The gearbox with an 'A' after the serial number is a fast one, while those without the 'A' are slow gearboxes. Rotate the front intermediate shaft and mark it. If the front rotates one turn and the rear output coupling plate also rotates one turn, it indicates a slow gearbox.

Can someone else handle the vehicle annual inspection for me?

Vehicle annual inspections can be handled by someone else on your behalf. According to Article 47, Paragraph 4 of the Motor Vehicle Registration Regulations, if a motor vehicle fails to undergo the required safety technical inspection within the specified period, the public security traffic management department may issue a warning or impose a fine. Driving without a valid inspection is considered illegal, and insurance companies will not provide coverage. Below is relevant information about vehicle annual inspection schedules: 1. For passenger transport vehicles within 5 years, inspections are required annually; after 5 years, every 6 months. 2. Small and micro non-commercial passenger vehicles (9 seats or fewer) require inspections every 2 years within the first 6 years, without the need for on-site testing. 3. Motor vehicles can undergo annual inspections up to 3 months before the expiration date.

Is a Coolant Temperature of 110 Degrees Normal?

Due to the additives in antifreeze, the coolant circulation system is a closed loop, which raises its boiling point. During vehicle design, the normal operating coolant temperature is typically 90 degrees, but short-term temperatures exceeding 100 degrees are permissible, with peak temperatures potentially reaching 110 degrees. However, 110 degrees should only occur temporarily and prolonged operation at this temperature is not allowed. Brief exposure poses no significant harm, but extended periods can be damaging. Here are potential causes: 1. Possible cooling fan circuit malfunction leading to poor heat dissipation. 2. Potential antifreeze deficiency requiring replenishment or leak inspection. 3. Possible water pump failure causing circulation issues. If high coolant temperature is detected while driving, immediately stop the vehicle and shut off the engine to cool down. For occasional temperature spikes, regular monitoring and inspection are recommended to prevent incidents.

Can Antifreeze Be Mixed and Added?

Antifreeze cannot be mixed and added. Different brands of antifreeze may have varying production formulas. If mixed and added, chemical reactions are likely to occur among the various additives, rendering them ineffective. If the original antifreeze cannot be added, it is necessary to completely drain the old fluid during replacement, thoroughly clean the cooling system, and then add new fluid. Different brands and vehicle models use different types of antifreeze. Some antifreeze is green, while others are purple, with varying freezing and boiling points. Once mixed, the components may interact, potentially causing damage to the engine.
