Volkswagen's original navigation system is from Siemens. Here is an introduction to some knowledge about car navigation systems: 1. Function: Car navigation utilizes the vehicle's GPS (Global Positioning System) in conjunction with electronic maps to conveniently and accurately guide drivers to their destinations via the shortest or fastest routes, making it a great assistant for drivers. 2. Principle: This refers to the vehicle's GPS navigation system. The built-in GPS antenna receives data signals from at least three of the 24 GPS satellites orbiting the Earth. By combining this with the electronic maps stored in the car navigation device, the system matches the position coordinates determined by the GPS satellite signals to pinpoint the vehicle's exact location on the electronic map, which is commonly known as the positioning function.

Do You Need to Press the Clutch When Shifting a Manual Transmission?

When shifting a manual transmission, you need to press the clutch pedal all the way down. Failing to do so may cause abnormal noises or even clutch vibration. Manual transmission shifting techniques: Shift gears according to the vehicle's speed. Generally, start in first gear, shift to second gear after moving a few meters; shift to third gear when the speed reaches above 20 mph but below 35 mph; shift to fourth gear when the speed reaches above 35 mph but below 45 mph; shift to fifth gear when the speed exceeds 45 mph. This applies to standard five-speed transmissions. For vehicles with six or more gears, you can upshift approximately every 15 mph increase in speed. When shifting, coordinate the clutch and accelerator properly—press the clutch fully, then release the accelerator pedal, and quickly shift to the desired gear. Master the correct shifting hand position: palm facing down, covering the gear knob, with all five fingers gripping it firmly before shifting. Ensure each shift is fully engaged. Sometimes, after prolonged driving, shifts may become careless, lifting the clutch before the gear is properly engaged, which can severely damage the transmission. Therefore, always press the clutch fully when shifting. Typically, to engage first gear, push left and then forward; for second gear, push left and then down; for third gear, push straight up from neutral; for fourth gear, push straight down from neutral; for fifth gear, push right and then up. Starting a manual transmission vehicle: After starting the engine, fully depress the clutch with your left foot; use your right palm to push the gear lever into first gear; lightly press the turn signal lever down with your left hand to activate the left turn signal, alerting others; press the horn button in the center of the steering wheel to warn pedestrians ahead; prepare to start; press and hold the button in front of the handbrake with your right hand, lift the handbrake, then fully lower and release it; slowly lift your left foot until the clutch reaches the half-engaged position, and the vehicle will begin to move.

How many points are deducted for the rear of the car sweeping the line during reverse parking?

Sweeping the line with the car body means the car body is out of line, which results in a deduction of 100 points, making the test unsuccessful. Other actions that also deduct 100 points include the car body crossing the line, not entering the parking space, stopping midway, not following the prescribed route, not following the sequence, or exceeding the specified time. The full score for both subjects is 100 points, with evaluation criteria set for failure, deduction of 20 points, deduction of 10 points, and deduction of 5 points. The rules for the subject two test of applying for a motor vehicle driver's license state that any of the following actions will result in failure: stopping or rolling back during the test, not following the voice prompts, wheels pressing the line, or the car body pressing the line. Many students encounter the issue of pressing the line during subject two learning, and the most common mistake leading to failure is "pressing the line." The main reason for wheels pressing the line is that students fail to grasp the correct timing for steering. Besides missing the right moment to steer, another reason could be that the speed of steering does not match the speed of the car. Subject two deduction standards: Not wearing a seatbelt: deduct 100 points. Starting the engine without the gear in neutral: deduct 100 points. Not using the turn signal (including starting, changing lanes, overtaking, turning, and parking by the roadside); turning on the turn signal for less than three seconds (note this is easily overlooked!); forgetting to turn off the turn signal or using it incorrectly: deduct 10 points. Stalling once: deduct 10 points. Reverse parking: Not following the prescribed route sequence: deduct 100 points. Car body out of line: deduct 100 points. Not entering the parking space: deduct 100 points. Before reversing, not having both front wheels touch the ground beyond the control line: deduct 100 points. Exceeding 210 seconds to complete the task: deduct 100 points. Stopping midway for more than 2 seconds: deduct 5 points each time. Slope parking and starting: After the vehicle stops, if the front bumper is not on the pole line and exceeds 50 cm front or back: deduct 100 points. After the vehicle stops, if the front bumper is not on the pole line but does not exceed 50 cm front or back: deduct 10 points. After the vehicle stops, if the starting time exceeds 30 seconds: deduct 100 points. Wheels pressing the road edge line while driving: deduct 100 points. Rolling back more than 30 cm when starting: deduct 100 points. After the vehicle stops, if the car body is more than 50 cm from the road edge line: deduct 100 points. After parking, not tightening the parking brake: deduct 10 points each time. After the vehicle stops, if the car body is more than 30 cm but not more than 50 cm from the road edge line: deduct 10 points each time. Rolling back more than 10 cm but less than 30 cm when starting: deduct 5 points each time. Parallel parking: After the vehicle enters the parking space and stops, if the car body is out of line: deduct 100 points. Not using or incorrectly using the turn signal when entering the parking space: deduct 10 points. Exceeding 90 seconds to complete the task: deduct 100 points. Touching the parking space edge line with the car body while driving: deduct 10 points each time. Wheels touching the lane edge line while driving: deduct 10 points each time. Stopping midway for more than 2 seconds: deduct 5 points each time. Right-angle turn: Wheels pressing the road edge line: deduct 100 points. Not using or incorrectly using the turn signal when turning, or not turning off the turn signal after turning: deduct 10 points. Stopping midway for more than 2 seconds: deduct 5 points each time. Curve driving: Wheels pressing the road edge line: deduct 100 points. Stopping midway for more than 2 seconds: deduct 100 points. Not driving in second gear or above: deduct 5 points.

Do All Passats Burn Engine Oil?

Not all Passats experience engine oil burning. Only about 30% of vehicles from the same production batch may exhibit this issue. Oil burning in Passats is not unmanageable and can be entirely prevented with minimal cost and simple methods. Below is an introduction to Passat oil burning issues: 1. First, regularly add fuel additives to gasoline to maintain fuel system cleanliness, inhibit carbon deposits, and improve combustion efficiency. Second, incorporate all-in-one high-performance additives into the engine oil to enhance its properties, such as cleaning, lubrication, protection, and temperature control, thereby reducing engine contamination and avoiding wear. This addresses the issues of poor fuel and oil quality. 2. Engine oil burning is a common phenomenon, affecting models like Audi and Passat. The primary cause is the cast-iron engine. Oil burning is most noticeable during high-speed driving. Burning engine oil is as normal as burning gasoline or diesel, except that the oil consumption during normal engine operation is significantly lower than fuel consumption.
