What are the new national regulations for vehicle lettering?

New national regulations for vehicle lettering: 7-seat commercial vehicles are required to have mandatory lettering indicating the approved passenger capacity. Private vehicles are not subject to mandatory lettering. Below are the specific legal provisions: Van lettering regulations: Considering the specific circumstances of both urban and rural areas, public security traffic management departments primarily target vans from brands such as Changan, Wuling, Changhe, Dongfeng, Hafei, Jinbei, Liuzhou, Foton, Zhongshun, Dongnan, Beidouxing, and Songhuajiang for carrying capacity warning lettering. The purpose is to remind drivers to comply with passenger loading regulations. Bus lettering regulations: All buses (excluding dedicated school buses and buses with standing passenger areas) must display the number of seats available for passengers (including the driver) in Chinese characters and Arabic numerals with a height of no less than 100mm at a clearly visible location near the passenger door on the exterior of the vehicle. Training vehicles must have the words "Training Vehicle" painted on both sides and the rear of the vehicle in characters with a height of no less than 100mm.

What kind of engine oil should be used for Lavida 1.6 naturally aspirated?

Use mineral oil with the grade 5w40. The following is an introduction about changing engine oil for cars: Key factors to consider when choosing engine oil: The selection of engine oil should be based on the requirements of the engine. It is unnecessary to use overly advanced oil in engines with lower requirements, nor should lower-grade oil be used in engines with higher requirements. Precautions for changing engine oil: The engine must be preheated before draining the oil. At this time, the oil is thinner and flows more easily, which helps to remove impurities and drain the oil thoroughly. Remember not to drain the oil when the engine is cold. Replace the oil filter at the same time. Because the old oil filter may be blocked by impurities, a clogged oil filter will slow down the flow of oil and reduce the lubrication of the engine. The amount of oil added should be measured. For some vehicles, the oil level can be measured by the oil dipstick to determine if it is reasonable.

Can Hankook Tires Last for Six Years?

Hankook tires can last for six years, but the typical service life of Hankook tires is around 3 years or 50,000 kilometers. Precautions for tire usage: Regularly inspect the tire surface for cracks, deformations, or other defects; park on flat ground and avoid parking on roads with large, sharp, or jagged stones; do not cool tires by splashing water. During prolonged or high-speed driving in summer, tires are prone to overheating and increased air pressure. In such cases, park to allow the tires to cool naturally. Never release air to reduce pressure or splash water to cool them down, as this may cause abnormal aging of the tire rubber. Main functions of tires: Support the entire weight of the vehicle, bear the load, and transmit forces and torques in other directions; transfer traction and braking torque to ensure good adhesion between the wheels and the road surface, thereby improving the vehicle's power, braking, and off-road performance; work in conjunction with the vehicle suspension to absorb shocks during driving and dampen resulting vibrations.

What Causes the Brakes to Suddenly Become Hard and Unresponsive While Driving?

When the car brakes cannot be depressed, it is usually due to a problem with the brake vacuum booster. Solutions for hard and unresponsive brakes: Restart the engine, then try to forcefully depress the brake pedal again. Once the engine is running, the brake booster will resume functioning, and the brake pedal will naturally return to normal. Solutions for brake failure: At the first sign of brake failure, release the accelerator and quickly press the clutch to downshift directly. Be careful not to release the clutch too quickly. Once the engine speed drops below 4000 RPM, continue downshifting step by step until reaching first gear, while simultaneously using the handbrake. However, when applying the handbrake, avoid pulling it all the way at once; instead, pull and release it intermittently. Otherwise, the rear wheels may lock up, potentially causing the vehicle to lose control again, leading to skidding or rollover.

What is the normal voltage of a car battery?

Car batteries typically operate between 11.8V and 12.8V. To measure battery voltage accurately, it's best to do so when starting the vehicle, as this reflects the battery's performance under load, providing more precise readings than static voltage measurements - similar to measuring internal resistance. A voltage reading above 11V during startup indicates good battery capacity. If the voltage drops below 10V during startup, this suggests poor battery condition. Alternatively, when measuring with the engine off: 12.15V indicates about 25% charge remaining; 12.30V shows 50% charge; 12.5V represents 75% charge; and any reading above 12.60V indicates a fully charged battery at 100%.

Is it no longer necessary to display the auto insurance decal?

Except for regions where the paper decal for compulsory traffic insurance has been abolished, other areas still require the display of the compulsory traffic insurance decal. Penalties for not displaying the vehicle insurance decal: According to Article 40 of the Compulsory Traffic Accident Liability Insurance Regulations, vehicles on the road must display the insurance decal. Otherwise, traffic authorities have the right to impound the vehicle, impose a fine, and deduct one point from the driver's license. The vehicle will only be released after the insurance decal is displayed. Penalties for driving without compulsory traffic insurance: According to the Road Traffic Safety Law of the People's Republic of China, if a vehicle is driven on the road without compulsory traffic insurance, traffic authorities will temporarily impound the vehicle, impose a fine of twice the amount of the compulsory traffic insurance premium, and require immediate payment of the compulsory traffic insurance before the vehicle can be released.
