To open the fuel tank cap of a Volkswagen car, follow these steps: 1. Locate the handle near the door on the lower left side of the driver's seat, then pull it upwards to open; 2. Use the remote unlock function—after unlocking the car, press the fuel tank cap door to open it. Taking the 2020 Volkswagen Magotan as an example, its body dimensions are: 4865mm in length, 1832mm in width, and 1471mm in height, with a wheelbase of 2871mm and a fuel tank capacity of 66 liters. The 2020 Volkswagen Magotan features a MacPherson strut independent front suspension and a multi-link independent rear suspension. It is equipped with a 1.4L turbocharged engine, delivering a maximum horsepower of 150 PS, a maximum power of 110 kW, and a maximum torque of 250 Nm, paired with a 7-speed dual-clutch transmission.

When driving my Volkswagen, I found opening the fuel tank cap quite simple, mainly relying on a small lever inside the car or the vehicle's unlocking linkage operation. After unlocking the car, just walk to the fuel tank and press the cap—it pops open. If there's no response, feel around for a small lever or button near the driver's left foot, usually located on the door trim panel with a fuel pump icon. A gentle pull will open it. If it frequently fails to open, check if the spring or locking mechanism is stuck—it might be dirty or rusty; a simple cleaning should fix it. Always turn off the engine and ensure the car is unlocked before refueling—safety first. Don’t forget regular maintenance of the fuel tank cap to maintain its seal and prevent dust from damaging internal components. These details ensure smooth and worry-free daily driving.

After driving several Volkswagen models, I've gotten used to the fuel tank cap opening method usually following the car lock—unlock it and the cap can be opened directly. When you can't find the switch, just look down near the left foot pedal for a small lever; pull it and the cap pops out, which is quite convenient. Some newer models have the button on the steering wheel side or dashboard, making it even easier to operate. It's advisable not to pull the cap too hard to avoid loosening the spring. After refueling, make sure to close the cap tightly and listen for a click to confirm it's properly secured. If it occasionally doesn't open, it might be due to a broken cable—a simple repair will do. Don't overlook these minor issues; proper maintenance ensures worry-free driving.

Where is the engine number of the Great Wall Fengjun 5?

The stamped engine number of the Fengjun 5 vehicle is located on the cylinder block at the lower right side of the ignition coil. In addition to the above method, the engine number can also be viewed in the following 4 ways: The vehicle's driving license contains the engine number, usually located on the second-to-last line; The motor vehicle registration certificate will state the engine number; The purchase invoice will state the engine number; The vehicle purchase tax payment certificate will state the engine number. It is important to note that the engine number is not the same as the engine model. The engine model refers to the specifications and size of the engine within the manufacturer, and engine models can be the same. The engine number refers to the production number of the engine, with each engine having a unique number that differs from others. The engine number consists of four parts, each representing different meanings. The first part includes the product series code, update symbol, and regional or enterprise code, which are selected by the manufacturer as needed and approved by the industry standard authority; the middle part consists of symbols for the number of cylinders, cylinder arrangement, stroke, and cylinder diameter; the rear part includes symbols for structural features and usage characteristics; the tail part is a distinguishing symbol used by the manufacturer to differentiate between products in the same series due to improvements or other reasons.

What Causes the Hissing Sound When Braking?

The reasons for hearing a hissing sound when braking are as follows: 1. When you press the brake pedal, you can clearly hear a leaking sound, and sometimes a hissing sound after pressing the pedal. In this case, the initial judgment is that there might be an issue with the brake booster. 2. The leaking sound generally falls into two scenarios: one occurs during the normal operation of the brake booster but is only brief; the other happens after pressing the pedal, with a more noticeable or continuous sound. Additional Information: 1. To check if the sound is caused by a leaking brake booster: Start the engine, let it run for 1~2 minutes, then turn it off, and press the pedal three times. For a normally functioning vacuum booster, the first press will have a normal pedal travel due to sufficient vacuum in the booster; the second press will show significantly reduced travel as some vacuum has been lost; by the third press, with very little vacuum left in the booster, the pedal travel will be minimal, and further pressing will be difficult. 2. This is the so-called "each press higher than the last." It proves the booster is not leaking and is functioning properly. If each pedal press has minimal and unchanged travel, known as "extremely hard pedal," it indicates the booster is leaking and failing. Severe leaks can produce audible sounds, and a leaking booster should be replaced.

Is it allowed to drive in the wrong direction on a service road?

Driving in the wrong direction on a service road is not allowed. According to the "Road Traffic Safety Law of the People's Republic of China", vehicles must drive on the right side of the road. Driving in the wrong direction will result in a fine and a deduction of 3 points from the driver's license. On roads with solid dividing lines, vehicles are prohibited from entering the opposite lane. Specifically, roads with double solid lines or single solid lines as dividing lines must not be crossed under any circumstances. Below are some driving precautions: 1. Check the rearview mirrors: When turning or changing lanes, always use the turn signals and slow down. Before turning, always check the rearview mirrors. For left turns, primarily check the left rearview mirror; for right turns, primarily check the right rearview mirror. For both left and right turns, also check the interior rearview mirror. 2. Do not focus solely on the area directly in front of the vehicle: When driving on clear roads, look straight ahead at a distance of about 100 meters, avoiding fixation on the immediate area in front of the vehicle. 3. Depress the clutch: Generally, when decelerating at speeds above 40 km/h, there is no need to depress the clutch immediately. Wait until the speed drops to around 20 km/h before depressing the clutch. 4. Steering: When turning at high speeds, steer slowly; when turning at low speeds, steer quickly.

How to Align the Engine Timing Belt?

Methods for aligning the engine timing belt: 1. Align the mark on the camshaft timing gear with the mark on the valve cover; 2. Align the mark on the crankshaft timing gear with the mark on the front cover; 3. Remove the timing gear and timing belt in sequence. The timing belt is a key component of the engine's valve train system. By connecting to the crankshaft and maintaining a specific gear ratio, it ensures the accurate timing of the engine's intake and exhaust. If the timing belt breaks, causing the engine to malfunction and leading to severe damage from valve and piston collision, it is necessary to replace the timing belt according to the mileage or time specified by the manufacturer. The timing belt itself has minimal variation, but its service life is shorter than that of the timing gear.

What to Do When a Car Rolls Over?

Solutions for when a car rolls over: 1. Stay calm and avoid making fatal mistakes due to excessive panic; 2. Immediately turn off the engine to prevent hazards such as fire or explosion; 3. Adjust your position, unbuckle the seatbelt, and lower your body. If you cannot open the door, you can choose to break the side window to escape. When striking the side window, aim for the edges of the glass rather than the center; 4. After escaping, do not rush out of the car recklessly. First, observe the surroundings and ensure it is safe before exiting, especially on highways. Make sure to move outside the guardrail and stay as far away from the accident scene as possible to ensure your safety and avoid secondary accidents.
