Keyless entry function failure means the car cannot detect the key, rendering the function inoperative. The most common cause is low battery in either the key or the car. Solutions include replacing the battery, recharging, or temporarily using the spare mechanical key on the key fob. Reasons for function failure: When the car suddenly cannot detect the key, it may be due to electromagnetic interference from nearby signal sources such as surveillance cameras, telecommunication towers, or high-voltage power lines. These can generate interfering signals that prevent the car from detecting the key. If the smart key's battery is depleted, the start system may fail to sense the weak radio waves emitted by the key. In such cases, even with the key inside the car, the dashboard may display "key matching error". Keyless entry system: The automotive keyless entry system, abbreviated as PKE (PASSIVE-KEYLESS-ENTER), incorporates the world's most advanced RFID radio frequency technology and vehicle identity coding recognition system. It pioneers a miniaturized, low-power RF antenna development solution, successfully integrating remote control systems with keyless systems while maintaining traditional vehicle circuit protection. This achieves a true dual RF system with double anti-theft protection, providing maximum convenience and security for car owners. The "automotive keyless system" is not a traditional key but rather a smart key or smart card.

What is the minimum ground clearance of the Lincoln Nautilus?

The ground clearance of the Lincoln Nautilus is 159cm when fully loaded and approximately 200cm when unloaded. The vehicle dimensions are 4849×1936×1681mm (length×width×height). Minimum ground clearance refers to the distance between the lowest point of the vehicle (excluding the wheels) and the supporting surface when the vehicle is fully loaded and stationary. It is used to indicate the vehicle's ability to pass over obstacles such as rocks and tree stumps without collision. Below are specific details about ground clearance: 1. Large ground clearance: The greater the minimum ground clearance, the stronger the vehicle's ability to pass over obstacles or uneven terrain, but the higher the center of gravity, which reduces stability. 2. Small ground clearance: The smaller the minimum ground clearance, the weaker the vehicle's ability to pass over obstacles or uneven terrain, but the lower the center of gravity, which can enhance stability.

What Causes the Squeaking Sound When Turning the Tiguan at Low Speed?

Tiguan produces a squeaking sound when turning at low speed due to the following reasons: 1. Friction between the steering column and floor mat: If the abnormal sound comes from below the steering wheel when turning, check the steering column and car floor mat. An oversized aftermarket floor mat may directly contact the steering column, causing friction during rotation. Lack of lubrication can lead to squeaking, which can be resolved by applying lubricant. 2. Lack of lubrication in the shock absorber top bearing: If the abnormal sound comes from outside the vehicle when turning, it might be due to insufficient lubrication in the shock absorber's top bearing. Open the hood and listen if the sound originates from the shock absorber's top mount. If confirmed, applying grease can solve the issue. 3. Dirty power steering fluid: Contaminated power steering fluid increases system pressure, causing abnormal noises from the power steering pump. Timely replacement of the power steering fluid is necessary.

In the same class, the FAW-Volkswagen CC 2021 330TSI Glamour has a combined fuel consumption of 6.4L/100KM, while the Cadillac CT4 2022 28T Fashion has a combined fuel consumption of 6.7L/100KM. Factors affecting a car's fuel consumption: Driving habits: Aggressive driving, such as sudden acceleration, frequent overtaking, and not easing off the throttle before red lights, increases fuel consumption. The car itself: Cars with larger displacement generally consume more fuel than those with smaller displacement because larger displacement usually means higher power, requiring more gasoline for combustion. Heavier cars also consume more fuel due to the greater driving torque needed.
