I've driven the Mercedes-Benz C180L several times, and the original tires are usually the Continental PremiumContact 6 series, size 205/55 R16. It drives quite steadily, with low noise and good comfort for daily city commuting, especially suitable for medium-speed driving. If the tires wear out too quickly, it might be due to driving habits or road conditions. Regularly checking tire pressure and tread depth can extend their lifespan. Additionally, different model years may come with different brands, such as some being equipped with Michelin Primacy 4, but most have this configuration. I suggest new owners first check the label on the door frame to confirm the model before rushing to replace them; generally, they can last around 50,000 kilometers. In winter, it's also necessary to consider switching to winter tires, and having a set of anti-slip tires is safer. In short, understanding the original tires can help you save money and drive with peace of mind.

What Does the Whole Vehicle Warranty Include?

Whole vehicle warranty means that various components will be replaced free of charge if they are confirmed to be damaged due to quality issues rather than human factors, such as issues with the speedometer or air conditioning. The data for the whole vehicle warranty comes from the warranty period or mileage announced by the manufacturer for the vehicle. Generally, it is two years or 60,000 kilometers, but some manufacturers may offer warranty mechanisms that exceed these durations and mileages. Below is the difference between whole vehicle warranty and warranty for all components at the same time: Whole vehicle warranty: Whether domestically or internationally, whole vehicle warranty does not truly mean that all components of the vehicle enjoy the same warranty service. Instead, it is divided by component. Concept of whole vehicle warranty: Different components have different warranty periods, so the exact expression of whole vehicle warranty is the warranty period of "the component with the longest warranty period in the whole vehicle." Some manufacturers' extended warranties are actually limited to a few components that are not easily damaged.

Second digit: Demerit points classification code, indicating the category of demerit points for the traffic violation. Third, fourth, and fifth digits: Sequential code, indicating the order of the violation within the same behavior classification. For example: 13035—"1" indicates a motor vehicle violation, the second digit "3" indicates 3 demerit points, and "035" indicates the fifth item under the third category of 3-point violations. Behavior classification code explanation: Codes starting with "1" indicate motor vehicle violations, e.g., 1003. Codes starting with "2" indicate non-motor vehicle violations, e.g., 2002.
