I usually like to add some ambiance when driving, and the Passat's lighting is quite straightforward. Just look above the air conditioning panel under the center console for a small knob with a light symbol—turning it with your finger can switch on basic lights like the keyboard and footwell. If you want finer control over colors and zoning, you'll need to tap the center console screen—click the 'MENU' in the lower right corner to enter the menu, find the 'Vehicle Settings' icon, and look for an option like 'Interior Lighting' or 'Ambient Lighting.' Inside, you can choose from 30 colors. The mid-trim allows separate adjustments for doors and the dashboard, while the high-end trim even lets you customize footwell colors individually. Just remember not to fiddle with it while driving—safety first.

Can You Buy a Flood-Damaged New Car?

Legitimate 4S stores will not sell flood-damaged new cars. Here are the details: Legitimate 4S stores: 4S stores are relatively standardized and generally do not sell vehicles with potential hazards, but this is not absolute. Some 4S stores may internally sell flood-damaged cars. To some extent, flood-damaged cars can be repaired, but they pose significant safety risks and may have numerous hidden faults. Hazards of flood damage: Damage to the car's internal electronic control systems and various electronic components: For example, water-damaged vehicles can cause corrosion and rusting of the wiring, leading to sudden stalling or brake failure due to short circuits while driving, with unimaginable consequences. Engine damage: When the water level exceeds the engine's air intake, water can be sucked into the engine cylinders. Since water is incompressible, if the engine stalls due to water ingress and is restarted, the immense reverse force can bend the connecting rods and scrape against the engine cylinder walls, potentially rupturing the engine block instantly, resulting in severe engine damage.

Is It Normal for New Car Gaps to Be Asymmetrical?

No, it is not normal. If the gaps between the two rear doors of a newly purchased car are uneven, this is undoubtedly a product quality defect. When taking delivery of a new car, it is essential to inspect the exterior of the vehicle, check the engine compartment and undercarriage for any signs of repair, pay attention to the body gaps, open the doors to observe whether the paint inside and outside the car matches, and ensure the car windows are intact. Important considerations when taking delivery of a new car include documents such as the purchase invoice, certificate of conformity, vehicle type approval certificate, vehicle registration certificate, warranty certificate, owner's manual, and new vehicle delivery confirmation form. If the dealership is responsible for license plate registration and insurance, you should also obtain from the salesperson the original insurance policy, insurance invoice, compulsory traffic insurance invoice, vehicle and vessel tax invoice, purchase tax invoice, tax payment certificate, and compulsory insurance label. If any of these documents are missing, you should promptly request them from the dealership.

What is the actual fuel consumption of the 2.0 Camry?

2.0 Camry's actual fuel consumption is 5.41 liters/100km. Fuel consumption calculation formula: Fuel consumption per 100 kilometers = Fuel consumption (liters) ÷ Distance traveled (kilometers) × 100. For example, if a 1.6-liter car travels 400 kilometers and consumes 30 liters of fuel, then the fuel consumption per 100 kilometers = 30 ÷ 400 × 100 = 7.5 liters. Tips to reduce fuel consumption: Ensure correct tire pressure. The pressure should not be too high or too low, as both will increase fuel consumption. Regularly check tire pressure to avoid affecting driving fuel consumption. Avoid changing tire size. Wider tires increase resistance. Unless special requirements for good grip are needed, excessively wide tires will only increase fuel consumption.

What does the Model 3 Camp Mode mean?

Model 3 Camp Mode is a driving mode that maintains air circulation and a comfortable temperature inside the vehicle, while also keeping interior lighting, music playback, internet access, gaming, and charging functions active. It is suitable for situations where people remain inside the car. How to activate Camp Mode: Shift into Park, as Camp Mode settings can only be used when the vehicle is in Park. Then, adjust the temperature settings according to your comfort level, and finally click the fan icon and select "Keep Camp Mode." Precautions for using Camp Mode: To enable Camp Mode, the battery must have at least 20% charge remaining. Once Camp Mode is enabled, Sentry Mode and the vehicle alarm system will be disabled.
