You can still proceed with an overdue annual inspection. Before the inspection, ensure that all traffic violations are settled, taxes are paid, and bring a copy of the valid compulsory insurance policy. For detailed information, it's best to consult the local inspection station. If your vehicle hasn't passed the inspection, be cautious when driving, as being caught driving an uninspected vehicle may result in the vehicle being impounded and fines imposed. If you realize that your vehicle has exceeded the inspection deadline, the first thing to do is to stop driving it on the road and complete the inspection process as soon as possible. According to the "Regulations for the Implementation of the Road Traffic Safety Law," Article 16: Motor vehicles shall undergo safety technical inspections within the following periods from the date of registration: (1) Passenger vehicles for commercial use must be inspected once a year within 5 years; after 5 years, once every 6 months. (2) Trucks and large or medium-sized non-commercial passenger vehicles must be inspected once a year within 10 years; after 10 years, once every 6 months. (3) Small and mini non-commercial passenger vehicles must be inspected once every 2 years within 6 years; after 6 years, once a year; after 15 years, once every 6 months. (4) Motorcycles must be inspected once every 2 years within 4 years; after 4 years, once a year. (5) Tractors and other motor vehicles must be inspected once a year. Commercial motor vehicles that pass the safety technical inspection within the specified period do not need to undergo repeated inspections. (6) Vehicles exceeding the scrapping age cannot be transferred (sold or bought), but they can still be used. For transactions, you can first obtain a scrapping certificate (to deregister the vehicle's records) from the vehicle management office, and then proceed with the transaction.

Is 200kpa Tire Pressure Normal for a Corolla?

The tire pressure of 200kpa is not normal for a Corolla. The normal tire pressure range should be between 230-250kpa. Below is an introduction about tire pressure: The role of tire pressure in a car: Car tires are one of the important components of a vehicle, directly in contact with the road surface. Together with the car suspension, they help to absorb shocks encountered during driving, ensuring good ride comfort and smoothness. They also maintain good adhesion between the wheels and the road, thereby improving the car's traction, braking, and off-road capability. Solutions for insufficient tire pressure: If the system indicates insufficient tire pressure after inflation, it may be because the tire pressure has not been recalibrated. You need to recalibrate the tire pressure on the central control panel. If the system indicates insufficient tire pressure some time after inflation, but there is no puncture in the tire, it could be due to air leakage caused by a deformed wheel hub. It is recommended to check the wheel hub and replace it if necessary. Also, check if the tire is leaking due to a puncture. In such cases, the tire should be replaced promptly.

What is the brand of the transmission in the fourth-generation Geely Emgrand?

The transmission brand of the fourth-generation Geely Emgrand is called Wanliyang, produced and supplied by Nanjing Punch Powertrain Co., Ltd. It comes with two options: a 5-speed manual transmission and a CVT transmission. Advantages and disadvantages of manual transmission: Manual transmissions have higher transmission efficiency than automatic transmissions. Under the same engine displacement conditions, they are more fuel-efficient than hydraulic automatic transmissions. They have a simpler structure, lower maintenance costs compared to automatic transmissions, and better durability. The downside is that shifting requires simultaneous control of the clutch, gear lever, and throttle, which can increase the driver's operational burden, especially for beginners, potentially causing nervousness and affecting driving safety. Advantages and disadvantages of CVT transmission: CVT transmissions provide linear power output, offering a very smooth driving experience in practice. They enable continuously variable transmission over a wide range, achieving optimal matching between the drivetrain and engine conditions. The downside is weaker acceleration sensation (less 'push-back' feeling) and limited capacity to handle high-torque engines.

Why does the car make abnormal noise when accelerating hard?

Abnormal noise when stepping on the accelerator may be caused by excessive clearance in components like the drive shaft or poor lubrication. Improper assembly during maintenance can lead to friction noise under high torque output. Below is an introduction to abnormal noise when accelerating hard: 1. Abnormal noises can be categorized by their impact on vehicle performance: minor noises, general noises, and severe noises. Minor noises, such as sparking from high-voltage electricity leakage or slight looseness in rolling bearings, have low volume and cause minimal component wear. These faults can persist for a long time without significant changes, and the vehicle can still operate normally without repair. 2. Noises like those from the flywheel bearing or clutch release bearing significantly affect vehicle performance but can maintain key technical functions in the short term. These noises are louder and indicate greater component wear, requiring timely repair. When the engine oil temperature hasn't reached normal levels upon startup, its viscosity may not suit the hydraulic tappet's working condition, reducing its sealing ability and causing noise. 3. If encountering accelerator pedal issues in a new car, stay calm. Fully depress the brake pedal to stop the vehicle, then turn off the engine and contact for assistance. When starting the engine, avoid fully depressing the accelerator pedal—keeping it slightly above idle speed is best.

How to start a Dongfeng Honda CR-V?

Starting procedure for Honda CR-V: After the engine starts, depress the brake pedal, press the lock button on the gear lever, shift the gear lever into the driving gear, release the handbrake, then slowly release the brake pedal, and the car can start moving gradually. When making a U-turn or reversing, do not release the brake completely immediately, and pay attention to controlling the speed. Below are driving instructions for the Honda CR-V: 1. Shift into different driving gears according to different road sections and speeds. 2. The D gear is the most commonly used driving gear, and the car can automatically shift between gears 1~4. The automatic transmission determines the gear based on throttle input and vehicle speed. 3. During driving, if you accidentally shift into N gear, you must lift the throttle pedal and wait until the engine is idling before shifting back into the driving gear. Avoid using N gear for coasting at high speeds. 4. Never use N gear when going downhill. When going downhill, shift into a lower gear according to the slope to make full use of engine braking to control the speed. When shifting from D gear to a lower gear, first brake to reduce the speed to match the lower gear before shifting.
