GAC Trumpchi GS4 uses 92-octane gasoline. 92-octane gasoline: 92-octane gasoline has an octane rating of 92 and a heptane rating of 8, making it suitable for mid-range vehicles. On December 18, 2013, the General Administration of Quality Supervision, Inspection and Quarantine and the Standardization Administration of China jointly issued the fifth-phase national standard for automotive gasoline—"Automotive Gasoline" (GB17930—2013, replacing GB17930—2011). Hazards of using the wrong gasoline: Using higher-octane gasoline in a vehicle designed for lower-octane fuel will not cause damage, but the increase in octane rating may alter the fuel's ignition point, leading to delayed combustion in the engine. Conversely, using lower-octane gasoline in a high-octane vehicle can cause engine knocking, as the reduced octane rating lowers the ignition point. If the octane rating is too low, the gasoline engine may behave like a "hybrid diesel engine."

What Problems Can Occur When Water Enters the Car Air Conditioning System?

Water entering the car air conditioning system can easily cause damage to the compressor, icing of the filter bottle, and ice blockage of the expansion valve. Therefore, it is best to avoid water ingress. If water does enter, use an air conditioning cleaning solution to clean it, then blow it out with air. After completing these steps, it is essential to add some compressor oil to ensure the air conditioning system has sufficient lubrication. Additional information is as follows: 1. If car audio equipment is exposed to air conditioning cleaning water: Immediately disconnect the power, dismantle the audio host, and thoroughly dry any moisture on the circuits. If the water ingress has caused the audio system to fail to power on, the situation becomes quite complicated, as it likely indicates damage to electrical components. It is necessary to take it to an audio repair shop to check if it can be repaired. 2. Effects of water entering the car air conditioning system: Ice blockage due to water ingress is a minor issue and can be resolved by cleaning and recharging the refrigerant. The more critical concern is that it can lead to compressor cylinder explosion.

Should I go to a 4S shop or outside for a broken tire?

It is better to go to a 4S shop to replace a broken tire. The quality of tires in outside car repair shops varies greatly. If you want to replace them outside, you must go to a professional tire brand store. However, when replacing at a 4S shop, you generally don’t need to consider these issues because 4S shops provide warranties for the replaced parts. 4S shops usually offer one-stop services, and the service you receive when replacing tires at a 4S shop is generally more advanced than outside. Below is some relevant information about tire replacement: 1. After tire disassembly and installation, a balancing machine must be used to test the balance of the tire and wheel hub during movement to ensure smooth driving. 2. When replacing tires, the valve stem should also be replaced. The valve stem is a rubber product that gradually ages over time and under environmental changes, leading to potential safety hazards. 3. Regularly check tire pressure, as both underinflation and overinflation can pose risks of tire blowouts. 4. After replacing tires, perform a four-wheel alignment to ensure the car maintains stable straight-line driving and light steering, reducing tire wear.
