Prolonged use of adhesive remover can damage car paint. Methods to remove adhesive without harming the paint: 1. Alcohol: Soak a soft cloth with sufficient 95% alcohol and gently wipe the adhesive area until it softens and detaches. Medical alcohol does not harm plastic parts or the car paint surface. 2. Adhesive Cleaner: Purchase a specialized adhesive cleaner for a simple and convenient solution that effectively removes tape residue. First, wipe with water, then use a towel dipped in adhesive remover to clean the adhesive marks. Avoid spraying directly on the car paint. 3. Towel: A more cost-effective method is to repeatedly wipe the area with a towel soaked in hot water. Although this cleaning method takes a bit more time, the results are also excellent.

What's the Deal with Second-hand Cars That Cannot Be Transferred?

At this time, there are still unresolved issues with the vehicle, such as second-hand cars still under mortgage, those that have been modified or altered without authorization, including changes to cargo weight and passenger capacity, and second-hand cars with unresolved traffic violations or accidents that cannot be transferred. Below are specific details: 1. Other situations where transfer is not possible: For example, second-hand cars being moved in or out that do not meet local standards cannot be transferred. 2. Corresponding risks: The ownership of the vehicle does not belong to you, meaning the money spent is essentially wasted. Without the transfer, insurance cannot be obtained, and if there is no third-party liability insurance, any accidents causing injury to a third party would require you to pay the full compensation.

What Causes the Door Lock to Repeatedly Pop Open Automatically?

There are several reasons why a car door lock may repeatedly pop open automatically: 1. Remote signal interference: In such cases, it is advisable to visit a repair shop for inspection and repair. Additionally, some vehicles with anti-explosion sun films applied to the front windshield may experience unresponsive remote door locks when attempting to unlock the car from the front. This occurs because the anti-explosion sun film can partially block the remote signal. 2. Strong magnetic field signals: When using smart remote keys, avoid exposure to strong magnetic fields, such as high-voltage power lines or transmission towers. Parking in areas with strong magnetic fields should be avoided, as smart keys operate using low-intensity radio waves and may malfunction under magnetic interference. 3. Poor battery contact: Avoid dropping or throwing the smart key, as although most smart key casings are durable, frequent impacts can lead to poor internal battery contact.

Why does a small car fail the annual inspection due to excessive exhaust emissions?

The reasons why a small car fails the annual inspection due to excessive exhaust emissions are as follows: 1. Problems with the three-way catalytic converter and oxygen sensor: During vehicle operation, carbon deposits often form due to incomplete combustion of the engine's air-fuel mixture. These deposits can adhere to the interior of the three-way catalytic converter and the surface of the oxygen sensor, causing blockages and leading to excessive exhaust emissions. 2. Spark plug issues: When spark plugs age or become damaged, their ignition capability decreases, preventing the air-fuel mixture from burning completely and resulting in excessive HC content in the exhaust. Regular maintenance of spark plugs can restore their activity through cleaning with sandpaper or a cleaner. If they are severely aged, they should be replaced promptly. 3. Engine problems: After cleaning the engine, regular maintenance is essential. Periodically driving at high speeds or using fuel additives to clean carbon deposits can help avoid failing the annual inspection again due to excessive exhaust emissions.
