It depends on the car model, and the time varies between imported and domestic vehicles. If the 4S store has inventory, you can drive it away immediately. For domestic cars, the longest wait is half a month. For imported cars without stock, it takes at least three months. Below are some precautions when taking delivery of the car: Regarding vehicle documents: Purchase invoice, certificate of conformity, vehicle type approval certificate, vehicle registration certificate, warranty certificate, vehicle user manual, and new car delivery confirmation form. If the 4S store handles the license plate registration and insurance, you will also need to obtain the original insurance policy, insurance invoice, compulsory traffic insurance invoice, vehicle and vessel tax invoice, purchase tax invoice, tax payment certificate, and compulsory insurance label from the salesperson. Vehicle inspection: For the exterior, check the paint, production date of the window glass, tires, trunk, and engine. For the interior, focus on inspecting car functions such as lights, wipers, windows, rearview mirrors, dashboard, air conditioning, audio system, etc.

Can I Bring a Bag When Practicing Driving?

You can bring a bag when practicing driving. Precautions for novice drivers: 1. Fasten your seatbelt when getting in the car: Good habits start with wearing a seatbelt. Although it may feel uncomfortable, this small belt could save your life in the event of a high-speed collision. It is advised to develop the habit of fastening your seatbelt as soon as you get in the car. 2. Don't forget to release the handbrake when starting: As a beginner, always follow the correct sequence when starting the car. Regardless of whether the handbrake was engaged when parked, always check and release it before starting. Additionally, if you notice anything unusual while driving, stop immediately to inspect and understand the issue before continuing. Don't just complain about the car without knowing the cause. 3. Position your right foot correctly: Driving school cars usually have a higher idle speed. Instructors often discourage beginners from pressing the accelerator and may even disconnect the throttle cable. Since the car moves at idle speed, it can stop quickly by just pressing the clutch. Over time, many learners develop the habit of leaving their right foot idle. This habit can be dangerous when driving a manual transmission car in an emergency, as you might panic and miss the best braking opportunity, or even mistakenly press the accelerator instead of the brake, leading to serious accidents. 4. Don't forget to shift to neutral when parking: Forgetting to shift back to neutral or P after parking can cause the engine to stall. If you also forget to engage the handbrake, the car might lurch forward, causing damage to yourself or others. 5. Don't forget to engage the handbrake when parking: This issue is similar to wearing a seatbelt. During practice, the training area is usually flat, and instructors might not emphasize this. However, failing to overcome this bad habit can lead to major problems when driving formally. A slight oversight can result in the car rolling away, causing damage to your vehicle or even harming others' property or lives. The mistake may seem minor, but the consequences can be severe.

What are the symptoms of a faulty motorcycle spark plug?

Motorcycle spark plug failure symptoms requiring replacement: difficulty starting, low power, excessive exhaust emissions, increased fuel consumption; severe spark plug damage with phenomena such as blistering at the top, black streaks, cracking, or electrode melting. Methods to determine if a spark plug is damaged: Remove the spark plug for observation and assess its condition based on the following appearance colors. A normal spark plug's insulator skirt and electrodes appear gray-white, gray-yellow, or light brown. A properly functioning spark plug has a reddish-brown insulator skirt, with an electrode gap between 0.8-0.9mm and no signs of electrode burn. If the spark plug is contaminated with oil or deposits but is not damaged, it can continue to be used after cleaning off the oil and deposits. If the spark plug is severely damaged, showing blistering at the top, black streaks, cracking, electrode melting, etc., the cause of the damage should be identified. After troubleshooting, replace the spark plug with a new one. Additionally, if the spark plug appears black as if smoked, it indicates the wrong heat range was selected or the air-fuel mixture is too rich, with oil seepage.

What Does the Maintenance Reminder Light Icon Look Like?

The maintenance reminder light icon is a small wrench, which serves as a signal to remind the driver to perform vehicle maintenance. It is purely a reminder and does not indicate any fault in the vehicle. This icon needs to be manually reset after each maintenance service. If forgotten, it will continue to display even after maintenance has been performed. Vehicle maintenance precautions: 1. Pay attention to the cleanliness of the work area. Before closing other covers and the engine hood, carefully check to ensure that no removed parts, rags, tools, or other items are left behind. Only close them after confirming nothing is left. 2. Be cautious of rotating components and take protective measures during road tests. When the engine is running, keep hands, clothing, and tools away from the rotating fan and fan belt. During test drives, ensure all parts of the vehicle are in a condition that guarantees safe stopping and effective steering. Test vehicles must have clear identification marks. All occupants must wear seat belts, and tests should be conducted on designated test tracks. 3. Avoid damaging the vehicle's paint with brake fluid, as it can quickly dissolve the paint film. Extra caution is required when handling it. 4. Beware of burns. Components of a recently turned-off engine can be very hot. Handle with care. If the engine is extremely hot, do not remove the radiator cap or loosen the drain switch to prevent burns. 5. Prevent fires. Maintenance often involves the use of cleaners and fuels, which are flammable and explosive. Always ensure proper fire safety measures are in place during maintenance.

Is there an essential difference between multi-point fuel injection and direct injection?

In a multi-point fuel injection engine, the injectors are installed on the intake manifold, where fuel and air begin to mix before entering the cylinder for combustion. In contrast, direct injection technology injects fuel directly into the cylinder. There is an essential difference between the two. The following are the differences between multi-point fuel injection and direct injection: 1. Difference one: different working methods. Multi-point fuel injection, as the name suggests, has more than one injection hole on each injector. It directly injects fuel into the intake manifold of each cylinder, which then enters the corresponding combustion chamber, with one injector per cylinder. Direct injection sprays fuel directly into the cylinder, where it mixes with air to form a combustible mixture. This maximizes the efficiency of every drop of fuel but places higher demands on the injector due to the high-temperature and high-pressure environment inside the cylinder. The injection pressure is also further increased to atomize the fuel more finely, achieving precise proportional control of fuel injection and air mixing while eliminating the drawbacks of external cylinder injection. Multi-point injection is widely used due to its high control precision and other reasons. 2. Difference two: different target users. For family cars, multi-point fuel injection is the better choice as it is more reliable, has lower maintenance costs, and does not necessarily result in very high fuel consumption. Although direct injection theoretically has many advantages, it is not as practical in use. Direct injection is a trend, but its advantages cannot fully replace those of multi-point injection.

What brand is Atlas tires?

Atlas is a tire brand under the American Linglong Tire company, which also produces off-road tires specifically designed for unpaved surfaces. As early as 1935, Atlas collaborated with Goodyear to manufacture tires, becoming a benchmark in the U.S. tire market. In 2009, it was acquired by China's Ruyi Group and officially entered the Chinese market in 2017. Tires are circular elastic rubber products mounted on various vehicles or machinery that roll on the ground. Tires are often used under complex and demanding conditions. During operation, they endure various deformations, loads, forces, and extreme temperature effects. Therefore, they must possess high load-bearing capacity, traction performance, and cushioning performance, along with high wear resistance and flex resistance, as well as low rolling resistance and heat generation. They directly contact the road surface and work with the vehicle's suspension to absorb shocks during driving, ensuring good ride comfort and smoothness. They also ensure excellent adhesion between the wheels and the road, improving the vehicle's traction, braking, and off-road capabilities while bearing the vehicle's weight. For daily use of Atlas tires, pay attention to the following points: Regularly check the tire surface for cracks, deformations, or other defects. Due to wear from driving, the tread grooves gradually become shallower. If the tread is worn flat, it loses its drainage and anti-slip functions, significantly reducing the vehicle's performance. Even small cracks can pose a risk of tire blowouts at high speeds. Additionally, promptly remove pebbles lodged in the grooves. Park on flat ground whenever possible. Avoid parking on roads with thick, sharp, or pointed stones. Do not park near or in contact with petroleum products, acids, or other materials that may degrade rubber. After parking, avoid turning the steering wheel, as this accelerates tire wear. Do not splash water to cool overheated tires. In hot weather or during high-speed driving, tires can overheat, and tire pressure may increase. In such cases, stop to allow the tires to cool naturally. Never release air to reduce pressure or splash water to cool the tires, as this can cause abnormal aging of the tread rubber. Avoid sudden braking. Try to minimize frequent or hard braking to prevent accelerated tread wear caused by dragging between the tires and the road.
