I usually drive my Tiguan L around, and with the rear seats folded down, the trunk space is really spacious. The length is approximately 1.85 meters, and the width is about 1 meter, with slight variations depending on the model year. The surface is completely flat when folded, allowing me to lie down comfortably—I’m 1.8 meters tall and can stretch out fully. When camping, there’s plenty of room for sleeping bags and tents without feeling cramped. On weekend trips with the family, it easily fits four suitcases plus a bunch of picnic gear. Just remember to ensure the seat locks are securely fastened to prevent items from sliding. It’s also very convenient for moving small furniture or bicycles—the design really balances practicality. While the width isn’t the widest, smart stacking avoids bumps. Overall, the Tiguan L’s trunk expansion is super practical, especially for those who frequently go on road trips. It’s safe for cargo and saves both money and effort.

I've owned the Tiguan L for several years and found the dimensions when the trunk is folded down quite noteworthy. The length is approximately 1.8 to 1.9 meters, and the width is close to 1 meter, with slight variations possible between different models. This size is sufficient to accommodate a whole row of furniture boards or ski equipment – I've measured it several times. The folding process is simple, just pull a lever, and the rear seats fold down completely flat without height issues; even fitting a large refrigerator is no problem. However, it's advisable to lay down a protective mat before placing heavy items to prevent scratching the floor. From a practical standpoint, this is ideal for small business deliveries or hobbyists who collect items, as the square-shaped design minimizes dead space. It's recommended to regularly clear out clutter to maintain unobstructed space and avoid affecting the door opening angle. The Tiguan L's folded trunk isn't just spacious; it also challenges users to master layout techniques to maximize utility.

Can automatic transmission cars be shifted to neutral at traffic lights?

Automatic transmission cars can be shifted to neutral when waiting at a red light for more than 30 seconds; for less than 30 seconds, simply apply the brake. Below is relevant information: 1. Precautions for shifting gears in automatic transmission cars: (1) Do not press the accelerator pedal when shifting gears. (2) Do not immediately press the accelerator pedal hard after shifting into gear. (3) The vehicle can only be started in P or N gear. (4) The gear lever must be depressed with the brake to shift out of P gear. (5) Do not shift into N gear while driving to coast. (6) Do not push into P gear while the vehicle is moving. (7) When changing the direction of travel, switching between D and R gears must wait until the vehicle has come to a complete stop. (8) Placing the gear in N while driving prevents the oil pump from supplying oil normally for lubrication, which can cause the internal components of the transmission to overheat and become damaged. 2. Some vehicles now come with an "autohold" function, which is an automatic handbrake. After pressing the button to activate the function, the vehicle will automatically brake once it comes to a stop, eliminating the need to shift out of reverse or drive gears, and the vehicle remains in a parked state. However, not shifting into neutral still poses certain safety risks, such as the vehicle rapidly accelerating if the accelerator is accidentally pressed, which could lead to a collision. Additionally, the auto start-stop function is also suitable for use when waiting at a red light, as it saves fuel to some extent and prevents exhaust fumes from entering the vehicle when the engine is off.

Can You Still Drive If the Coolant Level Is Below the Minimum Mark in a New Car?

If the coolant level is below the minimum mark, you should not continue driving and must replenish the coolant promptly. If the temperature warning light on the dashboard illuminates, you need to add coolant immediately; otherwise, it may cause damage to the engine. The method for replacing coolant is as follows: Before completely replacing the coolant, conduct a thorough inspection to check for any signs of leaks or cracks in the pipes, with a particular focus on the five-way hose. Coolant flows through the five-way hose and is then distributed to different parts of the car to function. If there are any signs of coolant leakage in this section, replace the hose or reseal the connection as needed. Drain the old coolant, then flush the fluid channels with clean water. Add clean water to the coolant reservoir and continue filling it until water flows continuously through the engine cooling system. Then, start the engine and let it idle for 3 to 5 minutes to circulate the water. Initially, the water draining from the reservoir may appear slightly pinkish. Continue adding clean water until the drained water runs clear. Note: Remember to disconnect the heater hose and drain the water from the heater core. Approximately one hour after draining, add new coolant through the radiator hose. Then, pour another container of coolant into the coolant reservoir until it is nearly full. Start the engine and let it run for about 10 minutes. As some air is expelled from the cooling system, the coolant level will drop slightly. Top up the coolant again until it reaches the "MAXT" mark on the reservoir.

Is the Prado Air Suspension Useful?

The Prado air suspension is useful. A high-quality SUV must combine the comfort of a sedan with the off-road capability of an SUV, and the air suspension system is the best choice to achieve this goal. Here is more information about the air suspension system: 1. Generally, vehicles equipped with air-adjustable suspension will have ground clearance sensors near the front and rear wheels. Based on the output signals from these sensors, the vehicle's computer determines changes in body height and then controls the air compressor and exhaust valves to automatically compress or extend the springs, thereby lowering or raising the chassis ground clearance. This enhances high-speed stability or improves off-road capability on rough terrain. 2. The air suspension can adjust the stiffness of the car's chassis by controlling air pressure, so high-end models that prioritize both comfort and handling often opt for air suspension. This meets consumer demands in the most reasonable way. 3. Air suspension is also used in sports cars. However, in sports cars, its purpose is not to adjust comfort but to achieve the ultimate handling performance and address some daily inconveniences, such as raising the chassis height when crossing speed bumps. 4. The air suspension can be manually adjusted, and its definition varies depending on the vehicle model. Suspension adjustments are typically made by the driver via center console buttons, or the suspension adjusts automatically based on driving speed. Alternatively, the vehicle may adjust suspension stiffness based on data from related sensors, significantly improving handling and ride comfort.

How to Deal with Excessive Interior Noise in a Car?

There are four solutions to car noise: 1. Engine Noise: The vehicle engine is a source of noise, and its noise production varies with the engine speed. Solution: High-grade sound-absorbing foam materials can be installed on the engine hood, which not only suppresses vibrations caused by the hood but also absorbs a significant amount of noise, with noticeable effects. 2. Tire Noise: Tire noise is generated by the friction between the tires and the road surface during high-speed driving. The level of tire noise depends on road and vehicle conditions; worse road conditions result in louder tire noise. Additionally, there is a significant difference in tire noise between asphalt and concrete roads. Solution: Tire noise is a type of structural noise, primarily caused by vibrations. The most reasonable solution is vibration damping. Adding damping plates along with sound-absorbing mats can effectively address road and tire noise. 3. Wind Noise: Wind noise occurs when the pressure of the wind encountered during high-speed driving exceeds the sealing resistance of the car doors, allowing it to enter the interior. The faster the driving speed, the louder the wind noise. Solution: Install or replace door sealing strips. Since sealing strips are rubber products, they can age over time, leading to reduced sound insulation and sealing effectiveness. 4. Body Structure Noise: This is mainly influenced by two factors: the vibration transmission method of the body structure and the noise generated by metal components of the body under internal and external forces. Solution: This issue rarely occurs in new cars. It is important to check whether the screws of body components have become loose. Generally, tightening the screws or replacing the parts can resolve the problem.

What is the tire model of the Kia Cerato?

Dongfeng Yueda Kia Cerato uses Kumho tires, and the tire model is Kumho KH18-195/60R15 88H. Here is more information about this tire: 1. KH18 - refers to a series model of Kumho tires. 2. 195 - indicates that the tread width of the tire is 195mm. 3. 60 - represents the aspect ratio, meaning the section height is 60% of the width. 4. R - indicates that the tire is a radial tire. 5. 15 - shows the rim diameter is 15 inches. 6. 88 - stands for the load index 88, meaning the maximum load capacity of this tire is 560 kg. 7. H - represents the speed rating of 210 km/h. Tips for using tires: (1) When driving uphill, try to use inertia to drive, shift gears timely, and maintain appropriate reserve power for the vehicle. Do not wait until the car stops to start again, so as to reduce tire wear. (2) When turning, control the speed according to the curve conditions. Do not turn at high speed, otherwise the vehicle will generate a large centrifugal force, causing the cargo to tilt and the center of gravity to shift to one side, overloading and dragging a single tire, accelerating wear. At the same time, the tire may be laterally cut by the wheel rim, causing damage.

What is the original tire size of the Highlander?

The Highlander comes with two original tire size specifications: 235/65R18 and 235/55R20. In 235/65R18, the first number 235 represents the tire width of 235MM, 65 indicates the aspect ratio of the tire section is 65%, meaning the section height is 65% of the width, and 18 stands for the rim diameter of 18 inches. The letter "R" in the middle denotes a radial tire. In 235/55R20, the first number 235 represents the tire width of 235MM, 55 indicates the aspect ratio of the tire section is 55%, meaning the section height is 55% of the width, and 20 stands for the rim diameter of 20 inches. The letter "R" in the middle denotes a radial tire. The Elite trim of the Highlander is equipped with 18-inch aluminum alloy wheels, featuring a robust and simple five-spoke silver design, paired with Dunlop SP-SPOORT-MAXX-050 series tires. The Premium and Platinum trims use identical 20-inch aluminum alloy wheels with slender silver-gray multi-spoke combinations, matched with Yokohama BluEarth-XT series or Dunlop SP-SPOORTMAXX-050 series tires. If you wish to replace the tires yourself, follow these steps: Retrieve the spare tire and jack, place the jack under the vehicle frame near the tire to be replaced, ensuring the jack contacts the metal part of the frame; Raise the jack until it supports the car, making sure the jack is positioned under the vehicle and at a right angle to the ground; Remove the hubcap, loosen the nuts counterclockwise without fully removing them, just enough to eliminate resistance. Keeping the tire on the ground when first loosening the nuts ensures the nuts turn instead of the tire; Turn the nuts counterclockwise until they are loose, repeat this for all lug nuts, then remove them completely; Place the new tire on the hub, carefully aligning the tire rim with the wheel bolts, install the lug nuts, and hand-tighten them until all nuts are snug. The tire replacement is now complete. Besides the model, tires also display the following common data: Tire cord material: Indicated by Chinese pinyin, such as M-cotton cord, R-rayon cord, N-nylon cord, G-steel cord, ZG-steel radial cord tire. Speed rating: Indicates the maximum speed the tire can carry a specified load under specified conditions. Letters A to Z represent certified speed ratings from 4.8km/h to 300km/h. Common speed ratings include: Q: 160km/h; H: 210km/h; V: 240km/h; W: 270km/h; Y: 300km/h; Rim specification: Shows the rim size compatible with the tire for practical use, such as "Standard rim 5.00F".
