The zizzing sound when accelerating may be caused by: noise from the fuel pump or related components, or possibly a damaged clutch release bearing. Solutions for the zizzing sound when accelerating are as follows: 1. Air leaks or looseness: To completely resolve the issue, check for air leaks in the engine's intake pipes, ensure the air filter is properly installed, identify the source of the sound, and check if the engine belt is aged, loose, or slipping. 2. The location of the zizzing sound matters: If it's on the right side of the engine, it's usually the generator belt; on the left side, it could be an issue with the throttle body; for the front wheels, the brake pads might be the main cause, often due to the brake caliper, with minor cases caused by partial jamming. This could result from damage to the brake caliper piston when it was pressed back during installation, leading to a certain degree of jamming.

Do I need a driver's license and ID card for vehicle inspection?

Vehicle annual inspection does not require a driver's license. You only need to bring your ID card, vehicle license, and the current year's compulsory traffic insurance policy. Below is relevant information: 1. Meaning of annual inspection: Vehicle annual inspection refers to a mandatory test for all vehicles that have obtained official license plates and vehicle licenses. It is equivalent to an annual physical examination for vehicles according to the "Technical Conditions for Motor Vehicle Operation Safety". 2. Exemption policy: Non-operational small private passenger vehicles with 7 seats or less (including 7 seats) are exempt from on-site inspection within 6 years. This means the vehicle is exempt from on-site testing, but the owner still needs to pass the exhaust emission test within the specified period (usually 2 years) and apply for the inspection qualification mark at the vehicle management office, motor vehicle registration service station, or traffic police squadron, then affix it to the upper right corner of the vehicle's front windshield.

Does Polishing Harm Car Paint?

Polishing does cause some degree of damage to car paint. Polishing refers to a surface finishing method that utilizes mechanical, chemical, or electrochemical actions to reduce surface roughness and achieve a smooth, glossy finish. It involves using polishing tools and abrasive particles or other polishing media to refine the workpiece surface. Although polishing will thin the paint layer, this doesn't mean car paint should never be polished. The paint can withstand a moderate amount of polishing. As a paint care method, polishing helps remove oxidized paint and various contaminants from the vehicle body, eliminates fine scratches, and addresses minor paint damage and stains.

What is the China VI Emission Standard Logo for Vehicles?

China VI emission standard logo for vehicles is marked as 'China VI'.

The China VIa phase was officially implemented in 2020, while the China VIb phase was officially implemented in 2023. To check a vehicle's emission standard, you can look at its environmental protection logo, which has clear markings on the back. Alternatively, you can visit the public inquiry platform of the Motor Vehicle Environmental Protection Website and enter the vehicle's relevant information to check. After the official implementation of the China VI emission standard, China IV and China V vehicles will not be restricted from driving in the short term. However, some regions may restrict China III vehicles from driving on the road, and vehicles that do not meet the emission standards will be forcibly scrapped.

What is ABS in cars?

ABS in cars stands for Anti-lock Braking System, which prevents loss of steering control and wheel skidding during emergency braking by ensuring the wheels do not lock up, allowing the car to steer while braking. ABS maintains directional stability during braking and is a safety control system with advantages such as anti-skid and anti-lock features. Vehicles without ABS may experience wheel lock-up during emergency braking, rendering the steering wheel immovable, significantly increasing the risk of severe accidents.
