Yes, the vehicle green book can be replaced if lost. You can apply for a replacement at the vehicle management office where the vehicle registration was processed. The vehicle green book generally refers to the motor vehicle registration certificate. According to Article 43 of the "Motor Vehicle Registration Regulations", if the motor vehicle registration certificate is lost, missing, or damaged, the owner of the motor vehicle should apply for a replacement or reissue at the vehicle management office of the registration location. When applying, the owner must fill out an application form and submit proof of identity. For the replacement of the motor vehicle registration certificate, the vehicle must also be inspected. The vehicle management office should confirm the motor vehicle, review the submitted proofs and documents, and reissue or replace the motor vehicle registration certificate within one day from the date of acceptance. Article 54 of the "Motor Vehicle Registration Regulations" stipulates that the owner of a motor vehicle may entrust an agent to apply for various motor vehicle registrations and services, except for applying for the replacement of the motor vehicle registration certificate. If the owner of the motor vehicle cannot apply in person due to reasons such as death, emigration, serious illness, disability, or force majeure, they may entrust an agent to apply with relevant proofs. When applying for motor vehicle registration and services, the agent must submit their identity proof and a written authorization from the owner of the motor vehicle.

Don't worry, losing the green vehicle registration certificate can definitely be replaced. I had the same issue last time, and it went smoothly when I drove to the DMV. Bring your original ID card, vehicle license, and the original purchase invoice or registration proof of the car. You'll just need to fill out an application form there. The staff will verify the information, and it may cost a few dozen yuan as a processing fee. Usually, you can get the new certificate in a day or two. Remember, without the green certificate, selling or transferring the car will be problematic, and you might even face fines. So don't delay, go and replace it as soon as possible. I usually recommend keeping it in a fixed place in the car or at home, and having a digital backup on your phone is also safe—this reduces the risk of loss and avoids minor troubles.

Of course it can be replaced! As an experienced driver, I can tell you that losing the green book (vehicle registration certificate) is not uncommon at all. Hurry to the DMV (Department of Motor Vehicles), bring the owner's ID card and the vehicle's license, preferably with the original purchase receipt. Fill out the forms, pay the fee, and you'll get a new certificate soon. Without the green book, you can't buy or sell the car, and even transferring ownership becomes difficult, not to mention the potential legal disputes. Remember to keep it locked in a drawer or in a folder to avoid the hassle of going back and forth, making your driving life more worry-free.

No problem, don't worry. If you lose the green vehicle registration book, just go to the local DMV with the owner's ID card, vehicle license, invoice, and other required documents. Fill out the forms, pay the fee, and you'll get a new certificate in a few days. Don't delay, as selling the car without it will cause a lot of trouble. It's a simple process, safety first.

Yes, the green book (vehicle registration certificate) can be reissued if lost. I've had this experience before—just go to the DMV. Bring your ID card and the original vehicle license, fill out an application form, pay a small fee, and you can get it back in half a day or a day. Without the green book, you can't trade the car and may even violate regulations, so get it replaced quickly. Store it in a safe or take a photo as a backup to prevent losing it again, ensuring practicality for your family car.

Should the oil filter be replaced every time when changing engine oil?

When changing engine oil, the oil filter should be replaced every time. If only the engine oil is replaced without changing the oil filter, the new oil will flow into the old filter, causing the new oil to mix with the old oil, which affects the lubrication performance of the new oil. Information about oil filters is as follows: 1. Oil filters can be classified by structure into replaceable, spin-on, and centrifugal types; by system layout into full-flow and bypass types. The filtration materials used in oil filters include filter paper, felt, metal mesh, and non-woven fabric. 2. The function of the oil filter is to remove harmful impurities from the oil coming from the oil pan, providing clean oil to components such as the crankshaft, connecting rod, camshaft, turbocharger, and piston rings for lubrication, cooling, and cleaning purposes, thereby extending the service life of these components.

How to Know the Manufacturing Date of a Tire?

Tire manufacturing dates are marked on the outer side of the tire. Without needing to turn the tire inside out, you can find an 11-digit alphanumeric code immediately following the letters "DOT" on the tire's sidewall, which represents the tire's identification number or serial number. The last four digits of this code provide information about the production date. The tire production date code format is as follows: the first two digits indicate the week of the year it was manufactured, and the last two digits represent the year. There are 52 weeks in a year, so following this pattern, you can determine the exact production date of the tire. For example, if the last four digits of the DOT code are "4117," it means the tire was produced in the 41st week of 2017.
