AFS stands for Adaptive Front-lighting System. It dynamically adjusts the headlights based on the steering wheel angle, vehicle yaw rate, and driving speed to adapt to the current turning angle, ensuring the light direction aligns with the vehicle's current driving direction for optimal illumination of the road ahead. Below is more information about AFS: 1. The AFS system comes in three forms: first, the swiveling headlight type, where the headlight units can rotate 8 to 15 degrees left or right to illuminate blind spots in curves. Second, an independent cornering lighting system, where a fixed bulb inside the headlight unit shines towards the curve and automatically turns on during turns. Third, using the left and right fog lights for cornering illumination, where the corresponding inner fog light turns on during a turn to light up blind spots in the curve. 2. The structure of the car's adaptive front-lighting system consists of three main components: sensor modules, an electronic control unit, and actuators. Since it needs to make comprehensive judgments on various vehicle driving states, AFS is inherently a complex multi-input, multi-output system. Its development has significantly contributed to nighttime driving safety.

The AFS in Camry refers to the Adaptive Front-lighting System, which is a thoughtful feature in Toyota vehicles. It automatically adjusts the headlight angle based on your driving direction. When you turn, the lights follow the steering movement, illuminating the inside of the curve to reduce blind spots and improve visibility during turns. I often notice while driving the Camry that this system significantly enhances safety during nighttime or foggy conditions, making it easier to handle complex road situations. The system relies on internal sensors to detect steering wheel movements and vehicle speed, intelligently controlling the light beam without requiring manual intervention. Regular maintenance simply involves checking the bulbs and wiring to ensure proper operation. Overall, this is a standard highlight in the Camry, reducing driving fatigue and making every trip more secure and reliable.

What Brand is the Original Battery for the Sagitar?

The original battery for the Sagitar is a Fengfan maintenance-free battery with a capacity of 60Ah. Different versions may have varying battery power, so the models are not identical. Steps to replace the battery: Open the trunk, lift the floor panel, and remove the spare tire; use tools to loosen the screws and remove the battery; then install the new battery, which is relatively simple—place it in position, connect the positive and negative terminals correctly, and tighten the nuts; afterward, put the spare tire back and cover the floor panel. Battery: It is a type of storage battery that works by converting chemical energy into electrical energy. Typically, the term 'battery' refers to a lead-acid battery, which mainly uses lead and its oxides as electrodes and a sulfuric acid solution as the electrolyte.

What is the tire model and specification for the Leiling?

Leiling's tire size is 205/55-R16. Function of Toyota Leiling tires: As one of the most important components of a car, Toyota Leiling tires are responsible for supporting the entire vehicle body and transmitting direction; forming good contact with the ground to ensure safe driving on the road. Introduction to tire replacement: When replacing tires, the specifications must match those of the original vehicle tires. Wheels on the same axle should also have consistent specifications, and the tread patterns and groove depths of the tires should be similar. Especially for four-wheel-drive vehicles, it is best to replace all tires at once. Replacing only two may result in inconsistent friction coefficients, leading to increased fuel consumption.

Where is the Touareg nameplate located?

The Touareg nameplate is located on the B-pillar of the front passenger side, visible upon opening the door. Method to check the nameplate: Open the car door, pull the hood release lever located on the left side of the driver's seat leg area; lift the engine hood upwards; use the support rod to prop up the hood to see the nameplate, but ensure the support is secure to avoid any hazards. Vehicle nameplate: It is a plate indicating the basic characteristics of the vehicle. It mainly includes the manufacturer's brand, model, engine power, total weight, load capacity or passenger capacity, manufacturing number, production date, and manufacturer's name, primarily composed of 17 alphanumeric characters.

What are the reasons for the Touareg brake pedal not returning to position?

Touareg brake pedal not returning to position may be caused by the following reasons: Problem with the return spring: A broken or weakened return spring can easily cause the brake not to return. Simply replace the brake pedal return spring. Brake caliper seizure: Seizure of the brake caliper piston can cause braking resistance. The brake caliper remains fixed, and when braking, the caliper clamps the brake disc to complete the braking action. If the caliper is seized, not only will the brake pedal fail to return, but the vehicle will also be unable to move forward. Replace the brake caliper to resolve this issue. Brake pad issues: Contamination of front and rear brake pads by lubricating oil or brake fluid, wear or damage to the brake pads, polished brake pads, or deformation due to overheating can also easily cause the brake not to return. Direct replacement of the brake pads is necessary.

What are the reasons for slow acceleration and insufficient power in the Tiguan?

The reasons for slow acceleration and insufficient power in the Tiguan are as follows: Fuel system malfunction: The engine fuel system is a common problem area in vehicles. Clogged fuel injectors, leaking fuel lines, reduced fuel pump power, or a blocked fuel filter can all lead to poor acceleration. Air intake system malfunction: In addition to fuel, the engine requires air. If components such as the air filter or throttle valve are clogged or malfunctioning, resulting in insufficient air intake, it can also cause poor acceleration. Mechanical failure: Engine mechanical failure mainly refers to low cylinder pressure. Possible causes include poor valve sealing, excessive wear of cylinder liners and pistons, etc. Additionally, excessive engine carbon buildup can also result in poor acceleration. Clutch malfunction: In manual transmission models, clutch malfunction can cause the engine speed to increase during acceleration while the vehicle speed does not rise. Dual-clutch automatic transmissions can also experience similar issues.

Why is the Sagitar malfunction indicator light on?

The reasons for the Sagitar malfunction indicator light being on are as follows: Failure to maintain the car in time: The vehicle has a certain maintenance cycle. If not maintained on schedule, coupled with poor driving habits, it will increase the burden on the engine operation, causing the engine malfunction indicator light to turn on. Car self-check: This is the car's self-check behavior, which means the car automatically checks whether there are any problems with each module after ignition. If there are no problems, the malfunction indicator light will automatically turn off. This is a normal phenomenon. Sensor damage: Including water temperature, crankshaft position, air flow, intake temperature, oxygen sensor, etc. When these sensors are damaged, have poor contact, or signal interruption, the car's ECU cannot accurately obtain the engine data, which will cause the engine malfunction indicator light to turn on.
