Vento the name is not just juxtaposing of two common English words. In fact it is a genuine Italian word which means wind and a fair wind. The company with the launch of the Volkswagen Polo based saloon will hope that the winds change for the better of the newly launched Vento. The Vento has a lot of reputation at stake and has to be better than the Polo in every possible way if it has to make some mark in the market. Then there is the competition in the market from the likes of the Honda City as well the Vento has to face. The car is a midsized saloon which is built with the right proportions and the German understated style statement is powered by robust drivetrains. The Volkswagen Vento meant for the Indian terrain comes with a better ground clearance suited for the humpy and bumpy roads.
It does have a flipside with a meager 15-inch wheel for the high end variants which gives the car the feeling of having weak knees. The only solace is the slightly wider rear track compared to the Polo which gives way for a very spacious rear seat. The insides of the car are also heavily drawn from the controlled German with lot of under tones. The dashboard is a no nonsense and functional in its purpose with some useful controls to make the journey smooth. The quality of the interior is really appreciable and is the first thing that will take your breath away once you step inside the car. The car has also paid some attention to details like the seat adjustment feature for both the front and the rear occupants. The support is quite high and easily accommodates up to three people in the back without any congestion. The front seats are also equally well cushioned and have some solid studding. For the desi market, the car comes in two engine variants of 1.6-litre that delivers up to 105bhp in the petrol version and a 1.6-litre with 105bhp for the diesel. Both engines are equipped with a 5-speed manual along with the option of a six-speed auto gear transmission in the spark ignition engine. The auto does take you around but you might not quite feel the same adrenaline. The Petrol motor of the car peaks at torque of 15.8kgm at 3800rpm. This will surely require some gearlever work, especially when you want to overtake. The car is a cruiser type around the town and for cruising at triple digit speeds. But if your adrenaline kicks in then there is not much to fill that void.

Home ImprovementHaving an automatic garage door is very convenient. It makes your life easier than ever. Imagine, you don't have to get out of your car and open the door on your own. You just need to push that button to and your overhead door will open automatically. But unfortunately, your automatic door will run out as the years passes by. The up, down process wouldn't work the way used to be. Your old garage door will need a major repair. Home ImprovementGetting your basement waterproofing correct from the beginning is very important. Many bigger problems and damage can be caused if the process is not completed correct. Whether you’re undertaking wet basement repair or attempting to fix the waterproof foundation of your basement, there are many things you can do to protect your home.
Finely atomized by a screen, the urea is transformed in the hot exhaust gases upstream of the catalytic converter. In the SCR catalytic converter, it reacts with the nitrogen oxides and splits them into nitrogen and water. The aqueous AdBlue additive is nontoxic, odorless and biodegradable. On average, AdBlue consumption is about 1.0 liter per 620 miles (1,000 kilometers). Service garages can easily handle refilling of the very inexpensive AdBlue. As an alternative, the driver can refill small quantities of AdBlue solution underway without any great difficulties using a practical drip-free spare bottle. Beyond the SCR catalytic converter, Volkswagen engineers have come up with an entire bundle of innovative modifications. Combustion chamber sensors are being implemented for the first time, which monitor pressure conditions in the cylinders. Meanwhile, a new third generation common rail system with 2,000 bar injection pressure atomizes the fuel so that it is exceptionally fine. The targeted ideal combustion enhances quiet running and reduces raw emissions in general. Another technical highlight is the integrated intercooler for the turbocharger. A total of two intercoolers are used here.
When the engine is cold, an automatic bypass door isolates the coolers from the system to ensure that the V6 TDI reaches its ideal operating temperature even quicker and attains optimal efficiency. In general, however, reducing emissions, especially NOx raw emissions, takes the form of internal engine modifications such as lower maximum temperatures in the combustion chambers and reduced oxygen concentration by exhaust gas recirculation. The nitrogen oxides that are still produced despite these modifications reach the new SCR catalytic converter where they are removed, as already described. As engineers began to develop the V6 TDI, their first goal was to further optimize all aspects of combustion. The result is that a world’s first is celebrating its entry into high-volume production in the Clean Diesel: the combustion chamber sensor. Integrated in the glow pencil, the sensor continually measures pressure conditions in the cylinder and reports the data to engine management. This enables perfect control of injection and combustion for each cylinder; it is even possible to compensate for fluctuating fuel qualities. Ideal combustion helps to reduce raw emissions. It also optimizes quiet running and noise behavior. The common rail injection system that has undergone intensive advanced development serves the same purposes. With a new high pressure pump design (CP 4.2), the system builds up a pressure of 2,000 bar - this is new too. The piezo injectors also appear in a significantly modified form. Their smaller eight-hole nozzles inject fuel into the combustion chambers in miniscule volumes. This new design and its higher pressure make injection even more precise and dynamic - detailed work that in sum has produced one of the most fuel efficient and cleanest six-cylinder diesel engines in the world.
