You cannot get a temporary license plate for a new car on Saturday or Sunday. The vehicle management office is closed on weekends and statutory holidays, so you can only go through the registration procedures during normal working hours from Monday to Friday. According to Article 46 of the "Regulations on the Registration of Motor Vehicles": For ordinary consumers purchasing new cars that need to drive temporarily within the administrative jurisdiction, a temporary license plate with a validity period of no more than 15 days will be issued; if temporary driving across administrative jurisdictions is required, a temporary license plate with a validity period of no more than 30 days will be issued. If the owner of the motor vehicle needs to apply for a temporary license plate multiple times, the vehicle management office shall not issue temporary license plates more than three times. To apply for a temporary license plate, the applicant must hold the unit's letter of introduction, vehicle origin certificate, certificate of conformity, and other relevant certificates (except for the letter of introduction which will be archived, the rest will be returned to the applicant), and go to the vehicle management office for processing. When applying, the starting and ending points of the vehicle's driving route and the duration of using the temporary license plate should be specified. After the administrator reviews the documents and inspects the vehicle, a temporary license plate will be issued, with the validity period and starting/ending locations specified.

Why doesn't the windshield wiper spray water?

The reasons why the windshield wiper does not spray water are as follows: 1. Check if the windshield washer fluid is depleted or frozen in winter, preventing the pump from drawing it up. 2. Determine if there is any sound from the pump when activating the spray handle (switch). If not, the spray motor may be faulty or its fuse may have blown. 3. If there is sound from the washer fluid and pump, you can open the engine hood to check if the washer fluid supply hose is leaking. 4. Inspect if the spray nozzles near the wipers are clogged. If they are, clean them immediately. 5. Frequent activation of the washer fluid spray may overload and damage the pump, preventing it from working properly.

How to Determine if Brake Pads Need Replacement?

Here are the methods to determine whether the brake pads need replacement: 1. Check the thickness of the brake pads. The maximum wear limit for brake discs is 2mm, and it is necessary to replace the new brake disc after reaching the limit. However, in actual use, most car owners do not strictly follow this standard. If the replacement frequency of the brake pads is high, it is necessary to check the thickness of the brake discs more often, because the use of the brake pads and the wear of the brake discs are relative, so the brake discs should be checked regularly. 2. Listen for sounds. If there is a "metal-to-metal" squealing sound when lightly braking, the brake pads must be replaced immediately. This is because the wear indicators on both sides of the brake pads are already directly rubbing against the brake disc, indicating that the brake pads have exceeded their limit. In such cases, while replacing the brake pads, the brake discs should also be checked, as the discs may already be damaged. At this point, even replacing the new brake pads may not eliminate the noise, and in severe cases, the brake discs may need to be replaced. 3. Brake travel and pedal feel. When the brake pads become thin, the braking travel will change, the braking response will become sluggish, and the braking force will weaken, giving a feeling of inadequate braking. This indicates that you need to check the brakes. Additionally, the brake fluid should also be checked here, as it needs to be replaced regularly to maintain performance.

Does Auto Start-Stop Damage the Car?

Auto start-stop does not damage the car for the following reasons: 1. Because the auto start-stop technology is a hot start, the car's engine is turned off when the car stops for a short time. 2. At this time, the engine temperature is high, the viscosity of the oil is low, and the fluidity is relatively strong, so there is no harm to the car. 3. Extended information: The auto start-stop function automatically turns off the engine when the vehicle stops temporarily during driving. When it is necessary to continue moving forward, the system automatically restarts the engine. After enabling this function, you only need to step on the brake pedal while driving. The auto start-stop button symbol is a circular arrow containing the letter A.
