The Trumpchi GS8 holds 3.1 liters of windshield washer fluid. The functions of windshield washer fluid are: 1. Keeping the windshield transparent during night driving; 2. Extending the lifespan of the glass and wipers; 3. Preventing the windows from icing up in winter; 4. Preventing static electricity on the windows. Taking the Trumpchi GS8 as an example, its dimensions are 4835 millimeters in length, 1910 millimeters in width, and 1785 millimeters in height, with a wheelbase of 2800 millimeters and a fuel tank capacity of 66 liters. In terms of power, this vehicle is equipped with a 2.0T turbocharged engine, delivering a maximum power of 185 kW and a maximum torque of 390 Nm, paired with a 6-speed automatic transmission.

I've been driving the Trumpchi GS8 for three years, and there's actually quite a bit to know about windshield washer fluid. The reservoir on this car is quite spacious—I usually just pour directly into the filler neck until the fluid level is about two fingers' width below the bottle opening. I recommend using a full 2-liter bottle of washer fluid at a time; it typically won't overflow. In winter, be sure to use antifreeze-type fluid. Last time I didn't switch, the nozzles froze, and I had to pour hot water on them for ages. Before the rainy season, I always top it up, and I keep two extra bottles in the trunk for long trips. On gravel roads, the windshield gets dirty quickly, and driving without washer fluid is downright dangerous. Remember, don't use tap water—the mineral deposits can clog the spray nozzles.

As an owner who frequently drives to construction sites, I go through a lot of windshield washer fluid. I feel the GS8's reservoir capacity is significantly larger than that of regular sedans. Each time I refill, I pour two 1.5-liter bottles consecutively until the fluid level approaches the filler neck's edge before stopping. Key reminder: Overfilling can cause spillage during bumps, potentially corroding the paint, but adding too little won't suffice for highway driving. I check the level monthly and top up when it drops below one-third of the filler neck. In summer, I use bug remover formula, switching to -25°C rated fluid in winter—never mix seasonal formulas to avoid damaging the wipers for the sake of saving money.

Just helped my neighbor top up the washer fluid for his GS8 last week, super easy. Pop the hood and look for the blue cap with the windshield washer symbol. Slowly pour in a standard 2-liter washer fluid until the liquid nears the filler neck's inner edge. Newbies note: Don't use tap water to avoid scale buildup, pour gently to prevent splashing onto electrical components, and always secure the cap tightly to keep dust out. Typically needs refilling every two months - good to check during car washes. If the wiper spray seems weak or misdirected, first check if the washer fluid is running low.

What is the purpose of a motorcycle clutch?

The function of the clutch is quite simple. It acts as a bridge to transmit the engine's power to the gearbox. Clutch function: During this transmission process, there are varying speeds and torques. The faster the speed, the higher the gear ratio, which can cause issues. Therefore, the clutch is used to switch gears at different times and match the transmission speed accordingly. Clutch matching: The clutch enables direct matching between the engine's varying speeds and the gearbox's different gears. It serves as a transitional mechanism. Each time the clutch is pressed, it disengages the engine's speed from the gearbox's gears.
