CarPlay is an in-car system released by Apple, which seamlessly integrates with the car's dashboard system through the official iOS 7.1 system. Here is relevant information: 1. The role of CarPlay: CarPlay is not an in-car system that runs iOS or iOS applications. Its function is to build a bridge between iPhone applications and the car's digital system, making it easier to control devices. CarPlay allows drivers to use their iPhones in the car with minimal distraction. 2. How it works: The system operates by connecting the iPhone to the car via USB, after which both devices immediately establish a connection. Users can then access various iPhone functions without having to touch or look at the phone screen, allowing them to focus their attention and gaze on the road. This method of operation makes driving safer and more convenient.

What Are the Brands for Automotive Exhaust Modification?

Automotive exhaust modification brands include Manga Exhaust from the USA, FGK and HKS from Japan, Eisenmann, REMUS from Europe, and domestic brands like CGW, JDC, RES, as well as IPE, Stone, and Wolf Exhaust from Taiwan. Generally, modifications to the exterior of the exhaust pipe do not require registration with the vehicle management office. The relevant introduction to automotive modifications is as follows: Modifiable Components: Owners can add roof racks, install foot pedals for Jeeps, or add front and rear anti-collision devices for small vehicles, as long as they are not too prominent, do not exceed the original length and width of the vehicle body, and do not affect the safety performance of the vehicle. These are not considered modifications. Definition of Illegal Modifications: Changing the car emblem, adding lighting devices, installing xenon lights, etc., which alter the fundamental characteristics of the original vehicle, are considered illegal. For fun, transforming a domestic car emblem into a "Mercedes-Benz" or adding an original Toyota emblem, where the characteristic identifiers are changed, constitutes illegal modification.

What Causes the Hissing Noise in Car Radios?

Car radios produce abnormal noises due to poor contact in audio cables, excessively long ground wires, etc. Here are the specific reasons: Poor Contact in Audio Cables: Because audio cables are most susceptible to current interference. Excessively Long Ground Wires: Since ground wire currents are relatively weak, if the wire is too long, it is prone to generating noise. Regardless of whether the grounding surface is good or not, the ground wire must be polished and cleaned at the point where it connects to the frame screw; otherwise, poor contact will cause current interference noise. Power and Audio Cables Not Separately Routed: Because some car modification and detailing shop workers connect power and audio cables together, which can generate current interference noise. Software Issues: Software-related causes of current noise in audio, such as differences in music formats or noise introduced during recording. Trying to play music in different formats can solve the problem.

Can Modified Car Exhaust Be Registered?

Modifying the exhaust pipe can be registered, but it is not allowed. Therefore, even if the owner actively registers the modified exhaust pipe, the traffic police department will order it to be restored within half a month. Car modifications are very common in daily life, mainly including body modifications and performance modifications. Before modifying a licensed vehicle, the owner must register and declare the modifications to the vehicle management office. The modification can only proceed after the technical report is reviewed and approved by the vehicle management office. Legal car modifications include the following: Body modifications: Body modifications can be achieved through decals or wraps, but the area covered must not exceed 30% of the vehicle's surface to be considered legal. If this limit is exceeded, approval from relevant authorities is required. Color modifications: In recent years, changing the vehicle's color has become popular. However, the owner must complete the modification registration with the vehicle management office within ten days and obtain a new driver's license. Most importantly, the color must not be changed to those reserved for national administrative law enforcement vehicles. Modifications to the body, frame, or engine: These are only permitted if the original parts are irreparably damaged or have quality issues. Otherwise, such modifications are illegal.

What Causes One Car Cooling Fan to Spin While the Other Doesn't?

Car cooling fans may have one spinning while the other doesn't due to reasons such as insufficient coolant temperature or a faulty relay. Here are the specific details: Insufficient Coolant Temperature: Most modern car radiator fans operate based on electronic temperature control. Typically, the fan will only start spinning when the engine coolant reaches the required temperature. If the temperature is too low, the radiator fan won't activate. Therefore, if one radiator fan isn't working, the first step is to check whether the coolant temperature meets the requirement. Faulty Relay: If the coolant temperature is adequate but the radiator fan still doesn't operate, the issue might lie with the fan relay. A malfunctioning relay can prevent the radiator fan from functioning properly. Thermostat Switch Problem: If neither of the above issues is present, the next step is to inspect the thermostat switch. Sometimes, faults in this component can also affect the operation of the car's radiator fan, so it's important to examine it as well.

Is it necessary to keep a life jacket in a car?

It is not necessary to keep a life jacket in a car, but the vehicle must be equipped with a reflective vest, a fire extinguisher, a warning triangle, and optionally, jumper cables, a seatbelt cutter/window breaker, and a tow rope. If space permits, you can also keep windshield washer fluid and a few bottles of mineral water. The following explains why a life jacket is not needed: No time to use: There is no time to put on a life jacket. If the vehicle is involved in an accident and submerged in water, there won't be enough time to open the trunk and retrieve a life jacket. Space not connected: Many vehicles have no connection between the interior and the trunk, so keeping a life jacket inside the car serves no purpose.
