Volkswagen Touareg uses an on-demand four-wheel drive system. The following are the advantages and characteristics of the on-demand four-wheel drive system: Advantages of the on-demand four-wheel drive system: The on-demand four-wheel drive system can intelligently distribute power between the front and rear axles in real-time according to road conditions during highway driving. Compared to a full-time four-wheel drive system, the on-demand four-wheel drive system can improve agility, stability, and handling responsiveness during highway driving. Characteristics of the on-demand four-wheel drive system: The on-demand four-wheel drive system can actively distribute power between the front and rear axles during acceleration. During high-speed steady-state driving, power is mainly transmitted to the rear axle, and at certain speeds, even 100% of the power can be allocated to the rear axle. This ensures stability and agility during acceleration while also improving fuel economy during high-speed steady-state driving. For most daily highway driving, the on-demand four-wheel drive system ensures driving stability while improving fuel economy.

I've been studying cars for nearly twenty years. The Touareg uses Volkswagen's 4Motion all-wheel-drive system, specifically based on the Haldex fifth-generation clutch. This system is intelligently designed, primarily operating in front-wheel drive to save fuel under normal conditions. However, the moment it detects front-wheel slip—such as on slippery roads or during rapid acceleration—it can instantly redistribute up to 50% of the torque to the rear wheels, enhancing stability and traction. It performs exceptionally well in rain or snow, responding faster than some older all-wheel-drive systems. That said, it's not suited for high-intensity off-roading due to the lack of a mechanical lock; it might struggle in extremely rough terrain. I recommend owners check the clutch fluid and connection plugs every two years to prevent dust accumulation from causing malfunctions. Regular maintenance ensures the system remains durable and reliable over time.

Can a driver's license be renewed in advance?

A driver's license can be renewed in advance. Article 57 of the "Traffic Regulations and Penalty Points Rules" states: A motor vehicle driver shall apply for license renewal at the vehicle management office of the license issuing location or elsewhere within 90 days before the expiration of the motor vehicle driver's license. If the driver's license expires, traffic police will impose a fine upon discovery, but no penalty points will be deducted. There is a latest deadline for license renewal. If the license has expired for less than one year, it can be renewed through the normal process; if it has expired between one to three years, the license will be canceled, but it can be re-obtained by passing the subject one exam; if it has expired for more than three years, the license will be canceled. Article 57 of the "Traffic Regulations and Penalty Points Rules": When applying, the applicant shall fill out the application form and submit the following documents and proofs: the identity proof of the motor vehicle driver, the motor vehicle driver's license, and a medical condition certificate issued by a county-level or military regimental-level medical institution. For applications for a special small automatic passenger vehicle for the disabled, a medical condition certificate issued by a specialized medical institution designated by the provincial health authority shall be submitted. Materials required for renewing a driver's license: original ID card and its copy, a qualified medical examination form from a hospital designated by the vehicle management office, three one-inch white-background color photos, a completed driver's license renewal application form, and the processing fee. The photos and medical examination proof required for renewal can be brought by the applicant. If concerned about their validity, these can be processed directly at the traffic police department's certification hall to avoid delays. Relevant matters for renewing an expired driver's license: Regarding renewal: For annual review and renewal of an expired driver's license, the old license must be surrendered to the vehicle management office. Before renewal, all related traffic violations must be resolved; otherwise, the application will not be accepted. Renewal of a motor vehicle driver's license can be done through the mobile app "Traffic Management 12123," or via the vehicle management office, traffic management departments, or public security authorities, ensuring an effective renewal process.

How to Prevent Transmission from Making Abnormal Noises

Methods to prevent transmission abnormal noises include: 1. Use genuine automatic transmission fluid, as counterfeit fluids have poor temperature resistance and oxidize easily, forming sludge that clogs filters and oil passages, increasing internal component friction and causing noises; 2. Promptly repair water-ingress transmissions to avoid oil leaks, abnormal sounds, or jerking; 3. Avoid frequent fluid changes which remove protective layers between components, accelerating wear and potentially damaging planetary gearsets or differentials - internal damage leads to transmission noises.
