I have extensive experience driving on highways. Safety always comes first when driving at high speeds, and maintaining a safe distance is crucial—don't follow too closely to avoid rear-end collisions. Keep your speed within the limit and avoid speeding, especially during rainy or foggy conditions when you should drive even slower. I always check my car's condition beforehand: ensuring tire pressure is adequate, brakes are responsive, and the tank is full to prevent delays. Long drives can cause fatigue, so don’t push yourself—take a break every two hours at rest stops, hydrate, and stretch. Additionally, always wear your seatbelt, keep your phone aside to avoid distractions, and stay alert to road signs and weather changes. These practices make the journey much safer.

Is the car film applied inside or outside the car?

Car window film should be applied to the inside of the car glass. Applying it on the inside protects it from wind and rain, slowing down the aging process and thus extending its lifespan. Additionally, the film is less exposed to external disturbances, reducing the risk of scratches or damage. Without exposure to the elements, the adhesive bonds more securely, preventing issues like peeling corners. The benefits of car window film include: 1. Heat and sun protection. The film effectively blocks a significant amount of infrared heat. 2. UV protection. Medium and long-wave ultraviolet rays can penetrate thick glass, but the film blocks most UV rays, protecting the skin and reducing interior aging. 3. Safety and explosion-proof. The film's base layer is made of polyester, which is highly resistant to tearing and puncturing. Combined with the adhesive layer, it strengthens the glass, preventing injuries from accidental breakage. 4. Privacy. Choosing the right type of film ensures that the inside of the car is not easily visible from the outside while maintaining clear visibility from inside, enhancing privacy and safety. 5. Reduced air conditioning consumption. The film compensates for the loss of cooling efficiency, quickly lowering the interior temperature and contributing to fuel savings.

What is the ideal temperature for car air conditioning in summer?

In summer, it is generally recommended to set the car air conditioning to around 25°C, as the comfortable temperature range for the human body is between 24°C and 27°C. Additionally, the local weather temperature should be considered, and the indoor-outdoor temperature difference should not exceed 5°C. Here is some relevant information: 1. The most suitable air conditioning temperature for the human body should be between 24°C and 27°C, with a minimum not lower than 22°C. The indoor-outdoor temperature difference should not exceed 5°C, and the air conditioning temperature at night should not be set below 24°C. If the air conditioning is set too low, the indoor temperature may become excessively cold, leading to 'air conditioning sickness,' which can cause symptoms such as colds, coughs, fever, and fatigue. 2. Many people, when faced with a hot car, immediately start the vehicle, turn on the air conditioning, and set the fan speed to the highest level to achieve the fastest cooling effect. However, this approach does not effectively lower the interior temperature quickly. 3. The correct method is to first open all four windows to allow cross-ventilation, helping the interior temperature to equalize with the outdoor temperature as quickly as possible. Then, close the windows and turn on the air conditioning in recirculation mode for cooling.

Why Do Some Cars Require 95 Octane Gasoline?

Using 95 octane gasoline is recommended in the official vehicle owner's manual for these cars. In addition to checking the appropriate gasoline grade in the owner's manual, you can also find it indicated on the fuel tank cap. Typically, the required gasoline grade can also be determined based on the engine's compression ratio. Cars with an engine compression ratio between 8.6-9.9 should use 92 octane gasoline, while those with a compression ratio between 10.0-11.5 should use 95 octane gasoline. For higher compression ratios, 98 octane gasoline is recommended. However, with the use of some new technologies nowadays, the compression ratio alone cannot determine the required gasoline grade. High compression ratio engines can also be tuned to use lower octane gasoline. This is because, besides the compression ratio, other factors such as ignition timing, turbocharging technology, and Atkinson cycle technology also play a role. Generally, the higher the gasoline octane number, the higher the octane rating and the better the anti-knock performance. 92 octane gasoline contains 92% isooctane and 8% n-heptane, while 95 octane gasoline contains 95% isooctane and 5% n-heptane. Occasionally using the wrong gasoline grade only requires switching back to the correct grade after consumption. However, long-term use of the wrong gasoline grade can have the following effects: For vehicles recommended to use lower octane gasoline, using higher octane gasoline will not cause damage. However, the increase in octane rating alters the fuel's ignition point, leading to delayed combustion in the engine. This results in reduced engine power and thermal efficiency, with the practical feedback being poorer performance. For vehicles recommended to use higher octane gasoline, using lower octane gasoline can cause engine knocking. This is because the significantly lower octane rating lowers the gasoline's ignition point, causing premature ignition during the compression stroke. If combustion occurs before the spark plug fires, resistance is created during the upward stroke. This resistance makes the engine run very unstably. If the knocking is imperceptible, it only increases noise without obvious engine damage. However, noticeable knocking indicates severe engine conditions, affecting not only driving stability but also causing abnormal wear on pistons and cylinders, and in severe cases, cylinder scoring.

How Many Times Should a Car Be Started to Ignite?

Under normal circumstances, a car should start with just one ignition attempt. If the car is difficult to start, it may require multiple attempts. The reasons for difficulty in starting a car are as follows: 1. Low concentration of the air-fuel mixture. 2. Poor gasoline atomization. 3. Insufficient ignition energy. 4. Battery issues. 5. Damage or aging of the ignition coil and spark plugs. 6. Dirty throttle, intake, and exhaust systems. 7. Use of substandard gasoline. Solutions for difficult car ignition include: 1. Press the horn to assess the battery's charge level based on the sound. If insufficient, check if the electrolyte level is adequate and inspect the battery casing and plates for damage. 2. Inspect the spark plugs to determine if the issue lies with the ignition system or the fuel supply system based on the spark strength. 3. Remove the spark plugs and turn the engine to diagnose whether the problem is with the fuel supply system or ignition timing based on the dryness, moisture, and smell of the exhaust gases. 4. Remove the engine cover to check the ignition timing. If incorrect, adjust the breaker. If correct, clean the breaker. 5. Use a cylinder pressure gauge to check; if the compression pressure is not less than 6.10 Pascals, it indicates an internal mechanical fault in the engine. 6. Remove the muffler; if there is excessive carbon buildup, it indicates a blockage in the exhaust system. 7. Check the car battery for normal operation and sufficient voltage.

What is the main function of car ABS?

ABS main functions: Fully utilize the effectiveness of the brakes, shortening braking time and distance. Effectively prevent vehicle skidding and fishtailing during emergency braking, ensuring good driving stability. Allow steering during emergency braking, providing good steering control. Avoid severe friction between tires and the ground, reducing tire wear. ABS classification: ABS is mainly classified by channels. In ABS, the brake pipelines that can independently adjust brake pressure are called control channels. ABS control channels are divided into four-channel, three-channel, two-channel, and single-channel types. Single-channel ABS: Also called one-channel ABS, it has a brake pressure regulator installed in the rear wheel brake main pipe, with a wheel speed sensor mounted on the rear axle differential (or one on each rear wheel). Two-channel ABS: This type of ABS struggles to balance directional stability, steering control, and braking effectiveness, and is rarely used today. Three-channel ABS: Independently controls the two front wheels, while the two rear wheels are controlled together based on the low-select principle (i.e., both wheels are controlled by one channel to ensure the wheel with less traction does not lock), also known as hybrid control. Four-channel ABS: Equipped with four wheel speed sensors, each brake pipeline leading to the four wheel brake cylinders has a brake pressure regulator for independent control, forming a four-channel control system.

What to Do If the Vehicle's First Maintenance Period Has Passed?

If the car exceeds the first maintenance period, but the time and mileage are not too long and still within the limits allowed by the 4S store, then you can still enjoy free first maintenance, so there's no need to worry. According to industry professionals at 4S stores, the first maintenance period is determined by two indicators: mileage and time, whichever comes first. Exceeding either of these may affect the warranty. Therefore, new car owners should pay close attention to the first maintenance schedule. Below is a related introduction: 1. New Car First Maintenance: The key tasks for the first maintenance of a new car are changing the engine oil and oil filter. The period before the first maintenance is the vehicle's break-in period. During this time, as the engine gradually breaks in, dust, metal wear, carbon deposits, and other mechanical impurities will continuously mix into the engine oil. This is why it's often advised not to drive at high speeds during the break-in period—because the oil contains too many impurities, and high-speed driving can lead to abnormal engine wear. Therefore, changing the oil and filter during the first maintenance is crucial. If the debris and impurities produced by the engine are not promptly removed, they may cause abnormal damage to the internal parts of the cylinders. 2. Chassis Inspection: During the first maintenance, the car will be lifted to inspect the chassis for any scratches, underbody impacts, corrosion, or oil leaks. 3. Tire Inspection: This mainly involves checking whether the tire wear is even. If the wear is uneven, it may indicate that the vehicle has a tendency to pull to one side. Additionally, tire pressure will be checked and adjusted as needed. 4. Computer System Check: Through a computer system check, potential issues with the car can be comprehensively detected, after which the maintenance personnel will address any problems accordingly.
