What is the reason for the side mirrors not folding when locking the car suddenly today?

It might be because the side mirror knob was not rotated to the "AUTO" position when adjusting the mirrors, or the option "Auto-fold mirrors when locking the car" was not selected in the central control system. You can try setting the side mirrors first and then attempt to lock the car again. If the problem persists, then it is necessary to visit a 4S shop to check if there are any issues with the side mirror circuit. Generally, this situation is caused by either a setting or a circuit problem, which is not a major issue. More details are as follows: 1. Reasons for the failure of auto-folding mirrors: The failure of auto-folding mirrors could be due to circuit or setting issues. If the adjustment knob is not rotated to the AUTO position, the mirrors will not fold automatically when the car is locked. 2. Solutions for the failure of auto-folding mirrors: If it is a circuit problem, it requires inspection by a professional repair facility, which is generally beyond the capability of the car owner. You can also check if the folding mechanism of the mirrors is obstructed by any foreign objects, as this can also lead to the failure of the mirrors to fold.

Should the Mercedes-Benz S400 use 95 or 98 octane fuel?

According to the official vehicle manual recommendation, the Mercedes-Benz S400 should use 95 octane fuel. In addition to checking the appropriate fuel grade in the vehicle manual, the Mercedes-Benz S400 can also refer to the label on the fuel tank cap, which will indicate the recommended fuel type. Typically, the fuel 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 fuel, while those with a compression ratio between 10.0-11.5 should use 95 octane fuel. However, with the application of new technologies, the compression ratio alone cannot determine the required fuel grade. High-compression engines can also be tuned to use lower-octane fuel, as factors such as ignition timing, turbocharging technology, and Atkinson cycle technology also play a role. Generally, the higher the fuel octane rating, the higher the octane number and the better the anti-knock performance. 92 octane fuel contains 92% isooctane and 8% n-heptane, while 95 octane fuel contains 95% isooctane and 5% n-heptane. If the Mercedes-Benz S400 occasionally uses the wrong fuel grade, simply switch back to the correct grade after consumption. However, long-term use of the wrong fuel grade can have the following effects: For vehicles recommended to use lower-octane fuel, using higher-octane fuel will not cause damage, but the increased octane number may alter the fuel's ignition point, leading to delayed combustion in the engine. This reduces the engine's power output and thermal efficiency, resulting in poorer performance. For vehicles recommended to use higher-octane fuel, using lower-octane fuel can cause engine knocking. Due to the significantly lower octane number, the fuel's ignition point decreases, causing premature ignition during the compression stroke. If combustion occurs before the spark plug fires, resistance will develop during the upward stroke. This resistance makes the engine run very unstably. Mild knocking may only increase noise without significant engine damage, but severe knocking indicates serious engine conditions, affecting not only driving stability but also causing abnormal wear on pistons and cylinders, potentially leading to cylinder scoring.
