Vehicle annual inspection requires a fire extinguisher. Both the vehicle's fire extinguisher and warning triangle are essential items during the annual inspection. Some vehicles do not come equipped with a fire extinguisher when leaving the factory. Therefore, car owners should prepare one themselves for their own safety and to pass the annual inspection smoothly. Below is additional information: 1. Note: During the annual inspection, the vehicle management office will check the vehicle's lights. If the vehicle's lights are found to be too dim or too bright, it will be deemed unqualified and will not pass the annual inspection. Therefore, it is necessary to check the vehicle's lights in advance before the annual inspection. If the lights are too dim, check the light circuits and whether the bulbs are aged, and replace relevant parts if necessary. If xenon headlights have been installed, it is recommended to restore the original headlights before the annual inspection to pass the test. 2. Vehicle braking performance: The braking performance of a vehicle is one of the most important indicators of vehicle safety and is a mandatory inspection item during the annual inspection. Therefore, it is necessary to check the brake system in advance before the annual inspection. Brake fluid and brake pads are two key areas that need attention in the brake system. Dirty brake fluid or excessive water content can lead to soft brakes, and excessive wear of brake pads can result in reduced braking force and abnormal brake noise.

What are the reasons for the increase in engine oil in Honda Civic?

The reasons for the increase in engine oil in Honda Civic are as follows: 1. The engine injects a large amount of gasoline when starting. Due to excessive injection and incomplete combustion, the excessive pressure on the cylinder wall forces gasoline into the crankcase. 2. Normally, gasoline will evaporate after the engine temperature rises. However, frequent cold starts and cold weather can prevent the engine oil temperature from rising, making it difficult for gasoline to evaporate, resulting in a continuous increase in engine oil. The following are the hazards of increased engine oil in Honda Civic: Normally, engine oil is viscous and can maintain lubrication for the engine. However, when the engine oil increases and mixes with un-evaporated gasoline, it will gradually become diluted, reducing lubrication and sealing performance, and allowing pollutants to enter. Some emulsification phenomena are caused by diluted engine oil and reduced sealing, which then allows incompatible impurities such as water to enter, leading to severe engine wear.

What are the precautions for jump-starting a car?

Precautions for jump-starting a car are as follows: 1. Use jump-start cables that meet the requirements; 2. Ensure the battery holder and battery are securely connected, as poor contact can cause sparks or excessive heat; 3. Check the labeled voltage of both batteries to ensure they are the same; 4. Put the car in neutral, engage the handbrake, and start the engine; 5. If the first attempt fails, wait a minute or two before trying again. Reasons to pay attention to the connection sequence when jump-starting: 1. Most vehicles have negative grounding, meaning the metal parts of the car are connected to the negative terminal. 2. A short circuit in the battery can be extremely dangerous, and the presence of flammable engine oil and gasoline in the car can easily lead to accidents. 3. Sometimes, small amounts of hydrogen gas may accumulate around the battery, and there is a slight risk of spark-induced hydrogen combustion during the connection process, though this scenario is very unlikely.

What does 'max' mean on the air conditioning?

The 'max' button on the car air conditioning refers to the maximum cooling mode. Below is more information about car air conditioning: 1. Car air conditioning is a very important comfort feature in vehicles, used almost daily during summer and winter. 2. Car air conditioning can both cool and heat. The cooling principle of car air conditioning is quite simple: during cooling, the compressor clutch engages, allowing the engine to drive the compressor. The compressor then continuously compresses the refrigerant and delivers it to the evaporator. Inside the evaporator, the refrigerant expands and absorbs heat, cooling the evaporator. The cooled evaporator then cools the air blown by the blower, allowing the car air conditioning to blow cold air. 3. The refrigerant used in car air conditioning is R134a, which needs to be replaced regularly. Otherwise, the cooling speed may slow down, and the cooling effect may deteriorate. The heating principle of car air conditioning is also simple: during heating, the high-temperature coolant from the engine flows through the heater core, and the air blown by the blower passes through the heater core, allowing the car air conditioning to blow warm air.

How to Tell if a Car's Charcoal Canister is Damaged?

About the specific introduction of car charcoal canister damage is as follows: 1. Determine whether the charcoal canister is damaged. Remove the charcoal canister solenoid valve, blow air into the intake port with your mouth. If the air does not pass through, it means the charcoal canister is normal. If the air passes through, it means the charcoal canister is leaking and has been damaged. 2. The role of the charcoal canister. The main function of the charcoal canister is to adsorb and filter the gasoline vapor inside the fuel tank. The solenoid valve controls the fuel vapor to enter the engine to participate in combustion, thereby reducing fuel consumption and preventing excessive fuel tank pressure. 3. Symptoms of a problematic charcoal canister. After the car's charcoal canister solenoid valve has problems, the vehicle will show some symptoms, such as abnormal noises when the vehicle is running, the engine speed is above 800 rpm, and abnormal noises can be heard; the car jerks when accelerating by stepping on the throttle, and the gasoline smell in the car becomes stronger.

What is the difference between position lights and daytime running lights?

Introduction to the difference between position lights and daytime running lights: 1. Position lights are generally turned on after dusk and are mainly used to indicate the width and height of the car while driving. Typically, position lights are white at the front and red at the rear. 2. Daytime running lights are designed to make the vehicle more visible during daytime driving. Their purpose is not to help the driver see the road, so these lights are not illumination lights but rather signal lights. Here is more information: 1. Position lights are located at the four corners of the vehicle, both front and rear, while daytime running lights are only at the front. 2. Position lights need to be manually turned on, whereas daytime running lights do not—they automatically turn on when the car starts and turn off when the engine is shut off. 3. Position lights are usually tungsten filament bulbs (halogen lights) with a yellowish and dimmer light, while daytime running lights are generally LED lights. 4. However, many cars now use the same light for both front position lights and daytime running lights, though the position light mode is dimmer than the daytime running light mode.
