According to different vehicle purposes, the scrapping periods vary. Based on mileage, vehicles reaching 600,000 kilometers will be mandatorily scrapped. For commercial vehicles, the scrapping period is 8 years. However, regulations since May 2013 state that non-commercial mini and small passenger vehicles will no longer have a mandatory scrapping period, but they must be mandatorily scrapped if they fail three consecutive inspections. Additional information is as follows: 1. Vehicle inspection data: Apart from vehicle aging, vehicles may also be phased out due to failure to meet emission standards. Various regions have gradually tightened restrictions on emissions, with 2017 requiring the elimination of vehicles that fail to meet emission standards. Whether emissions meet standards is primarily determined by vehicle inspection data, specifically based on smoke opacity values. 2. Non-compliant vehicles: If repairs still fail to meet emission limits, the transportation certificate will be revoked by authorities. Currently, common technologies in China to make vehicles with excessive emissions meet smoke opacity standards include installing DPF (Diesel Particulate Filter) and adding water-assisted engines.

What is Gasoline Additive?

Gasoline additive is an abbreviation for fuel additive, which generally also includes diesel additives. It is designed to compensate for the inherent quality issues of fuel and the limitations in automotive mechanical manufacturing, thereby enabling gasoline engines to overcome cold shock effects and crevice effects, as well as to remove carbon deposits on intake valves and fuel injectors. As a vehicle continues to operate, substances such as sludge and carbon deposits can form in the throttle body, fuel injectors, cylinders, and other parts of the engine, which can affect the normal operation of the vehicle. If the presence of sludge and carbon deposits is ignored, they can gradually erode engine power, reduce fuel economy, increase emissions of environmentally harmful substances, and lead to a series of engine malfunctions.

What is the emission standard for vehicles from 2007?

For vehicles from 2007, there are both National II and National III emission standards. 1. The National II standard was implemented nationwide from July 1, 2004. In preparation for the Olympics, Beijing implemented it ahead of schedule. Compared to National I, the National II standard further tightened emission requirements, reducing single-vehicle pollutant emissions by 30% for carbon monoxide and 55% for hydrocarbons and carbon oxides. 2. The National III standard was implemented nationwide from July 1, 2007, primarily applicable to light gasoline and diesel vehicles under 3.5 tons. Vehicles produced before this date adhered to the National II standard. To reduce pollutant emissions, National III vehicles underwent technical upgrades to the engine and exhaust system, including the addition of an onboard diagnostic system and improvements to the three-way catalytic converter. Compared to National II, National III reduces total pollutant emissions by 40%.

What does it mean to shift into P gear and leave the vehicle for inspection at a service station?

It may indicate an issue with the transmission control unit or the gear shift mechanism. Below are relevant extended details: 1. Problem with the gear shift mechanism: It requires testing the shift mechanism signals. The general repair solution involves repairing or replacing the shift mechanism to resolve the issue. 2. Some vehicles may have issues with the transmission control unit: This can be resolved through software updates or replacement. 3. Handling method: Under such circumstances, it is advisable to avoid continuing to drive. Safely park the vehicle and ensure the transmission is in the P (Park) position. If the fault persists, promptly contact a repair facility for assistance. This is because the transmission gear signals may be inaccurate, and in severe cases, the vehicle may fail to start or move.

Where is the horn relay of Wuling Zhiguang located?

Wuling Zhiguang's horn relay is located at the lower left corner of the engine under the hood. Here is more information about the relay: 1. The main relay of Wuling Zhiguang has a control system and a controlled system, which is used in automatic control circuits. It is an 'automatic switch' that uses a smaller current and lower voltage to control a larger current and higher voltage. 2. The relay plays a role in automatic adjustment, safety protection, and circuit switching in the circuit. 3. After the main relay of Wuling Zhiguang is engaged, gradually reduce the supply voltage. When you hear the relay release sound again, note down the voltage and current at this time. You can also try several times to obtain the average release voltage and release current.
