What causes the right side to be too wide when reversing into the right-side parking space?

Main reasons include the following: 1: The timing of turning right when entering the parking space was too late. 2: The car was not properly aligned before reversing, with the front of the car tilted toward the right front. 3: The rearview mirror angle was not adjusted correctly. If the right side is wider than the left, it indicates the direction was turned too late, and the steering wheel must be fully turned first. Correct steps are as follows: Step 1: Enter the test area. The parking space has two orientations—one facing right and the other left. Shift into first gear and slowly drive into the test area, ensuring the car body is about 1.5 meters from the left line. Stop when the driver aligns with the white line. Step 2: Shift into reverse gear. When the rearview mirror and the white line form a certain angle, fully turn the steering wheel to the right. Continue reversing. Step 3: Check the right rearview mirror to observe the distance between the right rear wheel and the corner of the parking space. If the distance is less than 30 cm, slightly adjust the steering wheel back. The smaller the distance, the more you need to adjust. Once the distance is appropriate, fully turn the steering wheel again to avoid crossing the line. If the distance is greater than 30 cm, keep the steering wheel fully turned without adjustment—this indicates the initial turn was too late. Step 4: Watch the right rearview mirror. Once the car body aligns parallel with the right line, immediately straighten the steering wheel. Step 5: Look at the left rearview mirror. Stop when the mirror and the parking space line form a certain angle. Step 6: Drive out of the parking space. Shift into first gear and slowly exit. Watch the left rearview mirror, and the moment you see the parking space line in the mirror, immediately fully turn the steering wheel to the right. Straighten the steering wheel once the car is aligned.

What is the function of the button on the side of the driver's door of the Audi A6L?

The button on the side of the driver's door of the Audi A6L is for the infrared anti-theft alarm. When this switch is turned on, the alarm will sound if there is movement inside the car while it is locked, preventing accidental locking of children or pets inside the vehicle. The active infrared alarm emits infrared rays, which bounce back upon hitting an obstacle and are received by the alarm's sensor. Below is some relevant information about the Audi A6L:1. Wheelbase: Generally around 3.0 to 3.1 meters;2. Displacement: Typically between 2.4 and 3.2 liters;3. Interior Features: Equipped with a luxury automatic climate control system, featuring a digital display control panel that allows passengers and the driver to independently adjust temperature and airflow.

What does the Audi quattro logo mean?

Audi quattro refers to Audi's permanent all-wheel drive technology. Here are the relevant details: 1. Permanent all-wheel drive: In the drivetrain system of a permanent all-wheel drive vehicle, a center differential is installed to distribute power to the front and rear drive axles. Unlike part-time four-wheel drive or on-demand four-wheel drive, permanent all-wheel drive vehicles maintain four-wheel drive at all times during operation. Depending on road conditions, the center differential allocates engine power to the front and rear wheels in a certain proportion. 2. Precautions: When towing the vehicle on a dolly, only the front wheels should be secured, while the rear two wheels continue to roll freely. In this situation, the multi-plate clutch rapidly increases its engagement level, causing the towed vehicle's rear wheels to transmit kinetic energy to the center differential. The center differential will generate significant heat due to reverse friction, ultimately leading to burnout. Therefore, permanent all-wheel drive vehicles should not be towed.

Why does the steering wheel shake at 120 km/h after changing new tires?

This situation is most commonly caused by issues with the car tires. When the mass distribution of various parts of the tire is uneven, it can lead to dynamic imbalance when the wheels rotate at high speeds, resulting in severe steering wheel vibration during driving. In this case, it's necessary to perform a four-wheel alignment and dynamic balancing on the car tires. Here are the solutions: 1. Check if the tread is cracked. Aged tire rubber hardens and cracks, indicating the tire has reached its replacement limit, with reduced grip and increased risk of rupture due to external impacts while driving. 2. Check if the tread is cut or punctured by nails. These can cause air leaks and eventual tire blowouts, posing safety hazards if not detected in time. 3. After a tire impact, promptly check for bulges on the tread. A bulge indicates broken sidewall cords, signaling potential imminent tire failure. 4. Visit a tire repair shop to use a tire balancing machine to identify imbalance points and determine appropriate counterweights. It's best to balance all four tires together, or at least the two front tires.

Can vehicle demerit points be handled online?

Both demerit points and fines can be processed online, but demerit points can only be deducted from your own license. If you want to use someone else's driver's license to deduct points, you still need to go to the traffic police station. Here is the relevant information: 1. The scope of online traffic violation fines includes: violations recorded on traffic cards; paper fines issued for driver traffic violations; non-on-site violations of locally licensed vehicles (applicable to summary procedures), where the parties have no objections, can be processed and paid through electronic banking. 2. Notes: Violations that require demerit points cannot be paid online. Violations that can be paid online do not require demerit points. After paying the violation fine, the violation record will be unlocked and cleared within 24 hours. According to current regulations, paper fines need to be paid at the bank where the violation occurred. Late payments will incur late fees.
