I know the engine of Jetta VA3 very well. It uses a 1.5L naturally aspirated engine from Volkswagen's EA211 series, commonly paired with manual or automatic transmission options. The power output is approximately 82 kW or 110 horsepower, with a peak torque of 145 N·m. While the power isn't particularly high, it's sufficient for daily use—stable acceleration in the city without being too aggressive, and safe overtaking on highways. The fuel consumption is quite friendly, averaging around 6-7L/100km, and it runs on 92-octane gasoline, making it economical and practical. Maintenance is straightforward, with low-cost oil and filter changes every 10,000 km and minimal faults. The engine runs smoothly with minimal noise, and the transmission shifts seamlessly. In terms of driving experience, it's ideal for commuting—economical and practical. This engine has been used for many years with high reliability, and the newer version has been upgraded to meet the China VI emission standards for better environmental performance. For long-term use, regular checks on the cooling system are recommended to prevent overheating and extend its lifespan.

As an average car owner, I've driven the Jetta VA3 for quite some time. Its engine specs are a 1.5L naturally aspirated engine producing 110 horsepower and 145 Nm of torque, delivering steady and robust power that makes city driving and hill climbing for school runs effortless. Fuel efficiency is practical, with around 7L/100km in the city and just over 5L/100km on highways, saving costs on fuel. Maintenance costs are reasonable, with minor services costing a few hundred yuan and only requiring periodic spark plug replacements. The engine's high reliability, minimal vibration, and quiet operation make it ideal for family life. Power remains unaffected when using the AC, making it suitable for summer road trips. The cabin is well-designed with spacious rear seating. I recommend new drivers familiarize themselves with transmission matching to optimize fuel savings. Tire selection is also crucial—premium tires enhance stability and safety. From a long-term ownership perspective, this engine is durable and trouble-free; regular engine cleaning helps maintain performance.

I've worked with quite a few Jetta VA3 engines at the repair shop. They use a 1.5L engine with 82kW power and 145Nm torque. The structure is simple and easy to maintain, with an oil change interval of 10,000 kilometers. It has low maintenance costs and few failures. For long-term use, regularly check the cooling and ignition systems to prevent overheating. Actual fuel consumption is 6-7L per 100km. Using high-quality oil can extend its lifespan. The engine is designed to be durable and suitable for various road conditions. It's recommended that owners check the filters every six months.

How to deal with the vehicle stop warning?

Vehicle stop warning can be handled by: pulling over safely, contacting a 4S shop or professional auto repair shop, and using professional computer diagnostic equipment to check the fault codes stored in the vehicle's computer to determine the displayed code, then repairing the vehicle accordingly. The stop warning light is connected to the engine oil pressure, low brake fluid level, coolant temperature gauge, and electronic brake force distribution system fault warning lights. When any of these components has an issue, the stop light will illuminate. For example, if the engine coolant temperature is too high while driving, the coolant temperature warning light will come on, and the stop light will also illuminate to alert the driver of an engine fault.

Why Should the Engine Be Turned Off Before Refueling a Car?

The reasons for turning off the engine before refueling a car are: 1. When the engine is not turned off, the engine and other instruments are in operation. Gasoline is an electrolyte, which can easily cause instrument leakage, leading to short circuits or open circuits in the wiring; 2. The exhaust pipe continuously emits exhaust gases, which may carry sparks, creating potential safety hazards; 3. Operating instruments generate a large amount of heat, accelerating the volatilization of gasoline. The concentration of gasoline-air mixture increases and is difficult to disperse, making it prone to ignition and explosion. The correct steps for refueling a car are: 1. Slow down and drive into the gas station at a reduced speed, and drive out at a low speed after refueling; 2. Turn off the engine before refueling; 3. After filling up, close the fuel nozzle before starting the car.

How Long After Car Paint Touch-Up Can It Be Exposed to Rain?

How long after car paint touch-up it can be exposed to rain depends on different situations: 1. If the painting is done in a paint booth, the car can be exposed to rain immediately after driving out; 2. If the painting is done at a professional shop, the car can be exposed to rain when the staff delivers the car; 3. If the painting is done on the same day, it needs two days before being exposed to rain; 4. At lower temperatures, it requires one week before being exposed to rain. The method for paint touch-up is: 1. Clean the area where the paint has chipped off with water; 2. Sand the chipped area with sandpaper and check by hand if the surface is smooth; 3. Cover the areas that do not need touch-up with tape; 4. Use a spray can matching the car's color to spray the chipped area.

How to Eliminate the Illuminated ABS Warning Light in a Car?

ABS refers to the vehicle's Anti-lock Braking System. The illumination of the ABS warning light may indicate a malfunction in the wheel speed sensor, which can be categorized into two scenarios. The first scenario involves sensor failure causing incorrect transmission of wheel speed data, leading to discrepancies in the information received by the onboard computer, thereby triggering the ABS light. In such cases, professional repair or sensor replacement at a service center is required. The second scenario occurs when the wheel speed sensor becomes dirty, preventing accurate detection of the wheel's actual speed, which also results in the dashboard warning light. Cleaning the sensor can restore normal functionality. Additionally, a fault in the sensor wiring that disrupts data transmission to the computer system can prevent the system from recognizing the status of each wheel, causing the dashboard light to illuminate. In this situation, replacing the sensor wiring harness is the only solution. The primary function of ABS is to automatically regulate the braking force during vehicle deceleration, preventing wheel lock-up and maintaining a state of rolling and sliding. This ensures maximum traction between the wheels and the road surface. ABS enhances lateral stability during braking, improves directional control, optimizes braking efficiency, and reduces localized excessive tire wear.
