The methods to restore extended brake pedal travel are as follows: 1. First check if the brake pads are excessively worn: Generally, mid-to-high-end cars are equipped with brake pad wear warning functions. Once the brake pads approach the critical wear level, the corresponding warning light will illuminate on the dashboard. The brake master cylinder contains several rubber cups that squeeze brake fluid through the brake pedal, transmitting the force to the wheel cylinders, which then push the brake pads to create friction against the brake discs for braking force. 2. Check for internal leaks in the brake master cylinder and wheel cylinders. 3. Start the car and wait for the idle speed to stabilize (approximately 2-3 minutes). 4. Press the brake pedal firmly all the way down. 5. After two seconds, pull up the handbrake while keeping the foot brake firmly pressed for several seconds. 6. Then slowly release the foot brake, and finally release the handbrake.

Should You Use a Car Cover During a Typhoon?

Protecting the paintwork is crucial in any season, under any circumstances, and in any natural environment, as it provides a direct protective effect. However, during a severe typhoon, the effectiveness may be limited. For example, a friend parked their car under the shade of a tree outside a restaurant, thinking it was a foolproof plan. Yet, upon returning after the meal, they found the car 'kissed' by bird droppings and tree resin. Another scenario involves sandstorm weather—a freshly washed car on the first day might end up covered in a 'sand coat' by the next evening, not only affecting its appearance but also posing a significant risk as fine dust particles can infiltrate car components, leading to potential damage. Additionally, cars exposed to intense sunlight, especially after washing, can suffer if water droplets aren’t wiped dry. These droplets act like convex lenses under the sun, causing harm to the paintwork comparable to scratches from a knife. The impact of natural environments on vehicles is multifaceted.

Does Annual Inspection Affect Selling a Car?

Annual inspection does not affect selling a car. As long as the vehicle has no violations or hit-and-run incidents, it can be sold at any time without issues. Vehicle Annual Inspection: It refers to a mandatory inspection for every vehicle that has obtained official license plates and a registration certificate. This is equivalent to an annual physical examination for the vehicle according to the "Technical Conditions for Motor Vehicle Operation Safety." Vehicle annual inspections can promptly eliminate potential safety hazards, encourage enhanced vehicle maintenance, and reduce the occurrence of traffic accidents. Relevant Regulations: Vehicle annual inspections are regulated in documents such as the "Regulations for the Implementation of the Road Traffic Safety Law." Before the inspection, some preparatory work is required (such as understanding relevant information, online appointment procedures, and issues to note for the vehicle) to ensure a smooth and successful inspection. There are initial and periodic annual inspections, along with some related policies.

Can a car be used to extract oil?

The fuel inlet of a car's fuel tank is a curved pipe, making it impossible to extract oil from there. However, by opening the rear seat cushion of the car, you can find an access point to do so. Gasoline is a volatile and flammable hydrocarbon mixture liquid derived from the distillation and cracking of petroleum, used as fuel. It appears as a transparent liquid, is flammable, and has a distillation range of 30°C to 220°C. Its main components are C5 to C12 aliphatic hydrocarbons and cycloalkanes, along with a certain amount of aromatic hydrocarbons. Gasoline has a high octane number (anti-knock combustion performance) and is classified into different grades based on octane ratings, such as 89, 90, 92, 93, 95, 97, and 98. Starting from January 2012, the gasoline grades 90, 93, and 97 were revised to 89, 92, and 95 respectively.
