The air conditioning filter element of the Tiguan is located under the glove compartment on the passenger side. It can be seen by simply removing the glove compartment. The functions of the air conditioning filter element include: 1. Ensuring the air filter fits tightly against the housing to prevent unfiltered air from entering the cabin; 2. Separating solid impurities such as dust, pollen, and grinding particles from the air; 3. Absorbing coal smoke, ozone, odors, and carbon oxides in the air. The Tiguan has dimensions of 4506mm in length, 1809mm in width, and 1685mm in height, with a wheelbase of 2684mm. In terms of safety features, the vehicle comes standard with ESP body stability system, EBD electronic brake force distribution, and ASR traction control, among others.

What is ROEWE?

ROEWE is a car brand under SAIC Motor Corporation Limited, launched in October 2006. The name ROEWE signifies "Innovative Glory and Prestige Worldwide." Currently, ROEWE offers 7 sedan models and 6 SUV models in its lineup. Below is an introduction to the ROEWE RX5: 1. Exterior: The Zhilianwang Titanium Edition features minor adjustments in details such as the headlight assembly and wheel design compared to the standard model, while maintaining the overall elegant and sophisticated design. 2. Interior: The new model retains the same style as the current version and is equipped with the Internet Car Intelligent System 2.0—the AliOS-based Banma Zhixing solution, enabling dual-zone intelligent voice control for both driver and front passenger, as well as IoT-based remote vehicle control via smartphone. The Titanium Edition emphasizes safety and internet connectivity, featuring the ADAS intelligent active safety assistance system, which includes LDW (Lane Departure Warning), FCW (Forward Collision Warning), and AEB (Automatic Emergency Braking) for active braking assistance. Additionally, the vehicle comes with a 360-degree panoramic camera, side airbags, front parking sensors, and an electric tailgate. The central control screen supports voice wake-up, AI voice control, dual-zone voice commands, lane-level navigation, high-speed Wi-Fi connectivity, and lifetime OTA free upgrades. 3. Powertrain: The new model is powered by a 1.5T engine with a maximum output of 124 kW (169 PS) and peak torque of 250 N·m, achieving a 0-100 km/h acceleration time of 9.12 seconds. It is paired with either a 6-speed manual transmission or a 7-speed dual-clutch transmission, with a combined fuel consumption as low as 6.8 L/100 km.

Is It Dangerous If Something Falls Into the Handbrake Gap?

Generally, it is not very dangerous if something falls into the handbrake gap, as the car is also equipped with a foot brake in addition to the handbrake, preventing brake failure. Below are the potential impacts of foreign objects falling into the handbrake gap: 1. Causing abnormal noise: The most common effect of foreign objects falling into the handbrake gap is that they may cause abnormal noise. To avoid affecting the use of the handbrake, it is recommended to have it repaired and the foreign object removed. 2. Leading to handbrake failure: The handbrake operates on the principle of leverage, using a steel cable to activate the rear wheel brake mechanism. The key components are the locking tooth and gear, which automatically engage with each other. If the foreign object falls into a position that interferes with the engagement of these internal components, it could severely lead to handbrake failure. Therefore, it is necessary to remove the foreign object as soon as possible.

What does a severe powertrain malfunction mean?

Severe powertrain malfunction refers to serious failures occurring in the entire mechanical arrangement process where the power generated by the engine is transmitted through a series of power transfers and finally to the wheels. The following are the reasons for severe powertrain malfunctions: 1. Incorrect ignition timing or premature ignition: Causes premature combustion and detonation of the combustible mixture; due to ignition system failures, resulting in spark plug misfires or weak sparks. 2. Cylinder compression pressure: Severe wear of pistons, piston rings, and cylinders increases the clearance between them, reducing sealing performance, leading to cylinder head leakage and decreased cylinder compression pressure; poor sealing of the crankcase reduces suction due to air leakage. 3. Clogged filter: Check if the air filter is clogged and clean it if necessary. 4. Throttle opening issue: Check the throttle opening—when the accelerator pedal is fully depressed, the throttle should be fully open; otherwise, relevant inspections and repairs should be performed.

Does Thinner Damage Car Paint?

Here are the specific impacts of using thinner to clean a car on the paint: 1. Paint Dissolution: Using thinner to remove asphalt will also dissolve the car paint. Even if you rinse it with water immediately, some of the original paint will still be dissolved. 2. Rust: Over time, the areas cleaned with thinner will show differences in paint compared to other parts, and rust may even appear. Below is additional information about thinner: 1. First characteristic of thinner: It is highly volatile and can evaporate quickly, with vapors spreading several meters or even tens of meters away in a short time. When these vapors encounter an open flame, they can ignite, and the flame can travel back along the airflow, causing intense combustion. When the concentration of thinner vapors in the air reaches a certain ratio, a strong explosion can occur, leading to significant economic losses and casualties. Therefore, it is essential to ensure good ventilation in the operating area and strictly prohibit the use of open flames. 2. Second characteristic of thinner: It has good insulation properties and easily generates static electricity. When a plastic container filled with thinner is shaken repeatedly, the static charge can reach tens of thousands of volts, which can easily cause a fire.

Does Chrome Plating on Cars Prevent Rust?

Chrome plating on cars generally provides rust resistance, but the electroplating process cannot guarantee the absence of microscopic pores. Therefore, even with chrome plating, rust can still develop over time. Here is some relevant information about automotive chrome plating: 1. Reasons for chrome plating on cars: Chromium has highly stable chemical properties. At room temperature, it does not rust when exposed to air or immersed in water. 2. Defects of automotive chrome plating: While the chrome plating layer itself is corrosion-resistant, the electroplating process cannot ensure complete pore-free coverage. When yellow rust spots appear, it indicates that pinholes have formed in the plating layer, which can no longer fully protect the underlying metal. The base material will continue to oxidize, eventually causing the surface plating to separate and leading to rust formation.

What Causes High Engine Coolant Temperature in Traffic Jams?

High engine coolant temperature during traffic jams occurs because the radiator and cooling fan cannot operate at full capacity when the vehicle is idling, preventing heat from being dissipated effectively through the radiator and cooling fan. When the engine runs at full load, it also drives the cooling system to work at full capacity, so the temperature drops while driving, which is a normal phenomenon. Below is relevant information about engine coolant temperature: 1. Normal conditions: Generally, the normal operating temperature for most passenger cars is between 80°C and 105°C (when antifreeze is added), but the typical coolant temperature usually stabilizes around 90°C. Most standard vehicles cannot sustain temperatures above 100°C for extended periods, with 105°C being the critical limit. 2. Solutions for high temperature: Try switching to a higher-concentration coolant, check for smooth coolant flow in the pipes, and inspect the thermostat and dashboard sensor.
