I drove a BMW E60 for several years. When I first bought it, I thought I could play music using a USB drive, but it never responded when I plugged one in. After consulting the 4S store, I learned that the factory system didn't support USB input. This car was produced in the early 2000s, and its audio system only recognized CDs or the AUX port. Adding functionality required installing an additional module, such as a Bluetooth adapter. Nowadays, I use an AUX cable to connect my phone for music, which works smoothly. Trying to make the USB work was a waste of effort and could even risk damaging the wiring. New car owners should note that the USB ports in cars are generally for charging only—don't assume they can play media. Before making any modifications, research forums or consult a professional technician to save yourself from unnecessary trouble with a small investment.

Do Audis Leak Engine Oil?

Audi vehicles generally do not leak oil. However, if used for a long time and with poor sealing, oil leakage may occur. Reasons for Audi engine oil leakage: Oil drain plug leakage, external oil leakage, lubricant seepage at the engine oil pan drain bolt, failure of the engine oil pan gasket sealing performance leading to lubricant seepage; improper oil level or incorrect oil dipstick reading; blockage or component failure in the crankcase ventilation system, such as turbocharger failure. Engine oil leakage phenomenon: The engine is not a single unit; from top to bottom, it consists of the valve cover, cylinder head, cylinder block, and oil pan. These components are connected by bolts. Sealing gaskets are used between these parts, some of which are made of rubber. During normal operation, the engine operates at high temperatures, and the cylinder pressure is also very high. Rubber gaskets exposed to such high temperatures and pressures for extended periods can become brittle and hard, leading to reduced sealing performance. As a result, the engine may exhibit oil leakage.

What is the appropriate tire pressure for Mercedes-Benz in summer?

For Mercedes-Benz in summer, the recommended tire pressure is 2.0-2.3 bar for the front wheels and 2.3-2.5 bar for the rear wheels. Impact of temperature on tire pressure: High temperatures in summer definitely have an effect on tire pressure. Generally, in colder winter weather, the tire pressure is slightly higher than the standard value, while in summer, it is slightly lower. According to the principle of thermal expansion and contraction, the tire pressure in summer can be adjusted 0.1-0.2 lower than the normal value, and in winter, it can be adjusted 0.1-0.2 higher than the normal value. Here, it is necessary to operate according to the actual situation. Hazards of excessive tire pressure: Excessive tire pressure will reduce the friction and adhesion of the tires, affecting braking performance; it will cause steering wheel vibration and deviation, reducing driving comfort; it will accelerate the wear of the central tread pattern of the tire, shortening the tire's lifespan; it will increase the vibration of the car body, indirectly affecting the lifespan of other components; it will cause excessive stretching and deformation of the tire cords, reducing the elasticity of the tire body, and increasing the load on the car during driving.

How to Reset the Tire Pressure on the New Passat?

Tire pressure reset is an operation performed on the tire pressure monitoring system to reset it after addressing a tire pressure fault. Method for resetting tire pressure: First, turn on the ignition switch, then press and hold the tire pressure monitoring reset button until you hear a "ding" sound before releasing it. The tire pressure monitoring system will then store the current normal tire pressure data, automatically clear the previous data, and finally, the fault indicator on the dashboard will turn off, completing the tire pressure reset. There are generally three reasons for abnormal tire pressure: Abnormal tire pressure: The system typically alerts when the pressure is below 1.8 bar or above 3.0 bar. In such cases, tire inspection and pressure adjustment are necessary. Tire pressure monitoring not reset: After inflating the tires, if the tire pressure reset is not performed promptly, the tire pressure monitoring system will still record the old data, causing the tire pressure monitoring indicator to light up. In this case, simply perform a tire pressure reset. Damaged tire pressure sensor: The tire pressure sensor, which monitors tire pressure, is installed directly inside the tire and connected to the tire inflation port. If the sensor is damaged during driving, such as by hitting the tire, it can also cause the tire pressure fault light to illuminate. For sensor damage issues, the only solution is to replace it with a new component.
