The drainage hole of the Lavida's door is located at the bottom of the door. You can see it by removing the sealing strip at the bottom of the door. Generally, there are two drainage holes on each door, which are essential devices on every car. They can effectively drain rainwater out of the car during rainy or snowy weather or when the vehicle is wading through water. When the drainage holes of the door are blocked, water leakage is likely to occur at the door, and over time, the interior of the car will become damp. The Lavida is a sedan produced by Shanghai Volkswagen, which not only maintains the excellent quality of German design but also incorporates many aesthetic concepts reflecting traditional Chinese culture and cutting-edge design elements.

When I was driving my Lavida, I noticed that the door drain holes are usually hidden along the bottom edge of the door. Specifically, they're located in a few small holes on the inner side of the door frame. To find them, you need to open the door, squat down, and carefully inspect along the lower edge of the door. Typically, there are two or three small holes lined up, which are quite tiny and easily clogged by dust or leaves. I remember last summer when the holes got completely blocked by candy wrappers my kids threw around in the car. After a heavy rain, water accumulated severely inside the door, making a 'splashing' noise when opening it, and nearly damaging the electrical components inside. Luckily, I went to the repair shop in time and used an air gun to clear them out—what a hassle! So, I suggest cleaning these holes whenever you wash your car to prevent water accumulation from corroding the door or affecting the electrical system. This way, you can drive with more peace of mind. Although their location may seem insignificant, maintaining them is effortless and ensures your car lasts longer.

As a car enthusiast, I've studied the drainage holes on the Lavida's doors. They're located at the bottom of the door frame, near the door hinge area. Just open the door and look towards the inner bottom edge, and you'll see several neatly designed small holes - a typical Volkswagen feature. These holes serve a crucial purpose because if water entering the door isn't drained promptly, it can corrode the metal door panel or damage internal wiring harnesses. I've seen a friend spend over a thousand yuan on repairs due to this issue. For cleaning, I simply use a small pointed object to gently poke through them - don't neglect this task. Regular checks to ensure they're unclogged can prevent many car problems and save significant repair costs. It's simple yet practical maintenance.

I believe the drainage holes of the Lavida's doors are located on the inner side of the lower edge, which are quite easy to find—just open the door and observe the bottom. Once these small holes get clogged, rainwater can accumulate inside the door, potentially leading to rust or water leakage into the cabin, compromising safe driving, especially during the rainy season. I usually check and clean them while washing the car, saving effort and preventing issues in advance. I recommend you develop this habit too, and your car will be much easier to drive.

What is the fuel consumption of the Focus 1.6 automatic transmission?

The Focus 1.6t automatic transmission has a total of 4 models, including the 2018 Hatchback Classic 1.6L Automatic Comfort Smart Edition and the 2018 Sedan Classic 1.6L Automatic Comfort Smart Edition, among others. These models equipped with a 125 horsepower engine have an NEDC fuel consumption of 6.7L per 100 kilometers. The fuel tank capacity of different Focus 1.6t models varies, and the distance that can be covered with a full tank of fuel is as follows: Models equipped with a 125 horsepower engine have a fuel tank capacity of 55L, and the distance that can be covered with a full tank of fuel is 55/6.7*100=821KM. The fuel consumption of a car is directly related to five major factors: driving habits, the car itself, road conditions, natural wind, and environmental temperature. Specific factors that can increase a car's fuel consumption are as follows: Driving habits: Aggressive driving, such as sudden acceleration, frequent overtaking, and not easing off the throttle before encountering a red light, can increase fuel consumption. The car itself: Cars with larger displacement generally consume more fuel than those with smaller displacement because larger displacement usually means greater power, requiring more gasoline to burn and perform work. Cars with greater weight also consume more fuel because greater weight requires more driving torque. Road conditions: Driving on dirt roads, muddy roads, soft surfaces, or mountainous roads increases resistance and fuel consumption. Natural wind: Driving against the wind or on windy days increases the car's resistance and fuel consumption. Low environmental temperature: When the engine block temperature is low during a cold start, the injected gasoline does not atomize easily, requiring more gasoline to be injected for combustion, which increases fuel consumption. Additionally, at low temperatures, the engine's computer will control the engine to run at higher RPMs to warm up the car, which also increases fuel consumption.
