Reasons for the Volkswagen Front Assist system being unavailable: If the car has not been checked for windshield washer fluid for a long time, you need to inspect the condition of the washer fluid. If it is too low, refilling it can also eliminate the warning. If this warning appears after replacing the fuel injectors, simply run the car for two minutes in a cold state. Functions of the Front Assist system: 1. Monitoring: The radar sensor installed in the front grille of the vehicle continuously monitors the distance to the vehicle ahead. 2. Warning: In emergencies, it preconditions the brakes and alerts the driver through optical and acoustic warnings as well as brake vibrations to take appropriate action. 3. Automatic deceleration: If the driver's braking action is insufficient, the Front Assist system will generate the necessary braking pressure to avoid a collision; if the driver does not brake at all, the system will automatically decelerate the vehicle. 4. Automatic emergency braking: If the driver does not respond to these warnings, targeted braking will automatically commence.

What is the actual fuel consumption of the Jianghuai Ruifeng 2.0?

The Jianghuai Ruifeng model equipped with a 2.0-liter naturally aspirated engine has a fuel consumption of 11 liters per 100 kilometers. Below is an introduction to fuel consumption per 100 kilometers: 1. Fuel consumption per 100 kilometers is an indicator for vehicles. Standardized fuel consumption is a statistical norm. The slower the vehicle travels within the economical speed range, the higher the fuel consumption per 100 kilometers. Since most vehicles approach their economical speed at 90 km/h, the theoretical fuel consumption announced by manufacturers is usually the fuel consumption per 100 kilometers at 90 km/h. 2. If the engine speed is maintained within the same safe range, the hourly fuel consumption remains the same regardless of the vehicle's speed. For calculating fuel consumption on highways or in engineering transportation, the first two norms are not suitable, and calculating by hourly fuel consumption is more accurate.

What is the purpose of the newly installed gantry on the highway?

It is part of the nationwide implementation of a segmented toll collection system using ETC gantries on highways. The ETC gantry is equipped with devices to identify vehicle information. Through two-way microwave communication between the electronic license plate installed on the vehicle's windshield and the microwave antenna on the ETC lane gantry at the toll station, big data processing is utilized. This allows vehicles to pay tolls without stopping when passing through highway toll stations, with payment deducted after passage. Below is the toll collection method via ETC gantries: 1. The biggest advantage of highway gantries is enabling non-stop toll collection. Vehicles are automatically charged when passing under the gantry, ensuring more accurate tolling. 2. Toll amounts are rounded to the nearest multiple of 5, currently using "rounding" to the nearest "yuan." For ETC card users enjoying a 5% discount, amounts are rounded to the nearest "fen."

What are the driving tips for beginners with manual transmission?

Tips for beginners driving a manual transmission are: 1. Lift the clutch until you feel the engagement point, which is when the car is about to move, also known as the half-clutch state, then stop lifting and hold it steady, then slowly release the clutch, and the car will start smoothly. 2. Coordination between the clutch and the accelerator, which means lifting the clutch to the half-clutch state and holding it steady, then slightly pressing the accelerator while slowly releasing the clutch, allowing the car to start smoothly. Precautions for beginners: 1. During the first half of lifting the clutch, which is the free travel stage of the clutch, the lifting speed can be faster. 2. At the engagement point, which is the half-clutch state, be sure to pause for a moment. 3. During the process from half-clutch to full clutch, the speed of releasing the clutch should be slower and steadier.

Why Won't My Car Start?

Here are the reasons why a vehicle won't start: 1. Dead battery: A depleted battery, poor contact at the terminals, or issues with the battery management system can all affect the car's ability to start. 2. Starter motor damage: An aging starter motor can also cause difficulty in starting the car, which should be distinguished from the car not starting at all. Generally, after the starter motor exceeds its service life, it will exhibit weak starting performance. 3. Anti-theft system malfunction: One issue that is relatively easy to damage is the anti-theft system malfunction, which can cause the vehicle to have no response when starting. 4. Extremely low ambient temperature: This has a significant impact on the car as a whole, affecting not only the engine oil and gasoline but also reducing the starting power of the battery due to the low temperature.

Can the fuel filter be left unchanged?

Fuel filters need to be replaced if they are damaged or excessively dirty. The primary function of a fuel filter is to remove impurities from gasoline. Failure to replace the fuel filter can lead to clogged fuel lines, poor combustion, resulting in excessive carbon buildup, reduced vehicle power, abnormal shaking, and ultimately, the car failing to start or suddenly stalling while driving. Below are symptoms of a faulty fuel filter: 1. Frequent stalling - When the fuel filter is clogged, gasoline delivery is compromised, causing insufficient fuel supply to the engine. This results in noticeable jerking during driving or gear shifts and makes the engine prone to stalling at idle. 2. Reduced driving power - Due to restricted fuel flow, the engine's power output decreases, leading to weak acceleration and reduced vehicle speed. 3. Engine shaking at idle - Moderate clogging of the fuel filter may not significantly affect driving power but can cause the engine to shake when the car is idling.

What Causes the Engine Malfunction Light to Illuminate?

There are primarily 7 reasons for the engine malfunction light to illuminate: Sensor failure: The sensors mentioned here include coolant temperature, crankshaft position, air flow, intake air temperature, oxygen sensors, etc. When these sensors are damaged, have poor contact, or experience signal interruption, the vehicle's ECU cannot accurately obtain engine data, which triggers the engine malfunction light. Fuel quality issues: If fuel and engine oil are not added according to the manufacturer's requirements, it may cause engine wear and lead to the malfunction light illuminating. Poor combustion of the air-fuel mixture: Poor combustion can lead to engine carbon buildup or knocking. When detected by the oxygen sensor and reported to the ECU, the malfunction light will illuminate as a warning. Spark plug failure, ignition coil failure, fuel pump failure, and fuel line blockages can all cause poor combustion of the engine's air-fuel mixture. Turbocharging issues: The intake turbocharging pipeline and turbocharger can also cause the engine malfunction light to illuminate. The most common issue is turbocharger damage, accompanied by symptoms such as oil leaks, high oil consumption, reduced power, metallic noises, and blue or black smoke from the exhaust pipe. Intake issues: If the vehicle's intake system has problems, it may lead to engine pipeline blockages, and in severe cases, cause the engine malfunction light to illuminate. A dirty air filter that is not cleaned regularly can lead to intake problems. Exhaust issues: Exhaust system failures can also cause the engine malfunction light to illuminate. The rear oxygen sensor, catalytic converter, exhaust camshaft, and bearing failures are all causes of exhaust problems, with the catalytic converter being the most common. Using leaded gasoline, lead or silicon-based lubricant additives, physical damage to the catalytic converter, or engine fuel supply system failures can easily cause catalytic converter issues. Anti-theft system failure: If the vehicle's electronic anti-theft system malfunctions or if the anti-theft controller does not match the engine electronic controller, the anti-theft system can prevent the engine from operating normally and cause the malfunction light to illuminate. If the engine malfunction light is on, follow these steps: First, check if the engine is running normally and whether there are issues such as shaking or black smoke. If so, avoid restarting the engine. Note: Do not restart the engine if the red light is on. If the engine can start, turn it off and wait 5-10 minutes. Without pressing the brake, press the start button once or turn the key halfway to the "on" position without pressing the clutch. The vehicle will perform a self-check after powering on. Wait 5-10 seconds and observe whether the malfunction light on the dashboard turns off. If the malfunction light remains on, visit a service station as soon as possible to identify the cause. The service station can use a portable diagnostic tool to read the fault codes, obtain fault information, and perform targeted repairs.
