The main pollutants emitted by engines include carbon monoxide (CO), nitrogen oxides (NOx), hydrocarbons (HC), and particulate matter. Engine maintenance methods are: 1. Use high-quality engine oil; 2. Use qualified coolant; 3. Regularly clean the radiator scale; 4. Periodically remove carbon deposits from the car; 5. Replace the three filters on time; 6. Maintain reasonable engine speed. The car engine is the device that provides power to the vehicle, determining its power performance, fuel economy, stability, and environmental friendliness. Automotive engines are classified into diesel engines, gasoline engines, electric vehicle motors, and hybrid motors.

What Causes Abnormal Noises in a Car?

If the car makes a squeaking sound when driving at low speeds, it is likely coming from the suspension. The car's suspension includes components such as links, springs, shock absorbers, and stabilizer bars. If any of these parts are abnormal, such as loose bolts, they may produce abnormal noises due to movement. The details are as follows: 1. Inside the car: If the noise comes from inside the car, it is necessary to check whether the clock spring under the steering wheel and the universal joint inside the steering column are functioning normally. Wear or malfunction of these two components can cause abnormal noise. 2. Outside the car: If the noise comes from outside the car, it is necessary to check whether the upper plane bearings of the two front shock absorbers are worn, whether the ball joints of the steering gear are loose, and whether the internal rack and pinion of the steering gear are worn. Malfunction of these three components can lead to abnormal noise in the vehicle.

Is it necessary to drive the car for out-of-town vehicle registration transfer?

Out-of-town vehicle registration transfer requires driving the car to the destination and completing the registration process at the local vehicle management office. Below are the procedures involved in out-of-town vehicle registration transfer: 1. Suspicious vehicle investigation: Mainly involves verifying whether the engine and chassis numbers have been altered, whether they match the original records, and whether the vehicle is stolen. 2. Issuance of a used car transaction invoice: For vehicles under customs supervision, the 'Notice of License Plate Collection/Cancellation for Customs Supervised Vehicles at the Border (Exit) of the People's Republic of China' issued by the supervising customs must be submitted, along with the identity proofs of the transferor and transferee (or unit), and relevant documents pertaining to the vehicle.

Why is it necessary to replace brake fluid regularly?

Here are the reasons for replacing brake fluid: 1. Brake fluid, commonly known as brake oil, has a limited service life. Unopened brake fluid typically has a shelf life of about 3 years, while opened brake fluid lasts about 1 year. 2. Expired brake fluid gradually emulsifies and deteriorates. During the emulsification process, bubbles may form and accumulate in the pipelines, unable to be released. This creates air resistance, affecting the normal transmission of hydraulic pressure and leading to reduced braking performance or even failure. Additionally, brake fluid has strong water absorption properties. Over time, absorbed water lowers the boiling point of the brake fluid, resulting in insufficient brake pressure and compromised braking effectiveness. 3. Using brake fluid beyond its recommended service period may not affect daily driving, and there may be no noticeable abnormalities. However, during downhill driving or aggressive driving, the high temperatures generated by the braking system can cause the brake fluid to boil. This can lead to bubble formation in the brake lines, severely affecting the operation of the braking system in extreme cases. Brake failure caused by boiling brake fluid often occurs suddenly without warning.

What to do if the driver's license renewal is one month overdue?

If the driver's license is one month overdue, it can still be renewed normally. Time regulations: If the license is overdue for less than one year, it can be renewed normally; if it is overdue for more than one year but less than three years, the license will be revoked, but it can be renewed by passing the subject one exam; if it is overdue for more than three years, the license will be invalid and cannot be renewed. Renewal process: The motor vehicle driver should bring the required materials and apply for renewal at the vehicle management office where the driver's license was originally issued. The vehicle management office will process the renewal within one working day after approval. Penalties for overdue driver's license: Driving a motor vehicle during the overdue period is not allowed and will be treated as driving without a license. If the driver's license is overdue for less than one year, the driver can renew it at any time, but if caught driving, a fine of 200 yuan will be imposed. If the driver's license is overdue for more than one year without renewal, the traffic management department will revoke it. If the overdue period is less than three years, the driver must retake and pass the subject one exam to restore driving privileges. Driving during this period will result in a fine ranging from 200 to 2000 yuan. If the driver's license is overdue for more than three years, it will be permanently revoked. To drive again, the driver must retake the driver's license exam. Otherwise, driving will be treated as driving without a license, resulting in a fine of 2000 yuan and up to 15 days of administrative detention.

What does a yellow exclamation mark in a car mean?

When a yellow exclamation mark appears on the car dashboard, it indicates one of four possible issues: general malfunction, automatic transmission failure, abnormal tire pressure, or lighting system failure. Below is a detailed analysis of these four scenarios: General Malfunction: A triangle with an exclamation mark inside indicates a fault in the car's general performance, components, or functions. Common causes include parking sensor failure, fuel cut-off system intervention or malfunction, external light failure, or engine oil pressure sensor malfunction. It is recommended to visit a 4S shop for inspection to identify the source of the issue. Automatic Transmission Failure: A yellow gear with an exclamation mark inside is the automatic transmission warning light, indicating a transmission fault or low transmission fluid level. The transmission fluid should be replaced promptly. Abnormal Tire Pressure: A horizontal line under a bracket with an exclamation mark in the middle represents the tire pressure monitoring warning light. This light illuminates when the tire pressure is too low. Check the tire pressure and adjust it to the normal range. Lighting System Failure: A yellow bulb with an exclamation mark is the lighting fault indicator, signaling a malfunction in one of the car's lights. Solution: Visit a 4S shop for inspection as soon as possible, or conduct a self-check focusing on commonly used bulbs such as turn signals, fog lights, and interior lights to identify the issue. There is also a red exclamation mark inside a circled bracket, which indicates a brake system warning. Possible causes include brake system failure or low brake fluid level. Immediate inspection of the brake system is necessary to prevent accidents.
