The reasons for the ASR light coming on are: 1. The tires have been repaired or removed; 2. Insufficient tire pressure or a leak in the tire; 3. Encountering icy roads, which reduces the vehicle's grip and causes wheel slippage; 4. If the vehicle has an ABS system, it may also cause the ASR light to come on. ASR is the Anti-Slip Regulation system, which prevents the drive wheels from slipping during acceleration and maintains the stability of the vehicle's direction. The ASR light coming on indicates that there may be a fault in the vehicle's traction control system. The vehicle should be taken to a 4S shop for inspection as soon as possible. Such faults are usually caused by wiring issues and require a fault diagnostic tool to identify the cause of the fault and perform repairs to clear the fault light.

Can a Peugeot 408 be fitted with a non-start-stop battery?

Peugeot 408 can be fitted with a non-start-stop battery. Additional information: The differences between start-stop batteries and regular batteries are as follows: 1. Different service life: 1.1 The lifespan of a start-stop battery can reach 6 years. Dedicated start-stop batteries for vehicles can endure more charge cycles and last longer, typically 3-8 times longer than regular batteries. The plates in start-stop batteries are harder than regular ones, preventing active material from easily detaching, making them suitable for vehicles with start-stop systems. 1.2 Regular batteries have a service life of about 2 years. 2. Different battery capacity: 2.1 Start-stop batteries have larger capacity and can charge/discharge rapidly. Conventional lead-acid batteries cannot handle multiple high-current discharges in short periods, as their separators don't allow rapid ion passage. 2.2 Regular batteries cannot handle multiple high-current discharges in short periods, as their separators don't allow rapid ion passage. 3. Different prices: 3.1 Start-stop batteries are more expensive. They use stamping technology with higher technical requirements, and the increased production costs raise the overall price. 3.2 Regular batteries are cheaper.

Does changing rims require registration?

Whether changing rims requires registration depends on the situation. If the size of the replaced rims is the same as the original model of the vehicle, registration is not required. However, if the size of the rims changes, registration is necessary. Below is additional information: 1. Reasons for changing rims: Besides cases where rims must be replaced due to deformation, people often change rims for aesthetic reasons, to alter visual effects, or to switch to lighter rims, which can improve vehicle performance to some extent. 2. Disadvantages of oversized rims: Installing excessively large rims may lead to rubbing against the wheel arches, increase unsprung mass, disrupt the factory-set suspension geometry, and affect driving safety. Using rims larger than the original size also increases fuel consumption and raises tire replacement costs. Therefore, if you need or want to change rims, it is advisable to use rims of the same size as the original ones and ensure that the bolt pattern and rim width match the original specifications.
