Specific details are as follows: 1. For cars between 6 and 10 years old: Small cars between 6 and 10 years old require inspection every 2 years. The vehicle must undergo inspection at the testing station in the 6th and 8th years. 2. For private cars over 10 years old: The original inspection cycle still applies, i.e., cars between 10 and 15 years old require annual inspection, while those over 15 years old require inspection every 6 months. 3. For new personal cars with 7 seats or fewer (including 7 seats): No annual inspection is required within the first 6 years. After 6 years, annual inspection is required, and after 15 years, inspection every 6 months is required. Additional information: 1. In case of an accident: Newly purchased small family cars with 7 seats or fewer (including 7 seats) do not require inspection within the first 6 years, but in case of a major accident, inspection is still required. 2. Collecting the inspection sticker: Although new cars do not require inspection, the annual inspection sticker and environmental inspection compliance sticker must still be collected from the vehicle management office every 2 years. Bring the vehicle registration certificate and the current valid compulsory insurance policy to the designated window for collection, free of charge. 3. Collection time: The free annual inspection sticker and environmental sticker must also be collected within the specified time, which is up to 60 days before the vehicle registration date.

How to Remove Air from the Radiator?

Start the vehicle and let it warm up for 5-10 minutes. Wait until the cooling fan starts running, then the coolant level will drop. Refill the coolant and close the radiator cap. To completely eliminate air from the radiator, ensure proper operation during the next coolant replacement. Below are the steps: 1. Open the engine compartment when the engine is cold and check if the coolant level is sufficient. There are MAX and MIN level marks on the side of the coolant reservoir. If the level is below the MIN mark when the engine is cold, add coolant according to the marks on the reservoir. 2. Inspect all connecting pipes for cracks and signs of leakage, with special attention to the five-way pipe. 3. Drain the old antifreeze and flush the liquid channels with clean water. Let the water continuously flow through the engine cooling system, idle the engine for 3 to 5 minutes to circulate the water, and continue adding clean water until the water coming out is clear. 4. Let the new antifreeze flow quickly into the radiator. After draining for 1 hour, add the new antifreeze through the radiator hose. Add another bottle of antifreeze to the antifreeze reservoir until it is full. Start the vehicle and let it run for 10 minutes. As some air is expelled from the cooling system, the coolant level will drop. Add more antifreeze until the level is between the two marks.

What lights should be turned on at an intersection with poor lighting and no traffic signals?

You should turn on the headlights, position lights, and tail lights. According to Article 58 of the "Regulations for the Implementation of the Road Traffic Safety Law of the People's Republic of China": When driving at night without street lights, under poor lighting conditions, or in situations of low visibility such as fog, rain, snow, dust, or hail, motor vehicles should turn on the headlights, position lights, and tail lights. However, high beams should not be used when a following vehicle is driving close to the vehicle in front in the same direction. Here are some precautions for car light maintenance: 1. Avoid inferior bulbs: The performance of the bulbs is crucial as it affects nighttime illumination and driving safety. High-quality headlight bulbs are a strong guarantee for safe driving. 2. Perform regular maintenance: Cars require regular maintenance, such as checking whether the engine oil and oil filter need replacement and whether the brakes are functioning properly. Similarly, headlight bulbs also need regular inspection for integrity and timely replacement. Generally, after a car has traveled 50,000 kilometers or about 2 years, the brightness of the headlight bulbs may weaken. At this point, it is necessary to have them inspected at a 4S shop. If the brightness is insufficient, it is best to replace the bulbs promptly, preferably replacing both sides simultaneously to maintain uniform brightness.

What Causes the Headlights to Flicker When They Are Large and Bright?

Poor contact or wiring issues. Here are the specific details: Headlights: Also known as automotive front lights or LED daytime running lights, headlights serve as the eyes of a car, affecting the owner's external image and ensuring safe driving during nighttime or adverse weather conditions. Xenon Lights: In the automotive lighting field, xenon lights are also referred to as HID (High-Intensity Discharge) headlights. They replace traditional tungsten filaments with high-pressure xenon gas enclosed in quartz tubes, providing higher color temperature and more focused illumination. Since xenon lights use high-voltage current to activate xenon gas, creating an arc of light between two electrodes, they can continuously emit light through discharge.

Is it okay to sleep in the car with the air conditioning on and windows closed?

It is not advisable to sleep in the car with the air conditioning on and windows closed. In a sealed car, the air circulates internally through the air conditioning without being refreshed, leading to an increasing concentration of carbon monoxide inside the vehicle. Additionally, the exhaled carbon dioxide by passengers reduces oxygen levels rapidly, potentially causing nausea, unconsciousness within hours, and in severe cases, even suffocation and death. Below are the functions of a car air conditioning system: 1. Temperature Regulation: This is the primary function of car air conditioning. In summer, the cooling system produces cold air to lower the cabin temperature; in winter, except for large commercial vehicles that use independent combustion heaters, most vehicles utilize residual heat from the engine for heating. 2. Humidity Regulation: Humidity significantly affects passenger comfort. Cabin humidity should generally be maintained between 30% and 70%. Standard car air conditioning systems do not regulate humidity; only advanced luxury vehicles equipped with integrated heating and cooling systems can adjust humidity levels. 3. Airflow Regulation: The speed and direction of airflow greatly impact comfort. If air is blowing directly, the speed should be limited within a certain range when the temperature is appropriate. The airflow speed can be adjusted based on passengers' living environment, age, health, and temperature preferences. 4. Air Purification: The quality of cabin air is crucial for ensuring comfort.

Can I Schedule the Fourth Driving Test if I Failed the Second but Passed the Third?

If you failed the second driving test but passed the third (road driving skills test), you cannot register for the fourth driving test (the third test's safety and civilized driving knowledge exam). Legal provisions: According to Article 36 of the 'Regulations on the Application and Use of Motor Vehicle Driving Licenses': The vehicle management office shall arrange the test according to the scheduled test site and time. You can only take the fourth test after passing all previous tests:

Can Pearl White Paint Achieve Zero Color Difference?

It is unlikely. Here are the details: Paint materials: Ensuring zero color difference in pearl white paint mainly depends on the materials used, the paint formula, spraying conditions, and temperature control when painting metal and plastic parts. Any discrepancy in the aforementioned factors can lead to color differences. Although pearl white paint is more prone to color differences, it doesn't necessarily have to be done at a 4S shop—any reputable paint shop will suffice. Painting conditions: The conditions during painting are also a crucial factor affecting color differences, as the paint mixing technician and the painting technician are often different individuals. If different spray guns are used, or if the spraying techniques are inconsistent, the number of coating layers is not strictly defined, or the coverage of the base color is insufficient, color differences can occur. For such situations, strict process management should be implemented to ensure that spraying conditions and paint mixing templates are identical.
