brake-booster is a warning light for the braking system, which typically illuminates when the handbrake is engaged. If the warning light remains on after releasing the handbrake, it may indicate a malfunction in the brake booster. In such cases, it's necessary to inspect braking components such as brake fluid and handbrake, and generally requires a visit to a repair station for diagnosis and servicing. Additional information: 1. Reasons for brake-booster light illumination: handbrake not fully released, insufficient brake fluid, or brake pads worn beyond their limit. 2. Brake light illumination: The brake warning light normally remains off. If illuminated, it indicates the braking system is in operation - typically occurring when pulling the handbrake or applying the foot brake, and should automatically turn off after braking is completed. If the brake indicator remains constantly lit, it signifies a malfunction in the braking system.

What is the fuel consumption per 100 kilometers for Volkswagen?

Volkswagen cars consume 7 liters of fuel per 100 kilometers. Here is the extended content: 1. The measurement of fuel consumption per 100 kilometers is conducted by the manufacturer under specified conditions such as temperature, wind direction, and wind speed. The vehicle is maintained at a certain speed on a flat road or on a chassis dynamometer, and then the fuel consumption is calculated using exhaust gas analyzers and the carbon balance method. 2. The laboratory data for fuel consumption per 100 kilometers is derived. Since most vehicles approach their most economical speed at 90 kilometers per hour, the theoretical fuel consumption often published is the steady-speed fuel consumption per 100 kilometers at 90 km/h. 3. Steady-speed fuel consumption refers to the fuel economy indicator when a car is driving at a constant speed on a good road surface. Since steady-speed driving is a basic operating condition for cars on highways, and this type of fuel consumption is easy to measure, it is widely adopted.

How many points are deducted for a private car carrying one extra passenger?

A private car carrying one extra passenger will be deducted 2 points and fined, while a passenger vehicle carrying one extra passenger will be deducted 6 points. According to regulations, motor vehicles must not carry more passengers than the approved capacity, and passenger vehicles must not carry cargo in violation of the rules. Below is an introduction to the hazards of vehicle overloading: 1. Overloading reduces the braking and steering performance of the vehicle: Excessive load increases the vehicle's inertia, lengthens the braking distance, and raises the risk of accidents. The doubled total load weakens braking effectiveness on slopes, reduces turning sensitivity, and increases the likelihood of accidents such as brake failure, rollback, and tire blowouts. 2. Overloading also affects the vehicle's steering performance: For example, it may cause the steering wheel to feel light and shaky, increasing the risk of accidents due to loss of steering control. Driving an overloaded vehicle reduces stability, increases centrifugal force, and makes vehicle control more difficult, especially when encountering curves, slopes, or emergencies, leading to accidents due to delayed reactions or inadequate control.

Why is the Mazda engine start-up noise so loud?

Mazda's loud cold start noise is due to the arrangement of the exhaust manifold, which positions the three-way catalytic converter too far back. The three-way catalytic converter must reach a certain temperature to effectively filter exhaust gases. Therefore, to rapidly heat up the three-way catalytic converter, the exhaust valve closure is deliberately delayed during cold starts, causing the air-fuel mixture to enter the exhaust manifold and undergo detonation, resulting in the loud cold start noise. More information about Mazda is as follows: Overview: Mazda, officially known as Mazda Motor Corporation, is a Japanese multinational automaker listed on the Tokyo Stock Exchange (TYO). Its business scope includes passenger cars, automobile manufacturing, and sales. Models: Mazda's global passenger car lineup includes: SUV series CX-3, CX-30, CX-4, CX-5, CX-8, CX-9, MX-30; Sedan series Mazda2, Mazda3, Mazda6 (known as "Atenza" by FAW Car); Sports car MX-5.

What is the normal oil pressure for a Cummins engine?

Cummins engine's normal oil pressure should be no less than 321 kPa at rated speed of 3200 r/min, and no less than 69 kPa at idle speed of 750 r/min. The automobile engine is one of the most important components of a vehicle. Below are detailed introductions about automobile engines: Overview: The automobile engine is the device that provides power for the vehicle, determining its power performance, fuel economy, stability, and environmental protection. Depending on the power source, automobile engines can be divided into diesel engines, gasoline engines, electric vehicle motors, and hybrid power systems, among others. Others: Common gasoline and diesel engines belong to reciprocating piston internal combustion engines, capable of converting the chemical energy of fuel into the mechanical energy of piston motion and outputting power. Gasoline engines feature high rotational speed, small mass, low noise, easy starting, and low manufacturing cost. Diesel engines have large compression ratios and high thermal efficiency, with better economic performance and emission performance than gasoline engines.

What is the distance from the side line when reversing into the garage?

The distance from the side line when reversing into the garage should be maintained between 30 to 50 centimeters. Here is the extended content: 1. Reversing into the garage is an assessment point in the driver's test. It involves maneuvering the vehicle correctly into the garage from both sides while in motion. 2. During the test, the position of the infrared probe is such that if the vehicle body blocks the infrared, an alarm will sound, resulting in test failure. 3. After entering the car, the driver should first adjust the seat and rearview mirrors, fasten the seatbelt, then shift the car into reverse gear, release the parking brake lever, and start reversing at idle speed. The driver observes the garage through the right rear window. 4. When the black edge of the right rear window aligns with the right side line of the garage, turn the steering wheel steadily to the right to its limit. 5. After the car enters the garage, the driver should look back and observe the left rearview mirror. When the entire left side line of the garage appears, immediately straighten the steering wheel. 6. When the left door handle is level with the bottom line of the garage as seen in the left rearview mirror, stop immediately.
