The main reason for the high fuel consumption of the old Cruze is the heavy weight of the car. Below is an introduction to fuel consumption: 1. Fuel consumption per 100 kilometers: This refers to the fuel consumption of a vehicle driving 100 kilometers on the road at a certain speed. It is a theoretical indicator of the vehicle. The fuel consumption per 100 kilometers is measured by the manufacturer in an objective environment using a dynamometer installed on the vehicle's chassis, converting the measured values into speed parameters, and then calculating the theoretical experimental fuel consumption per 100 kilometers of the model at specified speeds. 2. Road condition fuel consumption: Road condition fuel consumption is a fuel indicator calculated by repeatedly testing the values measured when the vehicle is driven on specified roads at specified speeds and times. It is also called multi-condition road cycle fuel consumption. In the specification, each cycle includes various driving conditions, and records driving conditions according to specified shift times, parking times, driving speeds, acceleration, braking, deceleration, and other indicators in each cycle. The measured values using this method are closer to actual values.

How long does it take for a new car to be licensed?

There is no clear regulation on how long a new car needs to be licensed, but if the car is to be driven on the road, a temporary license plate can be applied for or the car must be legally licensed. It is not allowed to drive without a license plate. Regarding the time for licensing a new car, two points should be noted: one is the national environmental protection policy, and the other is the car's announcement. Although there is no regulation on how long after purchasing a new car it must be licensed, these two factors will affect the licensing time. License plates, commonly known as car plates, also refer to vehicle license plates, which are plates hung at the front and rear of the car. The materials usually used are aluminum, iron, plastic, or paper, on which the car's registration number, registration area, or other relevant information is engraved.

What is the recommended tire pressure for car tires?

The reasons why the sunroof cannot be closed are as follows: Sunroof motor jammed or damaged: In this case, it is necessary to check the control circuit of the sunroof motor. If the control circuit is normal, a new sunroof motor needs to be replaced, followed by a reset and matching of the sunroof motor. Sunroof slide rail deformation: In this situation, the extent of the slide rail deformation should be inspected at a repair shop to determine if it can be repaired. If the deformation is particularly severe, the sunroof slide rail needs to be replaced. Sunroof control panel malfunction: The sunroof may not work due to a short circuit or poor connection in the integrated circuit board of the sunroof control panel. In this case, the sunroof control panel needs to be disassembled and inspected.

Why is the car's water temperature high?

The reasons for high water temperature in a car: 1. Lack of antifreeze can easily cause air blockage in the water circulation, leading to excessively high water temperature; 2. The thermostat cannot open, which is also relatively easy to damage. If the thermostat fails to open, the antifreeze cannot form a large circulation, making it prone to overheating; 3. Cooling fan failure. When the vehicle is running at high speed, the generated heat cannot be transferred to the antifreeze in time, affecting heat dissipation and causing the antifreeze temperature to rise, boiling, and other issues; 4. Cracks in the impeller or loosening of the impeller from the pump shaft can slow down the coolant circulation speed, easily leading to engine overheating; 5. Using water as a medium for a long time can cause rust in the engine and radiator, resulting in poor radiator performance and high water temperature.

What does autohold mean in a car?

Autohold in a car refers to the automatic parking system. The button for this function may be labeled as "autohold" or feature a semicircle with the letter "a" inside. Despite the different appearances, the buttons serve the same purpose. The automatic parking system is a technological application that enables the automatic handbrake function while the car is in motion. It allows drivers to avoid prolonged braking when the vehicle is stationary and prevents unnecessary sliding when the system is activated. The autohold function utilizes a slope sensor to provide precise parking force through the controller. During startup, the parking control unit calculates information from sensors such as the clutch distance sensor, clutch engagement speed sensor, and throttle pedal sensor. When the driving force exceeds the running resistance, the parking brake is automatically released, ensuring a smooth start for the vehicle.

What is the fuel consumption of the Tharu?

The Volkswagen Tharu is equipped with two turbocharged engines. One is a 1.4T turbocharged engine with a maximum power output of 110kW and an average fuel consumption of 7.67L/100Km. The other is a 2.0T turbocharged engine with a maximum power output of 137kW and an average fuel consumption of 8.88L/100Km. The details are as follows: 1. Transmission: Both the 1.4T and 2.0T versions of the Volkswagen Tharu are matched with a 7-speed dual-clutch transmission. The difference is that the 1.4T model is front-wheel drive, while the 2.0T model is four-wheel drive. 2. Fuel Consumption: The fuel consumption of the vehicle may vary depending on the driver's habits, weather conditions, and road conditions. The actual fuel consumption should be based on the owner's real-world usage.
