Mercedes-Benz original transmission oil is a DCT-specific oil imported from Germany, with the product part number A00198985309. Mercedes-Benz transmission oil is generally recommended to be replaced every 3 years or 60,000 kilometers, whichever comes first. Different models have different replacement cycles. Below are the replacement cycles for transmission oil: Manual transmission: Manual transmission oil is generally recommended to be replaced every 3 years or approximately 100,000 kilometers. Automatic transmission: Automatic transmission oil is generally recommended to be replaced every 2 years or approximately 40,000 kilometers. Continuously variable transmission (CVT): CVT oil is generally recommended to be replaced every 2 years or approximately 60,000 kilometers. The methods for replacing transmission oil are as follows: Unscrew the drain plug at the bottom of the transmission to drain the oil before refilling. Remove the transmission oil pan directly to drain and refill the oil: This method is more thorough than the previous one, as it removes impurities from the bottom of the oil pan. Use a circulation machine to replace automatic transmission oil: Dynamic oil replacement with an intelligent circulation machine can filter and clean sludge and impurities inside the automatic transmission.

I've been driving Mercedes-Benz cars for over a decade. The original transmission fluid is usually from Petronas, a brand that has a long-term partnership with Mercedes-Benz, providing custom-formulated fluids specifically for their transmissions. Every time I go for maintenance, the 4S dealership insists on using this brand. A single change can last about 70,000 to 80,000 kilometers, which is quite durable. If you try to save money by switching to a no-name brand, it may not only affect the smoothness of gear shifts but also accelerate wear on internal components. Repairs in such cases can cost several thousand dollars, making it really not worth it. Additionally, the color of the transmission fluid is a key indicator—fresh fluid is light red, and if it darkens or turns black, it's time for a check-up. I recommend having a professional mechanic inspect it regularly to ensure safe and smooth vehicle operation.

How to use cruise control on Audi A6?

The cruise control switch on Audi A6 is a lever-type. Operation method: Push backward to cancel and turn off, pull forward to turn on and resume, lift upward to increase the set speed value, and press downward to decrease the set speed value. To check if cruise control is on, look for the green icon on the speedometer - if it's lit, it means it's activated. More details are as follows: 1. Activation: The Audi A6 cruise control system maintains a constant speed starting from 30km/h by adjusting engine power or activating brake intervention. The control switch for the cruise system is located on the left rear side of the steering wheel. The cruise control system can maintain speed on continuous unobstructed roads without requiring constant driver control, thereby achieving fuel-saving effects. Locate the cruise control switch (on the right side of the steering wheel), and press it when exceeding forty kilometers to maintain that speed. 2. Cancellation: Press the cruise lever downward to cancel and resume normal driving. To restore the most recent cruise information, lift the cruise lever upward. Push the cruise lever forward to accelerate, backward to decelerate. Press the cruise lever to the lowest switch position to turn off the entire system.

How to adjust the rearview mirror of a Volkswagen car?

Volkswagen rearview mirror adjustment method is: 1. The driver sits in the driver's seat and finds the electric adjustment button on the left door, observing a white dot on the adjustment button and the letters next to it: L represents the left rearview mirror, R represents the right rearview mirror; 2. To adjust the angle of the left rearview mirror, rotate the adjustment knob's white dot to the L position; 3. Lift the knob upwards to change the rearview mirror's viewing angle upwards, similarly press the knob downwards to change the rearview mirror's viewing angle upwards, and use the same method to move the knob left or right; 4. To adjust the angle of the right rearview mirror, rotate the adjustment knob's white dot to the R position; 5. Lift the knob upwards to change the rearview mirror's viewing angle upwards, similarly press the knob downwards to change the rearview mirror's viewing angle downwards, and use the same method to move the knob left or right; 6. After adjustment, rotate the adjustment knob's white dot to the O position.

How to Deal with a Nail Puncture in a Tire?

As long as the tire damage is not severe, it can usually be repaired by patching. However, if the tire damage is serious, it is recommended to replace it with a new one. Here are situations where tire replacement is not necessary: Damage diameter on the tread is less than 6mm: During daily use, it is most common for a tire to be punctured by a nail, and often it goes unnoticed at the time. A nail piercing the tire does not significantly damage the tire's structure; it merely creates a hole in the steel belts, fabric layers, and polyester layers, which can be repaired. Excessive tread damage: If the tread comes into contact with a sharp object, causing severe tread pattern loss or the tire body to be cut, and the puncture hole exceeds 6mm in diameter, the tire cannot be safely repaired. In such cases, the punctured tire must be replaced to ensure driving safety. Bulging: Bulging occurs when the cords in the fabric layers break. If this happens, the tire must be replaced immediately, as delaying replacement could lead to the risk of a blowout.

Where is the water on the car floor leaking from?

The following are the reasons for water leakage on the car floor: 1. The air conditioning drain pipe is detached, discharging condensate water to the front passenger seat; 2. The drain holes on the floor originally had covers or rubber plugs, but they were removed, allowing water to splash onto the floor while driving; 3. The door seals are not tight, frequently allowing water to enter; 4. There are holes or missed welding points in the front wall of the cabin, causing leaks during car washing or heavy rain. If water is dripping to the ground outside the car, this is a normal phenomenon, usually caused by the following reasons: 1. Because the car's air conditioning system has an evaporator installed inside the dashboard, when the air conditioning is turned on (A/C button ON), the surface temperature of the evaporator is very low, and the moisture in the hot air inside the car will condense on the surface of the evaporator's heat-absorbing fins, collected by the plastic housing of the evaporator, and discharged outside the car through pipes. 2. Sometimes, the compressor installed in the engine compartment (low-pressure area) can also condense moisture from the air, dripping onto the ground. 3. If the low-pressure pipes are not wrapped with insulation foam, the surface of the pipes can easily condense moisture from the air, and water droplets often condense and gather at the lowest point of the pipes, dripping down.

What is the Volkswagen Lavida 648 relay?

Volkswagen Lavida relay number 648 is the main relay, whose primary function is to control instrument power supply. Below is relevant information about the relay: 1. Basic components of a relay: Automotive relays consist of a magnetic circuit system, contact system, and reset mechanism. The magnetic circuit system is composed of components such as the iron core, yoke, armature, and coil. The contact system includes parts like stationary spring leaves, moving spring leaves, and contact bases. 2. Classification of relays: Current-controlled relays operate based on specific current values and form practical circuits with other components. For example, the flasher relay in vehicles - the higher the current, the faster the flashing frequency. Voltage-controlled relays activate at specific voltage thresholds, either connecting or disconnecting controlled circuits when the circuit voltage exceeds or falls below certain values. Examples include lighting relays and horn relays. Voltage relays are primarily used to control high-current consumption circuits. Typically, the coil control voltage of such relays requires more than 7V to operate and stops working when below 5V.

Do You Start Over If You Fail in the Middle of Subject Two?

If there are no clear instructions from the examiner or the system after failing during the test, you can brazenly continue with the remaining test items. Generally, during the test, the examiner may ask the failing candidate to exit the vehicle and wait or leave directly to improve test efficiency, then proceed with the next candidate, without allowing time for the failing candidate to complete the entire test. Below are more related details: Precautions for Subject Two: 1. During the preparation before getting into the vehicle, be sure to adjust the seat and fasten the seat belt before verifying the fingerprint. 2. Each test item in the examination area is monitored by GPS positioning. The control line (yellow dotted line) of each item represents the test area for that item. Once the front of the vehicle crosses the control line, it means you have entered the test area for that item and must complete the test according to its rules. 3. Before entering the next test item each time, confirm whether there are any vehicles ahead still taking the test. If there is a vehicle ahead undergoing the test, you must stop and wait before the yellow line of that item and must not enter.
