Here are the reasons why the fuel nozzle keeps clicking off during refueling: Weather issues: Generally, fuel nozzle clicking off occurs more frequently in summer, mainly because hot weather causes the internal pressure in the fuel tank to rise, leading to fuel splashing out and triggering the nozzle to click off. Operation issues: If the refueling speed is too fast, it can easily cause fuel to splash, ultimately resulting in the nozzle clicking off. Fuel pipe issues: Some vehicle fuel tank designs by manufacturers are less reasonable, such as overly complex fuel pipe structures, which can cause fuel to splash during refueling, leading to the nozzle clicking off.

What is the warranty period for the Tiggo 8 battery?

The battery warranty period for the Tiggo 8 is three months or 5,000 kilometers. Here are some details about the battery: Battery replacement cycle: The service life of a car battery is 2-3 years, and the original battery of a new car can last more than 3 years. Therefore, if the battery has been in use for nearly two years, you should be aware that its service life may have expired. At this point, it is advisable to conduct tests in advance, identify and address any issues early, or replace the battery to avoid sudden "failure" during use, which could lead to losses. Battery replacement method: If the battery is dead, it is recommended to first measure the battery voltage. If using a multimeter, measure the battery voltage when starting the engine. You can first use a high-frequency discharge machine or a battery tester to measure. Under a load current of no less than 110 amps, the minimum voltage should not be lower than 9.6 volts and should remain stable for 5 seconds. If the voltage is below 9.6 volts but can remain stable for 5 seconds, it indicates over-discharge, and the battery should be recharged promptly.

What does Porsche's air replenishment mean?

When the Porsche dashboard indicates the need to replenish air, this is a tire pressure warning signal. The low reading on the tire pressure gauge means the tire is underinflated and requires air. Here are the details about the tire pressure warning: Solutions for when the tire pressure warning light comes on: Reduce the air pressure in all four tires to between 0.8 and 1.0 bar. With the vehicle powered on or running, inflate each tire one by one. When the pressure reaches the specified level, the car horn will sound once; if the pressure exceeds the limit, it will sound three times. Inflate each tire to the correct pressure, and the warning will automatically deactivate. Reasons for the tire pressure warning light to come on: The tire pressure monitoring light may come on due to a puncture in the tire. Sometimes, the light comes on because the tire pressure is too high—when any tire exceeds 3.0 bar, the tire pressure monitoring light will activate. Prolonged driving with low tire pressure can also trigger the warning light. This usually happens when one tire is significantly underinflated, causing the tire temperature to rise during high-speed driving, which in turn increases the tire pressure. In such cases, you should stop the vehicle to rest or replace the tire with a spare one promptly.
