Temporary license plates cannot be used once official plates are issued, regardless of whether the temporary plates have expired or not. Below are the relevant details: 1. Explanation: Temporary license plates are used temporarily before obtaining the official ones. Once official plates are received, the vehicle must be driven with them. Temporary plates become invalid as soon as official plates are issued, regardless of their expiration status. Therefore, vehicle owners must install the official license plates on their vehicles immediately upon receipt. 2. Maximum duration for temporary plates: For new vehicles purchased by ordinary consumers for temporary driving within the same administrative region, temporary plates are issued for a maximum of 15 days. For temporary driving across different administrative regions, temporary plates are issued for a maximum of 30 days.

How to Solve Abnormal Noise When Starting a Car Engine?

There are generally two reasons for a sizzling sound after the engine starts: 1. If the car hasn't been moved for a long time, the engine oil will return to the oil pan. When starting the vehicle, the valves will lack the sealing and lubrication of the oil, resulting in a sizzling sound. This is a normal situation. 2. Abnormal noise from the belt during startup. In this case, it is necessary to promptly check whether the belt has a problem. Here are the solutions for belt noise: 1. If there is belt noise, first check the assembly. The noise may be caused by friction between the timing belt and the timing cover. You can loosen the screws on the timing cover by half a turn to observe if the noise disappears. 2. Next, check the condition of the generator belt. It may be the accessory belt causing the noise. If the timing belt tension is adjusted too tightly, remove the generator and air conditioning power steering belts to determine if the issue lies with these belts. 3. The timing belt tensioner may be faulty, usually requiring replacement along with the timing belt. The noise could also be due to issues with individual engine bearings. Carefully identify the specific source of the sound. If the exact cause cannot be determined, it is recommended to visit a professional repair shop for inspection to determine the cause.

How to Use the S Gear?

Correct methods for using the S gear in a car are as follows: 1. Overtaking: The issue with the S gear is that it consumes much more fuel because it maintains lower gears and revs higher. The D gear is more fuel-efficient than the S gear, but it doesn't provide as direct power. Many people use the S gear for overtaking and then switch back to the D gear after completing the maneuver. 2. Carbon deposit removal: Engaging the S gear can increase the engine load and raise the temperature inside in a short time, which is beneficial for removing carbon deposits in the engine. 3. Uphill driving: Many drivers use the D gear when climbing slopes, but using the S gear provides more power, making uphill driving easier.
