Drive the vehicle into the work area and park it correctly. Extend the lift support pads under the vehicle to ensure good contact between the support pads and the vehicle's body support points. Remove the rain guard and wipers, then take off the tire. Place the removed tire steadily on the ground with the outer side facing up, and put the tire bolts on the tool cart. Gradually remove the connecting rod bolts, brake fluid line bolts, and ABS sensor line bolts. After removing the bolts, organize them neatly on the tool cart. Install the new shock absorber assembly onto the steering knuckle assembly, then assemble both the shock absorber assembly and steering knuckle assembly back onto the vehicle.

Will driving until the fuel tank warning light comes on damage the car?

Driving until the fuel tank warning light comes on can indeed damage the car. Here are the specific impacts of refueling only after the warning light appears: 1. Impaired Evaporation: The fuel level indicator typically relies on feedback from the fuel level sensor or manual checks, so whether it's 'fuel' or another substance like 'water,' it only displays a 'scale' and doesn't distinguish between them. Even high-quality fuel contains some moisture. Prolonged use of the vehicle under these conditions can lead to moisture accumulation due to impaired evaporation (sealed environment), with water settling at the bottom and fuel on top. This can make the indicator appear 'correct' while actually risking sudden engine stalling. 2. Fuel Pump Issues: When the fuel level reaches the 'warning' line, even if the fuel itself is fine, road bumps, turns, and other driving conditions can cause the fuel to slosh, preventing the fuel pump from pumping fuel efficiently. This can result in engine stuttering, jerking, or even stalling due to insufficient fuel supply. 3. Premature Wear: Due to the design of certain car models, the fuel pump relies on fuel for cooling. If the fuel level drops to the minimum mark, the fuel pump may become exposed above the fuel surface, leading to inadequate cooling. This can accelerate internal wear, cause overheating, short circuits, or even burn out the pump.

What are the reasons for the sunshade curtain of BYD Tang's sunroof falling off?

BYD Tang sunroof sunshade curtain falls off due to assembly issues of the sunshade curtain, improper maintenance of the sunroof guide rails, and problems with the sunshade curtain roller spring. Sunshade curtain assembly issues: The original sunshade curtain used in the vehicle is of relatively average quality, and improper assembly makes it more prone to falling off during daily use. This cannot be fixed on your own as it requires removing the vehicle's roof lining. You can directly go to the after-sales service for a free claim to replace the sunshade curtain. Improper maintenance of sunroof guide rails: Due to the vehicle's long service life, the sunroof guide rails accumulate a lot of dust. Without regular cleaning and lack of lubricant over time, the friction in the sunroof guide rails increases, causing jamming during operation and leading to the sunshade curtain detaching and falling off. Therefore, regular cleaning and maintenance of the sunroof guide rails can effectively prevent such faults. Sunshade curtain roller spring issues: When the sunshade curtain roller spring in the vehicle shows reduced rebound capability, prolonged use can cause stuttering during operation, leading to issues like the sunshade curtain not retracting properly or falling off. During the warranty period, you can go to the after-sales service for free repairs.

Can Someone Other Than the Owner Handle the Vehicle Inspection?

Vehicle inspection can be handled by someone other than the owner, as long as the authorized person presents a delegation certificate from the owner and the relevant vehicle documents to conduct the annual inspection on behalf of the owner. Before the inspection, it is necessary to prepare all required documents and materials, including the ID card, driver's license, vehicle registration certificate, and proof of compulsory traffic insurance. When someone else handles the inspection on behalf of the owner, the authorized person's ID card is also required. Inspection Methods: The first method is through a mobile app, which can be used for motor vehicles exempt from on-site inspection. The second method is through the vehicle management office or traffic management authorities, which requires an on-site inspection at a vehicle testing facility. According to new traffic regulations, non-commercial passenger cars, including non-commercial small and micro passenger vehicles, are eligible for a six-year exemption from on-site inspection. However, note that an inspection label must be applied for every two years from the traffic management authorities; otherwise, it will be considered as overdue inspection. SUVs and MPVs with seven or more seats are not eligible for the six-year exemption policy. According to the regulations on the registration and use of motor vehicles, the owner can apply for the inspection compliance label at the local vehicle management office up to three months before the expiration of the current inspection period.
