New car registration and license plate installation do not need to be done at the same location. New car license plate application process: Go to the local branch office corresponding to your ID card or residence certificate with the following documents: Original and photocopy of the vehicle owner's identity proof; Proof of vehicle origin such as purchase invoice; Vehicle manufacturer's certificate of conformity or import documentation for imported vehicles; Proof of payment of vehicle purchase tax or tax exemption certificate; Compulsory traffic accident liability insurance certificate; Vehicle and vessel tax payment or tax exemption proof; For company vehicles, additional documents required include organization code certificate, official seal, power of attorney, and agent's identity proof. Important notes for new car license plate application: Owners are advised to purchase adequate insurance coverage when applying for plates to prevent unexpected situations. It's recommended to carry temporary license plates when driving before official plates are installed. For faster processing, owners can visit the vehicle management office and use the corresponding barcode recognition system to select plates, which allows for immediate plate collection.

When I first bought my new car, I thought vehicle registration and license plate application would require running around different places. But actually, they handle both at the DMV in one go. That time I went early to queue up—first was the registration process, which involves entering the new car's information into the system, paying purchase tax and insurance fees. The whole thing was pretty quick. Then the staff immediately processed my license plate installation—what they call "plate assignment." The whole process was seamless and didn’t take more than a morning. If you live in a big city like Shanghai, the DMV is even more efficient, handling everything in one stop. In smaller cities, you might need an extra trip, but many places now offer integrated services. Remember to bring your car purchase invoice, ID card, and insurance proof to avoid wasted trips. Overall, new car registration is the process of registering the vehicle, while plate assignment is getting the physical plates—both are basically done at the DMV, making it much more convenient.

Does the BMW X3 28i have a 360-degree camera?

The BMW X3 28i does not come standard with a 360-degree camera, but it can be optionally installed if needed. Introduction to the 360-degree reversing camera: The 360-degree panoramic reversing camera is a system that allows the driver to view a 360-degree panoramic fusion of the car's surroundings on the vehicle display screen, with an ultra-wide viewing angle and seamless stitching of real-time image information (bird's-eye view). It helps the driver understand the blind spots around the vehicle, making parking more intuitive and safer. It is also known as the panoramic parking camera system or the all-around parking camera system. Introduction to models equipped with a 360-degree reversing camera: Many models now come equipped with a 360-degree reversing camera, such as the BYD Yuan, JAC Refine S3, Geely Vision SUV, and Geely Borui.

What does EBD mean in Geely cars?

EBD in Geely cars refers to the Electronic Brakeforce Distribution system, with the full English name being Electric Brakeforce Distribution. Functions of EBD: The function of EBD is to instantly calculate the friction values of the four tires caused by different adhesion levels during vehicle braking, and then adjust the braking device to make high-speed adjustments according to the set program during motion, achieving a match between braking force and friction (traction) to ensure vehicle stability and safety. EBD is usually used in conjunction with ABS: In the event of emergency braking causing wheel lock-up, EBD balances the effective ground grip of each wheel before ABS activates, preventing tailspin and lateral movement, and shortening the vehicle's braking distance. EBD is actually an auxiliary function of ABS, which can improve and enhance the effectiveness of ABS.

What Causes Water Leakage in the Front Passenger Side of a Mercedes-Benz S350?

Mercedes-Benz S350 front passenger side water leakage causes and solutions are as follows: Causes of water leakage in the front passenger side of a Mercedes-Benz S350: Water leakage under the front passenger seat is likely caused by door leakage. If the window regulator has been replaced, it may be due to improper sealing of the door waterproof membrane after the replacement. This happens because the waterproof membrane needs to be peeled off during the regulator replacement process. If the membrane is not properly resealed, heavy rain can cause water to enter the cabin. You can perform the sealing work yourself or replace the waterproof membrane. Solutions for water leakage in the front passenger side of a Mercedes-Benz S350: If you hear noticeable sloshing sounds when opening/closing doors or while driving, this indicates accumulated water inside the door panel. Simply use a thin wire or small screwdriver to unclog the drainage holes - this is something you can easily do yourself.

Where is the dome light fuse located in the Volkswagen Sagitar?

The dome light fuse box of the Volkswagen Sagitar is located on the left side of the center console, inside the cover panel above the driver's footwell. Steps to replace the fuse: Turn off the engine and power equipment; locate the corresponding position, use a small pry bar to open the protective cover, and you can see the component information on the inside of the fuse box; use a test pen to check whether the fuse is blown. If it is damaged, remove it with tweezers and replace it; only fuses with the same current rating (indicated by the same color and printed text) and the same size can be used for replacement; after replacement, check whether the corresponding component is working, otherwise send it to a repair shop for inspection in time. Precautions related to fuses: Installing fuses of different specifications may cause damage to components or even a fire risk; do not replace fuses with a current rating higher than the specified value, otherwise it may cause the component to burn out; do not splice broken fuses; do not use paper clips to replace the original fuse.

What is the method to permanently prevent water from sticking to rearview mirrors?

Methods to permanently prevent water from sticking to rearview mirrors: Installing rain deflectors is a common method to prevent rainwater from adhering to rearview mirrors, with noticeable effects, especially in rainy regions where it proves very practical. They generally last for several years, but their effectiveness significantly diminishes during heavy rain. Additionally, high-speed driving comes with the drawback of increased wind noise due to the higher drag coefficient. Using toothpaste, soap, or dishwashing liquid is a convenient and quick solution, as these tools are commonly found at home. The principle is the same: disrupting the attraction between water molecules to reduce the surface tension of water, allowing water molecules to distribute evenly on the glass surface. Even during rain, water droplets will quickly run off without lingering on the mirror, making the rearview mirror much clearer. However, this method does not last long, typically only maintaining effectiveness for about 2 hours.
