How often a new car should undergo annual inspection depends on the type of vehicle: 1. Non-commercial vehicles such as small cars are exempt from inspection for the first 6 years, but every 2 years, the owner must submit proof of compulsory traffic insurance and vehicle and vessel tax payment to the vehicle management office, then apply directly to the traffic management department for the inspection compliance mark. The specific annual inspection month can be found on the vehicle's registration certificate; 2. Non-commercial small cars over 15 years old require inspection every 6 months; 3. Commercial passenger vehicles require annual inspection every year; 4. Commercial passenger vehicles over 15 years old require inspection every 6 months; 5. Large commercial passenger vehicles and trucks under 10 years old require annual inspection every year.

The new vehicle inspection cycle has been relaxed now, and I just finished handling this matter. For the first six years after buying a new car, you only need to apply for the inspection emblem every two years, without having to drive the car to the inspection station at all. It's not until the sixth year that an on-site inspection is required, after which it becomes an annual check. My SUV just turned six years old last year, and it took only half an hour at the inspection station to complete items like lights and brakes. Remember to bring your vehicle license and insurance policy, as many places now allow advance appointments to avoid queuing. However, if the vehicle has been involved in a major accident, it must be inspected on time. Be sure not to delay to avoid fines and penalty points, and to prevent trouble during random checks.

Should the Haval H2 use 92 or 95 octane gasoline?

According to the official vehicle manual recommendation, the Haval H2 should use 92 octane gasoline. In addition to checking the suitable gasoline grade in the vehicle manual, you can also find it on the fuel tank cap, which will also be marked. Generally, the gasoline grade can also be determined based on the engine's compression ratio. Vehicles with an engine compression ratio between 8.6-9.9 should choose 92 octane gasoline, while those with a compression ratio between 10.0-11.5 should opt for 95 octane gasoline. If the compression ratio is higher, 98 octane gasoline should be selected. However, with the use of some new technologies nowadays, the gasoline grade cannot be solely determined by the compression ratio. A high compression ratio can also be tuned to use lower octane gasoline because, apart from the compression ratio, other factors such as ignition timing, turbocharging technology, and Atkinson cycle technology also play a role. Generally, the higher the gasoline grade, the higher the octane number and the better the anti-knock performance. 92 octane gasoline contains 92% isooctane and 8% n-heptane, while 95 octane gasoline contains 95% isooctane and 5% n-heptane. If the Haval H2 occasionally uses the wrong gasoline grade, simply switch back to the correct grade after using it up. However, long-term use of the wrong gasoline grade can have the following effects: For vehicles recommended to use lower octane gasoline, using a higher octane grade will not cause damage, but the increase in octane number will alter the fuel's ignition point, leading to delayed combustion in the engine. This means both the engine's power output and thermal efficiency will decrease, resulting in poorer performance as experienced in practice. For vehicles recommended to use higher octane gasoline, using a lower octane grade can cause engine knocking. Because the octane number is too low, the gasoline's ignition point decreases, causing it to ignite prematurely during the compression stroke. If combustion occurs before the spark plug ignites during the compression stroke, resistance will arise in the upward stroke. This resistance makes the engine run very unstably. If it's mild knocking, it only increases noise without significant damage to the engine. However, if noticeable knocking occurs, it indicates severe engine conditions. The vibrations not only affect driving stability but also cause abnormal wear on the pistons and cylinders, and in severe cases, can lead to cylinder scoring.

What is the most feared substance entering an engine?

The most feared are granular impurities, as they can render the engine ineffective. Specific details are as follows: 1. Automotive engine: It is the device that provides power for a car, serving as the heart of the vehicle, determining its power, fuel efficiency, stability, and environmental friendliness. Depending on the power source, automotive engines can be classified into diesel engines, gasoline engines, electric vehicle motors, and hybrids, among others. 2. Working principle: A four-stroke gasoline engine mixes air and gasoline in a certain proportion to form a good combustible mixture, which is drawn into the cylinder during the intake stroke. The mixture is compressed, ignited, and burned to generate thermal energy. The high-temperature and high-pressure gas acts on the top of the piston, pushing it to perform reciprocating linear motion, thereby outputting mechanical energy externally through the connecting rod and crankshaft flywheel mechanism. A four-stroke gasoline engine completes one working cycle during the intake stroke, compression stroke, power stroke, and exhaust stroke.

What is the model of the low beam bulb for Haval H6?

Haval H6 low beam bulb model is H7/55W, with the base version equipped with halogen headlights, and the mid-to-high trim models featuring LED headlights. The differences between halogen and LED headlights are as follows: 1. Halogen Headlights: Halogen headlights are essentially an upgraded version of incandescent bulbs. By adding halogen gas, they solve the problems of short lifespan and blackening associated with incandescent bulbs. The advantages of halogen lights include low cost, ease of production, and stronger penetration compared to xenon and LED lights due to their yellow light. However, the drawbacks are lower brightness and relatively shorter lifespan. 2. LED Headlights: The light emission principles of halogen and xenon headlights both involve converting electrical energy into thermal energy, which is then transformed into light energy. In contrast, LED headlights directly convert electrical energy into light energy through LED chips, skipping the thermal conversion step. Therefore, LED headlights are also known as cold light sources, with operating temperatures typically ranging between 50 to 70 degrees Celsius. In terms of brightness, LED headlights are comparable to new xenon lights, providing ample brightness. Additionally, they are energy-efficient, stable in performance, and start instantly without delay. LED headlights can also be shaped into stylish forms, making them very aesthetically pleasing. Due to their high brightness, energy efficiency, stability, and long lifespan, LED headlights are becoming increasingly popular.
