The fog lights on the Passat are located at the light switch below the left side of the steering wheel. Turn the headlight switch to the position for parking lights or headlights, then pull the switch upwards. Pulling it one notch turns on the front fog lights, and pulling it two notches turns on both the front and rear fog lights simultaneously. The purpose of fog lights is to make the vehicle visible to others in conditions of reduced visibility, such as fog or heavy rain, by using a light source with strong penetration. The Passat is a mid-size sedan designed by Volkswagen AG in Germany, classified as a B-segment car in the Volkswagen lineup. Its models include the New Passat 1.4TSI, New Passat V6, Santana Zhijun 1.8L, Passat B8, and Passat Lingyu, among others.

How Many Days in Advance Can a Vehicle Annual Inspection Be Conducted?

Vehicle annual inspections can be conducted up to three months in advance. For example, if a vehicle's inspection validity expires in September of this year, the annual inspection period would be from July 1st to September 30th of the same year. There are several ways to check the annual inspection date. The most straightforward methods are to review the vehicle registration certificate and the electronic copy of the compulsory traffic insurance policy, both of which display the vehicle's registration date. The registration month indicates the month when the annual inspection is due. Additionally, you can directly check the annual inspection sticker, which clearly states the validity period of the inspection. Important notes regarding annual inspections: Vehicles that fail the inspection must be repaired within a specified time frame. If they still fail after the deadline, the vehicle management office will confiscate the license plates and prohibit further use. Vehicles that do not undergo the inspection without a valid reason or fail the inspection are not allowed to be driven on the road or transferred to another jurisdiction. Vehicles that meet the criteria for scrap or exceed the prescribed service life will not be inspected, and their license plates will be revoked, their records deleted, and they will be classified as scrap.

How to Prevent Rolling Back When Driving an Automatic Transmission Car on a Slope?

There are three methods to prevent rolling back when driving an automatic transmission car on a slope: 1. Use your left foot to press the brake pedal while stepping on the accelerator with your right foot. Increase the RPM to above 3000, then release the brake with your left foot. However, since the foot brake applies braking force to all four wheels simultaneously, locking the drive wheels while stepping on the accelerator may theoretically damage the transmission gears. 2. Engage the handbrake, release the foot brake, and step on the accelerator. Once the RPM reaches a certain level, release the handbrake to start moving. This method is similar to the principle of starting a manual transmission car on a slope. Since the handbrake locks the rear wheels, it won’t damage the transmission. 3. "Hovering": Before approaching the toll booth, completely release the accelerator without pressing the brake. When the car's forward momentum completely disappears, gently press the accelerator. At this point, the gravitational pull and the engine’s power reach a balanced state, allowing the car to stop completely on the slope without using the brake or handbrake.

What Does the Torque of a Small Car Represent?

The torque of a car refers to the moment of force output from the crankshaft end of the engine. Under a fixed power condition, it has an inverse relationship with the engine speed: the faster the speed, the smaller the torque, and vice versa. This reflects the car's load capacity within a certain range. Torque is one of the primary indicators of an engine, influencing car performance, including acceleration, climbing ability, and suspension. Below is an introduction to small car torque: 1. The precise definition of torque. The piston's reciprocating motion in the cylinder does a certain amount of work per cycle, with its international standard unit being the joule (J). The work done per unit distance is torque. Torque is an important standard for measuring the quality of a car engine, and the torque of a car is directly proportional to the engine's power. 2. The representation method of engine torque. It is expressed in newton-meters (N·m). Similar to power, the maximum output torque of an engine is usually indicated along with the corresponding rotational speed in revolutions per minute (r/min). The maximum torque typically occurs in the mid-to-low speed range of the engine and tends to decrease as the speed increases.

How to Open the Hood of a Volkswagen Bora?

To open the hood of a Volkswagen Bora, follow these steps: 1. Pull the hood release lever inside the cabin; you will hear a "click" sound. 2. Lift the hood (at this point, there is still a hook, so the hood can only be lifted slightly). Reach in with your hand to release the hook, and the hood will open. Below are the functions of the Bora's hood: (1) The hood is the front cover of the car. Beneath it are critical components of the vehicle, including the engine, electrical circuits, fuel system, braking system, and transmission system, all of which are vital to the vehicle. (2) By enhancing the strength and structure of the hood, it can effectively prevent adverse effects such as impacts, corrosion, rain, and electrical interference, ensuring the vehicle operates normally. (3) The hood not only provides protection but also enhances aesthetics. The exterior design of a vehicle is a direct reflection of its value. As a key part of the overall appearance, the hood plays a crucial role in visual appeal, embodying the concept of the entire car. (4) It aids in driving visibility. During driving, the reflection of natural light and the view ahead are essential for the driver to accurately judge road conditions. The shape of the hood can effectively adjust the direction and form of reflected light, reducing its impact on the driver.

What is the fuel tank capacity of the Lynk & Co 05?

The fuel tank capacity of the Lynk & Co 05 is 50 liters, as officially announced. Owners who have purchased the Lynk & Co 05 can also check this information on the vehicle's configuration sheet. The recommended fuel grade for the Lynk & Co 05 is 95 octane, with a fuel consumption of 7.8L per 100 kilometers. A full tank can cover a distance of approximately 641 kilometers. During daily driving, it is essential to monitor the remaining fuel level in the tank. This is typically observed through the fuel gauge inside the vehicle. Under normal circumstances, the fuel level will be accurately reflected on the gauge. The fuel gauge usually has 5 to 6 segments, and it is advisable to refuel when only 2 segments remain to avoid running out of fuel midway. During actual refueling, the amount of fuel added may exceed the calibrated capacity. This is because the manufacturer's specified tank capacity is measured from the bottom of the tank to the safe fill level, leaving some space between the safe fill level and the tank opening. This space ensures that the fuel can expand when temperatures rise without overflowing. If fuel is filled up to the tank opening during refueling, the actual amount of fuel added may exceed the calibrated tank capacity.

Which country does Mini belong to?

Mini is now owned by the German BMW Group. Here is some relevant information about Mini: 1. The original Mini was born in the UK, representing a symbol of social and historical changes in the 1960s. It was compact, fun, and inspired vitality and freedom, becoming one of the iconic symbols of 1960s Britain. In 1994, the German BMW Group took over from its original manufacturer, Rover, and dedicated itself to improving the Mini. 2. The name 'Mini' has even become a term in people's daily lives, synonymous with 'micro' and 'pocket-sized.' The Chinese transliteration 'Mí nǐ' is used on many products, such as miniskirts and mini sound systems, but many people are unaware that 'Mí nǐ' originates from the name of a car. It is also the only car name in the world that has been adopted as a common noun. 3. The birth of the new MINI represents high technological content, advanced production techniques, distinctive product features, and a strong brand image. Although the new generation MINI comes in three versions, they all share the same engine specifications: a 1.6-liter 4-cylinder. With the entry of the MINI COOPER into the Chinese market, we now have the opportunity to experience this classic compact car with a 40-year legendary history and global acclaim in the automotive world.
