If the color change with film is not registered and is discovered, a fine will be imposed without any deduction of points. According to Article 79 of the "Regulations on the Registration of Motor Vehicles," if the body color is changed without completing the required modification registration, the traffic management department of the public security organ will issue a warning or impose a fine. The vehicle may also be impounded and required to revert to its original color. To apply for a change in the body color of a motor vehicle, the following documents must be submitted in accordance with the "Road Traffic Safety Law": "Application Form for Modification of Motor Vehicle Registration." Original and photocopy of the identity proof of the vehicle owner and agent. Original motor vehicle registration certificate. Original motor vehicle driving license. Payment of all fines before the color change. According to Article 6, Chapter 2 of the "Road Traffic Safety Law," if the color change area of a motor vehicle does not exceed 30%, it does not require modification registration. Conversely, if it exceeds 30%, it must be filed and registered within 10 days after the color change. Precautions for vehicle color change: Before changing the color of a motor vehicle, it is necessary to consult the vehicle management office where the vehicle is registered to confirm whether the region allows the use of film to change the vehicle color. If the region does not support this method, the modification cannot be registered, and the film must be completely removed to restore the vehicle's original color. Additionally, according to the "Regulations on the Registration of Motor Vehicles," owners are no longer required to apply to the vehicle management office in advance. They can first change the vehicle color, install body kits, replace the engine, etc., and then apply for modification registration with the vehicle management office. According to Article 10, registered motor vehicles must apply for modification registration under the following circumstances: Change of body color. Replacement of the engine. Replacement of the body or frame. Replacement of the entire vehicle due to quality issues. Change from commercial to non-commercial use or vice versa. The owner's residence moves out of or into the jurisdiction of the vehicle management office. Furthermore, according to Article 15 of the "Road Traffic Safety Law of the People's Republic of China": Police cars, fire trucks, ambulances, and engineering rescue vehicles must be painted with designated patterns and equipped with alarms and signal lights as required. Other motor vehicles are prohibited from painting, installing, or using patterns, alarms, or signal lights that are specific to or resemble those of the aforementioned vehicles.

How many years can a normal car battery last?

Normal car batteries can last 2 to 4 years. Car batteries are divided into maintenance-free batteries and regular batteries (lead-acid batteries). Currently, most car models use maintenance-free batteries, while many Japanese cars use regular batteries. The electrodes of regular batteries are made of lead and lead oxide, with the electrolyte being a sulfuric acid solution, and their lifespan is generally about 2 years. Therefore, replacing them every two years is reasonable. Maintenance-free batteries are relatively more durable and usually need to be replaced every 3 years. To extend the battery's lifespan, regular maintenance is required, along with good driving habits. When the electrolyte is insufficient, the battery won't hold a charge, so it's necessary to replenish it promptly.

What causes a car to stall immediately after starting?

The reasons why a car stalls immediately after starting are: 1. The vehicle's anti-theft system is triggered, locking the engine; 2. Ignition switch failure, caused by poor contact of internal contacts in the ignition switch, where the ignition line has power during startup but loses power when the key is released; 3. Damage to the ignition module or the ignition reference signal line from the ignition module to the engine computer; 4. Too low fuel system pressure, such as low fuel pump pressure, fuel line leakage, small supply current, or damaged fuel pressure regulator; 5. Additionally, if the fuel pump does not pump fuel, the same phenomenon occurs during the first dozen or so startups—the car can start but stalls immediately afterward.

How to Turn on the Car Air Conditioning in Summer?

To turn on the car air conditioning in summer, follow these steps: After starting the vehicle, press the AC button and turn the knob toward the blue direction. Blue indicates cool air, while red indicates warm air—choose the correct setting. Regarding fan speed, the higher the gear, the stronger the wind speed. The car air conditioning is used to adjust and control the temperature, humidity, air cleanliness, and airflow inside the vehicle to the optimal state, providing a comfortable riding environment for passengers and reducing travel fatigue. Things to note when using the air conditioning: 1. Do not rush to turn on the air conditioning—if it is turned on immediately after starting the car, it will increase the engine load and cause damage. 2. Adjust the air vents upward to maximize the air conditioning effect. 3. Do not sleep in the car with the air conditioning on when the engine is turned off.

Where is the Clutch Located?

The clutch is located inside the flywheel housing between the engine and the transmission. The clutch assembly is secured to the rear plane of the flywheel with screws, and the output shaft of the clutch is the input shaft of the transmission. During driving, the driver can press or release the clutch pedal as needed to temporarily disconnect or gradually engage the engine and the transmission, thereby cutting off or transmitting the power from the engine to the transmission. The clutch is a common component in mechanical transmission systems, allowing the drivetrain to be disconnected or engaged at any time. Its basic requirements include smooth engagement, quick and thorough disengagement, ease of adjustment and repair, compact size, lightweight, good wear resistance, sufficient heat dissipation capacity, and effortless operation. Commonly, clutches are divided into two types: jaw clutches and friction clutches.
