Adding a spoiler to a car will prevent it from passing the annual inspection. If the vehicle's appearance does not match the photo on the registration certificate, the car cannot pass the inspection normally. Below are the relevant regulations regarding installing spoilers on cars: 1. According to the 'Motor Vehicle Registration Regulations', if a registered motor vehicle undergoes changes in body color, model, performance, purpose, or structure, or if the frame, body, or engine is replaced, the owner must apply for a modification registration with the local vehicle management office. Installing a spoiler is generally not allowed in principle. 2. After modifying a car, it is necessary to update the registration certificate photo at the local traffic management office. Failure to do so promptly may result in penalties from traffic police. Modifications can also affect the annual inspection and may easily lead to traffic accidents, posing certain safety hazards. Therefore, modifying a car is not recommended.

Is the Auto Start-Stop Light On Indicating Activation or Deactivation?

Auto Start-Stop light on indicates deactivation. When the vehicle is initially started, the Auto Start-Stop system defaults to the activated state, and the light remains off. If the Auto Start-Stop is turned off, there will be a prompt on the dashboard: a yellow light illuminates, with a circular A symbol accompanied by the letters OFF below, indicating the Auto Start-Stop is deactivated. The display may vary depending on the vehicle model; some models show a circular A with a diagonal slash. The working principle of Auto Start-Stop involves embedding an enhanced motor with idle start-stop functionality into a traditional engine. This allows the engine to completely shut off and cease operation when the vehicle meets the conditions for idling stop. When the vehicle needs to start moving again, the idle start-stop motor system quickly responds to the driver's start command, rapidly restarting the engine.

What is the difference between manual transmission and automatic transmission cars?

Manual transmission and automatic transmission cars differ mainly in the complexity of operation: Manual transmission cars rely primarily on the driver manually operating the clutch to change gears, which is more cumbersome and requires higher driving skills, resulting in greater physical exertion and mental effort; Automatic transmission cars utilize the hydraulic torque converter's automatic shifting principle to complete gear changes, allowing beginners with limited automotive knowledge to quickly adapt, with significantly reduced physical and mental workload. The gear positions of an automatic transmission car include: 1. P (Parking) gear: When the gear lever is in this position, the drive wheels are mechanically locked, and the engine can be started; 2. R (Reverse) gear: Simply press the unlock button on the gear lever without needing to depress the brake pedal.
