For the Q3 wiper controls, pulling the switch inward activates the front wipers, while pushing it outward activates the rear wiper. When the rear wiper is engaged, simply push the switch upward to turn it off. Relevant details are as follows: 1. In terms of exterior design, the domestic Q3 shares nearly identical styling with the imported version. 2. The interior features standard black leather seats and a black leather-wrapped steering wheel accented with silver chrome trim. 3. Powertrain options mirror the imported model - the 35TFSI comes with a 170hp 2.0T engine, while the 40TFSI gets a higher-output 211hp 2.0T unit.

On the right-hand stalk of the steering wheel, there's a dedicated rotary knob for controlling the rear wiper. Simply turn it to switch off. I remember my first time operating it - I mistakenly thought it would be complicated, but in reality, just twisting clockwise or pushing it to the off position does the trick. The design is quite user-friendly, preventing distracted driving. By the way, remember to regularly check that the washer nozzles aren't clogged, otherwise poor water spray will wear out the rubber blades. Don't force the wipers to operate when frozen in winter, as this can easily burn out the motor. In short, once you're familiar with its position, a quick flick stops it - developing this good habit can extend your wipers' lifespan.

After driving this car for a while, I found it's quite simple to turn off the rear wiper: there's a small rotary dial on the right-hand stalk - just give it a gentle twist to switch modes or turn it off. Once during rainy weather, I accidentally bumped it and got into a bit of a scramble, so now I keep it fixed in the neutral position. A reminder to everyone: leaving wipers on drains the battery, especially when the battery is aging and affects startup. Remember to turn them off when washing the car to avoid automatic activation and water wastage. Audi's design is quite thoughtful here, though new drivers might find it confusing at first - it becomes second nature after a few uses. Consulting the manual more often can save you a lot of trouble.

Locate the right stalk on the steering wheel with a rotary knob, simply turn it to the 'off' position. The steps are super easy: After starting the car, you don't need to look at the dashboard, just feel for that knob and give it a twist. No need to worry about mistakes, take it slow. A common mistake beginners make is pressing the wrong button, but Audi's layout is clear. It's recommended to practice on sunny days to get familiar with the tactile feedback without affecting visibility. Turning it off during car washes also protects the wiper blades from accidental activation and damage.

What is the fuel tank capacity of the Santana in liters?

2019 Leiling has a total of 14 models, among which the fuel tank capacity of the National V version is 55 liters, and that of the National VI version is 52.8 liters. These data are officially released. The fuel grade for the 2019 Santana is 92. The National V version has a fuel consumption of 5.5 to 5.6L per 100 kilometers, and a full tank can run for 982 to 1000km; the National VI version has a fuel consumption of 5.5 to 5.6L per 100 kilometers, and a full tank can run for 942 to 960km. During daily driving, it is necessary to pay attention to the remaining fuel in the tank at all times. Generally, the fuel level is observed through the fuel gauge inside the car. If there are no other issues, the fuel level will be accurately reflected on the gauge. The fuel gauge on the dashboard usually has 5 to 6 segments. Generally, when there are 2 segments left on the fuel gauge, it's time to refuel to avoid running out of fuel halfway. In the actual refueling process, the amount of fuel may exceed the calibrated capacity. This is because the fuel tank capacity marked by the car manufacturer is from the bottom of the tank to the safety limit, and there is still some space from the safety limit to the tank opening. This space is reserved to ensure that the fuel in the tank can expand when the temperature rises without overflowing the safety space of the tank. If the fuel is filled to the tank opening during refueling, the actual refueling amount may be larger than the calibrated fuel tank capacity.

How many kilometers can an engine still drive normally after slight water ingress?

It is best not to continue driving if the engine has slight water ingress. Here is the relevant information: 1. Filled with a large amount of water: When the cylinder is filled with a large amount of water, the engine crankshaft cannot rotate at all. Moreover, since water is incompressible, the piston has almost no space to move upward. At this point, even if the ignition switch is turned on, the starter cannot rotate, and naturally, there is no further damage to the engine. 2. Symptoms of water ingress in the engine: When there is water in the engine fuel or combustion chamber, the water is heated by the combustion heat in the cylinder and turns into steam, which is discharged from the exhaust pipe forming white smoke. If white smoke appears after the vehicle has been through water, it is highly likely that the engine has water ingress.

What causes the engine to make a humming noise and accelerate slowly when stepping on the throttle?

The reasons for the engine making a humming noise and accelerating slowly when stepping on the throttle are as follows: 1. Engine fuel pump issue: A damaged engine fuel pump leads to insufficient fuel supply. Even if the driver floors the throttle, the engine RPM increases, but the fuel injection volume remains low, resulting in reduced engine power output and naturally causing sluggish acceleration. 2. Valve timing issue: To improve fuel efficiency, modern engines use CVVD valve timing systems. However, if the CVVD hydraulic control system is damaged, the sealing ring leaks oil, or the CVVT malfunctions, the engine's intake and exhaust processes are affected, naturally reducing combustion efficiency and diminishing the engine's torque output.

What does the circle exclamation mark on the Qashqai dashboard mean?

Red exclamation mark (specifically a bracket circle with an exclamation mark in the middle) represents a warning for the braking system, mainly indicating a brake system malfunction or low brake fluid level. Solution: Immediate inspection and repair of the braking system is required to avoid accidents. Apart from the red exclamation mark indicating a brake system fault, other exclamation marks on the car are yellow, representing general faults, automatic transmission faults, abnormal tire pressure, and lighting faults. Below is a detailed analysis of these four situations: General Fault: A triangle with an exclamation mark inside. If this symbol lights up, it indicates a fault in the car's general performance, components, or functions. Common issues include parking sensor faults, fuel cut-off system intervention or faults, external light faults, engine oil pressure sensor faults, etc. It is necessary to visit a 4S shop for inspection to identify the source of the fault. Automatic Transmission Fault: A yellow gear with an exclamation mark inside. This is the automatic transmission fault warning light, indicating a fault in the transmission or transmission lubricant below the normal range. Transmission oil should be replaced promptly. Abnormal Tire Pressure: A horizontal line under a bracket with an exclamation mark in the middle. This represents the tire pressure monitoring warning light, which lights up when the car's tire pressure is too low. Check the car's tire pressure and restore it to the normal range. Lighting Fault: A yellow bulb with an exclamation mark. This is the lighting fault indicator, indicating a fault in one of the car's lights. Solution: Visit a 4S shop for inspection and repair as soon as possible, or conduct a self-inspection, focusing on commonly used bulbs such as turn signals, fog lights, and interior lighting to identify the problem.
