The reasons for the failure of the Volkswagen Lavida's auto start-stop function are as follows: 1. Accidental pressing of the auto start-stop button: The system may be turned off due to accidental pressing of the auto start-stop button, so it is necessary to check whether the system is turned off. In manual transmission cars, the auto start-stop system will only activate when the system recognizes that the gear is in neutral, the handbrake is engaged, and the clutch is released. 2. Insufficient battery power: The engine auto start-stop system failure may be caused by insufficient battery power, as the battery capacity decreases after long-term use, preventing the car's engine start-stop system from functioning properly. 3. Failure to activate: The auto start-stop function may not activate if the engine has not reached normal operating temperature, the automatic air conditioning has not reached the preset temperature, the battery charge is insufficient, the steering wheel is turned after parking, the vehicle is in emergency braking, or reversing, etc.

What Causes Blue Smoke from a Car's Exhaust Pipe?

Car exhaust pipe emits blue smoke due to: oil leaking into the exhaust pipe, excessive clearance between pistons and cylinders, or piston ring seizure. When blue smoke appears from the exhaust pipe, the first step is to check whether there is oil in the exhaust pipe. If the valve stem seal is leaking oil, it will allow oil to seep into the exhaust manifold, causing high temperatures that produce blue smoke. Blue smoke from the exhaust pipe indicates "oil burning" in the car. Oil burning refers to excessive oil in the combustion chamber participating in combustion, which can lead to increased carbon deposits in the cylinders, incomplete combustion, reduced power, and may cause exposed combustion. The severe consequence of exposed combustion is that the engine may be completely scrapped. Additionally, it can result in unstable idling, lack of acceleration power, insufficient engine lubrication, leading to irreparable damage or scrapping of the engine.

What to Do When Smoke Comes from the Hood After Driving Through Water

Observe the engine's water temperature to check for boiling over. If this is the case, park the vehicle in a safe and shady place to allow the engine to cool down. If the white smoke is caused by a faulty fuel injector, do not start the vehicle again and immediately contact a mechanic for assistance. If the white smoke is caused by the braking system, pull over to the side of the road and let the brake pads cool down naturally.
