Mandatory scrapping periods for motor vehicles: 1. Taxis (small and mini) - 8 years. 2. Tourist and highway passenger vehicles (large and medium) - 15 years. 3. Non-operational large and medium vehicles - 20 years. 4. Mini trucks - 12 years. 5. Heavy, medium, and light trucks - 15 years. 6. Semi-trailer tractors - 15 years. 7. Non-operational small and mini vehicles have no usage period limit, but must undergo biannual inspections after 15 years. Vehicles failing inspection will be mandatorily scrapped. Scrapping procedure: 1. Vehicle owners applying for scrapping must complete and stamp the "Motor Vehicle Alteration, Transfer, Modification, Suspension, and Scrapping Approval Application Form". 2. Apply at the registration counter. For vehicles reaching scrapping age, a "Vehicle Scrapping Notice" will be issued. For vehicles not reaching scrapping age but meeting scrapping standards after inspection, a "Vehicle Scrapping Notification" will be issued. 3. Owners choose a qualified recycling company to dismantle the vehicle with the "Notice". 4. The recycling company verifies the "Notice", dismantles the vehicle, and takes photos. The engine must be separated from the vehicle, engine block destroyed, and chassis cut. 5. Owners submit the "Alteration Form", "XX Province Vehicle Renewal Technical Assessment Form", "Scrapped Vehicle Recycling Certificate", and dismantling photos to the inspection counter. After verification and approval, license plates are reclaimed and scrapping registration is processed.

What is the fuel consumption of the Ford Mustang 5.0 version per 100 kilometers?

Ford Mustang 5.0 has a fuel consumption of 12.2L per 100 kilometers, which is the official data. The fuel tank capacity of the Ford Mustang 5.0 is 58.9L, and the distance it can travel on a full tank is 58.9/12.2*100=482km. The fuel consumption of a car is directly related to five major factors: driving habits, the car itself, road conditions, natural wind, and environmental temperature. Specific factors that can increase a car's fuel consumption are as follows: Driving habits: Aggressive driving, such as sudden acceleration, frequent overtaking, and not easing off the throttle before a red light, can increase fuel consumption. The car itself: Cars with larger displacement generally consume more fuel than those with smaller displacement because larger displacement usually means higher power, requiring more gasoline to burn and perform work. Cars with greater weight will have higher fuel consumption because greater weight requires more driving torque. Road conditions: Driving on dirt roads, muddy roads, soft surfaces, or mountainous roads increases resistance and fuel consumption. Natural wind: Driving against the wind or on windy days increases the car's resistance and fuel consumption. Low environmental temperature: When the engine block temperature is low, the gasoline injected during cold starts does not atomize easily, requiring more gasoline to be injected for combustion, thus increasing fuel consumption. Additionally, at low temperatures, the engine's computer will control the engine to run at higher RPMs to warm up, which also increases fuel consumption.

What is the density of ABS?

ABS density is 1.04~1.06g/cm3. ABS, full name Anti-lock Braking System. Functions of ABS: Maximize the effectiveness of the brakes, shorten braking time and distance. Effectively prevent vehicle skidding and fishtailing during emergency braking, ensuring good driving stability. Allows steering during emergency braking, providing excellent steering control. Avoids severe friction between tires and the ground, reducing tire wear. Working principle of ABS: During braking, ABS quickly determines the wheel lock-up state based on speed signals from each wheel speed sensor, closes the normally open input solenoid valve on the wheel that begins to lock, and keeps the braking force constant. If the wheel continues to lock, the normally closed output solenoid valve is opened, causing the braking pressure on that wheel to rapidly decrease due to the direct connection to the brake fluid reservoir, preventing the wheel from completely locking due to excessive braking force. This keeps the braking state always at the optimal point (slip ratio S of 20%), achieving the best braking effect and maximum driving safety.

What is the symbol for adding windshield washer fluid to a car?

The symbol for adding windshield washer fluid to a car is a spray-like symbol representing the front windshield, which is basically unified across all brands, so there's no need to worry about recognizing it incorrectly. Generally, there is an indicator light on the car's dashboard that displays the windshield washer fluid level. When this indicator light starts flashing, it is reminding you that the windshield washer fluid is almost used up and needs to be refilled. Here are some precautions: 1. Do not overfill: When adding windshield washer fluid yourself, be careful not to overfill it. If there are some bubbles at the container's mouth, there is no need to worry as it does not affect the use of the windshield washer fluid. 2. Add according to the season: Generally, if the vehicle is spending winter in the north, the windshield washer fluid added must be of the antifreeze type. If it is used in the south, usually only windshield washer fluid with added insect-clearing ingredients is needed. Many southern drivers who go to the north often overlook this point, which can easily cause significant damage to the vehicle.

Should You Press the Brake or Clutch First When Decelerating in Subject 3?

Subject 3 deceleration requires pressing the brake first. Introduction to Subject 3: Subject 3, which includes the road driving skills test and the safety and civilized driving knowledge test, is part of the motor vehicle driver's license assessment. It is the abbreviated term for the road driving skills and safety and civilized driving knowledge test subjects in the motor vehicle driver's examination. Requirements for Subject 3: 1st gear can only be used for 50 meters before shifting is required, and 2nd gear can only be used for 200 meters before shifting. It is recommended to use 2nd gear when turning. Typically, turning vehicles are required to merge into the driving lane, as merging directly into the driving lane eliminates the need for a lane change maneuver. A left turn is a wide turn; after the vehicle crosses the stop line, the steering wheel should not be turned sharply immediately.

Does Uneven Tire Wear Require Tire Replacement?

Tire replacement is necessary for uneven tire wear. Methods to determine if tires need replacement: When the tread wear approaches the wear indicators. All tire brands have wear indicators at the bottom of the tread grooves. Generally, the height of the wear indicator for passenger car tires is 1.6 millimeters (this is also the legally mandated minimum groove depth for tires), while for heavy-duty tires, the wear indicator height is 2.4 millimeters. Factors affecting tire lifespan: Tire manufacturing date: Tires manufactured more recently have stronger rubber wear resistance. Generally, tires wear faster after 3 years. Vehicle alignment parameters: Proper four-wheel alignment ensures even tire wear, thereby extending tire life. Tire brand: Different brands of tires wear at different rates.

Should You Cover Your Car with a Car Cover When Parking Outdoors in Winter?

You should cover your car with a car cover when parking outdoors in winter. Precautions for using a car cover: A car cover is not a fully adhered protective film; it will move relative to the car body, especially during strong winds. If you cover the car without washing it first, the car cover will carry dust and tiny sand particles on the paint surface, causing friction back and forth, similar to light grinding, which can potentially damage the car's paint. When not to use a car cover: According to the "Road Traffic Safety Law," vehicles that are illegally parked will be uniformly considered as "obstructing license plates" if covered with a car cover. In addition to fines, the driver will also face a penalty of 12 demerit points.
