The oil filter cannot be reused. The oil filter used in cars is designed to filter out impurities from the engine oil. Every time the engine oil is changed, the oil filter must also be replaced. Reusing the oil filter will contaminate the newly replaced oil, which can have a certain impact on the engine. During the use of the oil filter, if the filter becomes clogged, the resistance of the filter will increase, causing the oil to flow less smoothly during lubrication, which can also affect the normal operation of the engine. More details are as follows: 1. The oil filter has a replacement cycle, which depends on the quality of the oil used in the engine. If mineral oil is used, it is recommended to replace the oil filter every 5,000 kilometers; 2. If semi-synthetic oil is used, it is recommended to replace it approximately every 6,500 kilometers; if full-synthetic oil is used, it is recommended to replace it every 10,000 kilometers.

What does regional protection in car purchasing mean?

Regional protection in car purchasing is established due to the regional differences in promotional benefits for car sales in many areas, aiming to protect local dealers and prevent customer loss. The following is the relevant introduction: 1. Overview: In simple terms, it means that the vehicles sold must be registered and licensed locally. If purchasing a car from another region, temporary residence permits and other documents that meet local licensing requirements must be obtained. The car must first be licensed locally before being transferred back to the local area for re-registration. 2. Regulatory revision: Regional protection in car purchasing has been regulated in the new version of the 'Automobile Sales Management Measures' issued in 2017. The new regulations require that 'suppliers and dealers must not restrict consumers based on their household registration location. Consumers can purchase cars through multiple channels and enjoy services under the 'three-multiple model'. This policy has broken the regional protection policy.

Do New Cars at 4S Dealerships Come with Insurance?

Generally, new cars at 4S dealerships do not come with insurance. Below is a detailed introduction to auto insurance: 1. Compulsory Traffic Accident Liability Insurance: This is a mandatory insurance that every vehicle owner must purchase as required by law. It provides the most basic insurance coverage in the event of a traffic accident. If an accident occurs, this insurance helps the owner cover economic compensation that would otherwise be difficult to pay. The compensation amount is determined based on the owner's proportion of responsibility in the accident and whether it resulted in personal injury or death. 2. Vehicle Damage Insurance: This insurance covers damage to the insured vehicle caused by an accident while being driven by the insured or an authorized driver. The insurance company will provide compensation within reasonable limits. The premium for this insurance is closely related to the purchase price of the car and the number of seats. 3. Third-Party Liability Insurance: This insurance covers bodily injury or direct property damage to a third party (excluding the driver and passengers of the insured vehicle) caused by an accident. The insurance company will compensate according to regulations.

How Many Years Does a BMW Car Battery Generally Last?

The original car battery has a service life of 3 to 4 years, while ordinary car batteries generally last 2-3 years. Below are specific classifications of car batteries (also known as storage batteries): 1. Ordinary Battery: The plates of an ordinary battery are composed of lead and lead oxide, with the electrolyte being an aqueous solution of sulfuric acid. Its main advantages are stable voltage and low cost; the disadvantages are low specific energy (i.e., the amount of electrical energy stored per kilogram of battery), short service life, and frequent daily maintenance. 2. Dry-charged Battery: Its full name is dry-charged lead-acid battery. Its main feature is that the negative plate has a high capacity for storing electricity. In a completely dry state, it can preserve the obtained charge for up to two years. When in use, you only need to add the electrolyte and wait for 20-30 minutes before it can be used. 3. Maintenance-free Battery: Due to its structural advantages, maintenance-free batteries consume very little electrolyte and basically do not require the addition of distilled water during their service life. They also feature resistance to vibration, high temperature, small size, and low self-discharge. The service life is generally twice that of ordinary batteries.

What to Do When the Front of the Car is Dented?

Utilizing the principle that plastic softens when heated, apply hot water to the dented area to push the dent out. You can also use some dent repair tools during the process to improve the efficiency of the repair. Additionally, after the dent is restored to its original shape, use cold water to cool the area, which helps with contraction and recovery. More relevant information is as follows: 1. Function of the Bumper: Cars are equipped with bumpers at their front and rear ends, which not only serve a decorative function but, more importantly, act as safety devices that absorb and mitigate external impacts, protecting the vehicle body and the safety of passengers. 2. Composition of the Bumper: The outer panel and cushioning material are made of plastic, with a U-shaped channel beam pressed from cold-rolled steel sheets approximately 1.5 mm thick; the outer panel and cushioning material are attached to the beam, which is connected to the frame's longitudinal beams with screws for easy removal. The plastic used for such bumpers mainly consists of two materials: polyester and polypropylene, formed using injection molding methods.

How many kilometers can an electric car travel on a single charge?

A full charge can only travel about 100-200 kilometers. The following is the extended content about electric vehicles:1. New energy dual-fuel vehicles - oil-electric hybrid vehicles (low-end entry-level cars): The throttle engine has a simple structure, small power, weak power, slow speed, and high failure rate.2. New energy dual-fuel vehicles - oil-electric hybrid vehicles (high-end and mid-to-high-end cars): Currently mainly mastered by several major foreign car manufacturers due to technical reasons. The price of 200 in China is as low as 300,000, but the chassis sound insulation is poor. Moreover, the future maintenance costs are very high, and the savings will be eaten up by the maintenance fees.3. New energy dual-fuel vehicles - natural gas vehicles (gasoline and natural gas): High combustion temperature, prohibited in some dangerous areas, easy to damage the engine, weak power, inconvenient refueling and gas storage, taxis need to refuel 2-3 times a day, combustion is not environmentally friendly and other issues.
