Citroen C-Quatre timing alignment method is: 1. Remove the timing cover, slowly rotate the crankshaft, observe that each camshaft wheel has a hole, slowly rotate to align with the corresponding hole on the cylinder head, and use a special tool to insert and fix the camshaft. If there is no special tool, you can make one yourself. 2.

Should the AC be turned on for defogging?

Generally speaking, when using cold air for defogging, the AC should be turned on, while when using warm air for defogging, the AC does not need to be turned on. If the local air is relatively dry, you can also choose not to turn on the AC and instead crack open the car windows to allow air circulation inside the car, reducing the temperature difference between the inside and outside of the car. However, this method can be quite cold in winter. The correct methods for car defogging: 1. In summer: You can turn on the car's defogging mode, set the fan speed to maximum, then turn on the AC and lower the temperature. The fog on the windows will disappear shortly. 2. In winter: You can turn on the warm air, the front windshield defogging function, and the AC. Although warm air defogging is not as fast as cold air, and the fog on the windows may worsen initially when warm air is first turned on, this method provides better defogging results. It prevents secondary fogging while driving and keeps the car warm. When using warm air for defogging in winter, it's best to find a place to stop first, wait for the fog on the windows to dissipate, and then continue driving.

Where is the motor vehicle certificate number?

For new vehicles that have not been licensed, the vehicle certificate should be in the hands of the dealer. For vehicles that have already been licensed, the vehicle certificate is stored in the archives of the vehicle management office. The vehicle certificate is attached with the vehicle when it leaves the factory and needs to be submitted to the vehicle management office for archiving when the vehicle is registered for a license plate, and the motor vehicle registration certificate is reissued. Here is more related information: Vehicle certificate: The owner can request the vehicle certificate that comes with the vehicle from the 4S store staff when picking up the car, and the vehicle certificate number can be viewed on the certificate. However, when the owner registers a new vehicle for a license plate, the vehicle certificate needs to be submitted to the vehicle management office for storage. Therefore, after the license plate is issued, the owner receives the motor vehicle registration certificate instead of the vehicle certificate. If the owner wants to check the vehicle certificate number after submitting the vehicle certificate, they can consult the car dealer to see if the vehicle certificate number can be queried at the vehicle management office where the vehicle is registered based on the engine number. Additionally, by comparing the engine number, it can be determined whether the vehicle's factory records and the engine number on the driving license are consistent.

How to Identify the Front and Back Sides of Car Tires?

Tire side identification methods are as follows: 1. For most tires, the side with the production date should face outward. 2. Check if there are two dots on the tire sidewall. Typically, one dot is red and the other is yellow. The red dot is solid, while the yellow one is hollow. The side with these dots should face outward. 3. Lettering identification. This method isn't universal as it varies by brand. For example, Dunlop tires have the word "outside" on the outward-facing sidewall. Other brands may not have these markings - some tires may have "INSIDE" on the inner side instead. 4. Symmetrical tread pattern tires and unidirectional tread tires don't have front/back sides. Although unidirectional tires don't have front/back sides, they do have a specific rolling direction. These tires feature an arrow on the sidewall indicating the correct rotation direction. Installing them backwards will reduce traction and drainage performance, creating safety hazards.
