Car wheel bolt torque standards vary depending on the vehicle model, and the specific values should be checked in the manual. Here are some relevant details: 1. General situation: For household passenger cars, it is generally 90-110N, which means a one-meter lever with 9-11 kilograms of force. However, some modern cars use bolts instead of the traditional nuts, and the torque should be smaller because the bolts have conical surfaces—over-tightening may cause the wheel hub to crack. 2. Torque specifications: Whether the wheel is steel or aluminum, generally, using the original car's lug wrench with a 20cm extension and right-arm pressure is sufficient.

What documents are required for car inspection?

Documents required for vehicle annual inspection include the ID card of the vehicle owner or agent, and the vehicle registration certificate. For compulsory traffic insurance, check the validity date of the insurance that includes vehicle and vessel tax before the inspection. If it has expired or will expire within three months after the inspection date, it is recommended to renew the insurance in advance. Notes for vehicle annual inspection: Bring the duplicate of the compulsory traffic insurance, which can be submitted directly without the need for photocopying. Arrive before the morning work shift (usually 8:30) to save time. Clear all vehicle violation records. Now, inspection stations can also handle on-site payment of fines. If the vehicle has issues, repairs can be done at the inspection station.

Can Traffic Violations Be Handled Without the Vehicle Owner Present?

Traffic violations can be handled without the vehicle owner being present, but the proxy must provide the original and a copy of the owner's ID card. In cases involving point deductions, a driver's license (which can belong to any individual) is also required. If documents are temporarily withheld, the "Traffic Management Temporary Withholding Certificate" must be brought to the relevant authorities for violation processing. Below are specific methods for querying violations: Website Violation Query: Locate the vehicle violation information query section on the local public security website or Wan Che Tou Tiao website, enter the license plate number and the last six digits of the vehicle identification code, select the vehicle type, and input the verification code. Mobile App Violation Query: Open the traffic violation query application APP.

Does idling with the AC on in summer damage the car?

Idling with the AC on in summer can damage the car. When the car's engine is running, if the gasoline in the cylinders does not burn completely, it can produce high concentrations of carbon monoxide. While driving, the air creates convection through the AC system, keeping the carbon monoxide concentration inside the car very low. The hazards of idling with the AC on are as follows: Introduction 1: Idling with the AC on can cause some damage to the car and wear on the engine, potentially requiring shorter maintenance intervals. If the engine speed is too low to power the AC, incomplete combustion can easily lead to carbon deposits. Introduction 2: Idling with the AC on while parked can cause poor system cooling, which may lead to overheating of the engine coolant. Overheating can easily damage the engine.

Why Does the Car Brake Make Abnormal Noises?

Car brakes make abnormal noises mainly due to the following reasons: 1. Use of low-quality or overly hard brake pads. If inferior or excessively hard brake pads are used, they will produce abnormal noises when rubbing against the brake discs during braking. 2. Presence of sand or foreign objects between the brake pads and discs. Due to the unique design of disc brakes, some sand or foreign objects may inevitably get between the brake pads and discs, causing abnormal noises during braking. 3. Severe wear of the brake discs. Using low-quality brake pads or having hard foreign objects between the brake pads and discs can lead to abnormal wear of the brake discs. 4. Brake pad warning. Some brake pads come with electronic warnings, while lower-end vehicles may use warning tabs. If the wear on the brake pads reaches the warning line, abnormal noises will be produced.

Does a small scratch on the tire have any impact?

Generally, a small scratch on the sidewall of a tire does not affect its use. However, if a layer of rubber is missing, it is not recommended to continue using it. The rubber on the sidewall of a tire is very thin and can easily burst from the damaged area, and it cannot be repaired because repairing requires grinding away part of the rubber, making it even thinner. Most repair shops do not repair tire sidewalls and usually recommend replacement. Additional information: Car tires are one of the important components of a vehicle. They directly contact the road surface and work together with the car's suspension to cushion the impact during driving, ensuring good ride comfort and smoothness. They also ensure good adhesion between the wheels and the road surface, improve the vehicle's traction, braking, and off-road capability, and bear the weight of the car. The important role of tires in vehicles is increasingly being recognized.
