Volkswagen CC's side mirrors can be set to auto-fold after locking the car through the vehicle's computer system, or manually folded by rotating the mirror adjustment switch knob to the folding position. Here is some related information about car side mirrors: Side mirror folding can be categorized into two types: One is manual folding, where the driver must reach out the window or step out of the car to fold the mirrors, which is both inconvenient and unsafe. This type of folding mirror is now rarely used. The other type is electric folding, which is more common. Its advantage is that the driver can fold the mirrors from inside the car, and the mirrors will automatically unfold when the vehicle is started. In terms of technological features: The 2016 version of the CC incorporates numerous advanced technological configurations such as lane change assist, MKE fatigue reminder, the internationally top-tier Dynaudio audio system, dynamic cornering lights, a 6.5-inch multimedia touchscreen, and the Easyopen trunk opening function. These features not only enhance driving safety but also provide user-friendly assistance, making the CC more upscale while ensuring a more convenient, comfortable, and safe ride.

I've been driving a Volkswagen CC for almost a year now. At first, I didn't know how to make the mirrors fold automatically when locking the car. Later, a friend taught me a little trick: just press the lock button on the remote key once, and the side mirrors will automatically fold in—provided this feature is enabled in the car's system. The specific method is to get in the car, turn on the ignition without starting the engine, find the 'Vehicle Settings' menu on the center console screen, then go to 'Exterior Lights' or 'Mirrors' options, and turn on 'Auto Fold When Locked.' This way, every time you lock the car, the mirrors obediently fold in, which is super convenient, especially when parking in tight roadside spots—no worries about them getting bumped. If it doesn’t respond, it might be because the setting was accidentally turned off or the battery is low; it’s best to check the system or charge it. This feature is worry-free and hassle-free, and I use it every day now.

What is the typical turning radius for a small car in meters?

The typical turning radius for a small car is 6 meters. Calculation method for turning radius: Based on the track of the outer center of the steering wheel, the minimum turning radius is calculated from the outermost point of the vehicle body; where R0—the minimum turning radius of the outer center track of the steering wheel; R—the minimum turning radius of the outermost point of the vehicle body, L—wheelbase, θmax—the maximum steering angle of the outer steering wheel, front track, front overhang length, overall vehicle width, kingpin center distance. The turning radius of the vehicle is defined as R, the distance from the vehicle's longitudinal symmetrical plane to the instantaneous turning center O. Here is an introduction to the turning radii of various types of vehicles: 1. Microcars have a turning radius of 4.50m. 2. Small cars have a turning radius of 6.00m. 3. Light vehicles have a turning radius of 6.50-8.00m. 4. Medium-sized vehicles generally have a turning radius of 8.00-12.00m. 5. Articulated vehicles generally have a turning radius of 10.50-12.50m. 6. Ordinary fire trucks have a turning radius of 9.00m. 7. Large fire trucks generally have a turning radius of 12.00m. 8. Aerial fire trucks have a turning radius of 12.00m. 9. Some special fire vehicles have a turning radius of 16.00-20.00m. Here are four points to note when turning a car: Use turn signals: You must turn on the turn signal when turning, otherwise the driver behind may misjudge, leading to unnecessary casualties. Avoid turning the steering wheel too sharply: When turning, reduce speed and avoid turning the steering wheel too sharply to prevent excessive centrifugal force causing the car to skid. Avoid coasting into turns: In neutral gear, the engine cannot control the rotation of the wheels, and the car moves by inertia. All braking and steering operations are significantly less effective, which can easily lead to safety hazards. Turn left in a wide arc: To avoid obstacles or collisions, try to turn as far as possible.

Are There True or False Questions in Subject One?

The written test for the driver's license, known as Subject One, includes true or false questions. According to the "Regulations on the Application and Use of Motor Vehicle Driver's Licenses," each question is worth 1 point, with a total score of 100. If you answer 11 questions incorrectly during the test, the system will automatically submit the test and end the exam. Subject One, also known as the theoretical test or driver's theory test, is part of the motor vehicle driver's license assessment. The test content includes the theoretical basis of driving, road safety laws and regulations, local regulations, and other related knowledge. The test is conducted on a computer, with a time limit of 45 minutes. Subject One test content: Regulations on driver's licenses and motor vehicle management; Road traffic conditions and regulations; Road traffic safety violations and penalties; Regulations on road traffic accident handling; Basic knowledge of motor vehicles; Local regulations; Knowledge of braking systems and safety devices for large and medium-sized passenger and freight vehicles; Specialized knowledge for wheeled self-propelled machinery, trams, and trolleybuses. Subject One test precautions: Candidates should pay attention to their attire during the test—no sandals are allowed. Electronic devices and bags are not permitted in the examination room. Bring your ID card and queue to enter the waiting hall. Observe the precautions and procedures on the large screen, and store personal belongings in a locker before entering the examination room. Upon entering, the identity verification station will assign a seat. After finding your seat, begin the test. Ensure the camera is aligned with you and adhere to exam discipline. If you fail the first time, you can retake the test on the same day. If you fail again, you must pay to reschedule. After the test, queue to collect your score report and sign it. Failure to sign will render the result invalid. There is no limit to the number of times you can reschedule Subject One. Each subject can be taken once, and if you fail, you can retake it once. If you do not take the retest or fail the retest, the current exam session ends, and you must reschedule. In contrast, Subject Two and Subject Three have only five attempts each. Subject Two and Subject Three tests can be rescheduled after ten days. If you fail the Subject Three safety and civilized driving knowledge test, the previously passed road driving skills test results remain valid. The driver's license test consists of three subjects: Subject One, Subject Two, and Subject Three. Subject One refers to the test on road traffic safety laws, regulations, and related knowledge. Subject Two refers to the field driving skills test. Subject Three is divided into two parts: road driving skills and safety and civilized driving knowledge. The safety and civilized driving knowledge test is conducted after Subject Three, so it is commonly referred to as Subject Four. However, the official term (as per the Ministry of Public Security Order No. 123) does not include Subject Four.

Does the Tharu consume engine oil?

"The Tharu engine may consume some engine oil, but this mainly applies to older models. Newer Tharu models experience relatively less oil consumption unless there are vehicle malfunctions. Engine oil naturally has a certain level of consumption, but excessive consumption indicates an oil burning issue. Many factors can influence oil consumption, such as fuel quality, driving conditions, driving habits, and maintenance practices. These factors can exacerbate the Tharu's oil consumption, leading to oil burning. "Oil burning" can be categorized into two scenarios. The first is cold-engine oil burning, where thick blue smoke is emitted from the exhaust pipe during the first startup each morning, disappearing after some time. The second is acceleration-induced oil burning, where large amounts of blue smoke are emitted from the exhaust pipe when the accelerator is pressed hard while driving or when the vehicle is idling. Methods to prevent oil burning in cars: Engine oil selection: For older vehicles with increased gaps between pistons and cylinder walls, thicker engine oil can be chosen to enhance sealing. Additionally, oil quality is crucial. Owners with the means should opt for qualified semi-synthetic or full-synthetic oils. Although maintenance costs may increase slightly, these oils have longer service lives, slower degradation, and better thermal stability and resistance to viscosity changes. Avoid aggressive driving in new cars: Generally, new cars today do not require deliberate break-in periods. However, during the first 2,000 kilometers, internal components such as the engine and transmission need time to achieve optimal coordination. During this period, avoid rough driving behaviors like flooring the accelerator or high RPMs (exceeding 4,000 RPM) to prevent oil burning caused by poor internal component coordination. Regular and timely maintenance: Engine oil operates in harsh conditions, and even full-synthetic oil cannot perform well if not changed regularly. Additionally, oil filters and air filters are crucial and should be replaced on schedule to prevent impurities from entering the cylinders and causing wear."

What is the actual fuel consumption of the Xingrui?

The comprehensive fuel consumption of the Xingrui is 6.7L/100km. There are currently 6 models of the Xingrui on sale: Elite, Luxury, Luxury+, Time-Space Edition Haoyue, Premium, Flagship, and Time-Space Edition Xingchen, all with a comprehensive fuel consumption of 6.7L/100km. The above figures are based on the NEDC comprehensive fuel consumption, which is the fuel consumption data measured under the NEDC test procedure. The actual fuel consumption is higher than this value, ranging from 6.7-9.0L/100km. Specific factors affecting a car's fuel consumption are as follows: Car weight: Larger and heavier cars tend to consume more fuel. Generally, a small family car with a 1.6L engine and a weight of about 1.2 tons has a fuel consumption of approximately 7.5 liters (calculated under full load), while an SUV weighing about 1.5 tons consumes around 8.5 liters. Different weights result in varying fuel consumption. Drag coefficient: Higher drag increases fuel consumption during driving. Cars with better aerodynamics have lower drag coefficients, leading to lower fuel consumption. Economical RPM: During driving, the engine has an optimal torque output point where fuel consumption is minimized. Generally, small-displacement cars reach this point at around 70 km/h, while larger-displacement cars achieve it at about 100 km/h. Maintaining speed within this economical RPM range ensures the least fuel consumption. Driving style: Aggressive driving behaviors such as sudden acceleration, frequent overtaking, and not easing off the throttle before stopping at traffic lights can increase fuel consumption.

Can I Take Subject Two Before Subject One?

After completing Subject One of the driver's license test, you cannot directly proceed to Subject Four. According to the "Regulations on the Application and Use of Motor Vehicle Driving Licenses," the examination sequence must follow Subject One, Subject Two, and Subject Three in order. Only after passing the previous subject can you proceed to the next one. After passing the road driving skills test of Subject Three, you are eligible to take the safe and civilized driving knowledge test. The driving test consists of three subjects: Subject One, Subject Two, and Subject Three, with Subject Three divided into two parts. Subject Four is the colloquial term for the safe and civilized driving knowledge test under Subject Three and is not a separate subject. Subject One refers to the test on road traffic safety laws, regulations, and related knowledge; Subject Two refers to the field driving skills test; and Subject Three includes the road driving skills test and the safe and civilized driving knowledge test. The safe and civilized driving knowledge test is conducted after Subject Three. Each subject can be taken once, and if you fail, you can retake it once. If you do not attend the retest or fail the retest, the current test session ends, and you must reschedule the test. However, for Subject Two and Subject Three, rescheduling must be done at least ten days later. If you fail the safe and civilized driving knowledge test of Subject Three, the previously passed road driving skills test results remain valid. During the validity period of the driving skills test permit, the number of rescheduled tests for Subject Two and the road driving skills test of Subject Three cannot exceed five times. If you fail the fifth rescheduled test, the results of other previously passed subjects will become invalid. Notes for Subject Four Test: Test Duration: The test lasts 30 minutes. If you make 12 mistakes (6 questions) during the test, the session will be terminated. Number of Questions: Depending on the type of driver's license, 50 questions are randomly selected from the corresponding Subject Four test bank. For car licenses, questions are selected from a pool of 800, while for large vehicle licenses, they are selected from 1,023 questions, with each question worth 2 points. Question Types: The test includes single-choice questions (including true/false questions) and multiple-choice questions. The first 45 questions are single-choice, and the last 5 are multiple-choice. The test also includes animated questions, image-based questions, scenario recognition questions, and text-based questions. Retest Notes: If you fail Subject Four, you only need to retake Subject Four. The driving school will schedule the retest, and there is no limit to the number of retakes. You can retake the test until you pass, and no additional fees are required for Subject Four retests. Subject Four Test Tips: Strengthen Weak Areas and Identify Mistakes: For marked questions, do not just memorize the correct answers. Instead, refer to regulations, textbooks, or reference materials to understand the reasons for the mistakes and internalize them. Categorize and Summarize Questions: Refer to the test bank analysis to categorize questions and identify similar ones. Many questions in the bank are similar and easily confused, so it's helpful to analyze them together. For example, traffic signs for walking, hiking, pedestrian crossings, and pedestrian warnings are visually similar and can be confusing. Grouping them during study can reduce errors. Use Memory Techniques: Many questions in the bank involve numbers. Summarizing these numbers can make them easier to remember.
