For a 2014 car, before the expiration of the annual inspection validity period in 2020, it is necessary to undergo an online annual inspection in accordance with regulations. After passing the inspection, a motor vehicle inspection certificate valid for 2 years can be issued. During the annual inspection, it is important to ensure the vehicle's braking performance is good, and replace brake pads if necessary. Below is extended information: Relevant regulations: According to regulations, vehicles must undergo inspection at the 6th and 8th years. For private cars over 10 years old, the original inspection cycle still applies, i.e., once a year for cars between 10 and 15 years old, and once every six months for cars over 15 years old. The owner of the motor vehicle can apply for an inspection certificate at the vehicle registration office within 3 months before the expiration of the motor vehicle inspection validity period.

Is it okay to wear shorts while practicing driving?

It is not recommended to wear shorts while practicing driving. Here are the relevant details: 1. Summer driving practice: It is advisable to wear sweat-absorbing and loose-fitting clothes, which not only provide freedom of movement but also keep you cooler. Additionally, it is recommended to wear cloth shoes or flat shoes for better control over the accelerator, brake, and clutch pedals, making it easier to master the "key points" of pedal operation. 2. Important notes: Wearing slippers, high heels, or colored sunglasses is not allowed. While there is no explicit prohibition against wearing skirts, for safety reasons, it is not recommended to wear long skirts during the driving test. Just wear your usual practice driving attire and approach the test with the same mindset as your regular practice sessions to avoid excessive nervousness.

Why is the Audi air conditioning so loud?

Here are the reasons why the Audi air conditioning is loud: 1. Throttle valve dirty or stuck: After the air conditioning is turned on, the compressor will also start working. Since the compressor is driven by the engine, turning on the air conditioning will increase the engine load, which means the engine needs to increase the throttle opening to allow more air intake. When the throttle valve has carbon deposits or is stuck, it can cause engine vibration and abnormal noises. This becomes more noticeable after the air conditioning is turned on. 2. Abnormal noise from the air conditioning pump: There are two main reasons for abnormal noise from the air conditioning pump—the electromagnetic clutch and the bearings inside the air conditioning pump. Noise from the electromagnetic clutch is mainly caused by wear, leading to increased gaps, while noise from the air conditioning pump bearings is primarily due to a lack of lubricating oil. If these issues are not addressed promptly, they can cause the air conditioning pump to burn out, rendering it unable to perform cooling. 3. Improper tension of the compressor drive belt: If the drive belt is too loose, the electromagnetic clutch is prone to slipping; if the drive belt is too tight, the load on the electromagnetic clutch will increase. Improper tension of the drive belt can cause abnormal noise at best and damage the air conditioning compressor at worst.

What is the reason for the BMW X4 reversing camera not displaying?

The phenomenon of the reversing camera showing a black screen or not displaying is most likely due to poor line contact. It is necessary to promptly check the wiring and the connection points installed in the whole vehicle to see if there is any loose connection. If there is, it will naturally cause abnormalities in the reversing camera. The following is a related introduction to the reversing camera: 1. Concept: The reversing camera, also known as the parking assist system, or the reversing visual system, or the vehicle monitoring system, etc. English name: vehicle-backup-camera. This system is widely used in various large, medium, and small vehicles for reversing or driving safety assistance. 2. Reversing camera: Nowadays, the reversing camera is no longer a patent for mid-to-high-end cars. Some small cars and micro buses have also been equipped with reversing camera systems. For example, the high-end micro bus Junfeng CV03 is the first micro bus model equipped with a reversing camera, which also allows more commercial consumers to experience the convenience brought by technological configurations for reversing into parking spaces.

Where is the trunk opening button on an Audi?

Audi's trunk opening button is located below the driver's door armrest, above the door storage compartment. Here are some detailed introductions: 1. Flashlight: Some SUV and MPV models come with an original emergency flashlight. This hidden flashlight is usually fixed on the side wall or roof of the trunk, automatically charging, and can be used directly when taken down. 2. Small hooks: Hooks can be found in the trunks of most cars, though their positions and forms may vary. Despite being a common small item, they are highly practical. 3. Escape switch: This device is located at the lock core of the trunk lock. On the trunk lid, you will see a small cover in black or another color. Open this cover to find a white pull tab, or possibly a pull cord or crescent-shaped switch—different in form but the same in principle. Then pull this tab hard, and the trunk will open.

What's the Difference Between 2.5 and 2.0T?

Here are the differences between 2.5 and 2.0T: 1. Difference One: Displacement varies. (1) 'L' indicates the engine is an inline, naturally aspirated engine. (2) 2.0T denotes a displacement of 2.0 liters with turbocharging. (3) The role of turbocharging is primarily to increase the engine's air intake volume, thereby enhancing the engine's power and torque, making the car more powerful. 2. Difference Two: Power differs. (1) Compared to a 2.5 naturally aspirated engine, a 2.0 turbocharged engine delivers more immediate and aggressive acceleration. (2) For a 2.0T turbocharged engine, after boosting, the power output can reach levels comparable to a 2.8L or even higher engine. 3. Difference Three: Acceleration varies. (1) The turbo can reach its optimal state around 1500 to 2000 RPM, achieving peak torque. (2) For a naturally aspirated engine, reaching peak torque requires higher RPMs, typically between 5000-6000 or even higher.

Can You Open the Car Door Underwater?

If a vehicle accidentally falls into water, it is difficult to open the car door for a period of time after the vehicle is submerged. Here is relevant information: 1. Reason: When the vehicle first enters the water, there is a large amount of air inside the car, while the outside is water. The pressure difference between the inside and outside is significant, making it difficult to open the door directly, thus preventing a quick escape. Only after a substantial amount of water enters the car, reducing the air and equalizing the pressure difference, does it become easier to open the door. 2. Precautions: A car will not sink immediately after falling into water, allowing a window of one and a half minutes or even two minutes to escape through the door or window before sinking. Even if the car sinks to the bottom, there are ways to escape, as it may take up to half an hour for the cabin to fill with water. The exact time depends on whether the windows are open, the body is sealed, and the depth of the water. The deeper the car sinks, the greater the water pressure, and the faster the cabin fills with water.
