The latest regulations for vehicle inspection are as follows: 1. Expanded exemption scope for private cars: On the basis of exempting non-operational mini and micro passenger vehicles with 6 seats or below from inspection within 6 years, non-operational small passenger vehicles with 7 to 9 seats (excluding minivans) within 6 years are now included in the exemption scope. Applicable vehicle types include non-operational small and micro passenger cars and non-operational large cars, but minivans are not included in the exemption. 2. Penalties for illegal modifications: Vehicles involved in traffic accidents causing casualties or illegal modifications will be penalized according to law. For vehicles that have not completed registration procedures for more than 4 years since the date of manufacture, they will still undergo annual inspection within 6 years as per the original regulations. Minivans, vehicles penalized for illegal modifications, and vehicles involved in traffic accidents causing casualties are not eligible for the exemption policy. 3. Optimized exemption cycle: For non-operational mini and micro passenger vehicles (excluding minivans) over 6 years but under 10 years, the inspection frequency is adjusted from once a year to once every two years.

As a regular car owner who drives to and from work daily, I recently went for my vehicle inspection and found the new regulations much more user-friendly. Starting from 2022, the annual inspection cycle for small private cars has been significantly adjusted: vehicles within 10 years only need to undergo an on-site inspection every two years, which is much more convenient than before. Previously, new cars were exempt from on-site inspections for the first 6 years but had to apply for inspection stickers every two years. Now, within 10 years, only the 6th, 8th, and 10th years require on-site testing. Another change is stricter environmental standards for inspection items, such as more rigorous exhaust emission tests, but the process has been simplified. Many places now support online appointments—I scheduled mine directly on my phone, and the whole thing took less than half an hour. The cost hasn’t changed much, but applying for inspection stickers for exempt vehicles is now free. These new rules have saved me a lot of hassle, and I recommend everyone to check their vehicle condition regularly to avoid fines for overdue inspections. Safety comes first, and saving time and effort is what really matters.

I just finished studying the latest vehicle inspection regulations, and the technical changes are quite interesting from a professional perspective. After policy optimization, the focus of inspections has shifted towards enhancing safety performance. For example, more vehicle models now support OBD system data reading for emission monitoring, reducing human inspection errors. The cycle simplification is evident: new vehicles only require three on-site inspections within the first 10 years, annual inspections for vehicles aged 10-15 years, and semi-annual inspections for those over 15 years, but with flexible adjustment options. Meanwhile, inspections for vehicle lighting and braking systems have become more detailed, and environmental standards have been upgraded to China VI. Online appointments have become mainstream, making cross-regional inspections more convenient without the need for a power of attorney. The saved time can be used for maintenance to prevent minor issues from turning into major faults. The overall trend is towards intelligent and efficient inspections, encouraging vehicle owners to comply with timely checks to ensure road safety, a direction I fully support.

Where is the fuse box of the Besturn B70 CD player located?

The Besturn B70 CD player has two fuse boxes in total. One is located at the rear left side of the engine compartment, and the other is on the lower part of the pillar on the left side of the driver's position inside the cabin. Precautions: When a circuit malfunctions or behaves abnormally, the current continuously increases. This rising current may damage certain important or valuable components in the circuit, and could even burn out the circuit or cause a fire. Function of the fuse: If a fuse is correctly installed in the circuit, it will melt and cut off the current when the current abnormally rises to a certain level and duration, thereby protecting the safe operation of the circuit.

Where can I get a car key made in Hejiang?

You can go directly to a car 4S store to get a car key made, or you can also go to an auto parts market to get a car key made. Functions of car keys: In addition to controlling the opening and closing of car doors, car keys can also control the opening and closing of windows and the trunk. These two functions are also commonly used in daily life. When you want to increase air circulation inside the car for ventilation or to remove odors, you can simply pick up the remote control to roll down the windows. Working principle: When the car owner presses the button on the key, the key end sends out a signal containing corresponding command information. The car end antenna receives the radio wave signal, and after being authenticated by the body control module (BCM), the actuator performs the unlocking/locking action.

Does the Jimny's driveshaft need grease lubrication?

Jimny's driveshaft does not require grease lubrication. Due to different load-bearing requirements, grease lubrication is typically applied to heavily loaded friction components, and generally only large trucks need grease lubrication. Grease has poor fluidity and can easily penetrate into the internal parts of components. The vehicle's undercarriage does not have grease-lubrication equipment for applying grease, so simply inspecting the undercarriage during regular maintenance is sufficient. Function of the driveshaft: The driveshaft is a crucial component in the automotive drivetrain that transmits power. Its role is to work together with the transmission and drive axle to transfer the engine's power to the wheels, enabling the vehicle to generate driving force. Note: The driveshaft is a high-speed, minimally supported rotating body, so its dynamic balance is critical. Generally, driveshafts undergo dynamic balance testing before leaving the factory and are adjusted on a balancing machine.

What are the three common types of supercharging methods?

There are three common types of supercharging methods as follows: Exhaust Turbocharging: It utilizes the exhaust gases emitted after engine combustion to drive the turbine on the exhaust side, which in turn rotates the impeller on the other side. The rotation of the impeller allows the engine to intake more air and compress it, thereby achieving the goal of increased air intake. Mechanical Supercharging: Mechanical supercharging can achieve boost even at low engine speeds. Since it is directly driven by the engine, the boosting effect increases as the engine speed rises. Compound Supercharging: Compound supercharging essentially combines both mechanical supercharging and exhaust turbocharging in one vehicle. They work together at high and low speeds to ensure the engine achieves optimal performance under various operating conditions.
