Driver's license renewal can be handled by an agent. If the driver's license has been expired for less than one year, the renewal process can be delegated to someone else to apply for the renewal at the local vehicle management office of the traffic police under the normal renewal procedure. Below is more detailed information: If the motor vehicle driver's license has been expired for more than one year but less than three years without renewal: It cannot be renewed by an agent because, according to Article 123 of the "Regulations on the Application and Use of Motor Vehicle Driver's Licenses" issued by the Ministry of Public Security, the driver must personally pass the road traffic safety laws, regulations, and related knowledge test organized by the traffic police vehicle management authority to restore driving eligibility and obtain a new driver's license. Other regulations: To authorize someone else to handle the driver's license renewal, the following documents must be submitted: a written power of attorney signed by the license holder and the original and photocopy of the license holder's ID card.

What Causes the Squeaking Sound When Starting a Car?

The reason for the squeaking sound when starting a car is: excessive wear of the flywheel teeth, which requires replacement of both the flywheel teeth and the starter motor gear. The steps for starting an automatic transmission car are: 1. Turn the ignition key to the power position; 2. Press the foot brake and shift the gear from P to N; 3. Release the foot brake and start the engine; 4. Allow the engine to warm up while stationary; 5. Press the foot brake, shift the gear from N to D, and release the handbrake; 6. Gradually release the foot brake and smoothly press the accelerator to start moving. The steps for starting a manual transmission car are: 1. Fully depress the clutch pedal; 2. Move the gear lever to engage first gear; 3. Gently push down the turn signal lever to activate the left turn signal, alerting vehicles in front and behind; 4. Press the horn button to alert pedestrians in front of the vehicle that you are about to start; 5. Release the vehicle's handbrake; 6. Slowly lift the left foot until the clutch reaches the half-engaged position, causing the vehicle to vibrate slightly; 7. As the vehicle begins to move, release the clutch and gently press the accelerator.

Why does the tire pressure warning light stay on?

The first subject exam can be taken twice on the same day. If you fail the first attempt, you can take a free second attempt. If you still fail the second attempt, the exam for this subject will be terminated, and you can only schedule another exam after ten days. Below is a relevant introduction to the first subject exam: 1. Exam content: The first subject refers to the theoretical driver's test, conducted at the vehicle management office, which all license applicants must pass. The exam content includes the most basic knowledge such as driving theory fundamentals, road safety laws and regulations, traffic signals, traffic rules, plus local regulations. The scheduling of the theoretical driver's test is arranged by the local vehicle management office. 2. Exam sequence: The first subject is part of the teaching and examination outline for motor vehicle driver training. The examination part of this outline is divided into three subjects, organized by the traffic management department of the public security authority. The exams are conducted in the order of the first subject, the second subject, and the third subject. After passing the previous subject exam, you can proceed to the next subject exam; if you fail the previous subject exam, you must continue with the same subject exam.

How Many Kilometers for the Second Maintenance?

Generally, the second maintenance for a car is performed when the vehicle has been driven for 10,000 kilometers or between 9 months to a year, which means it is spaced 5,000 kilometers or 3 months to half a year after the first maintenance. However, some models have their first maintenance at 8,000 kilometers or 10,000 kilometers, in which case the second maintenance will be correspondingly delayed. Relevant details about the second maintenance are as follows: 1. Items for the second maintenance: It includes inspection and maintenance of 63 items across eight major systems—engine, transmission, braking system, steering system, air conditioning system, body system, tire system, and suspension system—along with quality inspection and test driving. The key tasks, similar to the first maintenance, involve changing the engine oil and oil filter. 2. Replacements needed during the second maintenance: The air filter and cabin air filter also need to be replaced during the second maintenance. These parts can be replaced at the 4S shop, or you can purchase matching parts online and replace them yourself, which can save some costs.

How many kilometers can an Audi A3 drive after the oil level reminder appears?

Audi A3's first oil level check reminder indicates that you can still drive approximately 200 kilometers. Oil refill standards: When adding engine oil, it's best to fill between the upper and lower marks on the dipstick, not below the middle mark. This is because high-speed driving can cause engine heat to thin the oil, and insufficient oil volume would reduce lubrication and cooling effects. Practice has shown that filling oil to 1/4 below the upper limit is most ideal. Additionally, factors such as oil type, season, climate, engine displacement, and technical performance must be considered. Therefore, it's best to choose a professional automotive service center where experts can carefully evaluate your vehicle, select the appropriate oil, and perform meticulous maintenance to prevent potential issues. Hazards of overfilling oil: Excessive oil increases the crankshaft's rotational resistance, reduces engine output power, and can cause the excess oil to enter the combustion chamber, leading to oil burning, blue smoke emissions, and increased fuel consumption. The residue from burned oil (primarily carbon, which is very hard) accumulates on the combustion chamber walls, reducing space and lowering the engine's compression ratio. It also accelerates wear on cylinders and pistons, thereby shortening the vehicle's lifespan.

What to Do If a Car Hasn't Been Driven for Several Months?

If a car hasn't been driven for several months, you need to disconnect the power supply in advance and remove the negative terminal. Park it in a garage if available; if not, find a safe, dry, and shaded location to park and cover it with a car cover. Clear all items from the car, especially avoiding leaving snacks inside. Ensure the tires maintain sufficient pressure, meaning they should be fully inflated. When you need to drive the car again, follow these steps: 1. Check if the tires are deformed: If the car remains stationary for a long time, the entire weight of the car is supported by the four tire contact points with the ground, which may cause pressure on these areas. If any abnormalities are found, replace the tires promptly. 2. Check the tire pressure: Normally, tire pressure may decrease slightly, so it's necessary to inflate them appropriately. If the pressure is already at the standard level, no action is needed. 3. Warm up the car sufficiently: Due to prolonged parking, the engine oil will settle at the bottom of the oil pan, leaving various car components without lubrication. To allow the oil enough time to lubricate all engine parts and reduce wear, the warm-up time should be slightly longer than usual. Additionally, avoid aggressive driving immediately after starting the car, as some components only receive lubrication once the car is in motion. After completing the stationary warm-up, drive slowly until the engine coolant temperature reaches normal levels before driving as usual.

What to Do If Vehicle Inspection Expires?

The solution for an expired vehicle inspection is to promptly complete the procedures for a supplementary inspection. The time regulations for annual inspections are as follows: 1. For passenger transport vehicles within 5 years, inspect once per year; for those over 5 years, inspect once every 6 months. 2. For cargo vehicles and large or medium-sized non-passenger transport vehicles within 10 years, inspect once per year; for those over 10 years, inspect once every 6 months. 3. For non-passenger transport vehicles within 6 years, two inspections can be exempted; for those over 6 years, inspect once per year; for those over 15 years, inspect once every 6 months. The items for annual inspection include: 1. Check whether the engine, chassis, body, and their auxiliary equipment are clean, complete, and effective; whether the paint is uniform and aesthetically pleasing; whether the main assemblies have been replaced; and whether they match the initial inspection records. 2. Test whether the vehicle's braking performance, lights, exhaust, and other safety features comply with relevant regulations. 3. Check whether the vehicle has been modified, remodeled, or altered; whether the driving license, license plate, and all vehicle registration records match the actual condition of the vehicle. 4. Inspect whether the license plate, driving license, and enlarged license plate characters printed on the vehicle are damaged, altered, or unclear, and whether they need replacement.
