The service life of an external tire pressure monitoring system is approximately 2 to 3 years. Below are the benefits of installing a tire pressure monitoring alarm in a vehicle: Preventing accidents: The tire pressure monitoring system is a type of active safety device that can provide timely alerts when there are signs of danger in the tires, reminding the driver to take appropriate measures to avoid serious accidents. Extending tire lifespan: With a tire pressure monitoring system, the tires can always operate within the specified pressure and temperature ranges, thereby reducing tire damage and extending their service life. When the tire pressure drops by 10% below the normal value, the tire lifespan is reduced by 15%.

I've been using external tire pressure monitors for several years and found they typically last 3-5 years, mainly depending on the battery. The model I chose uses CR2032 coin cell batteries, with an average lifespan of 3 years. Environmental factors have a significant impact—high summer temperatures or heavy rainfall can accelerate battery drain. Once during the rainy season, a sensor malfunctioned after water ingress. To prolong their service life, I regularly wipe the sensor surfaces with a dry cloth to prevent dust from clogging the valve stem, and avoid over-tightening during installation to prevent mechanical damage. If readings become erratic, it's time to check whether the battery is depleted or components are aging, replacing them promptly to ensure driving safety. Generally, cheaper models may fail in just 2 years, while quality brands last considerably longer.

How to Bleed the Brakes?

Bleeding the brakes should be connected to the vacuum booster. Here is a partial introduction about brake bleeding: 1. Brake system principle: The principle of the brake system is relatively simple. Starting from the brake pedal, it is connected to a vacuum booster, making it easier for the driver to press the brake. Then, it goes from the brake fluid reservoir to the ABS pump, and then to the four brake fluid lines, which squeeze the pistons to press the brake pads against the brake discs to achieve the braking effect. Brake fluid contains a certain amount of water, and continuous compression in the fluid lines will turn the water into air, causing the brakes to feel soft. 2. Air bleeding method: The method of bleeding air is also relatively simple, usually done together when changing the brake fluid. There are bleed screws on all four brake calipers, with high-end models having two, but generally one. After bleeding all four calipers, test the brakes again. If they still feel soft, continue bleeding.

What is the emission standard for cars registered in 2013?

Vehicles manufactured in 2013 and registered thereafter comply with the China IV emission standard. According to the State Council's fuel quality upgrade schedule, the transition period for the fourth-phase gasoline standard lasted until the end of 2013. Starting from January 1, 2014, all gasoline sold by domestic major suppliers was upgraded to China IV standard. Relevant information about automotive emission standards is as follows: 1. Introduction: Automotive emission standards regulate the permissible levels of harmful gases emitted from vehicle exhaust, including CO (carbon monoxide), HC+NOx (hydrocarbons and nitrogen oxides), and PM (particulate matter, soot). 2. Implementation: Starting from January 1, 2004, Beijing upgraded its vehicle emission standards from Euro I to Euro II. By 2008, the Euro III standard was officially implemented.

Why is there no warning sound when the seat belt is not fastened?

The reasons for not hearing a warning sound when the seat belt is not fastened are as follows: 1. Sensor malfunction; 2. Seat belt socket issue; 3. The driver or passenger is too light for the sensor to detect; 4. Loose or damaged safety alarm plug; 5. Wiring issue with the safety alarm. Solutions: 1. Have the sensor checked at a 4S shop and replace it if damaged; 2. If the seat belt socket is faulty, replace it with a new one; 3. Adjust your position on the seat to ensure the sensor can detect you; 4. Secure or replace the safety alarm plug; 5. Have the safety alarm wiring inspected at a 4S shop, and consider a comprehensive check if possible.

Can a Used Car Purchased Still Be Under Warranty at a 4S Store?

Whether a used car can be covered by warranty depends on whether it is still within the warranty period. Generally, new cars can enjoy a warranty of 2 years or 60,000 kilometers. If the used car has not exceeded the warranty period, it can still receive warranty services. Used cars purchased at 4S stores usually enjoy extended warranty services, and officially certified used cars generally also provide services such as a 7-day no-reason return policy and a one-year warranty. The advantages of purchasing a used car include: 1. Cost-effective: Used cars are generally not the latest models on the market and are usually two years behind. For the same brand and model, buying a used car one or two years later can save you thousands of dollars. 2. Low depreciation rate: Any car, once registered and licensed at the vehicle management office, will continuously lose value each year, regardless of whether it is used or how much it is used.

Typically, with a 16GB memory card, 720P resolution can record approximately 200 minutes of video, whereas 1080P can only record about 100 minutes. Relevant information about dash cams is as follows: 1. Introduction: A dash cam is a device that records images, sounds, and other related information during vehicle travel. 2. Function: After installing a dash cam, it can record the entire driving process's video images and sounds, providing evidence for traffic accidents.
