An imported car that has been in stock for 1 year is considered a stock car. The manufacturing date marked on the nameplate in the engine compartment indicates the actual stock time of the vehicle. Imported cars with a stock time exceeding 6 months can be classified as stock cars. Additionally, if there are obvious signs of aging on parts such as the wipers, engine belts, and tires, the imported car can also be considered a stock car. Methods for handling stock cars: 1. Dismantle the stock car and sell important parts such as the engine and transmission; 2. Stock cars can also be sold through internal purchases. If the stock quantity is limited, they are often sold to employees at very low prices, which not only clears the stock but also provides a benefit to the employees. Many 4S stores adopt this method.

What are the causes of car shaking?

Car shaking may be caused by engine misfire, worn or loose engine mounts, ignition system failure, unstable oil pressure, excessively dirty air filter, clogged fuel injectors, spark plug failure, etc. Here is a detailed introduction about car spark plugs: Overview: The car spark plug (spark plug), commonly known as the spark plug, is used to discharge the pulsed high voltage sent by the high-voltage wire (spark plug wire), breaking down the air between the two electrodes of the spark plug to generate an electric spark, thereby igniting the mixed gas in the cylinder. It can be roughly divided into standard spark plugs and insulator-protruding spark plugs. Others: The basic conditions for a high-performance engine are high-energy stable sparks, evenly mixed gas, and a high compression ratio. The key part of the spark plug is the insulator. The insulator of the spark plug must have good mechanical properties, high voltage resistance, high-temperature impact resistance, and chemical corrosion resistance. Ordinary spark plugs are mostly made of alumina-based ceramics.

Do I Need to Pay for Failing the Subject 1 Test?

No additional fee is required for the Subject 1 test, as the examination cost is already included in the registration fee. However, a retake fee applies for supplementary exams. According to the "Regulations on the Application and Use of Motor Vehicle Driver's Licenses," candidates can take the Subject 1 test twice on the same day. If the first attempt is unsuccessful, a second free retake is allowed. If the second attempt also fails, the Subject 1 test is terminated, and the candidate must wait ten days before reapplying. Subject 1, also known as the theoretical driving test or driver's theory exam, is part of the motor vehicle driver's license assessment. The test covers driving theory basics, road safety laws, local regulations, and related knowledge. The Subject 1 test consists of 100 questions, including single-choice and true/false questions, each worth 1 point, totaling 100 points. If a candidate answers 11 questions incorrectly, the system automatically submits the test and ends the session. The Subject 1 test is computer-based and has a time limit of 45 minutes. Subject 1 Test Content: Regulations on driver's licenses and motor vehicle management; Road traffic conditions and rules; Road traffic safety violations and penalties; Road traffic accident handling regulations; Basic knowledge of motor vehicles; 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 Notes: Candidates should dress appropriately (no slippers) and are prohibited from bringing electronic devices or bags into the examination hall. They must bring their ID card and queue to enter the waiting area. Observe the instructions and procedures displayed on the screen and store personal belongings in lockers before entering the exam hall. Upon entering, candidates are assigned seats at the identity verification counter. After finding their seat, they can begin the test. Ensure the camera is aligned correctly and adhere to exam discipline. If the first attempt fails, a same-day retake is allowed. If the retake also fails, a fee is required to reschedule. After completion, candidates must queue to collect and sign their score report; unsigned reports are considered invalid. There is no limit to the number of times a candidate can reschedule the Subject 1 test. Each subject allows one initial attempt and one retake. If the retake is unsuccessful or skipped, the test is terminated, and the candidate must reschedule. In contrast, Subject 2 and Subject 3 allow only five attempts each, with a mandatory ten-day waiting period between rescheduling. If the Subject 3 safe driving knowledge test is failed, the 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 tests. The safe driving knowledge test is conducted after Subject 3, so it is commonly referred to as Subject 4, although this term is not officially recognized in the regulations (i.e., the Ministry of Public Security's Order No. 123).

Below are precautions for driving through flooded road sections: 1. Inspection before entering: Before entering the water, someone must inspect the water to determine the depth, road width, water flow speed, the extent of damage to the road caused by the water, and whether the water level is rising or falling. Based on these inspections, confirm whether the conditions are suitable for the vehicle to pass. If the conditions are not safe for passage, do not risk entering the water. 2. Protective measures: When it is confirmed that passage is possible, take necessary protective measures for the vehicle, such as closing the shutters, raising the position of the battery, waterproofing the electrical system, and elevating the exhaust outlet of the muffler.
