The fuel tank capacity of the Passat B5 is 68.5 liters, as officially announced. The Passat B5 requires 95-octane fuel, with a fuel consumption of 5.8-6.7L per 100 kilometers. A full tank can cover a distance of 1022-1181km. During daily driving, it is essential to monitor the remaining fuel level in the tank. This is typically done by observing the fuel gauge inside the vehicle. Under normal circumstances, the fuel level is accurately reflected on the gauge. The fuel gauge usually has 5 to 6 segments, and it is advisable to refuel when only 2 segments remain to avoid running out of fuel midway. During actual refueling, the amount of fuel may exceed the calibrated capacity. This is because the fuel tank capacity specified by the manufacturer is measured from the bottom of the tank to the safety limit. There is additional space from the safety limit to the tank opening, which is designed to allow for fuel expansion due to temperature increases without causing overflow. If fuel is filled up to the tank opening during refueling, the actual amount of fuel added may exceed the calibrated tank capacity.

Can Red and Blue Lights Be Used for Civilian Purposes?

Red and blue lights cannot be used for civilian purposes. Below is an introduction to warning lights: Introduction: Warning lights are generally used for maintaining road safety and are typically installed on vehicles such as police cars, engineering vehicles, fire trucks, ambulances, security management vehicles, road maintenance vehicles, tow trucks, emergency service vehicles, and machinery equipment. They are also used in electrical control circuits for machinery, power, machine tools, chemicals, telecommunications, ships, metallurgy, etc., serving functions such as control signals and interlocking. Installation Method: Warning lights have positive and negative terminals. The positive terminal should be connected to the 58 port, and the negative terminal should be connected to the screw; otherwise, the light will not flash. Basic Classification: Warning lights can be categorized based on their installation and external features into combined long-row warning lights, combined tower-shaped warning lights, small various warning lights, etc.

Is There a Fee for Practicing Subject Three?

Practicing Subject Three requires payment. Below is an introduction to Subject Three: Introduction: Subject Three, which includes the road driving skills test and the safety and civilized driving common sense test, is part of the motor vehicle driver's license assessment. Notes: If the examinee's fingerprint verification fails, please exit the vehicle to re-collect the fingerprint before queuing again for the test. During the test, if the examinee's score falls below the passing score, the system will automatically prompt the examinee to pull over. Once the pull-over action is completed, the system will prompt for the next test. When walking around the vehicle to observe the vehicle's appearance and surrounding environment, to ensure the accuracy of radar signal detection, please maintain a distance of within 1 meter between yourself and the vehicle.

What's the Difference Between Classic Full Synthetic and Advanced Full Synthetic?

Classic full synthetic and advanced full synthetic differ in terms of grade and application. Here is an introduction to the differences between classic full synthetic and advanced full synthetic: Different grades: Full synthetic oil can be used in a wider range of temperatures and has a longer service life. For the same oil film requirements, full synthetic oil can achieve the desired performance with a lower viscosity, while semi-synthetic oil requires a relatively higher viscosity to meet the same requirements. Different applications: Full synthetic oil can operate in a wider temperature range and can protect the engine with lower viscosity under the same working conditions, whereas semi-synthetic oil has relatively higher usage requirements.

How many points are deducted for rolling back during hill start in Subject 2?

During the hill parking test, if the vehicle rolls back less than 30 cm during start, 10 points are deducted; if it rolls back more than 30 cm, 100 points are deducted. Other point deduction items are as follows: After parking, if the right side of the vehicle body is more than 30 cm away from the roadside line, 10 points are deducted; if more than 50 cm, 100 points are deducted; crossing or touching the line results in 100 points deduction; After parking, if the front bumper is not aligned with the pole line and the deviation is within 50 cm, 10 points are deducted; if exceeding 50 cm, 100 points are deducted; After parking, if the parking brake is not fully engaged, 10 points are deducted; Failure to complete the start within 30 seconds results in 100 points deduction; Stalling once during start deducts 10 points; Starting the engine without the gear in neutral or park results in 100 points deduction; Key points for hill parking operation: Upon hearing the "hill parking" instruction (about 20 meters from the pole), turn on the right turn signal, steer appropriately to the right, and slowly drive the vehicle straight along the right side of the road, paying attention to the distance between the vehicle body and the right sideline. When the vehicle is about 10 meters from the parking pole, approach the target slowly, accurately, and steadily. Accurately estimate the target using the parking pole and a specific point on the windshield (or hood) (this point should be determined during practice due to differences in vehicle models and driver height). When a specific point on the windshield aligns with the parking pole, indicating the vehicle bumper is aligned with the pole line, stop immediately.

What is the maximum speed allowed with a visibility of 30 meters?

With a visibility of 30 meters, the speed should not exceed 20 kilometers per hour. Below is an introduction about visibility: Introduction: Visibility refers to the maximum distance at which a person with normal vision can distinguish an object from its background. Environmental Impact: In exceptionally clear air conditions, such as in the Arctic or mountainous areas, visibility can reach 70 to 100 kilometers. However, visibility is usually reduced due to atmospheric pollution and humidity. During atmospheric pollution events, aerosol pollutants like dust, smoke droplets, fog, falling dust, floating dust, and suspended particles can affect the atmospheric extinction coefficient and visibility to some extent.

Why does an automatic transmission car lack power when reversing and can't climb a steep slope?

Automatic transmission cars lacking power when reversing and unable to climb steep slopes indicate a transmission malfunction. Here is an introduction to the transmission: Introduction: The transmission is a mechanism used to change the speed and torque from the engine. It can fix or change the transmission ratio between the output shaft and the input shaft in different gears. Principle: Mechanical transmissions mainly apply the principle of gear transmission speed reduction. Simply put, the transmission contains multiple sets of gear pairs with different transmission ratios. The gear-shifting behavior when the car is moving is achieved by operating the mechanism to engage different gear pairs in the transmission. For example, at low speeds, gear pairs with larger transmission ratios are engaged, while at high speeds, gear pairs with smaller transmission ratios are engaged.
