Wheel alignment is not required after tire repair, but wheel balancing is necessary. The functions of wheel balancing for car tires are: 1. Enhancing driving comfort; 2. Extending tire service life; 3. Ensuring straight-line stability of the vehicle; 4. Reducing wear on chassis suspension components. The consequences of improper wheel balancing include: 1. Regular bouncing of tires during driving, causing steering wheel vibration; 2. Vehicle resonance occurring within certain speed ranges; 3. Uneven tire wear, affecting tire lifespan and driving safety; 4. Potential damage to suspension and bearings.

Why has the fuel consumption suddenly increased?

Here are the reasons for increased fuel consumption: 1. Spark plugs: After prolonged use, the tips of spark plugs can accumulate carbon deposits or become worn, leading to inefficient ignition. Severe cases may cause incomplete combustion of gasoline and reduced power output. To compensate for the lack of power, the vehicle's computer will automatically increase fuel injection, which is a significant reason for increased fuel consumption. If this is the cause, timely replacement of spark plugs is necessary. 2. Oxygen sensor: Another reason for increased fuel consumption could be severe contamination of the vehicle's oxygen sensor. In such cases, the oxygen sensor cannot accurately measure the intake air volume. During operation, this leads to insufficient air in the cylinders, resulting in lower fuel efficiency and consequently higher fuel consumption.

When does the driving license score refresh?

Driving license scores are refreshed every 12 months from the date of issuance. The deducted points will automatically reset at the end of each cycle. Below are relevant details: 1. Score reset rules: If the total penalty points accumulated within one scoring cycle are less than 12, the system will automatically reset the points (after fines are paid) at the start of the next cycle. 2. Important notes: For licenses that accumulate 12 or more points, the holder must visit the local vehicle management office (either at the license issuance location or violation location) to study and pass the Subject 1 test (or Subject 3 test if 12 points are accumulated twice consecutively within one cycle) before the points can be reset.
