Why is the fuel gauge of the Magotan inaccurate?

The inaccuracy of the Magotan's fuel gauge can be attributed to two main reasons: If the fuel gauge suddenly drops to zero, it indicates a problem with the sensor. Secondly, if the fuel gauge suddenly rises, it is mainly due to the linkage between the fuel level sensor and the float being stuck, preventing the float from moving up and down normally. Below is some relevant information about the Magotan: Introduction: The Magotan is a heavyweight mid-to-high-end sedan, referred to as such because of its status in the global mid-to-high-end sedan market. Its power, handling, safety, and craftsmanship have been highly recognized by European counterparts, making it one of the most popular mid-to-high-end cars. However, the Magotan's performance in the domestic market is not outstanding, with the biggest issue being the automotive consumption environment. The decisive factor is consumer awareness, and changes in consumer awareness depend on the maturity of the automotive consumption market. When consumers no longer prioritize body size and the richness of configurations but instead focus on the essence such as technology, driving control, safety, and environmental protection, the Magotan will shine. In other words, the Magotan is looking forward to a rapid change in domestic consumption concepts. Design Features: The most distinctive feature of the Magotan's front face is its headlights. If it still used a square design, it might appear dull, but adding two semicircles on either side creates a completely different effect. Although the design is semicircular, it actually presents a visual effect of a full circle. The addition of this circle not only gives the Magotan's front face more layers but also adds sharpness and vitality to its 'gaze,' enhancing its presence.

Last time I noticed my Magotan's fuel gauge was inaccurate, it was really annoying. The cause could be a faulty fuel level sensor, where the float in the fuel tank gets stuck—like from overfilling or dust blockage. Poor wiring connections can also cause erratic readings, often due to aged wires or loose plugs. I tried some basic checks myself: first inspect if the related fuse in the fuse box is blown, and if that’s fine, observe whether the gauge needle is stuck at a certain position. This issue is quite common, with many reporting sudden full or empty readings, wasting fuel money and causing delays. From a safety perspective, an inaccurate gauge may misjudge fuel levels, risking a roadside breakdown. I recommend visiting a 4S shop for diagnostic tools, while also making it a habit to check fuel consumption before starting the car to prevent minor faults. Long-term, regular tank cleaning and sensor updates can extend its lifespan.

Is Car Coolant the Same as Antifreeze?

Coolant is not the same as antifreeze. Coolant is essentially water mixed with antifreeze. In simpler terms, coolant refers to any liquid that can lower the engine's temperature, which can be either water or antifreeze. Method for Replacing Antifreeze: Before completely replacing the antifreeze, conduct a thorough inspection to check for any signs of leakage or cracks in the pipes, with particular attention to the five-way hose. The five-way hose gets its name from having five connecting interfaces to various parts. Antifreeze flows through the five-way hose and is then distributed to different parts of the car to perform its function. If there is any antifreeze leakage in this section, replace the hose or resecure the connection as needed. Drain the old antifreeze, then flush the liquid channels with clean water. Add clean water to the antifreeze reservoir and continue filling the reservoir until clean water flows continuously through the engine cooling system. Start the engine and let it idle for 3 to 5 minutes to circulate the water. Initially, the water flowing out of the reservoir may have a faint pink tint. Keep adding clean water until the outflowing water is clear. Remember to remove the heater hose and drain all water from the heater core. After draining for about an hour, add the new antifreeze through the radiator hose to allow it to flow quickly into the radiator. Then, add another container of antifreeze to the antifreeze reservoir until it is nearly full. Start the engine and let it run for about 10 minutes. During this time, as some air is expelled from the cooling system, the fluid level will drop. Top up the antifreeze to the maximum mark "MAXT" on the reservoir.

What is the best location to install ETC?

For small cars, the ETC is generally installed in the upper middle part of the front windshield, while for large vehicles such as trucks and buses, it is installed in the lower middle part. The appropriate installation position should be no lower than 1.2 meters and no higher than 2.5 meters, with an installation angle between 30 and 90 degrees. For vehicles with factory-installed or aftermarket explosion-proof film, which may affect the signal transmission of the microwave communication link, the ETC should be installed in the microwave sunroof strip. ETC stands for Electronic Toll Collection. To apply for ETC, the vehicle owner needs to provide original and photocopies of their valid ID card and vehicle registration certificate. If the application is made by a proxy, the proxy's valid ID card is also required. The photocopy of the vehicle registration certificate should include the page with the most recent annual inspection seal. Additionally, a bank card under the owner's name for deducting highway tolls is required, and the owner must be between 18 and 60 years old. Here are some considerations for installing ETC: Do not obstruct the driver's view; it is best to install it behind the rearview mirror: Many car models have windshields with a large rearward tilt angle, which can reduce the driver's field of vision. If this is not considered during ETC installation, it can increase the driver's blind spots. Installing it behind the rearview mirror on the right side can help avoid obstructing the view. Do not interfere with charging: The ETC electronic tag consumes power but generally does not require charging or battery replacement because it has a solar panel on the back for self-charging. Therefore, during installation, avoid the blackened areas on the windshield and positions that may block the solar panel. Once installed, do not remove it arbitrarily: The button in the middle of the adhesive is an anti-removal lever connected to a switch. After installation, the windshield will press the anti-removal lever in. If the tag is removed arbitrarily, the lever will pop out and trigger the switch, locking the electronic tag and rendering it unusable. In such cases, you will need to visit an ETC service point to unlock it. This mechanism is designed to prevent multiple vehicles from sharing one device. When using ETC, note the following: The ETC transaction sensing range is 8 meters. To avoid paying for the vehicle in front due to its ETC device malfunction, maintain a distance of more than 10 meters from the vehicle ahead. The ETC lane recognition speed is 20 kilometers per hour; driving too fast may result in failure to read the vehicle's device information and cause charging failure. If using a debit card linked to ETC, insufficient balance may also lead to charging failure.
