What Causes a Sudden Surge in the Fuel Consumption Gauge of the New Sylphy?

New Sylphy fuel gauge showing a sudden increase in fuel consumption could be due to issues with the spark plugs or excessive carbon buildup in the engine. Details are as follows: Spark Plugs: The spark plug is a crucial component of the gasoline engine's ignition system. It introduces high voltage into the combustion chamber, causing a spark to jump across the electrode gap, thereby igniting the combustible mixture in the cylinder. It mainly consists of a terminal nut, insulator, terminal stud, center electrode, side electrode, and shell. Engine Carbon Buildup: During engine operation, unsaturated olefins and gums in the fuel produce a coking-like substance under high temperatures.

Why does the door make noise when opening and closing?

The reasons for abnormal noises from car doors include: loose interior panels or audio systems, rusted door hinges, and aged door sealing strips. For the issue of loose interior panels or audio systems, you can check by shaking them manually or pressing on the noisy area while driving. If the noise disappears, simply re-secure the affected part. Rusted door hinges will produce noise when the door is opened or closed. The solution is to clean the hinges and apply some grease. If the door sealing strips have aged due to prolonged lack of maintenance, it can be troublesome. The best method is to purchase a bottle of silicone grease for self-maintenance. Apply the silicone grease to the sealing strip, let it absorb for an hour, and then wipe it off.

Can I Take the Driver's License Test on Weekends?

Online appointment for motor vehicle driver's license tests can be scheduled on weekends, but there are no test arrangements on weekends. Normally, the staff at the driving test centers responsible for the driver's license subject tests have weekends off, and there are no staff working at the test sites, so tests cannot be conducted. The driving test centers are managed by the Vehicle Management Office and operate under a five-day workweek system as public institutions, with weekends and statutory holidays off. The full name of the driver's license is the motor vehicle driver's license, also known as the "driver's license," which is the certificate required by law for motor vehicle drivers. The process and content of the driver's license test: First, register, then undergo a physical examination, and then prepare for the theoretical test of Subject 1, which requires a passing score of 90. After passing, proceed to Subject 2, which includes reversing into a parking space, stopping and starting on a slope, turning at right angles, driving on curves, and parallel parking. After Subject 2 comes Subject 3, which includes preparation before driving, simulated light tests, starting, driving straight, shifting gears, changing lanes, pulling over, driving straight through intersections, turning left at intersections, turning right at intersections, passing pedestrian crossings, passing school zones, passing bus stops, meeting vehicles, overtaking, making U-turns, and driving at night. After passing Subject 3, take Subject 4, which is also a theoretical test requiring a passing score of 90. Upon passing all tests, you can receive your driver's license.

What does a yellow dashed line on the road indicate?

A yellow dashed line at the center of the road is a marking used to separate opposing traffic flows, typically painted along the road's midline. The yellow dashed line indicates that crossing is permitted, allowing drivers to overtake or make turns when it is safe to do so. The differences between yellow and white lines are as follows: Yellow lines: Yellow lines are used to separate lanes of traffic moving in opposite directions, usually painted down the middle of the road like a divider, splitting the road into two directions: Whether it's a single or double yellow line, if it's solid, crossing is strictly prohibited. Drivers should not cross the line unless absolutely necessary. Whether it's a single or double yellow line, if it's dashed, overtaking or making U-turns is allowed when safe. Single yellow lines are generally used on roads with up to four lanes (including bicycle lanes), while double yellow lines are used on wider roads. White lines: White lines are used to separate different lanes of traffic moving in the same direction. Dashed white lines indicate that lane changes are permitted, while solid white lines mean lane changes are not allowed and drivers should not switch lanes arbitrarily.
