The transmission of the Audi A4 is a simulated 7-speed CVT continuously variable transmission from German manufacturer ZF. Positioning of the Audi A4: The Audi A4, produced by FAW-Volkswagen, is the first B-segment sedan from an international luxury brand in China, filling the gap in the domestic B-segment sedan market and reinforcing FAW-Volkswagen's leading position in the domestic luxury car market, which was quite significant at the time. Displacement options for the Audi A4: The FAW Audi A4 was sold in three displacement options: 1.8T, 2.4, and 3.0. The 1.8T came in four variants: manual base model, automatic base model, comfort model, and technology-leading model. The 2.4 displacement was available in three variants: comfort model, comfort sports model, and comfort luxury model. The 3.0 displacement had only one variant, which was equipped with the quattro all-wheel-drive system.

As someone who has long focused on car performance, the transmission brands of the Audi A4 are quite noteworthy. In older models, manual transmissions often used Getrag, which is durable but has a stiff gear feel. For automatic transmissions, ZF's 8-speed gearbox was used in many versions, such as some models from 2008 to 2015, delivering smooth acceleration. The newer A4 now features the S tronic dual-clutch transmission. While this is Audi's in-house technology, the core suppliers might be ZF or Aisin. Driving a friend's car, I noticed the shifts are lightning-fast and highly responsive. Different transmission brands affect driving comfort: ZF is tuned for a gentler feel, while Aisin focuses more on fuel efficiency. Regular maintenance is key—it's best to change the transmission fluid every 60,000 km to avoid minor issues like jerking or unusual noises. Overall, when choosing an A4, checking the manual to confirm the brand that matches your needs is the safest bet.

What does it mean when the Passat displays a check coolant indicator?

The Passat displaying a check coolant indicator means that the coolant level is insufficient and needs to be checked and refilled. Solution: Check whether the coolant in the coolant reservoir is between the "MAX" and "MIN" marks, or directly inspect if the coolant in the radiator is sufficient. If the coolant is insufficient, it should be replenished. If the coolant level is adequate but the warning light is flashing, you can continue driving normally. Function of coolant: The coolant's function is to cool the engine. Coolant is also known as antifreeze. If the coolant is insufficient, it cannot effectively cool the engine, leading to abnormal engine operation. Coolant helps prevent engine failures, avoids radiator overheating, and provides long-term protection for water temperature, making it usable year-round.

Turn the wiper up or down?

Turning the wiper up turns it on. Pulling the wiper lever backward activates the rear wiper, while the middle OFF position turns the wiper off. Lifting the wiper lever upward activates the front wiper's washer function, spraying windshield fluid for cleaning. Most wiper switches are located on the right-hand stalk of the steering wheel, known as the stalk-type wiper. The wiper is a blade structure installed in front of the windshield, consisting of a motor, reducer, four-bar linkage, wiper arm spindle, and wiper blade assembly. Its main function is to clear rain, snow, and dust from the windshield that obstruct the driver's view, improving visibility and enhancing driving safety. Rear windows of hatchbacks and SUVs are also equipped with wipers.

How to repair the dented side skirt of Volkswagen Lavida?

To repair the dented side skirt of Volkswagen Lavida: 1. Use a suction cup to pull out the dent on the side skirt. This method utilizes the difference in atmospheric pressure inside and outside to adhere to the object, providing a strong pulling force; 2. Attach the suction cup to the dented area. If the dent is large, prepare several suction cups and evenly place them at the center of the dent; 3. Then, use tools to pull outward with controlled force, as excessive force may turn the dent into a bulge. Taking the 2021 Lavida 1.5L Manual Comfort Edition as an example, the car's dimensions are 4670mm in length, 1806mm in width, and 1474mm in height, with a wheelbase of 2688mm.

Why does the Lavida make noise when braking?

The reasons for the Lavida making noise when braking: 1. Scratches on the brake disc. When the noise occurs after replacing the new pads, it is found that the new brake pads do not fit well with the scratched brake disc, ultimately causing the noise; 2. Misaligned brake pads or inconsistent brake sizes. If the brake pads are misaligned during installation, local friction of the brake pads will cause noise; 3. The material of the brake pads themselves. The noise mentioned here refers to the noise occurring when the surface of the brake disc is completely smooth and flat. The Lavida has a length, width, and height of 4670mm, 1806mm, and 1474mm respectively, with a wheelbase of 2688mm. The body type is a 4-door, 5-seater sedan, equipped with a 5-speed manual transmission.
