The air filter of the Trumpchi GS8 is located inside the glove compartment in front of the front passenger seat. When removing the air filter, the process involves complex steps, including dismantling the glove compartment, decorative panels, and more than a dozen screws. To avoid unnecessary damage to components, it is recommended to have it replaced at a 4S store or a repair shop. The Trumpchi GS8 is a seven-seat high-end SUV launched by GAC Group's independent brand, GAC Trumpchi. In terms of body dimensions, the Trumpchi GS8 measures 4810mm in length, 1910mm in width, and 1770mm in height. Exterior-wise, the Trumpchi GS8 features more rugged lines, with a tall and wide front end that highlights its masculinity. The headlights adopt a matrix-style full LED light set, with four LED light sources inside, offering a very refined visual effect. The design of the taillights is also very distinctive, featuring a double U-shaped design that echoes the shape of the headlights, with an interior that is highly layered.

I've been driving the GAC GS8 for several years, and the cabin air filter is located behind the glove compartment on the passenger side, making it easy to access. First, you need to open the glove box—there are usually retaining clips on the inside that can be gently pressed to release and pull out the compartment. Once removed, you'll see the filter housing, a small rectangular or square cover that can be unscrewed to remove the old filter and insert a new one. I've changed it multiple times myself; at first, I was clumsy, but practice makes perfect. Now, I make sure to replace it every year before summer. This filter blocks dust, pollen, and air pollution, keeping the cabin odor-free and protecting your respiratory system. Especially when driving in the city with high pollen and exhaust levels, it's recommended to replace it every 10,000 kilometers. No need to hassle with repair shops—just buy a genuine filter for around ten yuan and you're set. The design is well thought-out, so there's no real difficulty. Regular checks can also extend your AC system's lifespan.

What brand is the original Volkswagen car audio system?

Volkswagen's original car audio system brand varies depending on the vehicle configuration. Different configurations use different audio systems: standard models typically use VDO, mid-range configurations feature Blaupunkt audio, while top-tier models are equipped with Dynaudio systems. Car audio systems are installed to alleviate the monotony of travel for drivers and passengers. The working principle of car audio divides sound frequencies into three types: high, mid, and low. To enrich the tone of car speakers, some audio systems combine high and low-frequency speakers in parallel to form dual-tone speakers. However, this configuration draws significant current, which can directly endanger the button contacts. To prevent the speaker button contacts from being damaged by arc sparks, some vehicles incorporate a relay in the circuit, using low current to control high current, thereby protecting the speaker button from damage by only passing low current.
