It can be used for 10 years or longer. The lifespan of a car is closely related to the owner's driving habits and maintenance. With proper care and no major accidents, it can last for 10 years. 1. Regulations: Non-commercial passenger vehicles with 9 seats or fewer (including sedans and off-road types) must be forcibly scrapped after 15 years or 600,000 kilometers. If the vehicle meets the scrapping standard but the owner wishes to continue using it, no approval is required. After passing inspection, the service life can be extended, with mandatory biannual inspections. For vehicles over 20 years old, inspections increase to four times annually starting from the 21st year. 2. Factors affecting car lifespan: Not straightening the steering wheel when parking, leading to wheel tilt, can damage tires over time. Delaying maintenance, using substandard parts, haphazardly replacing car components to cut costs, and improper disassembly and assembly techniques can also impact longevity.

What to Do When the Engine Warning Light on the Dashboard Comes On?

If the engine warning light comes on, you can follow these steps to address the issue: First, check whether the engine is running normally. Look for signs such as shaking, black smoke, or difficulty starting. If any of these issues are present, avoid restarting the engine. Note: If the light is red, do not attempt to restart the engine under any circumstances. If the engine is running normally and the vehicle can still be driven, visit a service center as soon as possible to diagnose the problem. A service center can easily read the fault codes using a portable diagnostic tool, allowing for targeted repairs based on the fault information. If the engine is running normally, the owner can also try gently reconnecting various wiring harness connectors, as a loose connection may be the cause. Alternatively, repeatedly turning the key to the ON position may reset the light. Generally, the engine warning light may come on due to the following seven reasons: Sensor malfunction: This includes sensors such as the coolant temperature sensor, crankshaft position sensor, air flow sensor, intake air temperature sensor, and oxygen sensor. If these sensors are damaged, have poor connections, or lose signal transmission, the vehicle's ECU cannot accurately obtain engine data, triggering the warning light. Fuel or oil quality issues: Failure to use the fuel or engine oil recommended by the manufacturer may lead to engine wear, causing the warning light to illuminate. Poor combustion of the air-fuel mixture: This can result in engine carbon buildup or knocking. When detected by the oxygen sensor and reported to the ECU, the warning light will activate. Common causes include faulty spark plugs, ignition coils, fuel pumps, or clogged fuel lines. Turbocharger issues: Problems with the intake boost system or turbocharger can trigger the engine warning light. The most common issue is turbocharger failure, often accompanied by oil leaks, excessive oil consumption, reduced power, metallic noises, or blue/black smoke from the exhaust. Air intake issues: Blockages in the engine's air intake system can lead to the warning light turning on. A dirty or uncleaned air filter is a frequent cause. Exhaust system issues: Faults in the exhaust system, such as a malfunctioning rear oxygen sensor, catalytic converter, exhaust camshaft, or bearings, can trigger the warning light. The catalytic converter is particularly prone to damage from leaded gasoline, improper oil additives, physical impact, or fuel system issues. Anti-theft system malfunction: If the vehicle's electronic anti-theft system fails or the immobilizer and engine control unit are mismatched, the engine may not operate correctly, and the warning light will illuminate.

Does ETC need to be transferred after vehicle ownership transfer?

ETC does not need to be transferred after vehicle ownership transfer. There are three ways to handle ETC after vehicle transfer: When the vehicle transfer is completed and the license plate number remains unchanged, you can go to the bank branch where it was originally processed to complete the information change procedures; When the vehicle is transferred and the license plate number is changed: complete the unbinding procedure, then reapply for ETC for the new vehicle according to regulations; After vehicle transfer occurs, cancel ETC. ETC charging principle: There will be one or more ETC lanes on highways. Through microwave dedicated short-range communication between the on-board electronic tag installed on the vehicle windshield and the microwave antenna in the ETC lane of the toll station, computer networking technology is used to conduct background settlement with the bank, achieving the purpose of vehicles not needing to stop at road and bridge toll stations to pay road and bridge fees. All of this is based on the principle of passing first and deducting fees later. Benefits of installing ETC: Save time: eliminates the hassle of waiting in line; Green and environmentally friendly: green and low-carbon, vehicles passing through toll stations without stopping can reduce noise and exhaust emissions, reducing pollution; Save wear and tear: save costs, reduce the frequency of vehicle starts and brakes, and reduce wear and fuel consumption; Improve efficiency: The theoretical efficiency of ETC lanes can be increased by 2-3 times or more, making traditional ETC updates faster and more high-tech. Compared to license plate payment, ETC technology is more mature and advantageous. More policy support: The State Council clearly stated in the "13th Five-Year Plan for the Development of a Modern Comprehensive Transportation System" that "by 2020, the interoperability of transportation cards in key urban agglomerations will be basically achieved, and the proportion of vehicles equipped with ETC will be significantly increased," and clearly proposed in the main indicators of the "13th Five-Year" comprehensive transportation development that "by 2020, the ETC usage rate of road passenger vehicles will reach 50%". More future possibilities: In addition to continuously improving the convenience of ETC installation and usage and the usage rate of ETC passenger vehicles, the future will also promote the use of ETC for trucks, explore the deep integration of the ETC system with the development direction of smart transportation such as vehicle-to-vehicle communication and vehicle-road coordination, and provide car owners with comprehensive travel services, which means that more application scenarios will support ETC applications. ETC usage precautions: The ETC transaction sensing area is 8 meters. When encountering a vehicle in front stopping, to prevent the ETC device of the vehicle in front from malfunctioning or not having an ETC device at all, keep a distance of more than 10 meters from the vehicle in front to prevent automatic sensing from paying for the vehicle in front. The recognition speed for passing through ETC lanes is 20km/h. If the speed is too fast, the vehicle device information cannot be read, which will also lead to charging failure. Unauthorized disassembly or movement of the OBU device, ETC electronic tag falling off or loosening, etc., will cause the electronic tag to fail. It can be sent to the bank where the ETC card was processed or the highway office for testing. Non-human loosening or falling off only requires reactivation. When using a debit card to bind ETC, insufficient balance will also lead to charging failure. You can follow the guidance of on-site staff to go to the manual MTC lane and use cash or card to pass. The windshield of the car is too thick, resulting in poor sensing. Especially for vehicles that have been repaired after an accident and have had the windshield replaced, or friends who have modified the front windshield need to pay attention.
