The 1.4L, 1.6L, and 1.4TSI gasoline engines of the Volkswagen Polo use engine oil that meets the VW50200 specification or is compatible with higher VW standards. Additionally, high-quality unleaded gasoline that complies with the GB17930 standard must be used. It is recommended to use genuine 5W-40 specification engine oil, with oil and oil filter replacements every 5,000 kilometers. Introduction to the Volkswagen Polo: 1. The spark plug model for the Volkswagen Polo is Bosch F7HER2. The new Polo's spark plugs are made of nickel alloy. 2. The Volkswagen Polo is equipped with either a Japanese Aisin 5-speed manual transmission or a 6AT automatic transmission. The manual transmission uses FAW-Volkswagen's original transmission oil, with the part number G067026A2, imported from Germany, each bottle containing 1L. The automatic transmission uses Mobil ATF3309 automatic transmission fluid, also in 1L bottles.

Regarding the question of what oil to use for the Volkswagen Polo, I think it's quite common. I drive a 2018 Polo myself and have always used 5W-30 synthetic oil, which must meet Volkswagen's VW 502.00 standard, as you can find in the manual. I commute a lot for work, so using better oil ensures the engine runs more smoothly and avoids overheating issues. I've also noticed that you need to be careful with temperature changes—thinner oil is better for starting in winter, while thicker oil prevents wear in summer. Change it every 5,000 kilometers or six months to develop a habit and save yourself from repair hassles. Never skimp on quality and buy cheap, inferior oil—engine damage can cost a fortune to fix. I recommend reputable brands like Castrol, which have a good reputation and high reliability. Overall, regular maintenance is key. If the oil goes bad, the car loses power, and keeping maintenance records is also crucial.

What does it mean when Volkswagen displays 'pressure loss detected'?

When the tire pressure monitoring system detects insufficient pressure in one or more of the vehicle's tires, it will illuminate a warning light on the dashboard along with a text alert to notify the driver. At this point, the driver should promptly adjust the tire pressure to the standard value and reset the tire pressure monitoring system to clear the warning light. Here are some common issues related to the tire pressure warning light: 1. The tire pressure monitoring system warning light remains on: If the warning light stays on after adjusting the tire pressure and performing a reset operation, it may indicate a malfunction in the tire pressure monitoring system. A common fault is low battery in the sensor electronics. 2. Warning light illuminates when heavily loaded: This occurs because the vehicle's load is too high, causing the tire pressure to exceed the preset upper limit.

At what position should the pointer be during semi-engaged clutch start?

During a semi-engaged clutch start, the pointer should be at 1 or 10. When the clutch is in a semi-engaged state, the engine speed will maintain around 1000 RPM. Different car models may represent 1000 RPM differently on their tachometers—some use the number 1 to indicate 1000 RPM, while others use 10. Below is a detailed introduction to the semi-engaged clutch in cars: 1. Overview: The semi-engaged clutch is a driving technique that achieves a perfect balance between power, speed, and vehicle protection. A semi-engaged clutch refers to the unstable connection state of the clutch, where the driver gradually reduces the pressure on the clutch pedal, causing the driving plate and driven plate to be in a state of simultaneous rotation and slipping. 2. Others: When the clutch is in a semi-engaged state, the friction between the pressure plate and the friction disc is less than that in a fully engaged state. The pressure plate and the friction disc on the flywheel are in a sliding friction state. The speed of the flywheel is greater than that of the output shaft, and only part of the power from the flywheel is transmitted to the gearbox.

Where is the longitudinal beam located?

Longitudinal beams are divided into front longitudinal beams and rear longitudinal beams. The front longitudinal beam is located below the front engine compartment of the car, while the rear longitudinal beam is situated beneath the trunk. Here are some relevant details: 1. Frame: The frame is the most important load-bearing component in a car, and the longitudinal beam is one of its key parts. Therefore, the longitudinal beam plays a crucial role in bearing loads. Various types of frames, such as side rail frames and central backbone frames, all include longitudinal beams. Longitudinal beams are typically made by stamping low-alloy steel plates, with cross-sectional shapes usually being channel-shaped, though some are designed as Z-shaped or box-shaped sections. 2. Longitudinal Beam: Depending on the vehicle type and structural layout requirements, longitudinal beams can be curved in the horizontal or longitudinal plane and can have uniform or non-uniform cross-sections. The advantage of a Z-shaped longitudinal beam is that it allows the frame to maintain equal width at the front and rear, ensuring sufficient space in the front part of the frame to accommodate the diesel engine flywheel housing and the starter mounted on it. However, its drawback is that when connecting the longitudinal beam to the cross beam, an additional shim plate is required on the upper flange of the longitudinal beam, making it less convenient to install related assemblies on the web of the beam.

Why does the freshly sprayed clear coat lose its shine quickly?

Reasons for loss of shine are as follows: 1. Quality issues – poor quality clear coats tend to lose shine after application. 2. Concentration – high-concentration clear coats may cause a hazy appearance on the sides after spraying. The ideal technique is "thin and wet" application. 3. Technique – improper spraying can result in a hazy and uneven surface. Fullness mainly depends on the clear coat. For example, black paint may appear less deep after application and feel thin once dried, but polishing can restore a fuller look. Below is an introduction to painting and baking finishes: 1. Baking finish: Factory car paint is baked, also known as "high-temperature paint." It involves a highly complex manufacturing process and can only be applied to a bare car frame. The process includes multiple layers such as body filler, epoxy primer, mid-coat primer, base coat, and clear coat. Some premium brand paints undergo even more complex treatments to achieve optimal results, with processing temperatures exceeding 200°C. 2. Spray painting: This method involves using a spray gun or disc atomizer to disperse paint into fine droplets through pressure or centrifugal force, which are then applied to the surface. Spray painting is commonly used for basic automotive repairs.

What is the tire model of the Baojun 730?

The tire model of the Baojun 730 is 195/55R16. The first number 195 indicates that the tire width is 195MM, 55 represents the aspect ratio of the tire section as 55%, meaning the section height is 55% of the width. The letter R stands for radial tire, and 16 denotes the rim diameter of 16 inches. The Baojun 730 has a top speed of 130km/h, accelerates from 0 to 100km/h in 3.98 seconds, and has a fuel consumption of 4.5L per 100km. In addition to the model, the tire also carries the following common data: Tire cord material: Indicated by Chinese pinyin, such as M-cotton cord, R-rayon cord, N-nylon cord, G-steel cord, ZG-steel radial cord tire. Speed rating: Indicates the maximum speed at which the tire can carry a specified load under defined conditions. Letters A to Z represent the certified speed ratings of tires from 4.8km/h to 300km/h. Commonly used speed ratings include: Q: 160km/h; H: 210km/h; V: 240km/h; W: 270km/h; Y: 300km/h; Rim specification: Indicates the rim specification compatible with the tire for practical use, such as 'Standard rim 5.00F'.

Do You Need to Press the Accelerator When Turning or Making a U-Turn?

It depends on the actual situation. Pressing the accelerator is only for controlling the speed, and sometimes you may need to press the brake when making a U-turn. Steering wheel control is crucial when turning. If you want to make a tight turn, you should turn the steering wheel as much as possible and then gradually straighten it after completing the turn. For a wide turn, slowly turn the steering wheel. Be mindful of blind spots when turning; always check for obstacles below the rearview mirror and, if necessary, open the door to look before turning. Additional tips: 1. Make left turns as wide as possible: Some vehicles might be exiting the road you intend to turn into. To avoid obstruction or collisions, try to turn into a farther point. When making a right turn, you might encounter vehicles going straight, such as at intersections. In such cases, make a tight turn to avoid interfering with the straight-moving traffic. 2. The longer the vehicle, the larger the turning radius, and the higher the risk: Large trucks and construction vehicles, due to their height and size, can create significant blind spots when turning right. The driver, seated on the left side, relies on the rearview mirror to observe the right rear, which offers limited visibility. Small objects like electric bikes, bicycles, and pedestrians might go unnoticed. Entering the inner wheel's blind spot can be dangerous.
