Is it necessary to replace brake pads at a 4S shop?

1 Answers

Replacing brake pads doesn't necessarily require going to a 4S shop; they can be replaced at auto repair shops. The thickness of new brake pads is approximately 13mm, and they gradually wear thinner with continuous friction during use. When the brake pad thickness is less than one-third of the original thickness, it's time to prepare for replacement. Pay attention to the small protrusions (about 3mm) at both ends of the brake pads - when they become flush with the pad surface, replacement is mandatory. Additionally, some vehicle models are equipped with brake pad sensors that will trigger a dashboard warning when the pads wear to a certain extent, indicating the need for replacement.

Which button is the defogger on the Volkswagen Tiguan?

The defogger button on the Volkswagen Tiguan features: a rectangle with three wavy lines with arrows above it. The defogger button is located on the center console. Working principle of the one-touch defogger in cars: 1. The car defogger is used to separate liquid droplets carried by the gas in the tower to ensure mass transfer efficiency, reduce valuable material loss, and improve the operation of the compressor after the tower. Most defoggers are installed at the top of the tower. It can effectively remove fog droplets of 3--5um. If a defogger is installed between the trays, it can not only ensure the mass transfer efficiency of the trays but also reduce the tray spacing. 2. Therefore, defoggers are generally used for gas-liquid separation and can also serve as air filters for gas separation. In addition, wire mesh can also be used as a buffer for various instruments in the instrumentation industry to prevent electronic shielding devices from electromagnetic interference.

The length of the Audi A4L refers to the distance between two vertical planes perpendicular to the vehicle's longitudinal symmetry plane and touching the outermost protruding parts at the front and rear of the car. The width refers to the distance between parallel planes to the vehicle's longitudinal symmetry plane and touching the outermost rigid fixed protruding parts on both sides of the vehicle. The height refers to the distance between the highest point of the vehicle and the supporting plane of the vehicle. The turbocharged engine of the Audi A4L has a maximum power of 185 kW and a maximum torque of 370 Nm, with a maximum horsepower of 252. It features direct fuel injection technology and uses an aluminum alloy cylinder head. This engine is paired with a 7-speed wet dual-clutch transmission. There are national regulations regarding vehicle dimensions. According to the national standard 'GB1589-89,' the total width of a vehicle does not include side mirrors. The limitation on vehicle width is to provide sufficient lateral clearance for overtaking between adjacent lanes. This means that, according to national standards, the significance of vehicle width data lies in ensuring enough space during overtaking to prevent accidents or situations where road markings are narrower than the vehicle's width. Additionally, national regulations stipulate that the total width of a vehicle must not exceed 2.5m to meet the requirements of public road usage.
