The most important aspects of four-wheel maintenance are dynamic balancing, checking for wear, and cross-rotation of the tires. It helps prevent the vehicle from pulling to one side and excessive wear on one side of the tires, significantly improving driving stability and safety, as well as extending the lifespan of the tires. Four-Wheel Alignment: Four-wheel alignment refers to the preset alignment angles of the vehicle's suspension system as designed by the manufacturer to ensure driving safety. Maintaining correct four-wheel alignment angles ensures the vehicle's straight-line stability, handling, and the recovery of the steering system. It prevents improper bearing stress and loss of precision, ensures tight contact between the tires and the road, reduces uneven tire wear, and enhances stability during turns. Precautions: When performing four-wheel alignment with an instrument, ensure the repair shop's alignment equipment is qualified. After alignment, check the printed data to confirm whether the front wheels' camber angle falls within the standard range.

Can You Still Drive After Getting 12 Demerit Points on Your License?

If a vehicle accumulates 12 demerit points without being addressed, it cannot be driven on the road. Below is relevant information about motor vehicles receiving 12 demerit points: 1. Class A and B Driver's Licenses: If a Class A or B driver's license accumulates 12 demerit points within one scoring cycle, the highest vehicle class qualification will be revoked, and the driver must apply for a downgraded license within 30 days. 2. Class C Driver's License: If a Class C driver's license accumulates 12 demerit points, the license will be temporarily suspended by the public security traffic management department. The driver must report to the issuing authority of the motor vehicle driver's license or the public security traffic management department within 15 days to attend a 7-day study session on road traffic safety laws, regulations, and related knowledge. After completing the study, the driver must pass an examination arranged by the traffic management department to clear the demerit points and have the motor vehicle driver's license returned. 3. Probationary Period: If 12 demerit points are accumulated during the probationary period, the highest permitted vehicle class for Class A and B licenses will be revoked, while the probationary driving qualification for Class C licenses will be canceled.

Can I Take the Subject 4 Test with a Temporary ID?

Temporary ID can be used to take the Subject 4 test, as it holds the same legal validity as a regular ID. Simply visit any local police station, submit your household registration booklet, a recent one-inch black-and-white photo without a hat, and pay a processing fee of 10 RMB to obtain a temporary ID on the same day. The Subject 4 test consists of 50 questions, primarily in the form of case studies, images, and animations. The total score is 100, with a passing score of 90. Subject 4, also known as the theoretical driving test or driver's theory exam, is part of the motor vehicle driver's license assessment. After the implementation of the Ministry of Public Security's Order No. 123, the Subject 3 test was divided into two parts: the road test and an additional safety and civics knowledge test, commonly referred to as "Subject 4," which evaluates "driving ethics." Since this test is conducted after Subject 3, it is colloquially called the Subject 4 test, though it is not officially recognized as such. Failing Subject 4 does not require retaking previously passed tests (Subjects 1, 2, and 3). You can schedule a retest on your own without additional fees. There are no scheduling restrictions, but the driving skills test permit is valid for three years. If the applicant fails to complete all tests within this period, the results of any passed subjects will be voided.

Does a 7-speed dry dual-clutch transmission require gear oil replacement?

7-speed dry dual-clutch transmissions do require gear oil replacement. Gear oil, also known as transmission lubricating oil, is primarily composed of antioxidants, antifoaming agents, and rust inhibitors. It helps prevent gear surface wear and sintering, significantly improving power transmission efficiency. Precautions for using gear oil: 1. Timely replenishment and replacement; 2. Prompt gear oil changes; 3. Avoid contamination of the vehicle's generator, starter motor carbon brushes, or rotor with lubricating oil or grease, as this may cause operational issues or failure. Dry dual-clutch transmissions transmit torque through friction plates on the clutch driven disc, eliminating the need for related hydraulic systems. Dry clutches themselves are highly efficient in torque transmission.
