Yes, the insurance company will compensate for the claim. Below is the relevant introduction about auto insurance: Vehicle Purchase Tax: Vehicle purchase tax is a tax levied on units and individuals purchasing specified vehicles within the country, determined by the ex-factory price and displacement of the vehicle model. The latest vehicle purchase tax is 10%, with no room for negotiation. Motor Vehicle Insurance: Also known as auto insurance, it refers to a commercial insurance that covers liability for personal injury or property damage caused by natural disasters or accidents to motor vehicles. Compulsory Traffic Insurance: Compulsory traffic insurance is mandatory and must be purchased, with a nationally unified premium standard. However, the number of car seats will affect the amount of compulsory traffic insurance.

Last time my car light was broken, I specifically consulted the insurance company. They explained that such individual part damage is usually not covered unless it was caused by an accident. I remember the left headlight of my car was shattered when I was rear-ended, and the other party was fully responsible, so the insurance covered the replacement of a new assembly. But if it's a bulb aging or wiring issue, you basically have to pay out of pocket. I suggest you first check the insurance policy. The new regulation now is that the car damage insurance does not include separate coverage for light fixtures unless you purchase additional riders. However, if it's damaged by hail or water submersion, you might be eligible for a claim.

Should You Turn Off the Engine When Stuck in Traffic for One or Two Minutes?

You do not need to turn off the engine when stuck in traffic for one or two minutes. Here are the specific details: Exhaust fumes are produced in traffic jams: During traffic jams, some drivers habitually roll down the window on the driver's side. When the side window is open, exhaust fumes enter the car along with fresh air. If this persists for too long, the driver and passengers will be surrounded by "exhaust fumes," leading to dizziness, chest tightness, and other health hazards. Correct actions during traffic jams: Drivers should learn to follow vehicles skillfully. For example, during a traffic jam, drivers should maintain an appropriate distance of about two meters from the car in front and try to slightly offset to the left. This not only effectively prevents other vehicles from cutting in but also helps the driver observe the traffic conditions ahead, allowing timely responses.

How Long Does It Take to Check Traffic Violations from Other Provinces?

It generally takes 3 to 7 days to check traffic violations from other provinces, with the latest not exceeding 13 working days. Methods to check traffic violations: Call to check traffic violations. Many regional traffic police websites list a free traffic violation inquiry phone number that you can call to check the situation. Alternatively, you can directly visit the local urban traffic police brigade with your vehicle license and driver's license to inquire, which will list all violation items. You can choose to print them at any time before the vehicle inspection. Traffic violations: These are actions that violate traffic management regulations. Traffic violations may cause inconvenience to society, groups, enterprises, schools, and other organizations, and bring many uncertainties to social management.

What Causes the Wuling Hongguang S to Burn Engine Oil?

Wuling Hongguang S burning engine oil may be caused by reasons such as the selected engine oil having a low high-temperature viscosity value. Here are the detailed explanations: Methods to resolve excessive engine oil consumption: First, check whether there is any leakage on the engine's sealing surfaces. If conditions permit, it is also recommended to measure the cylinder pressure to see if there are any abnormalities. If there are no obvious abnormalities in cylinder pressure, try switching to an engine oil with a higher viscosity grade to see if there is any improvement. For example, if the original new car recommended using 5W-30 engine oil, switch to 5W-40 engine oil, ensuring the quality grade is not lower than the original requirements. Selecting the appropriate engine oil: Choosing engine oil should be based on the engine's requirements for the appropriate quality grade, combined with the driving environment and the vehicle's condition. Older models can appropriately use engine oil with a higher viscosity grade.

Why Can't You Reduce Points Through Learning Traffic Laws?

Reasons for not being able to reduce points through learning traffic laws are as follows: Points reduction limit reached or full-point records: Having more than two full-point records in the current scoring cycle, accumulated points reaching twelve, having already reduced points by the maximum of 6 points; having more than two full-point records in the previous scoring cycle. Penalties received during the scoring cycle: Within the last three scoring cycles, having been penalized for hit-and-run accidents, drunk driving, using forged or altered vehicle license plates, driving licenses, school bus permits, or other vehicle documents, or engaging in point trading. During probation period or unresolved violations: Driver's license is in the probation period, or the license status shows overdue inspection, detention, suspension, or unresolved violations.

What is the manufacturer's response to various abnormal noises in the Hongqi HS5?

Hongqi HS5 manufacturer's response to various abnormal noises is as follows: Body noise: This issue is caused by insufficient body stiffness, which leads to deformation during driving, resulting in friction or vibration between doors and door frames, or friction between steel plates due to poor welding. The noise can be reduced or eliminated by applying adhesive tape on windows/doors or padding rubber at friction points, but these are temporary solutions. Engine compartment noise: Abnormal noises are more likely to occur here. A high-pitched belt squeal is usually caused by belt slippage. If there's a dry metal friction sound during engine operation, it generally indicates damage to the generator, water pump, or power steering pump bearings. A hissing sound during engine operation may suggest exhaust system blockage, vacuum tube leakage, or rupture. It should be noted that if the noise comes from inside the engine, most car owners cannot resolve it themselves and should seek factory maintenance.

What kind of engine oil is suitable for Vios?

Vios can use engine oil with a viscosity of 5W-30. Mainstream engine oil brands include: Mobil, Castrol, Shell, and Dusso Lubricants. Engine oil plays roles such as lubricating and reducing wear, assisting in cooling, sealing to prevent leaks, preventing rust and corrosion, and damping vibrations, and is known as the "blood" of a car. Below is relevant information: 1. Engine oil consists of two parts: base oil and additives. The base oil is the main component of lubricating oil, determining its basic properties, while additives can compensate for and improve the shortcomings of the base oil, imparting certain new properties, making them an important part of lubricating oil. 2. The winter oil grades in the SAE lubricating oil viscosity classification are: 0W, 5W, 10W, 15W, 20W, 25W. The symbol W stands for winter, and the smaller the number before W, the lower the low-temperature viscosity, the better the low-temperature fluidity, and the lower the applicable minimum temperature. 3. The summer oil grades in the SAE lubricating oil viscosity classification are: 20, 30, 40, 50. The larger the number, the higher the viscosity and the higher the applicable maximum temperature. 4. The all-season oil grades in the SAE lubricating oil viscosity classification are: 5W-20, 5W-30, 5W-40, 5W-50, 10W-20, 10W-30, 10W-40, 10W-50, 15W-20, 15W-30, 15W-40, 15W-50, 20W-20, 20W-30, 20W-40, 20W-50. The smaller the number representing the winter part (the lower the applicable minimum temperature), and the larger the number representing the summer part (the higher the applicable maximum temperature), the wider the applicable temperature range.
