Volkswagen's windshield washer fluid is located on the right side of the engine compartment. Windshield washer fluid is a consumable item, so it should be checked regularly. There is usually a scale line inside the washer fluid reservoir to guide the filling process, so do not exceed this line when adding fluid. Generally, there is a windshield washer fluid level indicator light on the car's dashboard. If the washer fluid is running low while driving, this light will start flashing to alert the driver that it's time to refill. Volkswagen is a German automobile manufacturer headquartered in Wolfsburg, Germany, and is the core company of the Volkswagen Group, one of the world's leading car manufacturers. Volkswagen's main models include sports cars, compact family cars, the EOS coupe, Volkswagen CC, Volkswagen Phaeton, Volkswagen Audi, and others.

As a long-time Volkswagen owner, I must say the location for adding windshield washer fluid is quite easy to find. After opening the hood, there's a blue cap in the engine compartment, usually positioned on either the left or right side near the windshield, possibly marked with a small wiper icon. I check it every year before the rainy season to ensure there's enough fluid. Just use the dedicated wiper fluid available at supermarkets - never use tap water as it may freeze and cause problems in winter. After unscrewing the cap, pour slowly until the fluid level approaches the full mark to avoid overflow and engine contamination. Always keep your front windshield clean when parked, as insufficient washer fluid can compromise visibility safety. It's especially important to ensure adequate supply before long-distance driving. This simple habit has helped me avoid many unexpected situations and makes driving more reassuring.

What does engine traction mean?

Engine traction refers to the force generated by the engine through the transmission system applying torque to the wheels, which then interacts with the ground through the driving wheels. The direction of this force is the same as the direction of the vehicle's movement. Definition of engine: The car engine is the device that provides power to the vehicle, serving as the heart of the car. It determines the vehicle's power, fuel efficiency, stability, and environmental performance. Depending on the power source, car engines can be classified into diesel engines, gasoline engines, electric motors for electric vehicles, and hybrid systems, among others. Precautions for engine maintenance: Regularly maintain the engine by servicing it according to the recommended schedule and mileage, and use the appropriate engine oil. Keep the coolant clean to ensure good heat dissipation for the engine. Periodically clean the engine's fuel and air intake systems to ensure smooth fuel and air intake channels.

How to Drive a Dual-Clutch Transmission?

Steps for operating a dual-clutch transmission: When starting, make sure to press the brake, shift into N (Neutral) gear to start the engine. After the engine starts, shift into D (Drive) gear, release the brake, and press the accelerator to smoothly start the vehicle. When parking, first press the brake, wait until the car comes to a complete stop, then shift into N gear, and finally turn off the engine and shift into P (Park) gear to park. When waiting at a red light, press the brake and shift into N gear, but remember to release the handbrake when starting. For overtaking, shift from D gear to S (Sport) gear for quick acceleration. For reversing, shift into R (Reverse) gear; other operations are the same as with an automatic transmission car. A dual-clutch transmission is a type of automatic transmission but differs from conventional transmissions. Like other automatic transmission models, dual-clutch automatic cars have four basic gears: P (Park), R (Reverse), N (Neutral), and D (Drive).

How to Deal with Oil Leakage in Vios Shock Absorbers?

Vios shock absorber oil leakage treatment method: Replace the shock absorber. The shock absorber is used to suppress the oscillation from the spring's rebound after absorbing shock and the impact from the road surface. It is widely used in automobiles to accelerate the attenuation of vibrations in the frame and body, thereby improving the vehicle's ride comfort. When driving on uneven roads, although the shock-absorbing spring can filter out road vibrations, the spring itself still undergoes reciprocating motion. The shock absorber is designed to suppress this spring bounce. The changes in shock absorber damping during driving are as follows: 1. During the compression stroke, the damping force of the shock absorber is relatively small to fully utilize the elasticity of the elastic element and cushion the impact, where the elastic element plays the main role; 2. During the suspension extension stroke, the shock absorber's damping force should be large to quickly absorb shocks; 3. When the relative speed between the axles is too high, the shock absorber should automatically increase the fluid flow to keep the damping force within a certain limit, avoiding excessive impact loads.
