The function of the urea tank is to store the liquid that reduces nitrogen oxide pollution in diesel vehicle exhaust. Below is an introduction to the urea tank: 1. Principle: With the implementation of the National IV and Euro IV emission standards in 2008, diesel engine emission reduction systems require the use of urea aqueous solution, and this urea tank is used to store the urea aqueous solution. To reduce the emission of harmful NOX gases from vehicles, the internationally adopted SCR (Selective Catalytic Reduction) technology is widely used. The principle of SCR exhaust treatment involves reacting urea aqueous solution with nitrogen oxides (NOX) to produce non-polluting nitrogen and water. 2. Benefits: It protects both your health and the environment, preventing harm to people. After adding urea, the resulting water and nitrogen are non-toxic and harmless. However, the urea used by drivers is different from that used for crops; it undergoes special treatment. Otherwise, using agricultural urea could be dangerous and clog the exhaust pipe.

Is it no longer necessary to display the insurance decal now?

Insurance decals are still required to be displayed. The vehicle inspection compliance decal, compulsory insurance decal, and environmental inspection compliance decal—these three decals were all mandatory in the past and had to be affixed to the front windshield. However, with the introduction of new regulations, the environmental inspection compliance decal has been abolished. Now, only the vehicle inspection compliance decal and compulsory insurance decal need to be displayed. The auto insurance decal is one of the key indicators to verify whether a vehicle has compulsory traffic insurance. The insurance decal on a vehicle's windshield serves as proof that the vehicle is covered by compulsory third-party liability insurance. It allows traffic police to clearly determine whether the insurance is valid and up to date.

What is the correct position to adjust car rearview mirrors?

Correct adjustment positions for car rearview mirrors: 1. For the left mirror, one-quarter of the car body should be visible, with the horizon positioned at the center of the mirror; 2. The right mirror should also show one-quarter of the car body, with the sky occupying one-third and the ground two-thirds of the view; 3. The interior rearview mirror should divide the view equally between sky and ground (half each), providing clear visibility of the rear through the window. Rearview mirrors are crucial safety components of motor vehicles, used for observing rear road conditions during reversing and monitoring the vehicle's surroundings while driving. Currently in China, most automotive rearview mirrors use silver or aluminum for their reflective coating, with some models using chromium.

What to Do When Car Air Conditioning Cooling is Poor?

Solutions for poor car air conditioning cooling: 1. Clean the filter: If the filter is too dirty, it will block the cold air, reducing the cooling effect; 2. Turn on the internal circulation: When the car air conditioning is on, you can turn off the external circulation and only turn on the internal circulation, so the cold air inside the car won't exchange with the hot air outside, naturally improving the cooling effect; 3. Adjust the air direction: Adjust the car air conditioning vents upward, and the wind blowing on your face will feel cooler; 4. Check the car refrigerant: Over time, the refrigerant may deplete. You can go to a repair shop to check if the refrigerant is missing and add it if necessary; 5. Clean the evaporator: Cleaning the evaporator can enhance the cooling effect and improve air conditioning hygiene, ensuring healthier and safer air.
