An exhaust gas turbocharger works by directing the exhaust gases from the engine into a turbine, using the energy of the exhaust gases to drive the turbine's rotation, which in turn drives the compressor mounted on the same shaft to achieve pressurization. The turbine wheel and the compressor wheel are rigidly connected via the turbocharger shaft, forming what is known as the turbocharger rotor, which is supported by floating bearings within the turbocharger. During engine operation, the expelled exhaust gases impact the turbine wheel at high speed and a specific angle, causing the turbocharger rotor to spin rapidly. The high-speed rotation of the compressor wheel increases the air pressure in the engine's intake manifold, thereby achieving the desired pressurization effect.

Is the new Lavida equipped with a one-key start?

Only the 280TSI Luxury version of the Volkswagen New Lavida is equipped with a one-key start function, while other standard models do not have this feature.

Automatic door unlocking: When the owner approaches the vehicle within approximately 3 meters, the door locks will automatically open, disabling the anti-theft system. 2. When the owner leaves the vehicle, the door locks will automatically lock, activating the anti-theft system. 3. When the owner enters the vehicle, simply pressing the start button is sufficient, enabling keyless operation. 4. If the position sensor fails or the ignition matching fails, a mechanical key will be required to start the car. Additional information: The one-key start intelligent system features include automatic unlocking, automatic locking, automatic window closing, automatic anti-theft, one-key start, one-key shutdown, automatic locking before driving, automatic unlocking when parking and shutting down, and a trunk opening function.

What is the optimal mileage for the first maintenance of a new Sylphy?

The optimal mileage for the first maintenance of a new Sylphy is 5,000 kilometers. The first maintenance is the initial service after the vehicle leaves the factory and hits the road. In addition to the routine replacement of engine oil and oil filter, technicians will also inspect major components of the vehicle, such as checking the torque of suspension bolts and looking for any oil leaks in the engine or transmission, to prevent potential vehicle abnormalities. Therefore, it is essential to follow the recommended time or mileage and visit the 4S dealership for maintenance. Maintenance items include: replacing engine oil, oil filter, air filter, fuel filter, transmission fluid, cabin air filter, and engine belt; inspecting spark plugs, tires, and braking system; topping up brake fluid; and cleaning fuel injectors and throttle body. First maintenance precautions: Confirm the first maintenance time and mileage for your car. Be sure not to miss the free first maintenance service due to exceeding the time or mileage limit. Schedule the first maintenance appointment in advance. It is recommended to call the local dealership's after-sales service one day in advance to book the first maintenance appointment. When scheduling the appointment, inquire about the required documents to bring, such as the purchase invoice.
