The engine of the 2018 Touran is a Volkswagen engine produced at the Lou Tang Engine Factory in Jiading District, Shanghai. The engine model of the 2018 Touran is EA211, with a maximum horsepower of 110, a maximum power of 81kw, and a maximum torque of 155nm. For daily maintenance of the 2018 Touran engine, the following methods can be used: Use lubricating oil of the appropriate quality grade. For gasoline engines, SD--SF grade gasoline engine oil should be selected based on the additional devices of the intake and exhaust systems and usage conditions; for diesel engines, CB--CD grade diesel engine oil should be selected according to mechanical load, with the selection standard not lower than the manufacturer's requirements; Regularly change the oil and filter. The quality of any grade of lubricating oil will change during use. After a certain mileage, the performance deteriorates, which can cause various problems for the engine. To avoid malfunctions, the oil should be changed regularly according to usage conditions, and the oil level should be kept moderate; When oil passes through the fine pores of the filter, solid particles and viscous substances in the oil accumulate in the filter. If the filter is clogged and oil cannot pass through the filter element, the filter element may burst or the safety valve may open, allowing oil to bypass through the bypass valve and carry contaminants back to the lubrication area, accelerating engine wear and increasing internal contamination; Regularly clean the crankcase. During engine operation, high-pressure unburned gases, acids, moisture, sulfur, and nitrogen oxides from the combustion chamber enter the crankcase through the gap between the piston rings and cylinder walls, mixing with metal powder from component wear to form sludge. When the amount is small, it remains suspended in the oil; when the amount is large, it precipitates from the oil, clogging filters and oil passages, making engine lubrication difficult and causing wear; Regularly use radiator cleaner to clean the radiator. Removing rust and scale not only ensures the normal operation of the engine but also extends the overall lifespan of the radiator and engine.

I've been driving an 18-year-old Touran for several years. It's equipped with the EA211 1.4 TSI engine, the turbocharged version, delivering around 150 horsepower and approximately 250 Nm of torque. It's quite comfortable to drive in the city, with quick and responsive starts, and the combined fuel consumption is about 7 liters per 100 km, dropping to around 6 liters on the highway. The engine responds swiftly, has good power for climbing hills, and is suitable for long family trips. It's reliable and not expensive to maintain, just requiring regular oil and filter changes, with checks every 5,000 km. For the turbo part, be careful not to overload it to avoid high-temperature damage. Overall, it's a classic Volkswagen configuration, perfectly matched to the Touran's size, sturdy and durable, with no major issues.

I bought a used 2018 Touran last year, specifically checked that the engine model is the EA211 1.4-liter turbocharged one with 150 horsepower. Driving daily in the city, the fuel consumption is well controlled, averaging just over 7 liters. It accelerates quickly and smoothly without any jerking. My family says the engine noise is minimal, making it quite quiet. I chose this model because it's fuel-efficient and practical, and this engine is widely used in the Volkswagen series. Maintenance is straightforward, with just spark plugs and belts needing periodic replacement. It offers great value for money, and I recommend friends considering an MPV to try this configuration.

Piston Ring Replacement Method?

Here are the steps for replacing piston rings: 1. For the twist ring, the inner circular groove should face upward, while the outer circular groove ring's groove should face downward. 2. The small end of the taper-faced ring should face upward. 3. For rings with inner circular chamfers, the chamfer should face upward. 4. For rings with outer circular chamfers, the chamfer should face downward. 5. Some piston rings are marked with "TOP" or "0", "△" symbols on one side. During installation, the marked side must face upward. 6. Barrel-faced rings or chrome-plated rings should be installed in the first groove. 7. When installing a composite steel oil ring, first insert the expander into the groove, then install the upper and lower scraper rails, ensuring their openings are staggered by 180°.

How to Tell if a Car is a Stock Vehicle When Buying?

Methods to identify a stock vehicle when purchasing a car are: 1. After a new car leaves the factory, various fluids, electronic components, batteries, rubber seals, and tires may deteriorate due to prolonged storage without periodic inspection and maintenance, leading to issues like moisture damage and aging. 2. For stock vehicles stored for too long, without proper warehouse management, the aging of electronic components and rubber products cannot be detected without professional testing equipment. Many overstocked vehicles may experience oil or power shortages. Additional information: 1. The term "stock vehicle" is specific to the automotive sales industry, referring to new cars that have remained unsold for an extended period after leaving the factory. 2. Generally, cars that have been in storage for over three months or six months are considered stock vehicles. For imported cars, due to the time-consuming processes of transportation, customs declaration, and clearance, the threshold is more lenient, typically classifying them as stock vehicles if stored for over six months or a year.

Why Does the Car AC Blow Smelly Cold Air?

Foul odors from the car AC when blowing cold air may be caused by: 1. Dirty air conditioning ventilation ducts or a clogged cabin air filter. The cabin air filter should be replaced regularly, as an excessively dirty filter not only fails to function properly but also causes secondary pollution to the air entering the vehicle. To completely eliminate odors inside the car, it's essential to address the root cause. Under normal conditions, an OEM cabin air filter has a service life of one year or 30,000 kilometers. If the vehicle frequently operates in areas with poor air quality, the replacement interval should be shortened accordingly. 2. Long-term use of the AC evaporator can lead to mold growth due to moisture, resulting in unpleasant smells. Drivers should turn off the AC cooling 5 minutes before reaching their destination and switch to natural ventilation. This allows the temperature inside the AC ducts to return to normal before parking, preventing condensation due to temperature differences after turning off the engine. Keeping the AC ducts dry inhibits the growth of mold and fungi.
