There are two models of tires for the Bora: one is 205/55r16, and the other is 195/65r15. For example, 205/55r16 means the tire width is 205 millimeters, the aspect ratio is 55, 'r' stands for radial tire, and 16 indicates it can be mounted on a 16-inch rim. The aspect ratio of 55 means the tire's sidewall height is 55% of the tire's section width. The Bora is a self-designed model under FAW-Volkswagen, positioned as a compact sedan. In terms of body dimensions, the Bora measures 4523mm in length, 1775mm in width, 1467mm in height, with a wheelbase of 2610mm.

How often should a sedan be inspected after six years?

After a sedan has been in use for six years, it must undergo an annual inspection. Below is relevant information about vehicle inspections: 1. Introduction: Vehicle annual inspection refers to a mandatory test for every vehicle that has obtained an official license plate and registration certificate. It is equivalent to an annual physical examination for the vehicle according to the "Technical Conditions for Motor Vehicle Operation Safety." 2. Purpose of Vehicle Inspection: Vehicle annual inspections can assess the condition or operational capability of the car, ensure the personal safety of the driver, guarantee that the vehicle meets the required appearance standards and has good safety performance, limit the level of environmental pollution caused by the vehicle, and ensure its operation under safe, efficient, and low-pollution conditions.

Why does the engine shake slightly at idle?

Reasons for slight engine shaking at idle: severe engine carbon deposits, ignition system failure, unstable oil pressure, and aging engine components. Below is relevant information about automotive engines: 1. Introduction: The automotive engine is the device that provides power to the vehicle, serving as the heart of the car, determining its power, fuel efficiency, stability, and environmental performance. 2. Automotive engine maintenance: (1) Regularly change the engine oil and oil filter. As the oil passes through the fine holes of the oil filter, solid particles and viscous substances in the oil are trapped in the filter. (2) Regularly maintain the radiator. Rust and scale in the engine radiator are the most common issues. Rust and scale can restrict the flow of coolant in the cooling system, reducing heat dissipation and causing the engine to overheat, potentially leading to engine damage.

Is it necessary to apply for ETC if I don't frequently use highways?

It is necessary to install ETC. According to the regulations of the State Council, vehicles without ETC installed by 2020 will not enjoy toll discounts. In the future, only one manual lane will remain at highway toll stations, and toll fees can only be paid through manual lanes. Additionally, newly installed ETC devices cannot be used on highways immediately—they need to be activated first. During free holiday periods, vehicles with ETC can still use highways, and ETC users passing through ETC lanes will not be charged. ETC Billing Principle: There will be one or more ETC lanes on highways. Through dedicated short-range microwave communication between the vehicle-mounted electronic tag installed on the windshield and the microwave antenna in the ETC lane at the toll station, the system uses computer networking technology to perform backend settlements with banks. This allows vehicles to pay tolls without stopping at the toll station, all based on the principle of "pass first, deduct later." Benefits of Installing ETC: Time-saving: Eliminates the hassle of waiting in line; Green and eco-friendly: Promotes low-carbon travel by reducing noise and exhaust emissions since vehicles don’t need to stop at toll stations; Reduced wear and tear: Saves costs by minimizing frequent starts and brakes, thereby lowering vehicle wear and fuel consumption; Improved efficiency: ETC lanes can theoretically increase traffic efficiency by 2-3 times, making traditional ETC faster, more advanced, 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, intercity transportation cards will be widely interoperable in key city clusters, and the proportion of vehicles equipped with ETC will significantly increase." It also set a target in the "13th Five-Year" comprehensive transportation development indicators: "By 2020, the ETC usage rate for road passenger vehicles should reach 50%." More future possibilities: In addition to continuously improving the convenience of ETC installation and usage rates for passenger vehicles, efforts will be made to promote ETC adoption for trucks in the future. There will also be exploration of deeper integration between ETC systems and smart transportation developments 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 usage.

What is the difference between deposit and earnest money in a car purchase contract?

Below are the differences between deposit and earnest money in a car purchase contract: 1. Different definitions: The earnest money in a car purchase contract is a certain amount of money paid as a guarantee when the car purchase contract is concluded or before performance. There is no clear legal provision for the deposit, which is generally regarded as an advance payment in the car purchase contract. This guarantee is unilateral, and it only binds the payer, that is, the payer's guarantee to the recipient. 2. Different guarantee effects: The biggest difference between earnest money and deposit is that earnest money has a guarantee effect, while deposit does not (even if it does, it is only the payer's unilateral guarantee to the recipient). Therefore, when such a car purchase dispute arises, the 4S store has the right not to return the earnest money previously paid by the consumer; if it was a deposit that was previously paid, except for deducting part of the liquidated damages, the consumer can recover part of the deposit.

Are Pickup Trucks Considered Commercial Vehicles?

Pickup trucks are considered commercial vehicles. Here is an introduction to pickup trucks: 1. Types of pickup trucks: Pickup trucks are a hybrid of passenger cars and commercial vehicles, belonging to the category of dual-purpose vehicles for both passengers and cargo. Pickup trucks feature a car-like front end and cabin, along with an open cargo bed. 2. Characteristics of pickup trucks: Pickup trucks combine the comfort of a passenger car with powerful performance, and they surpass passenger cars in cargo capacity and adaptability to rough road conditions. The most common type of pickup truck is the double-cab model. Pickup trucks can serve as special-purpose vehicles, multi-purpose vehicles, official vehicles, business vehicles, or family cars, used for cargo transport, tourism, rentals, and more.

What to Do When the Tire Pressure Monitoring System Shows Left and Right Reversed?

Tire pressure monitoring shows left and right reversed. The owner can readjust the tire pressure sensors and reinstall them in the correct left and right positions. If reinstallation is not preferred, a rematch can be performed. There are three common types of tire pressure monitoring methods: Direct Tire Pressure Monitoring: Direct tire pressure monitoring devices use pressure sensors installed in each tire to directly measure the tire pressure. The pressure information is transmitted from inside the tire to a central receiver module via a wireless transmitter, and then the tire pressure data for each tire is displayed. When the tire pressure is too low or there is a leak, the system will automatically issue an alert. Indirect Tire Pressure Monitoring: When the pressure in a tire decreases, the vehicle's weight causes the rolling radius of that wheel to become smaller, resulting in a higher rotational speed compared to the other wheels. By comparing the differences in rotational speeds between the tires, the system monitors the tire pressure. Indirect tire pressure alert systems essentially rely on calculating the rolling radius of the tires to monitor pressure. Tire Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS): This system combines the advantages of the two aforementioned systems. It is equipped with direct sensors in two diagonally opposite tires and a four-wheel indirect system. Compared to using only a direct system, this hybrid system can reduce costs and overcome the limitation of indirect systems, which cannot detect when multiple tires simultaneously have low pressure. However, it still cannot provide real-time data on the actual pressure in all four tires as a direct system does.
