It is not mandatory for cars to be equipped with fire extinguishers. According to relevant regulations: medium-sized and above passenger vehicles, as well as hazardous goods transport vehicles, should be equipped with fire extinguishers and fire-fighting equipment that are within their validity period. Failure to comply will result in a warning or corresponding fines. Although there are no strict requirements for private cars to have fire extinguishers, during the annual vehicle inspection, a fire extinguisher must be present in the car; otherwise, the inspection will not be passed. Cars can use dry powder fire extinguishers or water-based fire extinguishers. Dry powder fire extinguishers are quick and effective in extinguishing fires, and they are also inexpensive and widely applicable. Water-based fire extinguishers are further divided into water-based clean water fire extinguishers, water-based foam fire extinguishers, and water-based mist fire extinguishers, which are characterized by being dust-free, anti-suffocation, effective in fire extinguishing, and non-toxic and environmentally friendly.

How to Check the Production Date on Glass?

Here are the methods to check the production date of automotive glass: 1. The production date of the glass is usually located in the code at the lower left or lower right corner of the window glass. 2. The date is represented by small dots and numbers, where the number indicates the production year, and the dots indicate the month. The specific representation methods are as follows: (1) The number is the production year of the glass, representing the last digit of the year. You can determine it based on the vehicle's manufacturing date. (2) The small black dots indicate the production month of the glass. Some glass has the dots in front of the number, while others have them behind the number. (3) If the black dots are in front of the number, subtract the number of dots from 7. If the black dots are behind the number, subtract the number of dots from 13. The result is the production month of the glass. (4) Some glass may also have a few larger black dots after the production year and month, which are used to specify the week of the month.

How to Distinguish Between Three-Cylinder and Four-Cylinder Engines When Buying a Car?

You can directly ask the staff or check the car's , where the number of engine cylinders is usually indicated in the emission specifications. Below is a detailed introduction to three-cylinder and four-cylinder engines: 1. Three-cylinder engine: A three-cylinder engine consists of three cylinders. Inside it, three identical single cylinders are arranged on one engine block sharing a crankshaft to output power, converting chemical energy into mechanical energy. Its main use is to provide power for traditional fuel vehicles and new energy hybrid models. 2. Four-cylinder engine: A four-cylinder engine, also known as a four-cylinder engine, is a machine that can convert one form of energy into another more useful form of energy, usually converting chemical energy into mechanical energy. Sometimes, the term engine can refer to both the power generation device and the entire machine including the power device, such as gasoline engines and aircraft engines.

How to Repair a Small Dent on a Car?

Here are the specific methods for repairing small dents on a car: 1. Point the hair dryer nozzle at the dented area of the car, keeping a moderate distance. If too close, the high temperature may cause the paint to melt; if too far, the repair effect won't be achieved. 2. After using the hair dryer, prepare a cover to shield the dented area. Aluminum foil is recommended due to its excellent heat insulation properties, which help maintain the temperature of the dented area effectively. 3. Place dry ice on the aluminum foil. To prevent burns, wear thick gloves and use a clamp to position the dry ice on the foil. 4. If the dent is small, there's no need to move the dry ice back and forth. For larger dents, move the dry ice back and forth to ensure even cooling of the dented area. 5. After some time, if you hear a metallic sound, it indicates that the car dent is returning to its original shape.

What Are the Effects of a Bad Car Bearing?

Minor effects include reduced comfort: increased tire noise and vehicle deviation; while severe consequences can lead to suspension damage: causing steering system failure and resulting in traffic accidents. Below are specific methods to determine if a car bearing is damaged: 1. Open the car window to listen if the noise is coming from outside the vehicle. 2. Increase the speed and then shift to neutral to let the vehicle coast, observing whether the noise originates from the engine. If the humming noise remains unchanged while coasting in neutral, it is likely a wheel bearing issue. 3. Make a temporary stop, get out of the car, and check if the axle temperature is normal. Touch each of the four wheel hubs by hand to roughly feel if their temperatures are consistent. If the difference is minimal, continue driving slowly to the repair station. 4. Lift the car with a lift; if a lift is unavailable, use a jack to raise each wheel one by one. Manually rotate each of the four wheels quickly. When encountering a problematic axle, it will produce a noise distinctly different from the others. This method easily identifies which axle has an issue.

Is a green book required for new car registration?

After successfully registering a new car and obtaining the vehicle license, you will receive the green book, also known as the vehicle registration certificate. Important considerations when reviewing the vehicle registration certificate: Verify whether the owner's ID documents match those used for applying for the vehicle registration certificate, and check if the numbers correspond to confirm if it's a first-hand vehicle. Pay close attention to the content under the domestic/import section on the vehicle registration certificate: special attention is needed if terms like 'import', 'customs', 'administrative penalty confiscation', or 'overseas self-brought' are filled in, as these may affect the vehicle's selling price. Check the content under the usage nature section to see if it's for commercial or non-commercial use. If it's for commercial use, be cautious and promptly inform the pricing center. Also, check if there is any mortgage loan. To cancel the mortgage, the owner must contact the lending bank personally; otherwise, the vehicle cannot be transferred.
