The maintenance interval for the Mazda 6 is every 5,000 kilometers or three months. There are two indicators for car maintenance: one is the time indicator, and the other is the mileage indicator, whichever comes first. Below are the details about car maintenance: 1. Minor Maintenance: Minor maintenance mainly involves changing the engine oil and oil filter. Engine oil, also known as engine lubricant, is referred to as the 'blood' of the engine. Its primary functions include lubrication, shock absorption, and buffering for the engine. Engine oil can be categorized into mineral oil, semi-synthetic oil, and fully synthetic oil, each with different effects and usage intervals. 2. Major Maintenance: Major maintenance involves a comprehensive inspection of the car and replacing the 'five oils, four filters, and three fluids.' The five oils include engine oil, power steering fluid, transmission fluid, clutch fluid, and brake fluid. The four filters are the air filter, oil filter, fuel filter, and cabin air filter. The three fluids are coolant, battery fluid, and windshield washer fluid.

How long does it take for a new car to be inspected at a 4S store before delivery?

It takes 2-5 days for a new car to be inspected at a 4S store before delivery. Vehicle Annual Inspection: According to the "Regulations on the Registration of Motor Vehicles" (Order No. 102 of the Ministry of Public Security), the owner of a motor vehicle can apply for an inspection compliance mark at the local vehicle management office within three months before the expiration of the vehicle's inspection validity period. In other words, if the deadline is July 2018, the earliest the annual inspection can be completed is May 1st, and the latest is July 31st. Annual Inspection Time: A motor vehicle can undergo an annual inspection within three months before the expiration date of the annual inspection. The expiration date of the annual inspection can be found on the supplementary page of the vehicle license, which states the inspection validity period up to a certain year and month. For example, if the supplementary page of the vehicle license states "Inspection validity period until July 2018," then the annual inspection should be conducted in May, June, or July, with the final deadline being July 31st.

How Long Does It Take to Obtain a Vehicle License?

Generally, it takes 3 to 4 days to obtain a new vehicle license. The vehicle license needs to be processed when purchasing a vehicle, and the application must be submitted to the local vehicle management office. Required documents include proof of road maintenance fee payment and other relevant certificates. Only after completing the vehicle license application and fulfilling all necessary procedures can the vehicle be legally driven on the road. Consequences of Driving Without a License: Driving a vehicle without a valid license will result in the vehicle being impounded by traffic police. Many people take chances when violating traffic regulations, believing that if they are careful enough, they won't be caught by the police, and their vehicle won't be impounded. However, driving without a valid license is inherently unsafe, and even if not caught by the police, it poses a risk to the driver's safety. Functions of a Vehicle License: The vehicle license serves as proof of vehicle registration, proof of ownership, insurance claim documentation, and warranty proof for new vehicles. Only after registration with the traffic management department of the public security authority can a motor vehicle be driven on the road. For insured motor vehicles, if an accident covered by the insurance policy occurs, the policyholder must present a valid 'Motor Vehicle License' (which includes passing annual inspections) to be eligible for insurance claims.

Can I use 12123 without carrying my driver's license and vehicle registration certificate?

Driving without a driver's license (including not having an electronic driver's license on your smartphone) is a violation of traffic regulations and will result in fines and penalty points imposed by the traffic management department of the public security authorities. This is unrelated to whether you have a driver's license registered on the 12123 traffic management network. Legal penalties: If you forget to bring your driver's license when going out, you can provide your driver's license number (ID number) to the traffic police for verification to prove that you are not driving without a license. The traffic police will check your driver's license information through the call center and may let you go, or they may legally deduct 1 point and impose a fine before letting you go. The 12123 traffic management app only supports roadside checks and simplified procedures (in cases where no accidents have occurred). It is recommended to carry the original driver's license when going out. Penalties for driving without a license: If you do not carry your motor vehicle driver's license with you, regardless of whether the driver has violated any laws during the journey, they are not allowed to continue driving the vehicle. The traffic management department of the public security authorities should impound the motor vehicle and notify the driver to provide the driver's license. Different actions will be taken depending on the circumstances of the provided driver's license.

What Causes a Fuel-Injected Motorcycle to Suddenly Stall While Riding Normally?

Reasons include an empty fuel tank, abnormal fuel supply, excessively high engine temperature, electrical circuit failure, or a stuck clutch/other components. Below are detailed explanations: Empty fuel tank: Before stalling due to fuel exhaustion, the engine RPM will suddenly increase automatically (without throttle input). This phenomenon is easily noticeable at low speeds. Parking to check fuel levels can confirm this. Abnormal fuel supply: In this case, you'll feel gradual power loss before stalling. Check if the carburetor contains fuel. If empty, it indicates a clogged fuel line from tank to carburetor requiring cleaning. If fuel is present but the engine won't start, inspect the carburetor filter for blockage or dirty main jet. Excessively high engine temperature: Overheating causes poor lubrication, leading to piston-cylinder seizure and stalling. Check if lubricant is excessively depleted and replenish/replace promptly. Electrical circuit failure: Sudden power loss may result from loose connections, wire breaks or shorts. Inspect all connectors, clean oil contamination, and ensure stable contact. Poor trigger coil performance or loose solder joints may cause ignition failure - reinforce solder joints to eliminate poor connections. Stuck clutch/other components: When clutch support disk screws loosen (due to improper tightening or failed locking mechanisms), they may contact transmission countershaft bearing covers, causing clutch seizure and sudden stalling.

What does the EPC light on the car display mean?

The EPC indicator light has two activation states: illumination during power-on self-test and illumination under other circumstances. The power-on self-test is an indication that the vehicle is checking the status of all sensors before driving. Generally, if the vehicle is not started after power-on, the light will turn off by itself after about 3 seconds. In other cases, if the EPC light remains illuminated after the vehicle is started, the main causes may include faults in the engine intake system, throttle valve, fuel system, engine, ECU control unit, or brake light. Below is a detailed explanation of the reasons for the EPC light illuminating under other circumstances: Engine intake system fault: The EPC light will activate if the engine intake is obstructed or insufficient. Throttle valve fault: Carbon buildup is a common issue with the throttle valve. Additionally, dirt accumulation can affect intake, triggering the indicator light. Fuel system fault: This includes issues such as substandard fuel, fuel deterioration, or poor fuel atomization. Engine fault: Insufficient engine pressure or problems with components like the intake valve in the powertrain can also cause the EPC light to activate. ECU control unit fault: Examples include interference with the vehicle computer signals or false alarms from the vehicle computer. Brake light fault: This includes situations where the brake light fails to illuminate, the brake switch malfunctions, or the brake wiring is faulty. Solutions for when the EPC light illuminates: Troubleshoot the intake system, use fuel with the appropriate octane rating, clean the throttle valve, etc. Remove carbon deposits from relevant components. Re-flash the ECU with updated data. If the EPC light illuminates, the owner can first try turning off the engine and restarting it to check if the light remains on. If it does not, there may be no issue, as the EPC light could have been affected temporarily. If the EPC light stays on or frequently illuminates, the vehicle should be taken to the nearest repair facility for professional diagnosis and timely resolution of potential safety hazards. The full English name of EPC is Electronic-Power-Control, which translates to electronic power control. Most people refer to it as the engine electronic stability system. The EPC system primarily includes controllers and sensors related to the powertrain. When sensor data in the system is abnormal, the EPC system will take predefined measures to address the powertrain issues. Common EPC indicator lights are typically displayed in two colors: yellow and red. A yellow EPC fault light indicates that the vehicle can still be driven, but it should proceed slowly to a repair facility for inspection. A red EPC fault light signifies a more severe issue, and the vehicle should be pulled over immediately while contacting a professional for repairs. Continuing to drive under such conditions may directly affect the vehicle's core components or compromise driving safety.
