The method to reset the maintenance reminder for the 2020 Passat is as follows: 1. Turn on the ignition; switch to the "Settings" interface using the multifunction steering wheel's navigation buttons, then press the "OK" button to enter settings. 2. Select "Maintenance" using the steering wheel's navigation buttons, and press the "OK" button to enter. 3. Move the cursor to select "Reset," then press the "OK" button to confirm. 4. A menu will appear asking "Are you sure you want to reset the maintenance cycle data?" Press the "OK" button again to confirm the reset. 5. Return to the main menu interface to check if the reset is complete.

Last time I reset my 2020 Passat after maintenance, it was actually quite simple. First, press the start button without stepping on the brake to power on, just enough to light up the dashboard. Then use the left and right buttons on the steering wheel to find the settings menu, and scroll up and down to the 'Maintenance' option. Once you enter, there's a reset button—just press confirm. After completing the process, turn off the power and restart the car, and that annoying wrench indicator on the dashboard will disappear. I recommend closing the driver's door properly during the operation to prevent the system from misjudging and shutting down. Before resetting, make sure you've changed the oil and three filters, otherwise resetting the data will mess up the timing for the next maintenance.

What are the differences between the Brilliance BMW 5 Series and the imported BMW 5 Series?

The biggest difference between the imported BMW 5 Series and the Brilliance BMW 5 Series is that the Brilliance BMW 5 Series has a lengthened body and wheelbase. The following are the differences between the imported BMW 5 Series and the Brilliance BMW 5 Series: 1. The Brilliance BMW 5 Series has a longer wheelbase, providing more rear-seat space, and the car's configurations have been increased. 2. The imported BMW and Brilliance BMW can be distinguished by the badges at the rear of the car—the Brilliance BMW has the words 'Brilliance BMW' on its rear. 3. The Brilliance BMW has a slightly higher chassis, while the imported BMW's chassis is a bit lower, as the imported BMW is more sport-oriented and designed with a sportier feel. 4. In terms of interior, the Brilliance BMW offers only one option, while the imported BMW provides two choices, catering to more diverse preferences. 5. The engine of the imported BMW 5 Series is purely imported from Germany, whereas many components of the Brilliance BMW 5 Series' engine are processed and procured domestically.

Why is there resistance when shifting gears in a car?

The reasons for resistance when shifting gears in a car are as follows: 1. Clutch issues: (1) A faulty clutch may result in insufficient clutch separation travel, leading to incomplete clutch separation and difficulty engaging gears. In such cases, it is recommended to adjust the separation travel at a repair shop. (2) Excessive self-locking force in the clutch's gear mechanism can cause difficulty in shifting in and out of gears. In this situation, it is advised to adjust the clutch cable at a repair shop. (3) The transmission plate assembly's drive plate may deform due to certain reasons, causing poor separation. It is recommended to replace it with a high-quality pressure plate that matches the original vehicle. 2. Transmission issues: (1) Transmission fluid needs to be replaced. To some extent, the gear oil in the transmission requires regular replacement. If not replaced in time, its lubrication effect will significantly decrease, greatly increasing the resistance when shifting gears, leading to unsmooth gear changes. (2) Shifting gears in a cold car often feels very stiff. After all, in colder temperatures, the viscosity of the gear oil in the transmission cannot reach its optimal state, resulting in poor lubrication and causing a jerky feeling when shifting gears. (3) Sometimes, difficulty in shifting gears is due to wear in the shifting mechanism's connections or hinge parts, causing the gear lever's position to be inconsistent with the actual gear position in the transmission.

Should the reference point be earlier or later when the seat is forward in Subject 2?

When the seat is forward, the reference point will be earlier. If the seat is adjusted higher, each operation should be performed a little earlier; conversely, if the seat is adjusted lower, each operation can be delayed slightly. During the learning of Subject 2, it is necessary to find a suitable angle for yourself. Before getting into the car, be sure to adjust the car seat and the angle of the rearview mirror. Fix a position each time, and adjust to your familiar position the next time you practice driving, so you won't be disturbed by other students' adjustments. Effects of the seat being too forward or too backward: If the seat is too forward, although the driver's field of vision is broadened, it will cause an uncomfortable driving experience, restricting the movement of legs and feet, making it difficult to flexibly control the brake, throttle, and clutch. It may also cause the driver's chest to press against the steering wheel, affecting the driver's ability to turn the steering wheel. If the seat is too backward, the driver's field of vision will be partially blocked by the engine hood, making it difficult to clearly see the road signs ahead. At the same time, the driver's legs and feet will also lack flexibility when controlling the brake, throttle, and clutch. Height of the seat: The adjustment of the seat height has a significant impact on the Subject 2 test. Tests such as hill start, right-angle turn, S-curve driving, reverse parking, and parallel parking all require timely observation. If the seat height is not adjusted properly, it will affect the driver's judgment to some extent.

What are the maintenance items at 50,000 kilometers?

The maintenance items at 50,000 kilometers include: replacing engine oil, oil filter, air filter, cabin air filter, fuel filter, spark plugs, belts, and inspecting the chassis, brake pads, brake discs, tires, etc. The maintenance intervals vary among different brands and models, which can be checked in the owner's manual. Common maintenance intervals are 6 months, 8 months, and 12 months. Car maintenance is a preventive measure that involves regular inspection, cleaning, replenishment, lubrication, adjustment, or replacement of certain components. It primarily covers the engine system, transmission system, air conditioning system, cooling system, fuel system, power steering system, etc.

Should the car air conditioning be set to internal or external circulation?

Whether to use internal or external circulation for car air conditioning depends on the situation. Use internal circulation for short trips and external circulation for long trips. Internal and external circulation in cars refer to: 1. Internal circulation: Internal circulation means the air conditioning system is closed to external air and only recirculates the air inside the car. 2. External circulation: External circulation means the car air conditioning system is open to external air and draws in outside air for circulation. Car air conditioning generally includes cooling devices, heating devices, and ventilation devices. This combined system makes full use of the limited space inside the car, has a simple structure, and is easy to operate, making it the internationally popular modern car air conditioning system.

Does Auto Hold Consume More Fuel or Save Fuel?

Auto Hold consumes more fuel. The advantages and disadvantages of Auto Hold: 1. Advantages: It allows the driver to avoid unnecessary vehicle sliding without the need for prolonged braking or activating the electronic parking brake. This function also prevents the vehicle from rolling backward when starting on a slope. When the vehicle intends to move forward, the electronic system detects the throttle pedal pressure and the clutch pedal travel (for manual transmission models) to determine whether to release the brake. 2. Disadvantages: Maintenance is relatively complex; it involves CAN-BUS and many electronic device issues; this function consumes more fuel.
