We all know that it is important to check our tire pressure for safety, it is probably the single most important thing you can do besides clean your windshield and making sure your breaks work. The other day I met a man in the Toy R Us parking lot with an electric car and I noticed his tires were low and mentioned it. I brushed the comment off and said it didn't matter, this is an electric car. Boy, is he wrong and let me tell you why.

The batteries in electric cars means that the cars weigh even more than regular cars, and therefore the tires have to be stronger to support the extra weight, and so, they must be properly inflated to protect against the added risk of blowouts.

Additionally, it takes energy to make the car go forward and just like it takes more fuel for a car to go forward in a regular car the same holds true for the energy it takes for an electric car to move forward. Just because the car is electric powered does not mean he should not conserve energy. This is a car, not a toy and it must respect the laws of physics.

In fact, it is even more critical for electric cars to have proper tire pressure than regular cars. Let's say that in a regular car, you can get between two and 3 miles per gallon better mileage, when the tires are properly inflated. Obviously, with the price if you let $3.50 per gallon, you want to do everything you can to conserve fuel. If you have an electric car, you want the car to go more miles between charging it up. If you properly inflated tires, you will be able to do this.

Volkswagen Sold 41,000 Tsi Engine Equipped Golf, Jetta and Touran

The TSI engines with twin charging are renowned for providing maximum power at minimum fuel consumption. Three famous Volkswagen models make use of TSI engines namely: Golfs, Jettas, and Tourans. At present almost 41,000 Glofs, Jettas and Tourans have been delivered with TSI engines.

There are currently two versions of this engine---equipped with both supercharger and a turbocharger. These two TSI engine versions develop 103 kW (140 PS or 138 bhp) and 125 KW (170 PS or 168 bhp) respectively.

The surprising thing about the Jetta, Golf and Touran TSI with 140 PS is that the fuel economy and CO2 emissions that they produce are comparable only to those of 80 PS versions—not leaving the fact that the Jetta, Golf and Touran offer better driving performance.

The Golf Estate is the newest model equipped with the TSI engine and it will be launch in Germany this coming June. Initially the Golf Estate will be powered by a 140 TSI engine which will be upgraded after to 170 PS TSI.

The other Volkswagen models that have the TSI engines include Golf, Golf Plus, CrossGOlf, Jetta, and Touran. And by the end of this year, the new Tiguan will also have a version of the TSI engine. Europe’s largest automaker is also testing a natural gas powered TSI on a Passat which simply goes to show the great potential of this unique new economical and powerful engine generation.

The key element to the TSI engine is downsizing. The displacement of the engine is frozen or even reduced resulting from the clever charging system which guarantees clean thrusts and low cost. To illustrate, say a Touran with 140 PS TSI consumes only 7.4 liters of fuel per 100 kilometers which translate to about 38 mpg. This is also one of the reasons why almost ten percent of all the present generation Tourans are being ordered with TSI engines.

The TSI engines designed for the Touran is built in the German engine factory in Chemnitz and offered for about 1,600 euros less than the diesel engines of comparable power. For the Golf, the TSI offers a price advantage of up to 2,500 euros.

Last 2006 the new powertrain era of the TSI engine began and since then the TSI badge has developed into a synonym for torquey, economical VW engines same with the previous engines that comes before it namely the TDI, FSI and the TFSI.

The Golf GT was the first Volkswagen car equipped with the TSI. Similarly the Golf GTI was also given the TSI engine revving 170 PS output and 240 Newton meters of torque with an average fuel economy of 7.2 liters per 100 km. The sporty Golf need only 7.9 seconds to break the 100 kilometer per hour mark from a standing start. Its top speed is 220 kilometers per hour.

The six-speed manual gearbox is a standard in the Golf GT while the innovative dual clutch gearbox DSG is offered as an option for all other TSI models.

And lastly with the TSI engine, Volkswagen maker of quality VW Jetta parts has proven that economy, sovereignty, and sportiness are possible to combine in a vehicle. And VW has proven that when it launches its TSI engine equipped Golf, Golf Plus, CrossGOlf, Jetta, and Touran.

91 golf jetta alternator drawing 12v when key is off?

Alright I'm lost Not much of a wiring kind of guy.

The car runs fine and everything. BUt It will drain a battery in a few weeks.

I have also replaced the alternator, battery, and starter with new selinoid.

But when Ever I turn the car off and remove the key the alternator still draws 12 volts. I dont get it. I tried hooking it up to the other side of the solenoid. But it wont charge the battery that way.

So as of right now I have a wire going to the hot side of the battery to the starter solenoid, then from the same post to the alternator.

Please someone help me. Ive removed the power for the ignition switch. still same problem

The alternator does not draw electricity. It generates it by converting mechanical energy, the spinning from the engine to electricity.

The alternator is like a backwards motor, the operate in reverse.

Since you replaced the alternator it is not the problem.

Voltmeter reads differences in voltage. Your reading 12 volts at the selenoid since it has 12 v from the baterry. The other side has nothing, so there is 12 volts difference that your reading.

Your car has either a short or a device light a tail light drawing
enough to eventually drain the battery.
