Hazards of oil leakage: Insufficient oil can easily cause bearing seizure, cylinder scoring, and in severe cases, may lead to crankshaft breakage and engine block damage. Excessive oil will affect the car's power and is also prone to oil blow-by and oil burning. Causes of engine oil leakage in cars: 1. Poor product (accessory) quality, material, or workmanship. 2. Improper assembly, unclean mating surfaces, damaged or displaced gaskets, or failure to follow installation procedures. 3. Uneven tightening torque of fastening nuts, stripped threads, or loose connections leading to operational failure. 4. Wear beyond limits, aging, deterioration, or deformation failure of sealing materials after long-term use.

Which is faster at starting, automatic or manual transmission?

Manual transmission has a faster starting speed. Here are the reasons why manual transmission has a higher starting speed than automatic transmission: 1. The power transmission efficiency of manual transmission cars can reach 85%, and some can even exceed 90%, while automatic transmissions vary depending on the type. In good cases, the power transmission efficiency can reach 80%, but CVT transmissions are generally below 70%. Dual-clutch transmissions, being closer to manual transmissions, have higher power transmission efficiency, but still not as high as manual transmissions. 2. With automatic transmissions, acceleration is indeed just a matter of stepping on the gas pedal, but this action is controlled by the car's computer. Manual transmissions, on the other hand, are not restricted in this way, making it easy to surpass automatic transmissions at the start.

How to Write China 6?

The correct way to write China 6 is China VI, using Roman numerals. The China 6 emission standard is divided into two phases: China 6a and China 6b. China 6a will be officially implemented in 2020, and China 6b will be officially implemented in 2023. The following is an introduction to the China 6 emission standard: 1. The 'National Sixth Stage Emission Standards for Motor Vehicle Pollutants' includes two parts: 'Limits and Measurement Methods for Emissions from Light-duty Vehicles (China VI)' and 'Limits and Measurement Methods for Emissions from Heavy-duty Diesel Vehicles (China VI)'. 2. China 6 is formulated to implement the 'Environmental Protection Law of the People's Republic of China' and the 'Air Pollution Prevention and Control Law of the People's Republic of China', to prevent pollution of the environment by exhaust emissions from compression-ignition and gas-fueled spark-ignition engine vehicles, to protect the ecological environment, and to safeguard human health.

How Long Does It Take to Charge a Car Battery Before Starting the Engine?

A short charging period is sufficient to start the engine, and driving the car can also slowly recharge the battery. If the car won't be used temporarily, it's recommended to charge it for five to six hours to fully replenish the battery. Below are some car battery maintenance methods: 1. Use a damp cloth to clean the exterior of the battery, removing dust, grease, white powder, and other contaminants from the panel and terminals (positive and negative poles) that could cause leakage. 2. Open the battery water cap to check if the water level is within the normal range. Most batteries have upper and lower limit markers on the side. If the water level is below the lower marker, distilled or tap water must be added. 3. Verify if the battery is charging properly. After starting the engine, measure the voltage across the battery terminals—it should exceed 13V to be considered normal. If the charging voltage is too low, a professional should inspect the charging system.

Original and photocopy of the vehicle qualification certificate (import certificate for imported vehicles). 2. Original and photocopy of the third copy of the compulsory traffic insurance. 3. Original and photocopy of the car owner's identity proof. 4. If applying on behalf of someone else, the original and photocopy of the agent's ID card are required.

What is the method of car polishing?

Here are the methods for car polishing: 1. Clean the entire car paint surface, using specialized car cleaning foam to wash the entire vehicle until the surface is clean; 2. Use coarse wax or fine wax with a polishing machine to grind and remove imperfections on the car paint surface; 3. After polishing, thoroughly clean all the wax off the car paint; 4. After washing the car, wait for the body to dry, then carefully apply car wax to the entire body. Once the wax is fully absorbed, wipe the body carefully. Additional notes: When polishing the car, pay attention to the pressure applied to different polishing areas to avoid grinding through the paint. Use a large towel to cover the front windshield, otherwise the wax may stick to the wipers and be difficult to clean during polishing.

Where are the mandatory turn signal locations in Subject 2 of the driving test?

There are three instances in Subject 2 where turn signals must be used: exiting parallel parking (left turn signal), making a 90-degree turn (left turn signal), and stopping at an uphill fixed point (right turn signal). Penalties for incorrect turn signal usage are as follows: Failure to use or incorrect use of turn signals before starting, turning, changing lanes, overtaking, or parking results in a 10-point deduction. Using turn signals for less than 3 seconds before starting, turning, changing lanes, overtaking, or parking results in a 10-point deduction. Subject 2 has a maximum score of 100 points, with evaluation criteria including disqualification, 20-point deductions, 10-point deductions, and 5-point deductions. Passing standards are as follows: ① For large passenger vehicles, tractors, city buses, medium-sized passenger vehicles, and large trucks, a score of 90 or above is required; ② For other vehicle types, a score of 80 or above is required. The C1 and C2 (small vehicle) tests include five mandatory items: reverse parking, parallel parking, uphill fixed-point stopping and starting (canceled for C2), 90-degree turns, and curve driving (commonly known as S-curves). Some regions also include a sixth item: highway toll card collection. The A1, A2, A3, B1, and B2 (large vehicle) tests include: pole test, uphill fixed-point stopping and starting, parallel parking, single-plank bridge crossing, curve driving, 90-degree turns, limited-width gate crossing, continuous obstacle crossing, bumpy road driving, narrow road U-turns, as well as simulated highway driving, continuous sharp mountain curves, tunnels, rain (fog) conditions, slippery roads, and emergency handling.
