Vehicle inspection cannot be conducted on weekends. According to state regulations, inspection institutions operate only on regular workdays from 9:00 AM to 5:00 PM. They are closed on Saturdays, Sundays, and public holidays. Additional information regarding vehicle inspection is as follows: Online Appointment: Currently, both new and used vehicles can schedule inspections online. Before making an appointment, ensure all traffic violations have been resolved. Additionally, vehicles can only be scheduled for inspection within 3 months prior to the expiration of their current inspection validity. The appointment is valid for one week starting from the day after the application date. If unable to attend, cancel the appointment in advance. Two consecutive no-shows will result in being blacklisted from the appointment system, losing access to the inspection appointment service. To schedule an appointment, vehicle owners must log in to the official website of the Municipal Traffic Management Bureau, click on the "Online Vehicle Inspection" section, enter the license plate and engine number, select the inspection station and appointment time, and provide a mobile phone number. The system will then send an SMS containing an appointment code. Upon arrival at the inspection station, owners can drive to the appointment lane, verify the appointment code at the window, and receive an inspection queue number.

I've been driving for many years and have encountered issues with vehicle inspection on Sundays. Generally, most inspection stations are closed on Sundays because they operate on weekdays and take weekends off. Last time, my inspection deadline fell on a Sunday, and when I went to the station, it was closed. I later called the local DMV and confirmed they were open from Monday to Saturday. I recommend checking in advance, for example, by searching for the "Local Traffic Management Service Platform" on WeChat and entering your license plate number to view the station's schedule. Don't delay the inspection, or you might face fines and affect your annual inspection record. Regular maintenance, especially for lights and emissions, is crucial. Plan your inspection two weeks ahead to avoid peak times, and remember, safe driving is the top priority.

Bro, let me share some insights about vehicle inspection. If you're planning to go for an inspection on Sunday, it might be tough since most inspection stations are closed then. My neighbor just went through this—he searched for a long time before finding one open on Saturday, and Sundays are a no-go. You should check nearby inspection stations on Amap or Baidu Maps in advance to confirm their business hours. If you accidentally exceed the deadline, you might face point deductions and issues with insurance claims. I recommend going early on Monday when it's less crowded, and don't forget to bring all required documents, including a copy of your vehicle license. Also, pay attention to your braking system during daily driving to ensure a smooth inspection—saving both hassle and money.

Can I get my car inspected on Sunday? There's basically no chance, as most inspection stations are closed on Sundays. I'm a new car owner, and last time I got my inspection done on a Saturday. If you insist on waiting until Sunday and don't get it done, you might face fines and penalty points for overdue inspection. It's convenient and safe to check the schedule using mobile apps like "Traffic Management 12123". Keep your lights and tires in good condition to avoid any delays.

Honey, vehicle inspections usually can't be done on Sundays. Most inspection stations are closed on Sundays. My husband just had his car inspected last week, and he checked online that they're open Monday to Saturday. Make an appointment early to avoid overdue inspection, otherwise the insurance won't cover accidents. When driving normally, check your brakes and tire pressure for safety.

Can the battery be charged directly in the car?

It is possible to charge the battery directly in the car. When starting the car, the starter requires a large current, which a regular charger cannot provide. If the battery is dead, the car won't start. The principle of charging is that the voltage must be about 20% higher than the battery's voltage to charge it effectively. Too high a voltage can damage the battery, while too low a voltage won't charge it. Uses of car batteries: 1. For starting and lighting in cars, motorcycles, tractors, diesel engines, etc.; 2. As backup power for protection and automatic control in communications, power plants, and computer systems; 3. As power sources for various battery-powered vehicles, forklifts, and loaders; 4. For starting and lighting power in diesel locomotives, electric locomotives, and passenger trains.

What are the differences between water-based and oil-based car paints?

Different raw materials for oil-based and water-based paints: Oil-based paints primarily use drying oil as the main raw material. Water-based paints are mainly composed of water, containing no toxic substances such as benzene, formaldehyde, or xylene, and no organic solvents, hence referred to as coatings. 2. Different production methods for oil-based and water-based paints: Water-based paints use water as a diluent, with no pungent odor, which gives people a special preference for them. The production process of oil-based paints is more complex, requiring multiple steps and equipment for processing, whereas water-based paints involve significantly fewer production steps compared to oil-based paints. 3. Different hazards of oil-based and water-based paints: Generally, when oil-based paints are used for painting, the residual odor and hazards persist for a relatively long time. In contrast, water-based paints, compared to oil-based paints, are characterized by being non-hazardous and free from so-called dilution volatilization.

What Causes the Whistling Sound When Accelerating?

Possible reasons for the whistling sound when accelerating: 1. Insufficient engine oil level: This reduces the oil pump's output or prevents oil from being pumped due to air intake, leading to a drop in oil pressure. 2. Overheating engine: This can thin the oil, causing it to leak excessively through the clearances and resulting in decreased oil pressure. 3. Damaged or excessively worn oil pump components, or excessive clearance due to assembly issues: This can cause the oil pump to fail to deliver oil or deliver insufficient oil. 4. Improper clearance between the crankshaft and bearings (main or connecting rod bearings): Too tight a fit increases oil pressure, while too loose a fit decreases it. 5. Clogged oil filter or oil pickup screen can also reduce oil pressure. 6. Faulty or malfunctioning pressure relief valve.

Is 11 liters per 100 kilometers considered high fuel consumption?

Under normal circumstances, the fuel consumption for compact cars is between 6-10 liters per 100 kilometers, while mid-size cars consume 8-12 liters per 100 kilometers, and large cars consume 12-18 liters per 100 kilometers. Therefore, if it's an SUV or a high-displacement model, this falls within the normal range. However, if it's a compact family car or a small-displacement model, this would be considered abnormally high fuel consumption. Reasons for high fuel consumption: 1. The car is still in the break-in period: During the break-in process, friction between parts is greater, requiring more energy and thus consuming more fuel; 2. Insufficient tire pressure: This increases fuel consumption, and if the tires are severely worn, frequent slipping can occur, which also increases fuel consumption; 3. When there is significant engine carbon buildup in a short period, it can also lead to higher vehicle fuel consumption.

Can I Get a New Tire Replacement if It Bulges Within a Month of Purchase?

New car tire bulging within a month can be replaced. Tire bulge caused by impact or compression: The most common scenario is when the car hits a curb at high speed or at an inappropriate angle. In such cases, there are usually signs of impact, such as surface scratches or white impact marks inside the bulged area of the tire. Careful inspection will reveal subtle differences. Tire quality issues: One possibility is that the tire's internal cord wires have quality defects leading to insufficient local strength; another is poor handling of the cord ply joints. Bulges caused by quality issues show no marks on the tire's surface or inside at the bulged area. Insufficient tire structural strength: The tire market is highly competitive. Low-cost tires may reduce the number of cord or nylon layers or use inferior cord plies to cut costs, compromising the tire's strength. Even minor impacts can cause bulging.

Is 7.5L/100km Considered High Fuel Consumption?

If road conditions are good without congestion, for small 1.3L models, this would be considered relatively high fuel consumption. For compact models between 1.3L to 1.6L, it falls into the medium range and is within normal fuel consumption levels. As for mid-size vehicles or SUVs with 1.6-2.0L engines, this would be considered low fuel consumption. Relevant information about vehicle fuel consumption is as follows: 1. Factors affecting vehicle fuel consumption: The level of vehicle fuel consumption depends not only on the engine displacement, transmission type, and vehicle size, but also on the driver's habits and road conditions. 2. Assessing fuel consumption from practical situations: If frequently driving on highways or elevated roads, the vehicle's fuel consumption will be relatively low, as the roads are more open and the average driving speed is higher.
