ETC can be installed upside down on the left side. As long as the ETC is attached to the middle or slightly to the left or right of the front windshield, it will not affect its functionality. Whether the ETC connector is installed upside down on the left or right side can be chosen according to the owner's preference, as it has no impact. The ETC device is a long-range sensing device, and it can function normally even if installed upside down or sideways, as long as it is placed correctly and can be recognized by the ETC probe. ETC is an electronic toll collection system that allows vehicles to pass through toll stations without stopping. It uses microwave short-range communication between the onboard electronic tag installed on the vehicle's windshield and the microwave antenna in the ETC lane at the toll station. This system processes transactions through computer networking technology and bank backend settlement, enabling vehicles to pay tolls without stopping at bridge or road toll stations.

Do All Volkswagen Cars Burn Engine Oil?

Not all Volkswagen cars burn engine oil. The issue primarily stems from the design flaws in Volkswagen's second-generation EA888 engine, which led to widespread oil burning in models equipped with this engine. Below are some solutions for addressing engine oil burning: 1. Replace Key Components: Excessive wear of engine components can lead to overly large gaps, causing excess oil to splash onto the cylinder walls. 2. Replace Valve Stem Seals: Improper assembly or failure of engine components can result in oil burning. 3. Replace Parts or Switch to High-Quality Engine Oil: Poor-quality engine repairs or inappropriate part selection are among the causes of oil burning.

Should Automatic Transmission Vehicles Be Turned Off Before Shifting to P Gear or Vice Versa?

Automatic transmission vehicles should be shifted to P gear before turning off the engine. The P gear, also known as the Parking gear, derives its name from the English word 'Park,' meaning to stop or park. When the driver shifts into P gear, it signals the vehicle's computer that the car is stationary and ready to be turned off. Reasons for shifting to P gear before turning off the engine: 1. Prevents sudden movement: In reality, the engine can be turned off in any gear. However, if turned off in D gear or R gear, the car may lurch forward or backward upon restarting, which is hazardous. If turned off in N gear, the car can still move under external force, posing potential risks; 2. Cuts off power transmission: P gear is similar to N gear in that both can cut off power transmission inside the transmission. However, P gear includes an additional locking mechanism that secures the output shaft, preventing both wheels from rotating in the same direction.
