ETC can be applied for at bank branches, expressway service areas, and other institutions. The application requires the original and photocopies of the vehicle owner's valid ID card and vehicle license. If the application is not made by the owner, the agent's valid ID card is also required. The photocopy of the vehicle license must include the page with the most recent annual inspection seal. A Postal Savings credit card application form is needed, as this credit card will be used to bind the ETC card. After obtaining the credit card, swipe it twice and present the POS slip to receive and install the ETC onboard device for free at designated Postal Savings outlets. No fees are charged during this process. Applicants must be between 18 and 60 years old and own the vehicle in their name. ETC stands for Electronic Toll Collection, meaning electronic toll system. The application requires the original and photocopies of the vehicle owner's valid ID card and vehicle license. If the application is not made by the owner, the agent's valid ID card is also required. The photocopy of the vehicle license must include the page with the most recent annual inspection seal. A bank card for deducting expressway toll fees is needed. Applicants must be between 18 and 60 years old and own the vehicle in their name. Here are the precautions for installing ETC: Do not obstruct the view; it is best to install it behind the rearview mirror: Many car models have a steeply inclined windshield, which can reduce the driver's field of vision. If this is not considered during ETC installation, it may increase the driver's blind spots. Install it behind the rearview mirror on the right side to avoid obstructing the view. Do not interfere with charging: The ETC electronic tag consumes power but generally does not require charging or battery replacement, as it has a solar panel on the back for self-charging. Therefore, during installation, avoid the blackened areas on the windshield and positions that may block the solar panel. Do not remove it randomly once installed: The button in the middle of the adhesive is an anti-removal lever connected to a switch. After installation, the windshield will press the anti-removal lever in. If the tag is removed carelessly, the lever will pop out and trigger the switch, locking the electronic tag and rendering it unusable. You will then need to visit an ETC service point to unlock it. This is designed to prevent multiple vehicles from sharing one device. Notes for using ETC: The ETC transaction sensing range is 8 meters. To prevent issues caused by the ETC device of the vehicle in front malfunctioning, maintain a distance of more than 10 meters from the vehicle ahead to avoid automatic toll payment for it. The ETC lane recognition speed is 20 kilometers per hour. Driving too fast may result in failure to read the vehicle's device information and toll deduction failure. When using a debit card to bind ETC, insufficient balance may also cause toll deduction failure.

What Causes a Truck Not to Use Urea and How to Solve It?

A truck not using urea is generally due to issues such as a damaged urea pump, clogged urea lines, or blocked nozzles. These situations require timely inspection and repair at a professional auto repair shop. Below is some relevant information about vehicle urea: 1. Function: The primary purpose of using urea in vehicles is to reduce harmful nitrogen oxides in the exhaust into nitrogen and water. 2. Principle: The main harmful substances in exhaust are nitrogen oxides and particulates. While particulates can be reduced inside the engine through technical means, the exhaust mainly contains nitrogen oxides. By injecting urea into the exhaust after-treatment device, the urea decomposes into ammonia at high temperatures. Under the action of a catalyst, the ammonia reacts with nitrogen oxides to produce harmless nitrogen and water. This device is called the SCR after-treatment system.

How Many Years Can a Used Car Be Driven Before Scrapping?

Previously, used cars were subject to mandatory scrapping after 15 years of use. The new regulations for the scrapping period of family cars: The Ministry of Commerce officially issued the mandatory scrapping standards for motor vehicles, which removed the stipulation on the operational years for non-commercial cars. At the same time, the scrapping mileage limit for private cars was set at 600,000 kilometers. The abolition of the scrapping period for family cars has raised higher requirements for the safety and technical inspections of vehicles. Under the new policy, private cars must undergo two annual inspections starting from the 15th year after registration, and those over 20 years old must undergo four regular inspections annually from the 21st year onwards. The annual inspections have strict regulations for older vehicles. During the power inspection for private cars, the chassis output power must not be less than 60% of the engine's rated power.

Does replacing the air conditioning expansion valve on a BMW X4 count as being repaired?

Replacing the air conditioning expansion valve on a BMW X4 counts as being repaired. The function of the car's air conditioning expansion valve is to throttle and reduce pressure. Below is relevant information about the car's air conditioning expansion valve: 1. Classification: Thermal expansion valves are divided into internal balance type and external balance type according to different balancing methods; the external balance type thermal expansion valve is further divided into F-type and H-type structural forms. 2. Working principle: The liquid refrigerant entering the car's evaporator evaporates into a gaseous state after passing through the evaporator, absorbing heat and lowering the temperature inside the car. The expansion valve controls the flow of refrigerant to ensure that the outlet of the evaporator is completely gaseous refrigerant. If the flow is too large, the outlet may contain liquid refrigerant, which could enter the compressor and cause liquid slugging; if the refrigerant flow is too small, premature evaporation may occur, reducing the cooling capacity.

What to Do with Tire Pressure Monitoring After Changing Tires?

After changing tires, the tire pressure monitoring system needs to be reset, also known as tire pressure learning. Each tire is equipped with a tire pressure sensor that transmits the tire pressure wirelessly to the vehicle's tire pressure control system, allowing the car's data display to show the tire pressure for each specific tire position. The steps to reset the tire pressure are: 1. Park the car and turn off the engine, then engage the handbrake; 2. Power on the car but do not start the engine; 3. Simultaneously press and hold the lock and unlock buttons on the remote control for 5 seconds until you hear two short beeps from the car; 4. Proceed to reset each tire in the following order: front left, front right, rear right, rear left; 5. Remove the valve cap from the tire and continuously release air until you hear a short beep from the car, indicating the setting is complete. The air release process may take 10 to 20 seconds. If no beep is heard, continue releasing air.
