Automotive tire pressure gauges display the pressure in the inner black circle in BAR (indicating atmospheric pressure) or Pa (Pascal). Below is an introduction to tire pressure gauges: 1. Function of tire pressure gauges: A tire pressure gauge or automotive tire pressure gauge is a special type of pressure gauge designed specifically for measuring the pressure inside the tires of cars, trucks, bicycles, and other vehicles. Tire pressure gauges utilize pressure sensing technology, offering high measurement accuracy and a long service life. 2. Classification of tire pressure gauges: Pointer-type pressure gauges, where the elastic sensitive element inside the gauge undergoes elastic deformation under pressure, and the mechanical transmission amplification mechanism rotates the pointer to indicate the pressure value on the dial. The gauge also includes a zero-return device inside, which can keep the pointer at the indicated pressure value. Scale-type pressure gauges, where a piston with a scale moves under pressure and remains stable at a certain position, indicating the pressure value through the distance moved by the scale and the scale's markings.

Why Are Domestic Cars Cheaper?

Here are the specific reasons for the lower prices of domestic cars: 1. Production costs: Joint-venture cars rely on imported parts for many components, which significantly increases the manufacturing cost of the entire vehicle. In contrast, domestic brands produce and sell locally, allowing for better control over the overall vehicle cost. Additionally, the cost of many features, such as large central control screens, LCD instrument clusters, panoramic sunroofs, and leather seats, is not very high domestically. 2. Core technology: Domestic brands have a certain gap in core technology compared to joint-venture brands. For some key technologies, they still draw inspiration from joint-venture automakers. To reduce costs, some domestic brands may lower their investment in the three major components (engine, chassis, and transmission), opting for less cutting-edge technologies. 3. Tariffs: Imported cars and parts are subject to corresponding tariffs, which naturally increases the price of joint-venture models. Domestic cars, however, mostly use localized parts, making them relatively cheaper. Moreover, some domestic models can also benefit from policy incentives and subsidies.

Which Volkswagen model has a green body?

The Volkswagen model with a green body is the Volkswagen Scirocco. Engine types equipped in the Scirocco: The Scirocco is equipped with three types of engines: a 1.4T low-power, a 1.4T high-power, and a 2.0T low-power, with maximum outputs of 122, 160, and 211 horsepower respectively. The first can only be said to be sufficient, while the latter two are sporty enough. The car also has an R version, equipped with a 2.0T high-power engine, with a maximum output of 256 horsepower, accelerating from 0 to 100 km/h in just 5.82 seconds, delivering very strong power. Exterior design of the Scirocco: Unlike the Volkswagen Golf, which balances both family and sporty features, this car focuses more on a sporty feel. The entire front face is designed to be particularly flat, featuring a mesh grille design, very sharp headlights, and quite dynamic horizontal air intake designs on both sides.

What to Do When a Car Has Difficulty Starting in Winter?

Difficulty in cold starts during winter can be addressed by switching to engine oil suitable for winter use. Additional details are as follows: 1. Reasons for difficulty in cold starts during winter: The primary cause is the low temperature, which increases the viscosity of the engine oil, reduces its fluidity, raises engine resistance, and consequently makes starting the engine difficult. 2. Other considerations: Car owners should check the freezing point of the antifreeze. The liquid freezing point of the antifreeze should be 5 to 10°C lower than the lowest temperature in the vehicle's operating area. Note that the antifreeze level should generally be about 10 millimeters below the radiator filler cap. It's also essential to check the battery voltage. The method to check: With the engine at normal temperature and the starter in good condition, if the engine starts smoothly several times in a row, it indicates the battery is in good condition with normal voltage. If each start results in a gradual decrease in engine speed, or the engine barely starts, it suggests the battery voltage is low and requires charging.

What is the fuel consumption of the Dongfeng Fengguang 580?

The official combined fuel consumption of the Dongfeng Fengguang 580 is 7.2-7.6L/100km. The car stands out in terms of exterior design and interior. Exterior design of the car: The appearance of the Fengguang 580 is not stunning, nor does it have a high head-turning rate, but it is pleasing to the eye with nothing to fault. It includes fashionable elements, sporty designs, and a sense of premium quality, such as the matte silver roof rack, red brake calipers, and progressively lit turn signals. It is suitable for consumers who pursue fashion, reliability, affordability, but do not seek to stand out. Interior of the car: A large screen is a mainstream feature nowadays, and the Fengguang 580 is equipped with a highly integrated touchscreen. The most impressive feature is the air conditioning control buttons, which have a slight metallic feel with moderate damping, giving a sense of 'quality' with every press. The configuration has also been improved, featuring one-touch up/down for all four windows, rear air vents, automatic air conditioning, 360-degree panoramic imaging, and more.

What are the common faults of Jetta VA3?

Jetta VA3 common faults include battery failure, spark plug failure, and exhaust system failure. Battery problems: If the indicator light dims or even goes out at the moment of starting, it indicates that the vehicle's battery power is too low. In this case, do not attempt to start the engine repeatedly, as frequent starting will consume battery power faster. Generally, the service life of a battery is about 3 years. At this time, you need to contact rescue personnel immediately to help you jump-start the vehicle. Spark plug failure: Under low-temperature conditions, the spark plug electrode becomes too large, resulting in poor ignition capability. The atomization effect of the fuel injected by the fuel injector is also not ideal, which will cause poor ignition and easily lead to cylinder flooding and failure to start. At this time, rescue personnel need to remove the spark plug and dry the electrode to start the vehicle smoothly.
