A new car should have three stickers: the compulsory traffic insurance sticker, the annual inspection sticker, and the annual road and bridge toll sticker. The regulations for vehicle annual inspections are as follows: 1. For passenger vehicles used for commercial purposes, inspections are required once a year within the first 5 years, and every 6 months thereafter; 2. For trucks and large or medium-sized non-commercial passenger vehicles, inspections are required once a year within the first 10 years, and every 6 months thereafter; 3. For small and mini non-commercial passenger vehicles, two inspections can be exempted within the first 6 years, with inspections required once a year after 6 years, and every 6 months after 15 years. Vehicle owners should apply for the inspection compliance sticker at the local vehicle management office within three months before the expiration of the current inspection period. For example, vehicles due for inspection in June can undergo the annual inspection in April, May, or June.

When I first bought my new car, I researched a lot of materials and found that new cars generally need to display three main decals: the Environmental Protection Inspection Compliance Label, the Compulsory Traffic Insurance Label, and the Vehicle Inspection Compliance Label. The environmental protection label is affixed to the windshield to prove that the emissions meet standards; the insurance label comes from the compulsory traffic insurance purchased; and the inspection label is issued by the vehicle management office, indicating that the vehicle has passed inspection. I remember when I first applied them, I wet the stickers to secure them in place properly, making sure they didn’t obstruct my view. It’s important to regularly check for any damage, and if they fall off, replace them promptly. Nowadays, there’s a trend toward digitalization, but physical decals are still mandatory. Total word count: about 170.

As a regular car owner who frequently drives new cars, there are three essential decals that must be displayed: the environmental protection decal, insurance decal, and annual inspection decal. The environmental decal ensures the vehicle's emissions comply with regulations; the insurance decal proves financial responsibility for compensation; and the annual inspection decal indicates the vehicle has passed inspection. All are affixed to the upper right corner of the windshield for easy checking—make sure the placement is correct. When applying them, avoid leaving air bubbles that could obstruct driving visibility. Regulations mandate all decals must be displayed; otherwise, traffic police can impose fines ranging from 50 to 200 yuan. Every time I get a new car, I confirm these decals are in hand before hitting the road—it brings peace of mind and saves hassle. I advise new buyers to inquire with the DMV for specific details. Total word count: approximately 160.

As a new car owner, I learned that after purchasing a car, you need to attach three labels: the environmental protection label, insurance label, and inspection label. They should be placed on the windshield where they don't obstruct the view. The insurance label must be securely attached to prevent it from blowing away. During my research, I found there are standard placement requirements. The environmental protection label is important as it relates to pollution control. Don't forget the inspection label to avoid issues during vehicle inspection. Before applying, simply clean the glass to ensure proper adhesion. Total word count is approximately 120.

What additional functions do car turn signals have?

Car turn signals have the function of indicating turns, as well as illumination and a form of communication function. Here is relevant information about car turn signals: Introduction: Car turn signals are lights that serve to alert pedestrians or vehicles in front of or behind the car when it is turning. Principle: The lamp uses a xenon tube, with a microcontroller controlling the circuit, enabling alternating left-right flashing without interruption. Types of flashers used: Depending on their structure, they can be divided into three types: resistance wire type, capacitor type, and electronic type. The resistance wire type can be further divided into thermal filament type (electrothermal) and vane type (spring bounce), while the electronic type can be divided into hybrid type (with relay contacts and electronic components) and fully electronic type (without relay). For example, the spring bounce flasher uses the principle of current thermal effect, with thermal expansion and contraction as the driving force, causing the spring plate to produce sudden movements to connect and disconnect the contacts, achieving light flashing.

What does 'car purchase includes license plate registration' mean?

Buying a car with license plate registration included means that the 4S dealership will assist in handling the vehicle license plate registration process, eliminating the need for the buyer to personally go through the procedure. Relevant information about vehicle license plate registration is as follows: The difference between having the 4S dealership handle the registration versus doing it yourself: Apart from the difference in cost, there is no other distinction. Using the 4S dealership's service will be more expensive than registering the plate yourself. If you have sufficient time or know someone at the vehicle management office, you can go to the vehicle management office to register the license plate yourself. If you are pressed for time and don't mind the additional service fee charged by the 4S dealership, you can let the 4S dealership handle the license plate registration for you. To register a vehicle license plate, you must prepare the following documents: Vehicle certificate of conformity, triplicate purchase invoice, vehicle purchase tax certificate (original and copy), insurance certificate, and original and photocopy of ID card. With these five documents, you can go to the vehicle management office to register and inspect the vehicle. The vehicle management office mainly checks the vehicle identification code, vehicle appearance, and vehicle warning triangle plate, so make sure to prepare these in advance.

Why is there no production date on BMW car glass?

It may be because the location was not found. The production date of BMW car glass is located in the lower left corner of the glass, where there is a series of symbols and numbers indicating the production date. Below are specific details about vehicle glass production dates: 1. Meaning of the symbols: On the bottom line, there are several small dots along with numbers. Taking "...4" as an example, the number 4 represents the year. If the black dots are before the 4, it indicates production in the first half of the year. The calculation formula is "7 - number of black dots". For example, 7-3=4, so the glass was produced in April 2004. If the black dots are after the 4, it indicates production in the second half of the year. The calculation formula is "13 - number of black dots". For example, "4..." means 13-3=10, indicating the glass was produced in October. 2. Different production dates: It is normal for the production dates of new car glass to vary. Different batches of glass naturally have different production dates, and this does not indicate that the car has been in an accident or has other issues.

When does the driving license points renew?

Driving license points are renewed every 12 months. The following is relevant information about C1 driving license: Development: The C1 driving license evolved from the C driving license. In 2004, according to the Road Traffic Safety Law and its supporting policies, the old version of C license (C driving license) held by drivers was automatically converted to B1 license in the vehicle management office's driving license database. If drivers did not want the conversion, they had to apply to the vehicle management office to downgrade to the new C1 license. Original holders of C licenses could convert to B1 (with the additional condition that the driver must be at least 21 years old), C1, or C2. Previously, there was only one type of C license, but later it was divided into C1 license for manual transmission "small passenger" vehicles, C2 license for automatic transmission "small passenger" vehicles, as well as C3 and C4 licenses. Later, C5 license was added. Driving requirements: According to the "Regulations on the Application and Use of Motor Vehicle Driving Licenses," the permitted driving scope of C1 driving license includes small and micro passenger cars, light and micro trucks; light, small, and micro special operation vehicles; and small passenger cars with no more than 9 passengers. According to this standard, C1 license holders cannot drive vehicles with more than 9 seats.

How to Quickly Understand Automotive Circuit Diagrams?

To quickly understand automotive circuit diagrams, follow these key steps: Grasp the Big Picture While Focusing on Details: First, carefully read the diagram notes multiple times. Cross-reference the circuit diagram to identify the approximate locations and quantities of electrical components in the vehicle, their purposes, and whether there are any unique or novel electrical devices—pay extra attention to these if present. Familiarize Yourself with Circuit Symbols: Compare the diagram notes with graphic symbols to become acquainted with the names of relevant components, their positions in the diagram, their quantities, and wiring connections. Remember the Circuit Loop Principle: Every circuit must form a complete electrical loop, which includes the power source, switch (or circuit breaker), electrical device (or electronic circuit), wiring, and connectors. The current flows from the positive terminal of the power source through wires, switches (or fuses) to the electrical load, then grounds and returns to the negative terminal of the same power source. Circuit-Specific Tips: Understand the role of switches in the circuit; note the status of switches or relays in the circuit; learn the arrangement of electrical devices in the circuit diagram; grasp the interconnections between different local circuits; familiarize yourself with the color-coding conventions of wiring harnesses; analyze typical circuits to generalize understanding.

What Causes the Abnormal Noise During Cold Start That Disappears After Warming Up?

Generally, the main sources of abnormal noise during cold start include poor sealing of engine valves, inadequate lubrication; excessively tight belts or bearing noise. If the abnormal noise persists after the engine has warmed up, it is recommended that the owner promptly take the vehicle to a repair shop for inspection to identify the specific cause. More details are as follows: 1. Normal abnormal noise: When a car is parked for more than a day, the engine's lubricating oil almost completely flows back into the oil pan. During a cold start, the oil pump cannot immediately establish oil pressure, and an oil film cannot form between components, especially in the cylinder head and internal valves. Without lubrication during a cold start, whether it's hydraulic lifters or mechanical rocker arms, there will be some valve clearance, resulting in a ticking noise. After the engine runs for a while, oil pressure is established, an oil film forms, and the oil temperature rises, the ticking noise disappears as the engine operates normally. This is a normal situation, and the owner need not worry. 2. Oil quality issues: Sometimes, they can also cause the engine to produce a ticking noise. Therefore, a ticking noise during a cold start is not a fault. However, if such abnormal noise occurs when the engine is warm, the owner should pay attention.
