Audi isn't just a car brand in my eyes—it has a fascinating backstory. The name comes from the Latin word for 'listen,' because founder August Horch's original company was named Horch, meaning 'to listen.' Later, he chose Audi as the new brand, preserving that meaning. As a car enthusiast, I particularly love the history behind Audi's four-ring logo, which represents the merger of four former German companies, symbolizing unity and innovation. Today, Audi is part of the Volkswagen Group, focusing on the luxury car market, with models like the A3 and A6 showcasing exceptional craftsmanship. Driving a friend's A4, I was deeply impressed by its driver-assistance systems, such as adaptive cruise control, which made highway driving much more relaxing. Audi also excels in motorsports, with multiple wins at the Le Mans endurance race—this heritage makes it even cooler. Overall, Audi isn't just a car name; it embodies German industrial spirit and a premium driving experience, making you feel proud behind the wheel.

What are the differences between 5w30 and 10w40?

The differences between 5w30 and 10w40 lie in viscosity, minimum temperature tolerance, performance, and vehicle applicability as follows: Different viscosity: 10W40 engine oil has higher viscosity, while 5W30 has relatively lower viscosity. Different minimum temperature tolerance: 5W30 oil can adapt to lower temperatures than 10W40. The "W" stands for winter, and the number before it indicates the lower environmental temperature it can withstand. The smaller this number, the better the engine protection during cold starts. Different vehicle applicability: Higher viscosity oils (with larger numbers) may be more suitable for high-speed driving or heavy-load vehicles. For older vehicles, using 10W-40 oil may result in slightly louder engine noise compared to 5W-30. Different performance: Compared to 10w40, 5w30 performs better during cold starts due to its lower viscosity, resulting in quieter operation. The viscosity of engine oil changes with temperature, so special attention should be paid to its performance under both low and high temperatures. For 5W-30, the first number indicates low-temperature fluidity - 5W means it can withstand -30°C (the smaller this number, the better the low-temperature fluidity: 0W is -35℃; 5W is -30℃; 10W is -25℃; 15W is -20℃; 20W is -15℃; 25W is -10℃). Better low-temperature fluidity means smoother cold starts and better engine protection. The second number represents the oil's kinematic viscosity at 100°C - higher numbers indicate better ability to maintain viscosity at high temperatures, which can be understood as better lubrication performance under high-temperature conditions. Engine oil viscosity should not be too high or too low. If the viscosity is too low, it will increase engine wear. If the viscosity is too high, it will increase engine resistance during operation, leading to reduced power and increased fuel consumption. When the engine is running, the oil forms a film on the surface of various components, reducing friction between them and lowering operating resistance. If the oil viscosity is too low, it cannot form a stable oil film, which will accelerate engine wear. For full synthetic oil, the recommended replacement interval is one year or 10,000 kilometers. For semi-synthetic oil, the replacement interval is slightly shorter, requiring replacement every 7,000 kilometers or six months. When choosing engine oil, there are the following considerations:

When Can I Schedule the Subject 3 Driving Test?

Generally, you can schedule the Subject 3 driving test 10-20 days after passing the Subject 2 test. However, the exact scheduling time depends on the local number of test-takers and the regulations of the vehicle management office. According to Article 47 of the 'Regulations on the Application and Use of Motor Vehicle Driving Licenses,' each subject can be tested once, and if you fail, you can retake it once. If you do not attend the retest or fail the retest, the current test session will be terminated, and the applicant must reschedule the test. However, Subject 2 and Subject 3 tests must be rescheduled at least 10 days later. If you fail the Subject 3 safe and civilized driving knowledge test, the passing score for the road driving skills test remains valid. Within the validity period of the driving study certificate, the number of scheduling attempts for Subject 2 and Subject 3 road driving skills tests must not exceed five times each. If you fail the fifth attempt, the passing scores of other subjects will be invalidated. Subject 3 includes the road driving skills test and the safe and civilized driving knowledge test. It is part of the motor vehicle driving license assessment and is the abbreviated name for the road driving skills and safe and civilized driving knowledge test in the motor vehicle driver's exam. The content of the road driving skills test varies depending on the type of vehicle you are licensed to drive. Subject 3 Scheduling Tips: Schedule as early as possible within the system's available time slots for students. Avoid peak scheduling times, meaning do not choose test sessions marked as crowded. Prioritize scheduling test sessions with higher rankings. For Subject 3 test scheduling, whether successful or not, you will be notified via SMS. Generally, the system will send an SMS notification to the test-taker after announcing the results. If you do not receive an immediate notification, you will receive the SMS at least 5-10 days before the test date. If you cannot attend the test due to personal reasons, you must cancel at least one day in advance. Otherwise, an absence will be treated as a fail, and you will waste one test attempt (initial test + retest). Subject 3 only allows five test attempts. If you fail the fifth attempt, all previously passed subjects will be invalidated, and you must start over from Subject 1. Road Test Items: Vehicle preparation, starting, straight-line driving, lane changing, passing intersections, pulling over, crossing pedestrian crosswalks, passing school zones, passing bus stops, meeting vehicles, overtaking, U-turns, and nighttime driving. Provincial public security traffic management departments may add test items for specific vehicle types based on local conditions. The safe and civilized driving knowledge test includes: requirements for safe and civilized driving operations, safe driving knowledge in adverse weather and complex road conditions, emergency handling methods for situations like tire blowouts, and post-accident handling knowledge. Applicants for a motor vehicle driving license must pass the following four subjects: Traffic safety laws, regulations, and related knowledge (Subject 1), site driving skills (Subject 2), road driving skills (Subject 3), and safe and civilized driving knowledge (Subject 4). The test sequence is Subject 1, Subject 2, Subject 3, and Subject 4. You can only take the next subject after passing the previous one. Subject 3 Driving Test Notes: Do not shift gears consecutively, e.g., from 2nd to 3rd gear. You must drive a certain distance before shifting to 4th gear. Do not change lanes consecutively (i.e., do not change two lanes at once). For example, if changing from Lane 1 to Lane 2, you must drive a certain distance before changing to Lane 3. Avoid coasting in neutral, meaning do not drive with the clutch partially engaged. Ensure the gear matches the speed. For 1st gear, the speed should be 0–15 km/h; for 2nd gear, 0–25 km/h; for 3rd gear, 10–35 km/h; and for 4th gear, 20–45 km/h. When changing lanes, avoid excessive turning to prevent the front or rear of the vehicle from crossing the line (the system may judge this as crossing the line). Shifting gears must be done one gear at a time with full clutch engagement before shifting to the next gear. Do not stay in neutral for more than 5 seconds while driving. Generally, you do not need to use the handbrake when stopping, and you do not need to use the turn signal when starting, except for specific test items. Through repeated practice, the best way to shift gears is to fully release the clutch, wait a few seconds, and then press the clutch again to shift to the next gear. You can start in 2nd gear throughout the process. At traffic lights, you can stop in 2nd gear by pressing the clutch for a long time (but avoid coasting in neutral). Avoid stopping before intersections or crosswalks, except in U-turn zones. Night Test Notes: Nighttime driving mainly tests the use of lights. Nighttime lights serve both illumination and signaling purposes. To inform other road users, turn on the lights when they can outline the vehicle. Before starting at night, turn on the lights, check the road and surroundings, and start only when it is safe. When stopping, turn off the lights after the vehicle is fully stopped. Different lighting conditions require different light usage: On well-lit roads with streetlights, use low beams. On poorly lit roads without streetlights, use low beams if the speed is below 30 km/h and high beams if the speed is above 30 km/h. When following another vehicle at night at close range, use low beams and maintain a safe distance. Observe the leading vehicle's signal lights and be ready to slow down or stop. Control your speed so that you can safely stop within the illuminated distance in case of an emergency. When overtaking at night on unlit roads, turn on the left turn signal and alternate between high and low beams to alert the vehicle being overtaken. After confirming the leading vehicle yields, switch to low beams to overtake. When your vehicle's lights are at the same level as the overtaken vehicle's lights and there is no oncoming traffic, switch to high beams. After overtaking, leave enough safe distance, then turn on the right turn signal and gradually return to the original lane.
