Here is the 7-speed DSG transmission oil change tutorial: 1. Lift the car and unscrew the drain plug located at the bottom oil pan to drain the oil; 2. Once the oil stops flowing, remove the oil pan, drain the remaining transmission oil, clean the oil pan, and replace the transmission filter; 3. After cleaning and replacement, reinstall the oil pan, start the engine, shift the gear lever, and leave it in each gear for a few minutes to replace the oil in the clutches and brakes of each gear; 4. Once the oil is completely drained, tighten the screws and refill with new transmission oil. Here is additional information: 7-speed DSG transmission oil should be inspected and replaced every 40,000 to 60,000 kilometers (dry or wet type). Once the lubricating oil deteriorates, it will produce sludge and change color, reducing its lubricating properties, which is detrimental to internal components.

Can ETC be removed after installation?

ETC can be removed after installation. However, removing the ETC device by yourself will render it invalid because the ETC device has an anti-tamper feature. There is a small switch on the back of the ETC electronic tag. Once it is peeled off from the windshield, the internal switch will automatically shut off. Therefore, you must bring the vehicle's registration certificate to the ETC service provider for reactivation. ETC's charging principle: There will be one or more ETC lanes on highways. Through dedicated short-range microwave communication between the on-board electronic tag installed on the vehicle's windshield and the microwave antenna in the ETC lane of the toll station, the computer network technology is used to settle accounts with the bank, achieving the purpose of paying road and bridge tolls without stopping at the toll station. All of this is based on the principle of "pass first, deduct later." Benefits of installing ETC: Time-saving: Eliminates the hassle of waiting in line; Green and eco-friendly: Low-carbon, as vehicles pass through toll stations without stopping, reducing noise and exhaust emissions and minimizing pollution; Reduced wear and tear: Saves costs by reducing the frequency of vehicle starts and brakes, lowering wear and fuel consumption; Improved efficiency: The efficiency of passing through ETC lanes can theoretically increase by 2-3 times, making traditional ETC more updated, faster, and more high-tech. Compared to license plate payment, ETC technology is more mature and advantageous. More policy support: The State Council clearly stated in the "13th Five-Year Plan for the Development of a Modern Comprehensive Transportation System" that "by 2020, the interoperability of transportation cards in key city clusters will be basically achieved, and the proportion of vehicles equipped with ETC will be significantly increased." It also explicitly set the goal of "achieving a 50% ETC usage rate for road passenger vehicles by 2020" in the main indicators of the "13th Five-Year" comprehensive transportation development. More future possibilities: In addition to continuously improving the convenience of ETC installation and usage and increasing the ETC usage rate for passenger vehicles, the future will also promote the use of ETC for trucks and explore the deep integration of the ETC system with smart transportation development directions such as vehicle-to-vehicle communication and vehicle-road coordination, providing comprehensive travel services for vehicle owners. This means more application scenarios will support ETC usage. Precautions for installing ETC: Do not obstruct the view; it is best to install it behind the rearview mirror: Many car models have a large rearward angle of the windshield, which reduces the driver's field of vision. If this is not considered during ETC installation, it will increase the driver's blind spots. Installing it behind the rearview mirror on the right side can avoid obstructing the view. Do not interfere with charging: The ETC electronic tag requires power, but generally, it does not need to be charged or have its battery replaced because there is a solar panel on the back that can charge itself. Therefore, during installation, avoid the black areas on the windshield and positions that may block the solar panel. Do not remove it arbitrarily once installed: The button in the middle of the adhesive is an anti-tamper rod connected to a switch. After the electronic tag is installed, the windshield will press the anti-tamper rod in. If it is removed arbitrarily, the anti-tamper rod will pop out and trigger the switch, locking the electronic tag and rendering it unusable. You will then need to go to an ETC service point to unlock it. This is designed to prevent multiple vehicles from sharing one device. Things to note when using ETC: The ETC transaction sensing range is 8 meters. To prevent the ETC device of the vehicle in front from malfunctioning, maintain a distance of more than 10 meters from the vehicle in front to avoid automatic sensing and paying for the vehicle in front. The speed limit for ETC lane recognition is 20 kilometers per hour. Driving too fast may result in failure to read the vehicle's device information, leading to charging failure. When using a debit card to bind ETC, insufficient balance will also cause charging failure.

Can I drive a vehicle with an electronic driver's license but no paper one?

If you haven't received your paper driver's license yet but already have an electronic one on the 12123 traffic management app, you cannot drive in areas where electronic licenses are not implemented. Here are the specific details: 1. Traffic Safety Law: You must legally obtain a motor vehicle driver's license. To apply for a motor vehicle driver's license, you must meet the driving permit conditions stipulated by the public security department under the State Council; after passing the exam, the traffic management department of the public security authority will issue a motor vehicle driver's license of the corresponding category. 2. Safety: If a driver accumulates 12 points within a scoring cycle, their motor vehicle driver's license will be confiscated by the traffic management department of the public security authority. The driver must then participate in road traffic safety law and regulation training and take the exam as required. If they pass the exam, the points will be cleared, and the driver's license will be returned; if they fail, they must continue with the training and exams.

What are the common transmission faults in the Sagitar?

The common transmission faults in the Sagitar are jerking, impact, and slipping issues. Fault causes: 1. Contamination and blockage: Persistent contamination and impurities inside the transmission, especially when they accumulate in the valve body, can form blockages, preventing effective regulation of oil pressure and leading to jerking, impact, and slipping problems. 2. Overheating: High temperatures can degrade the quality and friction characteristics of automatic transmission fluid, increasing friction and wear, which results in transmission noise. Additionally, sludge (impurities or contaminants) can form inside the transmission (e.g., in the valve body), causing jerking and impact. If the temperature exceeds 120°C, rubber sealing materials begin to harden, eventually leading to leaks and reduced hydraulic pressure. At even higher temperatures, the transmission starts to slip, and slipping further raises the temperature, creating a vicious cycle.

Can a modified vehicle exempt from inspection still enjoy the exemption if caught?

Modified vehicles exempt from inspection cannot maintain their exemption status if caught. According to current regulations in China, new vehicles enjoy a six-year exemption period from inspection. During this period, motor vehicles are not required to undergo on-site testing but must obtain an exemption decal. However, any traffic violations must be resolved before the annual inspection. Below are relevant details: 1. Situations failing the annual inspection: Vehicles with unresolved traffic violation records cannot pass the annual inspection. The exemption decal can only be obtained after addressing these violations prior to the inspection. 2. Required documents for application: As per regulations, vehicle owners may apply for the inspection compliance decal at the local vehicle management office up to three months before the expiration of the current inspection validity. During the application process, owners must complete an application form and submit the vehicle registration certificate, compulsory traffic accident liability insurance certificate, vehicle and vessel tax payment or exemption proof, and motor vehicle safety technical inspection compliance certificate.
