Whether a broken steel belt in a tire has any impact depends on the location and the extent of the break. If the break is on the sidewall, it is not recommended to repair and continue using the tire. The rubber on the sidewall is thin, making it prone to blowouts from the damaged area, and it cannot be repaired because the repair process involves grinding away some of the rubber, making it even thinner. If the break is on the tread and exceeds 6 millimeters in length, it is also not recommended to repair and use the tire, as it is prone to blowouts from the damaged area, and the tire should be replaced. Below are the functions of car tires: 1. Supporting the entire weight of the vehicle: Car tires support the entire weight of the vehicle, bear the load of the car, and transmit forces and moments in other directions. 2. Improving vehicle performance: Car tires transmit traction and braking torque to ensure good adhesion between the wheels and the road surface, thereby enhancing the vehicle's power, braking, and off-road capabilities. They also work with the vehicle's suspension to cushion impacts during driving and dampen resulting vibrations. 3. Preventing early damage to vehicle components: Car tires protect vehicle components from severe vibrations and early damage, adapt to the vehicle's high-speed performance, reduce driving noise, and ensure safety, handling stability, comfort, and energy efficiency.

What to Do If the Duplicate of Vehicle License Is Lost?

If the duplicate of the vehicle license is lost, you need to go to the local vehicle management office or traffic police brigade to apply for a replacement. When applying for a replacement, you need to explain the relevant situation, the reason for the loss of the vehicle license, and the relevant location. Then, by bringing the original vehicle license and the owner's ID card, you can reapply for the duplicate of the motor vehicle license. The original and duplicate of the motor vehicle license are indispensable components, as the original records the basic information of the vehicle, while the duplicate includes the approved number of passengers, inspection date records, and vehicle details. Even if only the duplicate is lost, it still needs to be reapplied for.

Does the Volkswagen EA888 consume engine oil?

EA888 engines do consume engine oil, but not excessively. The term 'burning oil' is not accurate; it should more precisely be called 'oil consumption.' Volkswagen and Audi engines were once notorious for excessive oil consumption. These negative reports served as a warning to Audi and Volkswagen, prompting the latter to adopt a hybrid injection system in the third-generation EA888 engine. The functions of engine oil are as follows: 1. First, it's essential to understand that the engine is the 'heart' of a car, and engine oil is its 'blood.' When the engine is running, its internal components begin to move and rub against each other. However, high-frequency movement and friction, combined with high-temperature environments, necessitate the use of lubricating oil to maintain the engine over time. 2. Engine oil serves to lubricate and reduce friction among internal engine components, assist in cooling, seal against leaks, prevent rust and corrosion, and provide cushioning to absorb shocks.

What is the function of the PVC valve in a car?

Its main functions are: to guide the gases from the crankcase into the intake manifold through the PCV valve, and to allow a small amount of air to enter the intake manifold directly from the air filter via the PCV valve. This helps avoid issues such as icing at the throttle, incomplete combustion, and worsening emissions, while preventing blow-by gases from entering the atmosphere and preventing engine oil deterioration. Below is a related introduction: Definition: The PVC valve in a car is a component of the engine's crankcase forced ventilation system, consisting of a valve body, valve, valve cover, and spring. Effects of a faulty car PVC valve on the vehicle: The engine may experience shaking during operation, unstable idle speed, and large amounts of white smoke from the exhaust pipe. Since it is located inside the crankcase, a faulty PVC valve may lead to internal corrosion, accelerated wear, and further shortening of the engine's lifespan.
