The fuel tank capacity of the Toyota Avalon is 60 liters, and the manufacturer recommends using 92-octane gasoline. For safety reasons, the engine must be turned off before refueling, and the fuel tank cap can be opened by pressing it without locking the car. The refueling process for the Toyota Avalon is as follows: 1. First, press the left side of the fuel tank cap to open it. 2. Unscrew the fuel tank sealing cap. 3. There is a designated placement spot for the fuel tank sealing cap on the fuel tank cover—simply insert it there. 4. At this point, insert the fuel nozzle into the fuel tank. 5. If the fuel pump stops automatically for the first time, it indicates that the tank is full. Do not continue refueling, as this could fill the expansion chamber of the fuel tank with gasoline. 6. Do not remove the fuel nozzle immediately; leave it in the fuel filler neck for 5 seconds to allow any remaining fuel to drain into the tank. 7. Tighten the fuel tank sealing cap by turning it clockwise until you hear a click. 8. To close the fuel tank cap, press the left side firmly until you hear a clicking sound.

I've been driving the Avalon for over two years now, and I usually fill up with 92-octane gasoline, as the manual recommends either 92 or 95. The 92-octane fuel is economical and keeps the engine running smoothly, handling stop-and-go city traffic without any issues. Once, I used low-quality fuel, and the engine noticeably shuddered, so now I only refuel at major chain gas stations where the quality is guaranteed. Regularly checking the spark plugs and carbon buildup is crucial because this car has a relatively low compression ratio, and lower-octane fuel burns adequately while saving money. Before long trips, I prefer to fill up with 95-octane fuel—just in case the engine faces increased stress on steep mountain roads, where higher octane helps prevent knocking. But for most daily driving, 92-octane is sufficient, as long as the fuel quality remains clean.

Where is the USB port on the Haval H2?

The USB port of the Haval H2 is located inside the storage compartment under the front armrest. Simply open the cover to use it. If you want to play music from a USB drive, you can store songs on it, but avoid using too many formats as the vehicle's computer typically only recognizes MP3 format. Below is some relevant information about the USB port: USB port current: Many car USB ports are designed for audio data transmission. The current of car USB ports can be either 5V/2.1A or 5V/0.5A. Most phones require an input current of 5V/1A, so a 5V/2.1A car USB port will work fine, providing 1A current for phones and 2A for tablets. However, with a 5V/0.5A port, the current will be insufficient, resulting in slow charging times and causing the phone to overheat. Port functions: Playing music from a USB drive, charging mobile phones, car USB cigarette lighter, car vacuum cleaner, radar detector, and dash cam.

How long is the break-in period for the Trumpchi GS4?

The break-in period for the GAC Trumpchi GS4, according to the user manual, is 1,500 kilometers. Below is additional information: Precautions: Engine speed should not be too high—it's best not to exceed 2,500 RPM. A speed of 60-90 km/h is ideal. During a cold start, there should be a warm-up process before driving; wait until the water temperature changes before setting off, usually around 2-3 minutes. In summer, when temperatures are high, a warm-up of about 1 minute is sufficient. Avoid sudden acceleration or braking, and try to maintain a steady speed. Break-in Period: During the break-in period, the vehicle's top speed should not exceed 100 km/h, but prolonged low-speed driving should also be avoided. It is safer and more appropriate to drive on highways after the break-in period is complete. Note that the break-in period is not just for the engine—it involves the entire vehicle's components. The first 200-500 kilometers mainly focus on breaking in the tires and brakes.

Can You Stop During Curve Driving?

Curve driving does not allow stopping. Below are specific details about the Subject 2 driving test: Introduction: Subject 2, also known as the small road test, is part of the motor vehicle driver's license assessment. It refers to the field driving skills test. For the C1 license, the test items include five mandatory components: reversing into a garage, parallel parking, stopping and starting on a slope, right-angle turns, and curve driving (commonly known as S-turns). Some regions also include a sixth item: highway toll card collection. For the C2 license, the test items include four mandatory components: reversing into a garage, parallel parking, right-angle turns, and curve driving (commonly known as S-turns). Teaching Objectives: Master the basic essentials of driving operations and possess the fundamental ability to control the vehicle. Proficiently grasp the basic methods of field and road driving, with the capability to reasonably use vehicle controls and correctly manage the vehicle's spatial position. Accurately control the vehicle's driving position, speed, and route.

What Should You Pay Attention to When Parking Daily

Daily parking requires attention to parking location and traffic compliance. Below is an introduction to daily parking precautions: Parking Location: Choose a side parking space, as it only faces adjacent vehicles on one side, making it the safest spot to prevent scratches. If you opt for a middle space, the likelihood of accidents significantly increases. Ensure the right side is wide; if there's no choice but a middle space, leave as much room as possible on the right side to facilitate the driver of the adjacent vehicle to open their door. Maintain a safe distance; generally, if the space is large enough, the parking distance should not be too great. The most dangerous distance is one meter, as it allows adjacent vehicles to open doors carelessly, increasing the chance of accidents. Traffic Compliance: Avoid haphazard parking. Parking randomly not only violates regulations but also inconveniences others and may provoke dissatisfaction, leading to potential damage to your vehicle. Whether driving or parking, follow rules and maintain courtesy. It's best to meet your parking needs without inconveniencing others.

What are the reasons for feeling a lack of power when pressing the car accelerator?

The main reasons for feeling a lack of power when pressing the car accelerator are related to the car's valves, fuel injectors, and pedal sensors. The specific situations are as follows: 1. Valve failure or intake pipe blockage: If the throttle valve fails or the intake pipe is blocked, it will result in insufficient air intake. Throttle valve failure affects the opening and closing degree, while carbon buildup in the intake pipe directly impacts the air intake volume. Reduced air intake affects the combustion efficiency of gasoline, leading to delayed acceleration. 2. Carbon buildup in fuel injectors or fuel line blockage: Carbon buildup in fuel injectors or fuel line blockage affects the fuel intake volume of the cylinders. Carbon buildup in fuel injectors affects the fuel spray volume, while fuel line blockage directly impacts the fuel intake volume or causes insufficient fuel supply. Insufficient fuel intake leads to an imbalance in the air-fuel ratio in the combustion chamber, resulting in incomplete combustion. 3. Pedal sensor failure: If the pedal sensor fails, the signal transmission when pressing the accelerator will be abnormal. This is also one of the reasons why there is a delayed response after pressing the accelerator.
