Usage method of Volkswagen's automatic start-stop function: After each car ignition, as long as the conditions are met—doors are closed and the speed is greater than three kilometers per hour for about four seconds—the engine start-stop function will automatically activate without any operation required from the driver. The automatic engine start-stop system automatically shuts off the engine when the car comes to a temporary stop and restarts it when it's time to move forward again. In automatic transmission cars, the start-stop system is in normal working condition as soon as the car is started. When encountering a red light or stopping for other reasons, pressing the brake for about two seconds will automatically shut off the engine. To start moving again, simply release the brake and press the accelerator or gently turn the steering wheel, and the engine will restart. When parking, shifting to neutral, pulling the handbrake, and releasing the clutch will prompt the system to recognize these three actions and automatically shut off the engine. Pressing the clutch again will restart the engine.

Will Clay Bar Damage Car Paint?

When used correctly, clay bars will not damage car paint. They are composed of ultra-fine fibers and solid adhesives that undergo repeated intensive mixing, giving them characteristics of being fine and sticky. Clay bars should be used with clean water or lubricant. Before cleaning the car body, rinse off surface dust and dirt with water. Knead the clay bar into an appropriate size and shape, then evenly spray clean water or lubricant on both the area to be cleaned and the clay bar. Use your hand to guide the clay bar in orderly back-and-forth motions across the cleaning area. If the clay bar leaves marks on the car, it may be due to excessive pressure, insufficient lubrication, a dirty clay bar surface, poor wrapping ability, or large particles on the paint surface.

Does Adding a Rear Spoiler to a Car Require Registration?

Adding a rear spoiler to a car requires registration, as it is considered a modification to the vehicle's appearance. If the rear spoiler is installed without proper registration, the traffic management department of the public security bureau may impound the vehicle, confiscate the illegal modification, and order the vehicle to be restored to its original condition. After the modification is completed, the vehicle's registration certificate must be re-photographed and replaced to ensure that the photo on the certificate matches the modified vehicle, allowing it to pass annual inspections and routine safety checks. The primary function of a rear spoiler is to provide sufficient downforce, reducing lift at the rear of the vehicle, ensuring that the car remains firmly on the road and maintains stability during driving.
