How to Open the Hood of a Volkswagen Car?
2 Answers
Press the switch button on the left side of the foot pedal. Here are the detailed steps: 1. First, sit in the driver's seat and locate the engine switch handle on the left side of the driver's seat. 2. When you hear a mechanical sound, pull the car's engine handle. 3. Observe whether the hood is open. If there is a noticeable gap, it means the hood is open. 4. Press the safety button to open the hood. Then lift the front hood, pull the car's lever, and secure the top latch into the hood. Note: If you want the hood to stay up, it must be supported by a hydraulic cylinder.
I've been driving for years, and opening the hood of a Volkswagen is quite simple. Usually, when sitting in the driver's seat, you can look down and see a small lever next to the pedals. Pull it with your finger until you hear a click, and the front of the hood will slightly lift. Then, step out to the front of the car, where there's a small safety latch under the hood. Gently push it in or lift it up, and the hood will open completely. The key is not to use excessive force—if it gets stuck, it might be because the lever wasn't pulled far enough or it's frozen in winter. Just wiggle it gently and try again. Safety first—after opening, take a moment to check the oil and coolant levels to avoid issues later. Don’t forget to press the hood firmly when closing it until you hear the locking sound, ensuring it doesn’t suddenly pop open while driving and cause trouble.
