The teapot symbol on the car dashboard refers to the engine oil warning light. The reasons for its illumination are: 1. Insufficient engine oil level; 2. Engine temperature is too high; 3. Oil pump wear causing abnormal operation; 4. Improper internal engine coordination; 5. Excessive carbon deposits clogging the oil filter; 6. Pressure relief valve set pressure is too low or improperly adjusted. Engine oil, also known as engine lubricant, is composed of base oil and additives. It serves to lubricate and reduce friction, assist in cooling, seal against leaks, prevent rust and corrosion, and provide shock absorption for the engine. The method to reset the oil light is: 1. Turn off the ignition switch and hold the set button; 2. Turn on the ignition switch and press the button on the left side of the instrument panel.

Can the deposit for car booking be refunded?

Deposit can be refunded, but earnest money cannot. Here are the relevant introductions: Deposit: Deposit does not have the nature of earnest money. It is only a unilateral act and does not have obvious guarantee characteristics. If the party paying the deposit claims the right of earnest money, the People's Court will not support it. Generally, the payment of a deposit is regarded as the payment of an advance payment. When one party to the contract who pays or receives the deposit fails to perform the contractual obligations, there will be no consequence of losing or double refunding the advance payment. The deposit can only be used as compensation for damages. Earnest Money: Earnest money refers to a certain amount of money agreed by the parties to be paid by one party to the other as a guarantee for the creditor's rights. It is a legal guarantee method aimed at urging the debtor to perform the debt and ensuring the realization of the creditor's rights. When signing the contract, the earnest money must be agreed in writing, and the amount and delivery period of the earnest money must also be agreed. If the party paying the earnest money fails to perform the debt, it has no right to require the other party to refund the earnest money; if the party receiving the earnest money fails to perform the debt, it must double refund the debt to the other party. After the debtor performs the debt, the earnest money shall be deducted from the price or returned according to the agreement.

What are the differences between Shanghai license plates Hu A, Hu B, Hu C, Hu D, and Hu H?

There are differences in numbering time and driving areas. Below are the relevant introductions: Numbering time: For license plates with the same driving area, the later the letter appears in the alphabet, the later the numbering time. That is, the order from earliest to latest in numbering time is Hu A, Hu B, Hu C, Hu D. Driving areas: Hu A, Hu B, and Hu D license plates are for urban areas of Shanghai; Hu C license plates are for suburban areas and cannot enter the Outer Ring Road. License plate: The first character of a license plate is a Chinese character representing the provincial-level administrative region where the vehicle is registered, which is the abbreviation of provinces, municipalities directly under the central government, and autonomous regions; the second character is an English letter representing the prefecture-level administrative region where the vehicle is registered, which is the letter code for prefecture-level cities, regions, autonomous prefectures, and leagues. Generally, the ranking is determined by the provincial vehicle management office based on the status of each prefecture-level administrative region (the letter 'A' is the code for the capital, provincial capital, or central urban area of a municipality directly under the central government, and the subsequent letters are not ranked in any particular order).

Can I Get a Refund Plus Triple Compensation for Buying a Flood-Damaged Car?

You can demand a refund plus triple compensation for a second-hand flood-damaged car. Here are the relevant details: Evidence: If you request a refund plus triple compensation after purchasing a flood-damaged car, you need to provide evidence. This includes preparing the signed sales contract, payment receipts, and appraisal results proving the car is a second-hand flood-damaged vehicle. The prerequisite for demanding a refund plus triple compensation is being unaware of the car's condition, meaning the seller engaged in fraudulent behavior, which provides a legal basis. Regulations: According to the provisions of the "Contract Law," if a business operator commits fraud in providing goods or services, they must, at the consumer's request, increase the compensation for the losses suffered. The increased compensation amount is three times the price of the goods or the cost of the services. If the business operator knowingly provides goods or services with defects, resulting in the death or severe health damage of the consumer or other victims, the victim has the right to demand compensation as stipulated by relevant laws. Sellers have the obligation and responsibility to inform buyers about the true condition of the vehicle being purchased. Therefore, if you unknowingly buy a second-hand flood-damaged car and have the necessary evidence, you can demand compensation from the seller, who should comply with the relevant legal provisions for compensation.
