If the 2016 Passat loses gears 1, 3, 5, and 7 while driving, it could be due to the odd-gear synchronizer getting stuck, or damage to the piston push rod of the mechatronic unit or the control unit sensor itself. It is recommended to have the vehicle inspected at a reputable auto repair shop or the brand's 4S dealership. Relevant information about the Passat is as follows: Introduction 1: The Passat has body dimensions of 4933mm in length, 1836mm in width, and 1469mm in height, with a wheelbase of 2871mm. The Passat (PASSAT) is a mid-size sedan designed by Volkswagen AG in Germany. Introduction 2: Classified as a B-segment car in Volkswagen's lineup, the Passat has been in production since 1973. Over more than 40 years, the Volkswagen Passat has swept the global automotive market with its high safety standards, classic design, and top-tier manufacturing quality, selling over 30 million units. Introduction 3: With the Passat, Volkswagen applies the most advanced engineering technology, surpassing the standard design of mid-range cars in terms of power performance, overall design, safety concepts, driving and riding comfort, as well as durability and longevity.

Which series does the Mercedes-Benz 400 belong to?

Mercedes-Benz models equipped with a 3.0T 333-horsepower V6 engine are all named 400, with the Mercedes S400 as an example. Appearance features of the Mercedes S400: In the minor facelift, Mercedes-Benz did not make many changes to the S-Class. The front end follows the brand's recent family style, featuring a larger and more sharply contoured grille. At the rear, the body-colored trim on the taillight clusters was removed and replaced with full LED light clusters, incorporating the reverse light design. This retains the original two-bar style while improving rear lighting effects. The redesigned front and rear bumpers have sharper lines, giving the S-Class a more youthful and sporty appearance. The high-brightness LED daytime running lights are exclusive to the S400 Hybrid and S600 models, highlighting the technological prowess of the hybrid system and the V12 engine. Engine of the Mercedes S400: To improve overall fuel efficiency, the S400 Hybrid's engine, like the THS, operates on the Atkinson cycle. Mercedes-Benz engineers adjusted the intake valve timing of this V6 engine, delaying its closure compared to the original S350, to achieve a compression stroke shorter than the power stroke. This leverages the Atkinson cycle principle for higher thermal efficiency. To counteract the significant power loss typical of Atkinson cycle engines, Mercedes-Benz engineers recalibrated the V6 engine in the S400 Hybrid, increasing the compression ratio from 10.7:1 to 11.7:1 and adjusting fuel injection and ignition timing. As a result, this Atkinson engine maintains the same peak torque of 35.7 kg·m as the original engine, with maximum horsepower even higher at 279 hp. The S400 Hybrid accelerates from 0 to 100 km/h in just 7.2 seconds and can reach the electronically limited top speed of 250 km/h. More impressively, thanks to the hybrid system's excellent performance, along with Start/Stop and brake energy recovery systems, it achieves over 12 km per liter of gasoline, reducing fuel consumption by 21% and CO2 emissions by 18%, making the S400 Hybrid the most fuel-efficient model in its class.

What is the wading depth of the BYD Han?

The maximum wading depth of the BYD Han is 250mm. The wading depth of the BYD Han is determined by the height of the vehicle's chassis, which is the ground clearance listed in the model's parameter configuration table. Generally speaking, the greater the ground clearance, the higher the chassis, and the higher the safety factor when driving through waterlogged roads. Therefore, in terms of safe wading depth, the advantages of off-road vehicles and SUVs are obvious. However, for most compact and small cars with low chassis, the position of the vehicle's air intake should be used as a reference when passing through waterlogged roads. If the air intake of the BYD Han is below the water level during wading, water will be sucked into the engine's cylinders. Since water cannot be compressed like air, it will cause serious damage to the engine's mechanical components (such as connecting rods, pistons, crankshafts, etc.). Therefore, the wading depth must not exceed the height of the engine's air intake. The height of the engine's air intake, and thus the maximum wading depth, can also be increased by installing a snorkel. If wading is unavoidable, the following safe and correct operations should be performed: Before wading, be sure to turn off the auto start-stop function to prevent the vehicle from automatically restarting after stalling in the water, which could cause serious damage to the engine due to water ingress. Judge the underwater road conditions based on the passage of the vehicle ahead and choose a suitable entry point. Observe the path taken by other vehicles and follow their tracks at low speed, avoiding sudden acceleration or deceleration. On roads prone to water accumulation, observe warning water level markers, trees, and reference points such as the wheels and doors of other vehicles to judge the water depth before deciding whether to proceed. Know your vehicle's safe wading depth. If the water depth exceeds half the height of the tires or the engine's air intake, do not proceed recklessly; choose an alternative route instead.

Are Hyundai engines domestically produced or imported?

Hyundai engines are domestically produced by Beijing Hyundai Mobis Auto Parts Co., Ltd. The engine models used by Hyundai include G4FL, G4LD, etc. The G4FL engine has a maximum horsepower of 115 hp, a maximum power of 84.5 kW, a maximum power speed of 6300 rpm, and a peak torque of 143.9 N·m. The G4LD engine has a maximum horsepower of 140 hp, a maximum power of 103 kW, a maximum power speed of 6000 rpm, and a peak torque of 211 N·m. For daily maintenance of Hyundai engines, the following methods can be used: Use lubricating oil of 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 the 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, performance deteriorates, causing various problems for the engine. To avoid faults, change the oil regularly according to usage conditions and keep the oil level moderate; When oil passes through the fine holes of the filter, solid particles and viscous substances in the oil accumulate in the filter. If the filter is blocked 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, bringing contaminants back to the lubrication area, accelerating engine wear and internal pollution; Regularly clean the crankcase. During engine operation, high-pressure unburned gas, acid, 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 part wear to form sludge. A small amount remains suspended in the oil, while a large amount precipitates, blocking filters and oil holes, 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.
