Modifying a vehicle requires applying for a change of registration. If no application is made, it is considered an unauthorized modification and carries certain legal consequences. The following are specific penalties for vehicle modifications: 1. Changing the vehicle's color: a warning or a fine of up to 200 yuan. 2. Changing the engine type or installing large body kits or protective devices: a warning or a fine of up to 500 yuan. The following situations result in a 12-point deduction: 1. Vehicle type: driving a vehicle that does not match the permitted vehicle type. 2. Drunk driving: driving under the influence of alcohol or while intoxicated. 3. Overloading: driving a passenger vehicle with more than 20% over the approved number of passengers.

How to Fix a Failed ETC Tag by Yourself?

Methods to fix a failed ETC tag by yourself: 1. Most ETC devices will not detect whether they have been removed when out of power, nor will they become invalid. You can detach the ETC tag; 2. Press the electronic tag firmly with one hand, then use a wallpaper knife to cut the double-sided tape connecting it to the windshield. During the process, ensure the ETC anti-tamper switch is pressed firmly. After removal, theoretically, you can use 502 glue to block the anti-tamper switch; 3. Use a pry bar or a small flat-head screwdriver to open the electronic tag casing, remove the ETC battery, and replace it with a new 18650 lithium battery; 4. Solder the positive and negative power wires with a soldering iron, then close the ETC device cover; 5. Reattach the electronic tag to its original position on the windshield and turn on the ETC device power switch. If the indicator light turns on, it means the device has returned to normal. There is no strict requirement on how often to charge the ETC. For solar-powered ETC devices, it is recommended to charge them every 3 months if not used frequently to avoid affecting the battery lifespan due to self-discharge.

What causes the clutch to become hard to press when a Hyundai car gets hot?

This may be caused by issues with the clutch pressure plate or release bearing. It is recommended to have the pressure plate and release bearing checked. Below are methods to properly operate the clutch in different situations: 1. When starting the car: First press the clutch pedal, then find the semi-engaged state while slightly pressing the accelerator with your right foot to increase the engine speed. Slowly release the clutch and pause slightly when reaching the semi-engaged state. 2. When downshifting: First reduce the car's speed until it reaches the required lower gear, then press the clutch and control it using the principle of 'one fast, two slow, three coordinated movements'. 3. When upshifting: First increase the speed to the corresponding RPM, then quickly press the clutch pedal and slowly release it. You can press the accelerator slightly while pressing the clutch.

Is it necessary to replace a damaged underbody felt panel?

Yes, it is necessary. Below is relevant information about the underbody: 1. Introduction: The underbody refers to the combination of the transmission system, running gear, steering system, and braking system in a vehicle. It supports and mounts the engine and its various components and assemblies, forming the overall shape of the vehicle, bearing the engine's power, and ensuring normal operation. 2. Expansion: The running gear consists of parts such as the frame, axle, suspension, and wheels. Its basic function is to support the vehicle's weight and ensure its movement. The steering system is composed of the steering wheel, steering gear, steering knuckle, steering knuckle arm, tie rod, and drag link, among others, and its role is to steer the vehicle.

Does White or Black Make a Car Look Bigger?

White cars tend to appear larger. The reason lies in the refraction of light. Here are some driving tips: 1. Cold engine warm-up: Proper warm-up helps form an "oil film" between engine components, reducing wear. 2. Timely gear shifting: During the break-in period for manual transmission vehicles, shift gears promptly and appropriately, avoiding incorrect behaviors like high gear with low RPM or low gear with high RPM, and don't use a single gear for extended periods. 3. Timely maintenance: Simply follow the manufacturer's recommendations in the vehicle manual to perform inspections and maintenance at certain mileage or time intervals, including oil and oil filter changes, along with a comprehensive chassis system check. 4. Avoid emergency braking: Emergency braking not only shocks the breaking-in brake system but also increases impact loads on the vehicle's chassis and engine.

What Are the Causes of Insufficient Car Power?

The causes of insufficient car power include substandard gasoline quality or clogged fuel system, excessively rich combustible mixture, engine overheating, etc. Substandard gasoline quality or the use of incompatible fuel grades can lead to a decrease in the car's output power. Blockages in the fuel tank vent, fuel tank switch, fuel filter, or the fuel line between the tank and the carburetor can restrict the required fuel supply, resulting in insufficient power during engine operation. Owners should use the appropriate fuel grade for their engine as specified, perform regular maintenance, and clean the engine's fuel system as needed. Air is one of the power sources for the engine. If the air filter is not cleaned in time after prolonged use and becomes clogged, insufficient air supply can cause an excessively rich combustible mixture, reducing engine power. Owners should regularly clean the air filter and replace it at the recommended maintenance intervals at a 4S shop to avoid an overly rich combustible mixture. Insufficient engine oil, low engine coolant levels, or malfunctioning engine cooling systems can increase the engine's load, leading to poor heat dissipation. Engine overheating can result in inadequate lubrication, increased mechanical wear, reduced engine power, and higher fuel consumption. Owners should regularly check the levels of engine oil and coolant, avoid mixing different types of engine oil, and refrain from using water as a substitute for coolant. Regular maintenance is essential to prevent engine overheating.
