Methods to remove a broken key from the ignition: Find a pair of tweezers and firmly grip the broken part of the key stuck in the ignition; Gently pull it outward bit by bit, ensuring the key is slightly extended from the ignition; Once the key is partially out, use pliers to grip it and pull it out with force. A new car's key set typically consists of 2 to 3 keys and a metal or plastic tag, which usually bears a series of numbers. This number represents the key's bitting code, which allows service centers or manufacturers to replicate the key for the owner. The number and type of keys vary slightly depending on the car model. Taking the Shanghai Volkswagen Santana as an example, the three keys may look similar, but one is actually a spare key that can only unlock the doors and start the engine.

Is an Appointment Required for Vehicle Inspection?

An appointment is required for vehicle inspection. Vehicle Inspection Time: Vehicle annual inspection should be applied for the inspection qualification mark at the vehicle management department of the vehicle's location within 90 days before the expiration of the motor vehicle inspection validity period. For example, if the vehicle's annual inspection date is June 30th, you should choose to handle the annual inspection business in April, May, or June. This helps avoid the phenomenon of overcrowding during the inspection period. According to regulations, vehicles that exceed the annual inspection period by less than one year will also face penalties when handling the annual inspection procedures at the vehicle management department. Notes: According to relevant traffic laws, vehicles that have not undergone annual inspection are not qualified to be on the road. If such vehicles continue to be driven, they will be subject to a penalty of 3 points deducted and a fine. Additionally, for any traffic accidents caused by vehicles that have not participated in the annual inspection on time, the party involved will bear full or primary responsibility, and the insurance company will not bear any responsibility.

What Causes Steering Wheel Vibration When Speed Exceeds 100 km/h?

The reasons for steering wheel vibration when speed exceeds 100 km/h are: 1. Incorrect front wheel alignment angle, excessive toe-in; 2. Low front tire pressure or tire imbalance due to repairs or other reasons; 3. Front wheel rim deformation or unequal number of tire bolts; 4. Loose installation of transmission system components; 5. Bent drive shaft, power imbalance, or front axle deformation; 6. Shock absorber failure. Precautions for steering wheel use: 1. Reduce the steering angle when driving at high speeds; 2. Straighten the steering wheel when the middle of the vehicle passes the center line; 3. Straighten the steering wheel when the front of the vehicle is aligned with the center line of the lane.

What Should the Tire Pressure Be in Summer?

In summer, the recommended tire pressure for cars is 2.3bar. Due to the high temperatures in summer, the tire pressure should be 0.1 to 0.2bar lower than the standard tire pressure recommended by the car manufacturer. If the tire pressure is too high, the elasticity of the tire will decrease, and the adhesion to the ground will be reduced, which can affect braking performance and increase the risk of a blowout when encountering impacts. The hazards of low tire pressure include: 1. Increased road friction coefficient, leading to higher fuel consumption; 2. Heavy steering wheel, making the car prone to veering off course, which is detrimental to driving safety; 3. Increased movement of various parts of the tire, with excessive rolling causing abnormal tire heating; 4. Reduced performance of the cord and rubber, leading to cord breakage and delamination or excessive friction between the rim and the tire, causing bead damage and abnormal wear; 5. Increased friction between the tire and the ground, causing the tire temperature to rise sharply, softening the tire and reducing its strength, which can lead to tire bursts; 6. Low tire pressure increases the deformation of the tire body, causing sidewall cracks, flexing movements, overheating, rubber aging, accelerated shoulder wear, and shortening the tire's lifespan.

Will the airbag deploy if the seat belt is not fastened?

If the seat belt is not fastened, the airbag will still deploy. In the event of an accident where the deployment conditions are met, the airbag will inflate in stages or with reduced force. The function of the seat belt is: during a vehicle collision or when emergency braking is applied, the pretensioner will instantly retract, tightening the slack in the belt to securely restrain the occupant in the seat and prevent secondary collisions. The airbag consists of an inflation sensor and inflation system, and its purpose is to: protect occupants by reducing contact with interior objects, more evenly distributing head and chest impact forces, and absorbing the occupant's kinetic energy, thereby complementing the effectiveness of the seat belt.
