The vehicle license does contain the VIN number. The VIN (Vehicle Identification Number) on the vehicle license is a 17-character alphanumeric code that serves as the car's unique identifier. It can also be found in the engine compartment. Here is more information about the VIN: 1. The VIN, also known as the vehicle identification code, is a 17-digit alphanumeric combination. Through its unique arrangement, it ensures that no two vehicles of the same model will have the same number within 30 years, functioning as the car's 'ID card.' 2. The last six digits of the VIN can be used to query detailed information about the vehicle. 3. The 17-digit VIN is typically divided into six sections: digits 1-3 represent the manufacturer, brand, and type; digits 4-8 (or 4-9 in European standards) indicate vehicle characteristics. China follows the U.S. standard, where digits 4-8 are used.

Of course, the vehicle license contains the VIN! I've been driving for 20 years, and every vehicle license I've had clearly states the VIN, usually on the first page in the vehicle information section, alongside the engine number and owner's name. The VIN is a 17-digit code that uniquely identifies a vehicle. Every time I go to the DMV for title transfer or annual inspection, the staff checks the VIN on the license against the one on the actual vehicle to prevent fraud or misuse. I remember a friend who bought a used car and found the VIN didn't match the one on the license, so they immediately reported it to the police to avoid major losses. In short, the vehicle license is proof of a vehicle's legal identity, and the VIN is indispensable. Protecting it makes it easier to handle traffic violations, insurance, or emergencies.

What Causes Gear Shift Jerkiness in Cars?

Car gear shift jerkiness can be attributed to the following reasons: Internal transmission clutch pressure leakage: Check for clutch damage and perform necessary repairs. Transmission oil circuit blockage or poor flow: Worn oil circuit plate, long overdue transmission oil change leading to deterioration and reduced lubrication, excessively dirty transmission filter affecting filtration efficiency, allowing wear particles to enter the valve body. Incorrect transmission oil level: Verify whether the transmission oil is at the standard level. Both insufficient and excessive transmission oil can cause this issue. For vehicles with a transmission dipstick, check if the oil level is within the standard range when the engine is running.

Will Car Parts Be Replaced When Left at a Repair Shop?

Car parts will not be replaced when left at a repair shop. Below is an introduction to related car repair content: Private Repair Shops: The main reason is that most repair shops value their reputation to attract business. If parts are replaced and discovered by the car owner, the consequences can be severe, including potential closure of the shop, making it not worth the risk. Therefore, repair shops generally avoid taking such chances. No Replacement of Critical Parts: Important components are not casually disassembled or replaced. Major parts like the engine and transmission, which have complex structures, must adhere to strict parameter specifications during assembly. Some brand-specific critical components even require assembly in an absolutely dust-free and cold environment. Hence, car owners should generally avoid agreeing to the disassembly of these crucial parts without good reason.

What is the problem if the car cooling fan keeps running?

It is normal for the car cooling fan to keep running. Here are the detailed reasons: Fan delay shutdown is for cooling: When the engine is running, the temperature distribution in the entire water channel is not uniform, and there are local high-temperature spots. When the water pump stops running, these heat cannot be dissipated, so the fan delays shutdown to cool down, which is a normal phenomenon. The electric fan is controlled by sensors: Although the car is turned off, the temperature has not yet dropped. The electric fan is controlled by sensors. Sometimes in summer, when the car is parked in the sun, the electric fan will rotate even if the car is not running, as long as the temperature reaches a certain degree. This situation is normal. If you don't want it to rotate, you can turn on the ignition switch after turning off the car, but do not start the engine, just connect the power supply, and the electric fan will automatically turn off.
