Fault codes on the dashboard will affect the vehicle inspection. It is recommended to clear them in advance at a repair shop using a decoder. Vehicle inspection is conducted once a year for vehicles under 10 years old, and every 6 months for vehicles over 10 years old. For small and micro non-operational passenger vehicles, inspection is required once every 2 years within the first 6 years, once a year after 6 years, and every 6 months after 15 years. Relevant information about vehicle annual inspection is as follows: 1. Introduction: Vehicle annual inspection (Vehicles-inspection), also known as motor vehicle inspection. Depending on the usage nature of the motor vehicle, the inspection items and scope vary. 2. Inspection items: According to the definition in RB/T218-2017 "Requirements for Qualification Assessment of Inspection and Testing Institutions - Motor Vehicle Inspection Institutions", motor vehicle inspection includes three categories: motor vehicle safety technical inspection, motor vehicle emission inspection, and comprehensive performance inspection of motor vehicles.

What are the precautions for the Subject 2 driving test?

Precautions for the Subject 2 driving test are as follows: First, ensure adequate sleep. The night before the exam, make sure to rest well to avoid involuntary nervousness or dizziness during the test the next day. Second, bring your ID card. You must carry your ID card to the exam; without it, you cannot participate. Third, prepare properly. When you get into the test vehicle, remember to adjust the seat and mirrors to the most comfortable and convenient position for you. Unfamiliarity with the mirrors and seat can directly affect your judgment during the test. Fourth, control your speed when reversing into the parking space. Remember, it's better to turn the steering wheel early rather than late, and anticipate the reference points to leave room for adjustments. Fifth, maintain a slow and steady speed when parallel parking. Sixth, for curve driving, try to enter close to the outer side of the curve, turn the steering wheel slowly, and observe the mirrors to avoid the rear wheels crossing the line. Seventh, for right-angle turns, assess the relationship between the car and the corner, find the optimal point, and turn directly without delay to prevent crossing the line. Eighth, for hill starts, remember to turn on the left indicator light and carefully control the clutch to prevent the car from stalling or rolling backward.

What are the differences between purchasing National 5 and National 6?

National 5 and National 6 have the following differences: 1. Different carbon monoxide emissions: National 5 has a carbon monoxide emission of 1,000 milligrams; National 6 has a carbon monoxide emission of 700 milligrams. 2. Different emission limits: The emission limit for National 5 is 0.0045 grams per kilometer; for National 6, it is 0.0025 grams per kilometer. 3. Different issuing departments: The National 5 standard was issued by the Ministry of Environmental Protection, while the National 6 standard was issued by the Ministry of Environmental Protection and the General Administration of Quality Supervision, Inspection and Quarantine. 4. Different letter representations: National 5 is represented by V, and National 6 is represented by VI. Both National 5 and National 6 are regulations that limit the content of harmful gases such as carbon monoxide, hydrocarbons, nitrogen oxides, particulate matter, and carbon smoke emitted from vehicle exhaust.

What Causes Vehicle Body Shaking at Idle Speed?

There are primarily four major reasons for vehicle body shaking at idle speed: 1. Severe engine carbon buildup. When there is excessive carbon buildup inside the engine, the gasoline sprayed by the cold start fuel injector will be largely absorbed by the carbon deposits, resulting in an overly lean air-fuel mixture during cold starts and making it difficult to start. The solution is to clean the fuel system and check if the idle speed control valve has carbon buildup that needs cleaning. 2. Ignition system issues. Inspect the working condition of the spark plugs, high-voltage wires, and ignition coils. The solution is to check if the spark plugs have excessive carbon buildup and replace them if necessary. 3. Unstable fuel pressure. If you have already cleaned the engine carbon deposits, cleaned the throttle body, replaced the fuel pads and spark plugs, but still notice body shaking at idle speed, you need to visit a 4S shop to check whether the fuel supply pressure and intake pressure sensor are functioning properly. Abnormal fuel pump supply pressure or incorrect readings and poor performance of the intake pressure sensor can all cause body shaking. The solution is to check the fuel pressure and replace components if necessary. 4. Aging engine components. Engine mounts are the shock absorption system of the engine, responsible for absorbing minor vibrations during engine operation. If the engine mounts are faulty, these vibrations will be transmitted to the steering wheel and the cabin, causing shaking at idle speed.

How long does it take to fully charge a car battery after starting the engine?

It takes approximately half an hour to fully charge a car battery. Below is additional information: 1. Cars use alternators for charging, and the battery's power is primarily used to start the vehicle, which consumes a significant amount. However, once the engine is running, the battery's power is no longer depleted. 2. The power consumed during startup is replenished through the vehicle's charging circuit. 3. The battery can charge while the car is idling, but the charging current will be relatively small. 4. If the car battery is completely dead, it generally requires about 12 hours of charging. The exact time largely depends on the battery's condition, and a full charge for a car starting battery may take up to 20 hours.

How often should the fuel filter of a BMW X1 be replaced?

BMW X1 fuel filter should be replaced every 30,000 to 40,000 kilometers. Relevant information about the fuel filter is as follows: Introduction to Fuel Filter: Fuel filters are categorized into diesel filters, gasoline filters, and natural gas filters. The function of a fuel filter is to block particles, water, and impurities in the fuel, ensuring that the precision components of the fuel system are protected from wear and other damage. The gasoline filter is commonly referred to as the fuel filter. Gasoline filters can be divided into carburetor type and fuel injection type. In gasoline engines using carburetors, the gasoline filter is located on the inlet side of the fuel pump, operating under lower pressure, and typically features a nylon housing. In fuel injection engines, the gasoline filter is located on the outlet side of the fuel pump, operating under higher pressure, and usually has a metal housing. The filter element of a gasoline filter is mostly made of filter paper, although some use nylon cloth or polymer materials. The main function of a gasoline filter is to remove impurities from gasoline. If the gasoline filter becomes excessively dirty or clogged. In-line filter paper gasoline filters: Inside such filters, folded filter paper is connected to both ends of a plastic or metal filter. Dirty fuel enters and passes through layers of filter paper from the outer wall to the center, allowing clean fuel to flow out. Function of the Gasoline Filter: The gasoline filter removes water and impurities from gasoline, reducing the likelihood of the injector being clogged by impurities and ensuring the quality of gasoline entering the fuel system. The BMW X1 is a compact SUV under the BMW brand, with dimensions of 4454mm in length, 1798mm in width, and 1545mm in height, and a wheelbase of 2760mm. In terms of appearance, the BMW X1 has some changes near the front fog lights compared to the older model, with a line passing through the front face. The overall side profile of the body remains the same—sporty and elongated, with the hood, waistline, windows, and rear all leaning forward.
