According to motor vehicle management regulations, trucks must undergo annual inspections once a year within the first 10 years. After exceeding 10 years, they must be inspected every 6 months. Passenger vehicles in operation require annual inspections once a year within the first 5 years. After exceeding 5 years, they must be inspected every 6 months. Small and mini non-operational passenger vehicles must undergo biennial inspections within the first 6 years. After exceeding 6 years, annual inspections are required, and after exceeding 15 years, inspections must be conducted every 6 months. Regulations on inspection timing: The first annual inspection for a sedan is conducted when it reaches 6 years. Non-operational small and mini passenger vehicles, including family cars over 6 years but under 10 years old, require biennial inspections. For vehicles exactly 6 years old, the inspection process involves driving the vehicle to the inspection station with the owner's ID card, vehicle license, vehicle and vessel tax or tax exemption certificate, and compulsory traffic insurance policy. After passing the inspection, a certification form will be issued. Finally, this form along with the submitted documents should be presented at the relevant counter to obtain the annual inspection sticker.

How to Solve the Abnormal Noise During Acceleration in Mercedes-Benz E260?

Mercedes-Benz E260 acceleration abnormal noise causes and solutions: Fuel pump motor abnormal noise: When there is internal wear or impurities in the fuel pump motor, abnormal noise will occur when accelerating. Solution: Replace the fuel pump. Throttle body abnormal noise: Modern throttle bodies use electronic throttle control, where the motor naturally controls the opening and closing of the throttle valve. When the motor gears wear out, insufficient engagement causes abnormal noise. Excessive carbon deposits or sludge in the throttle body can also lead to abnormal noise. Solution: Clean the throttle body; if the motor is damaged, disassemble the throttle body and replace the servo motor. Accelerator pedal bearing lubrication issue causing abnormal noise: Clutch release bearing damage leads to incomplete clutch disc separation, causing abnormal noise. Solution: Apply grease to the bearing for lubrication. Remove the clutch and replace the release bearing.

What are the symptoms of abnormal noise from the Mercedes-Benz shock absorber top mount?

Abnormal noise from the car's shock absorber top mount has the following symptoms: Shock absorber noise: When the shock absorber top mount is severely worn or damaged, the vehicle's shock absorber will produce abnormal noise during operation. The steering may become tilted or the steering wheel may tilt when driving straight. Steering deviation: When the shock absorber top mount is damaged, the vehicle's steering may show slight deviation, difficulty in returning to center, and weak return force. Increased noise: Due to the lack of cushioning from the top mount, the shock absorber will transmit the absorbed vibrations and impacts directly from the frame to the passenger compartment during operation. There may also be abnormal noise when turning the steering wheel while stationary. Even if the shock absorber is not working, excessive wear or damage to the top mount can cause very noticeable abnormal noise when turning the steering wheel while stationary.

What is the difference between Sapphire Black and Carbon Black?

Apart from the difference in visual perception, there is basically no difference between Sapphire Black and Carbon Black in terms of paint resistance, hardness, cost, and price. Sapphire Black: The name of this paint is easily mistaken for "bluish-green", but the black paint not only highlights a low-key and steady temperament but also maintains a sense of freshness, which is why this color has gained the favor of many customers. Carbon Black: In contrast to Sapphire Black, Carbon Black is easily mistaken for pure black. However, this color actually has a blue tint within the black. Under good lighting conditions, the entire car appears as a gradient of black and blue, giving the paint a relatively high-end visual experience. However, it is not as steady and elegant as Sapphire Black, and the texture is not as strong in rainy weather or under weak lighting conditions.

Is a B-Service Mandatory for the Second Year Maintenance of a Mercedes-Benz?

Mercedes-Benz requires a B-service for the second year maintenance. The A-service for Mercedes-Benz typically involves changing the engine oil and oil filter, while the B-service includes replacing the engine oil and oil filter, as well as the air filter, cabin air filter, brake fluid, transmission fluid, and other items. A-service: This is the minor maintenance for the vehicle, referring to the basic maintenance tasks performed at the manufacturer's specified time or mileage to ensure vehicle performance, primarily including oil and filter replacement. B-service: This is the major maintenance for the vehicle, referring to the maintenance tasks performed at the manufacturer's specified time or mileage. The B-service includes the A-service, and typically, A and B services are alternated. For example, the first maintenance might be an A-service, followed by a B-service at the next maintenance. The third maintenance item is then determined based on the vehicle's specific usage. If everything is normal, an A-service is performed, and this alternation continues.

Where is the cabin air filter located in a 2008 LaCrosse?

One is located in the glove compartment on the passenger side, and the other is in the engine compartment. The steps to replace the cabin air filter in the glove compartment are as follows: 1.

Why can't the car start after the key gets wet?

The reasons why the car cannot start after the key gets wet are as follows: Steering wheel lock: The steering wheel cannot be turned, and the key cannot be twisted either. This is a simple anti-theft feature of the vehicle, which happens to be at the intersection of key unlocking and lock cylinder torque. Just gently turn the steering wheel clockwise (or counterclockwise) and then lightly twist the key to unlock it smoothly. Reminder: When parking, try to straighten the steering wheel before turning off the engine and removing the key. Incorrect gear position: For automatic transmission cars, the gear must be placed in "P" (some cars include "N" gear) to start. Some cars cannot even remove the key if the gear is not in the "P" position. Reminder: Develop a good habit of placing the gear in "P" before turning off the engine. Check the gear position before starting. Car malfunction: If the car still cannot start in the "P" position, or the dashboard shows an abnormal gear position, it is recommended to seek repairs promptly. It could be due to a damaged electronic gear sensor or electro-pneumatic valve.
