Vehicle first maintenance date is calculated as follows: 1. The first maintenance date of a car is calculated from the day of vehicle pickup. 2. The initial maintenance period is generally 3 months or approximately 3000 kilometers. Different car brands have different requirements, which can be referenced in the manual. Points to note for first maintenance: 1. The first maintenance must be done at an authorized 4S dealership. All car manufacturers stipulate that only vehicles with their first maintenance performed at a 4S shop can enjoy the manufacturer's warranty. 2. The first maintenance doesn't necessarily have to be done at the dealership where you purchased the car. It can be performed at any convenient 4S shop nationwide, as all 4S stores are networked. The manufacturer will recognize the first maintenance done at any authorized dealership. 3. When taking your car to a 4S shop for maintenance (whether first or regular), the staff will inspect the vehicle's exterior appearance to check for any damages, clarifying responsibilities between the dealership and owner. 4. Always bring the vehicle warranty booklet when getting the first maintenance done, as it proves your car is under warranty. 5. The warranty booklet contains the first maintenance card. The 4S shop will collect this card during first maintenance and return it to the manufacturer as proof that the initial service was performed, ensuring your vehicle remains under warranty.

What is the solution to the brake noise issue in Skoda Octavia?

Skoda Octavia brake noise solutions are as follows: 1. A sharp squeaking sound during braking is normal and mainly related to the material of the brake pads. 2. Find a safe road section and perform emergency braking at a speed of around 40 mph to grind down the hard spots on the brake pads. Repeating this several times will eliminate the noise. 3. Remove the brake pads and chamfer them, which will effectively reduce the noise during braking. All vehicles have this issue, and the noise does not affect the normal operation of the braking system, so no action is necessary.

How to deactivate the anti-theft system on the Teana?

The method to deactivate the anti-theft system on the Teana is as follows: First, turn the ignition switch to OFF, then use the key to turn it to ON. Wait for 5 seconds before turning it back to OFF and wait another 5 seconds. Repeat this process three times, and then you can restart the engine. At this point, it indicates that the system has exited the anti-theft state. More information about the anti-theft system is provided below: 1. The reason why the Teana's anti-theft system activates is that the car was turned off without straightening the steering wheel when parking. At this time, the car will automatically enter the anti-theft system. The specific manifestation is that the car cannot be started, and the steering wheel is found to be locked and cannot be turned. 2. In addition to the above unlocking method, you can also directly go to a 4S shop for computer matching to unlock. Because the car's ignition key has an electronic chip, each chip has a specified ID. Only when the key chip ID matches the engine ID can the car be started. The 4S shop can match the same ID, thereby unlocking the Teana's anti-theft system.
