For a 2015 model year vehicle in 2021, it requires biennial inspection. Vehicles aged between 10 to 15 years need annual inspection, while those over 15 years old require semi-annual inspection. Below is relevant information about vehicle inspections: 1. Introduction to vehicle annual inspection: Vehicle annual inspection refers to mandatory testing for all vehicles with official license plates and registration certificates, equivalent to an annual physical examination for vehicles according to the "Technical Conditions for Motor Vehicle Operation Safety." The "Regulations for the Implementation of the Road Traffic Safety Law" and other documents stipulate relevant provisions for vehicle annual inspections. Some preparatory work is required before the inspection (such as knowing relevant information, online appointment, procedures, and vehicle precautions) to ensure smooth passage. There are initial and periodic inspections, along with some related policies. 2. Purpose of vehicle annual inspection: Vehicle annual inspections can promptly eliminate potential safety hazards, encourage enhanced vehicle maintenance, and reduce the occurrence of traffic accidents.

What is the reference point position for curve turning?

When the midpoint of the car hood touches the right yellow line, gradually turn the steering wheel to the left, starting with half a turn. Keep the left corner of the hood aligned with the yellow line. If the left corner is about to go beyond the yellow line, turn the wheel a bit more. If the left corner cannot reach the yellow line, slightly turn the wheel back, making continuous minor adjustments. Below are additional details: 1. Handling method for steering failure: The driver should remain calm, immediately release the accelerator pedal gently, and let the vehicle continue at a low gear while firmly and evenly pulling the handbrake. If the speed decreases significantly, apply the foot brake to bring the vehicle to a gradual stop. If the vehicle is at high speed, especially when the front and rear wheels are not aligned, first use the handbrake to reduce speed, then apply the emergency brake. 2. Causes of body resonance during high-speed driving: Common causes include a twisted or deformed driveshaft, or loose, dry, or rusted universal joints. Since these components are located under the vehicle, they are often overlooked during maintenance. Therefore, during each maintenance session, ensure that the staff applies grease to all applicable parts.

What to Do When the Car Battery Is Dead and the Car Won't Start?

Here are the solutions for when the car won't start due to a dead battery: 1. Charge the battery. 2. Replace the car battery. 3. Push-start the car: When using this method, be sure to maintain a safe distance. 4. Jump-start the car: When connecting jumper cables, ensure the positive terminal is connected to positive and negative to negative. 5. Towing: Use another vehicle to tow-start the car. Below are the impacts of a dead car battery: 1. It shortens the battery's lifespan; 2. It prevents the car from starting and causes electrical devices inside the car to malfunction; 3. It may cause data loss in the vehicle's control modules during startup, leading to operational issues; 4. It can overheat the starter motor, reducing its lifespan; 5. Prolonged battery depletion can damage the alternator.

What Causes the Paint Surface to Appear Hazy and Dull After Polishing?

This layer of white haze may be caused by not promptly wiping off the polishing wax with a cloth after polishing. You can try using wax and a damp cloth to see if it can be wiped off. If that doesn't work, it is recommended to visit a 4S store for professional polishing by a technician. Here is some additional information: 1. Other causes of haze: The construction process and environment may have excessive humidity, or there may be moisture in the air compressor. If the environmental humidity is too high, a small amount (not exceeding 15%) of white water can be added for spraying. Ensure all moisture is drained from the compressor before spraying. The use of inappropriate thinners that evaporate too quickly can cause the surface temperature of the paint film to drop sharply, leading to moisture condensation on the film. 2. Prevention methods for whitening, hazing, and blurring after painting: Whenever possible, avoid painting in rainy, cold, or humid weather and allow the paint film to dry naturally. Otherwise, use a non-hazing thinner. Use high-quality thinners or thinners of the appropriate grade. Reduce the pressure of the compressed air to minimize the cooling effect, ensure proper ventilation and heating in the painting room, and avoid drafts.

How many degrees do the wheels turn when the steering wheel is at 90 degrees?

When the car's steering wheel is turned to full lock, the front wheels typically turn between 25-30 degrees, while for rear-wheel-drive vehicles, this range is between 30-35 degrees. Overview: Automobile tires are one of the crucial components of a vehicle, directly contacting the road surface and working in conjunction with the suspension system to absorb shocks during driving, ensuring excellent ride comfort and smooth operation. Tires are fundamental to a car's performance. Filling tires with nitrogen was once a privilege reserved for professional racing cars. However, today, specialized tire shops and larger automotive service providers offer tire maintenance and nitrogen filling services. Functions: Tires ensure optimal adhesion between the wheels and the road surface, enhancing the vehicle's traction, braking, and off-road capabilities. They bear the weight of the car, and the critical role tires play in automotive performance is increasingly recognized.

What Causes the Steering Wheel Not to Return to Center After Turning?

Steering wheel not returning to center after turning may be caused by damage to the external steering gear. Below is relevant information about the external steering gear: Introduction: In vehicles equipped with power steering systems, the energy required for steering is primarily provided by the hydraulic (or pneumatic) energy from an engine (or motor)-driven oil pump (or air compressor), with only a small portion coming from the driver's physical effort under normal conditions. Types: Based on the transmission medium, power steering gears can be categorized into pneumatic and hydraulic types. Pneumatic power steering gears are not suitable for extra-heavy-duty trucks because the working pressure of pneumatic systems is relatively low (generally not exceeding 0.7MPa), making the components excessively large when used in heavy vehicles. In contrast, hydraulic power steering gears can operate at pressures exceeding 10MPa, resulting in much smaller component sizes. Hydraulic systems operate quietly, with minimal response lag, and can absorb shocks from uneven road surfaces. As a result, hydraulic power steering gears have been widely adopted in various types of vehicles.

What to Do When a Car Battery Won't Charge?

Check if the battery is low on electrolyte. If the electrolyte has dried up, first add distilled water. After adding enough, do not replace the battery's filler caps. Connect a 220V ordinary incandescent bulb in series with the battery and then to a household 220V AC power source to see if the bulb can light up normally. If the bulb lights up normally, continue supplying power for about 1 minute before disconnecting. Wait a few minutes, then connect again for 1 minute. Repeat the above step three to five times, then connect the battery to the charger for a normal 15-hour charging session.
