Audi A3 using 92-octane gasoline will have an impact, as it will reduce power output. The Audi A3 should be filled with 95-octane gasoline. Correct method for selecting gasoline octane rating: Check the label inside the fuel tank cap. There is always a (recommended standard) sticker on the inside of the car's fuel tank cap, which is the most accurate and scientific standard calculated by engineers based on the engine's technical parameters. Hazards of using the wrong gasoline: If a high-compression engine uses low-octane gasoline, it will cause incomplete combustion, severe engine vibration, reduced power output, damage to engine components, increased fuel consumption, and poor driving performance. However, if a low-compression engine uses high-octane gasoline, it will result in delayed combustion, meaning the auto-ignition point is not reached at maximum compression, leading to incomplete combustion as well. This requires additional fuel injection to ensure power output, which not only offers no benefit to the engine but also increases fuel consumption.

What does 'Please repair the anti-theft system' mean?

Please repair the anti-theft system means that there is a fault in the vehicle's anti-theft system, and it is recommended to go to a repair shop for maintenance and inspection as soon as possible. The vehicle's electronic anti-theft system mainly consists of an electronically controlled remote or key, an electronic control circuit, an alarm device, and an actuator. Types of electronic anti-theft systems generally include key-controlled, remote-controlled, and alarm-based systems. The anti-theft system can remotely control the locking or unlocking of doors, that is, remotely control the activation or deactivation of the vehicle's anti-theft system. However, when the vehicle is stolen, the anti-theft system can only sound an alarm and does not have the function to prevent the vehicle from moving. Methods to deactivate the car's anti-theft system: Turn the key to the on position, wait until the anti-theft light flashes, then turn the key off; then turn it on again and wait for ten minutes until the anti-theft light flashes again, repeating this process three times. Alternatively, you can locate the wiring distribution of the anti-theft system and disconnect the input wire of the anti-theft device.
