Reasons and solutions for the Volkswagen displaying EPC and not starting: Replace fuel: Intake system failure, requires fuel replacement and cleaning of the throttle body. Clean carbon deposits: Remove carbon deposits from related parts and reprogram ECU data. Send for repair: Insufficient battery power can also trigger the EPC warning light. It is generally recommended to go to a 4S shop for inspection and maintenance. Check fuel level: When the fuel level is low, the EPC light will turn on, and the car cannot be started at this time. Check gear position: When the gear position is incorrect, the car cannot start, and the EPC light will also be on. Returning the gear to the correct position will solve the problem.

Does Coasting in Neutral Save Fuel?

Coasting in neutral does not save fuel. Coasting in neutral refers to the operation method where the driver shifts the gear lever to the neutral position while the vehicle is moving, disengaging the clutch between the engine and the drive wheels, and relying on the vehicle's inertia to move. Coasting in neutral can easily cause the vehicle to stall, which is not beneficial for the car's engine. Methods to ensure safe driving: 1. Check the vehicle's condition and avoid driving with potential hazards; 2. Fasten the seatbelt and enhance safety awareness; 3. Avoid driving while fatigued; 4. Do not drink and drive; 5. Pay attention to road conditions in bad weather; 6. Handle any unexpected situations on the road properly; 7. Observe traffic rules and avoid rushing; 8. While driving, ensure not to overload, overspeed, or carry excess passengers.
