The solution for not consuming urea is: 1. Check whether the post-processing wiring harness and sensors are in normal contact, and make timely adjustments and repairs if there are any issues; 2. Check whether the urea pipeline is normal and whether there is any leakage. If there is, it needs to be replaced in time; 3. Check whether the urea pump is working normally. Once abnormal operation is found, the cause of the fault needs to be checked in time; 4. Check whether the urea nozzle is working normally. If the nozzle is found to be clogged or cannot open normally, it should be cleaned or replaced in time. Automotive urea, also called exhaust treatment fluid, is a liquid used in SCR technology to reduce nitrogen oxide pollution in diesel vehicle exhaust. If the vehicle does not consume urea, it means the SCR system is not working properly. Although it can save money on urea, the chemicals inside will quickly oxidize, and the urea nozzle will also become clogged, causing the entire system to be scrapped.

Recently, my diesel car also encountered the issue of urea not being consumed, which is usually caused by the urea level being too low. Refilling it should solve the problem. If the issue persists after refilling, it might be due to a clogged nozzle—cleaning the pipeline usually helps. Alternatively, the sensor might be faulty, displaying incorrect data, which requires a reset. In winter, low temperatures can cause urea to crystallize, affecting its flow, and preheating the car can alleviate this. Prolonged lack of maintenance can trigger system alerts and increase fuel consumption, so I've developed a habit of checking the urea level monthly and using reputable brand urea to avoid impurities. If you notice any issues while driving, don't push it—address them promptly to prevent damage to the vehicle.

What Causes Heavy Black Smoke from the Engine?

Heavy black smoke from the engine can be caused by the following reasons: 1. Clogged air intake: A blocked air intake fails to provide sufficient air during combustion, leading to incomplete combustion and resulting in black smoke from the engine. 2. Insufficient compression: Inadequate compression prevents the required pressure from meeting combustion demands, worsening combustion conditions and causing the engine to emit black smoke. 3. Changes in combustion environment: Long-term use of the engine and other factors can alter the shape and volume of the combustion chamber, further degrading the quality of air-fuel mixture. Poor mixture formation and deteriorating combustion conditions can produce black smoke.

What does ETC vehicle mean?

ETC vehicles refer to vehicles equipped with ETC onboard units. ETC stands for Electronic Toll Collection in Chinese, which is currently the most advanced toll collection method for roads and bridges worldwide. It utilizes microwave-dedicated short-range communication between the onboard electronic tag installed on the vehicle's windshield and the microwave antenna in the ETC lane at toll stations. The fully automatic electronic toll collection system (ETC) is one of the service functions of the intelligent transportation system, particularly suitable for use on highways or busy bridges and tunnels. Currently, there are dedicated ETC toll lanes at highway toll stations. Car owners only need to install a sensor card on the vehicle's front windshield and preload funds. When passing through toll stations, there is no need for manual payment or stopping, as the toll will be automatically deducted from the card, enabling automatic toll collection. This system takes less than two seconds per vehicle, with a toll lane capacity 5 to 10 times that of manual toll lanes. Using the fully automatic electronic toll collection system can lead to paperless and cashless management of highway tolls, fundamentally eliminating the loss of toll revenue and addressing financial management chaos in highway toll collection. Additionally, implementing the fully automatic electronic toll collection system can save on infrastructure and management costs. Documents required for ETC application: The original valid ID card of the vehicle owner, the original and a copy of the vehicle registration certificate (providing the page with the most recent annual inspection stamp). If applying on behalf of someone else, the original valid ID card of the agent is also required. If applying for ETC through major bank branches, a corresponding bank debit or credit card is needed. Some banks only support ETC binding with credit cards, while others may require freezing a portion of the amount as a deposit when binding with a debit card. ETC deduction principle: There will be one or more ETC lanes on highways. By utilizing computer networking technology for background settlement with banks, the system achieves the purpose of toll collection without requiring vehicles to stop at toll stations, all based on the principle of passing first and deducting fees later. Benefits of installing ETC: Time-saving: Eliminates the hassle of waiting in line; Green and environmentally friendly: Reduces noise and exhaust emissions by eliminating the need for vehicles to stop at toll stations, thereby minimizing pollution; Reduced wear and tear: Saves costs by decreasing the frequency of vehicle starts and brakes, lowering wear and fuel consumption; Improved efficiency: The theoretical efficiency of ETC lanes can be increased by 2-3 times, making traditional ETC more updated, faster, and more high-tech. Compared to license plate payment, ETC technology is more mature and advantageous. More policy support: The State Council explicitly stated in the "13th Five-Year Plan for the Development of a Modern Comprehensive Transportation System" that "by 2020, the interoperability of transportation smart cards in key city clusters will be basically achieved, and the proportion of vehicles equipped with ETC will be significantly increased." It also set a clear target in the main indicators for comprehensive transportation development during the "13th Five-Year Plan" period: "By 2020, the ETC usage rate for road passenger vehicles will reach 50%." More future possibilities: In addition to continuously improving the convenience of ETC installation and usage and increasing the ETC usage rate for passenger vehicles, efforts will be made to promote ETC usage for trucks in the future. There will also be exploration into deeper integration of the ETC system with smart transportation development directions such as vehicle-to-vehicle communication and vehicle-road coordination, providing comprehensive travel services for car owners. This means more application scenarios will support ETC applications. ETC usage precautions: The ETC transaction sensing area is 8 meters. When encountering a stationary vehicle ahead, to prevent issues with the leading vehicle's ETC device or if it lacks an ETC device, maintain a distance of more than 10 meters to avoid automatic sensing and payment for the leading vehicle. The recognition speed for ETC lane passage is 20 km/h. Speeding may result in failure to read the vehicle's device information and toll deduction failure. Unauthorized removal or movement of the OBU device, detachment, or loosening of the ETC electronic tag can render the tag ineffective. It can be taken to the bank where the ETC card was issued or the highway service office for inspection. If the loosening or detachment is not due to human factors, reactivation may suffice. When using a debit card bound to ETC, insufficient balance can also lead to toll deduction failure. Follow the guidance of on-site staff to use the manual MTC lane for passage via cash or card payment. Excessive thickness of the car windshield may cause poor sensing. This is particularly noteworthy for vehicles that have undergone windshield replacement after accidents or for those who have modified their front windshield.

Are imported cars considered as inventory after one year?

Imported cars are considered as inventory after one year. To determine whether a car is an inventory car, you only need to compare the car's manufacturing date with the purchase date. Inventory cars parked in warehouses for a long time may experience aging of some components, such as tires, wipers, rubber seals, etc. Inventory cars generally refer to vehicles that have not been sold for more than three months after leaving the factory. Inventory cars should undergo regular cleaning, maintenance, and battery charging. Months or even years of inventory can lead to battery discharge, aging of various fluids, and deformation of tires due to prolonged fixed contact with the ground. Rain may cause moisture damage to electronic components, and dust can clog various heat dissipation devices and drainage holes of the vehicle.
