Although pasat and polo are two completely different models, they are common to both german mass technology and, together with the technology of many medium- and high-grade cars that are listed in global synchronization, they have much in common in their use and maintenance. This issue of the automotive magazine invites mr. Shen guofa of the special services centre of pasat motor sales ltd., aec guangzhou, to discuss all aspects of the driving concerns of the shanghai volkswagen system (because of the low level of private vehicle holdings in santana, only pasat and polo are involved in this edition)。
The new car's grinding
For new vehicles, good grinding (cracking) helps to extend the useful life of the vehicle. Both pasat and polo had an initial grinding mileage of 1,500 km (with a reduction to 1,000 km for those with experience)。
The owner of the car should pay attention to the following aspects during the new rigging period:
1. The oil doors should not be fully opened and, in the light of experience, should be lowered as appropriate。
2. The speed limit is below 3/4 of the maximum speed. In the case of the polo model, the maximum speed of polo1-4 is 170 km/h, so that the speed of the grinding period should not exceed 130 km/h; the maximum speed of polo1-6 is 180 km/h, so that the speed of the grinding period should not exceed 135 km/h。
3. Limit the speed of motors to 4,000 volts in order to avoid high velocity。
4. Avoiding trailer work. When some owners encounter other broken cars, if the love car is still ripe, it is better not to help the trailer, or to find another way to hurt the love car。
When the mileage of a vehicle exceeds 1,500 kilometres, the owner may gradually increase the speed of the vehicle or pull it up to the limits of the vehicle limit, as in the case of pasat 1-8t, with a maximum speed of 6,500 turns。
Common failures and solutions
Heavy vehicle shaking
The vehicle's motors were severely shaking and the tail gas emissions exceeded the norm (no black smoke, but the smell was unusual), and this failure could have occurred on the pasat 1-8t model, for two main reasons。
Unqualified gasoline, poor-quality gasoline, which could not be fully burned, caused an explosion and, seriously, could lead to a storming tank, at which point the vehicle should be driven to the maintenance station as soon as possible, the gasoline released and the oil routes cleaned。
Some cylinders are not working well for the following reasons:
Oil-jet jamming; fire-ring damage; spark plug damage。
"drum bag" on the side
Pasat uses low pressure vacuums, and standard pressure is key to safe travel. When a normal vehicle is empty, for example, the first tire in pasat is 2-2bar and the second tire is 2 0bar. In the event of the discovery of a “drum bag” on the side of the fetus, it is generally necessary to replace it because of the thinness of the side, which can result in an explosion。
Tires sound
The tires in the vehicle were strung with sharp frictions, often only because of sandstones between brake plates and brake plates. In this case, if the owner moves behind and behind the vehicle, the gravel will be sharpened。
Air conditioning
The solution is simple: start the car, open all the windows, move the air conditioner to the hottest state, blow about half an hour with the maximum wind, and clear the smell。
The lights on one side of the engine are still on
All volkswagen vehicles are designed to have motorway parking lights, which are used as a sign of width when the highway stops. If the ignition switch has been turned off and the turn-on switch still goes to the left or the right, the light on the side should be on. If the lights are to be extinguished, the switch will be applied to the normal position in the middle。
The red light's on
Once the red warning light is on, the owner must stop and check. There are the following types of red lights in the volkswagen system
Abs alert
The lights indicate that the brakes have returned to normal, i. E., the death-proof function has lapsed, and in this case the owner should send the vehicle to a professional after-sales service station。
Handbrake light
That's a brake system alarm. The flashes were accompanied by warnings indicating that the brakes were not loose or that there was a lack of brake oil. The former would lead to reduced driving power and an abnormal wear and tear on brake plates and brake plates. If the brakes have been completely released, but the warning lights are still shining, it is certain that there is a lack of brake oil, which must be checked. The hood is opened and the brake canteen is checked for leaks. In the event of leaks, the vehicle can no longer be moved and is left to be handled by the maintenance staff; if there is no leak, it is only the brake oil that is slightly below the bottom line, the speed may be slow to move to the nearest maintenance station。
