Here are the materials required for used car transfer: For the seller: Original and photocopy of ID card, original and photocopy of vehicle registration certificate, original and photocopy of driving license, original and photocopy of purchase invoice, and vehicle purchase tax payment certificate. For the buyer: One original ID card and three photocopies, motor vehicle registration/transfer/cancellation form, transfer application form. In purchase-restricted areas, one original and three photocopies of personal passenger car quota certificate are required. If the buyer is a non-local resident, a temporary residence permit valid for a certain period is needed. Here is more information about used car transfer: The used vehicle transfer process is an essential procedure in buying and selling used cars. Vehicle transfer essentially means changing the vehicle's ownership. Not transferring the vehicle will cause inconvenience to both the buyer and seller.

Last month I just helped a friend complete a used car transfer, and there were quite a few things to prepare for this matter. Both the buyer and seller need to bring their original ID cards and copies. The original owner must have the vehicle registration certificate (green book), license plate registration document, and license plates. The vehicle also needs to be driven to the DMV for an on-site inspection and photo. By the way, remember to check in advance if there are any outstanding traffic violations, otherwise the transfer will be blocked. Nowadays, many places require both parties to be present in person to sign. If you authorize someone else to handle it, you also need to prepare a power of attorney and the agent's ID card. It's best to have a copy of the sales contract ready, as some DMVs will ask for it. My friend once encountered a minor issue where the engine number was too blurry to read clearly, so I recommend cleaning the VIN and engine number locations in advance.

Does a new car need maintenance?

New cars do not necessarily require maintenance. Although the first maintenance for many models is scheduled at three months or 5,000 kilometers, some models have their first maintenance scheduled at six months. Relevant maintenance information is written in the car's manual, and maintenance should be performed according to the time and mileage specified in the manual. Here are more related details: Notes: 1. It is worth noting that it is best to perform the first maintenance within the specified time for a new car, as some 4S stores may not allow owners to enjoy the free first maintenance benefit if it is not done within the specified period. Additionally, the engine oil is added at the moment the car leaves the factory, and its shelf life is generally about six months. The car takes about 2-3 months from leaving the factory to being sold to the customer, and then the customer drives it for another three months, so the oil will almost need to be replaced. 2. Furthermore, new cars also have a break-in period. During this period, the friction between parts will leave some fine iron particles in the lubricant. If not replaced in time, these particles may affect the car's components over time.

What car brand has an inverted 7 logo?

The inverted 7 logo represents Luxgen and Lexus. Luxgen is the transliteration of 'LUXGEN', which is a fusion of the English words 'Luxury' and 'Genius'. Below is an introduction to Lexus cars: 1. Lexus is a brand under Japan's Toyota Motor Corporation. Lexus (English: Lexus; Japanese: レクサス) was established in 1983 and is a globally renowned luxury car brand under the Toyota Group. 2. Performance: The Lexus L-finesse design aesthetic, combined with F1 aerodynamic testing, gives the IS F a dynamic and sporty style. Two raised lines extend downward from the base of the A-pillar, glide past the sides of the grille, and outline the contours of the large front air intakes on the front bumper. The high waistline design running through the body, the elongated cooling vents behind the front wheel arches, and the four exhaust pipes at the rear all reveal the high-performance essence of the IS F.

What are the requirements for upgrading from C2 to B1 license?

You can apply for a B1 license upgrade if you have held the license for three years and have not accumulated 12 penalty points in the last three years. After completing the required training and passing the three driving tests (Subjects 1, 2, and 3), you will obtain the B1 license. Below is relevant information about license upgrading: 1. Upgrade matters: To upgrade your license, you must have a local household registration in the area where you wish to upgrade, and the license issuing authority must also be local. If you do not meet these conditions, the upgrade will not be processed, and you will need to transfer your license relationship. All types of driving licenses require the completion of the probationary period before they can be upgraded. 2. Scoring cycle: After adding a new driving category and obtaining a new license, the validity period of the license will not be recalculated. Additionally, the scoring cycle always starts from the original license's initial issuance date. It is important to note that during the probationary period after the upgrade, if your license accumulates 12 penalty points, the probationary driving qualification for the new category will be revoked.

Can a Turbocharged Car Be Turned Off Immediately?

Turbocharged cars should not be turned off immediately. Reasons for stalling: Automatic transmission models: Automatic transmission models are less likely to stall, while manual transmission models may stall frequently due to poor driving skills. However, it is not impossible for automatic transmission cars to stall, mainly due to the use of low-quality fuel leading to engine carbon buildup and stalling. Precautions: For automatic transmission cars stalling, the main reason is the use of low-quality fuel. First, refuel at reputable, larger gas stations with higher-grade fuel, such as using 97-octane gasoline. Although it is more expensive, it ensures a longer lifespan for your car and better performance while driving.

Should You Shift to Neutral at Traffic Lights in an Automatic Car?

When waiting at traffic lights in an automatic car, it is advisable to shift to neutral (N) and engage the handbrake for added safety. Using N gear with the handbrake can also save fuel, as the passive wheel in the transmission is in an idling state, thereby reducing fuel consumption. Avoid shifting to P (Park) while waiting at traffic lights, as shifting from P to D (Drive) may cause the car to reverse, potentially disrupting traffic behind you and increasing the risk of a rear-end collision, for which you may bear some responsibility. Similarly, keeping the car in D gear with the foot brake applied is not ideal, as the fixed connection between the engine and the transmission's passive wheel creates a counterforce on the driving wheel, increasing the engine's load. This can be understood as hindering the engine's operation, prompting the ECU to increase fuel injection, leading to higher fuel consumption. Shifting Precautions: Do not press the accelerator pedal while shifting gears; avoid immediately pressing the accelerator pedal hard after shifting; the engine can only be started in P or N gear; to move the gear lever out of P, the brake must be pressed; do not shift to N while driving to coast; never shift to P while the car is moving; when changing direction between D and R, ensure the car is completely stopped before shifting; placing the gear in N while driving prevents normal fuel supply for lubrication, which can raise the temperature of internal transmission components and cause damage.

What are the types of lubricating oil?

Lubricating oil models are classified as: 0W, 5W, 10W, 15W, 20W, 25W. Low ignition energy causing vibration: When the engine temperature is too low, both fuel and lubricating oil are cold. During cold starts, a richer air-fuel mixture is required, which in turn demands higher ignition energy. Excessive spark plug gap or aging ignition coils and high-voltage coils can reduce ignition energy, leading to vehicle vibration. Incorrect air-fuel mixture ratio causing vibration: During cold starts, significant errors in signals from certain engine sensors or some sensors can lead to ECU miscalculations. This results in inaccuracies in fuel injection timing and ignition timing control, causing engine vibration. Uneven cylinder conditions causing engine vibration: In multi-cylinder engines, large variations in ignition energy among cylinders, along with differing degrees of piston and piston ring wear leading to inconsistent compression ratios, can cause uneven engine power output and result in engine vibration.
