Generally, Mercedes-Benz vehicles require at least 95-octane gasoline, while high-performance AMG models typically need 98-octane gasoline. Here are the specific details about refueling: Differences between 95 and 92 octane: Although 95-octane gasoline offers higher anti-knock performance and power, vehicles designed for lower octane should not blindly opt for higher octane fuel. Higher octane numbers are more suitable for engines with larger compression ratios. Engines in cars designed for 92-octane often have smaller compression ratios, and using 95-octane gasoline may increase engine knocking. Hazards of mixing 95 and 92 octane: Different octane grades of gasoline should not be mixed. For example, mixing 92 and 95-octane gasoline is not recommended. Long-term use of mixed fuels may negatively impact the engine, potentially leading to carbon deposits and increased fuel consumption.

What to Do If Your Vehicle Annual Inspection Expires?

Driving with an expired vehicle annual inspection is a violation. In case of an accident, you will not receive compensation, your vehicle may be impounded, and you will be fined. According to the Motor Vehicle Third-Party Liability Insurance Clause, the insurer will not be liable for compensation if the insured vehicle is involved in a traffic accident while not having undergone the required annual inspection or failing the inspection, or if the insured vehicle does not possess a valid driving license. This means the insurance contract only applies to qualified and legally compliant vehicles. In addition to refusing compensation for traffic accidents involving vehicles that have not undergone the annual inspection on time, insurance companies will also deny claims for lost vehicles. For small and micro non-commercial passenger vehicles, the inspection schedule is once every two years for the first six years, and annually thereafter. Medium-sized and larger vehicles require an annual inspection.

Is it okay to leave a car unused for 20 days?

It is generally okay to leave a car unused for 20 days, but it is recommended not to leave it parked for more than half a month. The potential harms of leaving a car unused for an extended period include: 1. The battery may lose charge if not recharged for a long time, making it difficult to start the car; 2. Tires may deform due to uneven pressure if left in the same position for too long. Precautions to take: 1. Store the car in a garage and cover it with a car cover to protect the paint from sun, rain, leaves, or other debris; 2. Do not engage the handbrake, as the brake system may rust due to chemical reactions with moisture and oxygen in the air, and prolonged exposure to rain may cause the brake discs and pads to stick together, potentially leading to wheel lock; 3. Disconnect the battery if the car will be unused for a long time to prevent electrical components from draining it; 4. Check the tire pressure of all four tires to ensure they are properly inflated and not leaking.

What Causes Intermittent Shaking When Idling in Park?

Intermittent shaking when idling in park can be caused by: 1. Severe engine carbon buildup - Common causes of vehicle shaking include excessively dirty throttle bodies or clogged fuel injectors; 2. Ignition system issues - Check the condition of spark plugs, high-voltage wires, and ignition coils. Poor ignition system performance or weak spark plug firing can also cause such symptoms; 3. Unstable fuel pressure - If you've already cleaned engine carbon deposits, serviced the throttle body, replaced gaskets and spark plugs but still experience shaking at idle, it's recommended to visit a 4S shop to check fuel supply pressure and intake pressure sensors. Abnormal fuel pump pressure or faulty intake pressure sensor readings can both cause vehicle shaking.
