This is due to a malfunction of the fuel level sensor inside the fuel tank, and the fuel level sensor needs to be inspected. Below is an introduction related to automotive fuel tanks: 1. Introduction: The full name of an automotive fuel tank is an automobile fuel tank. With the development of the automotive industry and the revitalization of the domestic automotive sector, the demand for automobile fuel tanks from major automotive manufacturers has shown a significant upward trend. 2. Classification: Automobile fuel tanks are categorized by material into iron fuel tanks and aluminum alloy fuel tanks. With the application and development of various new materials, the rust prevention issue of iron fuel tanks has become the biggest quality concern, especially in today's environmentally conscious era. Aluminum alloy fuel tanks not only meet the strength requirements but also have significant advantages in corrosion resistance compared to iron and new materials, making them the preferred choice for large buses and heavy trucks that consume large amounts of fuel and have high fuel quality requirements.

How Often Should the Spark Plugs on a Jetta Be Replaced?

Jetta spark plugs should be replaced every 60,000 to 80,000 kilometers. The replacement method is as follows: 1. Open the engine hood and unplug the high-voltage pack connector; 2. Use a socket wrench to remove the fixing bolts and take out the high-voltage pack; 3. Use a magnetic rod to extract the fixing bolts; 4. Use the magnetic rod to hold the spark plug and insert it into the hole, then secure the fixing bolts. Taking the 2020 Jetta 30th Anniversary Edition as an example, its body dimensions are: length 4419mm, width 1841mm, height 1616mm, wheelbase 2630mm, fuel tank capacity 51 liters, and trunk capacity 482 liters. The 2020 Jetta 30th Anniversary Edition features a MacPherson strut front suspension and a multi-link rear suspension. It is equipped with a 1.4T turbocharged engine, delivering a maximum horsepower of 150PS, maximum power of 110kW, and maximum torque of 250Nm.

What is the difference between 1.5t and 1.6t?

1.5t and 1.6t mainly differ in the following two aspects: 1. Different displacement: 1.5t refers to a 1.5L displacement, while 1.6t refers to a 1.6L displacement. Since the displacement of 1.5t is smaller than that of 1.6t, its fuel economy is also better than that of 1.6t. 2. Different engine power: The engine power of 1.6t is stronger than that of 1.5t. Turbocharging technology results in some differences in turbo pressure, leading to variations in engine strength, so 1.6t is stronger than 1.5t. Additional information: 1.5t and 1.6t refer to engines with 1.5 and 1.6-liter displacement equipped with an intake turbocharging device. The turbocharging device can change the engine's air intake, allowing fuel to burn more fully in the cylinders, thereby increasing the engine's output power. Generally, the higher the value, the stronger the power. Compared to engines of the same displacement, it has the advantages of higher output power, lower fuel consumption, and better environmental performance.

What to Do If You Drive Without a Vehicle License?

You can provide the traffic police with valid identity documents. If you lack identity documents or have not obtained a driver's license, it will be treated as driving without a license. Here are the methods for handling driving without a vehicle license: 1. Valid Identity Documents: Valid identity documents include ID cards, military officer certificates, passports, etc. These are official documents in China that contain a lot of personal information. If you can provide these documents, the traffic police can check through the online system whether you have obtained a driver's license. Generally, as long as you are not driving without a license, the traffic police will not deliberately make things difficult. After all, forgetting to bring a driver's license and not having one are two different things. 2. Take a Photo of Your Driver's License on Your Phone: This method is similar to the one above, as it also provides some valid identity information. When you really cannot produce a valid document, if you happen to have a photo of your driver's license on your phone, you can show it to the traffic police for verification. After all, this is not a time-consuming or laborious task. 3. Alipay Document Folder Feature: The Alipay mobile app has a document folder feature where you can input your ID card information or driver's license information. In fact, such electronic identity information is gradually being implemented in China. So, from another perspective, if you can provide such electronic driver's license information, it is also a good way to prove your identity. The specific method is to search for "document folder" in the Alipay mobile app, then enter the document folder page, where you can add information such as your ID card, vehicle license, and driver's license. After submitting and passing the review, it can be used as personal electronic identity information.

Where is the 4A15J1 engine produced?

4A15J1 engine is domestically produced, a self-developed engine by GAC Trumpchi. This engine is used in GAC Trumpchi models, such as the Trumpchi GM6, which is equipped with the 4A15J1 engine. It has a maximum power of 126kW, a maximum torque of 265 Nm, and a maximum horsepower of 171. For daily maintenance of the 4A15J1 engine, the following methods can be used: Use lubricating oil of appropriate quality grade. For gasoline engines, select SD--SF grade gasoline engine oil based on the additional devices of the intake and exhaust systems and usage conditions; for diesel engines, choose CB--CD grade diesel engine oil according to mechanical load, with the selection standard not lower than the manufacturer's requirements; Regularly change the oil and oil filter. The quality of any lubricating oil will change during use. After a certain mileage, performance deteriorates, leading to various engine problems. To avoid malfunctions, change the oil regularly based on usage conditions and maintain an appropriate oil level; When oil passes through the fine pores of the filter, solid particles and viscous substances in the oil accumulate in the filter. If the filter is clogged and oil cannot pass through the filter element, it may rupture the filter element or open the safety valve, allowing oil to bypass through the bypass valve and carry contaminants back to the lubrication area, accelerating engine wear and internal contamination; Regularly clean the crankcase. During engine operation, high-pressure unburned gases, acids, moisture, sulfur, and nitrogen oxides from the combustion chamber enter the crankcase through the gap between the piston rings and cylinder walls, mixing with metal particles from component wear to form sludge. Small amounts remain suspended in the oil, while larger amounts precipitate, clogging filters and oil passages, making engine lubrication difficult and causing wear; Regularly use radiator cleaner to clean the radiator. Removing rust and scale not only ensures normal engine operation but also extends the overall lifespan of the radiator and engine.
