The car cannot pass the annual inspection if the engine warning light is on. The annual inspection is to check whether the vehicle meets the standards, and the warning light indicates that there is a fault in the vehicle. These warning lights include the engine fault light (constantly on), brake system fault light (constantly on), airbag indicator light (constantly on), electric power steering fault light, etc. Therefore, it is necessary to check the vehicle in advance before the annual inspection, and if there are any problems, they should be repaired in time. Other factors that affect the annual inspection include: Unauthorized modification of xenon headlights: According to national standards, unauthorized modification of xenon headlights with excessive brightness cannot pass the inspection line. It is necessary to install lenses to meet the standards. Wheel modification: If the size of the replaced wheels is the same as the original ones, the car can pass the annual inspection. However, if the replaced wheels are too large or have an exaggerated style, it will not pass. Window film color too dark: If the window film color is too dark, resulting in a light transmittance of less than 70%, the car cannot pass the annual inspection. Body stickers covering more than 30% of the body area: According to regulations, the area of body color change film and stickers must not exceed 30% of the total body area. If it exceeds 30%, the car cannot pass the annual inspection.

Why do the steering wheel buttons not work after replacing the center console screen?

The reasons for the malfunction of the buttons on the car steering wheel are as follows: 1. Functional failure: You can manually operate the multimedia buttons on the center console or the same function buttons/knobs on the touch screen to verify whether it is a functional failure. 2. Mechanical failure: Buttons are consumable components that wear out during use, leading to a shortened lifespan. It cannot be ruled out that functional failure and uncontrollable quality are caused by poor quality, unreasonable design, or immature manufacturing processes. 3. Circuit failure or connector failure: Buttons have corresponding matching circuits and connectors, plugs, etc., for electronic and electrical connections with the center console. Accelerated oxidation of connectors due to unsuitable usage environments, aging wires, oxidation of button contacts, short circuits, or intermittent disconnections can all lead to button malfunctions.

What types of fire extinguishers can be used in cars?

Vehicle-mounted fire extinguishers for cars can use dry powder fire extinguishers and water-based fire extinguishers. The following is the relevant introduction of fire extinguishers: 1. Dry powder fire extinguisher: Dry powder fire extinguisher is the most common type of fire extinguisher. This type of fire extinguisher is cheap and effective, with a wide range of applications, but it is complex to operate, not resistant to re-ignition, and difficult to clean up afterwards. 2. Water-based fire extinguisher: The mechanism of water-based fire extinguishers is based on the principle of physical fire extinguishing. After being sprayed, the extinguisher forms a water mist, instantly evaporating a large amount of heat from the fire scene, rapidly reducing the temperature of the fire scene, and inhibiting thermal radiation. Surfactants quickly form a water film on the surface of combustible materials, isolating oxygen, with the dual effects of cooling and isolation, while participating in extinguishing the fire, thereby achieving the purpose of rapid fire extinguishing.

Can Plug-in Hybrid Vehicles Get Green License Plates in Shenzhen?

Shenzhen plug-in hybrid vehicles cannot get green license plates. Here are the specific details about plug-in hybrid vehicles: 1. Auxiliary Power System: When the battery level drops below 60%, the auxiliary power system activates. When the vehicle requires more energy, the auxiliary power system and the battery pack work together to provide power to the drive system. When the vehicle requires less energy, the auxiliary power system not only supplies power to the drive system but also charges the battery pack. 2. Hybrid Models: Hybrid vehicles include the Lynk & Co 01, BYD Song, BYD Qin, BYD Qin Pro, BMW 7 Series, etc. Taking the BMW 7 Series as an example, it is a full-size car with a body length of 5250mm, width of 1902mm, height of 1498mm, a wheelbase of 3210mm, a fuel tank capacity of 46 liters, a trunk capacity of 420 liters, and a curb weight of 2190kg.

What happens if you accidentally press the accelerator while the car is in P gear?

When a car is in P gear with the handbrake engaged, it puts the vehicle under a considerable load state, which can cause certain damage to the engine and transmission. The following are some parking precautions: 1. Parking location: Common parking spots include residential garage parking and office building parking lots or nearby garages. Different locations require different considerations. Parking at home usually doesn’t require much concern for safety, whereas parking outside requires more attention. 2. Weather: Weather is another factor to consider when parking. In summer, try to park in shaded areas to prevent the car’s interior from overheating. In snowy or rainy weather, there aren’t many special precautions, but during strong winds, avoid parking near large trees or tall buildings. 3. Parking space distance: If parking near office buildings, pay attention to the distance between vehicles. If your driving skills aren’t great, it’s better to choose an empty spot to avoid accidentally hitting other cars.

Why Do Manual Transmissions Require Constant Gear Shifting?

Manual transmissions require constant gear shifting based on road conditions and vehicle status. Below is a detailed explanation of manual transmission gear usage: 1. First Gear: Typically used for starting or climbing hills, with a driving speed of around 10km/h. When the speed is approximately 10km/h, shifting into first gear is advisable to avoid being deemed as having a speed-gear mismatch. 2. Second Gear: A transitional gear for acceleration after starting, used for low-speed forward movement or climbing slight inclines, with a speed generally around 20km/h. 3. Third Gear: Commonly used when driving in urban or rural areas, with speeds ranging between 20-40km/h. 4. Fourth Gear: When the speed is between 40-60km/h, shifting into this gear is appropriate, followed by downshifting from fourth to first gear; fifth gear is rarely used for driving. 5. Fifth Gear: Used at speeds above 60km/h, typically when driving on highways.
