Here is an introduction to the methods for distinguishing between National 5 and National 6 vehicles: 1. The relevant numbers in the emission standard column on the vehicle certificate: According to relevant laws and regulations, dealers must provide a certificate of conformity when selling a vehicle, and vehicles without this certificate cannot be registered. On the certificate of conformity, there is a section for the emission standard, which clearly indicates the emission standard number adopted by the vehicle. 'National V' indicates a National 5 model, while 'National VI' indicates a National 6 model. 2. The relevant numbers on the environmental information vehicle list: When purchasing a vehicle, in addition to the certificate of conformity, there will be an environmental information vehicle list in the accompanying documents. In the vehicle information section, there is a column labeled 'emission stage,' which will clearly and directly indicate whether the vehicle is National 5 or National 6. 3. The relevant numbers in the vehicle conformity certificate: When picking up the vehicle, there is another document called the vehicle conformity certificate, which contains many verification items. One of them is labeled 'exhaust emissions,' which directly states the standard number adopted for the 3C certification. 'GB18352.5-2013' refers to the fifth-stage emission standard, i.e., National 5, while 'GB18352.6-2016' refers to the sixth-stage emission standard, i.e., National 6. 4. The numbers queried on the Motor Vehicle Environmental Protection Website: Simply visit the Motor Vehicle Environmental Protection Website, click on the public query platform, and then enter the VIN (vehicle identification number) and the last six digits of the engine number to query the relevant vehicle information, including whether it is a National 5 or National 6 vehicle.

What to Do If the Car Is Not Driven for Half a Year on a Business Trip?

If the car is not driven for half a year, the following measures can be taken: 1. If the car is not driven for half a year, warm up the engine for a few minutes regularly, two to three times a month. 2. If it exceeds half a year without driving, drain the gasoline and disconnect the battery cables. 3. Use a jack to lift all four wheels off the ground to protect the tires. 4. Apply lubricating oil to the door hinges and seals. 5. Wash and wax the car—after drying—cover it with a car cover to prevent dust. It is best to park it in a garage and place some rodent repellent devices on the ground. Below is some related knowledge about vehicle maintenance: The engine is fixed to the frame by engine mounts, which are made of rubber. Over time, exposure to wind and sun will inevitably cause them to age. As parts that secure the engine, once the mounts age, they will inevitably lead to unstable engine fixation, resulting in vibrations. Therefore, if the car is relatively old, the engine vibrates noticeably, but the power output hasn’t changed much, it is recommended to focus on checking the engine mounts.

What Happens When a Car is Submerged in Water?

When a car is submerged in water, it generally causes severe damage to the vehicle. The hazards are as follows: 1. Although we can make repairs to a certain extent, the repaired vehicle may still have safety risks. 2. A water-damaged car is highly prone to rusting of body components, shortening its lifespan and reducing safety performance. 3. Water immersion can lead to corrosion and rusting of the vehicle's wiring, causing the car to suddenly stall or even catch fire due to short circuits while driving, with potentially catastrophic consequences. 4. The repair costs for water-damaged vehicles are extremely high. In cases of severe water ingress, the repair expenses may exceed 50% of the car's original value.

How to Deal with Scratched Car Paint?

Choose nail polish of the same color as the car body and apply it evenly to the scratch. Below are some related materials on scratched car paint: Methods to repair scratched car paint: 1. You can first use scratch wax, grind the scratch with a waxing sponge, remembering to apply it in one direction, either clockwise or counterclockwise. Then use polishing wax to make the painted surface look brighter, which basically solves the problem. 2. A more cost-effective method is to use toothpaste for repair. You can gently apply toothpaste to the shallow scratch and then rub it counterclockwise with a soft cotton cloth. After a few times, not only will the scratch disappear, but it will also prevent air from eroding the damaged paint.

How to Match Gears with RPM?

Gear and speed matching is as follows: 1st gear: Used for normal starting or climbing very steep slopes. The speed is generally around 10 km/h when using this gear. 2nd gear: A transitional gear for acceleration after starting, or used when moving at low speeds or climbing steep slopes. The speed is generally around 20 km/h. 3rd gear: Typically used when the speed ranges between 20 km/h and 40 km/h, often employed for city driving. 4th gear: Can be used when the speed is between 40 km/h and 60 km/h. 5th gear: Suitable for speeds above 60 km/h, used during high-speed driving.

How Often Should a Vehicle's Timing Belt Be Replaced?

The timing belt should be replaced every six years or after the vehicle has traveled 100,000 kilometers. Below is relevant information regarding the vehicle's timing belt: Precautions for replacing the timing belt: 1. Loosen the crankshaft pulley bolt; this operation must first lock the flywheel using a special tool. 2. When installing the new timing belt, note: When cylinder No. 1 is firing, the mark on the camshaft timing gear must align with the mark on the edge of the oil pump housing; the mark on the crankshaft timing belt tooth must align with the mark on the timing belt rear cover. 3. If the belt is about to break, it often first develops some cracks or becomes very hard due to aging. If not maintained at this stage, the belt may lose teeth, followed by the engine skipping teeth, and in severe cases, the belt may break directly.

What's the Difference Between Expensive and Cheap Windshield Washer Fluid?

The difference between expensive and cheap windshield washer fluid is that the ordinary one has a minimum operating temperature of -15 degrees Celsius, while the expensive one can operate at temperatures as low as -25 degrees Celsius. Windshield washer fluid is commonly known as glass water. Relevant information about windshield washer fluid is as follows: Introduction: Commonly referred to as automotive windshield cleaning fluid, it is a consumable item in vehicle use. High-quality automotive windshield washer fluid is mainly composed of water, alcohol, ethylene glycol, corrosion inhibitors, and various surfactants. Functions: Cleaning Performance: Windshield washer fluid typically has functions such as wetting, penetrating, and solubilizing, thereby achieving the effect of cleaning and removing dirt. Antifreeze Performance: The presence of alcohol and ethylene glycol can significantly lower the freezing point of the liquid, thus providing antifreeze effects and quickly dissolving frost.
