17 Lavida has tire pressure monitoring, which can check the tire pressure status and adjust the tire pressure from the tire pressure monitoring on the car dashboard. The following is relevant information: 1. Tire pressure monitoring is the real-time automatic monitoring of tire pressure during driving, and it alerts the driver in case of tire leakage or low pressure to ensure driving safety. Data shows that tire blowouts account for up to 70% of fatal traffic accidents, and insufficient tire pressure is the leading cause of all factors that can lead to blowouts. This is not an exaggeration. Even if you do not choose a model with tire pressure monitoring, you should pay more attention to the vehicle's tires to avoid serious damage to both people and the car. 2. When the tire pressure is too high, it reduces the contact area between the tire and the ground, and the pressure the tire bears increases relatively, affecting the tire's grip. In addition, when the vehicle passes over bumps or uneven roads, there is not enough space inside the tire to absorb the shocks. Besides affecting driving stability and ride comfort, this also increases the impact on the suspension system, which can be harmful. At the same time, the risk of tire blowouts in high temperatures also increases accordingly.

As a former owner of a 2017 Lavida, I've personally experienced its tire pressure monitoring function. This is an indirect system that uses ABS sensors to monitor differences in wheel rotation speed to detect abnormal tire pressure. If the pressure is too low, a small yellow warning light illuminates on the dashboard, prompting immediate tire inspection. I find this particularly useful for daily commuting; I remember once when the light came on during highway driving, I pulled over at a service station to find the right rear tire underinflated - timely inflation helped avoid trouble. While it doesn't display specific numerical values, it's effective for safety. I'd advise new owners not to ignore this warning and to develop a monthly habit of manual checks with a tire pressure gauge; proper inflation saves fuel and extends tire life. The 2017 Lavida performs well in safety features, and this standard function has significantly reduced my driving anxiety.

Is the Passat transmission dry or wet?

Passat 2.0T adopts a wet dual-clutch, while the 1.4T uses a dry dual-clutch. The 1.4T model is equipped with DQ381, and the 2.0T uses DQ500. Both DQ381 and DQ500 are wet dual-clutch transmissions, with their main differences being the maximum torque they can withstand and slight variations in transmission logic. Below is some information about transmissions: 1. Transmission, also known as a gearbox, is an automotive component used to alter the speed and torque from the engine, and can fix or change the gear ratio between the output and input shafts. 2. The transmission consists of a gear transmission mechanism and a control mechanism, with some vehicles also including a power output mechanism. It can be categorized into stepped, continuously variable, and integrated transmissions, featuring functions such as enabling reverse driving, interrupting power transmission, and changing gear ratios.

Can You Drive in High Heels?

Driving in high heels is not allowed, as it can lead to improper control of the accelerator or brake pedal, compromising driving safety. During emergency braking, high heels are prone to twisting or even getting stuck in the brake pedal, which may result in brake failure or foot injuries. High heels can also interfere with the operation of the accelerator and brake pedals, increasing the risk of the foot slipping off the pedal due to excessive force. Below are the relevant penalties for driving in high heels: According to China's Road Traffic Safety Law, drivers are prohibited from operating a motor vehicle while wearing high heels. Violators will be issued a warning and fined 50 RMB. If an accident occurs, the fine increases to 200 RMB. Drivers who fail to maintain a safe distance or operate a vehicle while wearing high heels will bear full responsibility for any resulting accidents.

Can Fog Lights Be Added to a Car?

From a legal perspective, private modifications to cars are not allowed. It is best to go to a 4S shop or a certified modification shop with a warranty to install fog lights. Choose original fog lights that match the car model, and pay attention to the switch, relay, fuse, and circuit safety issues with aftermarket lights during installation. The following are related introductions to legal and illegal modifications: 1. Legal modifications: color changes, car audio, rims, brake discs, calipers, air suspension, changing the exhaust sound, etc. 2. Illegal modifications: engine modifications, installation of mirror-like reflective sun films, and detachable license plates are not permitted.

Is inserting a steel wool ball into a car's exhaust pipe harmful to the vehicle?

It is extremely harmful. It causes poor exhaust flow and reduces high-speed performance. Below are the reasons why inserting steel wool into a car's exhaust pipe is harmful: 1. The exhaust pipe is equipped with devices for vibration damping, noise reduction, easy installation, and extending the lifespan of the exhaust muffler system. It is installed between the engine exhaust manifold and the muffler, providing a flexible connection for the entire exhaust system. 2. It increases the cylinder pressure in the engine, reducing its service life. 3. The function of the exhaust pipe is to expel gases, as the engine naturally requires both intake and exhaust. 4. The combustion of the air-fuel mixture in the engine cylinders produces exhaust gases and noise, which are mitigated by the muffler and air purifier. 5. Some vehicles enhance horsepower by adding a turbocharger at the exhaust pipe location. This reduces exhaust resistance, and the exhaust pipe outlet is positioned at the bottom or rear of the vehicle.

What is the principle of a CVT transmission?

The principle of a CVT transmission is that the CVT uses a transmission belt and a variable-width pulley for power transmission. When the pulley changes its groove width, it correspondingly alters the contact radius of the driving wheel and the driven wheel on the transmission belt to achieve speed variation. The transmission belt is generally made of rubber belts, metal belts, or metal chains. Below is some information about CVT transmissions: CVT usually refers to a type of automotive transmission, also known as a continuously variable transmission. The difference between a CVT and a stepped transmission is that its gear ratio is not a series of discrete points but a continuous range of values, thereby achieving good fuel economy, power performance, and smooth driving, while also reducing emissions and costs. For example, it can vary continuously from 3.455 to 0.85. The structure of a CVT is simpler and more compact than that of a traditional transmission. It does not have the numerous gear pairs of a manual transmission or the complex planetary gear sets of an automatic transmission. It mainly relies on the primary and secondary pulleys and a metal belt to achieve continuously variable gear ratios.

What are the methods for cleaning carbon deposits?

The specific operation methods for cleaning carbon deposits are as follows: 1. Cleaning carbon deposits inside the engine: Before replacing the new engine oil, open the oil cap, add a cleaning agent, mix it with the old oil, and let the engine idle for about 10 minutes. 2. Cleaning carbon deposits in the intake system mainly refers to cleaning carbon deposits inside the intake tract and intake manifold. The purpose is to remove carbon deposits inside the intake system, increase the intake flow and speed, and reduce engine shaking and unstable idling. Prepare an intake system cleaner, use a dedicated cleaning device's liquid storage tank, connect it to the intake system, and use vacuum to draw the cleaner into the intake tract to achieve the cleaning purpose. 3. Remove the throttle body, use carburetor cleaner to clean the front and back of the throttle body, and wipe it dry with a clean cloth. It is recommended to clean the throttle body when the car has been used for one year or has traveled 20,000 kilometers. However, it should be noted that different car models have different cleaning cycles, which should be determined based on the car's own condition.
