine knocking.

What to do if the brake switch is broken and the car lacks power when accelerating?

If the brake light switch is damaged and the car lacks power when accelerating, it needs to be replaced promptly. Here are methods to determine whether the brake disc needs replacement: 1. Listen for sounds: If there are abnormal noises when lightly pressing the brake, the brake pads must be replaced immediately. This is because the limit indicators on both sides of the brake pads have already directly rubbed against the brake disc, indicating that the brake pads have exceeded their limit. 2. Check the warning light: Typically, whether the brake disc warning light on the dashboard is illuminated serves as a basis for deciding whether to replace the brake disc. Normally, this indicator light is off. When the brake disc malfunctions or is excessively worn, the light will turn on and will turn off after repairs. 3. Check the thickness: Most brake disc products have wear indicators, with three small pits distributed on the disc surface. Use a vernier caliper to measure the depth of these pits, which is 1.5mm. When the total wear depth on both sides of the brake disc reaches 3mm, it is recommended to replace the brake disc promptly.

What are the main aspects to consider when inspecting a used car?

When inspecting a used car, the main aspects to consider are whether the documents are complete and the procedures are legal and complete; the hardware performance of the car, including whether the engine, transmission, chassis, etc., are normal; and the appearance of the car, including the sheet metal, paint, and body frame. Generally, a passenger car should have a vehicle property registration certificate, driving license, purchase tax certificate, road maintenance fee receipt, and insurance certificate. For trucks, additional documents such as an operating permit and pollution discharge compliance certificate are required. For a used car, these documents must be complete and genuine to facilitate procedures like transfer of ownership and license plate registration. When inspecting a used car, first check the vehicle's appearance for any paint scratches or misaligned sheet metal parts. Next, inspect the engine compartment for oil leaks and sufficient oil levels. Then, check whether the in-car equipment and functions are complete. Finally, examine the condition of the chassis, including the suspension, steering system, transmission, and other components to ensure they function properly. If you lack the expertise to assess the car's condition, it's best to have a professional inspect it.

Will Launching Damage an AT Transmission?

Launching puts stress on the transmission, whether it's a manual or automatic transmission. Frequent launching will reduce the service life of the transmission. It is recommended to minimize the use of launching techniques. For manual transmissions or dual-clutch transmissions, frequent launching will accelerate the wear of the clutch plates. More relevant information is as follows: 1. Introduction to Dual-Clutch Transmissions: Dual-clutch transmissions are developed based on manual transmissions, and their structure is similar to manual transmissions. A dual-clutch transmission simply has an additional set of clutches and shift control mechanism compared to a manual transmission. One set of clutches controls the odd gears, while the other controls the even gears. Dual-clutch transmissions offer fast shifting speeds and high transmission efficiency. 2. Classification of Dual-Clutch Transmissions: There are two types of dual-clutch transmissions—dry and wet. The clutch plates of a dry dual-clutch transmission are immersed in transmission fluid, while the transmission fluid of a wet dual-clutch transmission is also immersed in transmission fluid. Wet dual-clutch transmissions offer higher reliability and stability and can handle greater torque. Dry dual-clutch transmissions shift faster and have higher transmission efficiency.

When Does the Insurance for a New Car with Temporary License Plate Take Effect?

According to policy regulations, compulsory traffic insurance for new cars can take effect immediately after purchase, while commercial auto insurance generally becomes effective at midnight the following day after purchase. Some insurance companies also allow car owners the freedom to choose the effective time of their commercial auto insurance. Below are specific details about license plates: 1. Function of License Plates: License plates serve as identification and information registration for vehicles, primarily enabling the identification of the vehicle's region of registration and allowing access to the owner's details and registration information. 2. Classification by License Plate Color: Large civilian vehicles have yellow plates with black characters. Small civilian vehicles have blue plates with white characters. Embassy foreign vehicles have black plates with white characters and a red "Embassy" character mark. Consulate foreign vehicles have black plates with white characters and a red "Consulate" character mark. Other foreign vehicles have black plates with white characters. Test vehicle plates are blue with white characters, prefixed with a "Test" character mark. Learner vehicle plates are blue with white characters, prefixed with a "Learner" character mark. Temporary plates are white with red characters, prefixed with the word "Temporary." Coach vehicles have yellow plates with black characters, suffixed with a "Learner" character mark. Replacement plates for vehicles are white with black characters.

Should the DL250 use 95 or 92 octane gasoline?

According to the official vehicle manual recommendation, the DL250 should use 95 octane gasoline. Using gasoline with a lower octane rating may cause engine knocking. In addition to checking the appropriate gasoline grade in the vehicle manual, the DL250's fuel cap also indicates the recommended octane rating. Generally, the required gasoline grade can also be determined by the engine's compression ratio. Vehicles with a compression ratio between 8.6-9.9 should use 92 octane gasoline, while those with a compression ratio between 10.0-11.5 should use 95 octane gasoline. However, with the application of new technologies, the compression ratio alone cannot determine the required gasoline grade. Engines with high compression ratios can also be tuned to use lower octane gasoline because other factors, such as ignition timing, turbocharging technology, and Atkinson cycle technology, also play a role. Generally, the higher the gasoline octane rating, the higher the octane number and the better the anti-knock performance. 92 octane gasoline contains 92% isooctane and 8% n-heptane, while 95 octane gasoline contains 95% isooctane and 5% n-heptane. If the DL250 occasionally uses the wrong gasoline grade, simply switch back to the correct octane rating after consumption. However, long-term use of the wrong gasoline grade can have the following effects: For vehicles recommended to use lower octane gasoline, using higher octane gasoline will not cause damage, but the increased octane number may alter the fuel's ignition point, leading to delayed combustion in the engine. This reduces the engine's power output and thermal efficiency, resulting in poorer performance. For vehicles recommended to use higher octane gasoline, using lower octane gasoline can cause engine knocking. Due to the significantly lower octane number, the gasoline's ignition point decreases, causing premature ignition during the compression stroke. If combustion occurs before the spark plug fires during the compression stroke, resistance will arise during the upward stroke. This resistance makes the engine run very unstably. If the knocking is mild, it may only increase noise without significant engine damage. However, noticeable knocking indicates severe engine conditions, affecting not only driving stability but also causing abnormal wear on pistons and cylinders, potentially leading to cylinder scoring in severe cases.
