Safety technical inspection exceeding the validity period means that the vehicle inspection validity period has passed without timely annual inspection. After the vehicle inspection time expires, it is necessary to go to the vehicle management office as soon as possible to handle the annual inspection. For vehicles that exceed the annual inspection period by less than one year, if the annual inspection procedures are not completed at the vehicle management department, penalties will be imposed. The following is relevant information: 1. Expiration of validity period: When the inspection validity period on the vehicle's driving license expires, the owner should go to the inspection station as soon as possible for the annual inspection. According to the "Motor Vehicle Registration Regulations" (Ministry of Public Security Order No. 102), the owner of a motor vehicle can apply for inspection at the vehicle management office of the registration location within three months before the expiration of the motor vehicle inspection validity period. 2. Consequences of overdue annual inspection: The consequences of overdue annual inspection, in addition to being fined for failing to provide a valid vehicle inspection certificate, also include obstacles to insurance claims after accidents. Therefore, the vehicle must be sent for inspection before the inspection validity period expires.

Once my vehicle's safety technical inspection was overdue, meaning the safety check time had passed without a re-inspection. I was stopped and fined that time, which was really frustrating. It means the vehicle's condition doesn't meet the national requirements and isn't legally allowed on the road. There are many risks: aging parts could cause brake or light failures, and insurance won't cover accidents on the road; you might also get points deducted or have your vehicle impounded. I recommend setting a phone reminder to check regularly and go to the inspection station promptly when it's due. Don't be like me, trying to save money until you get fined—handling it on time saves trouble and safety issues, which is better for everyone.

Can I add 1 liter of oil when the Audi Q5 oil level warning light comes on?

Audi Q5 oil level warning light prompts to add 1 liter of oil is acceptable, but it is necessary to refuel as soon as possible. The following are the effects of adding too much oil and the introduction of oil function: Effects of adding too much oil: Adding too much oil will affect the work of the three-way catalytic converter, and the high oil pressure will cause certain damage to the seals. It will also cause violent agitation of the crankshaft and connecting rod big end when the engine is working, which not only increases the internal power loss of the engine, but also increases the oil splashed on the cylinder wall, resulting in the phenomenon of burning and discharging oil. Function of oil: The engine is the heart of the car. There are many metal surfaces that rub against each other in the engine. These parts move at high speed and in a poor environment, and the working temperature can reach 400 to 600 degrees. Under such harsh working conditions, only qualified lubricating oil can reduce the wear of engine parts and extend their service life.
