Yes, you can go to a car beauty shop to check the extent of the paint scratches. Minor scratches can be polished out, while severe scratches that expose the primer will require repainting. Here are the relevant details: 1. Minor scratches: Every car has minor scratches, which typically only damage the clear coat without reaching the underlying primer. For such scratches, owners can gently rub them with car wax or simply take the car to a beauty shop for polishing. 2. Small scratches exposing the primer: This is the most common scenario. Minor scrapes are inevitable while driving, especially on the left and right sides of the front and rear bumpers during turns or reversing. Owners can use a touch-up pen to repair these scratches. While a touch-up pen won't provide as smooth a finish as professional repainting, it can effectively conceal the damage and make it less noticeable.

Does the buyer need to be present in person for vehicle file transfer in another location?

For vehicle file transfer in another location, the buyer does not need to be present in person and can authorize someone else to handle the procedure. However, the original owner must be present on-site. Without the original owner's relevant identification documents, the vehicle file transfer procedure cannot be processed. Below is relevant information about vehicle file transfer in another location: 1. File transfer: The vehicle must be driven to the site, and relevant materials for the vehicle file transfer must be brought along to complete the procedure. Vehicle file transfer refers to the process of transferring the vehicle's file from the local vehicle management office during a used car transaction, which can be relocated to a specified new registration area and owner. Once specified, it is difficult to change. Vehicle ownership transfer and file transfer are procedures specifically for used cars and are only required for used car transactions. 2. Registration deadline: For vehicle ownership transfer and file transfer, the original owner must be present on-site. Without the original owner's relevant identification documents, the vehicle file transfer procedure cannot be processed. Both the buyer and seller's ID cards, vehicle license, vehicle registration certificate, and the vehicle itself must be brought to the vehicle management office to complete the file transfer procedure. Normally, the file bag will indicate a registration deadline, usually two weeks or one month. The buyer must complete the relevant procedures at the vehicle management office within this deadline; otherwise, they will need to return to the original vehicle management office to reapply for file transfer.

What is the Difference Between New Energy Jing AA and Jing AD?

The difference between new energy Jing AA and Jing AD lies in their respective meanings. Below are the specific details of each: 1. Jing AD is the special license plate for new energy vehicles in Beijing: On December 28, 2017, Beijing officially introduced a 6-digit special license plate for new energy vehicles, commonly known as the "green plate." The number of digits in the special license plate for new energy vehicles was increased from 5 to 6. This expansion increased the capacity of license plate numbers and enriched the available resources. The new energy vehicle license plates incorporate anti-counterfeiting technologies such as QR codes, anti-counterfeiting watermark marks, and laser patterns. Traffic police can simply scan the QR code in the upper left corner of the license plate with an instrument to obtain information about the production location and personnel of the plate. 2. Jing AA new energy license plate: It represents the special models used by the Shouqi State Guest Team. Previously, Jing A license plates were used by government agencies. To reflect the concept of green environmental protection, the new energy license plates primarily use green as the main color, with added special identifiers and new anti-counterfeiting technologies and manufacturing processes. This not only achieves the goal of differentiated management and easy identification but also highlights the characteristics of new energy and technological innovation. In China, the registration code for motor vehicles consists of 2 characters, composed of Chinese characters and English letters. The Chinese characters represent the abbreviations of provinces, autonomous regions, and municipalities directly under the central government, while the English letters denote the code of the vehicle management office. The license plate number consists of 6 characters, which can be Arabic numerals or a combination of Arabic numerals and English letters.

How Long Can a New Energy Vehicle Generally Last?

New energy vehicles can generally last for about 10 years. The lifespan of a new energy vehicle is directly related to the service life of its battery. The maintenance of new energy vehicle batteries is as follows: 1. Avoid aggressive acceleration while driving: Sudden acceleration during startup, carrying passengers, or going uphill causes the battery to discharge with high current, which can easily lead to the formation of lead sulfate crystals, damaging the physical properties of the battery plates and resulting in a sudden drop in speed and performance. 2. Prevent the vehicle from being exposed to extreme heat or cold: If the vehicle is parked under direct sunlight for a long time, the high temperature can increase the internal pressure of the battery, leading to water loss, reduced battery activity, and accelerated aging of the plates. If parked in extremely cold temperatures for an extended period, the battery's range will drop sharply, and its performance will be adversely affected. 3. Master the correct charging time: Pay attention to the duration and degree of charging. Both undercharging and over-discharging should be avoided. Generally, the battery charging time is about 8-10 hours. Avoid excessively long charging times, as overcharging can shorten the battery's lifespan. 4. Develop a good habit of regular inspections: While using a new energy vehicle, it is essential to develop a routine of regular checks. If you notice a sudden drop in the driving range during use, it may indicate a battery issue. In such cases, promptly visit a car repair shop to avoid further battery degradation. 5. Keep the battery fully charged when idle: If the vehicle needs to be parked for an extended period, ensure the battery retains some charge. A battery left in a discharged state for too long is prone to sulfation, where salt-like crystals form on the plates, causing significant harm to the battery.

What are the body dimensions of the new Santana?

The length of the new Santana refers to the distance between two vertical lines perpendicular to the vehicle's longitudinal symmetry plane and respectively touching the outermost protruding parts at the front and rear of the car; the width refers to the distance between two planes parallel to the vehicle's longitudinal symmetry plane and respectively touching the outermost rigid fixed protruding parts on both sides of the vehicle; the height refers to the distance between the highest point of the vehicle and the vehicle's supporting plane. The new Santana is equipped with a 1.5-liter naturally aspirated engine with the model code EA211-DLF across the entire lineup. This engine has a maximum power of 82kW, a maximum torque of 145 Nm, a maximum power speed of 6100 rpm, and a maximum torque speed of 4000 rpm. There are national regulations regarding vehicle dimensions. According to the national standard "GB1589-89" issued, the total width of a vehicle does not include side mirrors. The limitation on vehicle width is to provide sufficient lateral clearance for overtaking between adjacent lanes. This means that in the national standard, the significance of vehicle width data lies in providing enough space during overtaking, preventing accidents due to excessive width or situations where road markings are narrower than the vehicle's width. Additionally, national regulations stipulate that the total width of a vehicle must not exceed 2.5m to meet the usage requirements of relevant public roads.

What does the fault code indicating catalytic converter aging mean?

The faults of the catalytic converter generally include clogging, cracking, overheating damage, and the fault code "low catalytic converter efficiency," commonly referred to as catalytic converter aging. The low conversion efficiency of the catalytic converter is mainly due to the catalyst being covered by heavy metals and impurities in the exhaust, which primarily come from poor-quality fuel and engine oil participating in combustion, such as leaded gasoline or engine oil additives containing heavy metals. Here is more information about the catalytic converter: 1. The catalytic converter refers to the device that converts harmful gases like CO, HC, and NOx in vehicle exhaust into harmless carbon dioxide, water, and nitrogen through oxidation and reduction reactions. It mainly uses a catalytic converter, whose core component is a porous ceramic material installed in a specially designed exhaust pipe. It is called a "carrier" because it does not participate in the catalytic reaction itself but is coated with precious metals like platinum, rhodium, palladium, and rare earth coatings. It is the most important external purification device installed in the vehicle's exhaust system. 2. The working principle of the catalytic converter is: when high-temperature vehicle exhaust passes through the purification device, the catalyst in the catalytic converter enhances the activity of CO, hydrocarbons, and NOx, promoting certain oxidation-reduction chemical reactions. Among them, CO oxidizes at high temperatures to form colorless, non-toxic carbon dioxide gas; hydrocarbons oxidize at high temperatures to form water (H2O) and carbon dioxide; and NOx is reduced to nitrogen and oxygen. These three harmful gases are transformed into harmless gases, thereby purifying the vehicle exhaust. The prerequisite is that there is still oxygen available, and the air-fuel ratio must be reasonable.
