Jetta VS7's odometer is positioned directly in front of the driver's seat. Odometer: Modern compact car odometers consist of two roller counters driven by the same flexible shaft, recording trip distance and total mileage respectively. The trip distance typically displays four digits for short-term counting and can be reset; the total mileage shows six digits and cannot be reset. The separate display and reset function of trip distance proves particularly inconvenient for taxi fare calculations. Odometer working principle: The vehicle's engine transmits power to the gearbox, maintaining a constant drive ratio from the gearbox output shaft to the wheels. A "flexible shaft" is installed on the gearbox output shaft, extending to the odometer in front of the driver. This flexible shaft resembles a bicycle brake cable with a steel wire core inside a spiral tube, containing lubricant between the outer tube and inner core. While the outer tube remains fixed, the inner core rotates at a constant proportional speed to the wheels. This flexible shaft connects to the speedometer, enabling the needle to indicate the vehicle's traveling speed.

Why is the alarm still on after replacing the tire pressure sensor?

Power on the car but do not start the engine. Then simultaneously press the lock and unlock buttons on the remote control for 5 seconds, and release when you hear the car beep twice. Unscrew the valve cap on the tire and continuously deflate the tire, which may take 10 to 20 seconds. Keep deflating if you don't hear a beep. Once the car emits a short beep, the front left wheel is set. Then inflate the tire, and the tire pressure monitoring reset is complete.

What precautions should be taken when driving through waterlogged sections?

Before driving through water, observe the depth, direction, and speed of the water to determine if there are obstacles such as mud or quicksand beneath the surface. For hard-surfaced roads, engage a low gear and slowly enter the water. While driving, hold the steering wheel steady and maintain a consistent throttle to ensure the vehicle has sufficient and stable power.

Does the new Sagitar not have a manual transmission?

The new Sagitar does have a manual transmission. The 1.2T model of the new Sagitar comes with a manual transmission, while the 1.4T model does not. A manual transmission is a gear-shifting device used to alter the speed and torque transmitted from the engine to the drive wheels. The principle and advantages of a manual transmission are as follows: Principle of Manual Transmission: It uses a manual gear-shifting mechanical transmission (also known as manual transmission, MT) to regulate the vehicle's speed. This means the driver must manually shift the gear lever to change the gear engagement inside the transmission, altering the gear ratio to achieve speed adjustment. The gear lever can only be moved when the clutch is depressed. Advantages of Manual Transmission: Drivers can save fuel by selecting the appropriate gear. The commonly cited fuel efficiency of manual transmission cars is due to their higher transmission efficiency, which reduces power loss. Driving a manual transmission car requires higher skill levels, as proper and timely gear selection is necessary to achieve true fuel efficiency.

Is There Any Benefit to Cleaning Fuel Injectors?

Cleaning fuel injectors is beneficial. It can improve engine power, maintain smooth engine operation, and reduce exhaust emissions. Below are the recommended cleaning intervals and the benefits of cleaning fuel injectors: Cleaning Intervals for Fuel Injectors: The recommended cleaning interval for fuel injectors is every 2 years or 50,000 kilometers. Additionally, if the vehicle frequently operates on poor road conditions, the fuel injectors should be cleaned earlier (areas with low-quality fuel also require earlier cleaning). Benefits of Cleaning Fuel Injectors: Improves engine power and restores it to optimal condition, maintains smooth engine operation, reduces exhaust emissions. Fuel injectors are simple solenoid valves; when the solenoid coil is energized, it generates a magnetic force that lifts the needle valve, opening the injector nozzle. Fuel is sprayed at high speed through the annular gap between the needle valve tip and the injector nozzle, forming a fine mist that promotes complete combustion.

Why does the Buick Excelle alarm keep sounding?

The reasons why the Buick Excelle alarm keeps sounding include the alarm being overly sensitive, faulty door contact switches, etc. The details are as follows: Alarm being overly sensitive: The alarm is too sensitive, so even slight movements around the car can trigger continuous sounding. This can be adjusted. Faulty door contact switch: A faulty door contact switch can also cause the alarm to sound. It needs to be repaired at a service center. Excessively high sensitivity of the anti-theft sensor: The sensitivity of the anti-theft sensor is too high, but this can be adjusted. There is a sensitivity adjustment knob on the anti-theft vibration sensor, and slight adjustments can resolve the issue. Working principle of the alarm: When the sensor is struck or shaken, causing vibration, a small ball rolls inside the cylinder chamber. When it rolls away from a smaller secondary electrical contact element, the circuit formed by this secondary contact element and the central electrical contact element is broken. At this point, the switch opens, indicating to the controller that the ball has moved.
