I know the location of the air conditioning filter in the Trumpchi GS4 very well—it's behind the glove compartment in front of the passenger seat. Open the storage compartment, and you'll see a removable panel or cover. Once you move it aside, the filter slot is exposed. I drive this car myself, and I was a bit confused the first time I replaced it, so I checked the manual to confirm the position. The filter traps dust and bacteria, and failing to replace it in time can reduce the airflow from the AC and degrade the air quality inside the car, which may trigger nasal allergies. I replace the filter every six months or every 10,000 kilometers, making sure to buy the model that matches GAC Trumpchi. It’s also important to avoid excessive dust buildup in the car and develop a habit of regular checks.

The cabin air filter is located behind the glove compartment in the GAC Trumpchi GS4. After locating it, open the storage box, empty its contents, gently press the clips on both sides, and the panel can be removed to reveal the filter slot. I often help friends with this and notice many forget its location or damage the cover by pulling too hard. A dirty filter reduces airflow or causes odors, so it's recommended to replace it annually, especially in cities with heavy air pollution. Wear gloves during replacement to avoid dust contact, and take the opportunity to clean the glove compartment interior for hygiene. Keeping the filter clean extends the air conditioning system's lifespan and can even save some fuel costs.

The GAC GS4's cabin air filter is located behind the glove compartment on the passenger side. When I drive this car, I just open the glove box and push down the clips to reveal the filter slot. If the filter gets clogged, the AC airflow weakens or produces odors that can affect health. Replacing the filter yourself is easy - just buy the matching model online and change it approximately every six months. Don't neglect regular maintenance.

What is the Toyota SRS?

Toyota does not have a car model called SRS. Toyota SRS is a new airbag technology used by Toyota, which evenly distributes the impact force across the head and chest, preventing fragile passengers from directly colliding with the vehicle body and significantly reducing the likelihood of injury. Precautions for SRS: Do not strike or impact the area where the airbag is located. Avoid directly washing the airbag area with water, as a damp airbag may fail to protect the lives of drivers and passengers in critical moments. Generally, drivers should avoid leaning forward while driving. The sitting posture should be close to the seat, and the backrest should be adjusted to a position where the car can be comfortably controlled. This ensures sufficient space for the airbag to fully deploy and provide protection in case of an accident. For vehicles with airbags in the front passenger seat, do not allow children to sit in the front or place a child seat in this position unless the airbag can be manually deactivated. Otherwise, the airbag deployment could cause severe harm to the child.

Is 7 liters per 100 kilometers considered high fuel consumption?

Not considered high fuel consumption. Generally, cars consume between 6 to 8 liters. Below is relevant information about vehicle fuel consumption: 1. Introduction: Fuel consumption per 100 kilometers refers to the amount of fuel a vehicle consumes when traveling a hundred kilometers at a certain speed on the road, serving as a theoretical indicator for the vehicle. The fuel consumption per 100 kilometers is a value measured by manufacturers in an objective environment using a dynamometer installed on the vehicle's chassis, converted into speed parameters, and then calculated under specified speed conditions to determine the theoretical experimental fuel consumption data per 100 kilometers for the model. 2. Relationship between fuel consumption and displacement: Although fuel consumption is related to displacement, this relationship is not absolute. A larger cylinder volume can accommodate more combustible mixture (air-fuel), so under all other conditions being equal, an engine with a larger cylinder volume (displacement) will inevitably have better/higher power/fuel consumption.

Which parts are generally damaged in a statically flooded vehicle?

Strictly speaking, it causes damage to all components of the vehicle. Among them, the biggest issue with flooded vehicles is the electrical circuits; water submersion causes significant damage to electronic components. The mixed rainwater is highly corrosive and will affect the future functionality of electrical systems. The computer integrated circuits can oxidize due to soaking, often requiring inspection and replacement; otherwise, the vehicle cannot operate normally. Additionally, the engine, transmission, ABS, airbags, and onboard computers can short-circuit and get damaged after being submerged in water. To fully restore a flooded vehicle and repair it completely without replacing the original components carries relatively high risks. Generally, after restoration, flooded vehicles are highly likely to develop moldy odors or lose certain functionalities. In severe cases, issues like vehicle self-ignition, damage to the engine, transmission, or airbags may occur. Even if all necessary repairs and replacements are done during the repair process—replacing or repairing all water-damaged parts based on specific conditions, thoroughly drying and rust-proofing electrical system connectors and plugs, inspecting all vehicle fluids, replacing interior components, and thorough cleaning—there is still a risk of subsequent damage.

Where is the coolant drain port on the Trumpchi GS4?

The coolant drain port on the Trumpchi GS8 is located at the bottom of the radiator. Find a plastic knob and unscrew it to drain the coolant. The radiator is positioned at the front of the engine, near the bumper. Precautions for draining coolant: Ensure the engine and radiator are cold. Place a large basin beneath the radiator drain plug, carefully open the plug, and drain the coolant into the basin. Carefully pour the coolant into a sealed container for disposal. It is recommended to use the original Trumpchi GS4 coolant, as coolants from different manufacturers may have different chemical compositions, which could lead to chemical reactions that corrode pipes or cause coolant leaks or blockages. Never open the coolant vent cap when the engine is hot or has just been turned off, to avoid scalding from hot coolant. In extremely cold weather, if you need to enhance the antifreeze capability, you can appropriately increase the proportion of antifreeze additive. However, the concentration of antifreeze should not exceed 65%, as this could reduce its antifreeze capability and weaken the cooling effect. The drain screw is located beneath the radiator fan—take care when draining the coolant.

What is the appropriate tire pressure for the CT5?

The normal tire pressure range for the CT5 is 2.4-2.5 bar. According to the international GBT2978-2008 standard, the recommended tire pressures for different types of tires are as follows: Standard tires: 2.4-2.5 bar; Reinforced tires: 2.8-2.9 bar; Maximum pressure: Should not exceed 3.5 bar. Hazards of overinflated tires: Reduced tire friction and adhesion, affecting braking performance; Causes steering wheel vibration and deviation, reducing driving comfort; Accelerates wear on the central tread pattern, shortening tire lifespan; Increases vehicle vibration, indirectly affecting the lifespan of other components; Causes excessive stretching deformation of tire cords, reducing tire elasticity and increasing the load on the vehicle during driving; Decreases puncture resistance. When encountering sharp objects like nails or glass on the road, the tire is more prone to punctures, and impacts can cause internal cracks or blowouts, leading to tire failure.
