Volkswagen New Polo's spark plug model is Bosch F7HER2. Here is some information about spark plugs: 1. When a vehicle reaches a certain mileage, spark plugs may develop issues such as carbon deposits and increased electrode gap. Carbon deposits can lead to increased fuel consumption, while an enlarged spark plug gap may result in insufficient ignition energy, causing starting difficulties. 2. Spark plugs are crucial components of a car's ignition system, and the ignition system is vital for engine operation. Therefore, the performance of spark plugs directly affects the overall working performance and efficiency of the vehicle. Regular inspection and maintenance of spark plugs can help extend the engine's lifespan.

My previous Polo had been used for a long time, and the engine kept shaking. It turned out the spark plugs were failing. I checked the owner's manual and found the original model was NGK BKR5E-11. This part must match, otherwise improper ignition will affect acceleration and fuel consumption. Normally, you should check or replace them every 30,000 km, depending on road conditions and driving habits. I bought tools and replaced them myself—the process isn’t too difficult, but you need to be careful. Note that different year models of Polo may use different spark plugs. For example, the 1.6L engine often uses Bosch FR7HC+, so always check your manual to confirm. Regular spark plug maintenance can reduce carbon buildup, improve fuel efficiency, and extend engine life, saving you the cost and hassle of major repairs. If you’re unsure, it’s best to visit a 4S shop and consult an expert.

Should a leaking car shock absorber be repaired?

As long as the shock absorber leakage is caused by normal aging and damage of the internal oil seal, it can be repaired (by replacing the shock absorber oil seal). Of course, if the shock absorber leakage is induced by factors such as strong impact, then it cannot be repaired and can only be replaced. This is also the mainstream repair method currently adopted by 4S stores and repair shops. The following is more relevant information: Shock absorber leakage requires replacement: 1. The question of whether the shock absorber needs to be replaced should be judged according to the actual situation. If the shock absorber only has slight oil seepage, it may not even need attention. Only when the shock absorber leakage is more severe should it be replaced in time. 2. Whether it is slight oil seepage or severe leakage, as long as the oil inside the shock absorber oil chamber is reduced, it will have a certain impact on the damping force for vibration filtration. The performance in the cab will be that the vehicle suspension becomes softer, the vibration filtration effect worsens, and phenomena such as loose chassis and abnormal noise from the shock absorber appear. In severe cases, on larger bumpy roads, the shock absorber may even be damaged due to bottoming out.

Does a newly purchased used car need an annual inspection?

Vehicle annual inspection has nothing to do with whether it is a used car or not, just follow the normal annual inspection procedure for the vehicle itself. Below is more information about annual inspection: 1. Inspection types: According to the definition in RB/T218-2017 "Requirements for Qualification Assessment of Inspection Bodies - Motor Vehicle Inspection Institutions", motor vehicle inspections include: motor vehicle safety technical inspection, motor vehicle emission inspection, and comprehensive performance inspection of motor vehicles. 2. Time: For passenger cars and blue-license minivans, within the first six years after new vehicle registration, inspection is required every two years; after six years, annual inspection is required; after ten years, inspection is required once a year, and after fifteen years, inspection is required twice a year. For trucks, annual inspection is required after registration, and after ten years, inspection is required twice a year. 3. Penalties for not having an annual inspection: If a vehicle is found by traffic police on the road without an annual inspection, the owner will be fined or the vehicle will be impounded. At the same time, in insurance contracts, vehicles that have not been inspected in time are considered unqualified vehicles, and once a car insurance accident occurs, no claims will be paid.

What to Do When the Headlight is Displaced and Has a Gap After a Collision?

If the headlight is displaced and has a gap after a collision, it should be promptly taken to a repair shop or a 4S store for replacement. Car Headlight Maintenance: 1. Regularly check if the headlights are functioning properly: Regular headlight inspection is not as simple as just taking a quick look. When inspecting the headlights, you need to check if all different types of headlights are working correctly. Additionally, check if the direction of the headlight beam is misaligned and if the brightness is sufficient. Regular inspection of the headlight's working condition helps in understanding its status early and prevents unexpected issues. 2. Replace car bulbs periodically: Car headlight bulbs are consumables and have a fixed lifespan. Bulbs that have been used for a long time may dim, reducing the illumination distance, which can affect nighttime driving and pose a significant safety hazard. 3. Clean the headlight covers frequently: While driving on the road, it's inevitable that water splashes and mud spots will get on the headlight covers. Generally, headlight covers are made of special materials with good sealing performance. However, excessive dirt on the headlight covers can affect the car's appearance and the lighting effectiveness of the headlights.

Can Automotive Urea Be Exported?

Automotive urea can be exported. Optimizing Engine Performance: The use of automotive urea can optimize engine performance and fuel consumption, reducing diesel consumption by up to 6%, significantly lowering costs. Purification Effect: It serves a purification function by reacting with nitrogen oxides in the exhaust, reducing nitrogen oxide emissions. Energy-saving and Environmental Benefits: Automotive urea can be used in diesel vehicle selective catalytic reduction (SCR) systems to catalytically reduce nitrogen oxides in the exhaust into harmless nitrogen and water. In simpler terms, it reduces nitrogen oxides in diesel engine exhaust, thereby achieving energy-saving and environmental benefits.

What is the Engine Oil Grade Chart?

Currently, gasoline engine oils are classified into grades SA, SB, SC, SD, SE, SF, SG, SH, SJ, SL, SM, SN, and SP; diesel engine oils are classified into grades CA, CB, CC, CD, CD-II, CE, CF-II, CF-4, CG-4, CH-4, and CI-4. Below is more related information: Classification based on SAE viscosity grades: 1. Engine oils are classified according to SAE viscosity grades, with 6 types for winter, 5 types for summer, and 16 types for all-season use. 2. There are 6 types of winter engine oils: 0W, 5W, 10W, 15W, 20W, and 25W. The 'W' stands for Winter, and the smaller the number before it, the greater the oil's fluidity and the lower the applicable temperature. 3. There are 5 types of summer engine oils: 20, 30, 40, 50, and 60. The larger the number, the higher the oil's viscosity and the stronger its high-temperature protection performance, making it suitable for higher temperature environments. 4. There are 16 types of all-season engine oils: 5W20, 5W30, 5W40, 5W50, 10W20, 10W30, 10W40, 10W50, 15W30, 15W40, 15W50, 20W20, 20W30, 20W40, and 20W50.

What does srsairbag mean?

srs-airbag is the automotive airbag system. The function of automotive airbags: After a car collision, before secondary impact occurs between occupants and interior components, a gas-filled cushion rapidly deploys between them. This allows occupants to cushion against the impact by landing on the airbag due to inertia, thereby absorbing collision energy and reducing injury severity. Components of airbags: Airbags typically consist of sensors, electronic control units, inflators, airbag cushions, and retention devices. Usually, the inflator and airbag cushion are assembled together to form an airbag module.
