Vehicle displaying sensor failure is caused by blockage from elastic force or obstruction of the oxygen sensor's atmospheric vent by dust and engine oil. Below are the specific details: 1. Blockage by elastic force: In this case, the oxygen sensor's signal voltage will be higher, prompting the engine computer to issue a command to reduce fuel injection, resulting in an overly lean air-fuel mixture. Check whether the three-way catalytic converter is functioning properly and if there is any blockage. Verify if the spark plugs and ignition coil are operating at normal voltage. 2. Obstruction of the oxygen sensor's atmospheric vent by dust and engine oil: Here, the oxygen sensor's signal voltage will be lower, causing the engine voltage to instruct the fuel injector to inject more fuel, leading to an overly rich air-fuel mixture.

Is China 6 the standard for the new Sagitar?

The new Sagitar currently does not meet the China 6 standard, all models are China 5 standard. Many local service standards do not allow registration, so you can patiently wait for the facelifted China 6 standard model to be launched, or consider other China 6 compliant models. However, the Sagitar has a quite good reputation for quality. The entire new Sagitar lineup meets the China 5 emission standard, not yet the China 6 standard. The front of the new Sagitar maintains Volkswagen's distinctive style, with a bold 'X' shaped sporty DNA, appearing more dynamic and stylish, like a vigorous young person. The front grille adopts a three-slat design, with added chrome trim to make the vehicle more substantial and refined.

Why should low beam headlights be used when driving straight through an intersection at night?

Using low beam headlights when driving straight through an intersection at night, specific information is as follows: 1. When passing through an intersection controlled by traffic lights at night, use low beam headlights: When driving straight through an intersection at night, according to past traffic regulations, it was required to alternately switch between high and low beams. However, the new regulations now stipulate that using low beam headlights is sufficient. 2. Intersections without traffic light control: However, when encountering an uncontrolled intersection without traffic lights, it is still necessary to reduce speed and alternately use high and low beams to signal. In case of a vehicle breakdown on the road at night where the vehicle is difficult to move, the headlights should be turned off, and the width indicator lights and hazard warning lights should be turned on.
