The Santana does not have a transmission oil dipstick. When adding oil, unscrew the transmission oil filler plug, then unscrew the transmission drain plug to completely drain the oil from the transmission. Tighten the transmission drain plug, pour the oil into the oil press, connect the oil press hose to the filler port, and finally pump the oil press to allow the oil to flow into the transmission until it reaches the level just below the filler port. The Santana is a brand of cars produced by Volkswagen in California, USA. Its models include the Santana 87, Santana 2000, New Santana, Santana 3000, and Santana Vista Zhijun.

What Should Be Noted for Cars in Winter?

Here are the precautions for cars in winter: 1. Heating system: Check for any abnormal noises from the fan operation and ensure the air ducts are unobstructed. Verify if the antifreeze in the heater hoses has been stagnant for a long time, potentially causing coagulation and blockage in the circulation lines. 2. Cooling system: If the engine cooling system contains ordinary water, it can easily freeze, making it difficult to start the car and potentially causing severe engine damage. 3. Warming up the car: After ignition, wait briefly in place. The waiting time depends on when the engine speed stabilizes after dropping. 4. Windshield washer system: In winter temperatures below zero degrees Celsius, replace the windshield washer fluid with antifreeze or add an appropriate proportion of alcohol to the washer fluid to lower the freezing point.
