The rear light of the new Bora cannot be turned off because the dome light switch is in the door sensing state, and one of the car doors is not completely closed. New Bora: It is the second brand produced by FAW-Volkswagen after Jetta, and has gone through twelve years so far. Over the twelve years, Bora has been continuously upgraded. On December 12, 2012, the all-new Bora, with a brand-new design and full of driving pleasure, was officially launched. At the launch conference, Mr. An Tiecheng, General Manager of FAW-Volkswagen, said: The all-new Bora not only embodies the hard work of Chinese and German engineers, but also fully reflects FAW-Volkswagen's independent R&D capabilities. It is another outstanding representative of FAW-Volkswagen's commitment to creating a "synonym for high-quality cars". Location of the rear light switch in Bora: There are switches on both sides of the rear light. Press the switch to turn the rear light on or off.

I drive the new Bora, and I've encountered the issue where the rear lights won't turn off. Common causes include doors not being closed properly—the door control switch is too sensitive, and dust accumulation or damage can falsely trigger the lights. The switch for the rear reading light might also be stuck in the ON position; try manually pushing it to adjust. Additionally, the vehicle settings offer lighting modes to choose from: automatic, always on, or off. Accidentally setting it to always on will keep the lights illuminated. If none of these solutions work, it could be a control module failure or a short circuit. Volkswagen's electronic systems are complex, and a minor issue can cause a chain reaction. Fast battery drain can damage the battery, so I recommend going to a 4S shop for a computer diagnostic as soon as possible—don't try to save money now only to end up with major repairs later.

Is the white showing through on a black car the primer?

Black car showing white is the primer, because the primer color is different from the surface paint color. In addition, there are the following methods to determine if the car paint has exposed the primer: Scratch depth: The primer usually refers to the electrophoretic layer and intermediate coat at the bottom of the paint. If the scratch reaches these two layers, it indicates the scratch is very deep. Color observation: The primer color is different from the body paint color. If a different color is visible in the scratch, it definitely means the primer is damaged. Unrepairable scratches: Some car owners may try to repair scratches by washing, waxing, or polishing, which can be effective. However, if the scratches still cannot be repaired, it indicates the primer has been scratched.

Should the Anti-Slip Function of the Car Be Turned on in Snowy Weather?

In snowy weather, the anti-slip function of the car should be turned on. The role of the anti-slip button: It is a control system designed to prevent the driving wheels from slipping during acceleration. Its purpose is to prevent vehicles, especially those with high horsepower, from experiencing wheel slip during startup and acceleration, thereby maintaining the stability of the vehicle's direction, ensuring good controllability and optimal driving force, and achieving better driving safety. When encountering road surfaces where tires slip, the vehicle stability control system should be turned off.

What Causes the Exclamation Mark Light to Illuminate in the Car?

The exclamation mark light in the car illuminates due to reasons such as low brake fluid level or severe brake pad wear. Specific causes and solutions are as follows: Low Brake Fluid Level: Most vehicles are equipped with a brake fluid level warning function, and the brake fluid warning light usually shares the same indicator with the handbrake. Therefore, if the red handbrake light remains illuminated after releasing the handbrake, it is necessary to check whether the brake fluid level is too low. The solution is to replace the brake fluid as prompted. Severe Brake Pad Wear: As brake pads gradually wear thin during driving, the piston inside the brake caliper will adjust the gap caused by the wear, leading to the illumination of the exclamation mark light. The solution is to replace the brake pads.
