I've been driving a Golf 7 for almost three years, and the tire pressure warning light comes on quite often. First, park the car and make sure all tire pressures are normal, usually around 230 kPa for the front tires and 220 kPa for the rear tires. Turn on the ignition but don't start the engine, then go to the CAR menu on the central control screen and navigate to the settings to find the tire pressure option. Select reset or save the current tire pressure, and press the SET button to confirm for a few seconds. The light should go off. If the light remains on, the sensor might be dirty or the battery could be low, requiring cleaning or replacement. It's a good habit to check the tire pressure monthly to prevent the light from coming on unnecessarily. Don't ignore this warning light—low tire pressure can lead to a blowout, which is very dangerous on the highway. Remember, the Golf 7's tire pressure system relies on sensors inside the wheels to detect pressure changes, and delaying repairs could affect other components. My experience is that after the light goes off, drive a short distance to verify if it stays off.

What are the reasons for brake noise?

Brake noise occurs due to: 1. When the brake discs rub against each other, they generate some metal powder, which can cause unusual sounds when braking. Such noises from the brake pads are normal phenomena; 2. Brake noise may indicate that the brake pads have worn to their limit, causing the brake warning shim to rub against the brake disc, resulting in a metal-on-metal sound. Solutions for brake noise: 1. Firmly pressing the brakes several times or performing emergency stops in an open area can improve the situation; 2. It is necessary to promptly replace the car's brake pads to prevent potential hazards.

Where is the water temperature gauge located on the MG ZS?

The water temperature gauge of the MG ZS is displayed on the right side of the central instrument panel. To check the water temperature gauge: Step on the brake pedal of the MG ZS, press the one-touch start button, and the instrument panel of the MG ZS will light up, indicating that the vehicle's power is fully connected. Meaning of the water temperature gauge: One mark on the MG ZS water temperature gauge represents 50 degrees Celsius, while four marks indicate the normal operating temperature of 90 degrees Celsius. Function of the water temperature gauge: The car water temperature gauge indicates whether the engine's cooling system is functioning properly. It consists of a pointer, scales, and the letters C and H, where C represents 60 degrees Celsius and the red H mark indicates 110 degrees Celsius. The primary function of the car water temperature gauge is to display the temperature of the coolant in the radiator while the engine is running, with the scale measured in degrees Celsius. When starting the engine, the water temperature gauge should read no lower than 50 degrees Celsius; during normal driving, the normal reading should be between 80-90 degrees Celsius.

How to Bleed Car Brakes?

Method for bleeding car brakes: Requires two people to complete. One person sits in the driver's seat and steps on the brake pedal to generate brake pressure. The other person works underneath the vehicle to release the air. The person pressing the brake pedal must firmly depress it and keep it pressed without releasing until the person underneath finishes bleeding the brakes. If a wheel's brake cylinder has issues or a new brake caliper is replaced, bleed that wheel's brakes. If the brake pedal still feels soft after bleeding, proceed to bleed the other wheels' brake cylinders. Always check and top up the brake fluid during the bleeding process.

Should a scratched car tire be repaired or replaced?

If a car tire is scratched, it is recommended to replace it promptly if the scratch is on the sidewall. The sidewall is relatively weak, and sidewall scratches are generally irreparable. Continuing to use such a tire poses a risk of blowout and safety hazards. Regular tire inspections are essential, especially before highway driving. In addition to checking tire pressure, inspect the sidewalls for cracks and monitor tread wear. Any potential hazards should be addressed immediately. From a usage perspective, the sidewall of a tire displays a four-digit code indicating the manufacturing date—the first two digits represent the week, and the last two digits represent the year. Typically, tires should not be used for more than 3 years or exceed 60,000 kilometers in mileage.
