Some people have used caliper paint on rims. Advantages of caliper paint: Ordinary paint can be used for spraying, and it won't fade under normal use. However, when the brake pads wear out and need replacement, some paint may peel off during the operation. During the spraying process, be careful not to spray onto the brake discs. It's important to note that the paint itself is not designed for brake discs. Precautions for using caliper paint: If the calipers are only being repainted to change their color, it's generally acceptable since it doesn't affect the braking system; it's just a layer of high-temperature paint applied to the surface. Of course, this still depends on the local annual inspection standards.

How to Properly Use High Beams for Beginners

The correct methods for beginners to use high beams are: 1. Turn on high beams when driving on poorly lit roads at night, and switch to low beams early when encountering oncoming traffic; 2. When the traffic light turns green but the vehicle ahead doesn't move, flash the high beams once (note: avoid frequent flashing exceeding three times); 3. When encountering lane cutting situations on viaducts or highways, respond with a single flash to indicate agreement, while consecutive flashes mean refusal; 4. If noticing problems with vehicles ahead, flash high beams three times consecutively to alert the driver; 5. When pedestrians or non-motor vehicles run red lights or ride outside bicycle lanes, use alternating high and low beams for warning.

What is the fuel-saving mode of the Volkswagen Passat?

Economy Mode (ECO) is when the vehicle's computer controls the fuel injection volume of the cylinders and alters the usual gear-shifting logic. In simpler terms, the vehicle's full power is restrained. When the driver presses the accelerator, the power doesn't kick in immediately but gradually increases, making the car feel sluggish. Comfort Mode: The suspension performs more softly and linearly, the steering wheel response improves, and the vehicle's stability is further enhanced. This means better smoothness and comfort when going over speed bumps or when braking and accelerating, with more prominent cushioning. Passengers experience improved comfort, and the sensation of jerking is significantly reduced. Auto Mode: This mode intelligently adjusts various performance aspects and is suitable for more conventional drivers. It's like a pre-set camera—just press the shutter. The comfort level is good, and the throttle response is quick.
