Converting a car into a motorhome on your own is illegal. After modification, it cannot participate in annual inspections or apply for a license plate, so there are no procedures required for self-converting a motorhome. It cannot be legally driven on the road after modification. Both domestically and internationally, there are manufacturers specialized in producing motorhomes. Purchasing motorhomes from these manufacturers allows for normal licensing. If you modify a car into a motorhome yourself, it is illegal and constitutes unauthorized alteration of the vehicle's structure. Below is the application process for vehicle modification: 1. The vehicle owner must first fill out the "Motor Vehicle Modification Registration Application Form." 2. Then, submit the identity proofs of the vehicle owner and the agent, along with the "Motor Vehicle Registration Certificate," "Motor Vehicle Driving License," and standard photos of the vehicle for which modification registration is being applied. 3. If the vehicle owner's name is changed, and the vehicle is owned by a company, it is also necessary to submit proof of approval for the change from the competent department or the parent unit, or proof of approval for the change from the industrial and commercial registration department, and the modified "Organization Code Certificate." 4. Additionally, for applicants who meet the requirements, the vehicle management office can complete the procedures within 1 working day from the date of acceptance.

Where to Check the Power Steering Fluid in a Bora?

Dongfeng Castrol primarily engages in the production of original equipment manufacturer (OEM) lubricants for Dongfeng Group and after-sales service oils. The lubricants produced for the aftermarket are referred to as the Full Series. The Full Protection series offers excellent performance, and after some usage, the fully synthetic oil proves to be highly cost-effective. With Castrol's technical support, the overall performance is comparable to Castrol Edge products, making it a reliable choice. Advantages of Castrol: Castrol's main advantages include excellent cold-start performance, providing protection even before the engine starts, superior anti-wear properties compared to other oils, and effective reduction of engine noise. However, its cleaning capability is not as strong as that of Shell and Mobil products in the same category, and the oil tends to degrade relatively quickly. It's clear that different brands of engine oil have their own strengths and weaknesses, with some focusing on cleaning performance and others on high-temperature wear resistance. Precautions for Using Synthetic Oil: It's important to note that in extreme weather and environmental conditions, it is recommended that vehicle owners use fully synthetic oil. For example, in extremely cold regions, dusty areas, severely humid environments, and high-temperature zones, the engine can be subjected to significant stress and damage.

Can a Sedan Undergo Annual Inspection with Traffic Violations?

In theory, a vehicle with traffic violations can undergo an annual inspection, but in practice, owners are usually required to settle the violations before proceeding with the inspection. According to the "Motor Vehicle Registration Regulations," vehicle owners can apply for an inspection compliance mark at the local vehicle management office within three months before the expiration of the vehicle's inspection validity period. Before applying, the vehicle owner must resolve all traffic violations and accidents related to the vehicle. Motor vehicles must undergo safety technical inspections at the following intervals from the date of registration: 1. Commercial passenger vehicles: once a year within the first 5 years; every 6 months after 5 years. 2. Trucks and large/medium-sized non-commercial passenger vehicles: once a year within the first 10 years; every 6 months after 10 years. 3. Small and micro non-commercial passenger vehicles: once every 2 years within the first 6 years; once a year after 6 years; every 6 months after 15 years. 4. Motorcycles: once every 2 years within the first 4 years; once a year after 4 years. 5. Tractors and other motor vehicles: once a year. Commercial vehicles that pass the safety technical inspection within the specified period do not need to undergo repeated inspections. 6. Vehicles exceeding the scrapping age: cannot be transferred (sold or bought) but can still be used; for transactions, the owner must first obtain a scrapping certificate (to deregister the vehicle's records) from the vehicle management office.

What is the Difference Between Car Waxing and Crystal Coating?

Introduction to the differences between car crystal coating and waxing: 1. Oxidation aspect: Wax is a cause of oxidation on the car's surface because grease begins to oxidize when exposed to oxygen in the air. Once oxidized, it easily attracts dirt, which is difficult to remove. (It also easily accumulates scratches during washing.) Crystal coating makes it difficult for dirt to adhere to the car's paint surface, maintains long-lasting gloss, and is less prone to scratches. 2. Molecular structure difference: To use a metaphor of molecular size, grease-based (wax) is like a bowling ball, while glass cellulose is like a glass marble. Glass cellulose, through a chemical reaction with the help of fluorine, forms a tightly bonded coating layer in the state of glass marbles. Even rain won’t cause it to peel off, as it firmly adheres to the car body, effectively blocking UV rays and dirt. The coating layer can last for a long time because it doesn’t oxidize, making it difficult for dirt to adhere, and even if it does, it can be easily removed. 3. Gloss: Gloss can be described as "oily shine" and "sparkling." Preferences for gloss vary from person to person. Those who prefer an oily shine use grease-based products (wax). However, grease-based (wax) products lose their gloss when they attract dust, which absorbs the grease. Another point about grease-based products is that they can cause diffuse reflection.

What are the body dimensions of the Prado?

The length, width, and height dimensions of the Prado are 4840mm/1885mm/1890mm, which are official data. The length of the Prado refers to the distance between two vertical planes perpendicular to the vehicle's longitudinal symmetry plane and touching the outermost protruding parts at the front and rear of the vehicle. The width refers to the distance between two planes parallel to the vehicle's longitudinal symmetry plane and touching the outermost rigid fixed protruding parts on both sides of the vehicle. The height refers to the distance between the highest point of the vehicle and the supporting plane of the vehicle. The naturally aspirated engine of the Prado has a maximum power of 206kw and a maximum torque of 365 Nm. This engine reaches its maximum power at 6000 rpm and its maximum torque at 4500 rpm. It is equipped with in-cylinder direct injection technology and uses an aluminum alloy cylinder head and block. The engine is paired with an automatic transmission (AT). There are national regulations regarding vehicle dimensions. According to the national standard 'GB1589-89,' the total width of a vehicle does not include side mirrors. The limitation on vehicle width is to provide sufficient lateral clearance for overtaking between adjacent lanes. This means that, under national standards, the significance of vehicle width data lies in ensuring enough space during overtaking, preventing accidents due to excessive width or situations where road markings are narrower than the vehicle's width. Additionally, national regulations stipulate that the total width of a vehicle must not exceed 2.5m to meet the requirements of public road usage.
