2015 Volkswagen Tiguan is equipped with the Aisin tiptronic 6-speed automatic transmission. Aisin (Aisin Seiki) is a Japanese company specializing in automatic transmissions, established in 1969. It is a joint venture between Aisin and BorgWarner and a subsidiary of Aisin Seiki Co., Ltd. The Toyota Group holds a 22.2% stake in Aisin Seiki. The Shanghai Volkswagen Tiguan does not feature the mainstream DSG dual-clutch transmission used by the Volkswagen Group but instead utilizes the mature 6-speed automatic transmission (AQ250) produced by Aisin. In terms of power, Shanghai Volkswagen initially launched the Tiguan with 1.8T and 2.0T engines, both paired with Aisin's 6-speed automatic transmission (AQ250). Other automotive websites report that the Tiguan is equipped with two engines (1.8TSI and 2.0TSI), matched with either a 6-speed manual or Tiptronic 6-speed automatic transmission. The Shanghai Volkswagen Tiguan Silk Road version, however, uses a dual-clutch transmission.

The dual-clutch transmission in the 2015 Tiguan was particularly interesting. When I test drove it back then, I could clearly feel the lightning-fast gear shifts. The standard 1.4T version came with a seven-speed dry dual-clutch transmission, model named DQ200, which was indeed fuel-efficient for city commuting, but prone to overheating during frequent gear changes in traffic jams. The 1.8T and 2.0T versions were equipped with the six-speed wet-type DQ250, which was more durable and could handle higher torque. The most notable driving characteristic was the direct power delivery, though occasional jerks could occur at low speeds, especially during shifts between second and third gears. Later, many owners reported issues with the mechatronic unit, but regular transmission software updates could help mitigate these problems. I remember a friend's car suddenly losing power once, and it was resolved only after replacing the clutch plates – this type of transmission requires special attention to fluid conditions during maintenance.

What is the range of the Geely Emgrand EV?

Generally, the range is around 400 kilometers. The Emgrand EV300 offers five charging modes, with an upgraded 6.6KW onboard slow charger to meet more charging needs and enhance charging versatility. Using a 60kW public fast-charging pile, it can charge from 0% to 80% in 45 minutes; with a 10kW fast-charging box, it takes 4.5 hours for a full charge; the newly added 6.6kW slow-charging pile can fully charge the vehicle in 7 hours. Additionally, the Emgrand EV300 can use a 3.3kW home slow-charging box and a 1.8kW emergency charging cable, providing five charging modes for greater convenience. Driving Habits: These are crucial for the power consumption of the vehicle's powertrain, closely related to throttle opening, discharge current, driving conditions, and speed. Pay attention to the discharge current, maintaining it at a low and stable output for better energy efficiency. For example, gently and lightly pressing the accelerator pedal, avoiding sudden braking, using ECO mode, and maximizing the vehicle's energy recovery function are recommended. Try to minimize the use of SPORT mode. Vehicle Load: Carrying passengers or heavy loads in the vehicle, or having low tire pressure, will consume more power to overcome driving resistance, leading to increased power consumption during driving and reduced range.

What are the smallest off-road vehicles from Mercedes-Benz?

Mercedes-Benz's smallest off-road vehicles are as follows: Mercedes-Benz GLA: The Mercedes-Benz GLA is positioned as a compact SUV and offers good discounts at dealerships, with prices starting under 200,000 RMB. Its secret weapon is the Mercedes-Benz brand name, combined with highly attractive pricing, which appeals to many status-conscious buyers. Compared to the Changan Lincoln Adventurer, the GLA's space is quite average, but it is still adequate for normal use. Such vehicles generally have modest sales, but their configurations are not too bad. If you are only interested in the brand, the GLA is still a viable option. Mercedes-Benz GLB: The Mercedes-Benz GLB is a compact SUV that offers both 5-seater and 7-seater variants, making it more practical. However, the third row in the 7-seater version is only suitable for emergency use. Its boxy design gives it a slightly rugged appearance, but the vehicle is still more city-oriented, with a relatively low chassis. The entire lineup is powered by a 1.3T engine, which is weak in terms of both displacement and actual power, making it suitable for consumers who prefer a more relaxed driving style.

Replacement Criteria for Sharan Brake Fluid?

Brake fluid does not have a fixed replacement standard; typically, the moisture content of the brake fluid serves as the basis for replacement. This is because moisture lowers the boiling point of the brake fluid, causing vapor to form in the lines during braking, ultimately leading to ineffective travel and making the brake pedal feel soft, thereby affecting braking performance. Most manufacturers recommend replacing the brake fluid every two years or 40,000 kilometers, although this standard is somewhat conservative. Below is additional information: Reasons for replacement every two years or 40,000 kilometers: Manufacturers recommend replacing brake fluid at intervals of two years or 40,000 kilometers as a general consideration, as they cannot precisely monitor the actual condition of the brake fluid in every vehicle sold. For instance, some vehicles are used frequently, subjected to heavy braking loads, or operate in humid environments, while others are used sparingly, experience light braking loads, or are in dry environments. Therefore, to strike a balanced approach, the recommendation of two years or 40,000 kilometers was established. If the vehicle is primarily used for commuting with little aggressive driving, there is no need to adhere strictly to the manufacturer's recommendation; simply refer to the moisture content. Brake fluid replacement criteria: When the moisture content of the brake fluid reaches 3.5%, it can be replaced. Of course, if the driving environment is merely congested urban traffic, delaying replacement slightly is acceptable. In congested urban conditions with low average speeds, frequent braking does not generate excessive heat, so replacement within a 4% moisture content is sufficient.

Why can't the rear door of Mercedes-Benz GLC260 be opened from the inside?

If the rear door of a Mercedes-Benz GLC cannot be opened from the inside, it is usually due to the child lock being engaged. The owner needs to move the child lock on the side of the door in the opposite direction and turn it to the unlocked position to open the door. If the child lock is not engaged, then there might be an issue with the car, and it should be sent for repair promptly. Function of the Child Safety Lock: The child safety lock is used for the rear doors of the vehicle to prevent the danger of the doors being opened from the inside while the vehicle is moving. When this device is activated, even if the electronic central door lock is opened, the device remains in the locked state. To open the rear door, it can only be done from the outside switch when the central door lock is in the unlocked state. Solution for the Child Safety Lock: The car child safety lock, also known as the door lock child safety, is located on the rear door lock. Open the rear door, and below the lock, there is a small lever (safety mechanism). Move it toward the end with the child icon, then close the door. At this point, the door cannot be opened from the inside but only from the outside. Its purpose is to prevent active and unaware children from opening the door while the car is moving, thereby avoiding danger. In this case, the door can only be opened from the outside by an adult after the car is parked. If the rear door cannot be opened from the inside but can be opened from the outside, it is highly likely that the child safety lock is engaged. This happens when passengers in the rear seat accidentally activate the safety mechanism while getting in or out of the car. Simply reset it to resolve the issue.

When can I get the license plate after selection?

Selected license plates can be obtained within 3 to 5 working days. You can submit a self-compiled license plate number on the vehicle management office website. A vehicle's license plate number serves as its identification code. Generally, blue plates represent ordinary private vehicles, yellow plates indicate regular large vehicles, white plates denote military or police vehicles, while black plates are used by foreign investors in China or important figures. License plates are metal or plastic sheets affixed to the front and rear of vehicles, typically made of aluminum, iron, plastic or paper. Their primary function is to identify the vehicle's registration region and enable tracking of ownership and registration details through the plate number.
