For low-quality films on cars, you can simply peel them off by hand. However, for high-quality car films, you need to seek professional help or purchase specialized tools for removal. The primary professional tool is an adhesive removal knife, which differs from regular knives to prevent scratching the car glass during the adhesive removal process. After peeling off the film, the crucial task is to remove the sticky adhesive. At this point, you can purchase cleaning solution from a car detailing shop or directly ask the professionals there to assist in removal. If you don't have adhesive removal tools, you can repeatedly use the cleaning solution until the adhesive is completely removed. If you have the tools, you can repeat the aforementioned process. For stubborn residues, you can first use a knife to scrape and then apply the cleaning solution.

What causes the clicking sound when releasing the brake during auto start-stop?

It's normal for new cars during the break-in period. There are multiple reasons that may cause abnormal brake noises, such as rust or large metal particles. As long as it doesn't affect braking performance, it's not a concern. Additional information: Engine Auto Start-Stop: Engine auto start-stop is a system that automatically shuts off the engine when the vehicle comes to a temporary stop (e.g., at traffic lights) during driving. The system automatically restarts the engine when it's time to move forward again. Working Principle: The start-stop system works by detecting when the vehicle stops due to traffic congestion or at intersections. When the driver presses the brake pedal and shifts to neutral, the Start/Stop system automatically checks three conditions: the engine is idling in neutral; wheel speed sensors from the anti-lock system show zero rotation; and the electronic battery sensor indicates sufficient energy for the next start. When all three conditions are met, the engine automatically stops.

Can the Original Driving License Still Be Used After Reporting It Lost?

After reporting the loss of a driving license, the original license becomes invalid and cannot be used. Consequences of Continuing to Use the Old Driving License: Continued use may involve fraudulent or bribery activities related to the reissuance, replacement of vehicle registration certificates, license plates, driving licenses, and inspection stickers, and may result in a warning from the traffic management department of the public security authority. Relevant Legal Provisions: According to the "Regulations on the Application and Use of Motor Vehicle Driving Licenses" (Order No. 123 of the Ministry of Public Security): If the original driving license is lost and then found after a replacement has been issued, the driver must surrender the original license to the vehicle management office or destroy it themselves, and is not allowed to use both simultaneously. According to the "Regulations on the Application and Use of Motor Vehicle Driving Licenses" (Order No. 123 of the Ministry of Public Security): After a driver replaces their driving license, the original license becomes invalid and must not be used further. If a driver violates this regulation and continues to use the original license, the traffic management department of the public security authority will impose a fine and confiscate the original license.

Does Replacing the Radiator Count as an Accident Vehicle?

Replacing the radiator does not count as an accident vehicle. Below are specific criteria for identifying an accident vehicle: 1. Inspect the Exterior: Any accident vehicle, after major repairs, will show noticeable differences in the gaps between body panels and the waistline of the car. 2. Observe the Doors: Doors that have not been removed should open and close smoothly. Doors that have been removed and reinstalled multiple times may be difficult to operate, have damaged seals, or may not close properly without extra force. After removing the door seals, normal vehicles should have weld points that are perfectly round and slightly recessed. If the weld points are rough and unevenly spaced, and there are color differences in the paint on both sides of the A-pillar, B-pillar, or C-pillar, it is certain that the vehicle is an accident vehicle. 3. Check the A, B, C, and D Pillars: Look for signs of deformation, cutting, panel repairs, or repainting. If any are found, the vehicle likely has been involved in a significant accident.

Is the Volkswagen Tharu's Transmission Wet or Dry?

Volkswagen Tharu's transmission is wet. Below is a detailed introduction to the Volkswagen Tharu's transmission: 1. The Tharu is equipped with a 7-speed dual-clutch transmission. The 1.4T model comes with a 7-speed dry dual-clutch, while the 2.0T model features a 7-speed wet dual-clutch. 2. A dual-clutch transmission (DCT) differs from conventional automatic transmission systems. It combines the flexibility of a manual transmission with the comfort of an automatic transmission, while also providing uninterrupted power output. 3. The dual-clutch transmission separates the odd and even gears of a manual transmission onto solid and hollow shafts, adding an extra clutch along with a control solenoid valve box and a micro-electromechanical control system. Its basic mechanical structure includes an additional hollow shaft and clutch compared to a manual transmission. 4. Dual-clutch transmissions are divided into dry and wet types. Both operate on a similar principle, with two clutches taking turns to work. However, the connection medium between the clutch's driving and driven discs differs: dry dual-clutch transmissions use air, while wet dual-clutch transmissions use oil.

What to Use When the Adhesive of a Dash Cam No Longer Sticks?

If the adhesive of a dash cam no longer sticks, you can apply some water to the suction cup before attaching it to the windshield for a firmer hold. If it still doesn’t adhere, it is recommended to use 3M double-sided tape. Several factors affect adhesion, primarily including temperature, time, and pressure. Prolonged exposure to high temperatures can reduce adhesion, making it difficult to ensure the dash cam stays in place when the car is parked or not in use during hot weather. High temperatures cause the adhesive to decompose, releasing gas, while the expansion of gas between the adhesive and the material due to heat can counteract surface pressure. This is why adhesive failure and dash cams falling off frequently occur in hot weather. Before installing the dash cam, clean the installation area on the windshield thoroughly and use a hairdryer to warm the adhesive tape for better adhesion. Alternatively, you can opt for a rearview mirror-mounted dash cam, which can be secured onto the rearview mirror using clips or elastic straps. This method is simpler and more stable compared to suction cups or adhesive tapes.
