The reasons for abnormal noises from the shock absorber when going over speed bumps are as follows: 1. Dust and debris entering the vehicle interior: The dust cover's function is to keep dust and other impurities out. When the dust cover is damaged, a lot of dust can enter the vehicle, causing the car to make abnormal noises when passing over speed bumps. 2. Shock absorber malfunction: If the car's shock absorber fails, it cannot rebound properly when driving over uneven road sections. 3. Loose belt in the engine: Under normal circumstances, the belt in the engine should not be loose, but prolonged jolting can cause the belt to loosen. Once the belt becomes loose, the car will make abnormal noises when driving over speed bumps. 4. Suspension failure: Any issue with the car's suspension components can cause the shock absorber to make noises.

Is Maintenance Required at 10,000 Kilometers?

Whether maintenance is required at 10,000 kilometers depends on the vehicle model. Some cars require maintenance every 5,000 kilometers, some every 500 kilometers, and others every 15,000 kilometers. The interval for maintenance, whether measured in kilometers or time, depends on the car's operating environment, the owner's driving habits, and the type of engine oil used. Engine oil needs to be replaced regularly as its lubricating properties degrade over time, which can lead to insufficient lubrication in the engine. Even if the car is driven infrequently, the engine oil should still be replaced periodically because prolonged storage in the engine oil pan can cause oxidation and deterioration.

Has the biannual vehicle inspection been canceled?

The biannual vehicle inspection has not been canceled. If a vehicle has been in use for more than fifteen years, it needs to be inspected every six months; if it has been in use for more than twenty years, it requires inspection every three months. During the inspection, the exterior, lighting system, braking system, chassis, and exhaust emissions are checked. If any test fails, the vehicle inspection is not passed. Vehicle annual inspection refers to a mandatory test for all vehicles that have obtained official license plates and registration certificates, equivalent to an annual physical examination for vehicles based on the technical conditions for safe operation of motor vehicles. Vehicle annual inspections can promptly eliminate potential safety hazards, encourage better vehicle maintenance, and reduce the occurrence of traffic accidents.

Can winter tires be used all year round?

Winter tires can be used all year round, but it is not recommended to use them throughout the year. There are two main drawbacks to using winter tires all year round: 1. The tires will wear out severely, wasting the tires; 2. Fuel consumption will increase. Winter tires have better shock absorption performance than regular tires, meaning that using winter tires can improve ride comfort. Compared to regular tires, winter tires use a special formula to increase friction with snow and ice surfaces, with the advantage of improving traction and safety on snowy and icy roads. The tread material of winter tires is softer, and the carefully formulated silica-mixed rubber compound allows for closer contact with smooth ice surfaces, generating greater friction than all-season tires, significantly enhancing the vehicle's handling and safety on slippery ice surfaces.

What to do if the wheel hub of the Qashqai is scratched?

If the wheel hub of the new Qashqai is scratched, it needs to be analyzed based on the actual situation. As long as it is not very serious and does not affect normal driving, it can be completely ignored; however, if the scratch is very severe, the wheel hub can only be repaired or directly replaced. Whether to repair or replace it needs to be determined after a professional inspection. In most cases, the new Qashqai is an urban driving and control SUV launched by Dongfeng Nissan, with dimensions of 4315mm in length, 1783mm in width, and 1606mm in height, and a wheelbase of 2630mm. The exterior of the new Qashqai adopts Nissan's new V-Motion design language, featuring a new-style 'V' grille on the front face, accented with chrome trim, and redesigned headlights on both sides, which are slender in shape and equipped with lenses inside.

How Many Cars Can One Person Buy Under Their Name?

There is no explicit regulation on how many cars one person can purchase under their name; individuals can own as many cars as they wish. However, in cities with license plate restrictions, if one does not have a license plate quota, they cannot register a newly purchased car. Most people only have one car registered under their name. Some cities implement license plate restriction policies to control the growth rate of motor vehicle ownership, as rapid increases can lead to traffic congestion. When registering a new vehicle, any existing cars under the owner's name must have passed annual inspections and have all traffic violations resolved, with no illegal activities. If any car has not been inspected for three years and has not been deregistered, the new car cannot be registered. The taxes for purchasing a new car under an individual's name are not affected by the number of existing vehicles and are charged at the standard rate.

What to Do If the Crankshaft Bolt Is Too Tight?

The solutions for a crankshaft bolt that is too tight are: 1. Pour a little oil on the bolt and then turn it counterclockwise; 2. First heat the bolt with a conductive material, let it cool, and then turn it; 3. Dip a screwdriver in a little 502 glue, bond it to the bolt, and then turn it open; 4. Spray rust remover on the bolt to remove rust before loosening it. The crankshaft is an important component in the engine, bearing the force transmitted by the connecting rod and converting it into torque, which is output through the crankshaft to drive other engine accessories. The crankshaft is subjected to the combined effects of centrifugal force from rotating masses, periodically varying gas inertial forces, and reciprocating inertial forces, causing it to bear bending and torsional loads.
