The following details the maintenance cycle and items for small cars: 1. The maintenance cycle varies depending on the car brand, but it is generally every 5,000 kilometers or 6 months, whichever comes first. 2. Car maintenance items include core components and wear-prone parts. 3. You can go to a 4S shop for maintenance, which has the advantage of guaranteed quality and warranty, but the price is relatively high. Alternatively, you can go to a repair shop for maintenance, which is cheaper but the quality varies.

Why was the Sagitar GLI discontinued?

Because the Germans discovered that Chinese consumers do not prioritize performance, and there are no unlimited-speed highways in China where performance cars can truly unleash their potential. Introducing performance cars in mainland China is like releasing freshwater fish into seawater—no matter how many you release, they will not survive, or at best, barely cling to life. Simultaneously, the Germans also realized that what Chinese consumers need most are family cars. Below is some relevant information about the Sagitar: 1. Powertrain: The Sagitar was once marketed as a German high-performance car. It had a GLI version equipped with a 2.0T engine and a 6-speed dual-clutch transmission, capable of accelerating from 0 to 100 km/h in just 7.3 seconds. 2. Transmission: Back then, the question of whether the Sagitar GLI or the 2.0-liter Magotan was faster was a hot topic among Volkswagen enthusiasts. The Sagitar GLI featured a lower-power version of the 2.0T engine, while the Magotan had a higher-power version and an additional gear in its dual-clutch transmission.

Why has the A4L steering wheel become heavier?

Possible reasons include insufficient oil in the steering gear, inadequate lubrication of the steering ball joints, issues with the steering gear itself; insufficient tire pressure; or changes in front wheel alignment. If accompanied by increased fuel consumption and severe tire wear, it is likely caused by the latter two reasons. It is recommended to visit a 4S store for timely inspection and adjustment. Related explanations are as follows: 1. EPS: If this problem occurs during high-speed driving, it is due to a vehicle feature called Electric Power Steering (EPS) system. EPS stands for Electric-Power-Steering, which generally consists of a mechanical steering system plus components such as a torque sensor, speed sensor, electronic control unit, reducer, and motor. 2. Principle: Based on the traditional mechanical steering system, the EPS uses an electronic control device to generate corresponding magnitude and direction of auxiliary power from the motor, according to the torque signal from the steering wheel and the vehicle's speed signal, assisting the driver in steering operations. This is how the stability of the steering wheel is improved, and it is not a vehicle issue.

Are the Maintenance Costs of Hybrid Cars High?

Hybrid cars have high maintenance costs. In the later stages of use, the maintenance expenses of hybrid vehicles are generally higher than those of electric cars and conventional fuel-powered vehicles. Here are the reasons for the higher costs: 1. More maintenance items: For hybrid cars, in addition to the traditional maintenance items for fuel engines, the electric drive system also requires regular maintenance. At the same time, the carbon deposits generated during engine use need to be cleaned periodically, which also adds to the maintenance costs. Maintenance of the electric drive system is also essential. 2. Higher vehicle failure rate: From the perspective of accident rates, hybrid cars also have a higher incidence compared to conventional fuel-powered or electric vehicles. Moreover, for the electric drive system, the current technology is not particularly mature, so the relative failure rate is higher than that of fuel engines.
