The wheelbase of the Sharan is 2920mm. The Sharan is an imported MPV model under the Volkswagen brand, with dimensions of 4854mm in length, 1904mm in width, and 1740mm in height. It has a fuel tank capacity of 73 liters, a trunk capacity of 300 liters, a minimum ground clearance of 163mm, and a curb weight of 1804kg. In terms of power, the vehicle is equipped with two engines: one is a 1.4T turbocharged engine with a maximum power of 110kW and a maximum torque of 250Nm; the other is a 2.0T turbocharged engine with a maximum power of 162kW and a maximum torque of 350Nm.

I used to drive a Volkswagen Sharan for quite some time. With a wheelbase of 2,920mm, it's quite spacious among MPVs, ensuring comfortable seating for all three rows—unlike some compact cars that feel cramped. Whether it's daily school runs for the kids or weekend family outings, loading up with large luggage and toys is never a hassle. The long wheelbase offers an added advantage of stability at high speeds, with minimal bumpiness. However, parking requires extra caution due to its larger body and slightly wider turning radius. This car is particularly suitable for drivers who frequently embark on long journeys, and its fuel consumption is relatively modest. I recommended it to friends primarily for its well-balanced space design and practicality.

How Many Years Can a Car Normally Last?

A car can normally last for 20 years. Here is some relevant information about how long a car can last: 1. The car scrappage policy has abolished the 15-year scrappage limit, replacing it with a guided scrappage at 600,000 kilometers. 2. If the car is driven 20,000 kilometers per year, it can last for 30 years; if driven 30,000 kilometers per year, it can last for 20 years. 3. The actual lifespan of a car is also influenced by many practical factors. 4. During use, car parts gradually age with frequency of use, and performance declines over time. 5. Starting from the 15th year of use, the car must undergo 2 annual inspections per year; from the 21st year, inspections increase to 4 times per year. If the car fails the inspection due to aging parts or performance degradation, it will also need to be scrapped.

What are the signs of a failing fuel pump?

There are several signs that indicate a failing fuel pump: 1. Wear of the centrifugal pump impeller leads to reduced fuel supply pressure and weak acceleration. 2. Carbon brush wear causes the fuel pump to stop, making it impossible to start the engine. Below are some symptoms after the fuel pump fails: 1. When the pump core is damaged, there is no sound of the fuel pump operating when turning the ignition key while the fuel supply system is working. 2. If the pump body is damaged, fuel pressure cannot reach the specified value due to pressure leakage. 3. Do not wait until the fuel warning light comes on before refueling, as the fuel pump relies on gasoline for heat dissipation. When the fuel level is too low, it cannot effectively cool and dissipate heat, reducing its service life.

What is Fuel Consumption Rate?

Fuel consumption rate refers to the amount of fuel consumed by an engine operating at one kilowatt of power for one hour, also known as the brake-specific fuel consumption of a vehicle. It is commonly referred to as BSFC (Brake-Specific-Fuel-Consumption). Below is relevant information about fuel consumption rate: 1. Effective fuel consumption rate refers to the fuel consumption per unit of effective work, abbreviated as fuel consumption rate; measured in grams per horsepower-hour. It is a primary indicator for measuring the fuel economy of internal combustion engines. 2. For agricultural internal combustion engines, the fuel consumption rate is generally 170-220 (grams per horsepower-hour) for diesel engines; and 240-400 (grams per horsepower-hour) for gasoline engines.

What causes the whistling sound at the fuel filler port that disappears when releasing the throttle?

This situation is most likely caused by excessive valve clearance or loose valves. Here is relevant information about the whistling sound at the fuel filler port that disappears when releasing the throttle: 1. When we press the throttle, it drives the opening and closing of the valves. Therefore, after prolonged use, the valves may experience wear or looseness. 2. When airflow blows against loose valves, the valves vibrate, producing metal collision sounds or whistling noises. 3. When this problem occurs, we can solve it by replacing the valves. During routine maintenance, we should also check whether there is carbon buildup on the valves. If there is, it should be cleaned promptly, as it can significantly affect vehicle performance.

How to Determine Carbon Buildup in a Motorcycle?

Motorcycle determine carbon buildup method is: disassemble the engine spark plug, check the carbon deposit on the spark plug. If there is carbon buildup on the spark plug, the piston will correspondingly have it too. Motorcycles are powered by gasoline engines and are two or three-wheeled vehicles steered by handlebars to control the front wheel. They are lightweight, flexible, fast-moving, and widely used for patrol, passenger and cargo transportation, as well as sports equipment. Motorcycles are divided into street bikes, road racing motorcycles, off-road motorcycles, cruisers, tourers, etc. Daily maintenance methods for motorcycles: 1. During the break-in period, control the motorcycle idle speed at 100 rpm; 2. Match the motorcycle gear with the speed; 3. When braking is needed upon detecting an obstacle ahead, release the throttle, step on the rear brake with the right foot, and gently apply the front brake with the right hand simultaneously; 4. Regularly inspect the spark plug; 5. For new spark plug installation, hand-tighten the spark plug until it can't be turned, then use a spark plug socket to tighten it about a quarter to half turn; 6. Regularly lubricate the chain.

What are the symptoms of diesel pump plunger damage?

Here are the symptoms of diesel pump plunger damage: 1. Difficulty starting when cold. 2. Delayed fuel injection timing, leading to excessive black smoke when engine speed increases or under heavy load. 3. Weak acceleration and slower speed increase. 4. Low idle speed or no idle. 5. Incomplete fuel combustion resulting in decreased diesel engine power, lack of strength, worsened exhaust emissions with black smoke, severe engine overheating, and in extreme cases of severe timing errors, complete failure to start the diesel engine or issues like intake pipe backfire. Here are the maintenance methods for diesel pumps: 1. Use high-quality diesel fuel, as inferior diesel can cause wear to the diesel pump and injectors. 2. Use original high-quality filters to effectively remove impurities from the diesel fuel and ensure its cleanliness.
