Regular carbon deposit cleaning offers many advantages, with the main drawback being increased fuel consumption. The key benefits are reflected in the following aspects: 1. Helps restore and enhance vehicle power: Improves the stability of the fuel system operation, thereby restoring or enhancing engine power and design parameters. 2. Cleans the fuel system: Removing carbon deposits helps reduce the side effects of high sulfur and aromatic hydrocarbons in fuel, improving fuel quality to meet Euro 4 standards. 3. Saves fuel: Many car owners may notice that fuel consumption tends to increase after carbon deposits accumulate. This is primarily due to incomplete fuel combustion. Regular carbon deposit cleaning helps improve fuel molecular chains, thereby increasing gasoline octane ratings and combustion efficiency, leading to reduced fuel consumption. 4. Improves emissions: Regular carbon deposit cleaning enhances fuel quality, reduces the content of harmful components in emissions, and lowers PM2.5 emissions. 5. Reduces maintenance and extends lifespan: Regular carbon deposit cleaning can decrease the likelihood of engine knocking, eliminate the negative effects of cold starts on the engine, remove moisture from the fuel system to prevent rust, and avoid corrosion in the fuel system.

Is the 4008 equipped with independent suspension?

The Peugeot 4008 does not fully use independent suspension. The front suspension of the Peugeot 4008 uses an independent suspension, while the rear suspension uses a non-independent suspension. Independent suspensions are divided into MacPherson strut independent suspension, multi-link independent suspension, and double wishbone suspension system. MacPherson strut independent suspension: Generally used for the front wheels of small cars. Its design structure is simple, relatively lightweight, occupies less space, and is more convenient for the layout of the engine space. Comparatively, it has strong shock absorption performance. However, its stability is slightly weaker, and it is currently mainly used in the front suspension of household small cars. Multi-link independent suspension: The multi-link suspension system connects the wheels to the body using various linkage devices, with 4 to 5 links being the most common currently. This type of independent suspension system is also currently the best-performing in suspension design, naturally with higher costs. The positioning of the wheels can be automatically adjusted, offering excellent controllability. Double wishbone suspension system: The double wishbone suspension system has upper and lower wishbones, with lateral forces absorbed by both wishbones simultaneously, and the strut only bears the weight of the frame, thus having great lateral stiffness. Therefore, cars using this type of suspension have excellent roll control during aggressive driving and high grip. Additionally, its longitudinal height is significantly lower than that of the multi-link type, making it more conducive to the layout of the car's chassis, so it often appears in some small-sized, low-height, and very low-drag performance cars.

How often should new car tires be replaced?

You can determine whether new car tires need to be replaced based on the following criteria: 1. Car tires should be replaced every 3 to 5 years or 40,000 to 60,000 kilometers: After 2 to 3 years of use, small cracks will gradually appear on the sidewalls. If cracks are found, the tires should be replaced promptly. 2. If the tires have not reached the wear limit or mileage: Tires should also be replaced when they reach 5 years of use or when a large number of cracks appear on the sidewalls. As long as the tire sidewalls have not been impacted and the cords are not broken, they can continue to be used. 3. Tires need to be replaced when the actual wear limit is less than 1.6 mm: The triangular marks on the tire sidewalls can help the owner find a protrusion in the tread grooves to determine the actual wear limit of the tire. This value should be greater than 1.6 mm. If it is less than 1.6 mm, the tires need to be replaced.

What does the 'mode' in a car represent?

"mode" means pattern or direction, often located on the multifunction steering wheel and center console. Its meaning varies depending on its location, as follows: 1. If mode is located on the multifunction steering wheel, it serves as a button to control the car's multimedia switching, used to toggle between FM radio, AM radio, CD, or USB modes. 2. If mode is located in the air conditioning control area of the center console, it serves as a button to switch the car's air conditioning outlet mode, usually toggling between foot, head, and windshield modes.

How to adjust the car body in Subject 2?

Subject 2 car body adjustment methods are as follows: 1. The principle of adjusting the direction is based on the rear of the car, keeping in mind the principle of steering towards the side the rear is leaning. If you want the rear of the car to move to the right, turn the steering wheel to the right; if the rear moves to the left, turn the steering wheel to the left. Once the car body is adjusted, promptly straighten the steering wheel. 2. To achieve parallelism, observe the width on both sides in the left and right rearview mirrors. When the widths on both sides are equal, the car body adjustment is complete. If the car body is already aligned and parallel to the sideline, simply reverse the vehicle. If the car body is not parallel to the sideline, make minor adjustments until it is parallel.

What kind of engine oil does the Warrior use?

Warrior uses fully synthetic or semi-synthetic engine oil. In terms of power, the Warrior has launched three power models. The gasoline version is equipped with a 2.0T and 2.4T turbocharged engine, while the diesel version is equipped with a 2.5T turbocharged diesel engine. Information about engine oil is as follows: 1. Engine oil is the lubricant used by the engine. It consists of base oil and additives. 2. The density of engine oil is approximately 0.91×10³ (kg/m³). It can lubricate and reduce wear, assist in cooling, seal against leaks, prevent rust and corrosion, and act as a shock absorber for the engine. It is known as the 'blood' of the car. Base oil is the main component of lubricating oil, determining its basic properties, while additives can compensate for and improve the shortcomings of the base oil, giving it certain new properties. Additives are an important part of lubricating oil.
