MG Roewe SAS stands for Speed Assistance System. Speed Assistance System: When the system is in standby mode, if the turn signal is activated before crossing the lane marking, there will be no warning because the system recognizes an intentional lane change. Since this system is designed for driving on highways and well-maintained rural roads, it only becomes active when the vehicle speed exceeds approximately 65 km/h. Vehicle Assistance System: The BAS (Brake Assist System) is designed for situations where 90% of drivers in emergencies do not brake decisively enough. The Brake Assist System detects the situation the vehicle is in based on the speed at which the driver presses the brake pedal.

Recently, I encountered the 'SAS Uncalibrated' warning while driving and finally understood what it meant. This indicates that the steering angle sensor in my MG GS isn't calibrated properly, usually occurring after a battery replacement or power loss when the system loses its initial data. The sensor's role is to detect the steering wheel angle, ensuring stable operation of the electric power steering. When uncalibrated, the steering becomes heavier with insufficient assistance, and the dashboard may even light up a warning, affecting driving safety. I drove to a repair shop where the technician quickly resolved the issue by recalibrating the sensor using a diagnostic computer. Afterwards, they advised maintaining battery health and avoiding sudden power loss to prevent this issue. Simply put, if you encounter this problem, don't delay—address it early for peace of mind.

As an automotive system enthusiast, SAS uncalibrated refers to the steering angle sensor not being calibrated, which may be caused by ECU reset, software errors, or hardware interference. The sensor is responsible for recognizing the steering wheel position, and lack of calibration can cause the system to misjudge the angle, leading to heavy steering, unstable control, or EPS failure. From my experience, when you notice the warning, reduce your speed and drive to a professional facility for calibration using diagnostic equipment—it only takes a few minutes. In regular maintenance, keeping the electrical system stable, such as updating software and avoiding battery modifications, can reduce the likelihood of such failures. This issue is common but not complicated; timely repair ensures smooth driving.

What are the troubleshooting methods for unstable car idling?

There are several troubleshooting methods for unstable car idling: 1. Check for air leaks at the intake pipe, PVC valve hose, and oil dipstick; 2. Inspect whether the air filter element is too dirty; 3. Verify the normal operation of the cold start injector and temperature-time control switch; 4. Check if the fuel system pressure is too low; 5. Examine the injector spray pattern; 6. Inspect cylinder pressure and valve clearance; 7. Check the ECU; 8. Replace electrical components. When the engine operates normally at medium to high speeds but exhibits unstable idling or even stalls at idle or near-idle speeds, this indicates an idling malfunction.

What to Do When a Car Catches Fire?

When a car catches fire, the following steps should be taken: 1. If the car engine catches fire, the driver should stop the vehicle immediately, allow passengers to open the doors and exit, then cut off the power supply, with special attention to protecting the fuel tank and the radiator containing antifreeze; 2. If a fire breaks out during refueling, stop fueling immediately, quickly drive the car out of the gas station, and use a fire extinguisher or clothing to extinguish the flames on the fuel tank. Common causes of car fires include: 1. Damage to the gasoline pipeline; 2. Short circuits caused by damaged electrical insulation leading to fires; 3. Friction between damaged or detached car parts and the ground, igniting combustible materials; 4. Items such as gloves, rags, or gauze left on the exhaust pipe after car maintenance, which can ignite due to high temperatures.

Warranty: 3 Years or 100,000 Kilometers?

Warranty is valid for 3 years or 100,000 kilometers, whichever comes first. The meaning of a 3-year or 100,000-kilometer vehicle warranty is that the manufacturer will repair or replace any quality issues free of charge within this period. After exceeding 3 years or 100,000 kilometers, the vehicle will no longer be covered by the warranty. Here are the relevant details: 1. Warranty Conditions: Many car manufacturers offer a warranty of 3 years or 100,000 kilometers. Once the vehicle has been used for more than 3 years or has traveled over 100,000 kilometers, it will no longer be covered by the warranty. Whichever condition is met first will determine the end of the warranty period. For example, if the vehicle has been used for 3 years but has not exceeded 100,000 kilometers, it will still be considered out of warranty, and vice versa. 2. Warranty Coverage: The warranty period and mileage do not apply to all vehicle components. Different parts have different warranty durations. Components like the battery, wipers, and rubber-based equipment generally have shorter warranty periods. The 3-year or 100,000-kilometer warranty often mentioned by 4S shops usually refers to the three major components of the car, which buyers should be aware of when purchasing.

Do You Need to Check Traffic Lights When Making a Right Turn?

When making a right turn, drivers must observe traffic lights, which come in two types: circular traffic lights and arrow-shaped traffic lights. When turning right, if the traffic light is circular and there are no auxiliary signs prohibiting a right turn on red, drivers do not need to wait for the light to turn green to make the right turn. If the traffic light is arrow-shaped, drivers cannot turn right when the right-turn arrow is red. They must wait until the right-turn arrow turns green; otherwise, they may be penalized for running a red light. Legal Regulations: According to the Road Traffic Safety Law, the regulations regarding traffic lights are as follows: Article 25, Section 2 states that traffic signals include traffic lights, traffic signs, road markings, and the directions of traffic police. Article 26 specifies that traffic lights consist of red, green, and yellow lights. A red light indicates prohibition, a green light permits passage, and a yellow light serves as a warning. Article 38 requires vehicles and pedestrians to follow traffic signals. If a traffic officer is directing traffic on-site, their directions must be followed. On roads without traffic signals, passage should be made under the principles of safety and smooth traffic flow. Article 62 states that pedestrians crossing intersections or roads should use crosswalks or pedestrian facilities. At intersections with traffic lights, pedestrians must follow the signals. At intersections without traffic lights or crosswalks, or when crossing roads without pedestrian facilities, pedestrians should ensure safety before proceeding. Article 89 stipulates that pedestrians, passengers, or non-motor vehicle drivers violating road traffic laws and regulations may receive a warning or a fine ranging from 5 to 50 yuan. Non-motor vehicle drivers who refuse to pay the fine may have their vehicles impounded. Motor vehicle drivers who violate traffic light rules will receive 6 penalty points. Right-Turn Precautions: Observe oncoming straight-moving vehicles: When making a right turn, drivers must check both the right and left sides for approaching vehicles. Watch for left-turning vehicles from the opposite direction: In addition to checking for straight-moving vehicles, drivers should also look for left-turning vehicles from the opposite side. When turning right, yield to vehicles coming from the left, whether they are turning left or going straight. Be mindful of pedestrians: When turning right, drivers should watch for pedestrians not only at crosswalks before the intersection but also at crosswalks around the corner.
