The differences between vehicle crystal coating and film coating are as follows: 1. Brightness: Crystal coating produces a diamond-like 3D dazzling effect, while film coating only provides a crystal-like mirror effect. 2. Water repellency: Crystal coating is inorganic, completely resistant to acid rain erosion, and offers longer-lasting water repellency. 3. Scratch resistance: The film layer formed by crystal coating is 2-3 times thicker than that of ordinary film coating, resulting in significantly better scratch resistance. 4. Durability: Crystal coating uses inorganic crystalline materials, which are very stable and will not oxidize or decompose over time, providing superior durability. 5. Material composition: Film coating is organic, while crystal coating is completely inorganic. 6. Principle: Film coating involves the penetration of protective agents into the car paint to enhance protection, whereas crystal coating forms a protective film of a certain thickness on the paint surface, creating a solid barrier. 7. Time required: Film coating takes 2-6 hours, while crystal coating requires 2 days.

Is it necessary to clean carbon deposits inside the engine cylinders?

Cleaning carbon deposits inside the engine cylinders is necessary. Here is some information about car fuel consumption: Fuel consumption size: Generally, cars should be economical family cars~ then the fuel consumption per 100 kilometers for 1.0, 1.3, 1.6, and 2.0 cars is approximately 5L, 7L, 10L, and 12L, respectively. However, fuel consumption is a very complex issue and also depends on the car's performance, road conditions, and the driver's driving skills. Methods to save fuel: The engine temperature has a direct relationship with fuel savings. Both excessively high and low temperatures will lead to increased fuel consumption. The engine working water temperature should be maintained between 80℃-90℃. When starting the engine under low-temperature conditions, preheating is necessary. Preheating and warming up the engine can significantly save fuel. Regular maintenance: The intake system must be kept clean and unobstructed. The air filter must be frequently cleaned, the tightness of each connecting belt should be appropriate, tire pressure should not be too low, and the gap of the brake shoes should be regularly adjusted to avoid friction.

What Causes a Loud Noise When a Car Goes Over a Bump Without Slowing Down?

It is most likely that the shock absorber is damaged. It is recommended to repair or replace it immediately. Below are specific solutions to determine if the shock absorber spring is faulty: Listen for sounds: When the car is driving on rough roads, if you hear a heavy impact sound from the car, and the more bumpy the road, the more obvious this sound becomes, and if the sound is coming from the tire area, it indicates that the shock absorber may be faulty or no longer working properly. Check for oil leakage: Observe whether there is oil leakage. If the surface of the shock absorber is dry and clean, this is normal. If you find oil seeping from the top of the shock absorber, it may indicate that the hydraulic oil inside the shock absorber is leaking from the piston rod. When oil leakage occurs, it means the shock absorber is no longer functioning properly and requires repair. Test the body's bounce: When the car is parked by the roadside, you can press down on one side of the car's tire with your body, pushing the car downward and then quickly releasing it. If the car bounces up and down with elastic rebound, the shock absorber is functioning normally. If the car only moves up and down without bouncing back after several repetitions, it means the shock absorber has failed.

Is It Normal to Smell Gasoline When Starting the Car?

It is normal to smell gasoline when starting the car because during a cold start, the ECU adjusts the fuel injection volume appropriately based on intake temperature and coolant temperature signals. At this point, the engine has not yet reached its normal operating temperature, and the air-fuel mixture cannot burn completely. A very small amount of unburned fuel mixture is expelled, resulting in the smell of gasoline. Once the engine reaches its normal operating temperature of 80 to 90 degrees Celsius, the air-fuel mixture in the cylinders burns completely, and the gasoline smell disappears. If the gasoline smell persists after the engine has warmed up, it indicates a problem with the car. Reasons for a strong gasoline smell when starting the car: Insufficient air intake through the throttle body, leading to incorrect air flow information; Excessive carbon buildup in the combustion chamber and pistons, causing insufficient cylinder pressure; Excessive carbon deposits inside the engine, resulting in poor atomization of the air-fuel mixture; Leakage in the fuel line, forming sludge at the fuel pipe connections, with the odor entering the cabin through the air conditioning system. Alternatively, in older cars, rubber hoses in the engine compartment are prone to aging. Solutions to address a strong gasoline smell when starting the car due to leaks: Replace the rubber hoses of the fuel vapor canister; Tighten or repair fuel pipe connections; Repair or reinstall the fuel pump.

What grade of gasoline should the Tianyi C5 use?

The Tianyi C5 should use 92-octane gasoline, as this is the recommended grade specified in the vehicle's official user manual. In addition to checking the appropriate gasoline grade in the user manual, you can also find this information on the fuel tank cap, where it is usually indicated. Typically, the gasoline grade can also be determined based on the engine's compression ratio. Vehicles with an engine compression ratio between 8.6-9.9 should use 92-octane gasoline, those between 10.0-11.5 should use 95-octane, and those with higher compression ratios should use 98-octane. However, with the application of new technologies, the compression ratio alone cannot determine the required gasoline grade. Engines with high compression ratios can also be tuned to use lower-octane gasoline, as factors like ignition timing, turbocharging technology, and Atkinson cycle technology also play a role. Generally, the higher the gasoline grade, 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. If the Tianyi C5 occasionally uses the wrong gasoline grade, simply switch back to the correct grade after refueling. However, prolonged use of the wrong grade can have the following effects: Using a higher-octane gasoline in a vehicle designed for a lower grade will not cause damage, but the increased octane rating can alter the fuel's ignition point, leading to delayed combustion. This reduces the engine's power output and thermal efficiency, resulting in poorer performance. Using a lower-octane gasoline in a vehicle designed for a higher grade can cause engine knocking. The significantly lower octane rating lowers the fuel'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 unevenly. Mild knocking may only increase noise without noticeable engine damage, but severe knocking indicates serious engine issues, affecting driving stability and causing abnormal wear on pistons and cylinders. In extreme cases, it can lead to cylinder scoring.

What are the effects of using 92-octane gasoline on the Lamando?

According to the official vehicle manual recommendation, the Lamando should use 95-octane gasoline. In addition to checking the appropriate gasoline grade in the vehicle manual, you can also find it indicated on the fuel tank cap of the Lamando. Typically, the gasoline grade can also be determined based on the engine's compression ratio. Vehicles 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. However, with the application of some new technologies, the gasoline grade cannot be solely determined by the compression ratio. A high compression ratio can also be adjusted to use lower-octane gasoline. This is because, apart from the compression ratio, other factors such as ignition timing, turbocharging technology, and Atkinson cycle technology also play a role. Generally, the higher the gasoline grade, the higher the octane number 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. If the Lamando occasionally uses the wrong gasoline grade, simply switch back to the correct grade after the current tank is used up. 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, but the increase in octane number will alter the fuel's ignition point, leading to delayed combustion in the engine. This means both the engine's power output and thermal efficiency will decrease, resulting in poorer performance as experienced by the driver. For vehicles recommended to use higher-octane gasoline, using lower-octane gasoline can cause engine knocking. Due to the significantly lower octane number, the gasoline's ignition point decreases, causing premature ignition during the compression stroke. If the fuel combusts before the spark plug ignites it during the compression stroke, resistance will occur 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, if noticeable knocking occurs, it indicates severe engine conditions. The vibration not only affects driving stability but also causes abnormal wear on the pistons and cylinders, and in severe cases, can lead to cylinder scoring.
