My friend's Volkswagen also has this issue where the maintenance reminder keeps popping up. Actually, Volkswagen cars can be manually reset. For older models, turn the key to the ignition-on position but don't start the engine, then press and hold the 0.0 button on the right side of the dashboard until the screen shows a prompt before releasing it, and the maintenance data will be cleared. For newer models, use the buttons on the right side of the steering wheel to find the settings, go to the maintenance section, and select reset. However, it's important to note that clearing the reminder doesn't mean you can skip maintenance. You still need to change the oil and oil filter on time, or you risk damaging the engine, which would be a big loss. If you can't clear it yourself, just ask the service center to do it quickly during your maintenance visit.

Which Gear is the Automatic Transmission Gear?

Generally, the gears of an automatic transmission are divided into P, R, N, D, 2, 1, or L, etc. P (Parking): Used for parking, it utilizes a mechanical device to lock the car's gear. More information about car gears is as follows: 1. When the car needs to stay in a fixed position for a long time or before leaving the vehicle after parking, the hand brake should be pulled, and the lever should be pushed into the "P" position. It should be noted that the vehicle must be completely stopped before using the P gear, otherwise, the mechanical part of the automatic transmission may be damaged. 2. R (Reverse): Reverse gear, used for backing up the vehicle. Usually, the safety button on the lever must be pressed before the lever can be moved to the "R" gear. It should be noted that when the vehicle has not completely stopped, it is absolutely not allowed to force it into the "R" gear, otherwise, the transmission may be severely damaged.

Do Cars Still Need a Break-in Period?

Car needs a break-in period. The break-in period for a car is typically 1,000 to 3,000 kilometers, ensuring that mechanical components fully contact, friction, adapt, and settle. Below are the requirements for the break-in period: 1. Maintain smooth starts and avoid sudden acceleration. Also, do not let the engine speed exceed 3,000 RPM. 2. Before starting, the water temperature should reach at least 50 degrees Celsius, and start in a low gear. Shift to a higher gear after 1 kilometer, and keep the water temperature between 80 and 90 degrees Celsius while driving. 3. Shift gears promptly while driving. Avoid using a single gear for extended periods, and do not drive at low speeds in high gears or at high speeds in low gears. 4. Avoid overloading the vehicle. Especially during the break-in period, the lighter the load, the better, as excessive weight can damage the car. 5. Choose good road surfaces. Avoid excessive vibrations, impacts, or emergency braking. Use high-quality fuel and engine oil, and avoid using engine wear-resistant additives. 6. Avoid driving for excessively long periods.

What Causes the Car Key to Not Turn?

Car key not turning is caused by a locked steering wheel or a damaged key chip. Here are the detailed explanations: Steering Wheel Locked: The steering wheel lock is a simple anti-theft feature. When the vehicle's anti-theft system detects a potential theft risk, it locks the steering wheel to prevent theft. First, insert the key and press the brake, then turn the steering wheel left and right. Although the steering wheel is in a locked state, it can still be slightly rotated. While turning the steering wheel, twist the key to complete the unlocking process. Key Chip Damaged: The car remote and engine anti-theft system operate separately. If the key's anti-theft signal is lost, it cannot be unlocked. Use a decoder to read the anti-theft system's fault code to confirm if the anti-theft system is locked, or seek a professional technician to re-match the anti-theft key.

What is the normal temperature range for car air conditioning vents in ℃?

The temperature difference between the outlet vent and the return vent should be greater than 8℃ in cooling mode to be considered normal, and no less than 18℃ in heating mode to be normal. There is no specific value for the outlet vent temperature as it is related to the ambient temperature. The higher the ambient temperature, the higher the outlet vent temperature (in heating mode), and the lower the room temperature, the lower the outlet vent temperature (in cooling mode). Regarding the temperature standards for inlet and outlet vents: There is no definitive standard for the temperature difference between the inlet and outlet vents, as it varies depending on the brand, model, cooling capacity, and ambient temperature. Additionally, the standards differ for different groups of people, such as the elderly, children, and adults. Generally, the comfortable temperature for the human body ranges between 24℃ and 28℃, depending on personal preference. The inlet vent temperature is usually equivalent to the indoor temperature (the air conditioning inlet vent is located inside the unit).

Can alcohol be used for disinfection in a car?

Yes, but be careful not to smoke in the car after alcohol disinfection. The alcohol concentration should be 75% when using it for disinfection. Here is some additional information: 1. Definition of alcohol: Ethanol (structural formula CH3CH2OH or C2H5OH), commonly known as alcohol, is the most common monohydric alcohol. Under normal temperature and pressure, it is a flammable, volatile, colorless, and transparent liquid with low toxicity. The pure liquid cannot be consumed directly and has a special odor (slightly irritating), with a slightly sweet taste (accompanied by a pungent spiciness). It is flammable, and its vapor can form explosive mixtures with air. It can be miscible with water in any ratio and can also mix with chloroform, ether, methanol, acetone, and most other organic solvents. It is an isomer of dimethyl ether. 2. Principle of alcohol sterilization and disinfection: Alcohol is an organic compound, and its molecules have strong permeability, allowing them to penetrate the membrane on the surface of bacteria and enter their interior. This alters the molecular structure of the proteins that form the basis of bacterial life, causing protein denaturation (protein coagulation), thereby achieving a bactericidal effect.
