Audi A7 transmission failure with no reverse gear is a quality issue with the DSG transmission. Common transmission faults in the Audi A7: Shaking when shifting to D gear, and directly shifting to second gear after stopping and restarting. Lack of power when accelerating, skipping gears directly to fourth gear, missing odd or even gears. The dashboard indicates a transmission fault, the gear light turns on, there is a jerk when downshifting from second to first gear, the car does not move when shifting to reverse, requiring the engine to be turned off and restarted. The car does not move when shifting to D or R gear, and the gear display flashes. Failure to start. Unusual noises while driving. Many symptoms are related to these four major components: Clutch, wiring harness, valve body, and gear switch.

What does it mean when the anti-lock braking system is in the open state?

The anti-lock braking system being in the open state refers to the activation of the ABS anti-lock braking system when the brake pedal is fully depressed during emergency situations. At this time, the brake pedal may experience some vibrations and occasionally produce sounds. The ABS system does not require manual operation; it is automatically activated by the vehicle's computer. Overview of ABS: ABS is the abbreviation for the Anti-lock Braking System. Its function is to automatically control the braking force during vehicle braking, preventing the wheels from locking up and maintaining a state of rolling while slipping (with a slip ratio of about 20%), ensuring maximum adhesion between the wheels and the road surface. Reasons for the warning light: The ABS yellow warning light may illuminate due to faults in the wheel speed sensor, ABS control unit, CAN bus, or related circuits.

Should the Antifreeze Be Replaced or Topped Up?

It depends on the situation, as the antifreeze has a service life of approximately two years. If it has been more than two years, it is recommended to directly replace it with new antifreeze. If it has not yet reached two years, you can top it up appropriately. Below is relevant information about antifreeze: Composition: Antifreeze is mainly composed of ethylene glycol and water, meaning it is an aqueous solution of ethylene glycol with certain conductivity. Function: Antifreeze prevents the coolant from freezing and expanding in cold winter conditions when the vehicle is parked, which could crack the radiator or damage the engine cylinder block or head. Antifreeze is not just for winter use; it should be used all year round. Regardless of the color of the antifreeze, it should maintain a certain level of transparency. A cloudy product is not a good one.

The specific speed limit can be referred to according to the instructions on the highway or the prompts from the car navigation. Introduction to speed limits: Speed limits usually refer to the regulation of driving speed within a certain numerical range for a certain length of road. Purpose of speed limits: The main purpose is to pre-warn drivers to reasonably control the speed in the subsequent sections of the road ahead, prevent the danger of speeding, and ensure driving safety. Speed limits are an indispensable and also the most important part of road transport safety.

Do illegal cameras capture speeding?

Illegal cameras generally do not capture speeding; speed detection cameras are the ones that record whether a vehicle is speeding. Below is relevant information about speeding: Penalties for speeding: According to relevant regulations, if a motor vehicle exceeds the speed limit while driving on the road, corresponding penalties will be imposed. Exceeding the speed limit by less than 10% results in a warning, 20%-50% leads to a deduction of 6 points, and 50% or more results in a deduction of 12 points. Legal provisions on speeding: According to Article 42 of the Road Traffic Law, motor vehicles driving on the road must not exceed the maximum speed indicated by speed limit signs. On roads without speed limit signs, a safe speed should be maintained. When driving at night or on roads prone to danger, or under weather conditions such as sandstorms, hail, rain, snow, fog, or icy roads, the driving speed should be reduced.
