When I bought this car, the 4S dealership reminded me that the first maintenance for the SAIC Volkswagen Polo must be completed within six months or after driving 5,000 kilometers, whichever comes first. Since I use this car for commuting, I reached the mileage in just three months and took it directly to the shop for the first maintenance. Changing the engine oil and oil filter is standard procedure, and the technician also checked the chassis bolts, tire pressure, and lighting system. Remember to bring the maintenance manual—the first service is free from the manufacturer, so don’t miss the deadline. My neighbor waited over seven months to go and ended up paying more than 600 yuan out of pocket—a total loss. I recommend setting a reminder on your phone as soon as you bring your new car home to avoid forgetting such an important task.

Should a T-equipped car use 30 or 40 engine oil?

Use 30 engine oil for T-equipped cars. Characteristics of T-equipped cars: T-equipped cars refer to vehicles with turbocharged engines. Turbocharged engines operate at higher temperatures and rely on engine oil for lubrication and cooling. Therefore, it is recommended to use high-viscosity, high-quality engine oil to reduce oil consumption and maintain good cylinder pressure. Types of engine oil: Engine oil is categorized into full synthetic oil, semi-synthetic oil, and mineral oil. Most turbocharged models on the market use full synthetic oil, and mineral oil should be avoided as much as possible. The turbocharger also requires lubrication, but due to its extremely high rotational speed, it accelerates oil degradation. Hence, it is essential to use full synthetic oil with better stability.

Why don't modern sedans have mud flaps anymore?

The reason modern sedans don't have mud flaps is that mud flaps would affect the vehicle's aerodynamic characteristics. Impact of installing mud flaps on vehicles: After installing mud flaps, they disrupt the underbody airflow design of the vehicle, obstruct the flow of air beneath the car, increase underbody turbulence, slow down airflow speed, thereby increasing the vehicle's drag coefficient. This also makes the car more prone to lift, creating a floating sensation during high-speed driving and significantly increasing wind noise. Function of mud flaps: Mud flaps are installed behind the tires to block mud and debris kicked up by the tires, preventing flying stones from damaging the car body. Most mud flaps are made of plastic or rubber materials, considered consumable parts whose lifespan mainly depends on road conditions.

How many hours does it take to fully charge a 60v32 battery?

60v32 takes 6 to 8 hours to fully charge. Charging time: Slow charging is stable, safe, and takes longer. Most conventional charging stations use 220V household voltage for slow charging, as residential circuits can handle the current and voltage requirements. Slow charging typically takes 5 to 8 hours. Fast charging is quicker and more time-efficient but has higher requirements. Fast charging usually employs dedicated off-board DC chargers installed at fixed charging stations. Maintenance methods for poor battery power supply: If you notice poor power supply, avoid using onboard power sources before starting the car, such as electric air pumps, audio systems, warning lights, or power windows. Also, do not start the car and then immediately turn it off, as the battery consumes a significant amount of power upon startup and may not have fully recharged. Excessive power consumption will only worsen the battery's insufficient supply, making it harder to start and shortening its lifespan.
