Generally, the second maintenance for a car is performed when the vehicle has been driven for 10,000 kilometers or between 9 months to a year, which means it is spaced 5,000 kilometers or 3 months to half a year after the first maintenance. However, some models have their first maintenance at 8,000 kilometers or 10,000 kilometers, in which case the second maintenance will be correspondingly delayed. Relevant details about the second maintenance are as follows: 1. Items for the second maintenance: It includes inspection and maintenance of 63 items across eight major systems—engine, transmission, braking system, steering system, air conditioning system, body system, tire system, and suspension system—along with quality inspection and test driving. The key tasks, similar to the first maintenance, involve changing the engine oil and oil filter. 2. Replacements needed during the second maintenance: The air filter and cabin air filter also need to be replaced during the second maintenance. These parts can be replaced at the 4S shop, or you can purchase matching parts online and replace them yourself, which can save some costs.

Where Are Mortgaged Vehicles Usually Parked?

It is still under your own custody. If it is a pledge, then it will be under someone else's custody. If damage occurs during someone else's custody, they will definitely be held accountable. Bank Internal Bidding Auction: When the car owner purchases a car in installments, they obtain a loan from the bank using the car as collateral. At this time, the vehicle title (green book) is held by the bank, and the car cannot be transferred until the loan is fully repaid. When checking the records, it will show: 'Mortgaged to XX Bank.' If the car owner fails to repay the loan on time, the bank will face bad debt. To recover the bad debt within the year, the bank may sue the owner in court or have the car towed back by a third party for internal bidding auction. The price of such mortgaged cars is similar to that of used cars, and it is not recommended to purchase them. Financial Company Auction: Auto mortgage loans are obtained from financial institutions using the borrower's or a third party's car or self-purchased car as collateral. When checking the records, the status will show: 'Mortgaged to XX Auto Finance Company.' Once the car owner defaults on the loan, the financial company may sue or have the car towed back by a third-party collection team. The car will then be auctioned internally through a bidding process. Pawnshop Mortgage: If the car owner urgently needs money and cannot obtain a loan from a bank or financial institution for certain reasons, they may use the car as collateral to borrow money from private enterprises or individuals, signing a mortgage contract. If they are unable to redeem the car by the due date, it will be resold through debt transfer.

How many cylinders does the Kawasaki Ninja 400 have?

Kawasaki Ninja 400 is equipped with a four-cylinder engine. Here are the differences between three-cylinder and four-cylinder vehicles: Stability differences: Four-cylinder vehicles obviously have much better stability than three-cylinder ones. This is because the four-cylinder engine works in separate strokes, so the force and reaction force cancel each other out, greatly reducing engine vibration. Three-cylinder engines lack one cylinder, and there is a moment during operation when the engine is not working, making the vibration of three-cylinder engines more noticeable. Structural differences: Three-cylinder engines have a simple structure, are compact, lightweight, and easy to arrange. Four-cylinder engines have a relatively more complex structure with one additional cylinder. In terms of structural design, three-cylinder engines have one fewer cylinder than four-cylinder engines, and correspondingly fewer camshaft accessories.

Are there two chances for the make-up exam of Subject 1?

The "Regulations on the Application and Use of Motor Vehicle Driving Licenses" clearly stipulates that on the day of the Subject 1 make-up exam, candidates can take the exam twice. If they fail the first time, they can take a second make-up exam for free. If they still fail the second time, the Subject 1 exam is terminated, and they can only reschedule the exam after ten days. Subject 1, also known as the Subject 1 theory test or driver theory test, is part of the motor vehicle driving license assessment. The exam content includes the theoretical basis of driving, road safety laws and regulations, local regulations, and other related knowledge. The exam is conducted on a computer, with a time limit of 45 minutes. A passing score for Subject 1 is 90 points. The exam consists of 100 questions, divided into single-choice questions and true/false questions, with each question worth 1 point, totaling 100 points. If a candidate answers 11 questions incorrectly during the exam, the system will automatically submit the exam and end the test. Subject 1 exam content: Driving license and motor vehicle management regulations; Road traffic conditions and regulations; Road traffic safety violations and penalties; Road traffic accident handling regulations; Basic knowledge of motor vehicles; Local regulations; Knowledge of braking systems and safety devices for large and medium-sized passenger and freight vehicles; Special knowledge for wheeled self-propelled machinery, trams, and trolleybuses. Subject 1 exam precautions: During the Subject 1 exam, candidates should pay attention to their attire. No slippers are allowed, and electronic devices and bags are prohibited in the exam room. Bring your ID card and queue to enter the waiting hall. Observe the precautions and procedures on the large screen, and store personal belongings in a locker before entering the exam room. Upon entering the exam room, the identity verification station will assign a seat. After finding your seat, begin the exam. Ensure the camera is aimed at you and follow exam discipline. If you fail the first time, there is a make-up exam on the same day. If you fail again, you must pay to reschedule. After the exam, queue to collect your score report and sign it. Failure to sign will render the exam invalid. There is no limit to the number of times you can reschedule the Subject 1 exam. Each subject exam can be taken once, and if you fail, you can take a make-up exam once. If you do not take the make-up exam or still fail the make-up exam, the exam is terminated, and the applicant must reschedule the exam. For Subject 2 and Subject 3, there are only five exam attempts. Subject 2 and Subject 3 exams can be rescheduled after ten days. If you fail the Subject 3 safe and civilized driving knowledge test, the previously passed road driving skills test scores remain valid. There are three subjects in the driving test: Subject 1, Subject 2, and Subject 3. Subject 1 refers to the road traffic safety laws, regulations, and related knowledge exam; Subject 2 refers to the field driving skills exam; Subject 3 is divided into two parts: road driving skills and safe and civilized driving knowledge exam. The safe and civilized driving knowledge test is conducted after Subject 3, so it is commonly referred to as Subject 4. However, in official terms (i.e., the Ministry of Public Security Order No. 123), there is no such thing as Subject 4.

Can a New Car Be Driven on Long-Distance Highways?

New cars can be driven on long-distance highways. Below are some precautions for driving a new car on highways: Loading Too Light or Too Heavy: When driving on highways, a new car must be in a fully loaded state. Therefore, ensure the vehicle is loaded according to the full-load mass specified in the manual. If you can't find enough passengers, you can fill the trunk with items. Driving on Highways Before the First Maintenance: It is essential to complete the first maintenance before taking a new car on highways. After the first maintenance, potential issues such as bolt torque and fluid levels are checked and resolved, ensuring greater safety. Driving on Highways Before an Oil Change: High-speed driving requires not only skill but also proper timing. The quality of the engine oil is a direct factor affecting the engine. Therefore, avoid driving on highways before an oil change. During high-speed driving, the engine operates at high RPMs, leading to maximum mechanical wear. The first batch of oil contains the most metal shavings and impurities. Using this contaminated oil for high-speed driving can significantly increase engine wear and even cause abnormal damage.

Can You Use Air Conditioning to Remove Formaldehyde in a New Car?

You can use air conditioning to remove formaldehyde in a new car. The more the air conditioner cools, the longer the compressor runs, thus consuming more fuel. Impact of Air Conditioning Fan Speed on Fuel Consumption: Using air conditioning consumes more fuel mainly because the air conditioning compressor requires significant power to operate. However, changes in fan speed have little effect on power demand. Therefore, within a certain speed range or wind resistance, using air conditioning increases fuel consumption, while not using it saves fuel. The impact of air conditioning fan speed on fuel consumption is negligible, including when only using the heater in winter. Impact of Air Conditioning Temperature on Fuel Consumption: When it's too hot or too cold and you must use air conditioning, avoid setting it to the coldest or hottest extremes—moderate settings are best. Excessively low or high temperatures waste fuel.

What Causes Engine Odor?

Engine odor is caused by burning engine oil. The following introduces specific reasons: Combustion chamber: Carbon deposits in the combustion chamber cause the piston rings' compression rings to stick, resulting in poor sealing. Lubrication system: Sludge forms in the lubrication system, which blocks the oil return holes of the oil control rings, weakening their oil-scraping performance. Between piston and cylinder wall: Wear occurs between the piston and cylinder wall. Valves: Corrosion and aging of valve seals lead to sealing performance failure. Others: Additionally, modern vehicles are equipped with a crankcase ventilation system (PCV valve). If this malfunctions, it can also accelerate oil consumption. Different vehicles may produce different odors. Automotive repair experts note that normal exhaust should be colorless and odorless, while exhaust with unusual colors or smells may indicate underlying vehicle faults.
