The symptoms of a broken shock absorber spring include: 1. When the car is on a bumpy road, it makes a creaking or rattling sound when encountering bumps; 2. When the car is driving slowly and emergency braking is applied, the car vibrates more violently; 3. The car shakes severely while driving, and there is significant residual vibration when parked. The shock absorber spring is a simple elastic component, mainly providing stability, low noise, and good shock absorption effects, and it also plays a role in mitigating many dangerous situations. Shock absorber springs can be divided into four categories: steel wire compression springs, rubber springs, composite springs, and airbag springs. The shock absorber is mainly used to suppress the oscillation when the spring rebounds after absorbing shock and the impact from the road surface. When driving on uneven roads, although the shock-absorbing spring can filter out the road vibrations, the spring itself still has reciprocating motion, and the shock absorber is used to suppress this spring bounce.

What does 16pr tire mean?

16pr tire is equivalent to a 16-ply cotton cord body strength. Here is an introduction about tires: 1. Introduction: A tire is a circular elastic rubber product assembled on various vehicles or machinery for rolling contact with the ground. In 1845, R.W. Thomson, a civil engineer born in Scotland, invented the pneumatic tire. 2. Specifications: Specifications are the marking data of a tire's geometric parameters and physical performance. Tire specifications are commonly represented by a set of numbers, where the first number indicates the tire section width, and the second number indicates the rim diameter, both in inches. The letters or symbols in between have special meanings: "x" indicates a high-pressure tire; "R" and "Z" indicate radial tires; "-" indicates a low-pressure tire. 3. Ply rating: Ply rating refers to the nominal number of cord layers in the tire rubber, which is not completely consistent with the actual number of cord layers, and is an important indicator of tire strength. The ply rating is marked in Chinese.

What is the grace period for overdue vehicle inspection in 2021?

Vehicle annual inspections must not exceed the month of the registration date, meaning the inspection must be completed within the month of the valid registration date specified on the vehicle license. For example, if the registration date is June 10th, the latest inspection must be completed by June 30th. If the inspection is done on July 1st, it will be considered overdue, resulting in a fine and a deduction of 3 points. According to Article 47, Paragraph 4 of the "Motor Vehicle Registration Regulations," if a vehicle fails to undergo a safety technical inspection within the specified period, the public security traffic management department will issue a warning or impose a fine of up to 200 yuan. The inspection can only be conducted after the fine is paid. In other words, there is no grace period for overdue inspections—whether it's one month or one day past the deadline, it is considered a violation. The new regulations for vehicle inspection in 2021 are as follows: 1. Small and micro non-operational passenger vehicles (with fewer than 7 seats) enjoy a 6-year exemption from inspection. Starting from November 20, 2020, non-operational small and micro passenger vehicles with 7-9 seats (excluding minivans) are included in the exemption. For vehicles older than 6 years but less than 10 years, only two on-site inspections are required, at the 6th and 8th years. For vehicles older than 10 years, an annual inspection is required; for those older than 15 years, inspections are required every six months. 2. Operational passenger vehicles must be inspected annually within the first 5 years; after 5 years, inspections are required every 6 months. 3. Trucks and large and medium-sized non-operational passenger vehicles must be inspected annually within the first 10 years; after 10 years, inspections are required every 6 months. 4. Motorcycles must be inspected every 2 years within the first 4 years; after 4 years, an annual inspection is required.

Damage caused: It may lead to engine failure, electrical short circuits, damage to the driving system, and other impacts. 2. Effects: Vehicles submerged in water due to various reasons are affected by the water level and duration of submersion in terms of the extent of damage. Components prone to damage include circuits, electrical devices, precision instruments, thermal and sound insulation materials, and oils. High-value repairs involve the engine, transmission, computer system, audio and electrical equipment, wiring, airbags, steering system, etc. 3. Resale value: Moreover, it affects the car's future resale value. Generally, a water-damaged car sold second-hand will be priced at half the value of a car that hasn't been submerged in water.

What does dm-i mean?

BYD's dm-i refers to the dm-i super hybrid system, which is based on a high-capacity battery and a high-power motor. The vehicle relies on the high-power motor for driving during operation. Here is some extended information about DM-i: 1. Dual-platform policy: In April of last year, BYD officially announced that its DM models would adopt a dual-platform strategy of DM-p and DM-i, where 'p' stands for powerful, meaning strong power, and 'i' stands for intelligent, referring to smart, energy-saving, and efficient. One focuses on performance, while the other focuses on energy-saving and fuel efficiency. 2. Function: The main function of the gasoline engine is to charge the battery. It only directly drives the vehicle when more power is needed, and even then, it works in coordination with the motor to reduce the load. This hybrid technology is different from traditional hybrid technologies that rely on the engine, thus being more effective in reducing fuel consumption. 3. First model: The Song PLUS-DM-i is one of the first DM-i models released by BYD. It can perfectly balance power and fuel economy, making it more suitable for the current purchasing needs of most consumers.
