What is the appropriate tire pressure for general use?

Generally, the normal tire pressure should be between 2.2 and 2.5 kilopascals. In spring, when the temperature is around 20 degrees Celsius, the tire pressure is usually maintained at 2.3-2.5 kilopascals. However, as the temperature and road surface temperature gradually rise, especially during high-speed or long-distance driving, the tire pressure can easily increase, which may lead to tire blowouts. In summer, road surface temperatures can reach 60-70 degrees Celsius. If the tire pressure is too high while driving, even a slight impact on a weak spot of the tire can easily cause a blowout. Tire pressure, strictly speaking, refers to the air pressure inside the tire. In terms of car maintenance, the engine is the heart of the car, and its damage can lead to the end of the car's life. Similarly, tire pressure is like the blood pressure of the car, and its level plays a crucial role in the car's performance and power. Air pressure is the lifeblood of a tire. Both excessively high and low pressure can shorten the tire's lifespan. Low pressure increases the deformation of the tire body, making it prone to cracks on the sidewalls. It also causes excessive flexing, leading to overheating, rubber aging, fatigue of the cord layers, and even cord breakage. Additionally, low pressure increases the tire's contact area with the ground, accelerating wear on the tire shoulders. High pressure, on the other hand, overstretches the tire cords, reducing the tire's elasticity and increasing the load on the car while driving. In case of impact, it can cause internal cracks or even blowouts. High pressure also accelerates wear on the tread and reduces the tire's resistance to punctures.

What is the function of the Jetta small coolant reservoir?

Jetta small coolant reservoir serves to replenish the antifreeze. Most vehicles utilize water-cooled engines, which rely on the continuous circulation of coolant for heat dissipation. Within the engine, the coolant follows two circulation paths: a major cycle and a minor cycle. When the engine is first started and its temperature remains low, the coolant engages in the minor cycle. Once the engine reaches its normal operating temperature, the coolant switches to the major cycle. Jetta is an automobile brand under FAW-Volkswagen Automotive Co., Ltd., officially launched in February 2019 at Volkswagen's headquarters in Wolfsburg, Germany.

Where is the central locking control box located in the old Jetta?

Old Jetta's central locking control box is located under the left side of the dashboard, which is a control unit integrated with the power window system. Below is some information about the central locking control box: 1. Function: It can simultaneously control the opening and closing of all vehicle doors. Once activated, people inside the vehicle cannot open the doors. 2. Features: Central control - when the driver locks their door, all other doors lock simultaneously. The driver can unlock all doors via the door lock switch or open individual doors separately. Speed control - when the vehicle reaches a certain speed, all doors automatically lock to prevent passengers from accidentally opening doors by operating the door handles.

Why does a Tesla experience weak acceleration after 100 kilometers?

Tesla experiencing weak acceleration after 100 kilometers can be attributed to the following specific reasons: 1. Engine misfire: This leads to increased fuel consumption, black smoke emission, weak acceleration, and severe shaking. 2. Main causes of clutch slippage: Insufficient friction on the clutch friction plate, premature gear shifting or disengagement before the clutch is fully engaged. Prolonged driving in a semi-clutch state, coasting with the clutch depressed, incomplete gear engagement or disengagement, and sudden throttle application when the gear is not fully engaged or disengaged can cause abnormal wear on the clutch plate. 3. Low fuel rail pressure: This typically results in similar symptoms of weak acceleration and inability to increase engine speed.

How to Bleed Air from Car Brakes?

The sequence for bleeding air should follow the order of right rear wheel, left rear wheel, right front wheel, left front wheel, and then the clutch master cylinder. Locate the bleeder screw on the brake caliper, remove the dust cap from the bleeder valve, and connect the bleeder port to a drain bottle using a rubber tube. First, press the brake pedal continuously 5 to 6 times, then hold it down. Immediately loosen the bleeder screw on the right rear wheel brake caliper and quickly tighten it again. Repeat this process until brake fluid shoots out in a straight line from the bleeder screw.
