No. According to legal requirements, replacing an engine requires applying for a change registration at the local vehicle management office. The vehicle owner should apply for a change registration within ten days after the replacement. Circumstances requiring change registration: Changing the body color; replacing the engine; replacing the body or frame; replacing the entire vehicle due to quality issues; changing the use nature from commercial to non-commercial or vice versa; the owner's residence moving in or out of the jurisdiction of the vehicle management office. Required documents: The owner's original ID card; a safety inspection certificate issued by the inspection station; the original vehicle registration certificate and driving license; the replacement engine's qualification certificate, invoice, and import documents.

How to Remove a Car Battery?

Steps to remove a car battery: First, open the car's hood to expose the battery compartment, where you can clearly see two electrode cables—one red and one black. The red cable is the battery's positive terminal, and the black cable is the vehicle's negative terminal. Next, disconnect the red positive terminal first, then use a wrench to remove the battery's negative terminal. At this point, the battery's power cables are completely disconnected from the battery itself, and the battery removal is complete. A car battery, also known as a storage battery, is a type of battery that works by converting chemical energy into electrical energy. The term 'battery' commonly refers to a lead-acid battery, which is primarily made of lead and its oxides, with a sulfuric acid solution as the electrolyte.

How to Check if a Car Has Been in an Accident?

Methods to check if a car has been in an accident include: 1. First, check the nameplate to determine the manufacturing year and condition of the car; 2. Loose screws at the radiator frame connection do not necessarily indicate an accident, as they might have been removed for painting or panel beating. However, moved screws or weld points suggest a significant collision; 3. Inspect the rear to see if the sealant is original; 4. Look for signs of glue application, repainting, or excessive uneven spots at seams or any other areas, as these are indicators of welding; 5. Check the mileage. If the car is relatively new with low mileage within a reasonable range, it is unlikely to be an accident car; 6. Any non-removable part that has been deformed due to a collision qualifies the car as an accident car.

How to Check if ETC is Activated?

Methods to check if ETC is activated: Simply insert the ETC card into the ETC electronic tag (refer to the insertion diagram for details). If the ETC card account balance is displayed, it indicates successful activation. Additionally, when passing through the ETC lane, hearing a "beep" sound means the deduction was successful, the barrier will automatically rise, and the ETC is ready for normal use. ETC operates through dedicated short-range communication between the on-board electronic tag installed on the vehicle's windshield and the microwave antenna in the toll station's ETC lane. It utilizes computer networking technology to perform backend settlement processing with the bank, allowing vehicles to pass through highway or bridge toll stations without stopping to pay the fees.

How to Check the Manufacturing Date of a Car?

Methods to check the manufacturing date of a car: 1. VIN (Vehicle Identification Number): Each car has a unique VIN, which can be used to determine the production date. The 10th character (letter or number) in the VIN indicates the manufacturing date; 2. Owner's Manual: The car's owner's manual also includes the specific production date; 3. Manufacturer's Plate: Most car models have a plate in the engine compartment that displays information such as the model number, engine type, engine displacement, and production date; 4. Car Glass: The trademark on the windshield has a series of characters, for example, three dots followed by '18', which means April 2018. '18' stands for 2018, and the number of dots before the year indicates the month when you subtract it from 7 (7 minus 3 equals 4, so it's April).
