Magotan 1.8T requires 95 or higher octane gasoline. The selection of gasoline grade and refueling precautions are as follows: Gasoline grade selection: Common gasoline grades in China mainly include 92 and 95, among others. The gasoline grade indicates the octane number of the gasoline, and gasoline with a higher octane number has better anti-knock performance. Diesel grades are different from gasoline, as diesel grades represent the freezing point. Refueling precautions: Try not to wait until the fuel warning light comes on before refueling. This is because the fuel pump is located inside the fuel tank and operates at a high temperature when running continuously. Being immersed in fuel helps to effectively cool it down. When the fuel warning light comes on, it means the fuel level is already below the fuel pump. If you always wait until the light comes on to refuel, it will shorten the service life of the fuel pump. Having too little fuel or running out of fuel can also burn out the fuel pump. If the vehicle has been driven for more than 30,000 kilometers, extra caution is needed. When the fuel level is too low, the fuel pump may draw up sediment from the bottom of the tank, which can easily clog the fuel pump or block the fuel line.

What are the consequences of abruptly pressing the accelerator pedal when starting on icy or snowy roads?

Abruptly pressing the accelerator pedal when starting on icy or snowy roads can cause the vehicle to lose control, so it is advisable to gently apply the brakes when driving on such surfaces. Precautions for driving on icy or snowy roads: Always allow extra braking distance: When driving on snow, the friction coefficient decreases, making braking more difficult to control. Generally, ABS can prevent wheel lock-up by continuously applying the brakes, so it is recommended to maintain firm pressure on the brake pedal for maximum braking effectiveness. However, on icy or snowy roads, this approach may result in poorer braking performance. Ensure clear visibility through the front and rear windshields: Before driving in snowy conditions, first check if the windshield wipers and washer fluid are functioning properly. Snow melting from the roof can flow down the front windshield, and mud or dirt kicked up by vehicles ahead can also splash onto the windshield. In such cases, use the washer fluid and wipers to maintain clear visibility. Apply the accelerator gently: On icy or snowy roads, avoid pressing the accelerator pedal as deeply as you would normally. Instead, apply gentle pressure to maintain forward motion without excessive acceleration. It is also advisable to keep the transmission in a lower gear, such as third gear. This not only helps control speed through engine braking but also makes it easier to achieve a reasonable forward speed.

Can the car windshield be left without film?

Car windshields can be left without film, as car window tinting is not mandatory or essential but rather a personal preference. Applying film can reduce exposure to sunlight and UV rays, and the windshield is the primary area where the performance of explosion-proof and heat-insulating films—such as explosion resistance, heat insulation, and anti-glare—is most evident. The car windshield has a laminated interlayer designed for explosion resistance, and modern windshields generally come with UV protection and heat insulation features. The vehicle's windshield is the main source of heat radiation that raises the temperature inside the car. Applying film can relatively improve the driving environment, reduce air conditioning energy consumption, and achieve energy-saving effects.

Which Vehicles Require Urea?

Vehicles that require urea include: heavy-duty trucks, buses and other diesel vehicles. Automotive urea refers to diesel exhaust fluid (DEF), primarily used in SCR technology to reduce nitrogen oxide emissions from diesel exhaust. To meet annual emission inspection standards, diesel vehicles must be equipped with an SCR system for exhaust treatment. Automotive urea is used by the SCR system to process nitrogen oxides in exhaust gases. DEF is an essential additive for SCR systems. When nitrogen oxides are detected in the exhaust pipe, the urea tank automatically sprays DEF, which undergoes redox reactions with nitrogen oxides in the SCR catalytic converter, producing harmless nitrogen gas and water vapor for emission.

Has the environmental protection sticker on the car been canceled?

The environmental protection sticker on the car has been canceled. The removal of the green environmental protection label is because it has been merged with the vehicle inspection label. This does not mean that vehicles no longer need to undergo emissions testing. Every time a vehicle undergoes its annual inspection, emissions testing is still required. Only after passing the emissions test is the vehicle allowed on the road. Vehicle annual inspection refers to the annual examination of vehicles that have already obtained official license plates and registration certificates, conducted in accordance with the technical conditions for the safe operation of motor vehicles. The purpose is to check the technical condition of the vehicle, enhance vehicle maintenance and upkeep, ensure the vehicle is in good condition, and guarantee its performance and driving safety.

How often should tires be replaced under normal conditions?

Under normal conditions, tires should be replaced every 3 years. If the vehicle is driven 20,000 kilometers per year, replacement should be considered every 2 to 3 years; if it's driven around 10,000 kilometers annually, replacement should be considered every 4 to 5 years. Tires are often used in complex and demanding conditions, enduring various deformations, loads, forces, and temperature extremes during operation. Therefore, they must possess relatively high load-bearing capacity, traction performance, and cushioning properties. Car tires are one of the crucial components of a vehicle, directly contacting the road surface and working in conjunction with the suspension system to mitigate shocks encountered during driving, ensuring good ride comfort and smooth operation.
