Having driven the Volkswagen Magotan for a while, I've learned that adjusting the mirrors requires attention to safety. After parking the car, locate the control panel on the driver's side door, which has L and R buttons to select the left or right mirror, then use the directional arrows to adjust the angle up, down, left, or right. Never do this while driving—it's extremely dangerous. The best viewing angle is when you can just see a tiny bit of your car's rear end in the mirror, which minimizes blind spots and makes reversing or turning much safer. If the mirrors fog up in the rain, remember they have a heating function—just press a button to activate it. I make it a habit to glance at them before every drive to ensure they haven't moved, avoiding any issues on the road. When traveling with kids, extra care is needed, but it's a simple adjustment to make.

Dude, adjusting the rearview mirrors on the Magotan is super easy. First, sit in the driver's seat. There's a small panel near the door handle—press L for the left mirror or R for the right mirror, then use the arrow keys to fine-tune the position. Try it a few times, move around a bit, and find the right viewing angle. Generally, you should be able to see part of the rear wheel in the mirror. A heads-up: don't set it too high or too low, or it'll shake at high speeds. The heating function works great in snowy weather, so don't overlook it. New owners, no need to panic—just take it step by step. There's no rocket science here, and it's full of DIY fun.

Ladies, don't take adjusting your car mirrors lightly in daily driving. For the Volkswagen Magotan's door control area: simply select the left or right mirror button and slowly adjust the angle. Key point - after adjustment, sit upright to ensure you can see a bit of the car's outline in the mirror to reduce blind spots; it's safest to do this when parked. Rainy days bring fogging issues - just press the heating button to solve it. Before heading out with family, always check if the mirrors are securely adjusted. Small details make a big difference.

Is the License Plate Fee Mandatory to Pay at the 4S Store?

It is not mandatory. Below is the relevant information: Regulations: According to Article 9 of the "Consumer Rights and Interests Protection Law of the People's Republic of China," consumers have the right to independently choose goods or services. Consumers have the right to independently select the operators providing goods or services, choose the types of goods or methods of services, and decide whether to purchase any product or accept any service. When making independent choices, consumers have the right to compare, evaluate, and select. Considerations: Shop around—only by spending more time and effort to compare can you avoid being taken advantage of. If the license plate fee seems too high, try purchasing from another 4S store. If all stores charge a license plate fee, try to negotiate the fee down to the minimum possible. This is the only way to ensure you don’t overspend unnecessarily.

Why Does the Car Shake More When It Gets Hotter?

It may be caused by carbon deposits in the engine or throttle body. Below is a related introduction to the reasons for car shaking: 1. Ignition system issues: Check the working condition of the spark plugs, high-voltage wires, and ignition coils. Poor performance of the ignition system or faulty spark plug firing can also lead to this type of problem. The solution is to check if the spark plugs have excessive carbon buildup and replace them if necessary. 2. Unstable oil pressure: If you have already cleaned the engine carbon deposits, cleaned the throttle body, replaced the oil gasket and spark plugs, but still notice the car shaking at idle, check the fuel supply pressure and the intake pressure sensor. Abnormal fuel pump pressure or incorrect readings and poor performance of the intake pressure sensor can cause the car to shake. The solution is to check the oil pressure and replace the components if necessary.

Does Parking and Listening to Music Drain the Battery?

Parking and listening to music does drain the battery. Here are some related points about parking and listening to music: 1. Idling while listening to music: Although idling while listening to music does not use the battery's power, prolonged idling can easily lead to carbon buildup in the engine. Statistics show that idling while listening to music consumes an additional 2-3L of fuel per hour on average, costing around ten dollars per hour. 2. Precautions when turning off the car: Turn off the air conditioning, and check if the cigarette lighter is off when shutting down the engine. The cigarette lighter is not only used for lighting cigarettes but also powers devices like GPS, dash cams, and air purifiers. If these devices remain powered when the engine is off, it can cause "battery drain." It is advisable to avoid listening to music or using any electrical devices when the engine is off.
