Mercedes-Benz refrigerant is located in the expansion tank. After opening the engine hood, you can see a white translucent container, which is where the refrigerant is placed. This container is generally located in the upper left or right corner of the engine compartment. Refrigerant filling method: 1. Unscrew the radiator cap, open the radiator drain valve, and drain the antifreeze. 2. Insert a rubber hose connected to a tap water pipe into the radiator filler port, turn on the tap, and allow water to continuously flow through the engine cooling system. During the flushing operation, keep the engine idling and continue the above operation until clear water flows out of the radiator. 3. Turn off the tap, wait until the water in the cooling system is completely drained, and then close the radiator drain valve. 4. Add refrigerant until the radiator is full. Unscrew the reservoir cap, add refrigerant up to the "Max" mark, being careful not to exceed it. 5. Replace and tighten the radiator cap and reservoir cap. 6. Start the engine and let it idle for 2-3 minutes, then unscrew the radiator cap. At this point, as some air is expelled from the cooling system, the antifreeze level will drop. Additional refrigerant should be added until it reaches the "Max" mark again.

What are the effects of widening car tires?

Widening car tires has the following effects: 1. First, it affects the vehicle's power. Due to the increased friction, more energy is required to drive the tire's rotation, which directly translates to a decrease in power under the same powertrain. 2. Secondly, it leads to an increase in fuel consumption. The greater friction brings more resistance, necessitating the use of more fuel to drive the rotation, resulting in a noticeable rise in fuel consumption. 3. Widening the rear tires also reduces driving comfort. Tires with a smaller aspect ratio have thinner sidewalls, which decreases their cushioning ability. As a result, more road vibrations are transmitted to the vehicle body, leading to a reduction in comfort.

What can be used to deal with scratched car paint?

There are several methods to deal with scratched car paint: 1. If the scratch results in paint loss, you can first use a touch-up pen to repair the paint, which can prevent the metal body panels from rusting. After a simple touch-up, it is recommended to go to a professional paint repair shop or a 4S store for further paint restoration. 2. If the scratch does not damage the primer, no treatment is needed because without primer damage, the metal cannot come into contact with air and moisture, thus preventing rust on the metal body panels. Below is some relevant information: 1. A car's paint surface consists of four layers, from the inside out: the electrocoat layer, the primer layer, the basecoat layer, and the clearcoat layer. After the entire body is assembled, it is immersed in an electrocoating bath, forming an electrocoat layer on the surface. 2. The main function of the electrocoat layer is rust prevention. After the electrocoat layer is formed, robots spray the primer layer, whose main function is also rust prevention. This layer is commonly referred to as the primer. The primer layer also enhances adhesion to the next paint layer. Above the primer layer is the basecoat layer, whose main function is aesthetics. The various car colors we see are produced by the basecoat layer. The outermost layer is the clearcoat layer, a transparent paint that protects the basecoat layer and enhances the gloss of the car's paint surface. Most fine scratches also remain on the clearcoat layer.

How to Calculate Vehicle Depreciation Rate?

There are three methods to calculate vehicle depreciation rate: 1. Depreciation percentage = 2 / estimated useful life. 2. Depreciation amount = original value (remaining usable years / total sum of useful years). 3. Annual depreciation amount = original value / estimated useful life. Below are relevant details about depreciation: 1. Depreciation method: The straight-line method is recommended, firstly because it is simple and easy to implement, and secondly because it complies with the relevant provisions of the "Implementation Regulations of the Enterprise Income Tax Law of the People's Republic of China". Article 59 of these regulations clearly states that "depreciation calculated using the straight-line method for fixed assets is deductible". Article 60 further specifies the minimum depreciation period for fixed assets: "Transportation tools other than aircraft, trains, and ships, 4 years". 2. Electronic equipment and transportation tools other than trains and ships, as well as tools, furniture, etc. related to production and operation, have a depreciation period of 5 years, with a residual value ratio uniformly set at 5% of the original price. Therefore, according to tax law, passenger cars have a depreciation period of 5 years and a residual value rate of 5%. Even for used cars, their depreciation period is calculated as 5 years from the date of purchase.
