I've been driving an Accord 1.5T, which uses a turbocharged engine with a relatively high compression ratio, making octane rating crucial when refueling. It's recommended to use 95-octane gasoline because higher octane reduces the risk of knocking, ensuring smoother engine operation and quicker acceleration response. Occasionally using 92-octane is acceptable, but especially during summer or high-load driving, 95-octane better protects engine longevity. Long-term use of lower-octane fuel may lead to more carbon deposits, affecting fuel efficiency. I've personally compared both; 95-octane is noticeably more stable at high speeds and quieter. From an economic perspective, the price difference is minimal—spending a few dozen extra bucks each month for peace of mind is worth it. Prioritizing engine health, 95-octane is the way to go, and the manual also recommends higher-grade fuel.

How to Operate the Remote Start Feature on the Geely Binyue?

Within 50 meters while the vehicle is locked, use the key to first press the lock button, then hold down the start button (long press the circular button) within two seconds to remotely start the engine. Additional information about the car's remote start feature is as follows: 1. The Geely Binyue's remote start function activates the engine via the car's remote key. Its working principle is: the vehicle starts the engine or motor based on signals received from the remote key. This feature is highly utilized in cold regions. Moreover, when the engine or motor is running, the central locking system remains engaged, ensuring safety. 2. The remote start control system can only be installed in automatic transmission models. This is because automatic transmissions are equipped with a TCU control unit, which informs the ECU engine control unit about the gear position. The engine will only start when the onboard computer confirms the gear is in the P (Park) position, preventing accidental vehicle movement. Aftermarket installations lack this protective feature.

What Causes the Abnormal Noise When a Car Bumps?

Most of the abnormal noises when a car bumps are due to the aging and hardening of the shock absorber top rubber. There is rubber at the connection point between the vehicle's shock absorber and the body, known as the shock absorber top rubber. The function of this rubber is to provide cushioning for the body and reduce vibrations. Over time, the rubber ages, and aged rubber hardens, causing abnormal noises from the body when driving over bumpy roads. Additional information is as follows: Antifreeze Usage Tips: Antifreeze is best used year-round. In addition to its antifreeze and cooling functions, antifreeze also has cleaning, rust removal, and anti-corrosion effects, reducing corrosion in the radiator and protecting the engine. Pay attention to selecting the correct color of antifreeze and avoid mixing different types. Brake Fluid Usage Tips: The functionality of the braking system is closely related to the brake fluid. When inspecting or replacing brake pads, brake discs, and other hardware, don't forget to check if the brake fluid needs to be topped up or replaced.

Should You Turn Off the Engine at Traffic Lights?

Whether to turn off the engine at traffic lights depends on the situation. If the waiting time exceeds 1 minute, the engine should be turned off. Otherwise, it is not necessary. Below is some information about turning off the engine at traffic lights: Wear and Tear: For daily use, this wear and tear is negligible. The engines of ordinary household cars generally have a lifespan of over 50,000 starts. Based on the frequency of turning off the engine during normal use, even after 10 years, the number of starts would still be far less than 50,000. Duration of Turning Off the Engine: Starting the engine immediately after turning it off consumes more fuel than idling. However, if the engine is turned off for more than 10 seconds or longer, the fuel consumption during restarting is equal to or even less than idling, which is beneficial for the car.

What is the vehicle that pumps concrete called?

The vehicle that pumps concrete is called a concrete pump, which includes truck-mounted pumps (pump trucks) and trailer-mounted ground pumps (further divided into electric pumps and diesel pumps). It can transport fluid concrete through pipelines to the concrete pouring surface. Here are some introductions about concrete pumping vehicles: Types: Concrete Pump Truck: A machine that uses pressure to continuously transport concrete through pipelines. It consists of a pump body and delivery pipes. According to the structural form, it can be divided into piston type, extrusion type, and hydraulic diaphragm type. The pump body is mounted on a truck chassis, and when equipped with an extendable or folding placing boom, it forms a pump truck. The concrete pump truck is modified from a heavy-duty truck chassis, with movement and power transmission devices, pumping and mixing devices, placing devices, and other auxiliary devices installed on the chassis. Components: It consists of five parts: boom, pumping, hydraulic, support, and electrical control.

Does Listening to Music While Driving Consume Fuel?

Listening to music while driving does not consume fuel. Unlike when parked and listening to music, the power is not drawn from the battery but from the rectified DC output of the generator. As long as the vehicle's engine is running, the generator is also operating, so the minimal power consumption does not increase fuel usage. Listening to music while driving neither consumes fuel nor electricity; it only consumes electricity when the car is turned off. Fuel consumption may occur if the music is played too loudly, affecting driving judgment. Generally, car engines have over 100 kilowatts of power, while the entire audio system consumes at most a few dozen watts—unless a professional sound system is installed. Therefore, this issue is negligible. Instead, focus on the air conditioning, which is the most energy-consuming device in the car. Maintain a calm driving mindset. Impatience is the biggest taboo while driving, as many traffic accidents are caused by impatient drivers. Avoid engaging in activities unrelated to driving, such as listening to music, making phone calls, smoking, or snacking, and always stay attentive to road conditions.
