When purchasing an imported car, the following points should be noted: 1. Documentation: The Proof of Imported Goods, which includes the car's name, customs declaration company, chassis number, engine number, production date, etc. 2. Inspection Sheet: The accompanying inspection sheet for imported motor vehicles, stamped by the national CIQ inspection and quarantine bureau. 3. Certification: The Compulsory Product Certification Vehicle Conformity Certificate, with the conformity certificate on the front and the environmental protection list on the back. 4. Invoice: It states the vehicle's invoiced price and taxpayer information. The relevant documents are as follows: 1. Procedures for obtaining a temporary license plate for an imported car: The owner or agent must present their identity proof, the vehicle's origin proof, the whole vehicle factory qualification certificate for domestically produced motor vehicles or the import certificate for imported motor vehicles, the vehicle identification code, and the engine number rubbing mold procedures to the vehicle management office for processing. 2. Introduction: When applying, the vehicle's travel start and end points and the duration of temporary license plate use should be specified. After review by the management personnel and passing the vehicle safety technical performance inspection, a temporary license plate will be issued, with the validity period and start and end points signed. New cars using temporary license plates must not exceed 15 days, and the owner should promptly apply to the vehicle management authority for a formal license plate.

How to Remove Bug Droppings from a Car?

Methods to remove bug droppings from a car: 1. Essential Balm: Apply essential balm to the bug dropping stains, wait for about two minutes, then wipe off with a wet wipe. 2. Tar Remover: Spray tar remover onto the bug dropping stains, wait for about a minute, then wipe off with a wet wipe. 3. Alcohol: Pour alcohol onto a wet wipe, place it on the bug dropping stains, wait for a minute, then wipe off. Below are the benefits of car waxing: 1. Protects the vehicle's paint: Effectively safeguards the vehicle's paint, providing a better gloss. Waxed car paint is less likely to attract dust and rainwater. When waxing, it's important to use a car wax that matches your vehicle's color for optimal results.

Are Seat Belt Limiters Safe?

Seat belt limiters have a relatively low safety factor. Here are specific details about safety limiters: 1. Overview: A safety limiter, also known as an overload limiter, is a safety device designed to protect machinery and its users, commonly found in automobiles and cranes. 2. Principle: During the door opening and closing process, the slider inside the limiter cover plate moves back and forth on the main arm. Because the thickness of the main arm varies along the direction of motion, the displacement distance of the slider also varies, resulting in different forces applied to the rubber block. This creates varying door opening and closing forces, thereby achieving the limiting effect. 3. Development Trend: With the growth of the global economy, automobiles will become the primary means of transportation for humans. Due to increasing urban populations, the distance between parking spaces and vehicles will become smaller in the future. To avoid collisions with other vehicles when getting in and out, the requirements for the limiting function of limiters will become higher. Two-stage limiters can no longer meet user demands and will be replaced by three-stage limiters.

What are the weight requirements for deflection testing vehicles?

Deflection value refers to the magnitude of deformation in the roadbed/pavement before and after the application of load, measured in units of 1/100 millimeters. The calculated deflection value represents the weighted average of residual deformation in a specific road section, measured at 20-meter intervals, using vehicles with a specified axle load (typically rear-axle vehicles of 6 or 10 tons) before and after applying load to the roadbed/pavement. Heavier vehicles generally exhibit better high-speed stability. Factors affecting high-speed stability include: 1. Vehicle tires: Tires are the only components in contact with the ground. Generally, wider and flatter tires improve high-speed stability. 2. Vehicle shape: Aerodynamic designs enhance stability at high speeds. 3. Drive configuration: Most vehicles are front-wheel drive, rear-wheel drive, or four-wheel drive, with four-wheel drive offering superior stability compared to two-wheel drive. 4. Suspension system: Vehicles with independent suspension (such as MacPherson or multi-link independent suspension) are generally more stable than those with non-independent suspension systems.

What is the situation when the mechatronic unit is damaged?

The reason for the damage to the mechatronic unit is that the lubrication level of the transmission oil does not meet the requirements. Below are the relevant details: 1. Specific reasons: The transmission mechatronic unit has high requirements for shifting and maintenance. If the lubrication level of the transmission oil is insufficient, the transmission will not receive adequate lubrication over time, accelerating wear and tear on the transmission, leading to damage to the mechatronic unit and shortening the transmission's service life. The solution is to replace it with high-quality transmission oil. 2. Symptoms of damage: Signs of a damaged mechatronic unit include the gear indicator light on the car dashboard illuminating, car shaking, the transmission being unable to upshift, missing odd or even gears, and in severe cases, the vehicle may not operate normally. Other possible symptoms include fault codes indicating an inability to engage gears, or fault codes related to the clutch unintentionally opening or closing.

What are the two reference points for exiting a parallel parking space?

Exiting a parallel parking space: Step 1: After hearing the voice prompt, depress the clutch and brake, shift into first gear, turn on the left turn signal, turn the steering wheel fully, and slowly exit the space. When the right front corner of the hood aligns with the roadside line (this is the first reference point), straighten the steering wheel and continue moving forward. The second reference point: Step 2: Continue moving forward. When the left one-third of the hood aligns with the yellow line (this is the second reference point), turn the steering wheel one full turn to the right. Guide the vehicle around the corner of the parking space to exit. When the car body is parallel to the road, straighten the steering wheel to the left and exit the parallel parking test area. Precautions for exiting: During the process of exiting a parallel parking space, pay attention to controlling the clutch. The speed should be slow, but do not stop midway. The timing of turning the steering wheel must be precise; otherwise, missing the right moment can easily lead to crossing the line.

Will the Car Key Be Damaged If Washed in the Washing Machine?

Whether a car key can still be used after being washed in the washing machine depends on the situation. Generally, it can still function. When a car key is accidentally washed in the washing machine, avoid shaking it vigorously, as this can spread the moisture inside the key and potentially increase the damage. Below are some functions of a car key: 1. Vehicle Locator: The vehicle locator function uses the remote or alarm system. Pressing the button will make the car's horn sound and the hazard lights flash, making it easier to find your car in a crowded parking lot. 2. Window Closure: After exiting the car, holding down the lock button can remotely close all four windows. This is a very convenient and frequently used feature. 3. Trunk Opening: The car remote key has a button to open the trunk. If you're coming out of a supermarket with bags in both hands, you might find it useful to know that holding down the trunk unlock button (or pressing it twice for some cars) will automatically pop open the trunk.
