Newly purchased motorcycles cannot be driven on the road without license plates. Otherwise, 12 points will be deducted from the driver's license, and a fine will be imposed. However, there are two opportunities to apply for temporary license plates, each valid for 15 days. Eligibility and scope for applying for temporary license plates: When driving the vehicle from the place of purchase to the place of use, a temporary license plate must be applied for at the vehicle management office in the place of purchase. When transferring vehicle registration and after surrendering the official license plates, a temporary license plate must be applied for at the local vehicle management office to drive back to the local area. The process and procedures for applying for temporary license plates are as follows: The applicant must present a unit introduction letter, proof of vehicle origin, certificate of conformity, and other relevant documents (except for the introduction letter, which will be archived, the rest will be returned to the applicant) to the vehicle management office for processing. During the application, the starting and ending points of the vehicle's journey and the duration of the temporary license plate use must be specified. After review by the management staff and inspection of the vehicle, if qualified, temporary license plates will be issued, with the validity period and starting and ending locations specified. Method for affixing temporary license plates: Two temporary license plates must be affixed simultaneously. One should be affixed to the upper right corner of the front windshield inside the vehicle, in a position that does not obstruct the driver's view and should not be covered by the compulsory insurance label. The other should be affixed to the upper left corner of the rear windshield inside the vehicle.

Where is the car fuel injector located?

The car fuel injector is a simple solenoid valve, typically installed on the intake manifold or, in the case of direct injection engines, on the cylinder block. The gasoline engine injector is part of the electronic control system of the gasoline engine, replacing the carburetor in carburetor-type gasoline engines. Here is some relevant information about car fuel injectors: 1. The car fuel injector is a simple solenoid valve. When the solenoid coil is energized, it generates suction, lifting the needle valve to open the injection hole. Fuel is then sprayed at high speed through the annular gap between the needle valve head and the injection hole, forming a mist that facilitates complete combustion. 2. A clogged fuel injector can severely affect car performance. Clogging occurs due to carbon deposits from the engine accumulating on the injector or impurities in the fuel blocking the injector pathway. After a certain period of driving, deposits will form in the fuel system. 3. Regularly cleaning the fuel injector is important, but both long-term neglect and frequent cleaning can have negative effects. The timing for cleaning depends on the vehicle's condition and the quality of the fuel used. Most recommendations suggest cleaning every 20,000 to 30,000 kilometers. For vehicles in good condition using high-quality fuel, this interval can be extended to 40,000 to 60,000 kilometers.

How to Configure a Car Remote Control?

Insert the mechanical key into the ignition lock, then press the learning button on the remote control box with a sharp pen tip. After hearing a "beep" sound, quickly turn the ignition key from the LOCK position to the ON position three times (speed is crucial, otherwise the learning mode cannot be entered). On the third turn, leave the key in the ON position. After about 2 seconds, the hazard lights will flash. Press any button on the remote control, and the turn signals will flash three times. Then, press any button on another remote control, and the turn signals will flash three times again, completing the learning process. Below is an introduction to car remote controls: 1. Car remote keys can be configured at 4S shops and large repair shops, with the main difference being the price. Any key can be configured. 2. A car remote key not only has remote control functionality but also a primary feature: anti-theft. Each remote key has a unique "code" that is also stored in the vehicle's anti-theft system. Therefore, configuring a new remote key requires matching this "code" with the one in the vehicle. 3. Once the matching is complete, the new remote key can be activated, and the lost key will become invalid. Even if someone finds your lost key, they can only unlock your car door mechanically but will not be able to start your vehicle.

What are the causes of car shock absorber oil leakage?

Shock absorber oil leakage causes: 1. Poor cleanliness inside the shock absorber, with welding slag, iron filings, and other debris causing oil seal wear. 2. Harsh working conditions of the shock absorber, allowing external mud, sand, and other debris to enter the oil seal. 3. Aging of the sealing interface of the shock absorber oil seal, losing its sealing function. 4. When spraying the chassis armor, the shock absorber was not properly covered, causing the armor to adhere to the shock absorber piston rod. 5. The extension rod that controls the piston movement needs to be extended at one end of the metal tube, and the poor sealing of this part leads to leakage. Solutions for car shock absorber oil leakage: 1. Oil traces on the surface of the shock absorber cylinder do not necessarily mean oil leakage. To determine whether the shock absorber is leaking or failing, it is necessary to judge whether replacement is needed based on factors such as the type of shock absorber, the level of leakage, and the location of oil traces. For shock absorbers with only slight leakage, replacement may not be necessary. Additionally, shock absorbers may exhibit oil seepage during normal operation, which is a normal phenomenon. 2. For pillar-type shock absorbers like front shock absorbers, if the oil film is between the oil seal cover and the spring seat, replacement is not needed. However, if oil leaks below the spring seat or seeps below the spring bracket or if droplet-like oil appears, the shock absorber needs to be replaced.

Does a Car Consume Fuel When Idling with the Air Conditioning On?

Yes, a car consumes fuel when idling with the air conditioning on. Below are specific details about other factors that affect fuel consumption: 1. Engine Technology: Many people assume that larger-displacement vehicles consume more fuel, and this is indeed the case, which is why there is strong encouragement for the consumption of smaller-displacement vehicles. However, when there is a significant gap in engine technology, this pattern can easily be disrupted. For example, models equipped with Mazda's S-VT variable valve system, VIS variable intake manifold system, VTCS variable vortex control system, and VAD variable intake duct system in a 1.5L configuration can achieve a fuel consumption as low as 6.35L/100km, which is more fuel-efficient than many 1.0L models. Therefore, the technological level of the engine has a more significant impact on fuel consumption than displacement in some cases. 2. Transmission Type: The influence of the transmission on fuel consumption is evident, but the extent of this impact varies across different models. For instance, the Hyundai Elantra, a fuel-efficient family sedan, has a fuel consumption of 6.7L/100km for its 1.6L manual variant, while the Toyota Corolla manual variant consumes 7.3L/100km and the automatic variant 7.4L/100km, showing a smaller difference. This is because their transmission tuning prioritizes fuel economy, sacrificing some power by shifting earlier to achieve better fuel efficiency.

What Causes the Exhaust Emission Indicator Light to Illuminate?

The illumination of the exhaust emission indicator light indicates a malfunction in the exhaust after-treatment system, resulting in excessive emissions. The exhaust emission control system indicator light will illuminate when the ignition is turned on and must turn off after the engine is started. If the light does not turn off after starting the engine or lights up or flashes while driving, it suggests unstable operation in the emission control system and excessive exhaust emissions. The vehicle can still operate normally at this time, but it is advisable to conduct an inspection and address the issue as soon as possible. Prolonged driving under these conditions may lead to further damage to components related to the exhaust emission control system and worsen exhaust emissions.

Can you turn left at a straight traffic light?

At a traffic light intersection, you cannot make a turn in the straight lane; you should drive according to the designated lane. Making a U-turn at a traffic light: If there is no prohibition against U-turns on the road section, you can make a U-turn, but only when the left-turn signal is green. For specific details, please see below: 1. According to Article 36 of the 'Road Traffic Safety Law of the People's Republic of China': Based on road conditions and traffic needs, roads are divided into motor vehicle lanes, non-motor vehicle lanes, and pedestrian walkways. Motor vehicles, non-motor vehicles, and pedestrians should travel in their respective lanes. On road sections without designated motor vehicle lanes, non-motor vehicle lanes, or pedestrian walkways, motor vehicles should travel in the middle of the road, while non-motor vehicles and pedestrians should travel on both sides of the road. 2. Article 37: If a road has a dedicated lane, only specified vehicles are allowed to travel in that lane, and other vehicles are not permitted to enter. 3. Article 49 of the 'Implementation Regulations of the Road Traffic Safety Law of the People's Republic of China': Motor vehicles are not allowed to make U-turns at locations with signs or markings prohibiting U-turns or left turns, as well as at railway crossings, pedestrian crosswalks, bridges, sharp curves, steep slopes, tunnels, or other dangerous road sections. Motor vehicles can make U-turns at locations without signs or markings prohibiting U-turns or left turns, but they must not obstruct the normal passage of other vehicles and pedestrians.
