Vehicle inspection time is based on the date on the driving license, which refers to the registration date. Introduction: Annual inspection refers to the annual or biennial safety inspection of vehicles, including a comprehensive check of components such as horns, brakes, axle weight, chassis, ignition system, lighting system, exhaust system, and license plate installation. Vehicle annual inspection is a mandatory test for all vehicles that have obtained official license plates and driving licenses, equivalent to an annual physical examination of the vehicle according to the safety technical conditions for motor vehicle operation. Vehicle annual inspections can promptly eliminate potential safety hazards, encourage enhanced vehicle maintenance, and reduce the occurrence of traffic accidents. Time: Vehicle annual inspection can be conducted within the last 3 months before the expiration of the vehicle inspection period.

I think the vehicle inspection timing is mainly calculated based to the initial registration date on the vehicle license. That date serves as the starting point, from which all inspection cycles are counted. For example, my first car's registration certificate shows May 10, 2018 as the registration date, so I must conduct the inspection either two or six years later, depending on the vehicle type and age. The new regulations are more user-friendly now - new energy vehicles or regular new cars don't require on-site inspections for the first six years, but you still need to prepare materials in advance to avoid penalties for overdue inspections. Once I carelessly exceeded the deadline by a week, which resulted in point deductions and delayed my long-distance travel plans. I recommend checking the date one month in advance using a mobile app or the traffic bureau website, while also inspecting tire wear and lights to avoid repeated trips and unnecessary expenses.

Is the Transmission of the New BMW 3 Series Made by ZF?

BMW new 3 series transmission is ZF. Introduction to ZF Transmission: The transmission brand of the BMW 3 Series is ZF. In normal driving mode, it actively shifts up to keep the RPM below 2000, with very smooth shifting actions. When switched to sport mode, the transmission responds extremely quickly, with all upshifts and downshifts synchronized with the operation. The ZF transmission is more suitable for use in extreme environments with high torque output, which is why ZF transmissions are often installed in luxury cars. Function of the Transmission: To change the transmission ratio, expanding the range of torque and speed variation of the driving wheels. It allows the car to reverse while the engine's rotation direction remains unchanged. By using neutral gear, it interrupts power transmission, enabling the engine to start, shift gears, and facilitating gear changes or power output. The transmission consists of a gear transmission mechanism and a control mechanism, and a power take-off can be added when necessary.

What are the reasons for the loud idle sound in the Equinox?

The reasons for the loud idle sound in the Equinox may include piston slap, timing gear wear, and piston pin guide noise. Piston Slap: Piston slap is a common source of abnormal noise. Due to poor lubrication conditions, excessive wear occurs between the piston and cylinder wall, causing the clearance fit tolerance between them to exceed the normal range. When the engine is running, the piston skirt impacts the cylinder wall, producing a clear "clanging" sound, which is more noticeable during idle or low-speed operation. Timing Gear Wear: After prolonged use, along with improper gear clearance adjustment and poor lubrication conditions, gears can experience excessive wear. In severe cases, the gear teeth may even become worn down, leading to loose meshing between gears. This results in a "whirring" sound when the machine is running. Piston Pin Guide Noise: Due to excessive wear of components, the clearance between the piston pin and the connecting rod bushing becomes too large. Additionally, the fit between the connecting rod bushing and the connecting rod small-end bearing becomes loose, and the clearance between the piston pin and the piston pin bore becomes excessive. This causes the piston to swing during movement, colliding with the cylinder wall and producing abnormal noise.
