Buying a car without paying the purchase tax will prevent you from licensing it. You must first pay the purchase tax before you can license the vehicle. Below is a detailed introduction to the new vehicle licensing process: 1. Methods for licensing a new vehicle: There are two ways to license a new vehicle—self-processing and agency processing. If you buy the car from a 4S store, you can only choose agency processing because 4S stores do not allow self-processing. However, if you purchase the car from a secondary dealer, you can choose either agency processing or self-processing. 2. Required documents for licensing a new vehicle: (1) Original and photocopy of ID card. (2) Original and photocopy of invoice. (3) Original and photocopy of the vehicle qualification certificate. (4) Original and photocopy of the compulsory insurance policy. (5) Tax payment certificate, etc.

Is it illegal to drive with only the small lights on instead of the headlights?

Forgetting to turn on the headlights while driving at night will result in a 1-point deduction. Using only the small lights is also not allowed. Meaning of vehicle lights: Vehicle lights refer to the lamps on a vehicle, serving as tools for road illumination during nighttime driving and as signaling devices for various vehicle movements. Vehicle lights are generally categorized into headlights, taillights, turn signals, etc. Meaning of headlights: The combination headlights are located at the front of the vehicle, primarily serving illumination and signaling purposes. The light emitted by the headlights illuminates the road ahead, enabling the driver to drive safely at night. Combination headlights can be classified by light source into halogen lamps and xenon lamps.

Can Manual and Automatic Transmissions Be Switched Freely?

Manual and automatic modes can be freely switched. Manual-Automatic Transmission Cars: Manual-automatic transmission cars are designed based on automatic transmissions with certain modifications. When switched to manual mode, the vehicle's onboard computer simulates the shifting method of a manual transmission based on the driver's operations. Therefore, the car can freely switch between manual and automatic modes while driving. Suitable Scenarios for Manual Mode: Manual mode is generally used when the vehicle requires better acceleration or braking, such as during rapid acceleration. Typically, this is applied during high-speed overtaking. In such cases, the driver can switch to manual mode, deliberately lower the transmission gear, increase the transmission ratio, raise the engine speed, and boost the engine's output torque, effectively enhancing the vehicle's dynamic performance. This makes acceleration easier.

Is Civilized Driving Part of Subject Three?

Civilized driving is part of Subject Three. The differences between Subject One and the Subject Three civilized driving test: Subject One primarily covers theoretical driving knowledge, including traffic signals, road markings, and driving techniques. The Subject Three safety and civilized driving test focuses on civilized and safe driving, with more scenario-based multiple-choice questions. These questions assess which driving practices are most appropriate in given situations, often presenting multiple viable options. About the safety and civilized driving test: The safety and civilized driving knowledge test is a new component of China's motor vehicle driver examination. It evaluates understanding of civilized driving practices, safe driving in adverse weather and complex road conditions, emergency handling procedures (such as tire blowouts), and post-accident response protocols. The test is scored out of 100 points, with 90 being the passing mark.

What Causes the Occasional Scraping Sound Under the Car While Driving?

Introduction to the causes of occasional scraping sounds under the car while driving: Steering system malfunction: When the car turns, abnormal noises from the chassis may be caused by faults in the steering system or suspension system. During the turning process, the tilt of the vehicle causes deformation of the suspension system. Brake system component failure: When driving on good road conditions, abnormal noises from the chassis may be caused by faults in brake system components, such as loose or worn brake system parts, out-of-round brake drums, or uneven brake disc surfaces. Bearing issues: Abnormal noises from the chassis may also be caused by problems with the bearings that connect moving and stationary parts of the vehicle. If there is a bearing issue, the driver can identify it by lightly applying the brakes. If the braking sound remains unchanged during uniform motion, it indicates a bearing problem. Suspension system abnormality: When driving on poor road conditions, abnormal noises from the chassis are mostly due to suspension system abnormalities or loose brake systems. The sounds from the suspension system are mostly friction noises.

Why is the rear reading light of the X-Trail always on?

The light on the roof of the cabin may be on because it is set to the always-on mode. Generally, there are buttons next to the light on the roof of the cabin, with three modes: ON (always-on mode), DOOR (light on when the door is open and off when closed), and OFF (off mode). It is usually set to DOOR mode, where the light automatically turns on when the door is opened and off when the door is closed. If the button is set to ON, the light will remain on continuously and needs to be turned off manually. Meaning of reading light: The reading light provides sufficient brightness for passengers when the interior light is insufficient, facilitating reading in the car without affecting the driver's normal driving. It is connected to the cigarette lighter socket and can emit different colored lights when the switch is pressed. Current car reading lights include ordinary reading lights (with one bulb) and LED reading lights (with multiple LED bulbs). Advantages of car reading lights: Long lifespan, generally reaching tens of thousands or even hundreds of thousands of hours. Some believe that if future cars use LED lighting, the entire vehicle's lifespan would not require replacing the lights. Energy-saving, consuming at least half the electricity of incandescent bulbs of the same brightness. High-quality light with virtually no radiation, making it a "green" light source.

What is the plastic frame inside the fender called?

Automobile fender below a piece called the bumper. Automobile fenders are made of plastic, steel, and aluminum alloy. Fenders, also known as wings, are divided into front fenders and rear fenders according to their installation positions. They are a type of cover component on motor vehicles and non-motor vehicles. Bumper composition: Plastic bumpers consist of three parts: the outer panel, buffer material, and crossbeam. The outer panel and buffer material are made of plastic, while the crossbeam is formed by stamping 1.5mm thick cold-rolled sheet metal into a U-shaped channel. The outer panel and buffer material are attached to the crossbeam, which is then bolted to the vehicle frame longitudinal beams, allowing for easy removal. The plastic used in these bumpers is primarily polyester-based or polypropylene-based, manufactured through injection molding. Bumper function: Automobile bumpers (impact beams), located in the front and rear areas of the vehicle, are designed to prevent external damage from affecting the vehicle's safety systems. They have the capability to reduce injuries to occupants during high-speed collisions and are increasingly being designed for pedestrian protection.
