For non-commercial family vehicles, also known as private cars, there is an exemption from inspection for the first 6 years after purchase. The vehicle does not need to go to the vehicle management office for inspection, but the owner is required to collect a sticker from the traffic police department every 2 years and have the vehicle registration certificate stamped. Automobiles can generally be divided into six categories based on their purpose: 1. Sedan: Also known as a passenger car, typically seating no more than 9 people (including the driver's seat). 2. Bus: Seating for more than 9 people (including the driver's seat), including urban buses, highway coaches, and tourist buses. 3. Truck: Commonly referred to as a lorry, mainly used for transporting goods. 4. Tractor: Specifically designed for towing trailers or semi-trailers. 5. Special transport vehicle: Designed according to the special requirements of the goods being transported, equipped with dedicated compartments and corresponding auxiliary equipment, such as dump trucks, tanker trucks, refrigerated trucks, bulk cement trucks, and container trucks. 6. Special-purpose vehicle: Primarily used for completing other tasks, such as ambulances, fire trucks, garbage trucks, sprinkler trucks, and various engineering vehicles.

What Causes a Car's Air Conditioner to Stop Blowing Air After Running for an Hour?

If a car's air conditioner suddenly stops blowing air, it could be due to the following malfunctions: 1. Blower Motor Failure: The blower motor is the core component responsible for air output in a car's air conditioning system. If it is damaged, the air conditioner will inevitably stop blowing air. Causes of blower motor failure may include overheating and damage to internal coils or capacitor failure. 2. Clogged Cabin Air Filter: A clogged cabin air filter is one of the reasons for blocked air ducts and the most common one. Outside air passes through the cabin air filter before entering the car, trapping various airborne particles, which can easily lead to clogging. If the air conditioner stops blowing air, you can remove the cabin air filter and check whether it is clean. 3. Control System Malfunction: Possible issues include faults with the air blend door, air conditioning computer, or control switches.

How Many Wheels Should Snow Chains Be Installed On?

Snow chains for cars can be installed on either two wheels or all four wheels. Installation varies by vehicle type: For front-wheel-drive vehicles, chains should be installed on the front two wheels, while rear-wheel-drive vehicles require them on the rear wheels. Notably, for four-wheel-drive vehicles, snow chains need to be installed on all four wheels. Risks of improper installation: If not installed correctly, snow chains may cause issues such as skidding or loss of balance. Therefore, it is essential to choose the appropriate snow chains based on your vehicle type and driving conditions, and ensure they are installed properly. This will better protect the driver's safety.

What should be noted when washing a motorcycle?

Here are the precautions for washing a motorcycle: 1. Start the vehicle after drying: Use the side stand to let the engine idle for 5-10 minutes to drain water from the exhaust pipe, then ride at medium speed for a few minutes or dry in a shaded area. Avoid direct exposure to sunlight. 2. Always let the hot engine cool down before washing: Suddenly rinsing hot engine parts, exhaust pipes, etc., with cold water can cause damage due to thermal contraction (as the principle of thermal expansion and contraction is well-known), potentially harming oil seals and leading to engine oil leakage. Many riders experience minor engine oil seepage due to this reason. It can also cause the chrome plating at the connection between the exhaust pipe and the engine to peel off, leading to oxidation and rust.

Is It Okay to Run Semi-Synthetic Oil for 9,000 Kilometers?

Semi-synthetic oil can be used for 9,000 kilometers, but be aware that oil burning may occur. Consequences of Oil Burning: It leads to incomplete combustion in the engine's combustion chamber, resulting in increased carbon deposits, reduced vehicle power performance, and sluggish acceleration. This also causes higher fuel consumption, more severe tailpipe emissions pollution—potentially exceeding standards—and increased financial burden on the car owner. Solutions for Oil Burning: Conduct a thorough inspection of the entire oil lubrication system, remove carbon deposits from combustion residues, ensure the intake and exhaust valves are unobstructed, and replace aged or damaged valve stem seals and crankshaft seals. Additionally, reduce the gap between engine cylinders to maintain optimal engine temperature.
