The Volkswagen Touran is turbocharged. Turbocharging is a technology that uses the exhaust gas generated by internal combustion engine operation to drive an air compressor. The Volkswagen Touran is an MPV. Taking the Touran 2021 280TSI DSG Fashion Edition 7-seater as an example, its body dimensions are: length 4527 mm, width 1829 mm, height 1659 mm, wheelbase 2791 mm, and fuel tank capacity 60 liters.

I'm currently driving a Volkswagen Touran, which indeed comes with a turbocharged engine. Before purchasing, I did quite a bit of research. Turbocharging compresses air to make fuel combustion more efficient, delivering stronger power output, especially noticeable during acceleration or uphill driving. Compared to naturally aspirated engines, it's also slightly more fuel-efficient, with my car averaging around 8 liters per 100 km. However, it's worth noting that turbocharged systems can be a bit more delicate. For instance, after long-distance driving, don't rush to turn off the engine immediately—let it idle for a few minutes to cool down. Regular maintenance checks on turbo components can extend their lifespan. The ride is smooth, and the spacious cabin is perfect for family trips. Overall, I think this car offers great value for money, striking a good balance between power and fuel efficiency.

What Lights to Use When Driving in Fog?

When driving in fog, it is necessary to turn on the fog lights. Precautions for driving in heavy fog: 1. The appropriate lights must be turned on. Because visibility is poor when driving in fog, it is difficult to see the vehicles ahead without turning on the lights, which can easily lead to rear-end collisions or crashes. Extra caution is needed, especially in turning areas. According to relevant safety regulations, when driving in heavy fog, you should turn on the fog lights, hazard warning flashers, and low beams. Additionally, in foggy, rainy, or snowy weather, you should also turn on the low beams, clearance lights, and rear position lights. 2. Use the horn appropriately when driving in fog. Sometimes visibility is extremely poor, so in dangerous areas, honking the horn briefly can alert vehicles or pedestrians ahead to be cautious. Of course, avoid continuous honking to prevent noise pollution. 3. Slow down. Because distant vehicles are hard to see in foggy conditions, driving too fast may not leave enough time to brake if a vehicle suddenly appears. Also, maintain a safe following distance. In heavy fog, even the car directly ahead may be hard to see, increasing the risk of rear-end collisions.

What is the method for measuring the quality of an ABS sensor?

Operation method for testing the quality of an ABS sensor with a multimeter: Connect the red probe to Output and the black probe to GND, then bring an object close to the infrared receiver light to observe if the voltage changes normally. Measure the VCC voltage with power on to check if it is normal. If normal, it indicates that the car's ABS sensor is functioning properly. Otherwise, it is abnormal. Here is an introduction about ABS: 1. ABS automatically controls the braking force during car braking to prevent the wheels from locking up. 2. The ABS system consists of: ABS module, ABS master cylinder, oil pipes, wheel speed sensors, etc.

How to Fold the Rearview Mirror?

If it is an electric rearview mirror, generally pressing the automatic folding button will simultaneously fold and retract the rearview mirrors on both sides of the car; if it is a manual rearview mirror, it can only be folded manually. Here is some relevant information about rearview mirrors: 1. The car's rearview mirrors are located on the left and right sides of the car's front. They reflect the situation behind, beside, and below the car, allowing the driver to indirectly see these areas clearly, thereby expanding the driver's field of vision. 2. Rearview mirrors are categorized by installation position into exterior rearview mirrors, lower rearview mirrors, and interior rearview mirrors. By purpose, exterior rearview mirrors reflect the rear side of the car, lower rearview mirrors reflect the front lower part of the car, and interior rearview mirrors reflect the rear of the car and the interior situation.

How many kilometers should car brake pads be replaced?

Front brake pads should be replaced every 30,000 kilometers, while rear brake pads should be replaced every 60,000 kilometers. There might be slight variations for different vehicle models. Here are the methods to check brake pads: 1. Check thickness: New brake pads are typically about 1.5cm thick. When visual inspection shows the thickness has reduced to approximately 1/3 of the original (about 0.5cm), they should be replaced. 2. Listen for sounds: If you hear a metallic scraping sound when lightly applying the brakes, the brake pads must be replaced immediately.

Can the nail on the tire be left unremoved?

The nail on the tire cannot be left unremoved. You need to drive the vehicle to the repair shop at a lower speed as soon as possible, and then let the repair shop technician handle it. Here is some information about tires: 1. The general trend in tire development is the "three transformations," namely radialization, tubeless, and low-profile. Passenger car tires have already achieved these "three transformations," while truck tires are moving in this direction. 2. Car tires are one of the important components of a vehicle, directly in contact with the road surface. Together with the car suspension, they help to cushion the impact during driving, ensuring good ride comfort and smooth driving.

What does the triangle exclamation mark on the car dashboard indicate?

The triangle exclamation mark on the car dashboard is a general fault warning light. It may illuminate due to the following reasons: 1. Overheating of the dry dual-clutch transmission clutch; 2. Fuel cut-off system intervention or malfunction; 3. Parking sensor failure; 4. External light malfunction; 5. Engine oil pressure sensor failure; 6. Traction control system warning or malfunction. Solutions are as follows: 1. Check if all bulbs in various positions of the car are functioning normally, with special attention to brake lights and license plate lights. If any bulb is damaged, simply replace it. 2. If all bulbs are intact and functioning normally, inspect the wiring harness in the trunk for any damage. If damage is found, wrapping it with tape can resolve the issue.
