Has the Issue of Excessive Formaldehyde in Audi Cars Been Resolved?

FAW-Volkswagen Audi invited the most authoritative third-party testing institutions in China to conduct evaluations, testing the odor and emission performance of all component materials, components as a whole, and the entire vehicle. Various tests were performed, including formaldehyde tests, condensation tests, and total carbon tests. The final conclusion was that formaldehyde levels did not exceed the standards, and there were no issues. Below are the relevant details: 1. Quality Inspection: Based on multiple rounds of inspections by several third-party authoritative institutions with CNAS and CMA certifications for in-car air quality, as well as batch vehicle quality monitoring by FAW-Volkswagen's odor testing laboratory with equivalent national certifications, according to the 'Guideline for Air Quality Assessment in Passenger Compartments (GB/T27630-2011),' the concentrations of volatile substances such as formaldehyde and benzene in Audi models produced by FAW-Volkswagen are within the national standard limits. 2. Assurance: As one of the earliest passenger car manufacturers in China to implement in-car air quality control, FAW-Volkswagen has a comprehensive in-car air quality assurance system covering vehicle development, production, and after-sales service. Equipped with the highest-level component and vehicle cabins in China, the most advanced hardware analysis equipment such as liquid chromatographs and gas chromatography-mass spectrometers, and a subjective evaluation system by the 'Golden Nose Team' adhering to the same standards as Audi Germany, FAW-Volkswagen conducts numerous tests on the odor and emission performance of all component materials, components as a whole, and the entire vehicle. These tests include formaldehyde tests, condensation tests, total carbon tests, and eight toxic and harmful substances specified by national standards, ensuring that the in-car air quality meets both national standards and Volkswagen Group's air quality control requirements.

Where to install the ETC device?

The ETC device is generally installed on the upper middle part of the front windshield for regular vehicles, while for large vehicles like trucks and buses, it is installed on the lower middle part. The suitable installation position should be no lower than 1.2 meters and no higher than 2.5 meters, with an installation angle between 30 to 90 degrees. For vehicles with anti-explosion film or those that have it installed later, it may affect the signal transmission of the microwave communication link, so it should be installed on the microwave sunroof strip. ETC stands for Electronic-Toll-Collection, meaning electronic toll collection system. To apply, you need to provide the original and photocopy of the vehicle owner's valid ID card and driving license. If the application is not made by the owner, the agent's valid ID card is also required. The photocopy of the driving license should include the page with the most recent annual inspection stamp. A bank card for deducting highway tolls is also needed, and the vehicle must be under the name of an individual aged between 18 and 60. For company vehicles, the required documents are: Introduction letter from the vehicle owner (with official seal); Copy of the organization code certificate or business license (with official seal); Original ID card of the agent; Original driving license of the vehicle; The vehicle that needs to apply for ETC. Here are some precautions for installing ETC: Do not block the view; it's best to install it behind the rearview mirror: Many car models have a large inclination angle of the windshield, resulting in a smaller driver's field of vision. If this is not considered when installing ETC, it will increase the driver's blind spots. Install it behind the rearview mirror on the right side to avoid blocking the view. Do not affect charging: The ETC electronic tag consumes power, but generally, it does not need to be charged or have its battery replaced because it has a solar panel on the back that can charge itself. Therefore, when installing, avoid the black areas on the windshield and do not install it in a position that may block the solar panel. Once installed, do not remove it casually: The button in the middle of the adhesive is an anti-removal lever, connected to a switch below. After the electronic tag is installed, the windshield will press the anti-removal lever in. If it is removed casually, the anti-removal lever will pop out and trigger the switch, locking the electronic tag and making it unusable. You will then need to go to an ETC service point to unlock it. This is designed to prevent multiple vehicles from sharing one device. When using ETC, note: The ETC transaction sensing area is 8 meters. To prevent the ETC device of the vehicle in front from malfunctioning, keep a distance of more than 10 meters from the vehicle in front to avoid automatic sensing and paying for the vehicle in front. The ETC lane recognizes the vehicle speed at 20 kilometers per hour. If the speed is too fast, the vehicle device information cannot be read, leading to a failed fee deduction. When using a debit card bound to ETC, insufficient balance will also cause the fee deduction to fail.
