It is not safe to keep fuel additives in the car during summer. Here is some information about fuel additives: 1. Introduction: It is a type of automotive chemical, also commonly known as the third-generation gasoline detergent. 2. Function: Its purpose is to address the carbon deposit issues in the fuel system of fuel-injected vehicles, quickly restore the engine's optimal working condition, and compensate for certain deficiencies in gasoline properties, while imparting new beneficial characteristics such as improved atomization, reduced wear, engine protection, and lower emissions. 3. Emission Reduction: Due to poor atomization, incomplete combustion of gasoline can produce large amounts of black smoke. Fuel additives can effectively reduce the activation energy of combustion, improve atomization efficiency, and allow non-combustible gums in the fuel to fully burn, thereby eliminating black smoke and reducing emissions. After five consecutive applications, a visible reduction or complete elimination of black smoke can be observed.

Can a car purchased in another city be registered locally?

Yes, it is possible. For specific implementation methods, you can consult the local 4S store, as there may be some differences in rules due to regional variations. Although "buying a car in another city and registering it locally" is considered by many car buyers as one of the most cost-effective methods, the money saved may bring endless troubles. Industry insiders point out that some car brands and models do not support cross-regional purchases at all, and after-sales services like warranties are not guaranteed. Buyers should not risk losing more for the sake of small gains, saving money only to buy trouble. Purchase the car at a 4S store in your chosen city. Prepare a temporary license plate, which you can request from the dealer, and keep it for backup. Before departure, contact the local insurance company in advance, send them the VIN of the car you purchased, and buy the corresponding compulsory traffic insurance, third-party liability insurance, and car damage insurance as the main coverage. Then, go through the local registration procedures. Prepare the original and a copy of the certificate of conformity, the original purchase invoice, the owner's ID card, and the insurance policy. With these materials ready, you can go to the local vehicle management office for vehicle inspection, pay the purchase tax, select a license plate number, and complete the procedures for the vehicle license.

Is it mandatory to install GPS for car loans?

Installing a GPS tracker is not mandatory when purchasing a car with a loan. Whether to install a GPS tracker can be negotiated between both parties, and there is no issue if both agree to the installation. However, if one party forces the installation, it constitutes an unfair clause. Below are some important considerations when buying a car: 1. Dealer Responsibilities: Pay attention to details that are easily "overlooked" by dealers, such as delivery time, maintenance, and after-sales services. Ensure that both parties share equal responsibility if the delivery time is breached. Clarify whether free maintenance is calculated by time or mileage, and consumers should pay special attention to these details reflecting the dealer's contractual obligations when signing the agreement. 2. Bundled Insurance: Bundled insurance is illegal. Apart from mandatory insurances like vehicle damage insurance and third-party liability insurance stipulated by the state, car buyers have the right to choose the type of insurance and the insurance company. Verify the dealer's "Business License," registered capital, and ensure the business location matches the registered address to prevent commercial fraud and protect your legal rights.

What are the tips for starting a manual transmission car?

Tips for starting a manual transmission car are as follows: 1. Precautions when starting the vehicle: Manual transmission models sometimes encounter the issue of turning the key but failing to start, which can be quite perplexing. The solution is actually simple. Before starting, first press down the clutch and brake pedals, and confirm that the gear is in neutral. Then, turn the ignition key to start the vehicle. This safety measure is primarily designed to prevent the vehicle from losing control if started while the transmission is not in neutral. 2. Precautions when moving off: The key to a smooth start lies in controlling the clutch. As you slowly release the clutch pedal after pressing it down, the engine and transmission begin to engage, and you will feel the vehicle starting to move forward. Beginners need to get accustomed to the different engagement points of each vehicle. If the clutch control is unstable at this point, the vehicle may stall. In such cases, quickly press the clutch again, shift to neutral, and press the brake before restarting the vehicle.
