Here are the methods to deal with water leakage from a car sunroof: 1. Ensure the sunroof is tightly closed and carefully read the car's user manual. 2. Unclog the drainage pipe or adjust the drainage pipe connector. 3. Replace or adjust the sealing rubber strip. 4. Seal the welding points (using sealant). Below are the reasons for water leakage from a car sunroof: 1. The sunroof glass is not properly closed. 2. The sunroof sealing rubber strip is aged or deformed. One of the primary functions of the sealing rubber strip is to provide waterproof sealing. The rubber strip is sandwiched between the sunroof and the car frame. If the sealing strip is aged or improperly installed, the rainwater that seeps in may exceed the drainage capacity of the drainage channel, leading to leakage. 3. Malfunction of the sunroof drainage system.

Reasons for Engine Overheating?

Reasons for engine overheating include insufficient engine coolant; prolonged low-speed, high-load driving during hot seasons; excessively lean or rich air-fuel mixture; severe external dirt or internal scale buildup in the radiator leading to poor heat dissipation; delayed engagement of the fan clutch, non-functioning cooling fan, damaged blades, excessive fan rotation resistance, etc.; excessive carbon deposits in the combustion chamber; issues with the catalytic converter. Dashboard Warning: When the engine temperature is too high, the dashboard will display a warning. It appears as a thermometer-like icon called the coolant temperature warning light. Illumination of this icon indicates insufficient coolant and rising engine temperature. Normal Engine Temperature: The normal operating temperature of a car engine varies by brand and vehicle type. Generally, civilian passenger cars operate between 95-98°C, commercial trucks between 90-95°C, while performance sports cars can reach 105-115°C.

Does Applying Black Badges to Chevrolet Count as Modification?

Applying black badges to a Chevrolet does not count as modification. A modified vehicle passing the annual inspection proves that the vehicle complies with relevant laws and regulations and is allowed to be driven on the road. The following modifications cannot pass vehicle inspection: Color Modification: There are three colors reserved for special-purpose vehicles and cannot be used. Red is designated for firefighting, yellow for engineering rescue, and white with blue bottom for national administrative law enforcement. Raised Chassis: Replacing the front bumper is feasible after approval, but modifications such as raising the chassis to enhance off-road performance are not allowed. If illegal modifications are discovered during the annual inspection, they must be restored to the original condition. Exhaust System: Modifications such as changing tire specifications, altering the intake system, or modifying the exhaust system are not permitted by national regulations. Modifying the exhaust system may result in failing the tailpipe emissions test during inspection because the catalytic converter is not part of the original vehicle.

How Long Can a Private Car Be Left Undriven?

Private cars can be left undriven for up to one month. It is recommended to drive the car at least once a month, with each drive lasting no less than half an hour. Prolonged inactivity can lead to battery discharge. Hazards of Long-Term Parking: Tire Aging: The contact points between the tires and the ground are prone to aging. The contact points between the tires and the ground can age, and even the rims may develop subtle deformations, causing the car to feel unstable when driven. Frame Deformation: Parking on uneven surfaces can lead to severe issues such as difficulty in opening doors, poor door sealing, and problems like an unstable chassis, increased noise, and suspension oil leaks during driving. Precautions for Vehicle Parking: Even when the car is locked, the battery still experiences a dark current and power loss. It is advisable to disconnect the negative terminal of the battery if the car is parked for 15 days or longer. Always choose flat surfaces for parking, preferably in locations monitored by cameras, and avoid areas near garbage piles or tall grass.
