When driving on the highway without the need for strong acceleration, you can choose to use the D gear for normal driving. If you need to accelerate quickly or overtake, you can directly shift to the S gear and then shift back to the D gear after completing the overtaking. Additional information: 1. D gear: It can be called the "Drive gear" or "Forward gear." When in D gear, the driver only needs to control the speed by managing the throttle and brakes. 2. S gear: S stands for Sport, which translates to "sport" in Chinese, meaning more powerful performance. 3. Situations for using the S gear: Generally, the S gear is used for overtaking and climbing hills, where the vehicle's performance will be more effortless and precise. Long-term use of the S gear will noticeably increase fuel consumption, so when driving on the highway and needing to overtake, you can shift to the S gear. The best choice when going downhill is to shift to the S gear, especially on long and steep descents. Using the S gear downhill allows the engine to assist in braking, avoiding potential brake failure caused by continuous braking.

Which Tiguan L model comes with a particulate filter?

Tiguan L is equipped with a particulate filter. There are currently 6 available Tiguan L models, all of which come with particulate filters to meet China's National VI emission standards. A particulate filter is a ceramic filter installed in the diesel engine's emission system that captures particulate matter before it enters the atmosphere. It can reduce soot emissions from diesel engines by over 90%, and the captured particulate matter is subsequently burned off during vehicle operation. Working principle of particulate filter: The diesel particulate filter is coated with platinum, rhodium, and palladium. The black smoke containing carbon particles emitted by the diesel engine enters the particulate filter through a dedicated pipe. After passing through its densely arranged bag-type filter, the carbon particles are adsorbed onto the filter made of metal fiber felt. When the accumulated particles reach a certain level, the burner at the end automatically ignites to burn off the adsorbed carbon particles, converting them into harmless carbon dioxide. To check whether a Tiguan L has a particulate filter, you can use these 3 methods: Check the and to see if there's a particulate filter function. Additionally, carefully examine the fault codes in the manual to see if there's a "particulate filter" warning light indicator; Check the label on the oil filler cap. If it clearly specifies 0W-20 grade oil, it indicates the presence of a particulate filter; Look behind the three-way catalytic converter to see if there's an additional cylindrical section on the exhaust pipe. If present, that's the particulate filter.
