The impacts of increasing wheel size by two inches include: 1. The car's tires will become thinner, affecting the comfort of the vehicle; 2. It will increase the load on the steering gear and also the engine's load; 3. The car's chassis height will be raised, altering the original aerodynamics at high speeds, making the vehicle very unstable during high-speed driving. The functions of the wheel hub are: 1. To mount the axle, supporting the tire and cushioning external impacts; 2. To facilitate contact between the tire and the road surface, ensuring the vehicle's driving performance. The maintenance methods for the wheel hub are: 1. Avoid using cold water for cleaning when the temperature is high; 2. If the vehicle is parked in a damp location for a long time, regular cleaning is necessary to prevent salt corrosion.

How many days does it take for the Beijing vehicle quota to be released after transfer?

It takes 3 to 10 working days to complete. After the motor vehicle transfer is completed, the quota will be updated accordingly. The quota owner can check the recovery status of the quota at any time. Once fully restored, the motor vehicle registration procedure can be re-processed; otherwise, it cannot be processed. More relevant information is as follows: 1. Restrictions on vehicle license plate usage: There are no restrictions on the use of motor vehicle license plates in Beijing. They can be used anywhere nationwide, as long as the Road Traffic Safety Law of the People's Republic of China is complied with, and local policies on traffic restrictions for non-local motor vehicles are observed. Violations will be subject to penalties. 2. Violation handling: Violations can be handled at any vehicle management office within the jurisdiction or through the mobile app 'Traffic Management 12123'. Traffic violations by motor vehicles must be dealt with, as they will affect the normal annual inspection of the vehicle. Motor vehicles that fail the annual inspection are not allowed to be driven on the road, which is considered illegal.

What does it mean to fail to slow down as required?

It means the computer instructs the driver to proceed straight, turn left, or turn right at an intersection, but the driver fails to comply with these instructions. Typically, this results in a failing grade. Below is relevant content: 1. Subject 3 Test Content: Includes 16 road driving skill items such as vehicle preparation, starting, straight-line driving, lane changing, passing through intersections, pulling over, crossing pedestrian crosswalks, passing school zones, passing bus stops, meeting oncoming vehicles, overtaking, making U-turns, night driving, gear shifting operations, left turns at intersections, and right turns at intersections. 2. Subject 2: Also known as the small road test, it is part of the motor vehicle driver's license assessment and refers to the field driving skill test. For cars C1 and C2, the test items include five mandatory components: reverse parking, parallel parking, stopping and starting on a slope, right-angle turns, and curve driving (commonly known as S-turns). Some regions may include a sixth item: high-speed toll card collection. 3. Subject 1: Also referred to as the theoretical test or driver theory test, it is part of the motor vehicle driver's license assessment. According to the "Regulations on the Application and Use of Motor Vehicle Driver's Licenses," the test covers driving theory basics, road safety laws and regulations, local regulations, and related knowledge. The test is conducted on a computer, consisting of 100 questions, with a passing score of 90 or above.

What is a Headlight Lens?

Headlight lenses are primarily used for xenon lamps. A headlight lens is essentially an optical glass lens assembly placed in front of the headlight bulb. It helps focus the light more effectively, extending the beam's range and thereby achieving better illumination. Key details are as follows: 1. Function of automotive headlight lenses: Xenon lamps produce high-intensity light that tends to scatter, which can dazzle other drivers during nighttime driving. The lens, with its strong light-concentrating capability, serves to gather this scattered light into more parallel beams. 2. There are generally two types of automotive headlight lenses: single-beam lenses and dual-beam lenses.

What Causes Suspension Noise?

The causes of shock absorber noise include the following: 1. Oil leakage or bending: Noise caused by the shock absorber itself leaking oil or bending. In this case, simply replacing the shock absorber with a new one can solve the problem; 2. Aging or wear: Abnormal aging or wear of the shock absorber pressure bearing. This issue can be resolved by directly replacing or lubricating the bearing; 3. Spring deformation: The noise might be due to deformation of the shock absorber spring. Replacing the spring with a new one can fix this; 4. Wheel bearing: The noise could also be coming from the wheel bearing, which would require replacing the wheel bearing.

Why does the car's stop light come on and then go off?

When starting the car, the stop light may come on briefly due to low temperatures and then turn off. Here is some relevant information about the stop light: 1. Concept: The STOP light is a mandatory parking warning light, which should illuminate simultaneously with other warning lights such as low oil pressure, low brake fluid level, or high coolant temperature, indicating that the engine must be stopped. 2. Classification: The dashboard also includes indicators for coolant temperature, oil pressure, air pressure, engine, and cab. If any component malfunctions, the STOP light will illuminate. For example, if the engine coolant temperature is too high while driving, the coolant warning light will come on, and the STOP light will also illuminate to indicate an engine fault. There is also a yellow light on the dashboard, while the STOP light is red. A yellow light indicates a general fault, and a red light indicates a serious fault.
