Micro and small non-operational passenger vehicles exceeding 6 years require an annual inspection. Within the three-month period encompassing the two months prior to the vehicle's initial registration month, after resolving all traffic violations, bring the vehicle license, compulsory traffic insurance policy, and ID card to the local inspection station for vehicle inspection. Additional Information: 1. For vehicles reaching 6 years, an annual inspection is required. Visit the inspection station to pay fees, undergo exterior inspection, exhaust emission testing, and safety technical inspection. After passing all tests, collect the results, have staff sign and upload them, then receive the annual inspection compliance sticker upon approval. 2. For vehicles within six years, every two years during the three-month period encompassing the two months prior to the initial registration month, after resolving all traffic violations, bring required documents to the nearest traffic police station's inspection window to complete forms and obtain the annual inspection compliance sticker.

Which Type of Dash Cam Should I Buy?

Here are some tips for purchasing a dash cam: 1. Price: Avoid buying cheap, counterfeit, or low-quality brands as they often have poor recording quality, short lifespans, and are prone to freezing. However, there's also no need to opt for overly expensive dash cams, as many are marketed with inflated prices and may not be practical. 2. Brand: With numerous dash cam brands available, choosing a well-known and reliable one is crucial. Established brands offer better quality and credibility, backed by positive reviews from many car owners. 3. Field of View (FOV): A wider FOV captures more of the scene, but excessive angles can lead to significant image distortion. Most dash cams on the market have some level of distortion, though the severity varies. Generally, a 140° FOV is sufficient for most needs. 4. Video Quality: The key factor in dash cam video quality is the resolution of the lens. Most current models feature 1080P or 12-megapixel cameras, which provide excellent recording quality—there's no need to chase excessively high resolutions.

Is a built-in or external tire pressure monitoring device better?

Both built-in and external types offer excellent safety. Below are the relevant introductions about built-in and external types: 1. Introduction one: The sensor lifespan of the built-in type is longer than that of the external type, but the battery of the built-in sensor is difficult to replace. 2. Introduction two: The accuracy of both built-in and external types is the same, but the installation of the built-in type is more troublesome. 3. Introduction three: The principle of the external sensor is to use a push pin to open the valve core, and the air pressure impact received by the sensor is the internal tire pressure. The sensor cleverly uses the thread of the fixed dust cap to secure it to the air valve. 4. Introduction four: Installed inside the tire, it uses a sensor-equipped air valve to replace the original one, with a minimal external part that does not protrude outside the wheel hub. Once installed, it is basically a one-time, permanent solution.

What grade is SM engine oil?

SM engine oil quality grade is second only to SN, and it is also one of the three most common grades of engine oil currently available. Engine oil grades: 1. Definition: API grades represent the quality grades of engine oil. It uses simple codes to describe the working capability of engine oil. Engine oil grades are classified into SA, SB, SC, SD, SE, SF, SG, SH, SJ, SL, SM, and SN grades. The further back the letter is, the higher the grade. 2. Highest grade: SN grade is currently the highest grade of engine oil. SJ was the standard in the 1990s, SL was the standard in 2001, SM was the standard in 2004, and SN was the standard in 2010. Therefore, SM is only one grade lower than SN, and its oil quality is quite good. Most international brand engine oils are above SF grade.

What does it mean when the coolant warning light comes on?

The coolant warning light indicates to the driver that there is an abnormality in the engine or its control system, requiring maintenance. This issue requires professional diagnostic testing, using a decoder to read the fault codes stored in the system. Based on the fault codes, the location and cause of the issue can be determined. Therefore, it is important to promptly visit a professional repair shop for diagnostics and avoid continuing to use the vehicle. Below is an introduction to the engine warning light: 1. Engine warning light: If the engine warning light stays on, it means the vehicle has a fault code. In this case, if the ECU is not powered off, the fault code will be recorded. Using a code reader at a 4S shop can determine the fault code and the corresponding issue. Additionally, confirm whether the previous fault code was completely cleared. 2. Damaged radiator cap: Check if the main radiator cap is damaged. The radiator cap is very important. During high temperatures, the expanding coolant flows into the auxiliary reservoir through the radiator cap, and when the engine is cold, the cap opens to allow coolant to circulate back into the main radiator.
