The seat ventilation/heating switch button for the Touareg is located in the center of the center console. Press it to activate the ventilation mode, and you can also adjust the seat temperature. Here is an extended introduction: 1. Configuration: The new car is equipped with a multimedia information display that uses the App-Connect smartphone integration platform, supporting Apple CarPlay and Android Auto. The new car will also feature adaptive cruise control, lane keeping, blind spot monitoring, collision warning, heated steering wheel, front seat heating/ventilation, and a panoramic sunroof. 2. Introduction to seat ventilation: Seat ventilation works by adding fans to the back of the seat cushion and backrest foam. The fans draw in air and direct it to the ventilation layer, where the airflow then permeates upward through the heating pad to the surface of the seat cover (which is made of perforated leather). This allows passengers to use the ventilation function to dissipate sweat from their hips and back in hot weather, providing comfort.

I've been driving my Touareg for quite a while now, and the seat ventilation/heating function is one of my favorite features. The controls are located right on the driver's door panel in the seat adjustment button area, clearly marked: the left side shows the heating icon (looks like heat waves) and the right side has the ventilation icon (fan-shaped). While driving, I can easily reach and press the switches with just a finger stretch. In summer, pressing the ventilation instantly cools the seat for comfort, while in winter, the heating quickly warms my back when I'm in a hurry. The position is well-designed and doesn't interfere with other center console buttons, preventing distractions while driving. I've also noticed that if the car interior is too hot, turning on ventilation first to cool down before activating heating works better. However, if the buttons respond slowly or get clogged with dust, remember to clean them regularly. This feature also works seamlessly with the AC system, making it hassle-free overall and enhancing travel comfort.

Can I Add 95 Octane Gasoline After Using 92 Octane?

You can add 95 octane gasoline after using 92 octane, but it's not recommended to mix them for extended periods. The reasons are as follows: 1. Prolonged mixing of different octane ratings may affect the lifespan of your car's ignition system, fuel injectors, and spark plugs, potentially advancing the need for major repairs. It's advised to avoid mixing unless absolutely necessary. 2. Adding 95 octane to a car that normally uses 92 octane generally won't cause problems, but doing the reverse may lead to vehicle damage. Using lower octane gasoline than recommended may cause engine knocking, and in severe cases, could result in bent valves or damage to the valve cover.

What to Pay Attention to When Inspecting a New Car?

Precautions mainly include two parts: vehicle inspection and document verification. The details are as follows: 1. Check the exterior for any scratches or noticeable color differences on the paint. Inspect the working condition of various functional components inside the car, such as the audio system, air conditioning, and lights. 2. Check the tires for the presence of tread hairs. Verify that all vehicle documents are complete, including the purchase invoice, vehicle certificate of conformity, three-guarantee certificate, and user manual. 3. Inspect the paint surface, with particular attention to the uniformity and smoothness of panel gaps. It is best to compare two cars of the same model—the gaps between doors, bumpers, and the engine hood should be roughly the same. If the gaps are too large or differ significantly from other cars, there may be a possibility of post-manufacturing repairs.

Can an IV Drip Clean Carbon Deposits?

An IV drip can clean carbon deposits. More information about carbon deposits is as follows: 1. Carbon deposits are a manifestation of abnormal discharge processing in spark machines. From a general engine diagram, it can be clearly seen that the source of power—the air-fuel mixture—must pass through the intake valve to enter the combustion chamber; 2. A small portion of gasoline will adhere to the intake valve. When exposed to the high temperature of the engine, the hydrocarbons, paraffin, and colloids in the gasoline that cannot be completely burned will be turned into carbon deposits. If the fuel injector is fouled, the atomization state of the sprayed gasoline will be poor, leading to uneven mixing of gasoline and air, which increases the amount of gasoline that condenses on the intake valve.

When Does the Fan Behind the Car Radiator Start Running?

Currently, whether the fan operates is primarily determined by the coolant temperature. If the temperature is not high, the fan does not run upon startup. More details are as follows: 1. After idling the car, if the radiator fan does not spin even when revving the engine in neutral, this is normal. However, if the fan still does not operate after driving when the coolant temperature rises and the car is stationary, this indicates an issue, typically a faulty thermostat. 2. One type of radiator fan is directly driven by a pulley, meaning it runs whenever the engine is operating. The drawback of this design is that the fan operates even under low-temperature conditions, which hinders the engine from quickly reaching its optimal working temperature. 3. The mainstream design nowadays employs an electromagnetic fan, which only engages and starts running when the engine reaches a certain temperature. Therefore, the fan generally does not operate immediately after starting the car.

When to Use the M Gear?

The M gear can be used when going uphill or downhill, as well as when quick overtaking is needed. The M gear is a common feature in many cars equipped with automatic transmissions. It stands for manual mode, allowing the driver to manually control gear shifts up or down after engaging the M gear. Some sportier models even come with paddle shifters on the steering wheel. After switching to manual mode, the driver can directly use these paddles to shift up or down. Some automatic transmissions respond relatively slowly. If quick overtaking is required, pressing the accelerator pedal usually takes some time before the transmission downshifts. In such cases, switching to manual mode to downshift can help the car's power surge in a very short time. When descending long slopes, relying solely on the braking system can easily cause overheating and failure, which is very dangerous. In such situations, using manual mode to keep the transmission in a lower gear allows the car to utilize engine braking to slow down. In addition, automatic transmission cars also have other gear positions marked with letters like P, R, N, D, S, and L. Below is a detailed introduction: The P gear stands for Parking, the R gear for Reverse, the N gear for Neutral, the D gear for Drive, the S gear for Sport, the L gear for Low, and the M gear for Manual. Different gear combinations output varying levels of power. When the car is at different speeds, "shifting gears" means selecting different gear combinations to output power. P gear: Parking means "to park." It is used when parking the car. After reaching the destination or when needing to park for an extended period, shift the gear lever into this position. Note: The vehicle must be completely stopped before engaging the P gear. Engaging P gear before the car has fully stopped can damage parts of the automatic transmission. When in P gear, the wheels are mechanically locked, preventing the car from moving forward or backward. Therefore, always engage P gear when parking on a slope. Additionally, during short stops (e.g., at traffic lights), it's best not to use P gear to avoid severe transmission damage in case of a rear-end collision. R gear: Reverse means "to go backward" and is used when reversing the car. To reverse, press the safety button on the gear lever to engage R gear. However, ensure the car is completely stopped before shifting to avoid serious damage to the transmission. N gear: Neutral means "inactive" and is also called the neutral gear. It can be used when waiting at traffic lights while keeping the foot on the brake. If the wait is longer, it's advisable to engage the handbrake, allowing the foot to rest. A common misconception is that shifting to N gear while coasting downhill or at high speeds saves fuel. This is incorrect and can actually damage the transmission. D gear: Drive means "to move forward" and is the forward gear. Engaging this gear and pressing the accelerator allows the car to move. In this gear, the transmission automatically shifts based on speed and throttle input. At traffic lights, the car can remain in D gear with the foot on the brake. For short waits, this is fine, but prolonged use can raise transmission fluid temperature and degrade its quality. S gear: Sport means "sporty" and is the sport mode. Engaging this gear delays gear shifts to provide more power, typically used when overtaking. L gear: Low means "low speed" and is the low-speed forward gear. In this gear, the transmission operates only in low gear (equivalent to manual 1st gear) and does not shift automatically based on speed. This gear is generally used when climbing or descending steep slopes. In low gear, the drive wheels output higher torque, providing sufficient power to climb steep slopes. Prolonged braking can overheat the brake pads, reducing braking efficiency, which is dangerous on long or steep descents. Engaging L gear uses the engine's low RPM to control the car's speed, eliminating the need for constant braking.
