I often drive a 2016 Octavia myself, and resetting the maintenance light is really not difficult. First, turn off the engine without starting it, locate the small square button on the right side of the dashboard, and hold it down firmly without letting go. Then, turn the key to power on the ignition—don't start the engine! Wait until the dashboard displays the prompt 'Reset maintenance information?' and immediately release the button, then quickly press it again to confirm. For newer models with a multifunction steering wheel, press the menu button on the steering wheel to enter settings, select 'Maintenance,' and then reset. Remember to engage the handbrake for safety during the operation. Last time, my neighbor ignored the prompt and started the engine directly, wasting ten minutes for nothing.

What oil filter does the Changan CS75 use?

Changan CS75 uses the Bosch AF0255 oil filter. The oil filter, also known as the oil strainer, is used to remove dust, metal particles, carbon deposits, and soot impurities from the oil to protect the engine. Here is some relevant information about the oil filter: 1. It filters the engine oil to improve its cleanliness and lubrication. It supplies clean oil to the crankshaft, connecting rod, camshaft, turbocharger, piston rings, etc., for lubrication, cooling, and cleaning, thereby reducing engine wear, optimizing performance, and extending the lifespan of these components. 2. Experts recommend replacing the oil filter every time the oil is changed. The reason is that the contaminants in the old oil filter can reduce the viscosity and cleanliness of the new oil, affect the oil circulation speed, and also damage the engine.

Will the insurance company compensate if the car is scratched?

If the car is scratched, the insurance company will provide compensation. However, with a standard car damage insurance policy, the compensation will not be 100%. The insurance company will only cover 70% of the damages. Below is a detailed introduction to car damage insurance: Car Damage Insurance: Car damage insurance provides compensation for the policyholder. If the insured vehicle is involved in an accident, the losses can be claimed through this insurance. After purchasing this insurance, the car owner does not need to bear the repair costs, making it a crucial policy for the vehicle. Car damage insurance covers unexpected traffic accidents as well. Other Insurance Types: Third-party liability insurance is essential when the policyholder is primarily at fault in a traffic accident. The no-deductible special clause insurance specifies an absolute deductible rate. In case of an accident where the car owner is fully responsible, the maximum deductible rate is 20%.

What Causes the Engine Oil Warning Light to Illuminate and How to Address It?

The main reasons for the engine oil warning light to illuminate are: 1. Excessive oil viscosity; 2. Blockage or improper adjustment of the pressure relief valve; 3. Insufficient oil level; 4. Overheating of the engine; 5. Malfunction of the oil bypass valve; 6. Clogged oil filter; 7. Oil pipeline leakage. When the engine oil warning light comes on, it is crucial to check the oil level immediately and monitor the warning light closely. If the oil light remains illuminated, the vehicle should not be driven further, and a tow truck should be called. It is essential to promptly diagnose and repair any issues causing the oil light to come on. Continuing to drive without identifying the cause can lead to severe engine damage, such as cylinder scoring or crankshaft seizure due to excessive wear.

Why can't the trunk be opened with the remote control?

The trunk may not open with the remote control due to a damaged or dead battery in the remote key, the trunk being blocked or stuck, or a malfunction in the trunk control circuit. Below is an introduction to the car trunk: Maintenance: Keep the trunk clean and use the nets on both sides correctly. Most cars come equipped with these nets to hold items that are prone to rolling, such as flashlights and small fire extinguishers. They don't take up much space, but it's not advisable to pile items together, as they may fall out of the nets due to bumps during driving. Precautions: Flammable and explosive items are prohibited. The car interior is a relatively enclosed space, and in summer, the temperature inside can become very high after being exposed to the sun. Storing flammable or explosive items in the trunk may lead to spontaneous combustion or explosion due to the high temperature.
