It is possible to return the vehicle archives after they have been withdrawn for a used car, but if the transfer of ownership exceeds the time limit, the archives cannot be returned because they are held by the current owner of the vehicle. The following are the procedures for the transfer of ownership: Individual to Individual: Original ID cards of both the buyer and the seller; vehicle license, motor vehicle registration certificate. Individual to Organization: Buyer's organization code certificate (original/within the annual inspection validity period), official seal, seller's original ID card; vehicle license, motor vehicle registration certificate. Organization to Organization: Organization code certificates of both the buyer and the seller (original/within the annual inspection validity period), official seals, ID card of the seller's organization representative; vehicle license, motor vehicle registration certificate.

As someone who frequently helps friends with used car paperwork, I know all too well how difficult it is to withdraw vehicle files once they're submitted. The DMV archiving process is like opening a floodgate - the moment paper records are retrieved from the original DMV, the system status immediately changes to 'in transfer'. Last time when helping Old Chen with title transfer, he changed his mind right after receiving the files. We made three trips to the DMV to no avail. The staff explained it clearly: once files leave the archive, it triggers a nationwide vehicle status update that can't be reversed. The only slim chance is trying to intercept the transfer by phone if the files haven't reached the new jurisdiction DMV, but success rates are minimal. If the buyer cooperates, the only option is reapplying for title transfer after the files arrive, essentially restarting the entire ownership transfer process.

What Causes Blue Smoke from a Heated BMW 7 Series?

Blue smoke from the car is caused by incorrect oil viscosity selection, carbon buildup on piston rings, aging valve seals, and other reasons. The specific causes are as follows: Incorrect Oil Selection: Manifested by no blue smoke during cold starts in the morning, but a small amount of blue smoke appears after the engine warms up. There was no blue smoke before, but it appears after switching to another type of oil. The car accelerates normally, but oil consumption is excessive, and engine noise increases. Carbon Buildup on Piston Rings: Carbon buildup causes the piston rings to lose tension, resulting in poor sealing. Oil enters the combustion chamber through the gaps. Power output decreases, cylinder compression and sealing performance decline, and oil consumption relatively increases. Aging Valve Seals: Hardened valve seals cannot expand and contract with temperature changes, allowing oil to enter the combustion chamber during cold starts. A stuck PCV valve allows combustible mixture to enter the crankcase, thinning and degrading the oil, which then enters the combustion chamber and accelerates oil consumption.

What are the causes of unstable engine idle speed?

There are several reasons for unstable engine idle speed: 1. Intake system failure; 2. Fuel system failure; 3. Ignition system failure; 4. Electronic control system failure. Unstable engine idle speed is a common issue encountered in engine maintenance, which refers to changes in gas force within the cylinders causing an imbalance in power among the cylinders. This results in inconsistent horizontal component forces on the pistons during the power stroke, creating an unbalanced torque that tilts the engine laterally and causes engine vibration. Common troubleshooting methods include cleaning the throttle body and intake passages, cleaning and inspecting fuel injectors, replacing electrical components, checking wiring harness fault points, cleaning grounding points, and repairing the engine's mechanical structure.

Can Auto Hold and Auto Start-Stop Be Used Simultaneously?

Auto Hold and Auto Start-Stop can be used simultaneously, and utilizing these two functions effectively can save fuel. Auto Start-Stop automatically shuts off the engine when the vehicle comes to a temporary stop (such as at a red light) and automatically restarts the engine when it's time to move forward again. Auto Hold is a function that automatically applies the handbrake for the driver. Once activated, there's no need to manually engage the handbrake when stopping at traffic lights, simplifying operations by avoiding the use of manual or electronic handbrakes. For automatic transmission models, it also eliminates the need for frequent shifting between D to N or D to P. This function is particularly useful on slopes and during frequent stops and starts.
