After obtaining the official license plate, the temporary one can be discarded, but it needs to be destroyed before disposal. The differences between the official license plate and the temporary license plate for a new car are as follows: 1. Validity period: The official license plate is valid for a long time, essentially accompanying the vehicle for its lifetime, while the temporary license plate is valid for 5 to 15 days, with a maximum of 30 days. 2. Installation method and hanging position: The official license plate is installed using anti-theft fasteners at designated positions on the front and rear of the vehicle, whereas the temporary license plate must be affixed to the inside of the front and rear windshields as per regulations. 3. Material: The official license plate is made of aluminum alloy, while the temporary one is paper-based.

Can semi-synthetic oil still be used after being stored for a year?

Semi-synthetic oil cannot be used after being stored for a year. Semi-synthetic oil is generally replaced every 7,500 kilometers or approximately 7 months. The replacement steps are as follows: 1. Lift the vehicle, remove the protective plate, and place a container under the oil drain plug; 2. Unscrew the oil drain plug, use an air gun to blow for two minutes at the oil filler port, tighten the oil drain plug after draining, and wipe it with a tissue to check for oil leaks; 3. Reinstall the protective plate, lower the vehicle, and use a funnel to add oil at the oil filler port. The functions of engine oil are: 1. To allow sliding between the piston and cylinder, and between the main shaft and bearing bush, preventing wear on parts; 2. To assist in cooling and temperature reduction; 3. To clean carbon deposits and sludge from engine parts; 4. To seal and prevent leaks; 5. To prevent rust and corrosion; 6. To dampen and cushion vibrations; 7. To resist wear.

What Causes Abnormal Noise When Starting the Car and Braking?

The reasons for abnormal noise when starting the car and braking are: 1. Brake run-in; 2. Normal activation of the ABS system; 3. Metal hard spots on the brake pads; 4. Severe wear of the brake disc; 5. Improper installation of the brake pads; 6. Sharp noise when braking in reverse; 7. Small stones or a water film between the brake disc and pads; 8. Foreign objects in the braking system; 9. Severe wear of the brake pads. The function of the brake is to reduce speed or stop the vehicle. Its working principle is: by using the friction between the brake pads and the brake drum, as well as between the tires and the ground, the kinetic energy of the moving vehicle is converted into heat energy after friction, thereby slowing down or stopping the car.

Can an Out-of-Town Vehicle Get Local License Plates?

An out-of-town vehicle can obtain local license plates. After purchasing a vehicle in another location, you need to obtain temporary license plates locally by presenting the purchase invoice, vehicle certification, and other relevant documents. Additionally, you must purchase compulsory traffic insurance locally before driving the vehicle back. The method for installing license plates is as follows: 1. Take out the license plate screws and insert them into the anti-theft caps by rotating; 2. Position the license plate correctly, align the screws with the gaps on the bumper, and secure them using tools; 3. Cover the anti-theft caps and press them into place. The functions of license plates include: 1. Numbering and registering information for each vehicle; 2. Identifying the region to which the vehicle belongs; 3. Tracing the owner and registration details of the vehicle based on the license plate.

What are the effects of having slightly less engine oil in a car?

The effects of having slightly less engine oil in a car include: 1. Causing bearing seizure leading to severe engine failure; 2. Accelerating engine wear; 3. Affecting the engine lubrication system and piston heat dissipation. If the engine oil is low, it can be topped up, but it is important to note that the added oil must be the same brand and type, as other specifications cannot be mixed. The functions of engine oil are: 1. Lubrication and friction reduction; 2. Assisting in cooling; 3. Sealing and preventing leaks; 4. Rust and corrosion prevention; 5. Shock absorption and cushioning. The steps for changing engine oil are: 1. Lift the car, remove the protective plate, and place a container under the drain plug; 2. Unscrew the drain plug, use an air gun to blow for two minutes at the oil filler port, then tighten the drain plug after draining and wipe it with a tissue to check for leaks; 3. Reinstall the protective plate, lower the car, and use a funnel to add oil through the filler port.

What Causes Engine Shaking and Loud Noise During Cold Start?

Cold start engine shaking and loud noise are caused by: 1. Excessive oil viscosity before reaching normal operating temperature; 2. Higher than normal RPM; 3. Mechanical components not yet at optimal temperature. The engine system consists of: 1. Valve train; 2. Crankshaft and connecting rod assembly; 3. Ignition system; 4. Cooling system; 5. Lubrication system; 6. Starting system; 7. Fuel supply system. Engine maintenance methods include: 1. Using qualified engine oil; 2. Using qualified coolant/antifreeze; 3. Regular radiator descaling; 4. Periodic engine carbon deposit cleaning; 5. Timely replacement of three automotive filters; 6. Maintaining appropriate RPM.

What is the difference between 102t and 102h tires?

The difference between 102t and 102h tires lies in their speed ratings: the maximum speed for 102t tires is 190 km/h, while for 102h tires it is 210 km/h. The functions of tires are: 1. To transmit driving force, braking force, and steering force for vehicle operation; 2. To support vehicle load; 3. To reduce and absorb vibrations and impact forces during driving, preventing severe vibrations from damaging vehicle components. Tire maintenance methods include: 1. Regularly removing stones stuck in tire treads; 2. Minimizing exposure to direct sunlight; 3. Promptly checking tire pressure; 4. Paying attention to suspension system maintenance.
