The emission standard for 2004 vehicles is China II (National Standard II). There are several ways to check your vehicle's emission standard: through the environmental protection label issued during vehicle inspection, by inquiring at the vehicle management office, or by checking the vehicle model catalog information on the Motor Vehicle Environmental Protection Network. Below are the methods to check your vehicle's emission standard: 1. The simplest and most direct way is to look at the vehicle's environmental protection label, which has clear markings on the back (however, environmental protection labels have not been issued since 2017). 2. Log in to the website of the Motor Vehicle Exhaust Pollution Supervision and Management Center to inquire. 3. Bring the original or a copy of the vehicle registration certificate to the vehicle management office for inquiry (this is the most accurate method). 4. For new vehicles, you can check the vehicle's factory certificate. However, the vehicle certificate is usually kept at the vehicle management office. Therefore, when purchasing a new car, it is recommended to make a copy for future reference. 5. Make a rough judgment based on the year the vehicle was registered.

Why does the car wiper become blurry for a few seconds and then clear again?

It may be due to poor contact angle between the wiper and the windshield, requiring wiper replacement; or the windshield washer fluid may be impure, necessitating a change of fluid; or the windshield may need thorough cleaning as there could be oil residue on the surface. Here are some wiper maintenance guidelines: 1. When using the wiper to remove dust from the windshield on sunny days, always spray windshield washer fluid and avoid dry wiping. 2. If there are other stubborn or hard contaminants on the glass, clean them manually. These substances can easily damage the wiper blade, leading to ineffective wiping. In severe cases, the wiper motor may also be affected. 3. When lifting the wiper blade during car washing or daily cleaning, hold the "backbone" of the wiper blade and gently return it to its place. Do not snap the blade back abruptly. 4. In winter, use an ice scraper to remove ice chips from the windshield surface first to avoid putting extra strain on the wiper.

What to Do When the Light Turns Red Mid-Left Turn?

During a left turn, if the traffic light turns red halfway through, it is not considered running a red light. The driver can continue the left turn until reaching the normal driving path. Below is more information about the left-turn waiting area for vehicles: 1. Introduction: The "left-turn waiting area" refers to the zone where vehicles in the left-turn lane must advance when the straight-through signal for the same direction turns green, waiting for the signal to change before making the turn. The left-turn lane is extended with several meters of white dashed lines connecting to the middle of the road, marking the "left-turn waiting area." 2. Notes: The "left-turn waiting area" is exclusively for left-turning vehicles. When the straight-through signal for the same direction is green, even if the left-turn signal is red, left-turning vehicles are allowed to enter the "left-turn waiting area" at the intersection and wait until the left-turn signal turns green to proceed through the intersection without penalty.

What Causes the Clicking and Shaking During Hard Braking?

Generally speaking, the reasons for clicking and shaking during hard braking are as follows: 1. Sharp screeching sound when braking: When a new car produces a sharp screeching sound during braking, many car owners assume it must be a quality issue with the vehicle. However, this is not necessarily the case. New brake pads and rotors require a break-in period. When braking, if the pads happen to grind against a hard spot (due to the material of the brake pads), this noise can occur, which is completely normal. 2. Dull thudding sound when braking: This situation is often caused by a malfunctioning brake caliper. Issues such as worn slide pins or detached spring plates can prevent the caliper from functioning properly. 3. Hissing or squealing sound when braking: This type of noise is harder to diagnose, as it could stem from various issues with the caliper, brake disc, or brake pads. If the noise persists, the first step is to check for a dragging brake. A caliper that fails to retract properly can cause prolonged friction between the disc and pad, leading to abnormal noises under certain conditions.

What are the differences between 20 and 30 engine oils?

The differences between 20 and 30 engine oils are as follows: 1. Different viscosity: The main difference between 5W-20 and 5W-30 engine oils lies in their high-temperature viscosity. The difference between 5W-20 and 5W-30 is only in the latter number. 5W-20 has lower viscosity (viscosity between 5.6-9.3), which is relatively more fuel-efficient and provides a lighter driving feel, while 5W-30 has higher viscosity (viscosity between 9.3-12.5). 2. Different cold-start performance: The 5W in 5W-30 indicates the cold-start performance of the engine oil. Using engine oil with a lower value before the W makes it easier to start the engine in cold weather. 3. Different upper and lower limit values: The upper and lower limit values for 20 engine oil are 5.6-9.3, while those for 30 engine oil are 9.3-12.5.

How Much Difference Between MIIT Comprehensive Fuel Consumption and Actual Fuel Consumption?

How much difference between MIIT comprehensive fuel consumption and actual fuel consumption is considered based on comprehensive factors. The following is a brief explanation of the difference between MIIT fuel consumption and actual fuel consumption: 1. Based on actual road conditions. MIIT fuel consumption is the actual value obtained under very ideal road conditions. To achieve MIIT fuel consumption, vehicles can basically only achieve it on uncongested highways. 2. Based on factors such as engine displacement, transmission tuning, and vehicle weight. Factors such as engine displacement, transmission tuning, and vehicle weight are considered in the answer. Higher engine displacement, heavier vehicle weight, and poor road conditions will result in much higher actual fuel consumption, so this needs to be answered based on different levels, vehicle series, etc. Summary: From these perspectives, the MIIT fuel consumption of a car can be used as a reference when purchasing a vehicle, because it is generally difficult for ordinary vehicles to achieve the MIIT fuel consumption value.

Is the Highway Free on Mid-Autumn Festival?

Highways are not free during the Mid-Autumn Festival. According to the "National Annual Holidays and Memorial Days Regulations," the free passage period applies to four national statutory holidays: the Spring Festival, Qingming Festival, Labor Day, and National Day. During these periods, small passenger vehicles with seven seats or fewer (including seven seats) can enjoy free passage, but the Mid-Autumn Festival is not included in the free passage policy. Below are the main features of the holiday highway free passage policy: 1. The main policies are largely the same: The local rules for holiday highway free passage that have been issued almost uniformly follow the standards set by the Ministry of Transport's emergency notice. All provinces and cities clearly specify that the vehicles eligible for free passage are passenger vehicles with seven seats or fewer (including seven seats) traveling on toll roads, as verified by the vehicle registration certificate. Additionally, most of the local implementation rules issued so far generally use the "exit time" as the final checkpoint to determine whether the vehicle qualifies for free passage. 2. Some details vary by region: Due to differences in the proportion of small vehicles and the operational conditions of highways and bridges in different regions, the holiday highway free passage rules have sparked widespread public discussion and speculation. In the batch of rules issued yesterday, each region reflected a "tailored to local conditions" standard. 3. Operators are concerned about traffic exceeding capacity.
