I've been driving the Volkswagen Tharu for several years, and setting up the auto-locking feature is quite simple. After getting in the car, start the engine first, then find the vehicle settings menu on the central control screen. Once you're in, select the 'Comfort Functions' or 'Door Locks' option, where you should find a switch for 'Automatic Door Locking While Driving.' Just turn it on. Remember, this feature activates when your speed reaches about 20 km/h, automatically locking the doors. I find it quite practical, as it prevents forgetting to lock the doors while driving, making it much safer. Also, if you want to turn it off, just follow the same path and switch it off. During regular maintenance, you can check if these settings have changed to avoid any surprises.

As a young driver who frequently drives, I find the automatic locking feature of the Tharu quite convenient. The setup method involves using the buttons on the steering wheel to access the vehicle menu and navigate to the central locking option in the settings. There, you'll find a switch for automatic door locking—just tap it to enable. This process doesn't require much professional tools and can be done in a minute or two before daily driving. Its biggest advantage is the enhanced driving safety, especially in stop-and-go city traffic, preventing outsiders from accidentally pulling the door open. If you find it not working, remember to check if the engine isn't started or if the settings were mistakenly toggled. I also like to set up automatic unlocking, which opens the doors as soon as the car stops, making entry and exit smoother.

What is the function of the secondary air pump in the Besturn B50?

The secondary air pump in the Besturn B50 serves to inject air into the exhaust manifold after a cold engine start, thereby reducing emissions. Below is a detailed introduction to the secondary air system: 1. Function: The secondary air system is one of the external purification devices designed to reduce tailpipe emissions. It introduces additional air into the exhaust gases to increase oxygen content, allowing unburned harmful substances like carbon monoxide (CO) and hydrocarbons (HC) to undergo further combustion under high-temperature conditions. 2. Working Principle: When the engine is running, the crankshaft drives the air pump via a belt, generating a high-volume, low-pressure airflow that passes through a hose to a diverter valve. Under normal conditions, the diverter valve opens, directing the airflow through a one-way valve into the air injection manifold. The air injection manifold then sprays the airflow into the engine's exhaust ports or exhaust manifold, where it reacts with HC and CO in the exhaust gases, converting them further into CO2 and water vapor to minimize exhaust pollution.

Why is the fuel tank indicator flashing?

Generally, this issue is caused by a faulty fuel level sender contact. It is recommended to replace the fuel level sender. Here is the relevant information: Fuel Gauge: Drivers can determine whether refueling is needed based on the fuel gauge's display of the remaining fuel in the tank. If refueling is required, the fuel gauge can also accurately display the amount of fuel added each time. The fuel gauge does more than just serve as a scale; it can also more precisely and advancedly display the car's fuel consumption per kilometer, the size of the car's fuel consumption, and whether fuel is being used efficiently. The fuel gauge will also alert the driver to the remaining fuel's range. Precautions: If the driver does not refuel in time, once the fuel storage falls below a certain value, the car's fuel gauge will activate a fuel warning function. In addition, the car's fuel gauge can even display the odometer and store real-time measurement data for three months for data management.

Why does the Mercedes-Benz auto start-stop always show a yellow light?

If the auto start-stop of a Mercedes-Benz always shows a yellow light, it indicates insufficient battery charge, and the battery needs to be recharged. Here are the specific details about the auto start-stop function: 1. Auto Start-Stop Button: The auto start-stop button is located to the left of the cigarette lighter, with an icon of a circle containing the letter 'A' and 'OFF' below. Simply press the button to turn off the auto start-stop. 2. Default Activation: The auto start-stop is activated by default. Every time the vehicle is restarted, the auto start-stop will turn on. This button cannot permanently disable the function; you need to press it each time you start the vehicle to turn off the auto start-stop. 3. Function Purpose: The engine auto start-stop automatically shuts off the engine when the vehicle comes to a temporary stop (e.g., at a red light). When it's time to move again, the system automatically restarts the engine. This helps reduce unnecessary fuel consumption, lower emissions, and improve fuel economy.

What Causes the Friction Sound When a Car Turns?

When a car turns, the squeaking sound from the tires is caused by the friction between the rubber and the ground, which is a normal phenomenon. This occurs because the car's inertia moves it forward while turning, resulting in the sound of resistance between the tires and the ground. Here are some related explanations: Normal Noise: When car tires come into contact with the ground, they produce varying levels of noise due to factors such as the type or unevenness of the road, the car's speed, the type of tires, and the tire's air pressure. Therefore, no matter how perfect a car is, it cannot completely eliminate the noise generated between the tires and the ground during driving. Other Causes of Tire Noise: If the sound is a rattling noise, it may indicate an issue with the CV joint (constant velocity joint), which requires replacement. If the sound is a metallic scraping noise, it could be due to the brake shield rubbing against the brake pad. In this case, you can use a screwdriver to adjust the shield slightly.

What is the normal tire pressure for Mercedes-Benz in kPa?

According to the requirements and regulations of the international standard GBT2978-2008, the tire pressure for Mercedes-Benz should be between 2.2-2.5 bar. In winter, the tire pressure should be adjusted slightly higher by about 0.2 bar based on the standard tire pressure for the vehicle. In summer, the lower limit of the standard tire pressure is generally sufficient. For example, the lower limit for standard tires is 2.4 bar. If the car is often parked outdoors, the tire pressure can be about 0.1 bar lower than the standard to prevent tire blowouts due to high temperatures. Tire pressure reset is an operation performed on the tire pressure monitoring system after addressing a tire pressure fault, to reset the system. Tire pressure reset method: First, turn on the ignition switch, then press and hold the tire pressure monitoring reset button until you hear a "beep" sound before releasing it. The tire pressure monitoring system will then store the current normal tire pressure data, automatically clear the previous data, and finally, the warning light on the dashboard will turn off, indicating the completion of the tire pressure reset.

Should You Use Fog Lights or Hazard Lights in Heavy Rain?

Whether to use fog lights or hazard lights in rainy weather primarily depends on visibility. When visibility is less than 200 meters, turn on the fog lights along with regular lights; when visibility drops below 100 meters, activate the hazard warning flashers (also known as hazard lights). Function of fog lights: Front fog lights are designed to improve illumination in unclear road conditions ahead, providing a high-intensity scattered light source that penetrates thick fog to alert oncoming drivers. Rear fog lights are installed at the rear of the vehicle to ensure visibility for other road users behind in low-visibility conditions such as fog, snow, or heavy rain, emitting a stronger light than tail lights. Function of hazard warning flashers: Hazard warning flashers serve as signal lights to alert other vehicles and pedestrians that the vehicle is experiencing special circumstances. They should be activated in situations such as vehicle breakdowns on highways, high-speed driving, temporary parking on roads, towing a malfunctioning vehicle, encountering an emergency while driving, being involved in a traffic accident, or when performing special tasks.
