It is not a quality issue. During daily vehicle use, conducting necessary travel inspections is crucial. The phenomenon of slow tire leakage is not uncommon, and the specific reasons for slow leakage can be summarized as follows: Tire valve area: The original vehicle comes with an external protective cap for the tire valve. If it is missing or falls off, dirt and debris can easily enter the valve core, accelerating internal seal aging, rust, etc., which can easily lead to air leakage. Therefore, in addition to taking preventive measures, regular inspections are also essential. Obvious punctures or penetrations on the tread: Obvious punctures or penetrations on the tread, such as those caused by foreign objects, can result in slow leakage when the object is not removed. Identifying this point allows for repair to stop the leakage.

Can the tires of the new Santana be replaced with larger ones?

Volkswagen's new Santana can be fitted with larger tires. The original tires are sized at 185/60R15, and they can be upgraded to 195/55R15, among others. Below are the precautions for tire usage: Severe tread wear: Tires must be discontinued when worn down to the wear limit indicator (i.e., when the tread depth is below 1.6 mm). Tread deformation: Tires with tread deformation or bead damage, those damaged due to driving underinflated, or those corroded by chemicals should not be used further. Safety factors: Tires with bulges must not be used. Other damages that affect tire safety should also lead to discontinuation of use.

Can Fuel Additives Be Directly Added to the Fuel Tank?

Yes. Here is a detailed introduction to fuel additives: 1. Function: Fuel additives, commonly known as the third generation of gasoline detergent (also referred to as gasoline detergent or fuel additive), are designed to address carbon deposit issues in the fuel system of electronically injected vehicles, quickly restoring the engine to optimal performance. They can also compensate for certain deficiencies in gasoline properties and provide new beneficial characteristics (such as improving atomization, reducing wear, protecting the engine, and lowering emissions). 2. Composition: Fuel additives mainly consist of more than ten components, including nano-molecules, cleaning activation factors, antioxidants, anti-corrosion agents, and demulsifiers. They are specifically developed to target harmful substances in fuel, such as sulfur, gum, and engine carbon deposits, thereby enhancing power, promoting combustion, and providing benefits like oxidation resistance, wear resistance, cleaning, dispersion, demulsification, anti-corrosion, and lubrication.

Which cylinder does the P0353 fault code refer to?

P0353 fault code refers to cylinder 1. The following are the differences between a three-cylinder engine and a four-cylinder engine: 1. Number of cylinders: A three-cylinder engine has three cylinders; a four-cylinder engine has four cylinders. 2. Structure: The three-cylinder engine has a simple structure, small size, light weight, and easy layout; the four-cylinder engine has a relatively complex structure. 3. Distribution: The three pistons of a three-cylinder engine cannot move up and down simultaneously, making it difficult to suppress vibration; in a four-cylinder engine, cylinders 1 and 4, and cylinders 2 and 3 move up and down simultaneously, which helps suppress vibration. 4. Fuel consumption: Due to its structural advantages, a three-cylinder car performs better in fuel consumption control; a four-cylinder car has a relatively complex structure and higher fuel consumption.
