Last time I encountered the oil reminder on my Golf 7, had to sort it out to drive without annoyance. Usually, you need to turn off the engine and get out, then locate the reset button near the instrument panel and hold it down. Next, turn the key to the ON position, which means power is on but the engine isn’t started. Watch the instrument panel for changes, keep holding for a few seconds, and the warning light should usually go off. If nothing happens, it might be because the operation was too hasty or the button isn’t working properly—just try a couple more times. Don’t forget to check the dipstick first; low oil level can also trigger the reminder, so that’s not something to overlook. Changed the oil lately? Regular maintenance helps avoid frequent reminders. Simple steps, you can handle it yourself, no need to rush to the repair shop.

How Many Kilometers Can a Car Spare Tire Run?

Generally, it can run for about 300 kilometers. The distance traveled with a spare tire does not affect its performance, but the speed needs to be controlled. It is recommended to repair the tire as soon as possible, as the spare tire is only for temporary use. Related details are as follows: 1. Classification: Different vehicle models are equipped with different types of spare tires, generally categorized as full-size spare tires and non-full-size spare tires. A full-size spare tire, as the name suggests, has the same width and size as a regular tire, meaning it can be used as a standard tire. However, it should be noted that the wheel rim material of the spare tire may differ from that of the regular tire, but this does not affect its use. A non-full-size spare tire is narrower than a regular tire and has a much lower speed rating. 2. Full-size spare tire: A full-size spare tire has the same dimensions as a regular tire. For car owners who do not frequently drive long distances, it is not necessary to equip a full-size spare tire (unless the vehicle comes with one by default). Additionally, a full-size spare tire occupies a significant portion of the trunk space. If a tire gets punctured or blows out, the spare tire can be directly used for driving without any distance limitations. However, it is important to ensure that the tire bolts are tightened properly after replacement.

How is the warranty generally handled for used cars?

When purchasing a used car that is still under warranty, it is advisable to have maintenance and repairs done at a 4S shop to the greatest extent possible to protect your legal rights. This is because if the car is not serviced at an official 4S shop during the warranty period, the manufacturer may consider the owner to have forfeited the warranty. If quality issues arise during the warranty period, the manufacturer will not provide warranty coverage. Below is relevant information: 1. Warranty Period: Generally, the warranty period for ordinary family cars is two years. For urban commuting, the mileage within this period is unlikely to exceed 50,000 kilometers, and the probability of quality issues arising within this range is relatively low. This means that used cars within the warranty period are more worry-free to use. Once the mileage exceeds 60,000 kilometers, minor issues are more likely to occur, and the owner will then have to bear the repair costs. If the total mileage exceeds 60,000 kilometers during the warranty period, it is recommended that the owner conducts a comprehensive inspection at a 4S shop before the warranty expires to save on potential future costs. 2. Note: When purchasing a used car, if the vehicle is still under warranty, be sure to inquire in detail about the warranty terms and request the detailed maintenance manual from the previous owner to protect your legal rights to the greatest extent.

What to Do If a Tubeless Tire Leaks from the Sidewall?

Even after repairing a tubeless tire, it may still leak air. It's recommended to check the tire pressure approximately every two months. If the pressure is low, it needs to be refilled. Tubeless tires have high elasticity and wear resistance, along with good traction and heat dissipation performance. If the tire gets punctured, it can be repaired using specialized repair tools.
