The term 'how many oils' for a car refers to the fuel consumption in liters per 100 kilometers. For example, if a car is said to consume '7 oils,' it means the car uses 7 liters of fuel per 100 kilometers. This can be simply calculated by the amount of fuel added and the odometer reading, or directly displayed by the car's onboard computer. Below is an introduction related to fuel consumption per 100 kilometers: 1. Fuel consumption per 100 kilometers is an indicator for vehicles. Standardized fuel consumption statistics are a formatted specification. The slower the vehicle travels within the economical speed range, the higher the fuel consumption per 100 kilometers. Conversely, exceeding the economical speed has the opposite effect. Since most vehicles approach their economical speed at around 90 km/h, the theoretical fuel consumption figures published are usually based on 90 km/h. 2. If the engine speed is maintained within the same safe range, regardless of the vehicle's speed, the hourly fuel consumption remains the same. For calculating fuel consumption on highways or in engineering transport, the first two specifications are not suitable, and hourly fuel consumption is more accurate.

Can You Still Drive When the Tire Pressure Yellow Light Is On?

You can still drive when the tire pressure yellow light is on. There are two colors for indicator lights on the dashboard: yellow reminds the driver that there is a minor issue with the vehicle, but it does not affect driving, and you can proceed to the nearest repair shop for inspection; red indicates a serious fault, and the vehicle must not continue driving—immediately stop and check for repairs. Tire pressure monitoring light on: The tire pressure monitoring indicator is a yellow symbol, an irregular circle with no seal on top and four small spikes at the bottom, containing an exclamation mark inside. The tire pressure monitoring light turning on indicates abnormal tire pressure. Abnormal tire pressure is generally caused by one of the following three reasons: Abnormal tire pressure: Usually, an alert is triggered when the pressure is below 1.8 bar or above 3.0 bar. In this case, the tires need to be checked and the pressure adjusted. Tire pressure monitoring not reset: After inflating the tires, if the tire pressure is not reset in time, the system will still record the previous data, causing the tire pressure monitoring light to turn on. Simply reset the tire pressure to resolve this issue. Damaged tire pressure sensor: The tire pressure sensor is used to monitor tire pressure and is directly installed inside the tire, connected to the tire inflation valve. If the sensor is damaged during driving (e.g., by hitting a curb), the tire pressure warning light will also turn on. For sensor damage, the only solution is to replace it with a new component.

Is It Illegal to Modify Motorcycle Mirrors?

Modifying motorcycle mirrors is an illegal act. Article 16 of the "Regulations on the Registration of Motor Vehicles" issued by the Ministry of Public Security clearly stipulates the following regarding motorcycle modifications: Installation of front and rear anti-collision devices on small and micro passenger vehicles; Installation of windshields, water tanks, toolboxes, spare tire racks, etc., on freight motor vehicles; Adding interior decorations to motor vehicles. These three scenarios are permitted. Any other modifications, such as changing the brand, model, or engine type of the motor vehicle, or altering the registered appearance and technical data of the motor vehicle, are considered illegal modifications. The legal modification scope for motorcycles is as follows: The legal modification scope for motorcycles is relatively limited, allowing only minor changes. In terms of performance modifications, motorcycles can be equipped with high-end spark plugs, anti-fall bendable aluminum alloy clutch and brake levers, explosion-proof and leak-proof brake lines, aluminum alloy brake fluid reservoirs, high-performance wear-resistant brake pads, etc. For appearance modifications, permissible changes include adding handlebar guards, license plate frames (without obscuring the license plate), decorative lights, and mirrors of the same size. Color changes are also allowed, but flashy multi-color combinations are prohibited; generally, solid colors are acceptable. Due to their small size, the legal modification scope for motorcycles is quite limited, essentially allowing only minor adjustments while maintaining the basic original appearance.

What Provides Power to a Car?

Car power supply is provided by the car battery and alternator. The alternator is responsible for charging the battery, keeping it in a fully charged state over time. Both the battery and alternator supply power to all the electrical components in the vehicle. Below is an extended introduction: Specific usage explanation: The car is equipped with a generating device. When the car engine runs, it drives the alternator, which then charges the battery. Simultaneously, the engine operation drives the air conditioning compressor, which cools the air before it is blown out by the fan. Car lights, fans, audio systems, navigation, ignition switches, car dashboards, and other low-power consumption devices use power from the battery. High-power consumption devices like the air conditioning cannot be supported by the battery alone. All switches and devices in the car use power from the battery.
