Subject 2 driving test rules are as follows: Reversing into a garage: Failure to follow the prescribed route, vehicle body crossing the line, failure to enter the garage, or stopping midway will result in failure. Slope fixed-point parking and starting: The vehicle must be parked accurately and started smoothly without rolling backward, and the starting time must not exceed 30 seconds. Parallel parking: After parking the vehicle on the right side in front of the garage, reverse into the garage in one go without stopping midway, and the wheels must not touch or cross the lane boundary or garage boundary. Right-angle turn: Drive the vehicle along the prescribed route, turning right or left at a right angle in one go without stopping midway, and the wheels must not touch the lane boundary. Curve driving: Drive the vehicle into the curve from one end and exit from the other end. Steering and speed must be steady during the drive, without stopping midway, and the wheels must not touch the lane boundary.

Just passed the subject 2 driving test last week and finally figured out the tricks. The test consists of five items: reverse parking, parallel parking, hill start, right-angle turn, and curve driving. Before the test, scan your ID in the waiting area and wait for your name to be called before entering the test vehicle. Once in the car, don't rush to start - first adjust the seat and mirrors, fasten the seatbelt, and test the clutch depth with a couple of presses. The biggest fear in reverse parking is crossing lines, so turning the steering wheel quickly and accurately is key; hill starts are most prone to stalling, so maintain clutch control and release slowly. Each item has electronic proctoring - crossing lines directly deducts 100 points. The most frustrating rule is that stopping for more than 2 seconds during any item means instant failure! Remember to drive the car back to the starting point after completing the test, engage the handbrake, and then exit the vehicle.

A veteran driving instructor with 20 years of experience tells you that the core of Subject 2 boils down to three words: steady, precise, and decisive. The exam process is simple: check-in and photo ➡️ vehicle preparation ➡️ follow voice instructions for test items ➡️ return to the starting point. Key details: during slope parking, the front bumper must be within the yellow line—50cm off deducts 10 points, exceeding 50cm means instant failure! Turn signals must be activated in advance for right-angle turns. Don’t even think about stopping to take a breather—the system fails you if it detects a 2-second stop. Final reminder: some forget to unbuckle their seatbelt before opening the door after the test, nullifying their effort! If you fail the first attempt, don’t panic—you get one immediate retake.

Here's a checklist for you to pass the test, key points for the five major challenges in Subject 2: 1️⃣ Reverse parking must be completed within 210 seconds, hitting the line with the rear of the car means immediate failure; 2️⃣ Parallel parking has a 90-second time limit, failing to signal left when exiting deducts 10 points; 3️⃣ Hill start, the front bumper must press the middle yellow line for full marks (within 30cm), and you must start within 30 seconds after stopping; 4️⃣ Turning at a right angle requires signaling without fail; 5️⃣ For curve driving, don’t rely on the wipers, checking the rearview mirror is safest. Remember not to press the road edge line throughout the test, and avoid squeezing the wheels against the curb. It’s recommended to wear thin-soled shoes during the test for better foot sensitivity.

What is the difference between 4LLC and 4HLC?

4HLC and 4LLC differ in their meanings, usage scenarios, and operational limitations, as detailed below: "4HLC": Represents low-range four-wheel drive. Drivers should switch to this mode when encountering snowy or icy road conditions, as it provides excellent traction and superior handling performance. The corresponding speed for "4HLC" should be kept below 40 km/h. "4LLC": Represents ultra-low-range four-wheel drive. This mode is used in extremely harsh environments such as swamps or deserts. 4LLC is employed for full-time four-wheel drive when climbing steep slopes with a gradient of 1:4 or greater, or when requiring greater towing capacity (for towing trucks weighing 3-5 tons or more) and driving torque.

What does a 3-year or 100,000-kilometer warranty mean?

A three-year or 100,000-kilometer warranty means that if any non-human-induced issues arise with the vehicle within three years or 100,000 kilometers, the manufacturer will provide free repairs or replacements. Beyond this period or mileage, the vehicle will no longer be covered by the warranty. Warranty conditions: Many car manufacturers offer a warranty of three years or 100,000 kilometers. If the vehicle is used for more than three years or exceeds 100,000 kilometers in mileage, it will no longer be covered by the warranty. During usage, meeting either condition will void the warranty. For example, if the vehicle has been used for three years but the mileage has not exceeded 100,000 kilometers, it is still considered out of warranty, and vice versa. Warranty coverage: The warranty period and mileage do not apply to all components of the vehicle. Different parts have different warranty durations. Components such as the battery, wipers, and rubber-based equipment typically have shorter warranty periods. The three-year or 100,000-kilometer warranty often mentioned by 4S stores usually refers to the vehicle's major components (e.g., engine, transmission, and drivetrain), which is important to understand when purchasing a car. Warranty requirements: While the three-year or 100,000-kilometer warranty provides coverage, there are certain conditions for claiming it. The warranty only applies to faults not caused by human damage. If the issue is due to personal misuse, the manufacturer may not cover the repairs. Additionally, if the vehicle experiences quality problems and is repaired unsuccessfully elsewhere, the manufacturer may also refuse responsibility.

What does 48V mild hybrid mean?

48V mild hybrid refers to a vehicle equipped with a 48V mild hybrid system. "48V mild hybrid" is also known as MHEV, which involves upgrading the traditional 12V circuit voltage to 48V and replacing the conventional starter and alternator with a BSG (Belt-driven Starter Generator) and a bidirectional 48V/12V DC/DC converter. Below is a detailed explanation of the 48V mild hybrid system: Definition of the 48V mild hybrid system: "48V mild hybrid" is also known as MHEV, which involves upgrading the traditional 12V circuit voltage to 48V and replacing the conventional starter and alternator with a BSG (Belt-driven Starter Generator) and a bidirectional 48V/12V DC/DC converter. Basic principles of the 48V mild hybrid system: The 48V mild hybrid system is not classified as a new energy vehicle at the mechanical definition level because it cannot independently provide electrical energy for pure electric driving. In daily use, electrical energy is only used to assist vehicle propulsion. On the basis of the traditional vehicle's 12V electrical system, the voltage is increased to 48V, and with the addition of components such as electric motors and battery packs, it achieves the effects of assisting vehicle propulsion and storing/recovering electrical energy.

Can the touch-up paint from a 4S store last for 8 years?

The lifespan of touch-up paint from a 4S store depends on the quality of the paint used and the workmanship. If done well, it can last over a decade, but if poorly executed, it may crack within a year or two. Here is a detailed introduction to automotive painting: Overview: Automotive painting refers to applying a layer of paint to the car's surface to protect it. Automotive paint is typically baked-on paint. In automobile manufacturing plants, after the frame and body are welded, the next step is painting. Types include standard paint, metallic paint, and pearl paint. Automotive painting process: applying putty, sanding, painting, etc. Composition: Automotive paint generally consists of four basic components: film-forming substances, pigments, solvents, and additives. The film-forming substance is the main component of the paint, responsible for keeping the pigments bright, durable, and adhering to the surface. Pigments are one of the two non-volatile substances in paint. Solvents are the volatile components in paint.

Is It Safe to Buy Used Cars from 4S Stores?

Used cars from 4S stores can be purchased. The sources of used cars in 4S stores are mainly trade-in vehicles. The so-called trade-in vehicles refer to cars that owners exchange for new vehicles, offsetting some of the costs of the new car. These trade-in vehicles then become the used cars that 4S stores sell. Below is an extended introduction: Reliability: Relatively speaking, 4S stores provide a certain level of quality assurance for their car sources, making them slightly more trustworthy compared to other channels. Additionally, 4S stores usually offer services such as extended warranties. Selection: However, it is still essential to be cautious. Friends who are not knowledgeable about cars should be especially careful, and even those who understand cars must be prudent. It is best to seek help from trusted professionals to assist in selecting, identifying, and evaluating the vehicles.

Do 4S shops use touch-up paint pens for spot painting?

4S shops use touch-up paint pens for spot painting. More details about touch-up paint pens are as follows: 1. Introduction: A touch-up paint pen is a tool for repairing car scratches. Simply select the appropriate model that matches the original color of the car paint. Applying the touch-up paint pen to small scratches or areas where the paint has peeled off can repair, conceal, and fill in the damage. 2. Precautions: The composition of a touch-up paint pen is generally the same as the original car paint. Since car models vary, only specialized touch-up paint pens can be used for different cars. For larger, longer, or deeper scratches, a touch-up paint pen can only provide temporary concealment and cannot achieve the same effect as a full paint repair.
