When driving my Audi Q5L in snowy conditions, I usually switch the driving mode to AUTO or All-Road mode. The system can automatically sense road conditions and adjust power distribution and brake control, especially improving traction stability on icy or snow-covered roads. Once on a snowy suburban road, after activating this mode, the car slid less, turned more smoothly, and the entire driving process was much more stable. When selecting a mode, prioritize safety-related factors such as avoiding skidding or loss of control risks, as friction is low in snowy conditions and requires optimized system response. It's recommended to test the mode switching before departure, which is a simple operation via the vehicle's knob or central control screen. When driving, pairing it with winter tires is best to enhance grip. The Audi Q5L's quattro system is very reliable in snowy weather, but it's still essential to maintain low speeds and drive cautiously. Regularly check tire pressure and brake conditions to ensure everything is normal, which helps prevent potential accidents and makes the journey more reassuring.

Safety First When Driving in Snow. When I drive my Audi Q5L, I always choose the OFFROAD all-road or dedicated snow mode. These modes enhance four-wheel drive output, limit engine power, and reduce the risk of slipping on slippery roads. The system optimizes braking and transmission operation to improve overall stability, making driving more reassuring. Audi's design for complex road conditions makes these modes highly effective, but snowy conditions bring multiple hazards, including reduced visibility and slippery roads. Even after activating the mode, it's essential to maintain moderate speed and a safe distance. During preparation, check vehicle systems like electronic stability control to ensure activation. Combining winter tires or snow chains is recommended for better performance. Regular maintenance of engine oil and filters ensures normal operation in low temperatures, helping to reduce accident risks and protect both yourself and others.

When driving my Audi Q5L in snowy conditions, I switch to AUTO mode or the all-road setting system, which automatically adapts to the road surface to enhance vehicle control. The operation is simple—just turn the mode dial. This is a great mode for slippery snow-covered roads, as it reduces skidding and helps stabilize the car. Combined with Audi's quattro all-wheel-drive design, the braking response becomes more sensitive and safer. While driving, it's important to be cautious, keep speeds low, and avoid sudden turns or hard braking. With the mode's assistance, the effect is ideal. Remember to check your tires—using winter tires is better—and maintain regular upkeep to keep everything running smoothly.

What is the grace period for overdue vehicle inspection in 2021?

Vehicle annual inspections must not exceed the month of the registration date, meaning the inspection must be completed within the month of the valid registration date specified on the vehicle license. For example, if the registration date is June 10th, the latest inspection must be completed by June 30th. If the inspection is done on July 1st, it will be considered overdue, resulting in a fine and a deduction of 3 points. According to Article 47, Paragraph 4 of the "Motor Vehicle Registration Regulations," if a vehicle fails to undergo a safety technical inspection within the specified period, the public security traffic management department will issue a warning or impose a fine of up to 200 yuan. The inspection can only be conducted after the fine is paid. In other words, there is no grace period for overdue inspections—whether it's one month or one day past the deadline, it is considered a violation. The new regulations for vehicle inspection in 2021 are as follows: 1. Small and micro non-operational passenger vehicles (with fewer than 7 seats) enjoy a 6-year exemption from inspection. Starting from November 20, 2020, non-operational small and micro passenger vehicles with 7-9 seats (excluding minivans) are included in the exemption. For vehicles older than 6 years but less than 10 years, only two on-site inspections are required, at the 6th and 8th years. For vehicles older than 10 years, an annual inspection is required; for those older than 15 years, inspections are required every six months. 2. Operational passenger vehicles must be inspected annually within the first 5 years; after 5 years, inspections are required every 6 months. 3. Trucks and large and medium-sized non-operational passenger vehicles must be inspected annually within the first 10 years; after 10 years, inspections are required every 6 months. 4. Motorcycles must be inspected every 2 years within the first 4 years; after 4 years, an annual inspection is required.

Why is a car considered totaled after being submerged in water?

Cars are considered totaled after being submerged in water for the following reasons: 1. Damage caused: It may lead to engine failure, electrical short circuits, damage to the driving system, and other impacts. 2. Effects: Vehicles submerged in water due to various reasons are affected by the water level and duration of submersion in terms of the extent of damage. Components prone to damage include circuits, electrical devices, precision instruments, thermal and sound insulation materials, and oils. High-value repairs involve the engine, transmission, computer system, audio and electrical equipment, wiring, airbags, steering system, etc. 3. Resale value: Moreover, it affects the car's future resale value. Generally, a water-damaged car sold second-hand will be priced at half the value of a car that hasn't been submerged in water.
