How does an Audi A3 react on wet ground with ESP on and off?

Model: Audi A3 8V, MK 3 - Years 2012-2019
Part: Onboard computer

This video is truly explanatory of the effect that the ESP system (electronic stability control) has on the wheels of an Audi A3, on a heavily wet road. In the first test, we see the braking of the car, which is traveling at 50 km/h, with ESP activated: the car skids but the driver manages to keep it in a straight line with the help of the steering wheel. In the second test, the car has ESP deactivated, and travels at the same speed of 50 km/h; the car is completely uncontrollable, and spins around despite the driver trying to steer it back with the steering wheel. This shows us how important this system is for our car.

In this video, you will see where the fuel filter is located in a Volvo XC60 and how to proceed if you need to replace it. As shown, the filter is positioned at the lower part of the engine, right between the left half-shaft and the sway bar attachment. To replace the filter, first, go underneath the vehicle, taking all necessary safety precautions. Then, using an 18mm wrench, open the drain valve and allow any water present to escape. Next, unscrew the housing, remove the old filter, insert the replacement along with a new gasket, and reassemble everything.
