An 8G dash cam is sufficient for car use. The 8G memory capacity is relatively small, but it is adequate for daily driving if there are no specific requirements for video quality, clip duration, or time span of the recordings. However, it is recommended to purchase a memory card with larger capacity, as more memory allows for more video storage and longer recording times. A dash cam is a device that records images, sounds, and other relevant information during vehicle operation. After installation, it can record the entire driving process in video and audio, providing evidence in case of traffic accidents. Taking 1080P video quality as an example, an 8G memory card can typically record about 60 minutes of video; a 16G card can record 100 minutes; and a 64G card can record up to 400 minutes. Dash cams use loop recording. When the TF card is full, it will automatically overwrite the earliest recorded data. The video storage method of dash cams is such that if the internal storage is insufficient, it will automatically overwrite the oldest footage.

What to do if the car USB port is broken?

The solution for a broken car USB port is: First, confirm whether there is an issue with the power supply of the charging port, the external device, or the charging cable. If the external device and charging cable are fine (a common issue is a blown fuse in the charging port), simply replace it. If both the wiring and fuse are functioning properly, it is recommended to go to a repair facility to directly replace the charging port, as it is difficult to find replacement parts when disassembling and repairing a car USB port. The car USB port can charge devices like smartphones, while the USB port on the navigation system can read files from a USB drive, such as MV or MP3 files, and some can even read APE and FLAC formats. A car charger is an accessory designed to conveniently charge digital products using the car's power supply anytime, anywhere. Such products generally feature overload protection, short-circuit protection, high-voltage input protection, high-temperature protection, and quadruple safety protection functions.

What type of engine oil should be used for the Audi Q5?

Audi Q5 should use 5w40 engine oil. Engine oil is a substance enhanced with additives in base oil, primarily containing anti-wear additives, detergents, dispersants, and multi-grade oil viscosity index improvers. The performance of engine oil deteriorates over time with use, so it needs to be replaced regularly. Failure to change the oil for an extended period can accelerate engine wear.

What is the tire size of the Tayron?

The Tayron has two tire size models: 235/55R18 and 235/50R19. In 235/55R18, the first number 235 indicates the tire width is 235MM, 55 represents the tire's aspect ratio is 55%, meaning the section height is 55% of the width, and 18 denotes the rim diameter is 18 inches. The middle letter R stands for radial tire. In 235/50R19, the first number 235 indicates the tire width is 235MM, 50 represents the tire's aspect ratio is 50%, meaning the section height is 50% of the width, and 19 denotes the rim diameter is 19 inches. The middle letter R stands for radial tire. The original tires of the Volkswagen Tayron are from the Dunlop brand, and the spare tire is non-full-size. If you want to replace the tires yourself, you can follow these steps: Take out the spare tire and jack, place the jack under the frame of the tire to be replaced, ensuring the jack touches the metal part of the frame. Raise the jack until it supports the car. The jack should be positioned under the vehicle, check and ensure the jack is at a right angle to the ground. Remove the hubcap, loosen the nuts counterclockwise. Do not fully loosen the nuts, just enough to eliminate resistance. When loosening the nuts for the first time, keeping the tire on the ground ensures that the nuts turn instead of the tire. Turn the nuts counterclockwise until they are loose, repeat this step for all lug nuts, then completely remove the nuts. Place the new tire on the hub, carefully align the tire rim with the wheel bolts, install the lug nuts, and hand-tighten the nuts until all nuts are concealed. At this point, the tire replacement is complete. In addition to the model, tires also have the following common data: Tire cord material: indicated by Chinese pinyin, such as M-cotton cord, R-rayon cord, N-nylon cord, G-steel cord, ZG-steel radial cord tire. Speed rating: indicates the maximum speed at which the tire can carry a specified load under specified conditions. Letters A to Z represent the certified speed ratings from 4.8km/h to 300km/h. Common speed ratings include: Q: 160km/h; H: 210km/h; V: 240km/h; W: 270km/h; Y: 300km/h. Rim specification: indicates the rim size compatible with the tire for practical use, such as standard rim 5.00F.
