The appearance of an exclamation mark on the car dashboard indicates an abnormality or fault in the corresponding system. There are many indicator lights on the car dashboard with exclamation marks, such as the tire pressure indicator, lighting fault indicator, steering system fault indicator, brake system fault light, transmission fault indicator, and wiper fault indicator. Below is a detailed introduction to the exclamation mark warning lights: General Faults: A triangle with an exclamation mark inside. If this symbol lights up, it indicates a fault in the car's general performance, components, or functions. Main issues include parking sensor faults, fuel cutoff system intervention or faults, external light faults, engine oil pressure sensor faults, etc. It is necessary to go to a 4S shop for inspection to identify the source of the fault. Automatic Transmission Fault: A yellow gear with an exclamation mark inside. This is the automatic transmission fault warning light, indicating a fault in the transmission or transmission lubricant below the normal range. The transmission oil should be replaced promptly. Brake System Fault: A circle with parentheses and an exclamation mark in the middle. This represents a warning for the brake system, mainly indicating a brake system fault or low brake fluid level. The brake system should be inspected immediately to avoid accidents. Abnormal Tire Pressure: A horizontal line with parentheses and an exclamation mark in the middle. This represents the tire pressure monitoring warning light, which lights up when the car's tire pressure is too low. Check the car's tire pressure and restore it to the normal range. Lighting Fault: A yellow bulb with an exclamation mark. This is the lighting fault indicator, indicating a fault in the car lights. Solution: Go to a 4S shop for inspection as soon as possible, or check it yourself, focusing on commonly used bulbs such as turn signals, fog lights, and interior lights, to identify the problem. In addition, during daily use of the vehicle, the fault lights displayed on the vehicle dashboard are divided into two different colors: yellow and red: Yellow indicates a fault in the corresponding system, but the problem is not very serious. Reduce speed and proceed to the corresponding repair point for maintenance to eliminate potential safety hazards in time. Red indicates a very serious problem in the corresponding system. In this case, do not continue driving. Pull over immediately and call for professional help to prevent unpredictable dangers to the vehicle and personal safety from forced driving. It should be noted that when the car is started, all lights will turn on, and the system will perform an automatic check. After the check is completed, they will automatically turn off. If a light does not turn on when the ignition is switched on, remains on without turning off, or lights up while driving, it indicates a fault in the related system. In such cases, seek professional help promptly for car inspection to eliminate potential safety hazards.

When I saw the yellow exclamation mark light up on the Vezel's dashboard, I immediately became alert because it means the car is giving a warning. It may not be an urgent crisis, but it should never be ignored. The most likely issues include low tire pressure, abnormal brake system, or bulb failure. If it's a tire pressure problem, prolonged driving can easily wear out the tires and even lead to a blowout, which is especially dangerous on highways. If the brakes malfunction, the braking distance increases, raising the risk of collisions. It's recommended to stop immediately and check the manual. If it's a simple issue, handle it yourself; otherwise, drive to a 4S shop for inspection right away. Safety comes first—don't let a minor problem escalate into a major one.

How long does it usually take to get the driver's license after passing Subject Four?

After passing Subject Four, you can receive the license on-site, usually within about 2 hours. Subject Four, also known as the Subject Four theoretical test or driver's theoretical test, is part of the motor vehicle driver's license examination. The main content includes: safe and civilized driving operation requirements, safe driving knowledge under adverse weather and complex road conditions, emergency handling methods for situations such as tire blowouts, and knowledge of post-traffic accident procedures. The Subject Four test consists of 50 questions, primarily in the form of case studies, images, and animations. The total score is 100, with a passing score of 90. After the implementation of the Ministry of Public Security's Order No. 123, the Subject Three test was divided into two parts: the road test and the addition of a safety and civilized driving knowledge test, commonly referred to as 'Subject Four,' which assesses 'driving ethics.' Since this test is conducted after Subject Three, it is commonly called Subject Four. Officially, there is no such term as Subject Four. Before the test, students can study traffic regulations through driver's license simulation test software on mobile or computer devices.

Can I take the Subject 2 driving test if my ID card has expired?

If your ID card has expired, you cannot take the Subject 2 driving test. However, if your ID card is lost or expired, you can use a temporary ID card. If you need to use a temporary ID card due to the absence of your ID card, you must inform the driving test instructor in advance and follow the arrangements made by the driving school. According to Article 19, Paragraph 1 of the "Regulations on the Application and Use of Motor Vehicle Driving Licenses," "first-time applicants for a motor vehicle driving license must fill out an application form and submit proof of identity." Therefore, you can take the Subject 2 test with a temporary ID card. However, it is important to note that the validity period of a temporary ID card is three months. You can take the Subject 2 test within this period, but you will not be allowed to enter the test site if the card has expired. Therefore, make sure to take the test within the validity period of the temporary ID card. If the temporary ID card expires due to special circumstances, you should apply for a formal ID card or a new temporary ID card as soon as possible. Subject 2, also known as the small road test, is part of the motor vehicle driving license assessment and refers to the field driving skills test. For small cars (C1 and C2), the test includes five mandatory items: reverse parking, parallel parking, stopping and starting on a slope, right-angle turns, and curve driving (commonly known as the S-curve). In some regions, there is a sixth item: high-speed card collection. According to Article 25 of the "Regulations on the Application and Use of Motor Vehicle Driving Licenses" (Ministry of Public Security Order No. 123), as of June 1, 2021, the stopping and starting on a slope test is no longer required for C2 and C5 license applicants. For large vehicles (AB licenses), Subject 2 includes 16 items: reverse parking, passing through continuous obstacles, curve driving, highway simulation test, width-limited gate, bumpy road, single-plank bridge, narrow road U-turn, stopping and starting on a slope, parallel parking, highway emergency handling, mountain road simulation, right-angle turns, rain and fog weather simulation, highway tire blowout, and tunnel simulation driving.

What is the fuel consumption of the Sagitar 1.4?

1.4T Volkswagen Sagitar has 3 models on sale: Sagitar-2022-280TSI DSG Premium Edition, Advanced Edition, and Flying Edition, all equipped with a 150-horsepower engine, with an NEDC fuel consumption of 5.6L per 100km. The 1.4T Volkswagen Sagitar models with a 150-horsepower engine have a fuel tank capacity of 50L. A full tank can run for 50/5.6*100=893km. The fuel consumption of a car is directly related to five major factors: driving habits, the car itself, road conditions, natural wind, and environmental temperature. Specific factors that increase fuel consumption are as follows: Driving habits: Aggressive driving, such as sudden acceleration, frequent overtaking, and not easing off the throttle before a red light, will increase fuel consumption. The car itself: Cars with larger displacements generally consume more fuel than those with smaller displacements because larger displacements usually mean higher power, requiring more gasoline for combustion. Heavier cars also consume more fuel because greater weight requires more driving torque. Road conditions: Driving on dirt roads, muddy roads, soft surfaces, or mountainous roads increases resistance and fuel consumption. Natural wind: Driving against the wind or on windy days increases car resistance and fuel consumption. Low environmental temperature: When the engine block is cold, the injected gasoline does not atomize easily during cold starts, requiring more gasoline for combustion, thus increasing fuel consumption. Additionally, at low temperatures, the engine computer controls higher RPMs to warm up the car, which also increases fuel consumption.

What is the mesh in front of a car called?

The mesh-like component at the front of a car is called the car grille, radiator grille, or radiator cover. The metal grille (Grille), also known as the car front face, radiator grille, or radiator cover, primarily serves to allow air intake for the radiator, engine, and air conditioning system. It also protects internal components from damage caused by foreign objects during driving and enhances the car's aesthetic appeal. As the window for supplying air to the engine, the intake grille is usually located behind the car grille and directly in front of the engine compartment. Its main functions are heat dissipation and engine air intake. Generally, the car's "front gate" remains open, allowing outside air to freely enter. This means that during cold driving, the already low-temperature radiator is further cooled by the outside air, causing the water temperature to rise very slowly. As a result, the engine takes longer to reach its optimal operating state. Many car models experience slow and significantly reduced heating effects in winter due to this. The car's heating system does not rely on a compressor or electric auxiliary heating, with only a very few electric vehicles using the compressor's heat pump system for auxiliary heating. In fuel-powered cars, the warm air comes from the "residual heat" of the engine operation. This heat warms the antifreeze coolant, and when the heating is turned on, a valve connected to the water cooling system opens, allowing the high-temperature antifreeze to flow into the heater core and heat up. The blower then blows cold air over the high-temperature heater core, heating the air through the principle of heat absorption by lower-temperature objects. This is the principle of heating. If the temperature is too low and the vehicle is moving, the cold air will excessively absorb heat from the engine's radiator, preventing the internal antifreeze coolant from reaching a high temperature. This description might seem exaggerated, but it's a fact. Some trucks in northern regions used to cover the front with a leather blanket. This leather served as a "windshield," similar to the windshields used on electric bikes to cover the legs, aiming to prevent cold wind from contacting the engine radiator. Excessively low temperatures can indeed prevent the engine from reaching its optimal operating temperature, leading not only to the inability to use the heating system but also to the engine failing to achieve the ideal temperature required for optimal thermal efficiency, resulting in increased fuel consumption.
