Engine electronic control system malfunctions are caused by internal engine faults or poor combustion leading to excessive exhaust emissions. Below are the reasons that may cause such malfunctions: 1. Engine electrical faults: These faults include damage to certain sensors, such as the air flow meter, throttle idle motor, intake pressure sensor, oxygen sensor, etc. They also include issues with control units or actuators, such as the engine control unit (ECU), ignition control unit, fuel pump, camshaft adjustment solenoid valve, etc. 2. Engine mechanical faults: Such as changes in fuel quality, the use of fuel with excessive additives, or carbon buildup covering the intake tract, throttle, or spark plugs. Additionally, intake tract air leaks below standard values can also cause corresponding faults. When an engine electronic control system malfunction occurs, if only the yellow indicator light is illuminated, you may continue driving but should proceed to a repair facility as soon as possible for inspection and repair. If the red indicator light is illuminated, you should stop the vehicle immediately and contact a repair facility for assistance.

How many times can a driver's license be deducted 12 points in a lifetime?

A driver's license can be deducted a maximum of two 12-point penalties within one scoring cycle. If a driver exceeds two 12-point penalties or accumulates more than 24 points within one scoring cycle, the vehicle management office must also conduct a road driving skills test within ten days after the driver passes the examination on road traffic safety laws, regulations, and related knowledge. Here is additional information: Introduction: Motor vehicle drivers must report to the traffic management department of the public security authority at the place where the driver's license was issued or where the violation occurred within fifteen days to attend a seven-day study session on road traffic safety laws, regulations, and related knowledge. After completing the study session, the vehicle management office must conduct an examination on road traffic safety laws, regulations, and related knowledge within twenty days. If the driver passes the examination, the points will be cleared, and the driver's license will be returned. Other: The permission to drive a vehicle is granted through the issuance of a driver's license. This indicates that obtaining a driver's license is a formalized process that must be issued by a specialized authority.

What is the process for deducting points from a driver's license?

Bring the driver's license, ID card, and vehicle registration certificate. The driver must personally go to the traffic police team at the location of the violation or the vehicle registration location to handle the matter and pay the fine. After paying the fine, the points will be deducted. If 12 points are accumulated in one cycle, the driver loses their driving qualification. Typically, they must undergo no less than 7 days of traffic safety education and pass the exam to regain their license.

Should the Lavida use 92 or 95 octane gasoline?

The naturally aspirated engine of the Volkswagen Lavida can use 92 octane gasoline, while the turbocharged engine is recommended to use 95 octane gasoline. Here is some additional information: 1. Fuel grades typically include 90, 92, 93, 95, etc. The higher the number, the better the anti-knock performance. This is because the anti-knock substance is isooctane, and higher octane ratings indicate a higher content of isooctane in the gasoline, which naturally provides stronger anti-knock properties. You can determine the required fuel grade by checking the engine's compression ratio. The higher the compression ratio, the higher the required fuel grade. 2. The fuel grade refers to the proportion of octane components, which determines the strength of anti-knock performance, and has no relation to the purity of the fuel. In other words, there is theoretically no difference in quality between 93 octane and 97 octane gasoline. Using fuel with a lower octane rating than the engine's requirement can cause knocking, while using fuel with a higher octane rating than necessary is an economic waste.
