If the new car is a small or micro non-commercial passenger vehicle, it requires an annual inspection after exceeding 6 years. Introduction to Annual Inspection: Motor vehicle inspection includes three categories: motor vehicle safety technical inspection, motor vehicle emission inspection, and comprehensive vehicle performance inspection. Annual inspection, also known as annual check-up, refers to the safety inspection conducted every year or every two years on a vehicle. This includes a comprehensive check of components such as the horn, brakes, axle weight, chassis, ignition system, lighting system, exhaust system, license plate installation, etc. Annual Inspection Process: Upon arrival at the inspection station, the first step is the exterior inspection. The owner needs to park the vehicle in the designated area for exterior inspection, prepare the fire extinguisher and triangular warning sign, open the vehicle's engine hood and trunk, and wait for the staff to conduct the inspection. After payment, the owner must submit their ID card and vehicle license to the staff, who will then enter the vehicle's annual inspection information into the system. Once these steps are completed, the owner can take the form and wait for the online inspection. If the online inspection is passed, the owner can proceed to the final procedures at the general inspection office.

The Function and Working Principle of Automotive High-Pressure Fuel Pump

The function and working principle of the automotive high-pressure fuel pump are as follows: 1. Function of the high-pressure fuel pump: Its role is to increase the fuel pressure for high-pressure injection to achieve atomization. The main applications of the high-pressure fuel pump are as a power source for hydraulic devices such as jacks, heading machines, extruders, and cotton gins. The fuel outlet of the high-pressure pump enters the oil cooler, and after passing through the oil cooler, it enters the oil filter. From the oil filter, it splits into two paths: one is depressurized for supply, and the other becomes control oil. There may also be one or two accumulators in the oil circuit. 2. Working principle: The high-pressure fuel pump serves as the interface between the high-pressure and low-pressure fuel circuits. Its function is to generate fuel pressure in the common rail by controlling the fuel output. Under all operating conditions, it is primarily responsible for supplying sufficient high-pressure fuel to the common rail.

What brand are the brake pads for the Volvo S90?

The brake pads for the Volvo S90 are manufactured by Jurid, a German brand. In a vehicle's braking system, brake pads are the most critical safety components, as they play a decisive role in the effectiveness of braking. Therefore, high-quality brake pads act as protectors for both the driver and the vehicle. The following situations indicate that brake pads need replacement: 1. Typically, a new set of brake pads has a thickness of approximately 1.5 cm. When visual inspection reveals that the thickness has worn down to less than 0.5 cm, replacement is necessary. 2. If a metallic scraping or hissing sound is heard when lightly applying the brakes, the brake pads must be replaced immediately. 3. If braking performance deteriorates, replacement is essential to prevent serious accidents.

What damage does refueling without turning off the engine cause to the car?

Refueling without turning off the engine generally does not cause any adverse consequences to the vehicle, but it poses certain safety hazards. The vehicle's electrical equipment remains operational, and the engine is running at high temperatures. If there is any electrical leakage, it could potentially lead to a fire. Therefore, when refueling the car, it is essential to remember to turn off the engine and power, and only restart the vehicle after refueling is complete and the fuel tank cap is securely closed. Below is more information on refueling precautions: 1. Never refuel the car before turning off the engine. 2. If the attendant has not turned off the fuel nozzle, the driver must never start the car, as this could easily cause a fire. 3. It is best not to refuel during thunderstorms. This is also a safety consideration to prevent lightning strikes and avoid fires. Since automotive fuel is highly flammable, during refueling, flammable fuel vapors can easily disperse into the surrounding air. If struck by lightning, the consequences would be unimaginable.
