Methods to check if the headlights are genuine OEM parts are as follows: 1. The quality of aftermarket headlights varies widely, and the edge transitions of the headlights cannot match the perfection of OEM headlights, often exhibiting many burrs. Additionally, the engraved characters and logos on the headlights tend to be blurry. 2. Due to insufficient manufacturing standards, aftermarket headlights often have significant tolerances, resulting in uneven gaps between the headlights and the car body after installation, with noticeable left-right deviations. 3. The lighting performance of aftermarket headlights is generally inferior, with slower response times and even uneven brightness between the left and right sides. Headlights come in two forms: high beam and low beam. Use low beam on urban roads with streetlights, and switch to high beam when driving on unlit roads or highways. When meeting another vehicle, switch from high beam to low beam.

Under What Circumstances Should Emergency Braking Be Applied?

When a vehicle is driving normally without adaptive cruise control, it can actively generate braking effect to decelerate the vehicle in case of sudden danger. The emergency braking system enhances safety in two ways: 1. By detecting critical situations early and warning the driver to avoid accidents; 2. By reducing collision speed and, in some cases, preparing the vehicle and restraint systems for impact to mitigate the severity of unavoidable collisions. Precautions for vehicle emergency braking: 1. Maintain sufficient distance from the vehicle ahead: It is essential to keep enough distance from the vehicle in front. Generally, maintain an 80-meter distance when driving at 80 km/h and a 120-meter distance at 120 km/h, with increased distance during special weather conditions like rain or snow. 2. Function: The emergency braking system is installed at the front of the vehicle and uses radar, cameras, and sensors to detect obstacles ahead. If an obstacle appears and the driver does not brake, the vehicle will take emergency braking measures to reduce the risk of collision.

What does nitrogen in cars mean?

Nitrogen is a diatomic gas with inactive chemical properties and very low audio conductivity, only about 1/5 of ordinary air. Therefore, using nitrogen can effectively reduce tire noise during driving, significantly improving driving quietness. More information about nitrogen in cars is as follows: Reducing the probability of tire blowouts: Compared with filling tires with ordinary air, high-purity nitrogen, because it is oxygen-free, moisture-free, and oil-free, has a much lower thermal expansion coefficient, which can effectively slow down the heat accumulation in tires, greatly improving tire safety and thus reducing the occurrence of tire blowouts. Reducing driving noise: Using nitrogen can effectively reduce tire noise during driving, significantly improving driving quietness. Extending tire service life: After using nitrogen, tire pressure becomes more stable, and the volume change of gas inside the tire is also smaller, which greatly reduces irregular tire friction, thereby invisibly increasing tire life. In addition, the aging of tire rubber is caused by the oxidation of oxygen molecules, which reduces the strength and elasticity of the rubber, resulting in a shortened tire lifespan.

What does Golf 230tsi mean?

230 refers to the torque category, corresponding to a torque of 225N·m; TSI is the abbreviation for Twincharged (dual charging = Turbocharger + Supercharger) Stratified-Injection; Golf 230TSI means that the model is equipped with a TSI engine with a torque category of 230 N·m. The following is an introduction to turbocharged engines: 1. Principle: A turbocharger is essentially an air compressor that increases intake air volume by compressing air. It utilizes the inertial impulse of the exhaust gas from the engine to drive the turbine in the turbine chamber, which in turn drives the coaxial impeller. The impeller compresses the air delivered from the air filter pipe, pressurizing it into the cylinder. 2. Power: When the engine speed increases, the exhaust gas discharge speed and turbine speed also increase synchronously, allowing the impeller to compress more air into the cylinder. The increased air pressure and density enable the combustion of more fuel. By correspondingly increasing the fuel amount and adjusting the engine speed, the output power of the engine can be enhanced.

What are the first maintenance time and mileage for Santana?

According to the regulations in the provided by the manufacturer, Santana's first maintenance (free) should be carried out within 5,000 kilometers, followed by the second maintenance (charged) within 10,000 kilometers. After that, maintenance should be performed every 10,000 kilometers. Things to note for the first maintenance: 1. Before the first maintenance: Fully understand whether the car has any other faults or questions, and record them. 2. Schedule an appointment in advance: A few days before the maintenance, call the 4S store to schedule the maintenance time. 3. Prepare the necessary documents: Bring the first maintenance card, invoice, maintenance manual, and other required documents (you can ask the 4S store for specific documents needed). 4. Organize the items in the car before maintenance: It is best to keep valuable small items at home or carry them with you, such as mobile phones, laptops, Bluetooth headphones, etc., to prevent loss.

Is a car tire temperature of 50 degrees normal?

A car tire temperature of 50 degrees is within the normal range. Tire temperature range: A tire temperature between 90-110 degrees Celsius is normal, and a tire temperature of 55 degrees is acceptable. The tire's insulation cover can generally keep the temperature within a controllable range. Additionally, excessively high tire temperatures are very dangerous. Prolonged contact with high-temperature road surfaces causes heat accumulation, rapidly degrading the mechanical properties of the tire rubber. On the other hand, due to thermal expansion, excessively high temperatures will increase tire pressure. When the tire strength is insufficient to withstand the pressure, a blowout becomes inevitable. Controlling driving speed: To prevent excessively high tire temperatures, controlling driving speed is essential. When a vehicle travels at high speed, most of the kinetic energy is absorbed and converted into heat, raising the tire temperature. This accelerates rubber aging and reduces the fatigue resistance of the cord layers, leading to early tire separation or blowouts. Therefore, limiting driving speed is crucial for controlling tire temperature.

How Many Points Are Deducted for Driving in Reverse Against Traffic?

Driving in reverse against traffic results in a deduction of 3 points and a fine. According to Article 35 of the 'Road Traffic Safety Law of the People's Republic of China': Motor vehicles and non-motor vehicles shall drive on the right side. Vehicles driving against traffic will be fined. Motor vehicles driving against traffic will be deducted 3 points and fined. Driving in reverse on highways will result in a deduction of 12 points and a fine. According to Order No. 123 of the Ministry of Public Security, the point deduction standards for vehicles driving against traffic are as follows: If a motor vehicle driver commits any of the following violations, 12 points will be deducted at once: Driving a motor vehicle in reverse, against traffic, or making a U-turn across the central divider on a highway. If a motor vehicle driver commits any of the following violations, 3 points will be deducted at once: Driving a motor vehicle to overtake or yield improperly, or driving against traffic. The penalty for driving against traffic as stipulated in Article 90 of the 'Road Traffic Safety Law': If a motor vehicle driver violates the road traffic safety laws and regulations regarding road traffic rules, a warning or a fine will be imposed. If there are other provisions in this law, penalties shall be imposed in accordance with those provisions.
