Applying a wrap film to the roof of a motor vehicle does not affect the annual inspection, but the color must match the body color or be a pure black roof wrap. Below is more information about vehicle wraps: 1. It can provide certain protection to the original car paint, especially color-changing films that use imported adhesive, which offer excellent protection for the original paint. Even when removed, there will be no difficult-to-clean residue. 2. Unlike spray painting, it does not damage or thicken the original car paint, which is detrimental to the protection and use of the original paint. 3. If a color-changing film is applied to a new car, it can be removed by the 6th year when the vehicle undergoes its annual inspection, avoiding the hassle of repainting. 4. If the color-changing area exceeds 30% of the vehicle's surface, it is necessary to register the change with the vehicle management office or replace the vehicle license to avoid issues during traffic police inspections.

Why is the brake suddenly hard to press and the car won't start?

When the car won't start, it means the engine cannot be ignited, which results in the brake pedal being difficult to press. This is most likely due to a leak in the vehicle's brake booster pump or a component malfunction, and it is necessary to promptly visit a professional repair shop for inspection and maintenance. There are two key techniques for braking: 1. When there is sufficient braking distance, slowly and continuously press the brake pedal to decelerate evenly. As the car is about to come to a stop, gradually release the brake pedal until it is fully lifted when the car is completely stationary. 2. When following another vehicle, ensure a safe distance from the car in front. The key braking technique here is to press the brake pedal gently, maintain braking force, and then adjust the pressure based on the speed of the car in front.

How many hours of continuous driving require a break?

Continuous driving for 4 hours requires at least a 20-minute break. Fatigue driving is a leading factor in causing frequent accidents. Preventing driving fatigue is the most effective way to ensure road safety. It is better to take preventive measures than to improve after already feeling fatigued. The following measures can be taken to prevent driving fatigue: 1. Ensure sufficient sleep time and good sleep quality. 2. Develop good eating habits to improve physical fitness. 3. Scientifically arrange driving time and pay attention to the balance between work and rest. Plan driving time and schedules scientifically and reasonably, and take breaks during the journey; continuous driving time should not exceed 4 hours, and after 4 hours of continuous driving, a break of at least 20 minutes is mandatory; for long nighttime driving, two people should take turns driving and resting alternately, with each person driving for 2 to 4 hours, and try to avoid driving late at night. 4. Pay attention to arranging rest periods reasonably. Avoid maintaining a fixed posture for a long time while driving; adjust the sitting posture of fatigued body parts and take deep breaths periodically to promote blood circulation; it is best to stop and take a break after driving for a while, get out of the car to stretch the waist and legs, and relax the whole body to prevent driving fatigue.

What Causes Coolant to Overflow from the Expansion Tank Cap?

Overfilled coolant: If the coolant exceeds the marked line on the reservoir, it may overflow during driving. Thermostat malfunction: A faulty thermostat can cause the engine temperature to rise excessively. High temperatures prevent the coolant from circulating properly through the engine's cooling passages (large circulation), leading to small circulation within the radiator and resulting in overflow. Coolant is a crucial consumable in the cooling system, which is an essential component of a vehicle. It helps maintain the engine's stable power output. Many drivers have encountered coolant overflowing from the reservoir, and the reasons include the following three points: 1. Check if the reservoir cap is damaged. High temperatures inside the reservoir can cause coolant to leak if the cap is damaged. 2. Overfilled coolant: If the coolant level exceeds the marked line on the reservoir, it may overflow during driving. If the coolant level is appropriate, overflow will not occur. 3. Thermostat malfunction: A faulty thermostat can cause the engine temperature to rise excessively. High temperatures prevent the coolant from circulating properly through the engine's cooling passages (large circulation), leading to small circulation within the radiator and resulting in overflow.

What is the charging voltage of a car battery?

Car battery charging voltage is 12V or 24V. Typically, gasoline-powered cars commonly use 12V batteries. Multi-cylinder diesel engines and single-cylinder diesel engines above 25 horsepower usually adopt 24V battery power supply (two batteries of the same capacity connected in parallel). Below is more information about car batteries: 1. Car batteries are generally lead-acid batteries, divided into maintenance and maintenance-free types. Currently, most vehicles use maintenance-free batteries that do not require adding electrolyte. 2. Battery voltage is an important indicator for measuring normal battery operation, generally categorized into resting voltage and starting voltage. Resting voltage refers to the battery voltage when the engine is off, typically ranging from 11.8V to 12.8V. 3. The service life of a battery is generally 1 to 8 years. Even if the starting voltage is normal, if there is leakage, bulging, or corrosion of battery terminals, it should be replaced immediately.

What is the Scrap Life of a Passenger Car?

For household 5-seat sedans and 7-seat SUVs, non-commercial small and mini vehicles have no usage lifespan. When the normal mileage reaches 600,000 kilometers, the state will guide them to be scrapped. In addition to the above-mentioned vehicles, small and mini non-commercial passenger vehicles, large non-commercial sedans, and wheeled special machinery vehicles also have no usage lifespan restrictions. Commercial vehicles have scrap lifespans, as follows: Small and mini taxi passenger vehicles have a scrap lifespan of 8 years, medium taxi passenger vehicles have a scrap lifespan of 10 years, and large taxi passenger vehicles have a scrap lifespan of 12 years. Bus passenger vehicles have a scrap lifespan of 13 years, other small and mini commercial passenger vehicles have a scrap lifespan of 10 years, and large and medium commercial passenger vehicles have a scrap lifespan of 15 years. Mini commercial trucks have a scrap lifespan of 8 years, light and large commercial trucks have a scrap lifespan of 10 years. The vehicle scrapping process is as follows: The car owner applying for scrapping and renewal must fill out an "Application Form for Vehicle Modification, Transfer, Alteration, Suspension, or Scrapping" and stamp it with the owner's seal. The registration office will accept the application and issue a "Vehicle Scrapping Notice" for vehicles that have reached the scrap lifespan. For vehicles that have not reached the scrap lifespan, the vehicle inspection office will determine if they meet the scrapping standards and issue a "Vehicle Scrapping Notice". The owner can choose a qualified recycling company to dismantle the vehicle with the "Notice". The recycling company will dismantle and photograph the vehicle after verifying the "Notice". The engine must be separated from the vehicle, the engine block must be broken, and the frame (chassis) must be cut. The owner must submit the "Modification Form", "XX Province Vehicle Renewal Technical Appraisal Form", "Scrapped Vehicle Recycling Certificate", and vehicle dismantling photos to the vehicle inspection office for verification and signature. The license plates will be reclaimed, and the scrapping registration will be processed according to regulations. Special Notes: According to Article 30 of the "Motor Vehicle Registration Regulations", if the vehicle cannot be driven back to the registration location due to damage, the owner can sell the scrapped vehicle to a local motor vehicle recycling company. Commercial vehicles converted to non-commercial use must be scrapped according to the original commercial vehicle's scrap lifespan. According to Article 43 of the "Motor Vehicle Registration Regulations", after completing the vehicle transfer or cancellation registration, the original owner can apply to the vehicle management office to use the original license plate number when registering a new vehicle. The application must meet the following conditions: (1) submitted within six months after the transfer or cancellation registration; (2) the owner must have owned the original vehicle for more than three years.
