The new car is running smoothly
    Passat's running can be divided into two stages, that is, 0-1000 km of the engine running and 1000-3000 km of the chassis running.
    Passat equipped with the engine, because the torque speed is very high, in the driving process when the speed reaches 3600-4000 turn when the shift is the best. The correct engine running method is, in the vehicle mileage of 0-1000 km process, the engine speed does not exceed 50% of the maximum speed, that is, the speed does not exceed 3000 rpm; the same time, the vehicle load does not exceed the maximum load of 50 %, That is, the front row to sit a driver and a passenger, sitting in the back, the weight of the contents of the trunk and the weight of three people integrated for the 210 kg. This run-in process, known as the adaptability of the engine running.
    After the engine runs, the chassis and the system should be followed. In the vehicle mileage of 1000-3000 km process, the speed can be pulled to the maximum, the vehicle's load can reach its maximum load of 75%. When driving as many times as possible to brake, so that friction plate and brake shoes running together. After a period of running, the chassis and the body of the bearing lubrication system work to achieve good results, brake system brake contact area greatly increased, the brake reliability is greatly improved, the braking system, steering system and tires With a better condition.
    After the end of the vehicle run, you can test the Passat. The test method is to pick a relatively straight road for a taxi. The specific approach is to speed to 50 km / h after the vehicle gear into the neutral, let it slide until the stop. If the taxiing distance of less than 600 meters, indicating that the car has not run well; taxiing distance greater than 600 meters, indicating that the car running off; if the taxi distance is greater than 630 meters, indicating that the car running very well Car will be "obedient", the power will be enough.
    Oil and more harmful no benefit
    To make your Passat always have good performance, reduce the chance of failure, regular maintenance of the car is particularly important.
    The first is the engine compartment cleaning. You can use the heated high-pressure water gun for cleaning, no heated high-pressure water gun, with ordinary high-pressure water gun cleaning can also be the key is to the engine compartment of the oil and mud stains and other garbage clean.
    Followed by routine maintenance. Passat's first-class maintenance projects include: replacement of oil, machine oil and chassis engines, such as more than 40 detection, the first maintenance time for every 7500 km once, two maintenance for every 20,000 km once. From March 1, 2003, Shanghai Volkswagen extended the quality guarantee period for all private cars, from the original one year to the current private car 2 years or 60,000 km.
    For routine maintenance, oil and spark plugs must be replaced in strict accordance with the instructions on the operating instructions. Shanghai Volkswagen asked the owner about 7500 km per car will have to replace the oil, but also for the replacement of what kind of oil is also strictly required, the general requirements of the oil to replace the minimum to meet the VW50101 standard or API-SH or SJ level above. When changing oil, be careful not to add oil to the scale of the oil gauge, but to the upper scale of 3/4. Because Passat is equipped with a three-way catalytic device to reduce the emissions of pollutants on the atmosphere, and the exhaust system is controlled by the computer chip. The oil is too much, will overflow into the combustion chamber of the engine, the oil through the combustion, the resulting waste material will cause the role of three-way catalytic device to reduce, seriously affecting the vehicle emissions and engine life.
