First, adjust the tire pressure to an even level, then use a tire pressure reset tool to reset each tire one by one, and finally manually clear and match the settings. The Trumpchi GS8 is equipped with a tire pressure monitoring function, which allows you to check whether the tire pressure is normal through the data displayed on the dashboard. The directional keys and OK button on the right side of the steering wheel are the dashboard control keys. The tire pressure monitoring system usually resets automatically after driving a certain distance. The normal tire pressure for the Trumpchi GS8 is 220 kPa, with the front and rear tires maintaining the same pressure. The tire pressure data refers to the cold tire pressure. Tire Pressure Inspection Guidelines: When checking tire pressure, please observe the following: Check only when the tires are cold. If the vehicle has been parked for at least 3 hours or driven less than 1.5 km, you can obtain an accurate cold tire pressure reading. Check the cold tire pressure at least once a month and before any long-distance trips. Do not forget the spare tire; ensure it is inflated to the specified full-load pressure. Trumpchi Tire Pressure Warning Light Reset: Generally, there are several situations: rapid air loss, high pressure, low pressure, or high temperature. The warning light illuminates as an alert to the driver based on tire pressure or other issues. It may also light up if the vehicle encounters uneven road surfaces during driving, causing uneven tire pressure. If the tire pressure warning light does not illuminate, it is advisable to check the tire pressure monitor before driving to ensure it is functioning properly. If the tire pressure monitor does not alert you promptly when an issue arises, it may indicate a problem with the monitor.

I've been driving the GAC GS8 for several years and have encountered the tire pressure warning light a few times. The most common causes are insufficient tire pressure or false alarms, so don't rush to reset it. Get out and use a tire pressure gauge to check each tire's pressure; the standard value is around 2.3 bar, but refer to the sticker on the door frame for specifics. If the pressure is normal, resetting is simple: start the engine but keep the car stationary, press the menu button on the left side of the steering wheel to enter the dashboard options, use the directional keys to find the tire pressure monitoring settings, select calibration reset, and confirm. After resetting, the light will blink a few times and then turn off. Drive for about ten minutes to let the system automatically learn. If the light comes on again, there might be a leak or a sensor issue, requiring professional inspection. Regularly checking tire pressure during maintenance can prevent the light from coming on, ensuring safe and fuel-efficient driving.

When I first started driving the GS8, I was also afraid of the tire pressure warning light coming on. The mechanic taught me not to panic. The first step is to pull over and check if the tire pressure is actually low, using a simple tire pressure gauge or getting a free check at a shop, ensuring each tire is at the normal value of 2.3 bar. The reset operation isn't complicated: after parking and starting the car, press the buttons on the right side of the steering wheel a few times to bring up the menu, select the tire pressure section, and click the reset option. Once the light goes off, you're good to go—taking a short drive to let it self-calibrate is even better. Remember to always check the pressure before resetting to avoid overlooking the risk of a leak. New drivers often neglect tire pressure, so developing a weekly self-check habit is key. It's simple, saves trouble, and boosts driving confidence.

Tire Pressure Light Reset Shortcut: Ensure the tire pressure is normal, around 2.3 bar. For the GS8, after starting the engine, without any manual operation, use the steering wheel control button to enter the vehicle menu, find the tire pressure calibration option, and select reset. The light will turn off once done. The system intelligently recalibrates automatically after driving for ten minutes. If the light remains on despite normal pressure, check for leaks or sensor issues. Regularly check the pressure to avoid alarms, ensuring safety and peace of mind.

Is a Dry Dual Clutch a CVT?

Dry dual clutch is not a CVT. Introduction to dry dual clutch: Dry type means that the clutch plates are not immersed in transmission oil. Without the lubrication oil for cooling, if the clutch remains in a semi-engaged state for a long time, it will overheat, slip, or even be damaged. Introduction to CVT: CVT refers to a continuously variable transmission, also known as a stepless transmission. The difference between a CVT and a stepped transmission is that its gear ratio is not a series of discrete points but a continuous range of values, which achieves good fuel economy, power performance, and driving smoothness while reducing emissions and costs.

Can a right-turning vehicle directly enter the leftmost lane?

Right-turning vehicles cannot directly enter the leftmost lane. Strictly speaking, a right turn must pass the stop line, but many turning behaviors without crossing the stop line are rarely penalized. Conditions under which a right turn is allowed: Generally, traffic regulations permit right-turning vehicles to turn right directly from the rightmost lane, provided it does not interfere with vehicles proceeding under a green light. Conditions under which a right turn is prohibited: When there is a separate right-turn arrow signal light and it is red; when auxiliary signs such as 'No right turn on red' or 'Right turn prohibited on red' are displayed at the traffic signal.

How to Use the Lever-Type Light Switch?

The method to use the lever-type light switch is as follows: turning the lever clockwise activates the right turn signal, turning it counterclockwise activates the left turn signal, pushing the lever outward turns on the high beams, pulling it inward toggles between high and low beams, rotating the lever to the left arrow position turns on the headlights and parking lights, and rotating it to the other arrow position turns on the fog lights. Precautions for using car lights include: 1. Turn on the low beams when driving at night; 2. Do not use high beams when the following vehicle is driving close to the vehicle in front in the same direction; 3. When passing sharp curves, slopes, arched bridges, crosswalks, or intersections without traffic signal control at night, alternate between high and low beams to signal.

Why does the speedometer needle fluctuate up and down?

Speedometer needle fluctuations are usually normal as long as the amplitude isn't particularly large. How speedometers work: The speedometer consists of a permanent magnet fixed to the drive shaft, an aluminum cup with shaft and pointer, a housing, and a dial firmly attached to the casing. When not in operation, the aluminum cup, under the action of a spiral spring (hairspring), keeps the pointer at the zero position on the scale. Types of speedometers: Common vehicle speedometers are typically divided into three types: purely mechanical, electro-mechanical, and fully electronic. The purely mechanical type has basically exited the market, the electro-mechanical type is most widely used, while the fully electronic type is typically used in the bus industry.

Why does the brake feel softer after replacing the brake master cylinder?

Reasons for softer brakes after replacing the brake master cylinder include air in the lines or excessive free travel/clearance in the pedal. Below are detailed explanations of the causes and solutions: Air in the lines: Compared to hydraulic pressure, air pressure is much lower. Therefore, air in the lines will reduce the overall pressure, making the brakes feel softer. Solution: Bleed the air out, preferably using a computerized diagnostic tool for brake bleeding. Excessive pedal free travel or clearance: Too much free travel or clearance in the brake pedal creates a feeling of stepping on air. Solution: Visit a repair shop for adjustment.
