Using a broker for vehicle inspection is unnecessary, and it does not guarantee that the car will not be damaged. 1. Definition of Vehicle Inspection: According to national regulations, motor vehicles must periodically pass tests for exhaust emissions, vehicle appearance, lights, brakes, chassis, etc., and obtain an inspection compliance certificate if there are no traffic violation records. All inspection dates are based on the registration date on the vehicle license. From the date of registration, motor vehicles must undergo safety technical inspections within the specified periods, commonly referred to as "annual inspection" or "annual review." 2. Purpose of Vehicle Inspection: Annual vehicle inspections help promptly eliminate potential safety hazards, encourage better vehicle maintenance, and reduce the occurrence of traffic accidents.

Using a middleman to pass the annual vehicle inspection might seem like a convenient and cost-saving shortcut, but it often leads to hidden damage to your car. The core purpose of inspection is to identify potential hazards—such as brake system failures or excessive emissions—through proper testing. If a middleman helps you cheat or skip tests at the inspection station using unethical methods, you might pass on paper, but critical issues could remain undetected and unfixed. The result? Hidden dangers persist in your vehicle, increasing risks on the road—like weakened brakes at high speeds or worsening engine problems, accelerating wear and tear, breakdowns, or even costly accident repairs. Not to mention the legal risks: getting caught could mean fines or license suspension, making things even more troublesome. A friend of mine tried this and later discovered severely worn tires had been overlooked, causing extensive damage to the chassis and doubling repair costs. So, skip the shortcuts—take your car to a legitimate inspection center, fix any issues properly, then retest. Your car will last longer, stay safer, and give you peace of mind.

I think relying on scalpers for vehicle inspections reflects a bit of laziness, but it doesn't mean it can protect your car from damage. My car has been running for several years, and I once tried using a scalper to pass the inspection, thinking it would save me time from queuing. It did pass, but not long after, I noticed strange noises from the brakes. Upon inspection, I found the brake pads were severely worn but had gone undetected—nearly causing an accident! The repair cost me over a thousand yuan. So, the scalper's goal is just to get your car through the inspection, not to genuinely help you identify and fix issues. They might bribe inspectors or forge reports to bypass strict tests, but the underlying problems in your car remain, leading to faster wear and tear—like substandard headlights making night driving unsafe or causing more damage in collisions. Official inspection stations conduct more comprehensive checks and will advise you to fix any issues before approval. I believe it's better not to seek temporary convenience, as it could end up costing more money and harming your car in the long run.

Why does Audi frequently run low on coolant?

There are several main reasons for excessive coolant consumption in vehicles: 1. Radiator damage or poor sealing of the upper and lower water chambers causing coolant leakage. 2. Loose connections at the overflow tank, water pump mating surfaces, or various coolant system pipe fittings leading to coolant leakage. 3. Apart from leakage issues, another possible cause is cylinder head gasket failure, excessive flatness deviation/warpage at the cylinder head and block mating surface, or loose cylinder head fasteners allowing high-temperature, high-pressure gases to enter the cooling system, resulting in rapid coolant consumption. Recommended solutions: 1. Regularly inspect all sealing points and connections, ensuring proper tightening where needed. 2. Never reuse sealing washers or tapes. These measures not only prevent excessive coolant consumption but also effectively avoid oil line leaks and transmission fluid leakage.
