Racing motorcycles can exceed 300 miles, while motorcycles used for scientific experiments (specifically designed for speed testing) can reach up to approximately 700 miles. The break-in mileage for a new motorcycle is around 1,600 kilometers. Identifying Mileage by Production Date: The odometer can "lie," but the production date won't. The vehicle's registration date can be checked through the engine number, chassis number, and license plate number from the public security department. Additionally, the production date of the vehicle can be found on the metal plate in the engine compartment. Altering these details is much more difficult compared to tampering with the odometer. Identifying Mileage by Car Tires: Under normal driving conditions, a tire's lifespan is about 40,000 kilometers. For a car that has traveled 20,000 kilometers, the tire tread should be worn down to approximately half its original depth. Conversely, if a car shows only 10,000 kilometers on the odometer but the tires are nearly bald, the mileage is likely falsified. Identifying Mileage by Interior: The car's interior can provide valuable clues about its "age." Through regular use, the steering wheel, gear shift, and buttons on the dashboard become smooth from repeated contact. A new car's interior, however, should feel rough and grainy. If a car with very low mileage has a polished interior, it's likely an older vehicle in disguise.

Can Modified Car Exhaust Be Registered?

Modifying the exhaust pipe can be registered, but it is not allowed. Therefore, even if the owner actively registers the modified exhaust pipe, the traffic police department will order it to be restored within half a month. Car modifications are very common in daily life, mainly including body modifications and performance modifications. Before modifying a licensed vehicle, the owner must register and declare the modifications to the vehicle management office. The modification can only proceed after the technical report is reviewed and approved by the vehicle management office. Legal car modifications include the following: Body modifications: Body modifications can be achieved through decals or wraps, but the area covered must not exceed 30% of the vehicle's surface to be considered legal. If this limit is exceeded, approval from relevant authorities is required. Color modifications: In recent years, changing the vehicle's color has become popular. However, the owner must complete the modification registration with the vehicle management office within ten days and obtain a new driver's license. Most importantly, the color must not be changed to those reserved for national administrative law enforcement vehicles. Modifications to the body, frame, or engine: These are only permitted if the original parts are irreparably damaged or have quality issues. Otherwise, such modifications are illegal.

What Causes One Car Cooling Fan to Spin While the Other Doesn't?

Car cooling fans may have one spinning while the other doesn't due to reasons such as insufficient coolant temperature or a faulty relay. Here are the specific details: Insufficient Coolant Temperature: Most modern car radiator fans operate based on electronic temperature control. Typically, the fan will only start spinning when the engine coolant reaches the required temperature. If the temperature is too low, the radiator fan won't activate. Therefore, if one radiator fan isn't working, the first step is to check whether the coolant temperature meets the requirement. Faulty Relay: If the coolant temperature is adequate but the radiator fan still doesn't operate, the issue might lie with the fan relay. A malfunctioning relay can prevent the radiator fan from functioning properly. Thermostat Switch Problem: If neither of the above issues is present, the next step is to inspect the thermostat switch. Sometimes, faults in this component can also affect the operation of the car's radiator fan, so it's important to examine it as well.

Is it necessary to keep a life jacket in a car?

It is not necessary to keep a life jacket in a car, but the vehicle must be equipped with a reflective vest, a fire extinguisher, a warning triangle, and optionally, jumper cables, a seatbelt cutter/window breaker, and a tow rope. If space permits, you can also keep windshield washer fluid and a few bottles of mineral water. The following explains why a life jacket is not needed: No time to use: There is no time to put on a life jacket. If the vehicle is involved in an accident and submerged in water, there won't be enough time to open the trunk and retrieve a life jacket. Space not connected: Many vehicles have no connection between the interior and the trunk, so keeping a life jacket inside the car serves no purpose.

Will changing car color without filing be penalized?

Altering the vehicle body color without filing will result in a warning or fine penalty according to Article 56 of the "Motor Vehicle Registration Regulations", and the vehicle may be impounded to restore its original color. As stipulated in Article 6 of Chapter 2 of the "Road Traffic Safety Law", if the color change area of a motor vehicle does not exceed 30%, no change registration is required. Conversely, if it exceeds 30%, filing is necessary, and registration must be completed within 10 days after the color change. Precautions for vehicle color changes: Before changing the color of a motor vehicle, it is necessary to consult with the vehicle management office where the vehicle is registered to confirm whether color changes are permitted in the region. If the region does not support this method, filing procedures cannot be processed after the change, and the vehicle must be restored to its original color. Documents required for applying to change the vehicle body color: "Motor Vehicle Change Registration Application Form". Identity proofs of the motor vehicle owner and agent. Motor vehicle registration certificate. Motor vehicle driving license. Additionally, according to the "Motor Vehicle Registration Regulations", owners are no longer required to apply to the vehicle management office in advance. They can first change the vehicle color, install body kits, replace the engine, etc., and then apply for change registration with the vehicle management office. According to Article 10, registered motor vehicles must apply for change registration with the local vehicle management office in the following cases: Changing the body color. Replacing the engine. Replacing the body or frame. Replacing the entire vehicle due to quality issues. Changing the use nature, such as converting a commercial vehicle to non-commercial or vice versa. The motor vehicle owner's residence moves out of or into the jurisdiction of the vehicle management office. Furthermore, according to Article 15 of the "Road Traffic Safety Law of the People's Republic of China": Police cars, fire trucks, ambulances, and engineering rescue vehicles must spray emblem patterns and install alarms and signal lights as required. Other motor vehicles must not spray, install, or use emblem patterns, alarms, or signal lights exclusive to or similar to those of the aforementioned vehicles. Article 56 of the "Motor Vehicle Registration Regulations" states that if the body color is changed without completing the change registration as required, the public security traffic management department will impose a warning or fine. The vehicle may also be impounded to restore its original color.

What Causes Water to Overflow from the Car Radiator?

Water overflowing from the car radiator is caused by the engine shutting down under high load or not using antifreeze. Below are the detailed reasons and solutions: Engine shutting down under high load: The cooling water pump, radiator fan, etc., stop running, preventing heat dissipation. Only the water around the cylinder block is used to dissipate the heat from the cylinder block. A sudden high-load shutdown causes water to overflow from the diesel engine radiator. Solution: Wait for the heat to dissipate before opening the radiator cap. Not using antifreeze: If this situation occurs during short-term driving, using tap water will cause scale buildup in the radiator and various pipes, leading to poor coolant circulation. This results in severe air trapping in the radiator when the water pump stops working, and prolonged use can damage the engine. Solution: Remove scale buildup from the radiator, repeatedly flush the pipes with clean water, check the seals of rubber pipes and interface clamps, and then add antifreeze with cleaning properties.
