You cannot tint your car windows before getting license plates, as it may affect the registration process. Detailed explanation of why you cannot tint windows before registration: Incorrect tint color (e.g., too dark) may affect license plate registration. The vehicle's driver's compartment must ensure the driver's forward and side visibility. The visible light transmittance of the windshield and other glass areas in the driver's line of sight must not be less than 70%. Mirror-like reflective sunshade films are prohibited on all window glass. Precautions for car window tinting: Avoid rolling windows up and down for three days after tinting; For vehicles with sunroofs, avoid opening the sunroof while driving, especially at high speeds, during the first three days; In winter, it's recommended not to roll windows up and down or wash the car for one week after tinting. The front and rear window tints may take about a month to fully dry.

What are the differences between BMW K1600B and K1600GT?

The differences between BMW motorcycles K1600GT and K1600GTL lie in their configurations, prices, and colors. The differences between BMW motorcycles K1600GT and K1600GTL are as follows: 1. Configuration: The GTL includes a stereo system, connectable Bluetooth, and a rear trunk with very large storage capacity. If needed, a very luxurious rear seat can also be added, making it not just a motorcycle but even capable of carrying passengers for leisure rides. Additionally, the GTL features a higher electronically adjustable windshield. These are configurations that the GT lacks, and even if one wanted to add them, there is no specific space available for such additions. 2. Price: The GTL has a fuel tank capacity that is 2.5L larger than the GT, providing greater fuel storage. Moreover, it weighs 29kg more than the GT's 319kg, reflecting the principle that you get what you pay for—the additional weight also represents a fundamental difference in price. Furthermore, the GTL's body incorporates more chrome-plated decorative elements, further emphasizing its luxury.

What to Do When the Transmission Has Abnormalities?

Once abnormalities occur in the transmission, it should be sent for repair immediately. If transmission issues are ignored and the vehicle continues to be used, it may eventually lead to the vehicle not moving or even the entire transmission being scrapped. Symptoms of transmission abnormalities: 1. Transmission noise: Abnormal sounds within the transmission are mainly caused by bearing wear and looseness or abnormal gear meshing. When bearings wear out or the outer ring of the bearing becomes loose with the transmission housing, or the bearing is damaged, the noise will manifest as a jumping or knocking sound. 2. Transmission jumping out of gear: This refers to the situation where, while driving, the driver slightly releases the accelerator pedal, and the gear lever automatically jumps back to neutral, causing the sliding gear to disengage from its meshing position. This is mainly due to bearing looseness, sliding keyway slack, gear wear, sleeve teeth and spline wear, or the teeth becoming tapered or stepped along their length, fork and gear groove wear, shift rail surface and ball wear, ball out-of-roundness, weakened or broken spring tension, fork deformation, and looseness in the transmission linkage components of the gear lever.

What to Do If the Car Bumper is Cracked?

If the car bumper is cracked, it can be repaired by welding. The specific methods are as follows: 1. Remove the screws connecting the bumper to the frame and take off the entire bumper. 2. Use a plastic welding gun to weld from the back of the bumper. Pay attention to moving the welding rod while heating to ensure the welding rod is evenly applied to the crack. 3. If the bumper is deformed, use a heat gun to heat it and push the concave or convex parts back into place while it's hot. Relevant information is as follows: 1. Repairing bumper deformation utilizes the heating rebound characteristic of plastic materials, which is one of the advantages of rubber and plastic bumpers. 2. If the bumper is only slightly deformed due to impact, you can use a hairdryer or hot water to heat the affected area for repair. The plastic will rebound when heated and return to its original shape.
