For turbocharged models, it is recommended to use fully synthetic engine oil. The following is an introduction to fully synthetic engine oil: 1. Fully synthetic or semi-synthetic engine oil should have good anti-wear properties, high-temperature resistance, high oil film strength, and strong shear resistance. 2. There are four types of vehicles recommended to use fully synthetic engine oil: turbocharged models, large-displacement models, direct-injection engines, and vehicles often driven in extreme climates. 3. The higher the engine speed, the stronger the oil's shear resistance is required. Shear resistance is the guarantee of oil viscosity stability. Only in this way can the lubrication ability of the oil not decrease at high speeds. Fully synthetic engine oil is superior to ordinary mineral oil, especially in terms of shear resistance, where its advantages are particularly outstanding.

What Causes the Volkswagen Coolant Temperature Warning Light to Flash?

Volkswagen coolant temperature warning light flashes due to: 1. Abnormal coolant temperature - both overheating and underheating can trigger the warning light; 2. Low coolant level - requires immediate replenishment of antifreeze/coolant; 3. Faulty sensor - if the light persists after coolant refill, the temperature sensor is likely defective; 4. Missing thermostat - reinstallation is recommended. When this warning activates, pull over immediately to prevent engine overheating/seizure (commonly called "engine boiling"). Volkswagen is a German automaker headquartered in Wolfsburg, producing models like Sagitar, Magotan, and Lavida. The Sagitar, for example, is a FAW-Volkswagen joint venture A+ class sedan measuring 4753mm (L) x 1800mm (W) x 1462mm (H).

Will points be deducted if the turn signal falls off and is replaced during Subject Three?

No points will be deducted if the turn signal is replaced after falling off during Subject Three. Methods to avoid the turn signal bouncing back are as follows: 1. Gentle steering: After turning on the left turn signal, whether the steering wheel is turned left quickly or slowly, the left turn signal will not turn off. If the steering wheel is turned right quickly, the left turn signal will automatically turn off, but turning right slowly will not turn it off. The same applies to the right turn signal. 2. Reactivate the corresponding indicator: After turning on the left turn signal, if a sharp right turn causes the left turn signal to turn off, you can pull down the light control lever again to reactivate the left turn signal. Do not continuously press the light control lever with your hand, as it not only affects steering but also poses certain safety hazards.
