The total fuel tank capacity is 62 liters, but the bottom of the tank must accommodate the fuel pump and filter, which occupy part of the tank's volume. Additionally, when the car production is completed, some fuel needs to be added to the tank for test driving and necessary movements. When the fuel gauge on the dashboard lights up red to remind the driver to refuel as soon as possible, there is approximately 10 liters of fuel left in the tank, which allows the car to travel about 100 kilometers. Below is relevant information: Purpose: The fuel tank capacity determines the driving range. For two cars with identical engines, the larger the fuel tank, the farther the car can travel. Generally, drivers know how much fuel their car's tank can hold from two aspects: one is the fuel tank capacity specified in the vehicle's user manual, and the other is actual refueling experience. Many drivers have noticed that the fuel tank capacity stated in the manual is smaller than the actual refueling amount. Refueling precautions: Use automotive gasoline; inappropriate fuel entering the fuel system may damage the fuel system and engine; do not use gasoline containing methanol or alcohol.

What is the normal tire pressure for the SAIC Volkswagen Lavida?

The normal tire pressure for the SAIC Volkswagen Lavida is around 2.3 to 2.5 bar. Owners can open the fuel filler cap, where the standard tire pressure for the Lavida is noted on the back. Although the Lavida is equipped with a tire pressure monitoring system, it differs from other models in that it does not display the tire pressure values of each tire in real-time on the instrument display. Instead, it only illuminates a tire pressure warning light when there is abnormal tire pressure or a system malfunction.

What is the VW 50200-50500 Standard?

50200/50500 engine oil is a certification standard for engine service oils by German Volkswagen, corresponding to the API-SN grade of engine oil. Only oils that meet this standard can be considered as original equipment manufacturer (OEM) oils by Volkswagen. Since VW50200 corresponds to the API-SN grade, when selecting engine oil, you can confidently use any oil that meets or exceeds the API-SN grade. Below is a detailed introduction to engine oil: 1. Engine oil, also known as engine lubricant (English name: Engine-oil), has a density of approximately 0.91×10(kg/m³). It serves to lubricate and reduce friction, assist in cooling, seal against leaks, prevent rust and corrosion, and act as a shock absorber in the engine. It is often referred to as the 'blood' of a car. 2. Engine oil consists of two main components: base oil and additives. The base oil is the primary component of lubricants, determining their basic properties, while additives compensate for and enhance the performance of the base oil, providing new characteristics. Additives are an essential part of lubricants. 3. The API grade is a quality standard for engine oils established by the American Petroleum Institute (API). 4. The 'S' designation indicates specifications for gasoline engines, while 'C' indicates specifications for diesel engines. 5. This grade is an environmental indicator and is not directly related to performance. Higher grades indicate better environmental performance and fewer harmful emissions. Currently, most new engine oils on the market are SN grade.
