Vehicle inspections cannot be postponed, and driving with an expired inspection is illegal. Below is relevant information about how long a vehicle inspection can be overdue: 1. Vehicle inspections are mandatory tests: an annual check-up for vehicles according to the "Technical Conditions for Motor Vehicle Operation Safety." Vehicle inspections help promptly eliminate safety hazards, encourage proper vehicle maintenance, and reduce the occurrence of traffic accidents. 2. Regulations on vehicle inspections: Motor vehicles must undergo safety technical inspections within the following periods from the date of registration. For passenger vehicles used in commercial operations: once a year within the first 5 years; every 6 months after 5 years. For trucks and large or medium-sized non-commercial passenger vehicles: once a year within the first 10 years; every 6 months after 10 years. For small and mini non-commercial passenger vehicles: once every 2 years within the first 6 years; once a year after 6 years; every 6 months after 15 years.

Is the engine of the Shadow Leopard domestically produced?

The Shadow Leopard engine is a domestically produced engine. The Shadow Leopard is equipped with the GAC Trumpchi's independently developed Julang Power 1.5TGDI engine. The engine model used in the Shadow Leopard is 4A15J2, with a maximum horsepower of 177 hp, a maximum power of 130 KW, a maximum power speed of 5500 rpm, and a peak torque of 270 N.m. For daily maintenance of the Shadow Leopard's engine, the following methods can be used: Use lubricating oil of appropriate quality grade. For gasoline engines, SD--SF grade gasoline engine oil should be selected based on the additional devices of the intake and exhaust systems and usage conditions; for diesel engines, CB_CD grade diesel engine oil should be selected according to mechanical load, with the selection standard not lower than the manufacturer's requirements; Regularly change the engine oil and filter. The quality of any grade of lubricating oil will change during use. After a certain mileage, performance deteriorates, leading to various engine problems. To avoid faults, change the oil regularly according to usage conditions and keep the oil level moderate; When the oil passes through the fine holes of the filter, solid particles and viscous substances in the oil accumulate in the filter. If the filter is blocked and the oil cannot pass through the filter element, it will either burst the filter element or open the safety valve, allowing the oil to bypass through the bypass valve, bringing dirt back to the lubrication area, accelerating engine wear and increasing internal pollution; Regularly clean the crankcase. During engine operation, high-pressure unburned gases, acids, moisture, sulfur, and nitrogen oxides from the combustion chamber enter the crankcase through the gap between the piston rings and cylinder walls, mixing with metal powder from part wear to form sludge. A small amount remains suspended in the oil, while a large amount precipitates, clogging filters and oil holes, making engine lubrication difficult and causing wear; Regularly use a radiator cleaner to clean the radiator. Removing rust and scale not only ensures normal engine operation but also extends the overall lifespan of the radiator and engine.

What to Do When the Car Radar Doesn't Beep?

Car radar not beeping can be resolved by replacing the buzzer. The functions of car radar are: 1. The ultrasonic sensor emits and receives ultrasonic signals, then inputs these signals into the main unit, displaying them via the display device; 2. The controller processes the signals, calculating the distance and orientation between the vehicle body and obstacles. During reversing, the car radar utilizes the ultrasonic principle, with probes installed on the rear bumper sending out ultrasonic waves that reflect off obstacles. It then calculates the actual distance between the vehicle body and the obstacle, alerting the driver to make parking or reversing easier and safer.

What does low coolant level mean?

low coolant level means the car is lacking or short of antifreeze. The following is relevant knowledge about antifreeze: Characteristics of antifreeze: Over 95% of antifreeze used domestically and internationally is ethylene glycol-based aqueous antifreeze. Compared with tap water, the most notable feature of ethylene glycol is its antifreeze property, while water cannot prevent freezing. Secondly, ethylene glycol has a high boiling point, low volatility, moderate viscosity with minimal changes with temperature, and good thermal stability. Therefore, ethylene glycol-based antifreeze is an ideal coolant. Functions of antifreeze: Antifreeze is a type of coolant containing special additives, mainly used in liquid-cooled engine cooling systems. Antifreeze has excellent properties such as preventing freezing in winter, preventing boiling in summer, and preventing scale and corrosion all year round.

What is the power output of a 12V car alternator?

12V car alternator provides sufficient power for all electrical devices in a vehicle, and is capable of charging electric vehicles through a 60V boost module. Introduction: The car alternator serves as the primary power source for vehicles. Its function is to supply electricity to all electrical devices (excluding the starter) while simultaneously charging the battery when the engine is running normally (above idle speed). Principle: Based on the three-phase stator winding of a conventional AC generator, additional winding turns and lead-out terminals are added, along with an extra three-phase bridge rectifier. At low speeds, the output is provided by the series connection of the original and additional windings, while at higher speeds, only the original three-phase winding provides the output.

What type of maintenance is tire disassembly and rotation?

Tire disassembly and rotation is a maintenance procedure aimed at extending the overall service life of vehicle tires. Its purpose is to prevent uneven wear on car tires caused by prolonged use, which could compromise driving safety. The primary reason for uneven tire wear is the difference in forces exerted on front drive wheels and rear non-drive wheels, leading to varying degrees of wear. The benefits of tire rotation include: 1. More balanced tire wear; 2. Extended tire lifespan; 3. Prevention of abnormal tire wear; 4. Improved driving safety. Methods for tire rotation: 1. Front-to-rear and side-to-side swapping, or cross rotation; 2. Select tires with deeper tread patterns for front wheel positions.
