Methods to eliminate the maintenance icon are as follows: 1. Manual reset using the right button on the dashboard: First, turn off the vehicle. After the vehicle is off, hold down the reset button next to the odometer. Then, turn the car key clockwise to the ignition position. After that, press and hold the MODE button, turn off the ignition switch, and the maintenance reminder will be successfully eliminated once the ignition is successful. 2. Use a fault diagnostic tool for elimination: It is recommended that car owners go to a 4S shop to have the reminder light eliminated after servicing or directly consult relevant technicians at the 4S shop to perform the operation of eliminating the car maintenance reminder icon.

What are the functions of a car chassis?

The function of a car chassis is to support and install the car engine and its various components and assemblies, forming the overall shape of the car, receiving the power from the engine to enable the car to move and ensure normal driving. The car chassis consists of four parts: the transmission system, the running system, the steering system, and the braking system. Bottoming out can easily cause damage to parts located in the chassis section, such as: cracking of the catalytic converter shell, cracks in the engine oil pan, cracks in the transmission case, or deformation of the suspension system, etc. The occurrence of these problems can bring very fatal damage to the car. Generally, to prevent damage to the chassis, 4S shops will recommend that car owners install an engine guard plate or carry out chassis protection, commonly known as chassis armor, on the chassis.

What does it mean when the ABS warning light comes on?

When a car displays the ABS warning, it indicates a malfunction in the vehicle's Anti-lock Braking System. If the wheels lock up during emergency braking, the vehicle may lose control and skid, making it difficult for the driver to slow down or adjust the vehicle's trajectory, which poses significant safety risks. The ABS warning light can illuminate in various states, each with different causes and solutions, as detailed below: State 1: ABS warning light stays on continuously (most common). Cause 1: The ABS wheel speed sensor's sensing area is covered by dirt, mud, or other contaminants, affecting its ability to detect the corresponding speed signal. This prevents the ABS computer from determining the vehicle's speed or the wheel's slip rate, thus failing to issue appropriate commands to regulate braking. Solution: Clean the dirt from the wheel speed sensor and adjust the gap between the sensor and the signal ring to restore normal function. Cause 2: Loose connections in the system wiring or poor contact in the ABS relay can cause signal issues, leading to system failure. Solution: Check the wiring connections and reconnect any loose parts. State 2: ABS warning light intermittently illuminates but turns off when accelerating. Cause: When multiple vehicle electrical devices are in use, the battery voltage may drop below 10.5V. As the engine speed increases and voltage rises, the ABS warning light turns off. This can also occur if the ABS system's power supply voltage is too low due to poor terminal contact or grounding issues. Solution: Check the battery's specific gravity; inspect the charging system; examine the power supply (e.g., voltage relay or poor power contact). State 3: ABS warning light stays on after engine start and only turns off when the engine is turned off (IGFF). Cause: Poor grounding contact in the ABS hydraulic valve body; loose wiring connections in the ABS hydraulic valve body; ABS computer malfunction. Solution: Loosen and then retighten the grounding screw on the hydraulic valve body, cleaning the contact surface if necessary; check if the connector gap has widened; replace the ABS or ABS/ASR computer. State 4: ABS warning light illuminates during high-speed driving. Cause: At high speeds, the ABS computer detects a significant discrepancy between the rear and front wheel speed signals; incorrect tire or wheel rim specifications. Solution: Refer to the vehicle's tire and wheel rim specifications, as indicated on the label near the fuel tank cap. State 5: ABS warning light intermittently illuminates. Cause: Improper adjustment of the brake light switch; poor internal contact in the brake light. Solution: With the engine running, press the brake pedal, push the brake switch linkage down fully with your finger, then release the brake pedal to complete the self-setting process; replace the brake light switch if necessary.

How many liters of engine oil should be added to the Volkswagen Lamando?

Volkswagen Lamando requires 4.5 liters of engine oil. Before adding new oil, it is essential to drain the old oil completely. When adding oil, avoid overfilling; the oil level should be between the min and max marks on the dipstick. Adding too much or too little oil can have adverse effects on the engine, potentially disrupting its normal operation and, in severe cases, causing engine damage. The Volkswagen Lamando is equipped with a 1.4T turbocharged engine. Turbocharged engines generate greater power during operation, which also leads to increased wear on the engine itself. It is recommended to use higher-performance fully synthetic oil to protect the engine. The dimensions of the Volkswagen Lamando are 4598mm in length, 1826mm in width, and 1425mm in height, with a wheelbase of 2656mm.
