The Golf comes with three tire specifications: the 2021 Golf 200TSI DSG uses 205/55R16 tires, the 2021 Golf 280TSI DSG Pro First Edition uses 225/45R17 tires, and the 2021 Golf 380TSI DSG GTI uses 225/40R18 tires. In the 205/55R16 specification, the first number 205 indicates the tire width is 205mm, 55 represents the aspect ratio (the height of the tire's cross-section is 55% of its width), and 16 denotes the rim diameter is 16 inches. The letter "R" stands for radial construction. In the 225/45R17 specification, the first number 225 indicates the tire width is 225mm, 45 represents the aspect ratio (the height of the tire's cross-section is 45% of its width), and 17 denotes the rim diameter is 17 inches. The letter "R" stands for radial construction. In the 225/40R18 specification, the first number 225 indicates the tire width is 225mm, 40 represents the aspect ratio (the height of the tire's cross-section is 40% of its width), and 18 denotes the rim diameter is 18 inches. The letter "R" stands for radial construction. The Golf uses tires from Hankook, Goodyear, and Dunlop, with all models equipped with non-full-size spare tires. If you wish to replace the tires yourself, follow these steps: 1. Retrieve the spare tire and jack. Position the jack under the vehicle's frame near the tire to be replaced, ensuring it contacts the metal part of the frame. 2. Raise the jack until it supports the car. The jack should be positioned under the vehicle, and ensure it is perpendicular to the ground. 3. Remove the hubcap and loosen the lug nuts counterclockwise. Do not fully remove them yet—just enough to reduce resistance. Keeping the tire on the ground initially ensures the nuts turn rather than the tire. Continue loosening the nuts until they come off, repeating for all lug nuts. 4. Place the new tire onto the wheel hub, carefully aligning the tire rim with the wheel bolts. Install the lug nuts and hand-tighten them until all are snug. The tire replacement is now complete. In addition to the specifications, tires also display the following common data: - Tire cord material: Indicated by Chinese pinyin, such as M (cotton cord), R (rayon cord), N (nylon cord), G (steel cord), and ZG (steel radial cord). - Speed rating: Indicates the maximum speed the tire can handle under specified conditions. Letters A to Z represent speed ratings from 4.8 km/h to 300 km/h. Common ratings include Q (160 km/h), H (210 km/h), V (240 km/h), W (270 km/h), and Y (300 km/h). - Rim specification: Shows the compatible rim size for practical use, such as "Standard Rim 5.00F."

What is the process of vehicle inspection?

The process of vehicle inspection is: 1. Prepare the required materials for vehicle inspection, such as the vehicle license, ID cards and copies of the owner and the agent. 2. Conduct an exterior inspection of the vehicle upon arrival at the inspection site. 3. Pay the inspection fee and input the information. 4. Conduct the online inspection. 5. Perform a final review. 6. After passing the review, the relevant personnel will issue the annual inspection sticker to the owner. The inspection cycle varies depending on the vehicle type: 1. For small and mini non-operational passenger vehicles, inspect every 2 years within the first 6 years, annually after exceeding 6 years, and every 6 months after exceeding 15 years. 2. For operational passenger vehicles, inspect annually within the first 5 years and every 6 months after exceeding 5 years. 3. For trucks and large and medium-sized non-operational passenger vehicles, inspect annually within the first 10 years.

How to Determine the Position of the Right Front of the Car While Driving?

How to determine the position of the right front of the car while driving is as follows: 1. Front parking. When the line of sight cannot see the part where the obstacle touches the ground, the distance between the front of the car and the obstacle is about 50 cm to 80 cm. 2. Reverse parking. If there are other vehicles parked around, if there is one similar in length to your vehicle, aligning the front door handles of the adjacent vehicle is generally fine; otherwise, adjust and stop appropriately by comparison. When there are no other vehicles around for reference, first use the interior rearview mirror. When the trunk line in the rearview mirror exceeds the contact point of the obstacle with the ground, the car is about 1 m to 1.3 m away from the obstacle. Then adjust the distance appropriately.

How to Deal with the Illuminated ABS Light?

When the ABS light is illuminated, it indicates a fault in the ABS system (usually a damaged sensor), which prevents it from functioning normally. However, it does not affect normal braking, and you can continue driving. Here are the solutions and additional information: 1. Schedule a visit to a 4S shop or a professional auto repair shop for maintenance. It's important to note that in extreme conditions (such as high-speed driving or icy roads), sudden braking may cause the wheels to lock up. 2. Lock-up refers to a situation where, during braking, the tires stop rotating completely after a single brake application. This can easily lead to loss of vehicle control and cause traffic accidents or other hazards. The Anti-lock Braking System, abbreviated as ABS, functions by automatically controlling the braking force during vehicle braking to prevent wheel lock-up, keeping the wheels in a state of rolling and sliding (with a slip ratio of about 20%), ensuring maximum traction between the tires and the road surface.

What are the reasons for the rapid consumption of coolant in the new Changan CS75?

The reasons for the rapid consumption of coolant in the new Changan CS75 are as follows: 1. Reason one: Radiator damage, poor sealing of the upper and lower water chambers leading to coolant leakage; 2. Reason two: Overflow tank, water pump joint surface, and loose connections in the cooling system pipes causing coolant leakage; Rubber-metal pipe joints frequently exposed to high temperatures may age due to thermal expansion and contraction, leading to small gaps through which coolant can leak. 3. Reason three: Damage to the cylinder head gasket, excessive flatness deviation or warping of the joint surface between the cylinder head and cylinder block, and loose cylinder head fastening bolts, allowing high-temperature and high-pressure gas from the cylinder to enter the cooling system, resulting in rapid coolant consumption.

Can the Three-Way Catalytic Converter Be Repaired?

If the three-way catalytic converter is damaged, such as broken or deformed, it cannot be repaired and must be replaced directly. If it is only clogged, its performance can be restored by cleaning, but if the clogging is severe, replacement is still necessary. More relevant information is as follows: 1. The three-way catalytic converter is the most important external purification device installed in the automobile exhaust system. It converts harmful gases such as CO, HC, and NOx emitted by automobile exhaust into harmless carbon dioxide, water, and nitrogen through oxidation and reduction. 2. When high-temperature automobile exhaust passes through the purification device, the purifying agent in the three-way catalytic converter enhances the activity of CO, HC, and NOx, promoting certain oxidation-reduction chemical reactions. Among them, CO is oxidized at high temperatures into colorless, non-toxic carbon dioxide gas; HC compounds are oxidized into water (H2O) and carbon dioxide at high temperatures; and NOx is reduced into nitrogen and oxygen. The three harmful gases are transformed into harmless gases, thereby purifying the automobile exhaust.
