Simply press the auto start-stop button (usually a circular arrow with the letter A), and the dashboard will display a message indicating the system is turned off. To reactivate it, press the button again. Here's an introduction to auto start-stop: The auto start-stop system automatically shuts off the engine when the vehicle comes to a temporary stop (such as at a red light) and restarts it when it's time to move forward. Below is some information about the Audi Q5: The Audi Q5L is a mid-size SUV launched by FAW-Volkswagen Audi, with dimensions of 4753mm in length, 1893mm in width, and 1659mm in height, and a wheelbase of 2908mm. It is equipped with a 2.0T turbocharged engine with a maximum power output of 140kw, paired with a 7-speed dual-clutch transmission.

My Q5L frequently activates the auto start-stop function at red lights during city driving, causing annoying vibrations from the engine restarting. Turning it off is simple: after starting the car, press the button marked with an 'A' or a car icon with an arrow located below the center console – the illuminated indicator means the system is paused. It's best to disable it in heavy traffic areas to avoid the discomfort of repeated restarts. Audi designed this feature for fuel savings, typically reducing consumption by 5-10%, but in urban driving, it may actually wear out the battery faster. Note that the system will automatically deactivate if the battery deteriorates.

Can the IZOA Daytime Running Lights Be Turned Off?

The IZOA daytime running lights cannot be turned off. Here are detailed details about daytime running lights: However, the daytime running lights will automatically turn off when the car headlights are turned on.

Their purpose is not to illuminate but to signal the presence of the vehicle to those ahead. They also serve an aesthetic function. Daytime running lights are not designed for nighttime use but to make the vehicle more noticeable during daytime driving. Not just the IZOA, but the daytime running lights on most vehicles cannot be turned off.

What is the ground clearance of the Levin?

" The ground clearance of the Levin is 105 millimeters. The ground clearance of the Levin refers to the distance between the lowest point (excluding the wheels) and the supporting plane, which indicates the vehicle's ability to pass over obstacles such as rocks and tree stumps without collision. A higher ground clearance for the Levin means better off-road capability, but if the ground clearance is too high, the stability at high speeds will decrease. The Levin was first designed in 2014, with dimensions of 4640 mm in length, 1780 mm in width, and 1455 mm in height, and a wheelbase of 2700 mm. Generally, the ground clearance for sedans ranges between 110 mm and 150 mm, while for SUVs, it ranges between 200 mm and 250 mm. However, the Levin's ground clearance is not static; it also depends on the load condition, so changes in ground clearance should be considered based on the Levin's load variations. When selecting a vehicle, ground clearance can be one of the reference factors. The choice should depend on the vehicle's intended use and the road conditions. For urban areas with well-maintained roads, a lower ground clearance can enhance stability and comfort. If the vehicle will frequently travel to remote areas or regions with poor road conditions, a higher ground clearance may be preferable to avoid scraping or damaging the undercarriage. "

How to Determine When Engine Oil Should Be Changed?

Here are the methods to determine when engine oil should be changed: 1. Observe with an oil test paper. Take a small amount of oil from the dipstick and drip it onto the oil test paper, then let it sit overnight, waiting for the oil to fully diffuse on the paper. The harder the edges between the oil ring, sediment ring, and diffusion ring, the more the oil performance has degraded. 2. Judge based on the driving feel after an oil change. Engine oil performance has a 'shelf life.' At a certain point, if you feel the power is 'sluggish' and acceleration is slower, it indicates the oil's 'shelf life' has been reached, and it's time to change the oil. Additionally, if you notice a significant improvement in power after changing the oil, it means the last oil change interval was a bit too long. Next time, you can consider changing the oil 500 kilometers earlier. After 1-2 times, you can find a more accurate oil change interval. A reminder to everyone: when changing the oil, it's best to replace the oil filter as well. The oil filter's role is to trap impurities in the oil. If not replaced in time, accumulated impurities can cause blockages. At best, it may lead to insufficient oil pressure and poor lubrication of mechanical parts; at worst, it can cause excessive engine wear.
