Second maintenance refers to the car's second scheduled service. During the second maintenance, no unnecessary replacements or cleaning are required. The following items need to be replaced during the second maintenance: 1. Engine oil replacement. 2. Oil filter replacement. 3. Air filter replacement. 4. Cabin air filter replacement. The benefits of car maintenance include: 1. Ensuring the vehicle maintains optimal performance. 2. Improving vehicle efficiency and reducing wear on parts and tires. 3. Enhancing driving safety. 4. Preventing potential hazards caused by vehicle issues. 5. Reducing noise and environmental pollution. 6. Keeping the vehicle's appearance clean and preventing damage.

When it comes to the second maintenance, or the second service, I believe the key is to change the engine oil and oil filter. Engine oil is like the blood of a car, lubricating the engine and reducing wear; the filter removes impurities to prevent clogging. Some car models recommend changing the air filter at the same time, especially if you often drive in dusty areas, as it ensures clean air intake and improves fuel efficiency. I suggest checking the vehicle manual, which will list the specific replacement items in detail; during the second maintenance, don’t neglect checking the tires, brake fluid, and coolant to prevent oil leaks or other hidden issues. Regular maintenance can extend the engine’s lifespan, reduce the risk of sudden breakdowns, and make long-distance driving safer. Saving money by skipping replacements might seem fine in the short term, but it can damage the engine in the long run and make repairs more difficult.

When doing the second maintenance in my own car, I usually change the engine oil and oil filter, which are standard items on the maintenance checklist. Many car owners overlook the replacement of the air filter, especially when driving in cities with heavy air pollution where dust tends to accumulate. I recommend getting it done at a 4S shop or professional service center, as they will also check the brake system and tire pressure to ensure driving safety. The cost of the second maintenance is not high, but it can prevent major repairs; for example, after changing the engine oil, the engine runs quieter and more powerfully, and fuel consumption can also be reduced slightly. If you drive a lot, getting maintenance done earlier is more cost-effective. Remember not to exceed the recommended mileage interval for each maintenance.

The key points of the second maintenance are changing the engine oil and oil filter, which is not expensive and makes the car run smoothly. As a novice driver, I also learned to try doing it myself, and the air filter can be replaced simply. If the road conditions are poor, check the brake fluid more frequently. Good maintenance reduces faults, saving money and hassle.

Having driven for decades, I emphasize that the second maintenance must include changing the engine oil and oil filter to avoid engine overheating issues. The air filter is often overlooked but crucial; replacing it ensures smooth airflow and boosts performance. Additionally, checking the coolant and brake fluid can prevent oil leakage accidents. Neglecting these small tasks can double future repair costs—safety comes first.

What procedures are required for driver's license renewal?

To renew a driver's license, you need to bring two copies of your ID card, two 1-inch bareheaded color photos, the original ID card, the original driver's license, and a medical examination certificate from a county-level or above hospital (free physical examination is also available at the vehicle management office) to the vehicle management office. After filling out the "Motor Vehicle Driver's License Application Form," you can renew your license for free. The specific introduction to the driver's license is as follows: Definition: A motor vehicle driver's license is a legal document issued by the management department after a person who is legally allowed to learn to drive a motor vehicle has studied, mastered traffic regulations and driving skills, and passed the examination, permitting the driving of a certain type of motor vehicle. Classification: The Ministry of Public Security issued the "Motor Vehicle Driver's License Business Work Standards" and supporting regulations, further subdividing the previous three types of permitted driving models—A license (A driver's license, large passenger vehicle), B license (B driver's license, large truck), and C license (C driver's license, small car)—into seven types, while canceling the Q license.

How to Know if There Are Traffic Police Checking Vehicles?

Highways: Generally, traffic police or highway patrol do not conduct vehicle checks on highways, except for criminal police. 2. National and Provincial Roads: Vehicle checks on national and provincial roads also require approval from higher authorities. Setting up unauthorized checkpoints constitutes "three types of road disorder." 3. Traffic Inspection Points: Traffic inspection points approved by higher authorities are usually fixed at key locations on national and provincial roads, selected to minimize disruption to traffic flow. When driving on the road, drivers often interact with traffic police. If signaled to stop by the police, the correct procedures are: 1. Pull Over Safely: Upon seeing the traffic police's stop signal, avoid slamming the brakes or jerking the steering wheel. Activate the right turn signal to alert following vehicles. Pull over to the right at the designated spot or the nearest safe location as instructed. 2. Turn Off Engine and Exit: After safely parking, turn off the engine and bring necessary documents like the driver's license and vehicle registration to present to the officer. 3. Cooperate Actively: If stopped for a routine inspection (not for a violation), cooperate by opening the car doors and trunk for examination.

What is a Car Fuel Pump?

Fuel pump refers to the device located at the bottom of the vehicle that draws fuel from the fuel tank, pressurizes it, and delivers it to the fuel supply pipe and engine combustion chamber. During operation, it works in conjunction with the fuel pressure regulator to generate a certain fuel pressure, serving as a fundamental component of the electronic fuel injection system in cars. Below is relevant information: 1. Structural features of the fuel pump: The fuel pump consists of an electric motor, a pressure limiter, and a check valve. The electric motor actually operates within the fuel inside the pump housing, where the fuel lubricates and cools the motor. Since there are no ignition sources inside the housing, it generally does not pose any danger. The check valve is installed at the fuel outlet, and the pressure limiter is located on the pressure side of the pump housing, featuring a passage that leads back to the fuel inlet. 2. Precautions for fuel pump inspection: When inspecting the fuel pump, the engine and other electronic components must not be in operation, as running them can affect the voltage applied to the fuel pump and current readings, thereby compromising the inspection results.

Should You Open the Engine Hood After Driving on the Highway?

It is not necessary to open the engine hood after driving on the highway. Here are the reasons: 1. The car is equipped with coolant: The function of coolant is specifically to cool the engine. Its working principle is to use a water pump to increase the pressure of the coolant, allowing it to circulate through the engine's water channels, thereby achieving cooling. 2. The assistance of the cooling system: It cools down heated components to prevent issues. The cooling system mainly consists of a thermostat, cooling fan, and other cooling devices. Because of this system, the engine can effectively dissipate heat.
