When taking the B2 driving license test for Subject 3, we found that there are 16 items to be tested, all of which are real on-road operations. For example, before starting, you need to walk around the car to check the tires, and after adjusting the seat, you also need to test the lights. While driving, you must complete basic actions such as shifting gears, driving straight, changing lanes, and overtaking. At intersections, you must watch the traffic lights, and when encountering a crosswalk, you must stop to yield to pedestrians. The most challenging part is pulling over to the side, which must be within 30 centimeters—any mistake means failing. During the night test, you also need to operate the headlight switches. Among these items, the most common mistakes are deviating from straight-line driving and forgetting to check the rearview mirror when changing lanes. When I was practicing, the instructor always emphasized that every detail must become muscle memory, as missing any action results in immediate points deduction.

What kind of tire cracks are considered normal?

Cracks that are fine and appear on the tire tread are normal. Since the typical lifespan of a tire is five years, small cracks may appear after about three years of use. This is a normal sign of aging, cracking, or wear and does not necessarily require replacement, but regular inspections are still recommended. If cracks appear on the tire sidewall, it is important to have them checked at a shop promptly and replaced if necessary. The sidewall is the most vulnerable part of the tire, and continued driving with such cracks may lead to a blowout. Additionally, if the cracks are too long or deep, reaching the standard tread depth of 1.6mm, replacement is also required. Tires with bulges should be replaced immediately. Bulging is a common issue with tires, usually caused by impacts that break the internal metal cords, leading to bulges. Continuing to drive at high speeds or over long distances with bulging tires significantly increases the risk of a blowout and potential accidents, so drivers should be cautious.

What is the voice wake-up command for MG6?

The voice wake-up command for MG6 is "Hello, Banma". After the upgrade of the Banma system's voice wake-up function, the system can be activated without saying "Hello, Banma", and users can directly give commands. The system also added a "dual-zone directional" voice function, allowing the Banma system to accept and execute voice commands from the co-driver. The latest optimized voice system comes with an AI customer service feature and can enable "self-learning" skills via the cloud, collecting and analyzing users' language habits. This update also upgraded the mobile remote vehicle control system. After the upgrade, users can remotely control the car locks, trunk, air conditioning, engine, trip management, vehicle status inquiry, road conditions, and service recommendations through their mobile phones. In addition, the vehicle can be located in real-time via the mobile phone for easy vehicle finding.

Will the insurance company compensate if the vehicle is washed away by heavy rain?

Vehicle washed away by heavy rain will be compensated by the insurance company. Non-human circumstances: Whether the insurance company compensates for a vehicle washed away by heavy rain depends on the type of insurance coverage. If the vehicle is insured with comprehensive coverage (car damage insurance), and the car is parked and then washed away, the insurance company will compensate. However, it is important to note that if the car stalls due to flooding while driving, do not attempt to restart the engine. Damage caused by restarting the engine will not be covered by the insurance. Human circumstances: Intentionally driving the car into water will not be compensated by the insurance company. Although the coverage of car damage insurance includes situations where the vehicle is submerged in water, the insurance terms clearly exclude coverage for driving behaviors that violate traffic rules, such as driving without a license, drunk driving, or intentional damage.

What are the symptoms of a faulty spark plug?

Spark plug failure manifests in the following ways: Difficulty starting the car, with both cold and warm starts being problematic, often requiring multiple attempts. Engine shaking occurs while driving the car. Reduced power output, with a noticeable decrease in performance compared to normal conditions. Increased fuel consumption. Engine stalling. Failed exhaust emissions. Common causes and diagnosis of spark plug failure: Several common issues can prevent spark plugs from functioning properly: Incorrect spark plug gap adjustment. A gap that is too small limits the contact area between the spark and the air-fuel mixture and suppresses flame kernel growth due to the quenching effect of the electrodes, resulting in weak sparks and difficulty igniting the mixture. A gap that is too large may exceed the ignition system's voltage capacity, preventing sparking between the electrodes. Cracked spark plug skirt. High-voltage current leaks through the crack, preventing sparking at the electrodes. Carbon buildup on electrodes, causing current to leak from the center electrode to the surroundings rather than jumping to the side electrode. Excessive carbon deposits can short-circuit the spark plug, preventing sparking and potentially damaging the insulator. Damaged electrodes. Prolonged electrical erosion from sparks or chemical corrosion from combustion gases can cause electrodes to break or detach, preventing sparking. Low insulation resistance of the spark plug. This reduces the ignition voltage applied to the spark gap, weakening the spark or completely eliminating ignition capability. Short circuit in high-voltage wires. Leakage in the wire from the ignition coil to the distributor can prevent the entire engine from starting, while leakage in the wire from the distributor to a spark plug can prevent sparking in that cylinder. Burnt platinum contacts. This can prevent all spark plugs from firing, making the engine unable to start or run normally. Faulty spark plugs should be replaced promptly. The replacement steps are as follows: Open the hood, remove the engine's plastic cover, and detach the high-voltage wires, marking each cylinder's position to avoid confusion. Use a spark plug socket to remove the spark plugs one by one, ensuring the surrounding area is free of debris like leaves or dust. Insert the new spark plug into the hole, hand-tighten it a few turns, then use the socket to tighten it fully. Reinstall the high-voltage wires in the correct firing order and replace the cover. Spark plug replacement interval: Typically, spark plugs should be replaced every 40,000 to 60,000 kilometers under normal maintenance conditions, but this may vary by brand and engine type. Always refer to the owner's manual for specific recommendations.

Can a Vehicle Be Transferred Without a Purchase Invoice?

It is possible to transfer a vehicle without a purchase invoice. The required documents for vehicle transfer include the ID card of the vehicle owner, the 'Motor Vehicle Registration Certificate,' the vehicle license, and the 'Motor Vehicle Change/Registration Application Form.' When the ownership of a registered motor vehicle is transferred, the new owner must apply for a transfer registration at the local vehicle management office within 30 days from the date of vehicle delivery. For a vehicle transfer, there must be a legal source and proper procedures, no outstanding bank liens or court seizure records, no unresolved traffic violations or accident records, no outstanding fee arrears, and all documents must be complete. Completing the transfer legally ensures the transfer of vehicle ownership, guarantees the legality of the vehicle's source, clarifies the responsibilities of both the buyer and seller regarding the vehicle (such as debt disputes or traffic violations), and protects the legitimate rights and interests of both parties.

Will Insurance Cover Water Damage to a Car?

If you haven't purchased water damage insurance, the insurance company will not cover the damages. Additionally, losses incurred from forcibly starting the engine after submersion will also not be compensated by the insurance company. Below is relevant information: 1. Relevant Regulations: According to China's motor vehicle insurance clauses, vehicle losses caused by natural disasters such as heavy rain and floods fall under the liability of commercial auto insurance's vehicle damage insurance. Therefore, expenses such as rescue costs, cleaning fees, electrical damage, and interior damage resulting from vehicle submersion are covered by vehicle damage insurance, and the insurance company should compensate for these. However, vehicle damage insurance does not cover engine damage caused by submersion or secondary ignition, but water damage insurance does. 2. Water Damage Insurance: Also known as engine special loss insurance, it covers damages to the engine caused by driving through water or submersion. Moreover, since auto insurance clauses typically include a deductible rate, if the "special clause for no deductible" is not purchased, the insurance company will compensate after deducting the deductible amount in the event of an accident.
