After a car stalls in water and is repaired, it may have the following impacts: 1. The engine may experience insufficient power and shaking issues; 2. The high-voltage ignition system may become damp or short-circuited due to water ingress; 3. Water may enter the exhaust pipe; 4. Residual moisture can prevent the brake discs and brake pads from fully engaging, leading to loss of braking power; 5. Debris can easily accumulate in the chassis gaps, causing rust; 6. Fog may form inside the headlights, affecting light transmission; 7. The wiring harness and circuit connections in the engine compartment may get wet and cause short circuits. The recommended steps to take after a car stalls in water are: 1. Do not attempt to restart the engine; push the car to a location where it does not obstruct traffic; 2. Close all doors and windows and wait for assistance.

How to Turn Off the Car's ECO Mode?

Switch the square button below the dashboard brightness adjustment on the left side of the dashboard to the ECO ON interface, then press and hold to turn off the ECO mode. Principle of ECO ECO primarily involves making comprehensive judgments and analyses during vehicle movement regarding factors that affect fuel consumption, such as automatic transmission gear position, engine speed, vehicle speed, braking, and transmission oil temperature. In a few cases, there is no need to activate ECO: 1. When the car is traveling at high speed (up to 100km/h), even if ECO is turned on, the vehicle's computer will prioritize speed, and the ECO mode will automatically deactivate. 2. When high torque output is required, such as when climbing a hill, the engine computer will prioritize ensuring and providing sufficient power to drive the vehicle, and the ECO mode will automatically deactivate.

Does the Volkswagen Bora Have a Particulate Filter?

The Volkswagen Bora is equipped with a particulate filter to meet the China VI emission standards. The particulate filter is a ceramic filter installed in the diesel engine's exhaust system, which captures particulate emissions before they enter the atmosphere. It can reduce soot emissions from diesel engines by more than 90%, and the captured particulate emissions are subsequently burned off during vehicle operation. Diesel engine pollution mainly comes from three sources—particulate emissions, hydrocarbons (HCx), nitrogen oxides (NOx), and sulfur. Among these, particulate emissions (soot) are mostly composed of tiny particles of carbon or carbide (smaller than 4-20μm). How the particulate filter works: The diesel particulate filter is coated with metals such as platinum, rhodium, and palladium. The black smoke containing carbon particles emitted by the diesel engine enters the exhaust particulate filter through a dedicated pipeline. After passing through the densely arranged bag-type filters inside, the carbon soot particles are adsorbed onto a filter made of metal fiber felt. When the adsorption of particles reaches a certain level, the burner at the end automatically ignites, burning off the adsorbed carbon soot particles and converting them into harmless carbon dioxide that is then released. To check whether the Volkswagen Bora has a particulate filter, you can use the following three methods: Check the and to see if the particulate filter function is mentioned. Check the label above the oil filler cap. If the oil cap clearly indicates 0W-20 grade oil, it means the vehicle is equipped with a particulate filter. Look at the exhaust pipe behind the three-way catalytic converter to see if there is an additional cylindrical section. If so, that is the particulate filter.
