Abnormal noise after starting the car is most likely due to engine belt failure or loose engine mount bolts causing engine vibration and a buzzing sound. Here are the specific details: 1. If the engine mount bolts are loose, you can find and tighten the screws yourself. If it's an engine belt issue, first check the belt's tension. You can try pinching the drive belt with your fingers and then twisting it. Note that this operation should be performed when the engine is cool, and the twist angle should generally be less than 90 degrees; otherwise, adjustment is needed. 2. Sometimes, if the car belt is loose, it may produce a buzzing sound. You should take the car to a repair shop to check the belt and tighten it appropriately to see the effect. Regular belt maintenance is essential, and the tension should be moderate.

What to Do If You Lose Your Car Keys?

Only duplicate the key, do not replace the entire car lock or change the whole car lock. Here are some precautions regarding the use of car keys: 1. Do not place them with electronic devices: The magnetic field of electronic devices can interfere with the normal use of car keys, so try to avoid keeping car keys and electronic products together. 2. Do not replace the battery casually: Smart car keys have strict requirements for batteries. Using the wrong battery can easily burn out the circuit board inside the key, rendering it unusable. 3. Do not keep spare keys in the car: A car usually comes with 2-3 keys. Owners must not store all spare keys in the car to avoid being unable to use the spare keys if one key is lost.

How to Check How Many Cars Are Registered Under Your Name?

Here are the methods to check the vehicles registered under your name: 1. Download the Traffic Management 12123 app. Register with your phone number and ID card, enter the homepage, click on the 'Motor Vehicle' option, and you can see the cars registered under your name. 2. Bring your ID card to the Vehicle Management Office for inquiry. Ordinary citizens do not have the right to check vehicles registered under others' names, which means you cannot query vehicle numbers online using just an ID card and name. Currently, the national vehicle registration management is quite strict, allowing only specific authorities and individuals to query through specific strict procedures. The vehicle registration information archives network of the traffic department is only open internally and not publicly available online. Here are some related information: 1. Check vehicle information. Log in to the local traffic police website, select 'Motor Vehicle Information Query'. Enter the license plate number and engine identification code (VIN), then click 'Confirm'. All vehicle information will be displayed, including registration date, annual inspection period, etc. 2. Check violations. Many apps now can query motor vehicle violations, such as Baidu Maps, WeChat, and the 12123 Traffic Management app. You only need to know the license plate number, VIN, and the last six digits of the engine number to make a query.

What Kind of Driver's License is Required for Large-Displacement Motorcycles?

The national motorcycle driver's license is not related to engine displacement. Here are the relevant details about motorcycles: 1. Types of motorcycle driver's licenses: Currently, there are three types of motorcycle driver's licenses in China—F, E, and D. The F license only permits the operation of mopeds with an engine displacement below 50CC, but this type of license is rarely pursued. The E license allows the operation of any two-wheeled motorcycle without displacement restrictions. The D license permits the operation of all two-wheeled and three-wheeled motorcycles. Therefore, as long as you have an E license, you can ride any two-wheeled motorcycle, and there is no separate license required for large-displacement motorcycles. 2. Concept of motorcycles: Motorcycles, powered by gasoline engines and steered via handlebars to control the front wheel, are two- or three-wheeled vehicles known for their agility and speed. They are widely used for patrol, passenger and cargo transport, and also serve as sports equipment.
