So-called "hidden" features refer to some valuable functions that the Passat already has but remain unknown to owners who haven't thoroughly studied the manual; or features that aren't mentioned in the manual but do exist in the Passat and require debugging to activate. Below is relevant information: Car locking safety tips: Sometimes after getting out of the car, a door or the trunk lid might not be properly closed but isn't noticeable, which can create safety hazards, especially with the trunk lid. Types of car locking: There are two methods for locking the car. The first is pressing the lock button once, which completely locks the car and activates the alarm system, with the alarm lights on the doors flashing. In this state, the car cannot be opened from inside or outside unless unlocked with a key. The second method is pressing the lock button twice, which locks all doors but stops the alarm lights from flashing. The car cannot be opened from the outside, but can be opened from the inside (by pulling the door handle twice).

Additionally, a professional diagnostic tool can be used to read the electronic chassis number and access vehicle status information. Extended information is as follows: 1. Chassis number: Also known as the Vehicle Identification Number (VIN), it is a 17-character alphanumeric code that serves as the car's unique identifier. Each vehicle has its own unique chassis number. The letters and numbers in the chassis number represent the vehicle's production region, manufacturer, production year, model, and other details. 2. Detailed interpretation of the chassis number: Positions 1-3 (WMI): World Manufacturer Identifier. The first digit represents the vehicle's production country or region, while the 2nd and 3rd digits indicate the manufacturer and vehicle type. Positions 4-9 (VDS): Vehicle Descriptor Section. Positions 4-8 represent the vehicle's type, series, body, and engine type, among other details. The 9th digit is the check digit. Positions 10-17 (VIS): Vehicle Indicator Section. The 10th digit indicates the vehicle's production year. The 11th digit is the assembly plant code. Positions 12-17 represent the vehicle's production sequence number.

Why Does the Steering Wheel Shake When Braking at High Speed?

High-speed braking causing steering wheel shake can be attributed to the following reasons: 1. Uneven brake disc wear: This leads to steering wheel vibration when braking at high speeds. 2. Braking torque imbalance: When the vehicle reaches a certain speed, uneven braking torque causes asynchronous movement between left and right wheels on the same axle, resulting in brake looseness. When this imbalance reaches a certain degree, it creates unequal rolling speeds between left and right wheels, causing lateral wheel oscillation which is then transmitted to the steering wheel.

How to Solve Black Smoke from Diesel Vehicles?

Diesel vehicles emitting black smoke require inspection or replacement of the air filter, cleaning of the fuel system or adding fuel cleaner, and checking the fuel injectors. The following are the causes of black smoke from diesel vehicles: 1. Dirty air filter: Remove the air filter and observe the exhaust smoke color. If the black smoke condition improves, it is caused by severe dirtiness of the air filter; 2. Excessive fuel supply in a cylinder: During engine operation, conduct a cylinder-by-cylinder fuel cut-off test. When a cylinder is cut off, the engine speed decreases, black smoke significantly reduces, and knocking sound weakens or disappears, indicating excessive fuel supply in that cylinder.
