Imported cars do have a certificate of conformity, but depending on the dealer, some provide it with the vehicle while others may withhold it for an extended period. The certificate of conformity is a crucial document for vehicles, serving as a mandatory requirement for vehicle registration and licensing. Only vehicles with this certificate meet the national standards for motor vehicle equipment quality and related regulations, thereby qualifying for road registration. Other important vehicle documents include the purchase invoice, which serves as vital proof during the car-buying process and is also one of the required documents for vehicle registration. Therefore, when purchasing a car, it is essential to request the purchase invoice from the dealer and verify its validity.

What to Do When the Jerking Sensation in the Mazda Atenza Becomes Increasingly Stronger?

Mazda Atenza's increasingly strong jerking sensation is related to the engine: it may be determined by the ignition, intake, and fuel injectors working together to affect fuel combustion. Here are some explanations regarding the increasingly strong jerking sensation in the Mazda Atenza: 1. Causes: Whether the wrong fuel was added. Using gasoline with a lower octane rating may result in sluggish acceleration, leading to reduced engine power and increased fuel consumption. 2. Engine System: The engine oil system—the importance of engine oil cannot be overstated. It ensures adequate lubrication, reduces resonance, and enhances the smoothness of engine operation. Prolonged oil deficiency may, in mild cases, result in insufficient power and increased fuel consumption; in severe cases, it can cause piston impact on the valves, leading to mechanical damage to related components. Additionally, a faulty fuel pump or a clogged fuel filter can also reduce engine power.

What are the uses of car window tinting?

Car window tinting has several uses: 1. Heat and sun protection: Tinting can effectively block a large amount of heat generated by infrared rays; 2. UV protection: Medium and long-wave ultraviolet rays can penetrate thick glass, but applying tint film can block most UV rays; 3. Safety and explosion-proof: The base layer of the film is made of polyester, which is highly resistant to tearing and puncturing. Combined with the adhesive layer of the film, the strength of the glass after tinting can prevent injuries to passengers caused by accidental glass breakage; 4. Creating a private space: By choosing the appropriate type of film, the interior of the car becomes difficult to see from the outside while maintaining visibility from the inside, ensuring privacy and safety; 5. Reducing air conditioning consumption: Tinting compensates for the loss of cooling capacity in the air conditioning system, quickly lowering the interior temperature and achieving a certain degree of fuel savings.

Can the name on a motorcycle invoice be changed?

The current official special invoices for motor vehicles are all computer-printed and cannot have the name changed. Electronic printed invoices: If the name can be changed, it must not be an official invoice. The only way to change the name is to issue a new invoice, but the dealership would have to pay more taxes for this. So, if you are willing to bear some costs and the dealership agrees, they might issue a new invoice. However, this is unlikely because if the dealership is a general taxpayer, it also involves invoice management issues. If the issuer refuses to change the name: If they refuse to change it, there's no other way. If you need to register the vehicle but can't due to the name issue, you can ask the dealer to provide a certificate and then have it stamped by the local police station or community office as proof.
