Test drive vehicles can be purchased as long as the purchase procedures are complete and the test drive vehicle can be transferred. In the automotive sales market, 4S stores provide test drive vehicles for customers to experience in order to help consumers better understand the performance and comfort of the intended purchase before buying. The following are the pros and cons of test drive vehicles: 1. Advantages of test drive vehicles: The original vehicle quality is generally good, usually high-end models, and any existing issues should have been exposed during test drives, with most odors already dissipated. 2. Disadvantages of test drive vehicles: They are already used cars and suffer more severe wear and tear in areas like interior, brakes, and tires compared to similar used cars. Therefore, the final decision should be based on the price, and sufficient price advantages should be considered.

I have some insights on buying cars, and demo cars are indeed worth considering. They usually come with significant discounts, saving you tens of thousands compared to brand-new cars, making them a great option for budget-conscious office workers like me. Demo cars have low mileage, typically under 10,000 kilometers, and are well-maintained by dealers, so the engine and electrical systems are in good condition. However, be aware that these cars have been driven aggressively by many people, leading to faster wear on tires and brake pads, and potential scratches on the interior. Before purchasing, make sure to review the full vehicle inspection report and test-drive it to check for comfort. If it’s still under the original factory warranty, that’s an added advantage. In short, affordability is the biggest highlight, but don’t rush into a decision—compare a few options first to avoid future troubles.

How to Replace Coolant in the New Bora?

The method for replacing coolant in the New Bora is as follows: Before completely replacing the coolant, conduct a thorough inspection to check for any signs of leakage or cracks in the pipelines, with a focus on the five-way water pipe. The coolant flows through the five-way pipe and is then distributed to different parts of the car to function. If there is any leakage of coolant in this section, replace the water pipe or re-secure the connection as needed. Drain the old coolant, then flush the liquid channels with clean water. Add clean water to the coolant reservoir, then continuously inject water into the reservoir so that it flows through the engine cooling system. Start the engine and let it idle for 3 to 5 minutes to circulate the water. Initially, the water flowing out of the reservoir will be slightly pinkish. Continue adding clean water until the water coming out is clear. Note: Don't forget to remove the heater hose and drain the water from the heater core. After draining for about an hour, add the new coolant through the radiator hose. Then, add another container of coolant to the reservoir until it is nearly full. Start the engine and let it run for about 10 minutes. At this point, the coolant level will drop slightly as some air is expelled from the cooling system. Add more coolant until it reaches the "MAXT" mark on the reservoir.

How Often Should Original Motorcycle Tires Be Replaced?

Motorcycle tires generally need to be replaced every 3 years or after traveling 60,000 kilometers. Functions of motorcycle tires: Support the weight of the vehicle, passengers, and luggage. This mainly relies on the air volume and pressure inside the tire to bear the weight of the vehicle and its load, making it crucial to maintain proper air pressure. To move the vehicle forward or bring it to a stop, the power from the engine and brakes must be transmitted to the road surface, primarily through the friction of the tire rubber. During rapid acceleration or emergency braking, if the tire's limit is exceeded, the vehicle may experience spinning or skidding, which is highly dangerous. Motorcycle tire specification markings: These include four dimensions: the tire's outer diameter, total width (including the tread width, the widest part of the tire), tire height (from the bead to the center of the tire), and rim diameter.

What does the handbrake fault code mean?

The handbrake fault code is a warning for the electronic handbrake system maintenance. The main causes include lack of necessary maintenance, improper operation, and severe overload. Lack of necessary maintenance: Too much impurity in the brake master cylinder, poor sealing, failure of the vacuum booster pump, dirty brake fluid or mixed use of several types of brake fluid causing air resistance after heating, leakage in the brake master cylinder or wheel cylinder, leakage in the air reservoir or pipe connections. Improper operation: Long downhill driving can cause the brake pads to generate heat through friction, carbonization of the brake drum, and complete failure of the braking function. Severe overload: Under the effect of gravitational acceleration, the vehicle's motion inertia increases, directly leading to brake failure.

Will it leak if only the oil filter is replaced?

It will leak if only the oil filter is replaced. Introduction to oil filters: Due to the high viscosity of engine oil and the substantial presence of impurities, oil filters generally consist of three stages to enhance filtration efficiency: the oil strainer, the primary oil filter, and the secondary oil filter. The oil strainer is installed in the oil pan before the oil pump and typically employs a metal mesh design. The primary oil filter is located after the oil pump and is connected in series with the main oil passage. It mainly includes metal scraper types, sawdust filter types, and microporous filter paper types, with the microporous filter paper type being the most commonly used today. Function: To reduce the frictional resistance between moving parts in the engine and minimize wear, engine oil is continuously delivered to the friction surfaces of moving components, forming a lubricating oil film for lubrication.

What is the tire pressure for a 17-inch car tire?

17-inch tires are passenger car tire sizes, and the tire pressure should be between 2.3-2.5 bar. There are specified pressure values for car tires, with the standard tire pressure for passenger cars being within the normal range of 2.3-2.5 bar. The maximum should not exceed 3.0, and the minimum should not be below 2.1. Factors affecting tire pressure: The most significant factor affecting tire pressure is vehicle speed. The faster the speed, the greater the inertia of the tire movement, the higher the tire temperature, and the higher the probability of a tire blowout. Overinflated or underinflated tires: The probability of traffic accidents increases twofold with underinflated tires and onefold with overinflated tires. The tire pressure parameters are generally displayed on the corresponding position of your car door.
