Modifying the exhaust does not require registration. Here are the relevant details: Introduction: Modifications to the exterior of a car's exhaust pipe do not need to be registered with the vehicle management office, as these modifications do not affect the vehicle's performance and are purely decorative. Installing roof racks, adding side steps for SUVs, or fitting front and rear bumpers on smaller vehicles—as long as they are not overly prominent, do not exceed the original length and width of the vehicle, and do not compromise safety—are not considered modifications. Additional Information: Changing the car emblem, adding lighting devices, or installing xenon headlights—any alterations that change the fundamental characteristics of the vehicle—are illegal. For example, replacing a domestic car emblem with a Mercedes-Benz logo or adding an original Toyota emblem are illegal modifications. Enhancing the vehicle's aesthetic lighting by adding LED lights on the roof or other parts of the body, or replacing the factory-installed headlights with excessively bright xenon lights, are common illegal modifications that require attention. These are all considered illegal modifications.

Should I shift to N or P gear when waiting at a red light with an automatic transmission?

When waiting at a red light with an automatic transmission, you should shift to N gear. The reason is: the P gear in an automatic transmission vehicle is the parking gear, used for long-term parking, while the N gear is the neutral gear, used when the car is temporarily stopped and not moving. Automatic transmission refers to not requiring the driver to manually shift gears; the vehicle will automatically select the appropriate gear based on driving speed and traffic conditions. The correct method for parking an automatic transmission vehicle is: 1. Press the foot brake to stop the car; 2. Shift the gear from D to N; 3. Pull the handbrake and turn off the engine; 4. Release the foot brake without turning off the power; 5. Press the foot brake again and shift the gear from N to P; 6. Release the foot brake and turn the key back; 7. Turn off the power and remove the key.

What Does the Engine Symbol on the Dashboard Mean?

When the engine symbol appears on the dashboard, it indicates that the ignition switch is turned on, the control indicator light is illuminated, and it should turn off shortly after the engine starts. An engine is a machine that converts one form of energy into another, typically transforming chemical energy into mechanical energy. The reasons for the engine yellow light appearing on the dashboard include: 1. A clogged car air filter causing restricted airflow; 2. Faulty spark plugs, ignition coils, fuel pump, or blocked fuel lines leading to poor combustion of the engine's air-fuel mixture; 3. Improper maintenance increasing the engine's operational burden; 4. Poor fuel quality resulting in increased carbon deposits inside the engine cylinders.
