Car tires generally need to be replaced every 5 years or approximately 60,000 to 80,000 kilometers. If the tires are severely worn, they must be replaced earlier. In cases where the tires show no issues, if the mileage reaches 80,000 kilometers, replacement is necessary even if the usage period hasn't reached 5 years. Tires may also be considered for replacement under the following conditions: 1. Wear level: Check the tread pattern on the tire surface. If the tread depth is less than 1.6 mm or aligns with the wear limit indicator, replacement is required. 2. Mileage: Generally, car tires need to be replaced every 60,000 to 80,000 kilometers. 3. Age: Tires older than 5 years will age at an increasingly faster rate. Even if the wear is not severe, replacement should still be considered.

How to Repair Cigarette Burns on Car Seats?

Here are the methods to repair cigarette burns on car seats: 1. Surface Scuffing: Clean the damaged area and apply leather finishing paste; 2. Surface Scratches: Clean the scratched area and use leather adhesive to reattach the removed leather piece; 3. Tears: Find a piece of leather or fabric slightly longer than the tear and about 1.5mm wide, place it inside the tear. Apply leather adhesive on both the patch and the backside of the torn leather, then carefully align and bond them firmly. If the tear is visibly uneven on the surface, sand it smooth with sandpaper and apply leather finishing paste; 4. Holes: First, find a leather patch larger than the hole and matching the seat's color. Trim the hole neatly and carefully sand the back edges of the hole with sandpaper to ensure the patch blends in. After sanding, apply leather adhesive to the back edges of the hole and the front side of the patch, then place the patch inside the hole and bond it securely. Finally, carefully remove any excess adhesive from the surface.

What are the test items for the manual transmission in Subject 2?

Small car C1 test items include reversing into a garage, parallel parking, stopping and starting on a slope, turning at a right angle, and driving on a curve (commonly known as an S-curve). Some regions also include a sixth item: high-speed toll card collection. The full score for Subject 2 is 100 points, with evaluation criteria set for failing, deducting 20 points, deducting 10 points, and deducting 5 points. A total score of 80 points or above is required to pass the test. If the candidate fails the Subject 2 test on the first attempt, they can retake it once. If the candidate does not take the retest or fails the retest, the current test session is terminated, and the applicant must reschedule the test after ten days. Within the validity period of the driving skill test permit, the number of scheduled tests for Subject 2 and Subject 3 road driving skills tests must not exceed five times. If the candidate fails the fifth scheduled test, the results of other subjects that have been passed will be invalidated.

What to Do When 12 Points Are Deducted from the Driving License?

If 12 points are deducted from the driving license, theoretical study is required, and passing it will allow the driver to regain the license. If the points exceed 12 twice or more within one scoring cycle, a road test is required. After accumulating 12 points and the license being suspended, the driver must go to the issuing authority of the motor vehicle driving license within 15 days to participate in a 7-day study on road traffic safety laws and related knowledge. Below are relevant details: 1. Types of driving licenses: The license allows for nationwide testing and cross-regional subject exams. Generally, driving licenses include types such as motorcycles and small passenger vehicles. 2. Validity period of the driving license: After obtaining the motor vehicle driving license, its validity period is divided into three types: 6 years, 10 years, and long-term. 3. Age requirements for obtaining a driving license: Drivers aged 60 or above cannot drive large passenger vehicles, and those aged 70 or above cannot drive motorcycles. The minimum age requirement for taking the driving license test is 18 years old.

The Difference Between LED Headlights and Halogen Headlights

Halogen headlights have low production costs and stronger light penetration compared to LED headlights, while LED headlights are energy-efficient and have a longer lifespan. Below are the differences between the two: 1. Different principles: Halogen lamps are an upgraded version of incandescent bulbs, operating on the principle of tungsten filament inside the bulb glowing after being heated by electric current; LED lamps, or light-emitting diodes, use solid-state semiconductor chips as the light-emitting material, directly emitting light through photon emission caused by carrier recombination. 2. Different light colors: Halogen lamps are filled with halogen gases such as iodine or bromine. At high temperatures, the sublimated tungsten filament reacts chemically with the halogen, producing a yellowish light that appears warm; LED lamps convert electrical energy directly into light energy through semiconductor chips, typically emitting blue light. 3. Different color temperatures: Generally, halogen lamps have a color temperature between 2000K and 4000K, while LED lamps usually have a color temperature above 5000K (the difference in color temperature also results in different light colors). 4. Different prices: Halogen lamps are relatively inexpensive and mainly used in standard vehicle models; LED lamps are more expensive and primarily used in mid-to-high-end vehicle models.

How Deep Can Water Submerge an Engine?

Generally, as long as the water depth does not exceed half of the tire height, drivers can proceed with confidence without worrying about water reaching the engine. Additional Information: 1. The intake pipe is the primary water-sensitive component of a car: The engine's intake pipe is particularly vulnerable to water, which can cause the engine to stall or even become irreparably damaged. 2. Exhaust pipe ground clearance: For standard sedans, the exhaust pipe is typically 20 to 30 cm above the ground, while for SUVs, it ranges from 30 to 40 cm. 3. Tips for driving through water: (1) Follow the lead vehicle: Observe how preceding vehicles navigate the water. If a similar vehicle successfully passes, your car is likely to do the same. If no vehicles are ahead, the driver must assess the water depth carefully before proceeding. (2) Assess water conditions: Areas with waves or whirlpools often indicate large rocks or obstacles, while calm surfaces usually signify deeper water. Uniform, small ripples typically indicate a smoother roadbed below—choose such paths for crossing. (3) Determine water depth: If water rises above the exhaust pipe level, there's a risk of stalling and water ingress. Typically, when water depth stays below half the wheel height, you can cautiously drive through at low speed.
