Open the driver's door, and below the dashboard (at the junction between the door and the car body, near the floor), there is a lever. Pull it outward with your hand to release the hood. There is also a latch at the front center of the hood; you can lift the hood by pinching it with two fingers. Below is detailed information about the engine hood and the Volkswagen Polo: 1. Engine Hood: The engine hood (also known as the engine cover) is one of the most noticeable body components and a part that buyers often inspect. The main requirements for the engine hood are heat insulation, sound insulation, lightweight, and high rigidity. 2. Volkswagen Polo: The Volkswagen Polo was introduced in 1975 and has long held the top position in sales of economical small cars in Germany, earning the nickname "Wonder Boy" of Volkswagen. The Polo features the distinctive U-shaped front grille design unique to the Volkswagen family brand, with dynamic and clean lines. The headlight assembly, based on a geometric trapezoidal shape and embedded in the front face, along with the internally staggered light configuration, fully expresses Volkswagen's unique and distinctive charm.

Can you step on the brake when hearing the straight-line driving command in Subject 3?

You cannot step on the brake when hearing the straight-line driving command in Subject 3. Before straight-line driving, ensure there are no obstacles ahead and maintain a distance of more than 100 meters from the vehicle in front. Only after the system indicates the end of straight-line driving should you apply the brake and perform other actions. Evaluation criteria for straight-line driving: Unstable direction control, inability to maintain the vehicle's straight-line movement (fail); Failure to take deceleration measures when encountering braking from the vehicle ahead (fail); Not observing the rear traffic situation via mirrors for more than 20 seconds (deduct 10 points); Unaware of the vehicle's speed (deduct 10 points); Failure to promptly detect road obstacles and take deceleration measures (deduct 10 points). Tips for straight-line driving: First, look straight ahead and pay attention to both sides, select a reference point, maintain straight-line driving, adjust the direction in time, and always be aware of various traffic situations ahead to detect and handle them promptly. Look far and near while holding the steering wheel straight. The driver should adjust the viewing distance ahead according to the speed changes. Operate the steering wheel smoothly and naturally with both hands, keeping them shoulder-width apart without applying too much force. When adjusting direction, turn early and slightly, with a balance between turning and returning, pulling with one hand and pushing with the other, coordinating both hands to maintain the vehicle's straight-line movement. Maintain a steady speed for straight-line driving.

VW50200 Oil Selection: 30 or 40?

In terms of oil viscosity, simply follow the specifications in the user manual. If 30-weight oil is recommended, using a higher viscosity 40-weight oil by mistake will definitely reduce the oil's fluidity, adversely affecting both fuel consumption and engine performance. More details about engine oil are as follows: 1. API Grades: Oils with an "S" prefix are specifically for gasoline engines, with quality grades ranging from SA to SN, totaling 12 levels. Diesel engine oils start with the letter "C," with grades including CA, CB, CC, CD, CE, CF, CF-4, CG-4, CH-4, CI-4, and CJ-4. Whether for gasoline or diesel vehicles, each higher letter grade indicates superior performance compared to the previous one. 2. Considerations When Choosing Oil: Avoid selecting oil with a lower viscosity than the original specification, as this will directly impair the oil's lubricating properties. Not only will it accelerate engine wear, but prolonged use may lead to severe issues like bearing failure, potentially resulting in complete engine failure.

What does the menu button in the car mean?

Menu refers to the multifunctional operation menu, which usually appears on the multifunction controls on the steering wheel and the central console controls. The following is a related introduction to Menu: 1. Operation method: After pressing the MENU button, you will enter the system's various function selection interfaces. Use the touch screen, buttons, or knobs to select operations. The lever that appears on the left side of the multifunction controls on the steering wheel is generally used for light adjustments. The MENU button that appears on the central console controls is mostly a sound effect setting button. Press it briefly and adjust it with the knob on the right to achieve the desired sound quality and tone. 2. Related parameters: Menu refers to the summary of the settings for the car audio's related parameters, including adjustments for treble, midrange, and bass of ordinary audio, adjustments for surround speakers, adjustments for left and right sound fields, as well as sound effect settings. It also includes adjustments unique to car audio, such as the sound field strength for the front and rear rows, and the selection of multiple audio sources.

Why does antifreeze overflow from the reservoir?

Antifreeze may overflow from the reservoir for the following reasons: 1. Damaged reservoir cap: Check if the reservoir cap is damaged. When the temperature inside the reservoir is high, antifreeze will leak out if the cap is damaged. 2. Overfilled antifreeze: If the antifreeze level exceeds the marked line on the reservoir, it may overflow during driving. No overflow will occur when the antifreeze level is appropriate. 3. Thermostat malfunction: A faulty thermostat can cause the engine temperature to rise too high. When the coolant cannot enter the engine water passages for major circulation due to high temperature, the antifreeze will undergo minor circulation in the radiator, leading to overflow.

How to Adjust the Steering Wheel?

Steering wheel adjustment methods are as follows: 1. Front and rear adjustment of the steering wheel: Adjust the length on the axis of the steering wheel. This allows drivers of different body types to adjust the distance between themselves and the steering wheel, ensuring both a comfortable legroom and a comfortable distance between the driver and the steering wheel. 2. Up and down adjustment of the steering wheel: Adjust the vertical distance of the steering wheel. This accommodates the needs of drivers of different body types for the vertical space between the steering wheel and themselves. It allows the driver to adjust the distance between the seat and the steering wheel, maintaining a comfortable sense of space for the legs.

How Many Liters of Transmission Fluid Are Needed for a Change?

Transmission fluid change requires 6-10 liters. The amount of transmission fluid needed for each change depends on the vehicle model and the replacement method. Here are the precautions for changing transmission fluid: 1. Proportion of new fluid: Generally, when changing transmission fluid, the old fluid is drained by removing the transmission pan screw and then new fluid is added. This method can only replace about 70% of the old fluid. For a complete change, a fluid exchange machine is needed, which can replace over 90% of the old fluid. 2. Replacement interval: Typically, automatic transmission fluid should be changed every two years or every 40,000 kilometers, while manual transmission fluid should be changed every 60,000 kilometers. 3. Viscosity selection: When changing transmission fluid, it is important to choose the right viscosity. If the viscosity is too high, it can cause overheating of friction surfaces and unnecessary power loss. If the viscosity is too low, centrifugal force may cause the fluid to be thrown off the gear surfaces, leading to oil seal leaks. This can result in insufficient lubrication on the gear surfaces, increasing wear and even causing sintering.
