The reasons for the idle speed not increasing after turning on the air conditioning are: 1. Poor spark plug performance; 2. Vacuum tube leakage; 3. High-voltage wire leakage; 4. PCV valve blockage; 5. Throttle position sensor failure; 6. Idle stepper motor failure; 7. Idle control valve malfunction; 8. Abnormal throttle opening; 9. Intake system leakage. The functions of the air conditioning system: 1. Achieve cooling effect through the continuous phase change cycle of the refrigerant; 2. Remove dust, odors, smoke, and toxic gases from the air inside the car, making the air fresher, and humidify the air inside the car to increase the relative humidity of the air inside the car.

How to Solve Inaccurate Fuel Level Indication?

Solutions for inaccurate fuel level indication include: 1. Using cleaner gasoline can reduce impurities accumulated in the fuel tank, thereby decreasing the frequency of inaccurate fuel gauge readings; 2. If the fuel level sensor is contaminated, it needs to be cleaned or replaced promptly; 3. During driving, the air pressure adjustment method can also be used to correct the fuel gauge inaccuracy. The fuel level indicator is a device on the fuel tank that marks the position of the remaining fuel, displaying the amount of available fuel in the car through the indicator's readings, helping to estimate how many kilometers the car can travel. When the fuel gauge pointer reaches one-quarter, the vehicle needs refueling. Precautions for refueling: 1. Refuel in the morning or evening when temperatures are relatively lower, as the same volume of gasoline can have a higher mass; 2. When driving in the city, avoid filling the tank completely, as it increases the engine's load.

Can the Civic reach a speed of 240 km/h?

No, the Civic's top speed cannot reach 240 km/h. This would be considered speeding and could easily lead to traffic accidents. Therefore, it is often advised not to drive at such high speeds for safety reasons. Maintain a steady and safe driving speed. Below are relevant details: Top Speed: Although the tenth-generation Civic is quite successful in terms of speed, with an official top speed of 200 km/h, recent tests measured a maximum speed of 207 km/h. These tests revealed that even when the speed briefly reaches 207 km/h, the throttle is immediately cut off, preventing any further acceleration. Therefore, achieving a top speed of 220 km/h is impossible. Precautions: While driving, it is important to monitor your speed to avoid unnecessary safety hazards. Drive responsibly, pay attention to minor safety risks, and try to maintain a steady speed. Always prioritize safety and adhere to speed limits.

What to Do When the Car Temperature Gauge is Low?

The solution to a low car temperature gauge is to let the car idle, allowing the engine to generate heat and raise the temperature. The reasons for the temperature gauge light turning on are: 1. There is a fault in the engine's cooling system; 2. The engine lacks oil or water; 3. The antifreeze level is too low; 4. There is a fluid leak in the engine; 5. Faulty AC relay or fan relay; 6. A blown fuse. Solutions for when the dashboard temperature light turns on: 1. Open the engine hood and check the engine's working condition; 2. Check the water level and see if there is any fluid leakage in the engine; 3. Check if there is a lack of antifreeze; 4. Inspect the engine's cooling system for any faults; 5. Check the AC relay, fan relay, and fuse for any issues.

Should Neutral Gear Be Engaged When Parking on a Slope?

Neutral gear should not be engaged when parking on a slope. The correct practice for slope parking is to apply the foot brake first, then engage the handbrake to prevent the vehicle from rolling. The proper method for starting on a slope is: 1. Shift into D gear to ensure sufficient climbing power, making it easier to ascend; 2. Slightly release the foot brake, disengage the handbrake while applying the accelerator, and fully release the foot brake to start moving. When starting an automatic transmission vehicle on a slope, avoid rapid acceleration as it may cause wheel spin—always proceed slowly and steadily. Automatic transmission vehicles have six gear positions, arranged from top to bottom as follows: P, R, N, D, S, L. These letters represent: P for Parking/Start gear; R for Reverse gear; N for Neutral gear; D for Drive gear (also known as Forward gear); S for Sport mode; and L for Low gear.

What is the method for adjusting valve clearance?

The method for adjusting valve clearance is the cylinder-by-cylinder adjustment method. The specific steps for the cylinder-by-cylinder adjustment method are: 1. Check the valve clearance when the engine is cold; 2. Open the cylinder head cover and check in order. When each cylinder's compression stroke ends, check the intake and exhaust valve clearance of each cylinder respectively; 3. Manually rock the rocker arm to check if the valve is stuck. When the piston is at top dead center of the compression stroke, the rocker arm should be loose. Insert a feeler gauge into the valve clearance gap - the clearance value is correct when the feeler gauge can just pass through smoothly; 4. If the clearance doesn't meet specifications, loosen the lock nut on the rocker arm and adjust with a screwdriver. When the clearance reaches the specified value, tighten the lock nut with the screwdriver; 5. Recheck each valve's clearance to ensure all are properly adjusted.

What are the hidden features of the Passat?

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).
