Where is the VIN located?

VIN can be found at the lower left corner of the front windshield, on the driver's side door hinge pillar, door lock pillar, or door edge. Some vehicles may also have it located in the engine compartment. The exact position varies depending on the car model. The VIN (Vehicle Identification Number) is a unique code assigned by the manufacturer to identify individual vehicles. Composed of 17 letters and digits, it's also known as the 17-digit identification code, chassis number, or 17-digit number. The combination of these characters ensures no duplication within the same vehicle model for 30 years, making it a unique identifier - essentially a car's ID card.

What is a VIN? Where can I find it?

The VIN generally refers to the Vehicle Identification Number, abbreviated as VIN, which consists of 17 alphanumeric characters. It serves as the vehicle identification code for automotive products upon leaving the factory, containing crucial information such as the manufacturer, year of production, model, body type and code, engine code, and assembly location. The VIN is typically located at the lower left corner of the front windshield, but it can also be found in the engine compartment or fixed on the inner side of the door near the driver's seat. Each of the 17 digits in the VIN represents specific information: 1. The first digit indicates the country or region where the vehicle was manufactured; 2. The second to third digits represent the manufacturer and vehicle type; 3. The fourth to eighth digits provide details about the vehicle's category, series, body, and engine type; 4. The ninth digit is the check digit for the vehicle; 5. The tenth digit denotes the production year of the vehicle; 6. The eleventh digit is the code for the assembly plant; 7. The twelfth to seventeenth digits represent the vehicle's production serial number.

How to Turn on the High Beam of a Car?

The method to turn on the high beam of a car is: 1. Locate the high beam switch on the lever on the left side of the steering wheel or on the light knob on the left side of the steering wheel; 2. Turn on the low beam, then press the lever downward (toward the engine direction), at which point the dashboard will display an indicator, and the high beam will be activated. The light emitted from the high beam's focal point is projected parallel, with a more concentrated and brighter beam, capable of illuminating distant and high objects. The light from the low beam is emitted in a divergent state beyond its focal point (between 1 to 2 times the focal distance), allowing it to illuminate a larger area of nearby objects. The difference between the high beam and low beam is: the high beam has a higher angle and longer distance; the low beam has a lower angle and shorter distance.

What causes the tire pressure warning light to come on?

Tire pressure warning light comes on for the following reasons: 1. Punctured tire; 2. Excessive tire pressure; 3. Driving with low tire pressure for too long; 4. Not inflating tires for a long time, causing tire pressure to drop. Tire pressure refers to the air pressure inside the tire, which is the blood pressure of a car. The level of tire pressure plays a crucial role in a car's performance and power. Tire pressure is the lifeline of tires - both too high and too low will shorten the tire's service life. Low tire pressure increases tire body deformation, easily causing cracks on the sidewalls while generating flexing motion that leads to excessive heat, accelerating rubber aging, fatigue of the cord ply, and cord breakage. It also increases the tire's contact area, accelerating shoulder wear. Excessive tire pressure causes excessive stretching deformation of tire cords, reducing the tire body's elasticity and increasing the load on the car during driving. If impacted, it may cause internal cracks and blowouts, while also accelerating tread wear and reducing puncture resistance.

What are the precautions for picking up a car?

Precautions for picking up a car include: 1. Park the vehicle in an outdoor area with sufficient light to inspect the body paint, ensuring there are no scratches or wear, the paint is even, and it appears translucent under sunlight reflection; 2. Open the car door—the vehicle identification plate is located near the driver's side door or B-pillar—check the relevant information on the plate; 3. Open the engine compartment to inspect if it is clean, free of dirt or dust, and check if the engine oil and other fluids are at adequate levels; 4. Manually test whether the doors open and close smoothly, the windows roll up and down properly, there is no strong odor inside the car, the air conditioning cools effectively, the wipers function correctly, and the lights turn on normally; 5. Start the engine to feel if it idles smoothly, if there is noticeable noise inside the car, or if the steering wheel vibrates significantly; 6. Check if all relevant vehicle documents are complete, such as the purchase invoice, certificate of conformity, vehicle type approval certificate, vehicle registration certificate, warranty certificate, owner's manual, and new car delivery checklist.
