The BJ40 has quite a few faults. More relevant information is as follows: Comprehensive fuel consumption: The Beijing BJ40's comprehensive fuel consumption is not low, with the 2.3T high-power model consuming nearly 11 liters. However, the BJ40 is after all a hardcore off-road vehicle, weighing 1.9 tons and equipped with off-road tires, so higher fuel consumption is normal. Actual fuel consumption: As a hardcore off-road vehicle, the BJ40's fuel consumption is much higher than that of ordinary family cars. Actual tests show that the diesel model of the BJ40 consumes 8.81L/100KM, which is quite good (mainly because diesel engines are inherently more fuel-efficient). The 2.3T model has relatively high fuel consumption, with a comprehensive fuel consumption of 13L/100KM under normal driving conditions, resulting in higher daily usage costs.

Does washing a car with seawater cause damage?

Washing a car with seawater can cause damage: Due to the high salt content in seawater, it chemically reacts with iron, accelerating oxidation and having strong corrosive properties, which can significantly harm the vehicle's exterior. If the car's exterior quality is poor, rust spots can appear in a short time. Below are some precautions for car washing: 1. Washing frequency: Under normal circumstances, washing the car once every 1-2 weeks is considered standard. 2. Wash as needed: Since each car is parked in different environments, some cars, aside from road driving, are mostly parked in underground garages and may remain clean for up to a month in good weather. Many vehicles parked outdoors typically accumulate a layer of dust within two weeks. Therefore, the washing frequency varies depending on the vehicle. 3. Detergents and washing tools: First, ensure the detergent used is neutral, as acidic or alkaline detergents can be somewhat corrosive to the car paint. For washing tools, especially the towels used on the car body, it's essential to use specialized pure cotton car-washing towels to avoid scratching the paint. 4. Wash after rain: Given the current environmental pollution, rainwater often contains acidic substances, so it's advisable to clean the car promptly. If there are stains or mud on the car, it's also recommended to wash them off as soon as possible to prevent corrosion and oxidation of the paint. 5. Regular paint maintenance: Maintenance treatments for the car paint surface generally include waxing and glazing. Between the two, glazing offers slightly better results than waxing, lasts longer, and is also more expensive.

Does switching from long-term use of 95-octane gasoline to 92-octane have any impact?

Switching from long-term use of 95-octane gasoline to 92-octane does have an impact. Occasionally using the wrong gasoline grade only requires switching back to the correct grade after consumption, but long-term use of the wrong gasoline grade can lead to the following effects: For vehicles recommended for low-octane gasoline, accidentally using high-octane gasoline will not cause damage. However, the increase in octane number will alter the fuel's ignition point, leading to delayed combustion in the engine. This means both the engine's power output and thermal efficiency will decrease, resulting in a noticeable drop in performance. For vehicles recommended for high-octane gasoline, using low-octane gasoline can cause engine knocking. Because the octane number is significantly lower, the reduced ignition point may cause premature ignition during the compression stroke. If combustion occurs before the spark plug fires, resistance will arise during the upward stroke. This resistance makes the engine run very unevenly. 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 addition to checking the appropriate gasoline grade in the vehicle's manual, you can also find it on the fuel tank cap. Generally, the gasoline grade can also be determined based on 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 suitable gasoline grade. High-compression engines can be tuned to use low-octane gasoline due to factors like ignition timing, turbocharging technology, and Atkinson cycle technology. Generally, the higher the gasoline grade, 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.
