Methods to remove asphalt stains from a vehicle are as follows: 1. For recently adhered asphalt, you can use clean water to scrub it off. When scrubbing, keep the water temperature at room temperature or below, and use a bristle brush to avoid scratching the paint surface. 2. If scrubbing alone is insufficient to completely remove the stain, you can opt for a tar and asphalt remover for cleaning. Shake the remover well, then use a clean towel to apply a small amount onto the surface of the stain. Wait for two minutes until the asphalt particles adhering to the car body soften, then wipe them off with a lint-free towel. Immediately rinse the area with clean water and dry it afterward. Using a specialized tar and asphalt remover can effectively eliminate the stain without damaging the paint surface.

During highway traffic jams, you cannot use the emergency lane. Driving or parking in the emergency lane under non-emergency circumstances will result in a fine and a deduction of 6 points from your driver's license. According to the Regulations for the Implementation of the Road Traffic Safety Law of the People's Republic of China, motor vehicles driving on highways are prohibited from the following behaviors: driving or parking in the emergency lane under non-emergency situations. Situations where the emergency lane can be used include: 1. When a vehicle breaks down and cannot operate normally, it can be parked in the emergency lane, such as in cases of a flat tire or broken belt. However, when parking in the emergency lane, the hazard warning lights must be turned on, and a triangular warning sign must be placed 150 meters behind the vehicle. During nighttime, rain, fog, or other adverse weather conditions, the side marker lights, tail lights, and rear fog lights should also be turned on to alert other passing vehicles and avoid secondary accidents. 2. If someone in the vehicle suddenly falls ill and needs to wait for an ambulance, the emergency lane can also be used. However, minor illnesses do not qualify for the use of the emergency lane.

What is the firing order of a 6-cylinder diesel engine?

6-cylinder engine cylinders generally have a firing order of 1-5-3-6-2-4 (most commonly used). This working sequence ensures good operational uniformity and balance for the diesel engine, while preventing adjacent cylinders from firing consecutively, which benefits the operation of the crankshaft main bearings. Relevant details are as follows: 1. Crankshaft angle: The firing interval angle for a 6-cylinder diesel engine should be 120° crankshaft angle, with a mutual angle of 120° between each crank plane. 2.

Do I still need to display the insurance sticker in 2020?

Whether you need to display the insurance sticker in 2020 mainly depends on whether your local area has implemented an electronic policy policy. If not, you still need to display it. Cities like Shanghai, Shenzhen, and Shandong Province had already abolished the requirement for "displaying paper-based insurance stickers" in 2019, implementing electronic policy policies instead. The vehicle insurance sticker is one of the important indicators to confirm whether a motor vehicle has compulsory traffic insurance. It bears the words "Supervised by the China Insurance Regulatory Commission," with the policy in brown color. The main text uses internationally advanced red fluorescent anti-counterfeit ink, and the underline consists of microtext, providing good anti-counterfeiting features. Except for the reserved area for printing company logos for different insurers, the policy's specifications and format are standardized nationwide.

What does engine anti-theft authentication failure mean?

Engine anti-theft authentication failure occurs when the car key is not detected. This situation is mostly caused by either a dead key fob battery or water ingress in the windshield film. Dead key fob battery: Car remote keys contain internal batteries that typically last 2-3 years. When the battery dies, it needs replacement. The battery replacement process is similar for most vehicle keys. Remote keys generally have a mechanical key component - some keys may have this part retractable or concealed. For foldable keys, after extending the mechanical key, you can see the locking mechanism at the extension point. Using a special tool to press this lock allows for shell removal. Water ingress in windshield film: Water entering through the front windshield can cause vehicle short circuits. For proper protection, place a highly absorbent towel beneath the glass during windshield film installation. Alternatively, using water-based film application while keeping total water usage under 500ml, or employing professional installation, can prevent potential adverse effects from water entering the central control system during film application.

Can Non-Motor Vehicles Use Motor Vehicle Lanes?

Non-motor vehicles are generally not allowed to use motor vehicle lanes. However, if there is no dedicated non-motor vehicle lane or if the non-motor vehicle lane is blocked, they may temporarily use the motor vehicle lane. Relevant details are as follows: 1.
