1.8T Tiguan cannot use 92-octane gasoline. The Tiguan recommends using 95-octane gasoline, and higher-quality gasoline with a higher octane rating can be used, but lower-octane 92 gasoline should not be used. If the engine uses lower-octane gasoline, it will cause a sharp rise in cylinder temperature, incomplete combustion of gasoline, and strong engine vibration, which can lead to damage to engine components. In terms of body dimensions, the Tiguan has a length, width, and height of 4506 mm, 1809 mm, and 1685 mm respectively, with a wheelbase of 2684 mm. In terms of power, the Tiguan is equipped with a turbocharged engine with a maximum horsepower of 160, a maximum power speed of 4500 to 6200 rpm, and a maximum torque speed of 1500 to 4500 rpm.

How to reset the tire pressure warning light on a BMW 5 Series?

The method to reset the tire pressure warning light on a BMW 5 Series is as follows: First, start the BMW 5 Series, open the display main menu, select the vehicle status option, enter the secondary menu to choose the tire settings option, then select the reset option on the display. After completing the tire pressure reset for the BMW 520, the tire pressure warning light will be cleared. Relevant information about the BMW 5 Series is as follows: 1. The BMW 5 Series comes with two packages: Luxury and M Sport, which differ in the design of the inner grille trim and front bumper. All models come standard with active air intake grilles. 2. Standard exterior features include LED headlights with electrically heated, folding, and memory exterior mirrors, an electric sunroof, and rain-sensing wipers. 3. The interior features two different steering wheels and threshold trims, as well as pedals. 4. All models come standard with a leather-wrapped steering wheel featuring electric four-way adjustment. 5. The 12.3-inch full LCD instrument panel can switch between three display modes, and comes standard with a 10.25-inch professional navigation system. The seats are made of Sensatec synthetic leather and feature high-grade Nappa leather with contrast stitching. 6. Safety features include six airbags, front and rear parking sensors, a rearview camera, and a vehicle stability program.

What is the reason for the ABS communication failure in Ford Transit?

Ford Transit ABS communication failure may be due to no current passing through the ABS pump. Check if there is a fault in the circuit. How ABS works: During braking, ABS quickly determines the wheel lock-up state based on the speed signals from each wheel speed sensor, closes the normally open input solenoid valve on the wheel that is starting to lock up, and keeps the braking force unchanged. If the wheel continues to lock up, the normally closed output solenoid valve is opened, and the braking pressure on that wheel rapidly decreases due to the direct connection to the brake fluid reservoir, preventing the wheel from completely locking up due to excessive braking force. This keeps the braking state at the optimal point (slip ratio S of 20%), achieving the best braking effect and the highest driving safety. Classification of ABS: ABS is mainly classified based on channels. In ABS, the brake pipelines that can independently adjust the braking pressure are called control channels. ABS control channels are divided into four-channel, three-channel, two-channel, and one-channel types. One-channel ABS: Also called single-channel ABS, it has a brake pressure regulator installed in the rear wheel brake master pipe and a wheel speed sensor installed on the rear axle differential (sometimes one on each rear wheel). Two-channel ABS: This type of ABS is difficult to balance in terms of directional stability, steering control, and braking efficiency, and is rarely used today. Three-channel ABS: It independently controls the two front wheels, while the two rear wheels are controlled together based on the low-select principle (i.e., both wheels are controlled by one channel to ensure the wheel with less adhesion does not lock up), also known as hybrid control. Four-channel ABS: It has four wheel speed sensors, with a brake pressure regulator installed in the pipelines leading to the four wheel brake cylinders for independent control, forming a four-channel control system.

What does the yellow triangle warning light with an exclamation mark indicate?

A triangle with an exclamation mark inside indicates a malfunction in the vehicle's general performance, components, or functions. Common causes include parking sensor failure, fuel cut-off system intervention or malfunction, external light failure, or engine oil pressure sensor failure. Solution: Visit a 4S shop for inspection to identify the source of the fault. The exclamation mark is a common fault indicator in vehicles. Besides the triangle with an exclamation mark, there are four other forms of exclamation mark warnings: a yellow gear with an exclamation mark inside, a red circle with parentheses and an exclamation mark in the middle, a yellow bracket with a horizontal line and an exclamation mark in the middle, and a yellow bulb with an exclamation mark. Below is a detailed analysis of these four scenarios: Automatic transmission fault: A yellow gear with an exclamation mark inside indicates an automatic transmission fault warning light, signaling a transmission malfunction or transmission fluid level below the normal range. Transmission fluid should be replaced promptly. Brake system fault: A circle with parentheses and an exclamation mark in the middle represents a brake system warning, typically indicating brake system failure or low brake fluid level. Immediate inspection of the brake system is required to avoid accidents. Tire pressure anomaly: A bracket with a horizontal line and an exclamation mark in the middle represents the tire pressure monitoring warning light. It illuminates when the tire pressure is too low. Check the tire pressure and restore it to the normal range. Lighting fault: A yellow bulb with an exclamation mark indicates a lighting fault warning light, signaling a malfunction in the vehicle's lights. Solution: Visit a 4S shop for inspection as soon as possible, or conduct a self-check focusing on commonly used bulbs such as turn signals, fog lights, and interior lighting to identify the issue.

What is a Horizontally Opposed Engine?

Horizontally opposed engine refers to an engine where the pistons are evenly distributed on both sides of the crankshaft and move horizontally left and right. The horizontally opposed engine reduces the overall height and length of the engine, lowers the center of gravity of the vehicle, making the driving more stable. The engine is installed on the central axis of the vehicle, and the torque generated by the pistons on both sides cancels each other out, greatly reducing the vibration during driving, allowing the engine speed to be significantly increased and noise to be reduced. The horizontally opposed engine is also known as an H-type engine and is a type of V-engine. Vehicles equipped with horizontally opposed engines include Subaru and Porsche.

Can China V Vehicles Still Be Transferred?

Whether a China V vehicle can be transferred depends on different situations. Below are the specific explanations for the transfer of China V vehicles: 1. Local transfer: The transfer of a used China V vehicle within the same locality is not affected. In cities and regions where the China VI emission standards have been implemented, used vehicles that do not meet the China VI emission standards can still be transferred normally. 2. Cross-region transfer: The cross-region transfer of a used China V vehicle depends on the local transfer-in standards. However, as the national policy gradually promotes the removal of restrictions on used vehicle transfers, most cities and regions have lowered their transfer-in standards.

Which country produces Guofeng tires?

Guofeng tires are produced in China. Tires are circular elastic rubber products installed on various vehicles or machinery to roll on the ground, mounted on metal rims. They support the vehicle body, cushion external impacts, ensure contact with the road surface, and maintain the vehicle's driving performance. The functions of tires are: 1. To bear the weight of the vehicle; 2. To ensure good adhesion between the wheels and the road surface; 3. To improve the vehicle's traction, braking, and off-road capability; 4. To directly contact the road surface and work with the vehicle suspension to mitigate shocks during driving, ensuring good ride comfort and smooth driving.
