Small marks on the windshield caused by stones do not require repair. The methods for repairing scratches on the windshield are as follows: Grinding and Polishing Repair: Grinding and polishing can gradually refine imperfections such as scratches, abrasions, burns, and corrosion on the glass surface, achieving a repair effect. First, clean and wipe the area around the scratch, then use tape to enclose the scratch to define the repair area and avoid damaging other parts during grinding. Use a grinding disc to remove the scratch, and finally polish the glass with polishing paste. For small and shallow scratches, direct polishing can be performed without grinding. Using Toothpaste for Repair: Toothpaste contains fine abrasive particles, which can also achieve a grinding effect. Apply toothpaste to the scratch and gently rub it with a soft, clean towel dampened with water.

Do Used Cars Still Require Purchase Tax?

Purchase tax is only paid once for a vehicle, typically at the time of purchasing a new car. In other words, used cars do not require payment of purchase tax. However, if the purchase tax was not paid when the car was initially bought as new, the new owner will need to pay the outstanding purchase tax after the used car transaction. Considerations when buying a used car: 1. Costs involved in purchasing a used car: The main expenses for a used car transaction are the vehicle price, transfer fee, and license plate fee. 2. Things to check when buying a used car: (1) Walk around the car to check if all four tires are properly inflated. (2) Observe whether the tire brands are consistent. (3) Inspect the front wheels. (4) Check the wheel bearings of the used car. (5) After completing the used car transaction, ensure the buyer promptly provides all necessary documents.

Will the car consume fuel if left idling for an hour without turning off the engine?

Yes, the car will consume fuel if left idling for an hour without turning off the engine. When waiting at an intersection to pass, the parking time should be judged based on the traffic signal timer. If the parking time exceeds 1 minute, the engine should be turned off. Generally, the fuel consumed by idling a small car is more than the fuel consumed by restarting it. Here are some methods to save fuel for vehicles: 1. Drive at a constant speed: Control the speed of the vehicle while driving and avoid sudden braking; 2. Do not open windows when driving at high speeds: Opening windows at high speeds will increase fuel consumption; 3. Regularly check tire pressure to ensure correct tire pressure: Insufficient or excessive air pressure will increase fuel consumption, so tire pressure should be checked regularly; 4. Pay attention to transmission maintenance: Be sure to replace the transmission oil that matches the vehicle. Transmission oil not only lubricates but also transmits torque, so it should be replaced regularly.

Do modern cars still require a break-in period?

Modern cars still require a break-in period. Here is more information about the car break-in period: 1. Mileage for the break-in period: Generally, it is 1000 to 3000 kilometers. During this period, the owner should reasonably control the speed and avoid sudden braking or acceleration. 2. Preheating before starting: This ensures proper lubrication of the engine and prevents unnecessary faults during the break-in period, which could affect normal usage. 3. Speed control: The engine break-in period requires approximately 1000 kilometers. For the first 500 kilometers, it is recommended to drive at speeds between 60 to 70 km/h, keeping the RPM below 2200. Between 500 to 1000 kilometers, the speed can be increased to 90 to 100 km/h, with the RPM below 2500, to facilitate the break-in process.
