If you fail the driving test five times, you will no longer be allowed to retake the exam and will need to reapply. Here are the relevant details about the driving test: 1. Exam Regulations: Each subject can be taken once, and if you fail, you are allowed one retake. If you do not attend the retake or fail the retake, the current exam session will be terminated, and the applicant must schedule a new exam. However, for Subject 2 and Subject 3 (road driving skills), the new exam must be scheduled at least 10 days later. The number of retakes for Subject 2 and Subject 3 road driving skills exams cannot exceed five. If you fail the fifth retake, all previously passed subjects will be invalidated. 2. Validity Period: The driving test skill certificate is valid for three years. If it exceeds three years, it becomes invalid, and you will need to reapply for the exam.

When I was getting my driver's license, I specifically studied the regulations. For the on-site driving test (Subject 2) and road driving test (Subject 3), each has five examination attempts. Each attempt includes two trial opportunities—for example, if you fail the first time, you can immediately retake it once. If you still don't pass after the fifth retake, you have to start all over again—your previously passed Subject 1 results become invalid, the registration fee is forfeited, and you have to repay and retake the theoretical exam. However, there are no limits on the number of attempts for the theoretical exam (Subject 1) or the safety and civics knowledge test (Subject 4). I know a guy who failed Subject 3 four times but passed on his last attempt under pressure—now he drives steadily.

What is the reason for brake noise after replacing brake pads?

After replacing the brake pads, the reason for brake noise is that the brake pads have not yet adapted to the brake disc and are in the break-in period. Brake pads, also known as automotive brake linings, refer to the friction materials fixed on the brake drum or brake disc that rotates with the wheel. The friction lining and friction block bear external pressure to generate friction, thereby achieving the purpose of vehicle deceleration. Precautions for purchasing brake pads: 1. Check the friction coefficient, which determines the braking torque of the brake pads. Too high a coefficient can cause wheel lock-up, loss of directional control, and burning of the pads during braking, while too low a coefficient results in longer braking distances. 2. Consider safety. Brake pads generate high temperatures during braking. At high speeds or during emergency braking, the friction coefficient of the lining decreases under high temperatures. 3. Check for comfort, including braking feel, noise, dust, smoke, and odor.

Should the Verna use 20 or 30 engine oil?

The Verna can use fully synthetic 20 engine oil. Engine oil change interval: Most engine oils abroad are changed at 10,000 kilometers, while domestic manufacturers in China generally advance the change interval to 7,500 kilometers or even 5,000 kilometers due to poor road conditions. However, in reality, as long as the oil color is clear, the oil level is not below the marked minimum level, and there are no special circumstances, the engine oil does not need to be changed so frequently. Functions of engine oil: Cooling and temperature reduction, sealing and leak prevention, cleaning, shock absorption and buffering, lubrication to reduce wear, rust and corrosion prevention, and component protection. Engine oil, also known as engine lubricating oil, is composed of base oil and additives. Base oil is the main component of lubricating oil, determining its basic properties, while additives can compensate for and improve the shortcomings of base oil performance.

What does the C1 Subject 2 test include?

The C1 Subject 2 driving test primarily consists of five items: reverse parking into a garage, parallel parking, curve driving, right-angle turning, and hill start and stop. For automatic transmission (C2) vehicles, the hill start and stop is not included in Subject 2. A C1 driver's license permits the holder to drive small and micro passenger vehicles. C1 test comprises four subjects in total, with the other subjects as follows: Subject 1: Mainly tests basic road traffic knowledge; Subject 3: Tests 16 driving skills including preparation before starting, starting, and straight-line driving; Subject 4: Tests safe and civilized driving operation requirements, similar to Subject 1, it is a theoretical test. Subject 2 test tips: Before starting the car during the Subject 2 test, ensure the seat height is adjusted correctly, adjust the rearview mirror for a broad field of vision, and fasten the seatbelt. During the test, do not stop unless the system announces a failure. For parallel parking, find the right angle quickly, steer the wheel promptly, react swiftly, and coordinate with the vehicle's speed. For hill start, remember to pull the handbrake, turn on the left turn signal when starting, release the handbrake, stabilize the clutch, and gently press the accelerator while releasing the clutch to avoid stalling or rolling back. For right-angle turning, identify the reference point before turning and coordinate with the vehicle's speed. For curve driving (S-curve), slow down and proceed cautiously. For reverse parking, control the speed, identify the reference point, and make minor adjustments if deviations are observed in the rearview mirror. Subject 2 scoring deductions: Reverse parking: Vehicle body crossing the line results in a 100-point deduction and failure; incomplete parking results in a 100-point deduction and failure; stopping midway deducts 5 points each time; failure to complete within the allotted time results in a 100-point deduction and failure. Parallel parking: Vehicle body crossing the line after stopping results in a 100-point deduction and failure; stopping midway deducts 5 points each time; tires or body touching the curb deducts 10 points; failure to complete within the allotted time results in a 100-point deduction and failure. Curve driving: Wheels crossing the road edge line results in failure; stopping midway results in failure; not using second gear or above deducts 5 points. Right-angle turning: Wheels crossing the road edge line results in failure; stopping midway deducts 5 points each time. Hill start and stop: If the front bumper or motorcycle front axle is not aligned with the pole line and exceeds 50cm, it results in failure; exceeding the allotted start time results in failure; if the front bumper or motorcycle front axle is not aligned with the pole line but does not exceed 50cm, 10 points are deducted; if the vehicle body is 30-50cm from the road edge line, 10 points are deducted; failure to engage the parking brake deducts 10 points.

What type of engine oil should be used for the Besturn X80?

The original engine oil specification for the Besturn X80 is fully synthetic SM5W40, and brands such as Mobil and Shell can be used. Engine oil replacement cycle: Most foreign engine oils are replaced at 10,000 kilometers. However, due to poor road conditions in China, domestic manufacturers generally recommend replacing the oil earlier, at 7,500 kilometers or even as early as 5,000 kilometers. In reality, as long as the oil remains clear, the oil level does not fall below the minimum mark, and there are no special circumstances, the oil does not need to be replaced so frequently. Functions of engine oil: Cooling and temperature reduction, sealing and leak prevention, cleaning, shock absorption and buffering, lubrication to reduce wear, rust and corrosion prevention, and component protection. Engine oil, also known as motor oil, is composed of base oil and additives. The base oil is the main component of the lubricant, determining its basic properties, while the additives compensate for and improve any deficiencies in the base oil's performance.
