The wading depth is 0 to 150mm. Below is relevant information about wading: 1. Water level in the wading area exceeds the midpoint of the wheel: If the water level in the wading area exceeds the midpoint of the wheel, water can enter the transmission case through the cooling holes. When dust and impurities deposit on moving parts, it can slightly alter the clearance between components, causing parts such as the clutch release fork, rack, and bearings to operate sluggishly. In severe cases, it can lead to rust and motion interference, resulting in clutch overheating and burnout. 2. Dry dual-clutch transmission: Dry dual-clutch transmissions can withstand relatively small torque and are generally paired with lower horsepower engines. The clutch plates of a dry dual-clutch transmission directly engage with the engine's flywheel, and the heat generated during operation is dissipated through the air.

What is the normal tire pressure unit?

According to the international GBT2978-2008 standard requirements, the recommended tire pressures for different types of tires are as follows: Standard tires: 2.4-2.5 bar; Reinforced tires: 2.8-2.9 bar; Maximum pressure: should not exceed 3.5 bar. Hazards of overinflated tires: Reduced tire friction and adhesion, affecting braking performance; Causes steering wheel vibration and deviation, reducing driving comfort; Accelerates wear on the central tread pattern, shortening tire lifespan; Increases vehicle vibration, indirectly affecting the lifespan of other components; Causes excessive stretching deformation of tire cords, reducing elasticity and increasing vehicle load during driving; Decreases puncture resistance. When encountering sharp objects like nails or glass on the road, they can easily penetrate the tire, causing internal cracks or blowouts that may lead to tire bursts.

What is a mid-cycle facelift?

Mid-cycle facelift refers to some modifications made to the exterior appearance of a car. Here is more information about vehicle facelifts: 1. Initial stage: Mainly addresses issues that arise after the new car's release. These fixes are generally essential, so purchasing the initial version of the model is relatively cost-effective, as many problems are resolved after a period of experience accumulation. 2. Mid-cycle: Mid-cycle facelifts typically involve recalibrating the car's engine performance, such as increasing horsepower, enlarging wheel rims, or even adding some equipment. 3. Final stage: When a car model is in its last 1 to 2 years before a generation change, there will be a major facelift. Usually, the highest trim level of the model will be introduced at this time, with significant changes to the exterior (though not fundamental), such as reshaping the headlights, taillights, front and rear fenders, and substantial optimization of the interior, etc.

Can You Drive Over the Front Dotted Line When Reversing into a Parking Space?

You can drive over the line when entering, as the dotted line is the waiting area, but you must not cross the solid line marking the parking space. Here are the detailed instructions: 1. Avoid driving over the solid lines on both sides: When you observe the car body becoming parallel to the parking space boundary during the reversing process, quickly straighten the steering wheel and check the distance between the car body and the left and right boundary lines in the rearview mirror. 2. Right-side reversing into the space: Reduce the speed to the minimum to allow more time for adjusting the car body. During the reversing process, focusing solely on a single point may make it difficult to handle unexpected situations during the test. 3. Driving over the boundary line: If you are about to drive over the left boundary line and fail to make adjustments, you will end up crossing the left boundary line.

Which Button is the Air Conditioning Cool Button in a Car?

The air conditioning cool button in a car is the AC button. Here are some precautions for using the car air conditioning: 1. Ventilate before turning it on: When the car has been exposed to the sun for a long time, open all four doors and the sunroof first to allow air to circulate inside the car for 3 minutes. This will quickly lower the temperature inside the car, making the air conditioning more effective. 2. Use the recirculation mode wisely: The recirculation mode blocks the hot air outside, creating a closed space inside the car where the air can circulate quickly under the effect of the air conditioning, achieving rapid cooling. Once the temperature inside the car has dropped, it is recommended to switch to the fresh air mode every 30 minutes to purify the air inside the car, then switch back to recirculation mode after 5 minutes. 3. Turn off the air conditioning in time: Turn off the air conditioning 5 minutes before parking to protect the engine and save fuel.

What does the three-point alignment mean in reverse parking?

The following is a detailed introduction to the three-point alignment in reverse parking: 1. Introduction: The three points refer to: the eyes, a certain position on the car body, and a mark on the ground. When these three points are aligned, the position of the car can be determined. 2. Judging the position: Look at the red dot position with your eyes, a node on the wiper (some are dots, some are squares), and align it with the line on the right side of the road. This indicates that the right line is approximately 30cm away from the car. 3. Reverse parking: When your eyes just see the lower edge of the left rearview mirror aligning with the parking line, it means the car is properly parked. This is because the eyes, the lower edge of the left rearview mirror, and the ground in front of the car form the three-point alignment.

How to Check the Oil Level in an A4?

Audi A4 uses an electronic oil dipstick, and the engine oil level can be checked on the central control screen inside the car. More relevant information is as follows: 1. Engine Oil Level: If the oil level is below the MIN mark, it means there is too little oil, which may lead to insufficient lubrication of the engine. If the oil level is above the MAX mark, it is also not acceptable, as this will increase the internal resistance during engine operation and may damage the catalytic converter. 2. Frequently Check the Oil Level: Some German cars are prone to burning oil. If your car burns oil, you need to check the oil level frequently and add oil promptly when the level is insufficient. 3. Low Oil Level Warning: Cars equipped with an electronic oil dipstick will issue a warning when the oil level is too low. If a warning appears while driving, you should add oil immediately and check whether the car is burning or leaking oil. 4. After Adding Oil: Always tighten the oil filler cap securely; otherwise, it may result in oil loss after driving for some time.
