High altitude sickness in cars is caused by discomfort due to decreased air pressure and reduced oxygen levels. Symptoms of high altitude sickness in cars: Insufficient power; excessively high brake oil temperature; excessively high water temperature; engine stalling. Methods to address high altitude sickness in cars: Inspect the cooling system in advance and avoid using antifreeze containing alcohol; frequently monitor water temperature and take breaks when necessary; use a high-performance oil pump. High altitude sickness in cars occurs due to the external environment of low air pressure and oxygen levels in high-altitude regions. As vehicles travel deeper along the Sichuan-Tibet line, the increasing altitude leads to thinner air. With the continuous drop in air pressure, the oil pump may experience fuel cutoff, causing the engine to stall.
