If the exhaust pipe is completely blocked, the car will not start at all. If the exhaust pipe is partially blocked but not completely, the following symptoms may occur: 1. The car will have difficulty accelerating, and it will be hard to increase engine RPM and speed. This is because poor exhaust flow reduces the intake air volume, leading to a drop in engine power. 2. Frequent forced downshifting in automatic transmission vehicles. Due to the reduced engine power caused by the exhaust blockage, the driver needs to press the accelerator pedal harder to get more power output, which opens the throttle valve wide. As a result, the ECU controls the automatic transmission to force a downshift based on the throttle valve opening status.

Can a driver's license be processed in another province?

Driver's licenses can be processed at the vehicle management office in another location. If the registered residence of a motor vehicle driver is relocated outside the jurisdiction of the original vehicle management office, the driver should apply for a license replacement at the vehicle management office of the new location. Motor vehicle drivers residing outside the jurisdiction of the issuing vehicle management office can apply for a license replacement at the vehicle management office of their residence. The initial validity period of a motor vehicle driver's license is 6 years, with the first year being a probationary period. The second renewal after 6 years is valid for 10 years, and subsequent renewals after 10 years will be long-term. Motor vehicle drivers should apply for a license replacement at the issuing vehicle management office within 90 days before the expiration of their current driver's license.

What is the tire pressure for small cars in summer?

The tire pressure for small cars in summer is around 2.1 to 2.4 bar. Tire pressure refers to the air pressure inside the tire. Hazards of abnormal tire pressure: 1. Reduced tire friction and adhesion, affecting braking performance; 2. Causes steering wheel vibration and deviation, reducing driving comfort; 3. Accelerates localized wear of the central tread pattern, shortening tire lifespan; 4. Increases vehicle vibration, indirectly affecting the lifespan of other components; 5. Causes excessive stretching deformation of tire cords, reducing tire elasticity and increasing the load on the car while driving; 6. Increases the friction coefficient with the road surface, leading to higher fuel consumption; 7. Increases the movement of various parts of the tire, causing abnormal heating due to excessive rolling.
