4S shops have dry ice cleaning machines, which are currently very rapidly developing cleaning equipment in the cleaning industry. In the automotive cleaning sector, many car service providers and production factories are equipped with dry ice cleaning machines to clean cars, making it very easy to clean even the most troublesome engine parts. Here are the specific details: 1. Dry ice cleaning: Dry ice cleaning of engine carbon deposits is a relatively safe cleaning technology. This is because dry ice cleaning can thoroughly clean engine carbon deposits without damaging the engine or disassembling it. The process involves using compressed gas to spray dry ice particles onto the engine surface. Upon contact, the physical low-temperature properties of dry ice produce a freezing effect, solidifying the carbon deposits, while the forced gas impacts the carbon deposits from above. Cleaning engine carbon deposits is a common issue faced by all car owners. Dry ice cleaning does not require rapid engine disassembly, saving both time and costs. Cleaning the throttle and cylinders with dry ice takes about 2 minutes, and dry ice cleaning has no abrasive effect on metal or plastic components. 2. After dry ice cleaning of engine carbon deposits: You can clearly feel an increase in engine power and a decrease in fuel consumption, thereby solving engine vibration issues and addressing problems of increased fuel consumption.

What to Bring for the Written Test (Subject 1)?

For the test, you only need to bring your ID card. The admission ticket and other documents are handled by the driving school, which will distribute them during the test. Electronic IDs are not accepted for the test. If you don't have an ID card, you can apply for a temporary ID, which holds the same validity as a regular ID card. According to the "Regulations on the Application and Use of Motor Vehicle Driver's Licenses," you can take the Subject 1 test twice on the same day. If you fail the first attempt, you can retake it for free. If you fail the second attempt, the Subject 1 test will be terminated, and you can only reschedule after ten days. The Subject 1 test consists of 100 questions, including single-choice and true/false questions, each worth 1 point, totaling 100 points. If you answer 11 questions incorrectly during the test, the system will automatically submit the paper and end the test. The Subject 1 test is computer-based and lasts 45 minutes. Subject 1 test content includes: driver's license and motor vehicle management regulations; road traffic conditions and rules; traffic safety violations and penalties; road traffic accident handling regulations; basic knowledge of motor vehicles; local regulations; knowledge of braking systems and safety devices for large and medium-sized passenger and freight vehicles; specialized knowledge for wheeled self-propelled machinery, trams, and trolleybuses. Subject 1 test precautions: Candidates should dress appropriately—no slippers allowed. Electronic devices and bags are prohibited in the test room. Bring your ID card and queue to enter the waiting hall. Observe the instructions and procedures on the large screen and store personal belongings in lockers before entering the test room. After entering, verify your identity at the assigned station, locate your seat, and begin the test. Ensure the camera is aligned with you and follow test discipline. If you fail the first attempt, you can retake it the same day. If you fail again, you must pay to reschedule. After completion, queue to collect and sign your score report—unsigned reports are invalid. There is no limit to the number of Subject 1 test reservations. Each subject can be taken once, with one retake if failed. If you skip the retake or fail it, the test ends, and you must reschedule. For Subject 2 and Subject 3, there are only five attempts. These tests can be rescheduled after ten days. If you fail the Subject 3 safety and civilized driving knowledge test, your passed road driving skills test results remain valid. The driving test consists of three subjects: Subject 1, Subject 2, and Subject 3. Subject 1 covers traffic safety laws, regulations, and related knowledge. Subject 2 is the field driving skills test. Subject 3 includes two parts: road driving skills and safety and civilized driving knowledge. The safety and civilized driving knowledge test is conducted after Subject 3, so it is commonly referred to as Subject 4, though this term is not officially recognized (as per the Ministry of Public Security Order No. 123). The test duration is 45 minutes.
