Tiguan L's windshield wiper moves once when the engine is turned off because the wiper stroke is designed with a reserved position. When hydraulic pressure, air pressure, or electrical power is lost, the wiper returns to its origin. Additionally, this design prevents the wiper from freezing to the windshield in winter and melting the wiper rubber strip due to high temperatures on the glass in summer. More information about the Tiguan L is as follows: 1. Introduction: The Tiguan L is the extended and upgraded version of the Tiguan, built on a new platform. It abandons the rounded appearance of the Tiguan, featuring a more angular and robust body design, and is equipped with full LED front and rear light groups for superior illumination. 2. Safety Features: The new Tiguan L comes standard with ESP vehicle stability system and front side airbags. The top-tier flagship model includes a pre-collision safety protection system, knee airbags, lane-keeping system, 360-degree parking camera, and HUD head-up display system. 3. Powertrain: The new Tiguan L offers two powertrain options: 330TSI and 380TSI, equipped with the third-generation EA888 turbocharged engines in 1.8T and 2.0T displacements, respectively. The former delivers a maximum output of 180 horsepower and a peak torque of 300 N•m, while the latter offers 220 horsepower and 350 N•m of torque. Additionally, the 380TSI model features Volkswagen's 4MOTION all-wheel-drive system and includes a driving mode selection function.

What are the symptoms of insufficient fuel pressure?

The symptoms of insufficient fuel pressure include: insufficient driving power, lack of acceleration power, and engine stalling. Insufficient fuel pressure is mostly caused by a faulty fuel pump. When this occurs, the fuel pump needs to be replaced. To test whether the fuel pump pressure is sufficient: 1. Turn on the ignition switch without starting the engine, and you should hear the fuel pump working for 1 to 2 seconds; 2. Remove the fuel pump relay and use a dedicated jumper wire to connect the fuel pump circuit, then turn on the ignition switch; 3. Connect a fuel pressure gauge to see if the engine can establish a fuel pressure of around 250KPa, and whether the pressure builds up quickly. If the pressure can be established normally, the fuel pump is functioning. Then, turn off the engine ignition switch and observe whether the fuel pressure drops quickly, which helps determine if the fuel pump's pressure relief valve is working properly; 4. Connect the fuel pump circuit and use specialized measuring tools to check whether the fuel pump's output and return flow rates are normal.

How to engage the four-wheel drive in the Sorento?

Sorento features an automatic four-wheel-drive system that engages below 40 mph through computer control. When the forced drive button is pressed, power distribution is set at 50% to both front and rear axles. The system automatically disengages when speed exceeds 40 mph, so four-wheel drive activates automatically below this threshold. The Sorento is a vehicle produced by Kia. In terms of configuration, it comes equipped with a 7-inch multimedia LCD screen supporting touch operation for DVD and GPS navigation. Regarding dimensions, the Sorento measures 4567mm in length, 1863mm in width, 17330mm in height, with a wheelbase of 2815mm.

What are the Three Filters in Engine Oil?

The three filters in engine oil refer to the air filter, oil filter, and fuel filter, which are used to remove impurities and maintain cleanliness. Timely cleaning will help improve the working environment inside the vehicle's engine. Air Filter: Ensures the air entering the engine is clean. The air contains suspended dust, primarily composed of silicon dioxide, a substance harder than metal. Installing an air filter can reduce wear on components such as cylinders, pistons, and piston rings. Fuel Filter: Ensures clean fuel and prevents vapor lock. During fuel storage, transportation, and refueling, impurities and moisture inevitably mix into the fuel. These impurities, when carried into the fuel supply system and engine cylinders, accelerate cylinder wear. Oil Filter: Filters engine oil to ensure normal engine operation. Among the three filters, it is the most important for internal combustion engines. During operation, mechanical impurities such as dust, metal shavings, and carbon deposits continuously mix into the oil. Additionally, oxidation caused by air and combustion exhaust gases gradually forms sludge when combined with mechanical impurities. This not only accelerates wear on moving parts but also easily clogs oil passages.

How is the ETC in the car powered?

There are two power supply modes for the ETC in the car, one is using solar panel charging, and the other is using wired charging. Both types of ETC electronic tags have internal batteries. Solar-powered ETC devices do not require charging during daily driving, and the lithium battery can last for 3 years under normal use. However, for those who do not frequently use ETC, it is recommended to charge the ETC device every 3 months to effectively reduce the impact of natural discharge on the battery's lifespan. For solar-powered ETC devices, you can park the car under the sun for a few hours to charge the device. ETC is the abbreviation for Electronic-Toll-Collection, meaning electronic toll collection system. To apply for it, you need to provide the original and photocopies of the vehicle owner's valid ID card and driving license. If the application is not made by the owner, the agent's valid ID card must also be provided. The photocopy of the driving license should include the page with the most recent annual inspection stamp; a bank card for deducting highway tolls; the applicant must be between 18 and 60 years old; and the vehicle must be registered under the individual's name. How ETC works: Through the on-board electronic tag installed on the vehicle's windshield, it communicates with the microwave antenna in the ETC lane at the toll station and uses computer networking technology to settle accounts with the bank in the background, allowing the vehicle to pay highway or bridge tolls without stopping when passing through toll stations. Benefits of installing ETC: Time-saving: Eliminates the hassle of waiting in line; Green and environmentally friendly: Green and low-carbon, vehicles passing through toll stations without stopping can reduce noise and exhaust emissions and pollution; Cost-saving: Reduces costs, decreases the frequency of vehicle starts and stops, reduces wear and fuel consumption, and users can enjoy toll discounts; Improved efficiency: The efficiency of ETC lanes can theoretically be increased by 2-3 times or more, making traditional ETC updates faster and more high-tech. Compared to license plate payment, ETC technology is more mature and advantageous.

What does ABS on the car dashboard mean?

ABS on the car dashboard stands for Anti-lock Braking System. Its function is to automatically control the braking force of the brake system during vehicle braking, preventing the wheels from locking up and maintaining a rolling-sliding state to ensure maximum adhesion between the wheels and the road surface. When there is a system failure in the ABS, the ABS warning light on the dashboard will illuminate, the braking performance of the vehicle will deteriorate, and the braking distance will increase. It is advisable to inspect and repair the system as soon as possible. Common causes of ABS failure include: 1. Damaged or dirty wheel speed sensors, requiring cleaning or replacement; 2. Damaged or dirty signal wheels, requiring cleaning or bearing replacement; 3. Damaged ABS control unit, requiring replacement; 4. Poor connection or short circuit in ABS wiring, requiring repair or replacement of the wiring harness.
