Differences in appearance and interior between showroom cars and new cars. Showroom Car Introduction: Showroom cars are provided by 4S dealerships primarily for display in exhibition halls. They are usually parked in the showroom for extended periods, with only stationary operations like starting the engine or activating lights. Frequent battery charging is required, which can cause damage to the car battery. Prolonged use as a showroom car may affect the battery's lifespan. New Car Introduction: New cars are entirely brand-new, both inside and out. From the exterior to the interior and components, they are superior to showroom cars. However, showroom cars are typically priced lower than new cars. When purchasing a vehicle, thorough inspection is essential. For popular models, this may be less critical, but for vehicles with longer storage periods, careful examination is necessary.

What is the appropriate position to adjust the rearview mirrors for reverse parking?

When adjusting the rearview mirrors for reverse parking, it is generally most suitable to position them so that you can see the rear of the vehicle and even the rear corners of the garage. The left mirror should be adjusted similarly. Below is a partial introduction on adjusting rearview mirrors for reverse parking: 1. Key points: The body of the car can occupy slightly more space in the mirror, with the rear door handle positioned near the upper edge of the mirror. The adjustment should allow you to see the left rear wheel without leaning out of the window, which facilitates observation during left-side reverse parking and parallel parking. 2. Additional information: Depending on the direction the rear of the car needs to move, use your left hand to turn the steering wheel: if the rear needs to move toward the right rear, turn the steering wheel to the right; conversely, turn it to the left. In practice, this steering operation is the same as when driving forward.

Will the Insurance Company Compensate for Water Damage to a Car?

Insurance companies do compensate for water damage to cars. Here are the specific details regarding two types of insurance related to vehicle water damage: 1. Vehicle Damage Insurance: Heavy rain that meets the conditions of a natural disaster can result in all vehicle losses being covered by vehicle damage insurance. If a vehicle is submerged in water, as long as the engine is not flooded, repairs such as replacing parts or fixing circuits are covered under vehicle damage insurance. Even if the entire car is submerged due to heavy rain, resulting in total loss, the insurance company can compensate for the total loss. 2. Engine Special Loss Insurance: Also commonly known as water damage insurance. 3. Non-compensation Conditions: If the vehicle is flooded and the owner still forcibly starts the engine, resulting in damage, it will not be compensated.

Does the Tiguan L Have a Particulate Filter?

Tiguan L 2020 and 2021 models with 280TSI and 330TSI engines are equipped with particulate filters. A particulate filter is a ceramic filter installed in the diesel engine exhaust system, designed to capture particulate emissions before they enter the atmosphere. It can reduce soot emissions from diesel engines by more than 90%, and the captured particulate matter is subsequently burned off during vehicle operation. Working principle of the particulate filter: The diesel particulate filter is coated with metals such as platinum, rhodium, and palladium. The black smoke containing carbon particles emitted by the diesel engine enters the exhaust particulate trap through a dedicated pipe. The densely arranged bag-type filters inside capture the carbon particles on the metal fiber felt filter. When the accumulation of particles reaches a certain level, the burner at the end automatically ignites, burning off the captured carbon particles and converting them into harmless carbon dioxide. To check if the Tiguan L has a particulate filter, you can use the following three methods: 1. Refer to the and to see if the particulate filter function is mentioned. Additionally, carefully check the fault codes in the manual to see if there is a "Particulate Filter" warning light indicator. 2. Check the label on the oil filler cap. If the cap clearly states the use of 0W-20 grade oil, it indicates the presence of a particulate filter. 3. Look at the exhaust pipe behind the catalytic converter to see if there is an additional cylindrical section. If present, that is the particulate filter.

What Are the Effects of Running the Car Air Conditioning for a Long Time?

Here is a detailed introduction to the effects of running the car air conditioning for a long time: 1. Reduced car power: The car's air conditioning system is powered by the car engine. Running the air conditioning for a long time will consume part of the car's power, causing symptoms such as sluggish acceleration or abnormal shaking during driving. 2. Carbon monoxide poisoning: Using the air conditioning's internal circulation mode for a long time while driving will reduce the oxygen content in the car's air. 3. Increased risk of catching a cold: Running the air conditioning for a long time creates a significant temperature difference between the inside and outside of the car, making it easier for people to catch a cold. 4. Increased fuel consumption: Running the air conditioning for a long time can cause the car's electrical system to operate under overload, increasing fuel consumption.
