First, use a flat-head screwdriver to open the plastic cover at the connection between the wiper arm and the wiper blade, then hold the wiper blade with your hand. Pull firmly along the direction of the wiper arm (the part where the base of the arm connects to the wiper pivot), and the wiper blade will come off.

Removing the wiper blades on a Skoda is actually not difficult, and the main steps are straightforward. I often do this myself and find it best to first remove the car key to prevent accidental movement of the wiper arm, which could damage the windshield. Then, gently lift the wiper arm until it is perpendicular to the windshield. Next, locate the connection point between the wiper blade and the arm—Skoda models commonly have a small clip or button. Press it with your finger while slowly pulling the wiper blade outward. You’ll hear a "click" when it releases. Avoid forcing it, as it might get stuck—I’ve made this mistake before, which can easily damage the plastic parts. Once done, clean the connector to prevent dust buildup, which could affect future installation. Removing the blades isn’t just for replacement; it also allows you to check if the wiper motor is functioning properly. The whole process doesn’t require many tools—just gloves will do—keeping it simple and safe.

How to Remove Marker Stains from a Car?

Take a piece of tissue or cloth and use a disposable cup to get some tap water; moisten the tissue or cloth with a small amount of water and wipe the marked area to remove the marker stains; after wiping, use a clean tissue to dry any remaining water marks. For oil-based marker stains, organic solvents such as methanol, ethanol, or toluene are needed for removal. However, for safety reasons, ordinary rubbing alcohol can be used. The method is as follows: 1. Take a piece of tissue or cloth and use a disposable cup to get some rubbing alcohol (if alcohol is not available, you can try using liquor). 2. Moisten the tissue or cloth with a small amount of alcohol and wipe the marked area to remove the marker stains. 3. After wiping, use a clean tissue to dry any remaining alcohol. Note: If you are allergic to alcohol, it is best to wear disposable gloves when handling alcohol to prevent skin contact and adverse reactions. First, prepare some toilet water for use.

Finally, the marker stains will be cleaned off. Markers are very useful but can sometimes cause accidental damage. If skin, walls, floors, or furniture get stained by markers, you can try this method to remove the stains.

Does the Engine Auto Start-Stop Technology Harm the Car?

Auto start-stop does not harm the car. The start-stop function only stops the engine from working, but the oil system does not stop. This means that even though the engine is not running, the oil will still circulate inside the engine, ensuring better lubrication when the car starts again and protecting the engine. The auto start-stop system is a system that can automatically control the engine's shutdown and ignition, known in English as STOP&START, abbreviated as STT. Vehicles equipped with engine auto start-stop technology will automatically shut off the engine when temporarily stopping during driving. When it's time to move forward again, the system will automatically restart the engine. Generally, the auto start-stop function is enabled by default in vehicles, but owners can choose to turn it off if they don't need it. Pros and cons of the auto start-stop system: Pros: Fuel savings; Whether waiting at a red light or stuck in traffic, the engine auto start-stop technology can automatically turn off the engine when the car stops, achieving the goal of saving fuel. Cons: Increased vehicle costs; Cars with an auto start-stop system are several thousand dollars more expensive than those without. Additionally, due to the frequent starting and stopping of the engine, there is a higher demand for oil quality, leading to further increases in maintenance costs.

Can You Enter the Highway Without an ETC in Your Car?

Cars without ETC can still enter the highway because ETC is not mandatory. Starting from January 1, 2020, vehicles without ETC will no longer enjoy various toll reduction policies and can only pay tolls through manual lanes at toll stations. It might be a bit inconvenient during holidays. ETC is just a different method of toll collection and does not affect the ability to enter the highway. There are two methods of toll collection on highways: manual toll collection and ETC toll collection. ETC stands for Electronic-Toll-Collection, which means electronic toll collection system. To apply for ETC, you need to provide the original and photocopies of the vehicle owner's valid ID card and vehicle license. If the application is not made by the owner, the agent's valid ID card is also required. The photocopy of the vehicle license should include the page with the most recent annual inspection stamp. Additionally, a bank card for deducting highway tolls is required. Applicants must be between 18 and 60 years old, and the vehicle must be registered under their name. The working principle of ETC: Through the onboard electronic tag installed on the vehicle's windshield, it communicates with the microwave antenna in the ETC lane of the toll station. Using computer networking technology, it settles the toll with the bank in the background, allowing the vehicle to pass through the highway or bridge toll station without stopping to pay the toll. Benefits of installing ETC: Time-saving: Eliminates the hassle of waiting in line; Green and eco-friendly: Reduces noise and exhaust emissions as vehicles pass through toll stations without stopping; Cost-saving: Reduces vehicle startup and braking frequency, minimizing wear and fuel consumption. Users can also enjoy toll discounts; Improved efficiency: ETC lanes can theoretically increase passing efficiency by 2-3 times, making traditional ETC more updated, faster, and more high-tech. Compared to license plate payment, ETC technology is more mature and advantageous.

How many times can you take the Subject 1 test consecutively?

The "Regulations on the Application and Use of Motor Vehicle Driver's Licenses" clearly stipulates that the Subject 1 test can be taken twice on the same day. If you fail the first attempt, you can take a second free retest. If you still fail the second attempt, the Subject 1 test will be terminated, and you can only schedule another test after ten days. Subject 1, also known as the Subject 1 theory test or driver's theory test, is part of the motor vehicle driver's license assessment. The test content includes driving theory basics, road safety laws and regulations, local regulations, and related knowledge. The test is conducted on a computer with a time limit of 45 minutes. A passing score for the Subject 1 test is 90 points. The test consists of 100 questions, divided into single-choice and true/false questions, with each question worth 1 point (total score: 100 points). If you answer 11 questions incorrectly during the test, the system will automatically submit the test and end the session. Subject 1 test content includes: driver's license and motor vehicle management regulations; road traffic conditions and regulations; road traffic safety violations and penalties; road traffic accident handling regulations; basic motor vehicle knowledge; local regulations; knowledge of braking systems and safety devices for large and medium-sized passenger and freight vehicles; specialized knowledge for wheeled self-propelled machinery, trams, and trolleybuses. Subject 1 test precautions: During the test, students should pay attention to their attire—no slippers are allowed. Electronic devices and bags are prohibited in the examination room. Bring your ID card and queue to enter the waiting hall. Observe the precautions and procedures on the large screen, and store personal belongings in lockers before entering the examination room. Upon entering, verify your identity at the assigned seat and begin the test. Ensure the camera is aligned with you and follow test discipline. If you fail the first attempt, a retest is available on the same day. If you fail again, you must pay to reschedule. After completion, queue to collect your score report and sign it—unsigned reports are invalid. There is no limit to the number of times you can schedule the Subject 1 test. Each subject test can be taken once, and if you fail, you can retake it once. If you do not take the retest or fail the retest, the test session ends, and you must reschedule. In contrast, Subject 2 and Subject 3 have only five test attempts, and rescheduling must be done at least ten days later. If you fail the Subject 3 safe driving knowledge test, your previously passed road driving skills test results remain valid. The driver's license test consists of three subjects: Subject 1, Subject 2, and Subject 3. Subject 1 refers to the road traffic safety laws, regulations, and related knowledge test. Subject 2 refers to the field driving skills test. Subject 3 is divided into two parts: road driving skills and safe driving knowledge. The safe driving knowledge test is conducted after Subject 3, so it is commonly referred to as Subject 4. However, the official term (as per the Ministry of Public Security Order No. 123) does not include "Subject 4."
