I've been driving the Tiguan for over three years now, and the performance is truly impressive. It's equipped with a 1.8-liter turbocharged engine that delivers 180 horsepower and 290 Nm of torque. The acceleration is quick and smooth, without any noticeable jerkiness, especially when overtaking on the highway—just step on the gas and it handles it effortlessly. The fuel consumption is also quite reasonable, around 8.5L/100km in the city and dropping to about 7L on the highway. I remember during my last road trip, it didn't struggle at all climbing steep slopes, and the engine remained quiet. For daily maintenance, I stick to changing the oil every 5,000 km to extend its lifespan. New drivers might worry about the engine size being too large, but in reality, it's very easy to handle in the city, with agile and responsive steering. For more detailed experiences, you can search online for Tiguan user reviews—they're quite reliable.

Will the Transmission of a Flooded Car Get Water In?

Yes, the transmission of a flooded car can get water inside. Here are the specific scenarios: First scenario: Engine coolant enters the automatic transmission through the radiator. Second scenario: Water enters the automatic transmission through the vent after the vehicle is submerged. Hazards: When water enters the automatic transmission, vehicle faults do not appear immediately, so owners often overlook checking the transmission fluid. Over time, the transmission fluid deteriorates and emulsifies, leading to reduced lubrication performance and increased wear of internal components. When the transmission slips, the fluid turns black and emits a burnt smell, and the friction elements of the clutch and brakes slip. This phenomenon can cause the engine to rev high while the vehicle speed increases slowly, often affecting gear shifting as well. At this point, the transmission must undergo major repairs.

What to Do When the Car Window Glass is Covered with Rainwater and Obstructs Vision?

When the car window glass is covered with rainwater and obstructs vision, the problem should be resolved immediately. Here are some solutions to address this issue: 1. Soap for Water Removal: Soap, as a common household item, is a very useful cleaning tool. The principle of using soap to remove rainwater from car windows is easy to understand. Since soap molecules can disrupt the surface tension of the glass, water molecules cannot form droplets on the glass. Instead, they spread evenly across the glass surface, which does not affect the transparency of the window glass, as water itself is transparent. 2. Purchase Waterproof Stickers: Waterproof stickers for car windows are available in most stores. Using these items can effectively prevent this problem.

Can a Flood-Damaged Car Be Insured in the Second Year?

Flood-damaged cars cannot be insured in the second year. Below are the specific details regarding this matter: Introduction: During the insurance period, if the insured vehicle suffers damage due to being "flooded" by natural disasters such as heavy rain or floods, the insurance company will provide compensation as agreed. After the vehicle is "flooded," the insurance assessor will visit the accident site upon the owner’s report, document the scene, and conduct an on-site inspection. Impact of Flood Damage: It damages the car body. After being flooded, the metal parts of the chassis and body will corrode and eventually rust over time, which not only affects the vehicle’s appearance but also poses safety hazards.

Can a Car Key Be Made Smaller?

Car keys can be resized, but this practice is not recommended. Here are the details about modifying car keys: 1. Car Key Functions: A car remote key can perform a series of functions such as locking and unlocking car doors, and even starting the engine. It contains a built-in chip and battery to enable these functions. 2. Issues with Resizing: Since the size of the chip and battery inside the key is fixed, resizing the key may lead to incompatibility. Therefore, modifying the original key is difficult to achieve. The only feasible option is to use an external remote locking device and pair it with a new remote key to attempt the modification.

What are the impacts of a water-damaged car after repair?

After a car has been submerged in water, its electrical circuits can suffer severe damage. Below are the specific details regarding the related issues: Introduction: When a vehicle is submerged in water for an extended period, its body components can corrode significantly, and the electrical circuits and devices can sustain extensive damage. Even after repairs, it remains a ticking time bomb, leaving behind numerous safety hazards. In later use, the vehicle may frequently experience minor issues. Spontaneous Combustion: If a motor vehicle is submerged in water, it can easily lead to rusting of body components, shortening its lifespan and reducing safety performance. For example, water damage can cause corrosion and rusting of the vehicle's wiring, leading to sudden engine shutdown or spontaneous combustion due to short circuits while driving, with potentially catastrophic consequences.
