92 service refers to 92-octane gasoline, 95 service refers to 95-octane gasoline, and 98 service refers to 98-octane gasoline. 92 service: 92 service refers to 92-octane gasoline, which has an octane rating of 92 and contains 8% heptane. It is suitable for mid-range vehicles (those with relatively low compression ratios). 95 service: 95 service refers to 95-octane gasoline, which consists of 95% octane and 5% heptane. High-compression engines should use high-octane gasoline. Using low-octane gasoline in a high-compression engine can cause abnormal combustion, leading to knocking, increased fuel consumption, and reduced driving power. Of course, high-compression engines can also use lower-octane gasoline, but it is not advisable to choose gasoline solely based on compression ratio. Instead, follow the manufacturer's recommendations for fueling. 98 service: 98 service refers to 98-octane gasoline, which has an octane rating equivalent to a mixture of 98% isooctane and 2% heptane. The advantages of 98-octane gasoline are "two highs and two lows": higher anti-knock performance and power output, and lower harmful substances in the gasoline and lower exhaust emissions.

What does Aoff on a car mean?

On a car, Aoff refers to the button that turns off the auto start-stop function. The auto start-stop function can reduce exhaust emissions and save fuel. When the auto start-stop function is enabled, simply pressing the brake pedal while driving will cause the engine to automatically shut off after the vehicle comes to a complete stop for a few seconds. Releasing the brake or turning the steering wheel will automatically restart the engine. Additional information is as follows: 1. Function of Aoff: When the Aoff light is on, it indicates that the vehicle's engine auto start-stop function is active. This feature effectively protects the engine from damage and reduces fuel consumption, making it very practical. 2. When to turn off Aoff: Normally, the Aoff function can remain on, but it needs to be turned off when the vehicle is driving through deep water to prevent engine damage. As for how deep the water must be to require turning off Aoff, use the car's tires as a reference. If the water depth exceeds half the diameter of the car's tires, the Aoff function must be turned off; otherwise, the engine may be damaged.

What to Do if It Keeps Raining After Car Window Tinting?

Car windows can get wet after tinting. Here is more information about car window tinting: 1. Reason: Since car window tinting is generally applied to the inside of the windows, as long as you don't open the windows, getting wet from rain won't be a problem. 2. Functions: The main purposes are to block ultraviolet rays, reduce heat, prevent injuries from shattered glass, reduce glare, and, due to the one-way transparency of the tint film, protect personal privacy. Additionally, it can minimize damage to car interiors and passengers caused by UV exposure. By reflecting sunlight physically, it lowers the interior temperature, reduces the use of air conditioning, thereby decreasing fuel consumption and saving costs. 3. Working Principle: Through vacuum deposition or magnetron sputtering technology, metals such as aluminum, gold, copper, and silver are used to create multiple layers of highly insulating metal films. The outer shell electrons (free electrons) in metal materials are generally not bound by the nucleus. When exposed to light waves, the electric field of the light causes the free electrons to absorb the light's energy, producing oscillations at the same frequency as the light. These oscillations then emit light of the same frequency as the original light, which is known as light reflection.

What Causes the XRv Tire Pressure Yellow Light to Illuminate Unexpectedly?

XRv tire pressure yellow light illuminates unexpectedly for the following reasons: Abnormal tire pressure: Generally, an alert will trigger if the pressure is below 1.8 bar or exceeds 3.0 bar. In this case, tire inspection and pressure adjustment are required. Tire pressure monitoring system not reset: After inflating the tires, if the tire pressure reset is not performed promptly, the system will retain the previous data, causing the tire pressure monitoring indicator to light up. Simply performing a tire pressure reset will resolve this issue. Damaged tire pressure sensor: The tire pressure sensor, which monitors tire pressure, is installed inside the tire and connected to the tire inflation valve. If the sensor is damaged due to impact while driving, the tire pressure warning light may illuminate. In such cases, the only solution is to replace the sensor with a new one. Method for resetting the tire pressure monitoring system: First, turn on the ignition switch and press and hold the tire pressure monitoring reset button until you hear a "beep" sound, then release. The system will store the current normal tire pressure data, automatically clear the previous data, and finally, the dashboard warning light will turn off, indicating the tire pressure reset is complete.

How Does the Insurance Company Compensate for a Damaged Car?

If your car is hit, you should seek compensation from the other party. The other party will then involve their insurance company to assess the damage and determine the loss. The other party will submit the invoice to their insurance company for reimbursement. Here is more information about insurance compensation: 1. Reason: The primary party responsible for the loss is the other party. If the other party cannot be located after the accident, you need to obtain an accident certificate from the public security department. In this case, your own insurance company will only cover 70% of the loss. 2. Legal Basis: Article 8 of the "Compulsory Insurance Clauses for Motor Vehicle Traffic Accidents" stipulates the relevant provisions. 3. Other Expenses: Under the death and disability compensation limit and the no-fault death and disability compensation limit, the insurance covers funeral expenses, death compensation, transportation costs for the victim's relatives to attend the funeral, disability compensation, disability aid equipment costs, nursing fees, rehabilitation fees, transportation fees, living expenses for dependents, accommodation fees, lost wages, and mental distress compensation as determined by court judgment or mediation.
