How to Use the Auto Hold Function in Volkswagen Magotan?
2 Answers
To use the Auto Hold function in the Volkswagen Magotan: Press the AUTOHOLD button to activate it. Auto Hold is an extension function of the electronic parking brake, controlled by the ESP component to apply the brakes. The Volkswagen Magotan is a mid-size car under FAW-Volkswagen, with body dimensions of 4865mm in length, 1832mm in width, and 1471mm in height, and a wheelbase of 2871mm. The Magotan is equipped with a 1.4T turbocharged engine, delivering a maximum horsepower of 150ps and a maximum power of 110kw, with a maximum power speed range of 5000 to 6000 rpm. It is paired with a 7-speed dual-clutch transmission.
As a long-time Magotan owner, I've mastered the three-step automatic hold process: 1. After starting the vehicle, directly press the 'A'-labeled button near the gear lever – a green indicator on the dashboard confirms successful activation. 2. At red lights, depress the brake pedal fully until the green parking symbol appears, then release the footbrake; the car remains rock-steady as if held by an invisible hand. 3. Gently tap the accelerator to disengage – ten times smoother than traditional handbrakes. Pro tip: It works equally well in rain or on slopes. Once during a 30-minute jam on an elevated bridge incline, my right foot got complete rest while preventing rollback.
