Re-stamping the VIN does not require the vehicle owner to be present in person, but the owner's ID card is required for the procedure. Relevant information: 1. Required materials: The vehicle registration certificate, purchase certificate, and the owner's ID card need to be brought to the vehicle management office to apply for the procedure, and then the re-stamping will be done at a designated location. 2. Additional information: The full name of the VIN is the Vehicle Identification Number, which is a unique set of alphanumeric characters assigned by the manufacturer to identify a vehicle. It consists of a 17-character code, also known as the 17-digit identification code, chassis number, or 17-digit number. The combination of characters in the VIN ensures that no two vehicles of the same model will have the same number within 30 years, making it a unique identifier for the vehicle, hence it can be referred to as the 'vehicle's ID card'.

What Types of Car Insurance Are Reasonable to Purchase?

Generally, it is reasonable to purchase compulsory traffic insurance, vehicle damage insurance, third-party liability insurance, and no-deductible insurance. Car insurance is divided into compulsory traffic insurance and commercial auto insurance. Compulsory traffic insurance is a mandatory vehicle insurance required by the state, with premiums uniformly regulated by the government. Commercial auto insurance comes in various types and can be purchased based on the actual needs of the car owner. If the vehicle has a lower value, it is recommended to configure compulsory traffic insurance, third-party liability insurance, vehicle damage insurance, and no-deductible insurance. Theft insurance, passenger liability insurance, scratch insurance, and water damage insurance should be chosen based on the actual circumstances of the city or residential area. For higher-value vehicles, in addition to the mandatory compulsory traffic insurance, third-party liability insurance, vehicle damage insurance, and no-deductible insurance, it is advisable to add standalone glass breakage insurance. Theft insurance, passenger liability insurance, scratch insurance, and water damage insurance can be purchased as needed.

What does the keyless entry function mean?

Keyless entry function is an unlocking feature of a car, which means the car key has remote sensing capability. When the key is brought close to the car door, the vehicle can detect the key within a certain distance and automatically unlock. When the key moves away from the car body, the doors automatically lock and enter an anti-theft alert state. This product utilizes RFID radio frequency technology and a vehicle identity code recognition system, pioneering the development of a miniaturized, low-power RF antenna solution. It integrates the remote control system with the keyless system while maintaining traditional vehicle circuit protection, achieving dual RF systems and dual anti-theft protection, providing convenience and security for car owners.

How to reset the engine fault light?

Engine fault light reset method: Simply pull out the fuse. Solutions for engine fault light illumination: Clean the engine: Once the engine fault light comes on, the owner should promptly clean the carbon deposits in the engine. Improve fuel quality: Domestic fuel currently cannot meet the requirements of high-performance engines, so owners can take steps to improve fuel quality themselves. Use higher-octane gasoline: After cleaning the engine, since most cars that comply with the National IV emission standards have an engine compression ratio of 10.0 or higher, these vehicles are not suitable for long-term use of gasoline below 95 octane. To maintain the engine in good working condition, owners can choose to use 95 or 97 octane gasoline, which usually resolves the engine fault light issue.
