How to Remove and Install Car Tires?

First, slightly loosen the tire nuts on the ground, then jack up the car and remove the nuts. Most car nuts are sized 17, 19, 18, or 21, and it's best to use a socket wrench for removal. Loosen all the nuts of the tire to be removed. Position the jack at the designated point on the car (locations vary by brand; refer to the vehicle manual). Once the tire is off the ground, tap around the tire with a hammer to loosen it (some people use their feet), then pull the tire off the bolts. Fit the replacement tire onto the bolts and hand-tighten all the nuts (since the tire is suspended, it's hard to tighten fully; use a socket wrench to tighten them just enough). Lower the jack to let the tire touch the ground. Use a torque wrench (with adjustable tightening force) set to the specified torque value as per the vehicle manual. Tighten the nuts in a diagonal sequence: 12←→6, 10←→4, 8←→2 (some tires have five nuts; follow the same diagonal pattern—never tighten them in order). The tire change is now complete. Note: Some people, lacking a torque wrench, resort to using a socket wrench and tightening the nuts by stepping on the handle. This is not recommended. If the nuts are too loose, they may come off while driving; overtightening by stepping can break the bolts. Following the manufacturer's specified torque value is the safest approach.

What is the distance between two rows of parking spaces?

The distance between two rows of parking spaces can be calculated in the following two ways: 1. Parallel parking: The land area for public parking lots is calculated based on the number of small car parking spaces. The minimum size for parallel parking spaces is 6 meters × 2.5 meters, and parallel parking is generally more commonly used. 2. Perpendicular parking: The land area for public parking lots is calculated based on the number of small car parking spaces. The minimum size for perpendicular parking spaces is 6.5 meters × 2 meters. Relevant legal provisions for underground parking spaces are as follows: Article 275 of the Civil Code of the People's Republic of China stipulates that the ownership of parking spaces and garages planned for parking within building areas shall be agreed upon by the parties through sale, gift, lease, or other means. Parking spaces that occupy roads or other areas shared by property owners belong to the property owners collectively.

Can I continue driving if the Sagitar shakes after wading through water but then returns to normal?

If the vehicle shakes after wading through water, you must not continue driving. You should promptly take it to a repair facility for inspection and treatment to identify and resolve the cause of the shaking. The reasons for shaking after wading through water are as follows: 1. The engine's electrical components or wiring harness may have been submerged, causing signal loss or distortion, which leads to engine shaking. During repairs, inspect and confirm the faulty components, then proceed with treatment or replacement to resolve the issue. 2. If shaking occurs after wading through water, it is possible that water has entered the engine cylinders, causing damage to mechanical components such as the connecting rods. If these are not replaced, the deformed connecting rods may eventually break, leading to extensive damage to engine components like the cylinder block. The repair costs for such damage can be significantly higher.

Is the particulate filter of the Tayron 1.4T prone to clogging?

The particulate filter of the Tayron 1.4T is prone to clogging. A particulate filter is a ceramic filter installed in the exhaust system of diesel engines, which captures particulate emissions before they enter the atmosphere. Function of the particulate filter: The particulate filter can reduce the soot produced by diesel engines by more than 90%, and the captured particulate emissions are subsequently burned off during vehicle operation. The methods for handling clogged particulate filters differ between diesel and gasoline vehicles, as follows: For diesel vehicles, simply press the regeneration button in the car. The engine will then increase its RPM while stationary, and generally, the particulate filter will be cleaned in about ten minutes, resolving the clogging issue. For gasoline vehicles, the owner should first shift the car into S gear and then drive at high speed for a period of time. When the car is driven at high speed, the temperature of the exhaust pipe will rise, and the clogged particles in the particulate filter will be burned off, solving the clogging problem once the burning is complete. If the particulate filter is severely clogged and the above two methods do not resolve the issue, the particulate filter can be sent to an auto repair shop or 4S store for professional cleaning with specialized equipment.

How to Make Up for Overdue Vehicle Inspection?

Methods for making up overdue vehicle inspection: Receive safety education and obtain the make-up inspection form. Bring the vehicle management card, make-up inspection form, road maintenance fee certificate, vehicle license, third-party liability insurance certificate and its copy, and vehicle and vessel tax certificate for various documents required for external inspection. Go to the vehicle inspection station for testing and submit the documents to the traffic police detachment's education department. The handling methods for vehicles with overdue inspection are as follows: 1. If a vehicle is involved in an accident without annual inspection, the insurance will not cover the claim: If the insured vehicle is not inspected according to relevant regulations or fails the inspection, the insurer will not be liable for compensation. The insurance contract stipulates that it only applies to qualified and legal vehicles. 2. Vehicles that are not inspected will be impounded and fined: According to the relevant provisions of the "Road Traffic Safety Law", drivers of vehicles that have not been inspected as required may be fined 200 yuan and deducted 3 points, and the vehicle will be temporarily impounded.

Will points be deducted if the license plate is dented in a collision?

Points will not be deducted if the use is not affected, and there is no problem as long as the information on the vehicle's license plate can be clearly seen. Below is a detailed introduction regarding the situation of a dented car license plate: 1. Overview: If the license plate is bent at too large an angle, making the numbers inside invisible, it may be considered as intentionally obscuring the license plate number and subject to penalties. If traffic police find that the vehicle's license plate is slightly deformed but does not affect the identification of the license plate number, no penalty will be imposed on the owner. However, you may be stopped and informed that there are signs of bending or deformation on the license plate. 2. Others: Motor vehicle license plates should be installed and hung in accordance with the installation standards set by the Ministry of Public Security in the "People's Republic of China Motor Vehicle License Plate." The front license plate should be installed in the middle or slightly to the right of the front section of the vehicle, and the rear license plate should be installed in the middle or slightly to the left of the rear section, without affecting the safe driving of the vehicle or the identification of the license plate.
