Changing the color of calipers requires applying for modification registration of the motor vehicle. According to the "Road Traffic Safety Law," the following documents must be submitted: Original "Motor Vehicle Modification Registration Application Form." Original and photocopy of the identity documents of the motor vehicle owner and agent. Original motor vehicle registration certificate. Original motor vehicle license. Precautions for painting car calipers: The paint used must be heat-resistant. There are no additional methods for cleaning, as many caliper surfaces are not smooth. After cleaning as thoroughly as possible, the paint can be applied. However, the durability will not be long, as there are no protective measures, and the paint may be chipped by small stones, gravel, or brake dust. The brake booster and master cylinder are connected in series. Typically, it appears as a large black cylindrical or conical container. It is also a piston mechanism, with a diaphragm dividing the booster into two chambers. One side is connected to the engine intake pipe, while the other side is exposed to the outside atmosphere. Since the engine creates a vacuum on one side of the booster during operation, a significant pressure difference is generated across the diaphragm. This, combined with the pressure applied by the driver, pushes against the master cylinder to produce substantial braking force. Additionally, according to Article 10 of the "Motor Vehicle Registration Regulations," registered motor vehicles must apply for modification registration under the following circumstances: Change of body color. Replacement of the engine. Replacement of the body or frame. Replacement of the entire vehicle due to quality issues. Change of usage nature, such as converting a commercial vehicle to non-commercial or vice versa. Change of the motor vehicle owner's residence into or out of the jurisdiction of the vehicle management office. Furthermore, according to Article 15 of the "Road Traffic Safety Law of the People's Republic of China": Police cars, fire trucks, ambulances, and engineering rescue vehicles must be painted with designated patterns and equipped with alarms and warning lights as required. Other motor vehicles are prohibited from using patterns, alarms, or warning lights that are exclusive to or resemble those of the aforementioned vehicles.

Why does the Mercedes-Benz make a loud noise when starting?

Mercedes-Benz makes a loud noise during cold starts because the arrangement of the exhaust manifold places the catalytic converter too far back. The catalytic converter must reach a certain temperature to effectively filter exhaust gases. Therefore, to quickly heat up the catalytic converter, the exhaust valve closure is intentionally delayed during cold starts, causing the air-fuel mixture to enter the exhaust manifold and combust, resulting in the loud noise during cold starts. Here is some related information: History of Mercedes-Benz: Mercedes-Benz was founded in 1926 by Karl Benz and Gottlieb Daimler. Its predecessors were the Benz & Cie. and Daimler-Motoren-Gesellschaft, established in 1886. The two companies merged in 1926 to form Daimler-Benz AG. Mercedes-Benz Logo: The Mercedes-Benz logo is a three-pointed star, symbolizing the ambition to dominate land, sea, and air. This emblem was created after the merger of Daimler and Benz. The original Daimler logo featured a three-pointed star, while the Benz logo had the word "BENZ" inside a double circle. After the merger, the Daimler-Benz logo became a three-pointed star inside a single circle. Making the three-pointed star shine globally has been Mercedes-Benz's dream for over a century and remains its relentless pursuit.

What is the reason for the tire pressure warning in the Mercedes GLB?

Mercedes GLB displays a tire pressure warning because the pressure in one of the tires is either too low or too high, but has not yet reached the warning threshold. It is necessary to check the tire pressure. Tire Pressure Monitoring: Tire pressure monitoring involves real-time automatic monitoring of tire pressure during vehicle operation, alerting the driver in case of tire leakage or low pressure to ensure driving safety. Common tire pressure monitoring methods include: Direct Tire Pressure Monitoring: Direct tire pressure monitoring devices use pressure sensors installed in each tire to directly measure tire pressure. The pressure information is transmitted wirelessly from inside the tire to a central receiver module, which then displays the pressure data for each tire. The system automatically alerts the driver if the tire pressure is too low or if there is a leak. Indirect Tire Pressure Monitoring: When the pressure in a tire decreases, the vehicle's weight causes the rolling radius of that wheel to become smaller, resulting in a faster rotation speed compared to the other wheels. By comparing the differences in rotation speeds between the tires, the system monitors tire pressure. Indirect tire pressure warning systems essentially rely on calculating the rolling radius of the tires to monitor pressure. Introduction to Tire Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS): It combines the advantages of both systems mentioned above. Direct sensors are installed in two diagonally opposite tires, and a four-wheel indirect system is also employed. Compared to a fully direct system, this hybrid system reduces costs and overcomes the limitation of indirect systems, which cannot detect simultaneous low pressure in multiple tires. However, it still cannot provide real-time pressure data for all four tires as effectively as a direct system.

Why Should Vehicles on the Main Road Yield to Those on the Auxiliary Road?

Due to high traffic volume, the main road serves as the trunk line while the auxiliary road functions as the branch line. Vehicles on the branch line should yield to those on the trunk line. Generally, main roads have more lanes and higher speed limits, so vehicles on auxiliary roads must yield to those on the main road. Below are relevant details: 1. Auxiliary roads in urban expressways should be located on one or both sides of the main road. For elevated roads, auxiliary roads should be set at ground level beneath the elevated structure. In urban areas, auxiliary roads should be continuously arranged, while in suburban expressways, they can be continuous or intermittent. 2. Auxiliary roads on both sides of the main road should adopt one-way traffic, whereas those on a single side may allow two-way traffic. 3. Elevated roads and ground-level roads should be connected via on-ramps and off-ramps.

What Causes a Car to Be Very Noisy?

There are several reasons why a car may be very noisy, including poor fuel quality, knocking or detonation phenomena, and structural noise from the car. The specific reasons are as follows: Poor Fuel Quality: If the fuel quality is poor, it can cause issues with the combustion process inside the engine. This leads to severe engine vibrations and increased noise. Additionally, it can result in more carbon buildup and higher fuel consumption. Therefore, it is advisable to use high-quality fuel for your car. Knocking or Detonation Phenomena: This usually occurs when the remaining combustible air-fuel mixture ignites spontaneously after the spark plug fires. The flame from the spark plug and the flame formed at the end propagate in opposite directions at an impact speed, producing a sharp and harsh knocking sound, which makes the car noisier. Structural Noise from the Car: Structural noise mainly comes from vibration transmission and the noise generated by metal components vibrating under stress. This is relatively normal and does not indicate a fault in the car.

What is the fuel tank capacity of the Mercedes-Benz GLC300L in liters?

The fuel tank capacity of the Mercedes-Benz GLC300L is 65 liters, and the manufacturer recommends using 95-octane gasoline. The fuel tank holds 65L + 7L reserve fuel, meaning that when the fuel gauge indicates the start of the remaining range, it signifies the beginning of using the 7L reserve fuel. Maintenance of the fuel tank is as follows: Drain accumulated water and sediment from the fuel tank, and check for oil leaks at pipe joints and switches. For fuel tank caps equipped with air valves and vapor valves, also ensure the ventilation holes are clear. The filter screen at the fuel filler neck should remain intact to prevent impurities from entering the tank during refueling and clogging the fuel lines. The sealing gasket on the fuel filler cap should also be in good condition to avoid fuel spillage while driving. To check the remaining fuel level, observe the fuel gauge on the right side of the instrument panel, marked with E and F. When the needle approaches E, it indicates low fuel, while nearing F means sufficient fuel. Methods to open the fuel tank: Mechanical key opening: Commonly found on some rugged off-road vehicles, this method is generally not used in modern family cars. In-car switch method: The location of the in-car fuel tank switch varies by model. Remember to turn off the engine before refueling. Press-to-open method: The press-to-open fuel tank door is currently the most convenient method.
