New vehicles enjoy a 6-year exemption from inspection but require collecting the annual inspection sticker every two years. Here are the specific details: 1. Non-commercial passenger vehicles: For non-commercial passenger vehicles, inspections are required every 2 years within the first 6 years; after exceeding 6 years, an annual inspection is needed; for vehicles over 15 years old, inspections are required twice a year. Regarding the 6-year exemption for new vehicles, many mistakenly believe that the vehicle doesn't need annual inspection at all. In fact, you must go every two years, but the vehicle doesn't need to undergo the line inspection; simply collecting the environmental protection label suffices. 2. Failure to undergo annual inspection on time: If a vehicle is involved in an accident without undergoing the required annual inspection, the insurance company will not provide compensation. In cases where the insured vehicle hasn't passed the annual inspection as required or fails the inspection, or if the insured vehicle lacks other valid driving documents, the insurer will not bear the compensation responsibility.

What Causes Slight Vibration During Car Idling?

The reasons for slight vibration during car idling are as follows: 1. The engine mount, which serves as the engine's shock absorption system, is primarily responsible for absorbing minor vibrations during engine operation. When the engine mount ages, it can cause vibrations during idle. 2. Ignition system failure, such as spark plugs "misfiring," can lead to car idle vibrations. It is advisable to promptly visit a 4S shop or repair facility for maintenance. 3. A dirty throttle body or excessive carbon buildup in the fuel injectors can also cause car idle vibrations. Cleaning the fuel system is necessary, and using higher-quality fuel or adding fuel system cleaner during refueling is recommended.

What Are the Causes of High Pressure in Car Air Conditioning?

Here are the reasons for high pressure in car air conditioning: 1. Insufficient cooling water flow or excessively high water temperature. 2. Excessive buildup of dirt in the condenser copper tubes, leading to poor heat exchange efficiency. 3. Excessive refrigerant. 4. Air presence in the air conditioning system. 5. Expansion valve failure. 6. Cooling fan malfunction. 7. Engine overheating. Below is additional information on how to check car air conditioning pressure: 1. The red gauge indicates high pressure, while the blue gauge indicates low pressure. 2. The black circle inside the air conditioning pressure gauge typically shows normal refrigeration pressure between 0.4 to 0.5 MPa, and normal heating pressure between 1 to 1.5 MPa. 3. The outer ring unit of the air conditioning pressure gauge is MPa, representing the refrigerant's evaporation temperature, with the outermost scale displaying the refrigerant's pressure value.

What does the R gear mean?

R gear is the reverse gear. When using this gear, the vehicle must come to a complete stop before engaging it. It is strictly prohibited to shift from a forward gear into reverse while the vehicle is in motion to prevent gear damage. How to use the R gear: For models equipped with an automatic transmission, first press the brake pedal and then press the safety button on the gear lever or push down the gear selector to engage or disengage the R gear. The R gear can be engaged from P (Park) or N (Neutral), but switching between D (Drive) and R requires passing through N gear. In other words, to shift from D to R, you must first shift to N, which helps reduce the impact of reverse oil flow in the transmission during gear changes. For models with a manual transmission, first bring the vehicle to a complete stop, then press the clutch and brake, shift into R gear, and finally perform a semi-clutch operation with slight throttle input. The function of the R gear: Its primary function is to enable the vehicle to move in the opposite direction, allowing it to reverse. In manual transmission vehicles, it also serves as a hill-hold function. When parking on a downhill slope, the drive shaft can be mechanically locked by engaging the reverse gear. However, this should not be overly relied upon, as the vehicle's braking system is the primary method for stopping. Using reverse gear for braking carries certain risks.

How Often Should a Sedan Have Its Oil Changed?

Sedans should have their oil changed every 6 months, requiring at least two oil changes per year. Below are different oil change intervals: 1. Time: Conventional oil - 3-4 months; Full synthetic oil - 6-9 months. 2. Mileage: Conventional oil - 5,000 km (4,000 km for daily traffic congestion, dusty, extremely hot, or cold regions); Semi-synthetic oil - 7,500 km (6,000 km for daily traffic congestion, dusty, extremely hot, or cold regions); Full synthetic oil - 10,000 km (8,000 km for daily traffic congestion, dusty, extremely hot, or cold regions). 3. Long-distance vehicles (no traffic congestion, constant speed driving): Conventional oil - 5,000 km; Semi-synthetic - 7,500-10,000 km; Full synthetic - 10,000-15,000 km.

What are the hazards of driving with the handbrake on?

Driving with the handbrake on can wear out the handbrake pads, and excessive wear may lead to brake failure. The following are the impacts of driving without releasing the handbrake: 1. The most direct effect of driving with the handbrake on is accelerated wear of the brake discs and the hardening of the brake pads due to overheating, as well as the elongation of the handbrake cable, resulting in reduced braking performance. The burnt smell noticed by the driver comes from this, and in severe cases, smoke may even appear from the rear of the vehicle. 2. Driving for a long time with the handbrake on can cause the brake calipers to seize, brake fluid leakage, and excessively high brake fluid temperature, leading to a complete loss of braking function.
