The Tiguan L 380 version is not equipped with a particulate filter. The particulate filter can reduce the particles in the engine exhaust emissions, recycle them, reduce vehicle exhaust emissions, increase the environmental friendliness of the vehicle, and reduce pollution to the atmosphere. To check whether a vehicle has a particulate filter, you can use the following three methods: Check the and to see if there is a particulate filter function. In addition, you can carefully check the fault codes in the manual to see if there is a "particulate filter" fault light indicator. Check the label above the oil filler cap. If the oil cap clearly states 0W-20 grade oil, it means that a particulate filter is installed. Check whether there is a cylindrical section on the exhaust pipe behind the three-way catalytic converter. If there is, that is the particulate filter. Location of the particulate filter: The particulate filter is located behind the three-way catalytic converter and in front of the muffler, surrounded by the front and rear oxygen sensors.

Reasons for Engine Stalling After Cold Start Shaking

Engine stalling after cold start shaking is caused by carbon buildup. Below is a detailed explanation of this issue: 1. The primary cause of engine stalling after cold start shaking is carbon deposits. Carbon buildup typically occurs in several areas: the inner walls of the throttle body, the intake valve heads, the inner walls of the intake manifold, the piston tops, and the inner walls of the combustion chamber. Excessive carbon deposits on the throttle body walls can restrict airflow, making starting difficult or causing the engine to stall easily at idle. 2. After the coolant reaches normal operating temperature, if the throttle opening exceeds normal idle values, the ECU will repeatedly adjust the throttle plate position, resulting in unstable idle speed fluctuations. The most prone area for carbon buildup isn't just the throttle body, but particularly the intake valve heads (at the end of the intake ports). 3. More seriously, if excessive carbon accumulates on intake valve heads, it can prevent proper valve sealing, making cold starts even more difficult. Even if the engine manages to start, it may stall quickly. Additionally, as engine temperature rises, the fuel absorbed in these carbon deposits evaporates and gets drawn into the cylinders for combustion. This uncontrolled fuel supply leads to an overly rich air-fuel mixture, further causing poor engine performance.

What is a Joint Venture Brand Car?

Joint venture brands mainly refer to brands and models developed by domestic automobile joint venture companies through purchasing and introducing foreign product technology platforms, with intellectual property rights belonging to the joint venture companies. Foreign partners provide technology, talent, brands, etc., for domestic assembly, but the core technology is still controlled by the foreign side. Below is an introduction to joint venture cars: FAW Group's joint venture brands: FAW-Volkswagen, FAW-Audi, FAW-Mazda (all produced in Changchun, Jilin), FAW-Toyota (produced in Changchun, Jilin; Tianjin; and Chengdu, Sichuan). Dongfeng Motor Group's joint venture brands: Dongfeng-Citroën, Dongfeng-Peugeot, Dongfeng-Honda (all produced in Wuhan, Hubei), Dongfeng-Nissan (produced in Guangzhou, Guangdong), Dongfeng-Yueda-Kia (produced in Yancheng, Jiangsu), Dongfeng-Fengxing (produced in Liuzhou, Guangxi), Dongfeng-Zhengzhou-Nissan (produced in Zhengzhou, Henan).

What is the normal speed of a motorcycle?

Different motorcycles have different speeds under different circumstances. The specific details are as follows: Measured on flat roads: 40-60 km/h is the economical speed for motorcycles. This speed is both safe and fuel-efficient, with minimal wear on the vehicle. Most motorcycles can reach 80-120 km/h. Racing motorcycles: Can reach a maximum speed of around 300 km/h. Oil change intervals: The break-in mileage for a new motorcycle is approximately 1,600 km. During the break-in period: 0-500 km: Speed should not exceed 45 km/h, and the first oil change should be done. 500-1,000 km: Speed should not exceed 55 km/h, and the second oil change should be done. 1,000-1,600 km: Speed should not exceed 80 km/h, and the third oil change should be done. After the break-in period, change the oil every 2,000-2,500 km. During normal operation, the speed should not exceed 90 km/h.

Do Imported Vehicles Come with a Certificate of Conformity?

Imported vehicles come with an engine certificate of conformity. The importance of the certificate and precautions when purchasing imported vehicles: Importance of the Certificate of Conformity: The certificate of conformity for imported vehicles, like standard certificates, includes a serial number and a barcode or QR code for scanning. The certificate is another crucial document for the vehicle and is essential for registration. Only vehicles with a certificate of conformity meet the national requirements for motor vehicle equipment quality and related standards. The numbers on the certificate must match the engine number and chassis number on the vehicle. Precautions When Purchasing Imported Vehicles: When purchasing, pay attention to the vehicle's source. Imported vehicles should be bought from domestic agents designated by the foreign car manufacturer. Carefully inspect all vehicle attachments and included tools to ensure they are complete. Check all parts of the vehicle for proper sealing and any signs of oil, gas, water, or electrical leaks. Also, pay special attention to the vehicle's mileage. Typically, a new vehicle should have less than 200 kilometers, and it should not exceed 1,000 kilometers at most.

What Emission Standard Does the Prado Meet?

The emission standard of the Prado is as follows: The Prado meets the China V emission standard. 1. The China V emission standard is the fifth stage national standard for motor vehicle pollutant emissions, also known as "China V Standard". 2. From China I to China V, each upgrade in the standard reduces vehicle pollution by 30%-50%. The China V Standard was implemented nationwide on January 1, 2017. Below is an introduction to vehicle exhaust emissions: 1. Vehicle emissions refer to harmful gases such as CO, hydrocarbons, nitrogen oxides (NOx), and PM (particulate matter) discharged from the exhaust. 2. These harmful gases are produced during the combustion process in the engine. The reasons for their production vary: CO is an intermediate product of incomplete fuel oxidation, occurring when oxygen is insufficient. High fuel mixture concentration and uneven mixture distribution can increase CO in the exhaust. 3. HC (hydrocarbons) are unburned substances from the fuel, caused by uneven mixture distribution or cold combustion chamber walls, leading to some fuel being emitted without complete combustion. 4. NOx is produced during the combustion process of fuel. PM is also a substance generated when fuel burns under oxygen-deficient conditions, most notably in diesel engines. This is because diesel engines use compression ignition, and diesel fuel is more prone to cracking under high temperature and pressure, producing visible carbon soot.
