According to the "Regulations on the Application and Use of Motor Vehicle Driving Licenses", there is no limit on the number of attempts for Subject 4. If the first attempt on the day is not passed, an immediate retake is allowed. If still not passed, a new appointment is required, and no retake fee is charged. However, it is important to note that the validity period of the driving skill test permit is three years. If the applicant fails to complete the exam within the validity period, the passed subject results will become invalid. Subject 4 exam consists of 50 questions, mainly in the form of case studies, images, animations, etc., with a full score of 100 and a passing score of 90. Subject 4, also known as the Subject 4 theoretical exam or driver theory exam, is part of the motor vehicle driving license assessment. After the implementation of the Ministry of Public Security's Order No. 123, Subject 3 exam was divided into two parts: road test and safety and civilization knowledge test, commonly referred to as "Subject 4", which assesses "driving ethics". Subject 4 is the colloquial name for the safety and civilization driving knowledge test under Subject 3, not a separate subject. Since this test is conducted after Subject 3, it is commonly referred to as Subject 4 exam. Officially, there is no Subject 4. The safety and civilization driving knowledge test is conducted after Subject 3. Subject 4 exam notes: Exam duration: The exam lasts for 30 minutes. Making 12 mistakes (6 questions) during the exam will terminate the session. Number of questions: 50 questions are selected proportionally from the corresponding Subject 4 question bank based on the type of driving license being tested. For car licenses, questions are selected from 800, and for large vehicle licenses, from 1023, with each question worth 2 points. Question types: The questions include single-choice (including true/false) and multiple-choice questions. The first 45 questions are single-choice, and the last 5 are multiple-choice. The exam includes animation questions, image questions, scenario recognition questions, and text-based questions. Retake notes: If Subject 4 is not passed, only Subject 4 needs to be retaken. The driving school will schedule the retake, with no limit on the number of retakes. If not passed, retakes can continue indefinitely, and no retake fee is required for Subject 4. Subject 4 exam tips: Strengthen weak areas and identify reasons for mistakes. For marked questions, do not just look at the correct answer and memorize it. Refer to regulations, textbooks, or reference books to find the reason for the mistake and understand it. Categorize and summarize questions. Refer to the question bank analysis for classification and find similar questions: Many questions in the bank are similar and easily confused, so they should be analyzed and summarized. For example, traffic signs for walking, hiking, pedestrian attention, crosswalk, and crosswalk attention are very similar and easily confused. During study, categorize them to avoid mistakes. Find memory techniques: Many questions in the bank involve numbers. Summarize these numbers for easier memorization. There are 3 subjects in the driving test: Subject 1, Subject 2, and Subject 3. Subject 3 exam is divided into two parts. Subject 1 refers to the road traffic safety laws, regulations, and related knowledge exam; Subject 2 refers to the field driving skill exam; Subject 3 exam refers to the road driving skill and safety and civilization driving knowledge exam.

The subject four exam is actually quite reassuring with plenty of opportunities. When I took it last year and failed twice, I wasn't worried because I knew I could reschedule after ten days. But let me remind you, although the retake chances are unlimited, you must complete it within three years after passing subject one. Each exam gives you two attempts - if you make more than 5 mistakes on the first try, you can retake immediately. There's a retake fee for each attempt, about 50 RMB in my second-tier city. The key is not just memorizing questions, but truly understanding traffic signs and emergency procedures. I eventually passed by repeatedly practicing with mock exam apps.

What brand is MileagePlus tires?

It is a Hankook Tire brand, the first tire company in South Korea, established in 1941. As the first tire manufacturer in Korea, it provides radial tires for passenger cars, light trucks (SUVs, RVs, etc.), trucks, buses, and special racing vehicles. Hankook has five R&D centers worldwide. Hankook tires are often used under complex and demanding conditions, enduring various deformations, loads, forces, and high-low temperature effects during driving. Therefore, they must possess relatively high load-bearing performance, traction performance, and cushioning performance, while also requiring high wear resistance and flex resistance, as well as relatively low rolling resistance and heat generation. They are in direct contact with the road surface and work together with the car suspension to mitigate the impact during driving, ensuring good ride comfort and smooth driving, maintaining excellent adhesion between the wheels and the road surface, improving the car's traction, braking, and maneuverability, and bearing the weight of the car. Hankook Tire Maintenance: Increase awareness of tire safety and inspect tires more frequently. Regularly correct wheel balance. Unbalanced wheels can cause high-frequency oscillations during high-speed driving, leading to uneven tire wear. Perform regular tire rotation. To ensure even wear across all tires on the same vehicle, rotate the tires every 5,000 kilometers. In daily use of Hankook tires, pay attention to the following points: Regularly check the tire surface for cracks, deformations, or other defects. Due to driving wear, the tread grooves gradually become shallower. If the tread wears flat, it will lose its drainage and anti-slip functions, significantly reducing the car's performance. Small cracks can be potential hazards for tire blowouts at high speeds. Additionally, immediately remove pebbles from the grooves. Try to park on flat ground. 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 deteriorate rubber. After parking, the driver should not turn the steering wheel, as this accelerates tire wear. Do not splash water to cool down. In hot weather or during high-speed driving, tires can easily overheat, and 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 down, as this can cause abnormal aging of the tread rubber. Avoid sudden braking. Try to minimize frequent use of brakes and emergency stops to prevent accelerated tread wear caused by dragging between the tires and the ground.

What to Do When the Engine Malfunction Light Comes On After Refueling?

If the engine malfunction light comes on after refueling, it indicates that poor-quality fuel has been added. During the combustion process in the engine, due to the high impurity content and low combustion efficiency of poor-quality fuel, some impurities and unburned fuel accumulate in the combustion chamber, occupying space and causing the engine malfunction light to illuminate. Solution: Promptly drain the poor-quality fuel and clean the fuel tank and fuel lines. After cleaning, replace it with high-quality fuel. Apart from fuel quality issues, the engine malfunction light may also come on due to the following reasons: Sensor Malfunction: The sensors mentioned here include coolant temperature, crankshaft position, air flow, intake air temperature, oxygen sensors, etc. When these sensors are damaged, have poor contact, or experience signal interruption, the car's ECU cannot accurately obtain engine data, leading to the illumination of the engine malfunction light. Poor Combustion of Air-Fuel Mixture: Poor combustion of the air-fuel mixture can cause engine carbon buildup or knocking. When detected by the oxygen sensor and reported to the ECU, the malfunction light will illuminate as a warning. Issues such as spark plug failure, ignition coil failure, fuel pump failure, or clogged fuel lines can all lead to poor combustion of the air-fuel mixture. Turbocharger Issues: Intake boost pipes and turbochargers can also cause the engine malfunction light to come on. The most common issue is turbocharger damage, accompanied by symptoms such as oil leaks, excessive oil consumption, reduced power, metallic noises, or blue/black smoke from the exhaust. Intake Issues: If there are problems with the car's air intake, it may lead to clogged engine pipes, and in severe cases, the engine malfunction light will illuminate. A dirty air filter that is not cleaned regularly can cause intake problems. Exhaust Issues: Exhaust system malfunctions can also trigger the engine malfunction light. Common causes include rear oxygen sensor failure, catalytic converter issues, exhaust camshaft and bearing failure, with the catalytic converter being the most frequent culprit. The use of leaded gasoline, lead or silicon-based lubricant additives, physical damage to the catalytic converter, or fuel system malfunctions can all easily lead to catalytic converter failure. Anti-Theft System Malfunction: If the car's electronic anti-theft system malfunctions or the anti-theft controller does not match the engine electronic controller, the anti-theft system can prevent the engine from operating normally, and the engine malfunction light will illuminate.

What Causes Stuttering in Car Window Operation?

Here are the specific reasons for stuttering in car window operation: 1. Low voltage: The window's up and down movement is driven by the window regulator. If the window operates slowly when the engine is off, it may be due to low battery voltage. 2. Door deformation: Slight deformation of the door can affect window movement, potentially causing stuttering. 3. Circuit issues: Since window operation is electrically controlled, problems may arise from circuit issues such as poor switch contact or damaged window regulators.

What Causes Engine Valve Noise?

Reasons for engine valve noise: 1. Excessive wear of components or faulty clearance adjustment; 2. Crankcase fluid level being too high or too low, affecting engine oil pressure; 3. Damaged hydraulic lifters where internal oil pressure release is too fast, causing abnormal valve opening/closing - this requires disassembly and replacement of engine hydraulic lifters; 4. Dirty valve lifters, typically requiring engine cleaning as there are usually no other contamination sources in the engine besides mechanical failures - with oil sludge being the main culprit, so valve noise caused by dirty lifters requires engine disassembly for inspection.
