A 5-month-old car is not considered an inventory car. Normally, cars that have been in stock for more than 6 months are classified as inventory cars. When purchasing a new car, pay attention to the following: 1. Check if the rubber parts show signs of aging. Focus on the wipers, engine belts, tires, and other components. 2. Check if the battery has any issues. Modern batteries often have a green light indicating normal status and a gray light indicating an issue. You can test the battery by turning off the engine and turning on high-power-consuming devices like the high beams for about 10 minutes. 3. Start the engine and check for any abnormal operation. 4. The paint of an inventory car is often not shiny, so you can polish and wax it after receiving the car. 5. Check the specific manufacturing date of the vehicle. The engine usually has markings indicating the year and month of production.

Does the Volkswagen Dry Dual-Clutch Transmission Require Transmission Fluid Replacement?

Volkswagen dry dual-clutch transmissions do require fluid replacement. Here are some details about Volkswagen transmissions: 1. Essentially, Volkswagen's DSG dual-clutch automatic transmission is a manual transmission equipped with dual clutch plates and a shift mechanism. Compared to AT transmissions, the transmission fluid can be replaced relatively later. 2. In a sealed transmission, automatic transmission fluid not only serves a lubricating function but also provides the necessary oil pressure for the operation of the DSG's shift valve body and the AT transmission's torque converter. Contamination or deterioration of the transmission fluid can lead to unstable oil pressure, and prolonged driving under such conditions can cause damage to the transmission.
