Automobile certificate of conformity should be submitted to the vehicle management office. The original automobile certificate of conformity is kept by the vehicle management office as the original document of the vehicle when the vehicle is licensed. The following is a specific introduction about the automobile certificate of conformity: 1. Meaning: The automobile certificate of conformity refers to the certificate of conformity, conformity label or conformity stamp attached to the product or product packaging by the manufacturer to indicate that the product leaving the factory has passed the quality inspection. This is the manufacturer's express guarantee of the quality of its products, and it is also a product labeling obligation that the manufacturer is legally required to undertake. 2. Main function: Each vehicle has one and only one certificate of conformity. National laws stipulate that the certificate of conformity must be provided for vehicle licensing, and vehicles without a certificate of conformity cannot be licensed.

I remember when I bought my first car, the dealer handed me the vehicle conformity certificate, saying it was related to the car's identity. On the day of registration, I took all the documents to the DMV, and the staff immediately said the conformity certificate needed to be submitted for archiving before they could issue the vehicle license. At first, I was a bit confused, thinking I had to keep it myself all along, but they explained it was a legal requirement to prove the vehicle met factory compliance standards, and afterward, it would be kept by the DMV as part of the records. After submitting it, I received the vehicle license, and for daily driving, I never needed the certificate—just my driver's license and vehicle license. When buying a car, it's best to have the dealer confirm the process goes smoothly to avoid trouble on the road. New drivers should pay extra attention to details for peace of mind, unlike me who worried unnecessarily for so long.

Decades of driving experience have taught me that the vehicle certificate of conformity must be submitted to the DMV—it's a mandatory requirement under China's motor vehicle registration regulations. Every new car must use it for initial registration, after which the DMV archives it to verify the vehicle's authenticity before issuing us a license plate and registration certificate as long-term proof of identity. Driving without submitting it is a violation punishable by fines or vehicle impoundment. Seasoned car owners know the certificate becomes obsolete after purchase, only needing one-time submission during registration; thereafter, keeping the registration certificate safe suffices. Asking dealers more about document handover details during purchase can save hassle.

Excited to pick up my new car, the dealer reminded me to bring the vehicle qualification certificate for license plate registration. After an on-site inspection, the DMV said they must retain it as part of the registration records, then quickly processed and gave me the vehicle license. As a young first-timer, I initially wondered why I couldn't keep it myself, but learned this certificate is only used for initial vehicle qualification verification and becomes obsolete afterward. The process was simple yet interesting - surrendering it completely freed my hands, allowing me to drive freely with just the vehicle license. When purchasing a car, confirming such procedures in advance helps avoid minor hiccups.

What Causes the Noise When Braking Just After Starting the Car?

When you slowly release the brake pedal, the engine already has enough power to drive the car forward, but your brakes haven't fully disengaged yet. As a result, the moving wheels are being held back by the braking system, which naturally produces unusual noises—this is a normal phenomenon. Here's some relevant information: In manual transmission cars, when you lift the brake, the transmission doesn't output power, and the vehicle starts only after the brake is fully released. However, in automatic transmission cars, as soon as you engage the gear, the transmission already provides the force for the tires to rotate forward; it's just that the brakes are being pressed, preventing the vehicle from moving. When starting an automatic transmission car, the brake is usually released slowly. If you release the brake quickly, you won't hear this noise.

How much fuel does a 2.0T engine consume when idling for one hour?

On average, it may consume around 1.6 liters. The higher the engine displacement, the more fuel is consumed per hour during idling. Here is some information about idling: 1. Definition: Idling refers to the operation of the engine without any load, where it only needs to overcome the internal friction resistance of its own components and does not output power externally. The minimum speed required to maintain stable engine operation is called idle speed, which is one of the five basic operating conditions of an engine. When adjusting the idle speed, the speed should not fluctuate abruptly, as this can cause premature wear to the engine. 2. Impact: Fuel consumption. The engine can accumulate carbon deposits. Prolonged idling can lead to excessive carbon buildup in the engine, resulting in insufficient power during driving and, in severe cases, black smoke from the exhaust pipe.
