It should be VAG5054, a specialized computer diagnostic tool for detecting faults in Volkswagen (Audi) vehicles. The 5054 is an upgraded version of the 5053 and 5053A, and it is one of the more technologically advanced diagnostic tools in Volkswagen's lineup (there is also a 5054A above it). It can detect (including matching) all issues currently found in Volkswagen vehicles. The diagnostic tool can also be referred to as a diagnostic computer, which can connect to the vehicle's computer to read fault codes. Vehicles are equipped with numerous electronic devices, and when a fault occurs in one of these devices, the vehicle's computer generates a fault code. During repairs, technicians can connect the diagnostic computer to read these fault codes. Fault codes help technicians determine the cause and location of the issue, thereby improving repair efficiency.

How to use the jack that comes with Volkswagen cars?

When using the jack, place an anti-slip pad (such as a rubber mat) under the base of the jack. Below are the steps to use the Volkswagen car jack: 1. Position the car jack under the vehicle. 2. Turn the crank handle to raise the lifting arm of the jack until it properly fits under the car. 3. Adjust the car jack while continuing to raise the lifting arm until it is close to the vehicle. 4. Lift the car until the wheel just leaves the ground. 5. Remove the loosened wheel bolts and place them on a clean pad (such as a wheel cover, cloth, or paper) next to the car jack, then take off the wheel. 6. Install the spare wheel and slightly tighten all wheel bolts.

Why Does Engine Oil Smell Like Gasoline?

Reasons for gasoline smell in engine oil: 1. Long-term failure to change the lubricating oil leads to reduced oil film thickness and inadequate piston lubrication; 2. Scratches on the cylinder wall cause blow-by gases; 3. Prolonged continuous use of the engine increases the clearance between the piston and cylinder wall; 4. Frequent short-distance driving and cold starts without warming up the engine prevent gasoline from being adequately vaporized and escaping. Consequences of blow-by gases: 1. Gasoline vapor condensing in the crankcase dilutes the engine oil and degrades its performance; 2. Water vapor in the exhaust gases condenses in the oil, forming foam and disrupting oil supply; 3. Sulfur dioxide in the exhaust reacts with water to form sulfurous acid, which further oxidizes to sulfuric acid, corroding and damaging engine components; 4. Increased pressure in the crankcase compromises engine seals, leading to oil leaks.

Where to Find the VIN Code of a Car?

The car's VIN code is located on the sticker or nameplate inside the driver's side door, or on the door frame base. This number can also be seen from outside the car through the windshield. Methods to identify a car's VIN code: 1. The 10th digit represents the model year; 2. The 1st digit being 'L' indicates China; 3. The 2nd and 3rd digits represent the manufacturer; 4. The 4th to 9th digits indicate the vehicle type and configuration; 5. The 10th digit is the model year, represented by a letter or number; 6. The 11th digit is the assembly plant, represented by a letter or number; 7. The last 6 digits are the production sequence number. Sometimes the VIN is printed inside the glove box and often appears on the car's title certificate and insurance documents.

What Causes the Jerking Sensation After Braking to a Stop?

The reason for the jerking sensation after braking to a stop may be due to a damaged solenoid valve or sludge blockage in the transmission fluid. Below are relevant points to note when braking: 1. Point One: When braking, it is important to press the brake pedal gently and maintain braking force, then adjust the pressure based on the speed of the vehicle ahead. Provided there is sufficient braking distance, press the brake pedal slowly and continuously for a smooth deceleration. As the vehicle comes to a stop, gradually release the brake pedal until it is fully released when the vehicle is stationary. 2. Point Two: In emergency situations, it is necessary to press the brake pedal all the way down until the danger is averted. It is crucial to remain calm and avoid excessive nervousness that could lead to panic. At the same time, actions must be swift—press the brake pedal with full force.

Is One-Button Start Activated by Long Press?

One-button start is not activated by long press; it is triggered by a single press. Press the start button once to turn on the ACC light, then press the start button again, at which point the one-button start indicator turns green, and the vehicle begins self-inspection. After the self-inspection is complete, press the brake and press the one-button start button once more to start the vehicle. The one-button start system is part of a smart car's features, simplifying the ignition process with a single button that can also turn off the engine. This button mechanism serves as a backup in case the one-button start function fails, allowing for manual ignition. Vehicles equipped with one-button start typically do not require inserting a key, though they still have a key slot. In emergency situations while driving, the engine can be shut off by pressing the engine start/stop button for more than 3 seconds or pressing it three times consecutively, switching the power to ACC mode.
