You need to bring your personal ID card and copies of both sides of the ID card, the original and duplicate pages of the vehicle's registration certificate, the duplicate copy of compulsory traffic insurance, and the vehicle and vessel tax payment certificate. Inspection precautions: Exhaust emission test: Before the test, staff will conduct a preliminary inspection, mainly checking whether the engine number matches the registration certificate, briefly inspecting the appearance and condition of the vehicle, and then filling out the exhaust emission test form. During the test, the inspector will drive the vehicle onto the testing line. New cars generally pass easily, and once you receive a qualified exhaust emission test form, you can proceed to the window to pay and obtain the exhaust emission compliance label. External facility inspection: The testing line is responsible for inspecting brakes, headlights (high beam), chassis, etc. Once the vehicle is driven off the line, you will receive a computer-printed form detailing items such as brakes, lights, and horn.

Type: Most electric vehicles are equipped with lead-acid batteries, which are cost-effective and offer a good balance between price and performance. These batteries can be recharged and reused, hence the name "lead-acid battery." 2. Principle: The charging and discharging process of a lead-acid battery involves electrochemical reactions.

What are the impacts of replacing a car door on a new vehicle?

Since car doors are not considered wear-and-tear parts, any replacement would reasonably suggest prior collision damage, classifying the vehicle as accident-involved which depreciates its value. If sold as a used car, the price would be discounted. Below are key points about door replacement: 1. Cost: Replacement costs vary by model and depend on whether using OEM or aftermarket parts. 2. Effects: Post-replacement, the vehicle's sound insulation may degrade, and sealing performance could deteriorate.

How to Make Blurry Car Glass Clear Again?

Here are methods to restore clarity to blurry car glass: 1. Apply anti-fog spray: When using a defogger, simply spray it evenly on the glass surface and wipe clean with a dry towel. This leaves a protective film that alters water molecules' surface tension, causing fog droplets to coalesce into larger beads that don't obstruct vision. This method also works for other car glass, especially side mirrors. 2. DIY detergent defogger: Mix dish soap and water in a 1:6 ratio, spray and wipe before driving. The effect matches commercial defoggers though with slightly shorter duration. Alternatives like soapy water, hand soap, or laundry detergent are less effective than dish soap.
