First, open the car door and power on the entire vehicle. There are two bidirectional arrow indicators on the left side of the multifunction steering wheel, which can be toggled back and forth. The fuel consumption display of Chery Tiggo 8 can be activated by pressing the button on the right side of the steering wheel. The fuel consumption is divided into average fuel consumption and instantaneous fuel consumption.

As a Tiggo 8 PLUS owner, I check the fuel consumption display daily, and the operation is quite simple. When driving, pay attention to the multifunction button area on the right side of the steering wheel. Locate the button with a schematic diagram icon (some models have a small house icon), and press it to switch the instrument cluster display. Press it several times until the large circular screen in the center shows 'Average Fuel Consumption' or 'Comprehensive Fuel Consumption,' with the unit displayed as L/100km. The small screen beside it will also show the instantaneous fuel consumption bar and remaining range. If you turn on the air conditioning or encounter traffic congestion, the fuel consumption numbers will fluctuate noticeably, so it's important to pay attention to your driving habits. The instrument cluster can also display segmented fuel consumption records, such as fuel consumption for a single trip, which is particularly helpful for understanding how fuel efficiency varies under different road conditions.

I've been repairing cars for over a decade and have worked on almost all Chery models. Adjusting the fuel consumption display on the Tiggo 8 PLUS is just a matter of pressing a few buttons. After starting the vehicle, look at the right side of the steering wheel—there's usually a button with a list symbol or a return arrow. Hold it down for two seconds to access the fuel consumption menu. Use the up and down buttons to toggle through data like 'current trip' and 'long-term fuel consumption.' Pay special attention to the data with a small 'A' icon; that's the true average fuel consumption. When tire pressure is low or the engine oil needs changing, this number will quietly increase by about 0.5. I often use this trick to assess a car's condition when helping customers. Regularly monitoring fuel consumption changes can reveal many potential issues.

It's simpler than you think once you try: Start the engine, locate the horizontal buttons on the right side of the steering wheel. Find the one with a menu icon (resembling three lines or a square), tap it to cycle through dashboard displays. Stop when fuel consumption data appears on the central screen. There are two types: real-time instantaneous fuel consumption shown as a dynamic bar graph that rises when accelerating, and average fuel consumption marked with 'AVG'. City driving typically shows around 9L/100km, while highway driving can drop to 7L/100km. To reset the data? Just hold the menu button for five seconds.

I didn't know before either, but later I found out it's controlled on the steering wheel. After starting the car, look at the dashboard and find the button with a dashboard icon among the row of buttons on the lower right side of the steering wheel. Press it, and the central LCD screen on the dashboard will cycle through various information. Stop when you see 'Average Fuel Consumption x.x L/100km'. The small screen on the left shows the instantaneous fuel consumption bar - if you press the accelerator hard, that column can reach the top. I recommend making a habit of keeping an eye on it while driving; it really helps with fuel economy. Last month, I consciously controlled the accelerator, and my fuel consumption actually dropped from 10.2 to 9.3.

How Often Should Brake Discs and Brake Pads Be Replaced?

Under normal circumstances, brake discs should be replaced every 50,000 to 80,000 kilometers, front brake pads approximately every 30,000 kilometers, and rear brake pads around every 80,000 kilometers. Relevant information about the braking system is as follows: Introduction to Brake Discs: Simply put, a brake disc is a round disc that rotates as the vehicle moves. The brake caliper clamps the brake disc to generate braking force. When the brakes are applied, it clamps the disc to slow down or stop the vehicle. Brake discs provide effective braking performance and are easier to maintain compared to drum brakes. Introduction to the Braking System: Automobiles rely on the rotation of their wheels to move on the road. But how do they stop when needed? Drivers can't extend their feet to the ground like in cartoons to halt the vehicle. Instead, the car's braking system is used to reduce speed and bring the car to a stop. The braking system generates friction between the brake pads and the wheel drum or disc, converting the vehicle's kinetic energy into heat during the friction process. Key components of the braking system include the brake disc, brake pads, vacuum booster pump, master brake cylinder, and wheel brake cylinder.

What Type of Transmission Oil is Used for Manual Transmissions?

Currently, the main types of transmission oil used include DEXRON, DEXRON-Ⅱ, and DEXRON-Ⅲ (produced by General Motors); ATF-F type oil (produced by Ford); and domestically developed No. 8 oil (primarily used in various passenger car hydraulic automatic transmission systems) and No. 6 oil (mainly used in the hydraulic torque converters of locomotives and heavy-duty trucks). Below is an introduction to transmission oil: 1. Transmission oil can clean the vehicle's gear-shifting system and also serves functions such as lubrication, heat dissipation, and sealing. It helps reduce wear and prolong the lifespan of the transmission components. 2. Manual transmission oil, also known as gear oil, is categorized into six grades from GL-1 to GL-6. Among these, GL-1 to GL-3 are more suited for heavy-duty applications but have been phased out of the market. Currently, GL-4 and GL-5 are commonly used in household vehicles. It is important to note that transmission oils should not be mixed, and manual transmissions must use manual transmission oil. 3. If the vehicle experiences issues such as difficulty shifting gears, jerky driving, lack of acceleration, or unusual noises from the transmission, the oil should be replaced promptly. 4. Generally, manual transmission oil should be replaced every 3 years or approximately 80,000 to 100,000 kilometers.

What are the symptoms of a faulty manual fuel pump in a diesel vehicle?

The symptoms of a faulty manual fuel pump in a diesel vehicle include: 1. Abnormal fuel supply from the manual fuel pump, and in severe cases, it may fail to deliver fuel; 2. Reduced fuel supply from the manual fuel pump, mainly due to clogged pump filters or blocked fuel lines; 3. Poor air tightness of the manual fuel pump, caused by aging or damaged sealing gaskets at the connections or loose fuel pipe fittings; 4. The manual fuel pump does not operate smoothly. The manual fuel pump in a diesel vehicle consists of the pump body, rear seat, fuel tank, and handle. The pump body is the core of the manual fuel pump, mainly composed of high and low pressure working chambers, check valves, low pressure valves, pressure relief valves, and backflow valves. The handle's main function is to drive the plunger in a reciprocating motion, thereby increasing the pressure of the fuel to generate oil pressure. The check valve controls the pressure of the high-pressure valve, maintaining it at around 1.5MPa.
