14th-generation Sylphy has lights on during the day because it is equipped with daytime running lights (DRLs). Here are the details about DRLs: Energy-saving effect of DRLs: Daytime running lights are primarily designed for daytime driving illumination. Unlike regular low-beam headlights, they consume only 15% of the energy of conventional low beams. For DRLs using LED technology, the energy-saving effect is even more significant, with energy consumption as low as 10% of that of standard low-beam headlights. Operation of DRLs: When the engine is started, the daytime running lights automatically turn on and gradually increase in brightness to attract the attention of other motorists, cyclists, and pedestrians on the road. When night falls and the driver manually switches on the low-beam headlights, the daytime running lights automatically turn off.

Where is the fuse located in the Volkswagen Lavida?

The fuse box of the Volkswagen Lavida is located inside the instrument panel cover on the left side of the driver's seat. Here are the precautions for fuse replacement: 1. Turn off the ignition switch, headlights, and all electrical appliances. 2. Pry off the cover, and you will find a card and a fuse clip behind it. 3. A white card is clipped on the back of the fuse box cover, indicating the positions of various fuses corresponding to electrical appliances. 4. The front side of the card corresponds to the upper part of the fuse socket, and the back side corresponds to the lower part of the fuse socket. 5. When replacing fuses, refer to the comparison table to determine the name and function of each fuse to avoid incorrect replacement.

Should the Throttle Body Be Cleaned?

Throttle body cleaning is necessary. Here are some key points about throttle body cleaning: 1. The throttle body is a controllable valve that regulates air intake into the engine. As air contains dust and sand particles, impurities accumulate on the throttle body surface during airflow. Combined with oil vapor from the crankcase, this forms a black carbon-oil deposit layer. 2. Excessive dirt buildup can cause throttle movement stiffness and allow contaminated air into the engine, affecting normal fuel combustion. The throttle body should be cleaned every 20,000 to 40,000 kilometers. In harsh driving conditions, more frequent cleaning is required. However, over-cleaning may lead to premature throttle failure as the special coating inside the throttle chamber gradually wears away, making it more prone to oil deposits and creating a vicious cycle that ultimately results in throttle body failure.

How to remotely control one-touch window operation in Volkswagen?

Volkswagen's remote one-touch window operation method is: 1. Open the window: Press the button downward to the first position and release when reaching the desired position. Pressing the button harder to the second position will cause the window glass to automatically lower completely; 2. Close the window (one-touch raise): Pull the button upward to the first position and release when reaching the desired position. Pulling the button harder to the second position will cause the window glass to automatically rise completely. Additionally, the window glass can also be controlled using the car key's lock and unlock buttons. Hold the lock button for more than 3 seconds to raise and close all windows; simply hold the unlock button on the key for about 3 seconds to simultaneously lower all four window glasses.

Is 15 liters per 100 kilometers considered high fuel consumption?

15 liters per 100 kilometers is considered high fuel consumption. Here are some fuel-saving tips for cars: 1. Ensure proper tire pressure. Both underinflation and overinflation can increase fuel consumption, so check tire pressure regularly. 2. Switch to fuel-efficient tires. For example, Pirelli's P6000 Powergy tires can reduce rolling resistance by about 15%, helping save approximately 3.75% on fuel. 3. Avoid arbitrarily changing tire size. Wider tires increase rolling resistance, leading to higher fuel consumption. 4. Regularly check wheel alignment. Over time, tires and steering may become misaligned, which also increases fuel consumption. 5. Use the lowest viscosity engine oil recommended. Lower viscosity oil reduces engine workload, resulting in better fuel efficiency.
