Car turn signals are up-right and down-left. Here is an introduction to car turn signals: Car Turn Signals: These are lights that serve to alert pedestrians or vehicles in front or behind when the car is turning. Car turn signals can be categorized by material into gas turn signals and LED turn signals, and by location into front turn signals, rear turn signals, and side turn signals. Principle: The lamp tube uses a xenon lamp tube, and the circuit is controlled by a microcontroller, enabling alternating left-right flashing without interruption. The flasher can be divided into three types based on its structure: resistance wire type, capacitor type, and electronic type. The resistance wire type can further be divided into thermal wire type (electrothermal) and vane type (bounce type), while the electronic type can be divided into hybrid type (with relay contacts and electronic components) and fully electronic type (without relay). For example, the bounce-type flasher operates on the principle of thermal expansion and contraction, using the heat effect of current to cause sudden movements in the spring strip, thereby connecting and disconnecting the contacts to achieve light flashing. Precautions for Using Turn Signals: If you observe a need to turn while driving, be sure to activate the turn signal about 10 seconds in advance to alert vehicles behind to take timely measures, such as slowing down or stopping, to avoid collisions or even rear-end accidents. However, it is also best not to activate the turn signal too far in advance, as this may cause visual fatigue for drivers behind, leading to "road rage." The timing should be carefully judged by the driver.

Where is the fog light switch on the Hyundai Verna?

The fog light switch on the Hyundai Verna is located on the inner side of the central part of the operation lever and is controlled by rotation. Turn it upwards once to turn on the front fog lights, and turn it twice to the rear fog light position, which means both front and rear fog lights are turned on simultaneously. Conversely, turn it back to turn them off. Here is some extended information about car fog lights: 1. When visibility is between 100-200m, fog lights must be turned on, the speed should not exceed 60km/h, and the distance from the vehicle in front should be more than 100m. 2. When visibility is between 50-100m, fog lights should be turned on, the speed should not exceed 40km/h, and the distance from the vehicle in front should be more than 50m. 3. When visibility is below 50m, the public security traffic management department will implement traffic control measures in accordance with regulations, including partial or full closure of highways.

Is the Passat's Transmission Dry or Wet?

In the Passat's dual-clutch transmission, the 1.4T model uses a dry transmission, while the 1.8T and 2.0T models use a wet transmission. Additional information: I. Wet dual-clutch transmission refers to a dual-clutch system where two multi-plate clutches, one large and one small, are mounted coaxially. 1. Advantages: It offers better regulation and excellent thermal properties, capable of transmitting higher torque; it enables quick and smooth gear shifts without interruption, and the oil helps dissipate heat at low speeds, preventing overheating. 2. Disadvantages: The wet dual-clutch structure is complex, relatively larger and heavier, with higher manufacturing costs compared to dry dual-clutch transmissions. Maintenance is also more time-consuming and labor-intensive, requiring regular coolant replacement. II. Dry dual-clutch transmission transmits torque through friction plates on the driven disc of the clutch. 1. Advantages: Highly efficient torque transmission; improved fuel economy; lighter weight. 2. Disadvantages: The dry dual-clutch has relatively inferior heat dissipation and can withstand lower torque.

Is the Tanyue's Engine Imported?

The Tanyue's engine is not imported; it is jointly produced. The Tanyue's engine is manufactured at Volkswagen's Dalian factory and utilizes Volkswagen Group's Konzern framework technology. The engine model for the Tanyue 2022 280TSI front-wheel-drive series is EA211-DJS, with a maximum power of 110kW and a maximum torque of 250N·m. The engine model for the Tanyue 2022 330TSI front-wheel-drive series is EA888-DPL, with a maximum power of 137kW and a maximum torque of 320Nm. For daily maintenance of the Tanyue's engine, the following methods can be used: Use lubricating oil of the appropriate quality grade. For gasoline engines, SD--SF grade gasoline engine oil should be selected based on the additional devices in the intake and exhaust systems and usage conditions. For diesel engines, CB--CD grade diesel engine oil should be selected based on mechanical load, with the selection standard not lower than the manufacturer's requirements. Regularly change the oil and oil filter. The quality of any grade of lubricating oil will deteriorate during use. After a certain mileage, performance degradation can cause various problems for the engine. To avoid malfunctions, change the oil regularly according to usage conditions and maintain an appropriate oil level. When oil passes through the fine pores of the filter, solid particles and viscous substances in the oil accumulate in the filter. If the filter becomes clogged and oil cannot pass through, the filter may burst or the safety valve may open, allowing oil to bypass through the bypass valve and carry contaminants back to the lubrication areas, accelerating engine wear and increasing internal contamination. Regularly clean the crankcase. During engine operation, high-pressure unburned gases, acids, moisture, sulfur, and nitrogen oxides from the combustion chamber enter the crankcase through the gap between the piston rings and cylinder walls, mixing with metal particles from component wear to form sludge. Small amounts remain suspended in the oil, while larger amounts precipitate, clogging filters and oil passages, making engine lubrication difficult and causing wear. Regularly use a radiator cleaner to clean the radiator. Removing rust and scale not only ensures the engine operates normally but also extends the overall lifespan of the radiator and engine.

What is the appropriate tire pressure for cars in winter?

Winter tire pressure should be around 2.6-2.7bar. According to the international GBT2978-2008 standard, the standard tire pressure is 2.4-2.5bar. Based on the principle of thermal expansion and contraction, winter tire pressure should be adjusted slightly higher than the standard tire pressure by about 0.2bar. Additional information: Other factors to consider for car tire pressure: 1. Seasonal factors: In winter, adjust the tire pressure slightly higher than the standard by about 0.2bar. In summer, use the lower limit of the standard tire pressure. If the car is parked outdoors in summer, the pressure can generally be about 0.1bar lower than the standard to avoid tire blowouts due to high temperatures. 2. Tire condition: For new tires, the pressure can be set slightly higher than the standard by about 0.2bar. For old tires, adjust the pressure slightly lower according to the standard. If the tires are severely worn, use the lower limit of the standard tire pressure.
