New cars require annual inspection after six years, and the specific steps are as follows: 1. Upon arrival at the inspection station, the first step is an exterior inspection. The owner needs to park the vehicle in the designated area for exterior checks, prepare the fire extinguisher and triangular warning sign, and open the engine hood and trunk for inspection by the staff. During the exterior inspection, the staff will provide two forms to record the vehicle's chassis number, engine number, and other details, while also verifying the presence of safety equipment like the triangular warning sign and fire extinguisher. If the exterior passes inspection, the staff will sign off on the relevant section of the form. 2. After the exterior inspection, the staff will hand the forms back to the owner and direct them to the payment office to settle the fees. Once payment is completed, the owner must submit their ID card and vehicle registration to the staff, who will then enter the annual inspection details into the system. 3. The owner should then drive the vehicle to the inspection lane entrance and queue up. A technician will take over the vehicle and the forms, and the owner can proceed to the final photo area to wait. 4. If any issues are detected during the inspection, the staff will notify the owner, who must then address the problems and return for a re-inspection after repairs. For vehicles that pass inspection, the owner will receive the signed forms. At this stage, the owner should place the triangular warning sign and fire extinguisher behind the vehicle, and if the vehicle has a sunroof, the rear portion should be slightly raised for the staff to take photos. 5. Finally, the owner must submit the forms and compulsory insurance documents to the service counter for verification and data entry. The staff will then issue the annual inspection sticker, marking the completion of the entire process.

Will Car Paint Bubbles Disappear After Sun Exposure?

No. Here is the relevant content introduction: 1. Treatment method: Car paint bubbling is caused by inferior paint combined with poor workmanship, where the metal surface wasn't properly treated or rust-proof primer wasn't applied during painting. It should be addressed promptly. Make sure the technician thoroughly sands away all rusted areas before applying a rust-proof primer, followed by color paint. Ideally, a clear coat should be applied over the color paint to ensure durability. 2. Paint maintenance methods: (1) After vehicle use: Promptly remove dust from the car body to minimize static electricity's attraction of dust. (2) Wash the car promptly after rain: Rainwater contains many acidic substances and dust. Rain spots on the car will gradually shrink, increasing the concentration of acidic substances in the rainwater. Combined with dust in rainwater forming rain spots, if not rinsed off with clean water promptly, over time it will damage the car's paint surface.

How Many Years Until a Car is Mandatorily Scrapped?

Currently, there is no clear scrapping period for household cars. Vehicles aged 1-6 years require inspection every two years, those aged 6-15 years need annual inspections, and vehicles over 15 years old must be inspected every six months. As long as the inspection is passed, the car can continue to be driven on the road. Here is additional information about car scrapping: Relevant regulations: Since May 1, 2013, new regulations have been implemented for the scrapping of old vehicles. The scrapping period for private cars has been abolished, with a maximum mileage of 600,000 kilometers for mandatory scrapping. Documents required for scrapping: Copy of resident ID card (for private cars), copy of the enterprise organization code certificate with official seal (for company cars), "Motor Vehicle Registration Certificate", "Motor Vehicle Driving License", application form for motor vehicle registration, transfer, cancellation/transfer, power of attorney (to be filled out), and the motor vehicle itself.

Is it biennial inspection after 6-year exemption?

Yes, after 6 years, the vehicle inspection reform changes to biennial inspection. However, not all vehicles are reformed to biennial inspection, and there are corresponding age limits for the reform. The specific details are as follows: Biennial inspection: The regulations indicate that for non-operational small and mini passenger vehicles aged 6-10 years, the annual inspection cycle is adjusted from the original annual inspection to biennial inspection. Exemption: Non-operational small and mini passenger vehicles with 7-9 seats will be included in the exemption scope. This means that for non-operational small and mini passenger vehicles with 7-9 seats whose inspection period falls after November 20, 2020, if they meet the conditions, they can participate in the annual inspection according to the new policy. Vehicles within 6 years can enjoy the exemption policy and simply apply for the inspection compliance label as per regulations.

Won't the fuel tank cap be stolen if it opens with a press?

The fuel tank cap won't be stolen when it opens with a press because the fuel tank cap has a key and is secured with a chain lock. The fuel tank is locked inside, and the switch is located near the driver's seat, making the fuel tank very safe. The fuel tank cap's one-press opening is safe and reliable. Firstly, it enhances security, and secondly, if the fuel level is too low, it increases the workload on the fuel pump. Many parts of the car are easy to open, but this is usually only possible after the car is unlocked. Once the car is locked, it becomes like a large cage, making it difficult to open from the outside. Additionally, improper actions can trigger the car alarm, which is part of the car's security measures. When refueling the vehicle, it's also important to choose times with lower temperatures, such as early morning or evening in the summer, as temperatures are relatively lower during these periods, minimizing the effects of thermal expansion and contraction. Gasoline evaporation is also minimal. Avoid filling the tank too full during regular refueling, as overfilling places a heavy burden on the car, negatively affecting its performance and even shortening its lifespan. Moreover, if the car is not driven frequently, the fuel left inside may degrade and lose its effectiveness.

How Many Kilometers Can You Drive with Half a Tank of Fuel?

Half a tank of fuel can approximately drive 20 to 30 kilometers. Here are some methods to reduce fuel consumption: Summer Air Conditioning System Check: Air conditioning malfunctions are a significant reason for high fuel consumption. Poor cooling performance will require increasing the fan speed and lowering the temperature to achieve a cooling effect. Frequent Hard Braking: Frequent hard braking is the main cause of persistently high car fuel consumption. While ensuring safe driving, make full use of the vehicle's inertia. Small Displacement Cars Should Not Use Air Conditioning Too Aggressively: For vehicles exposed to the sun, it is not advisable to turn on the air conditioning immediately after getting in. First, open the windows and set the fan to a higher speed without turning on the air conditioning to expel the hot air inside the car. Wait until the vehicle has cooled down moderately before turning on the air conditioning.
