Plug-in hybrid vehicles use green new energy license plates. The first character on the plate represents the abbreviation of the province where the vehicle is registered, the second is an English letter representing the code of the city where the vehicle is located, followed by a five-digit serial number. The functions of license plates are: 1. To number and register information for each vehicle; 2. To identify the region where the vehicle is registered; 3. To trace the owner and registration details of the vehicle based on the plate. Types of license plates: 1. White represents military or police plates; 2. Blue represents ordinary small vehicles with fewer than 7 seats; 3. Yellow represents ordinary large vehicles; 4. Black represents foreign enterprise plates.

I've been driving a plug-in hybrid vehicle, and the license plate issued is a new energy license plate, which is that small green plate. This is quite common in China because policies encourage new energy vehicles. There are so many benefits, such as being exempt from traffic restrictions in big cities like Beijing and Shanghai, making commuting smooth. The application process is simple—just bring the vehicle registration certificate, purchase invoice, and ID card to the local vehicle management office, and it's done in one go. I find it very convenient; it runs purely on electricity when charging, saving fuel costs. Sometimes, parking spots even offer discounts, which is super cost-effective. I recommend all car owners switch to green plates as soon as possible and not miss out on these benefits, especially now when fuel prices are rising sharply—it can help save a lot of money.

What are the benefits of cleaning fuel injectors?

Benefits of cleaning fuel injectors: 1. Restore engine power: Carbon buildup in fuel injectors can cause significant power loss. After cleaning, engine performance will improve and return to optimal condition; 2. Maintain smooth engine operation: When fuel injectors become clogged, noticeable engine vibration occurs during operation. Cleaning the injectors can effectively reduce this vibration; 3. Reduce exhaust emissions: Carbon deposits causing abnormal injector operation negatively affect air-fuel mixture formation and combustion, leading to increased vehicle emissions. Proper injector cleaning helps improve exhaust pollution levels.

What Causes Brake Noise After Washing the Car?

Brake noise after washing the car is caused by water on the brake pads. Brake pads, also known as brake linings, are critical safety components in a car's braking system. They play a decisive role in the effectiveness of all braking operations. Brake pads are mechanical braking devices that slow down the vehicle, also known as decelerators. The car's brake pedal is located below the steering wheel. Pressing the brake pedal activates the brake linkage, which transmits pressure to the brake pads on the brake drum, clamping the brake rotor to slow down or stop the vehicle. The manual brake in a car is located next to the gear shift and is connected to the brake lever. Common examples also include bicycle brakes, which use rod-shaped brakes fixed to the frame or disc caliper brakes to decelerate.

How to Solve Foggy Car Windows?

Solutions for foggy car windows: You can try using the air conditioning to blow away the moisture, or use specialized defogging products. Before driving, evenly spray the defogger on the window glass surface and wipe it clean with a dry towel. Alternatively, you can mix detergent and water in a 1:10 ratio and pour it into a spray bottle to make a homemade defogger. Using the air conditioning to blow away moisture can be done in two ways: with cold air or warm air. Turn on the cold air, adjust the vents to the front windshield, and activate the external circulation. This method is a quick way to deal with fogging on the front window, as it can blow away the fog in about ten seconds, making it suitable for use on rainy summer days.

Where are the car fog lights located?

Car fog lights are located below the car headlights. Fog lights can increase the running distance and improve the visibility of the driver and surrounding traffic participants, allowing oncoming vehicles and pedestrians to spot each other from a farther distance. Car fog lights are divided into: 1. Front fog lights; 2. Rear fog lights. In terms of materials, they are categorized into: 1. Gas car fog lights; 2. LED car fog lights. The function of car fog lights is to provide a high-intensity scattered light source designed to penetrate thick fog and alert oncoming drivers. The purpose of rear fog lights is to make the vehicle more visible to drivers behind in low-visibility conditions such as fog, snow, rain, or dust.

How to Solve Foggy Car Windows?

Press the defogging button, turn on the air conditioning (A/C) switch, set the temperature to the lowest, and turn on the external circulation to remove fog. Both cold and warm air can defog car windows, but warm air works slower than cold air. The most effective method is to use cold air, which blows dry, cold air directly onto the glass, preventing water vapor from condensing on the glass and achieving defogging. The method for warm air defogging is the same as cold air defogging, but note that warm air should not be used on rainy days as it may initially worsen the fog. Always use external circulation when defogging car windows. The reason for foggy car windows: There is a certain temperature difference between the inside and outside of the car. If the temperatures inside and outside the car are different, the surface with the lower temperature will have a lower saturated vapor pressure than the surrounding environment, causing water vapor to gather on the glass surface in the form of tiny droplets, forming fog. Methods to defog car windows: Air Conditioning Cooling: Use the air conditioning's cooling and dehumidifying function to reduce air humidity and remove fog. In summer, especially when multiple people enter the car without turning on the air conditioning promptly, the exhaled air has high humidity, and the windshield will fog up quickly. At this time, turn on the air conditioning to blow cold air onto the windshield, using the dehumidifying function to remove the fog quickly. If the humidity is too high and the air conditioning is not effective enough, slightly open a window to quickly reduce the humidity inside the car. Combining this with the air conditioning will yield faster results. Air Conditioning Warm Air: Use the method of reducing the temperature difference to remove fog. In winter, blow warm air onto the glass to quickly raise the temperature of the windshield, reducing the temperature difference between the inside and outside surfaces of the glass, thereby preventing heavy fogging. However, note that the rear and side windows heat up more slowly, so it takes longer to remove all the fog. Whether the air conditioning is automatic or manual, turning it on helps with dehumidification. Do not set the air conditioning temperature to the coldest position, as this may cause the outer surface of the windshield to fog up over time. Applying Anti-Fog Spray: Spray a small amount of defogging agent on the car windows and wipe it clean to remove dirt and stains. While polishing the glass, a thin, transparent protective film forms, effectively preventing water vapor from condensing into fog on the glass. This is especially useful in cold winters. Alternatives to anti-fog spray include dish soap, soapy water, glycerin, alcohol, or saline solution. After applying and letting it dry, wipe off any excess with a chamois or soft dry cloth. This will keep the car windows fog-free for several days. Opening Windows for Airflow: If the fog inside the car is not too heavy, opening the windows on both sides can create airflow between the inside and outside of the car, reducing the temperature difference and gradually eliminating the fog. The principle of this method is the same as using cold air from the air conditioning. However, this method has obvious drawbacks and cannot be used during rain, snow, on highways, or when the fog is heavy. Rear Window Heating: Most cars have a rear window heating function, though the button location may vary. Turning on the rear window heating switch will remove the fog in about a minute.
