Removing tire bolts is counterclockwise; clockwise tightens, counterclockwise loosens. Small cars are all removed counterclockwise. Car tires are one of the important components of a vehicle, directly in contact with the road surface, working together with the car suspension to mitigate the impact received during driving, ensuring good ride comfort and smooth driving. Tires ensure good adhesion between the wheels and the road surface, improving the vehicle's traction, braking, and maneuverability, while bearing the weight of the car. The important role tires play in automobiles is increasingly being recognized. The first batch of car tire samples appeared in France in 1895, which were single-tube tires made of plain canvas, with tread rubber but no patterns.

How often must the tires on a Tiguan be replaced?

Different usage conditions, driving styles, and tire brands can all affect tire lifespan. Generally, a reasonable range is between 40,000 to 80,000 kilometers. Whether replacement is needed depends on specific circumstances. The following methods can help determine if tires need to be replaced: 1. Tread wear approaching the wear indicator: Any brand of tire will have a wear indicator at the bottom of the tread grooves. For passenger car tires, the wear indicator height is typically 1.6 millimeters (this is also the legally mandated minimum groove depth), while for load-bearing tires, it is 2.4 millimeters. 2. Tire damage such as cracks or bulges: Damage includes tread cracks, tread bulges, missing tread rubber, severe sidewall wear, or multiple punctures by foreign objects. Especially with bulges, there is a risk of sudden tire failure. If any such damage is found, it is advisable to visit a professional tire shop promptly for inspection and replacement. 3. Tire age expiration: Tires typically have a service life of about 3-5 years. Beyond this period, tires begin to age, primarily manifested as surface hardening and the appearance of cracks. Aged tires lose their elasticity, and continued use can lead to tread deformation, increasing the risk of a blowout.

Can Coolants with Different Freezing Points from the Same Brand Be Mixed?

Coolants with different freezing points from the same brand can be mixed. However, different brands of coolants may have varying production formulas. Mixing them may cause chemical reactions among the additives, leading to their ineffectiveness. How to Choose a Coolant: The basic indicators of a coolant are its freezing point and boiling point. Coolants available in the market come with freezing points such as -15°C, -25°C, -30°C, -40°C, etc. Generally, it is advisable to choose a coolant with a freezing point at least 10°C lower than the lowest temperature in your region. How to Determine If Coolant Is Low: Observe the coolant warning light on the dashboard. If it lights up, it is likely due to low coolant levels, though it could also be triggered by excessively high engine temperature. Check the coolant reservoir. If the fluid level is below the minimum mark (MIN), do not continue driving and promptly add coolant. Check the water level indicator on the coolant tank. The normal coolant level should be between the maximum and minimum marks. If the coolant is below the minimum mark, it indicates a shortage.
