Where is the engine number of the Volkswagen Tharu located?

The engine number of the Volkswagen Tharu is located in the middle of the left side of the engine, below the spark plug of the third cylinder. The engine number includes information such as the engine model, production time, and origin code. Each engine has a unique engine number, which serves as important archival information for the vehicle, facilitating the management of the vehicle's engine by the engine manufacturer and vehicle management departments. Taking the 2021 Tharu as an example, it is a compact SUV with body dimensions of 4453mm in length, 1841mm in width, 1632mm in height, a wheelbase of 2680mm, a fuel tank capacity of 51 liters, and a body weight of 1405kg.

Can an electronic throttle be converted to a cable throttle?

An electronic throttle cannot be converted to a cable throttle. A cable throttle connects the throttle pedal to the throttle body via a steel cable, with a 1:1 transmission ratio—meaning the throttle opening angle directly corresponds to how much the pedal is pressed. In contrast, an electronic throttle uses cables or wiring harnesses to control the throttle opening angle, enabling automatic control functions. The engine structures of the two systems differ, and unauthorized modifications can trigger a chain reaction. The working principle of an electronic throttle is as follows: it controls the throttle opening angle via cables or wiring harnesses to achieve automatic control, replacing mechanical linkages with wiring. A small motor is installed at the throttle body to drive the throttle opening angle, known as drive-by-wire, which substitutes the original mechanical transmission mechanism.

Are Antifreeze and Coolant the Same?

Antifreeze and coolant are not the same. Antifreeze is added to the radiator, while coolant is added to the overflow tank. The functions of antifreeze include: 1. Providing anti-corrosion protection for components of the cooling system; 2. Preventing scale buildup to avoid reducing the radiator's cooling efficiency; 3. Ensuring the engine operates within the normal temperature range. Precautions for using antifreeze: 1. The antifreeze level should be checked regularly, and replenished promptly if it falls below the minimum mark; 2. Observe whether the antifreeze has any turbid sediment, and replace it immediately if any is found; 3. Different vehicle models use antifreeze of different colors, so they should not be mixed; 4. Before winter, measure the freezing point of the antifreeze to prevent it from freezing.
