New car temporary license plates can be issued up to 3 times, and applications must be made to the vehicle management office. However, the maximum number of applications is 3 times, totaling 21 days. Depending on local regulations, the duration of temporary license plate use may be extended to 30 days in some areas. More relevant information is as follows: 1. The use of temporary license plates for new cars must not exceed 15 days. During these 15 days, the car owner should promptly apply for a formal license plate from the vehicle management department. If the formal license plate is not obtained after the expiration, penalties such as vehicle detention and point deductions may be imposed. 2. The paper motor vehicle license plate that permits temporary road use of motor vehicles, also known as a temporary driving license plate, is a temporary vehicle driving certificate issued by the public security vehicle management department for newly purchased vehicles before formal registration.

How Long Does a New Car Battery Last?

New car batteries typically last 3 to 4 years. Newer vehicles tend to be more battery-efficient because their starters and alternators function better, allowing the battery to charge fully. As a car ages and requires starter or alternator replacements, owners often opt for non-OEM refurbished parts due to significant price differences between genuine and aftermarket components in the market. This practice can lead to premature battery failure. The battery is an essential component of a vehicle, categorized into traditional lead-acid batteries and maintenance-free types. Modern batteries use lead-calcium alloy grids, which significantly reduce water decomposition during charging and minimize water evaporation. Their sealed construction also limits sulfuric acid gas emissions. Compared to conventional batteries, these require no fluid refills, feature better terminal connections, and maintain charge for extended periods.

What to Do When the Wheel is Locked?

Solutions for a locked wheel: 1. Long-term parking: If the parking brake is applied when there is water in the brake drum after washing the car or rain, the wheel may lock up after prolonged parking. You can use the vehicle's power to move the tire; 2. Stuck brake master cylinder cup that does not return: The solution is to clean the entire brake system and replace the brake master cylinder cup; 3. Brake caliper not returning: This can be fixed by sanding and applying grease. If the caliper itself is faulty, it may need to be replaced; 4. Brake pads frozen due to ice: Use hot water to melt the ice or gently tap the brake drum with a blunt object like a hammer; 5. Overheating from prolonged braking causing the brake pads to not separate: Depending on the situation, the brake pads may need to be sanded or replaced.

High Beam or Low Beam on Highways?

Highway high beam and low beam usage: 1. Because highways have central barriers with good light-blocking properties, and considering the high speeds on highways, low beams provide very limited visibility range - high beams are used in most situations; 2. It's advisable to briefly turn off high beams before overtaking to clearly indicate your position and overtaking intention to the vehicle ahead; 3. On some downhill sections, high beams from vehicles on the slope can affect oncoming traffic - in these cases when you notice oncoming vehicles flashing their high beams, switch to low beams. Automotive headlights, also known as vehicle front lights or LED daytime running lights, serve as the 'eyes' of a car. They not only affect the owner's external image but are also crucial for safe driving at night or in poor weather conditions.

How to Start a Motorcycle Without a Battery?

Methods to start a motorcycle without a battery: 1. Use the kick starter lever to start the motorcycle; 2. If the motorcycle does not have a kick starter, you can engage the third gear with the clutch, push the motorcycle to its maximum speed, then release the clutch to start the engine; 3. Find a downhill slope, shift to third gear in advance, hold the clutch lever, increase the speed by going downhill, and then release the clutch—the motorcycle will usually start. Motorcycles are powered by gasoline engines and are two- or three-wheeled vehicles steered by handlebars. They are lightweight, flexible, fast, and widely used for patrolling, passenger and cargo transport, as well as for sports equipment. Broadly speaking, motorcycles can be categorized into street bikes, road racing motorcycles, off-road motorcycles, cruisers, touring bikes, etc.

How often should a car be started if left unused for a long time?

If a car is left unused for an extended period, it should be started for about 10 minutes once a week. When a car remains inactive for a long time, the engine oil stops flowing and fails to lubricate various components, leading to oxidation and rust. This can also affect the engine's normal operation after startup. Additionally, prolonged parking can drain the battery, making it difficult to start the car and causing the anti-theft system to malfunction. Precautions for long-term car storage: 1. Park the car on a flat surface to prevent tire deformation or uneven fluid distribution that may affect normal operation; 2. If possible, store the car in a garage or underground parking to avoid sun damage and protect the paint; 3. Before driving a car that has been unused for a long time, warm it up for about 10 minutes to ensure proper lubrication of all engine components.

Is Frequent Oil Change Beneficial?

Frequent oil changes are not beneficial. The reason is that new engine oil is alkaline to neutralize acidic substances produced by sulfur in fuel and prevent engine damage from these acids. The alkalinity of engine oil is highest when unused and gradually decreases during use. Alkaline engine oil can actually harm the engine. The optimal performance period for high-quality engine oil is not at the beginning or end of its usage cycle, but rather in the middle phase. Changing oil prematurely means abandoning its peak performance stage. The most important and beneficial maintenance measure for the engine is not frequent oil changes, but choosing high-quality engine oil. Engine oil, also known as engine lubricant, performs functions such as lubrication, friction reduction, auxiliary cooling, sealing, leak prevention, rust and corrosion protection, and shock absorption. It is often referred to as the 'blood' of a car.
