Tiguan's coolant temperature sensor is located on the radiator in the engine compartment. The functions of the coolant temperature sensor are: 1. Converting coolant temperature into electrical signals and inputting them to the ECU; 2. Adjusting fuel injection volume by increasing injection during low temperatures. Taking the 2017 Tiguan as an example, it is a compact SUV with body dimensions of: length 4506mm, width 1809mm, height 1685mm, wheelbase 2684mm, and curb weight of 1600kg.

How to Deal with Foggy Car Windows on Rainy Autumn Days?

Turn on the heater, and the fog will clear up quickly. Nowadays, some cars come with a one-touch defogging feature, which also utilizes this principle to achieve defogging. Sometimes, the fog on the windshield is caused by exhaled warm air. In this case, opening the window can help dissipate the warm air. The reason why fog forms on the windshield is entirely due to the temperature difference between the outside and inside of the windshield.

Is the Scratch Repair Miracle Tool Useful and How to Use It?

Apply a small amount of toothpaste to the scratched area. Toothpaste can only slightly reduce the mark but cannot fundamentally solve the scratch. Apply nail polish to the scratched area. This will create a transparent layer over the scratch, making it appear from a distance that there is no scratch on the car paint. Use a touch-up paint pen to fill in the scratch. This is the most effective method as the touch-up paint pen can cover some minor scratches.

What does installing ETC on highways mean?

Highway ETC (Electronic Toll Collection) translates to electronic toll collection, which is a non-stop toll collection system. Highways are equipped with one or more ETC lanes. ETC payment method: Through dedicated microwave short-range communication between the vehicle's RFID tag installed on the windshield and the microwave antenna on the ETC lane at the toll station, combined with networked banking technology for backend settlement processing, the system allows vehicles to pass through bridge and road toll stations without stopping to pay tolls. Banks issuing such ETC express cards typically charge after usage. ETC application requirements are as follows: Provide the vehicle owner's valid ID and original and photocopied vehicle registration certificate. The photocopy of the driver's license must include the page with the most recent annual inspection stamp. Fill out a bank debit card application form, which will be used to bind the ETC card. After receiving the card, you can go to a designated bank branch to install the ETC onboard device for free, with no additional charges. Applicants must be between 18 and 60 years old and own the vehicle in their name. For company vehicles, the required documents are: An introduction letter from the vehicle owner (with official seal); photocopy of the organization code certificate or business license (with official seal); original ID of the agent; original vehicle registration certificate; and the vehicle requiring ETC installation. Here are some precautions for installing ETC: Do not obstruct the driver's view; it's best to install it behind the rearview mirror. Many car models have steeply angled windshields, which can reduce the driver's field of vision. Installing ETC without considering this may increase blind spots. Install it behind the rearview mirror on the right side to avoid blocking the view. Do not interfere with charging: The ETC electronic tag consumes power but generally does not require charging or battery replacement, as it has a solar panel on the back for self-charging. Therefore, avoid installing it on the blacked-out areas of the windshield or where the solar panel might be obstructed. Once installed, do not remove it arbitrarily: The button in the middle of the adhesive is an anti-tamper lever connected to a switch. After installation, the windshield presses the lever in. If removed, the lever will pop out, triggering the switch and locking the electronic tag, rendering it unusable. You would then need to visit an ETC service point to unlock it. This mechanism prevents multiple vehicles from sharing one device.
