If the car is not accelerating smoothly and jerking, check whether the fuel injectors and fuel supply system are faulty. Below is the content about the car not accelerating smoothly with abnormal sounds: 1. If the fuel injectors are faulty, it will cause the car to jerk when accelerating. It is recommended to regularly check whether the fuel injectors are faulty. After long-term use, carbon deposits may occur on the fuel injectors, affecting their normal operation. If the carbon deposits on the fuel injectors are severe, adding fuel additives to the fuel tank can reduce the carbon deposit phenomenon. 2. The main causes of fuel injector failure are fuel and filter issues, such as using inferior diesel, long-term use of the filter element without cleaning or replacement. It is recommended to use fuel that meets national standards and regularly clean the fuel filter to prevent excessive fuel impurities from clogging the fuel injectors.

I've also experienced the issue of the car not accelerating smoothly and jerking after startup before, which is quite common. It's mostly due to poor fuel delivery, such as a weak fuel pump or clogged fuel lines with dirt, causing intermittent fuel supply and jerking when accelerating. The ignition system could also be faulty, like worn-out spark plugs or a bad ignition coil, leading to misfires and engine jerking. Last time my car had this issue, replacing the spark plugs improved it. I recommend checking if the air filter is clogged, as insufficient air intake also affects combustion. Alternatively, it could be a transmission problem, especially with automatic transmissions where rough shifting can cause jerking. For safety, avoid forcing the car to drive; instead, stop and check simple components. If that doesn't help, visit a repair shop to read the fault codes with a diagnostic tool. Regular maintenance can prevent such issues, and delaying repairs may lead to more severe engine wear and higher costs.

Does Subject 4 Only Have 50 Questions?

Subject 4 consists of a total of 50 questions, primarily presented in the form of case studies, images, and animations. Subject 4, also known as the Subject 4 theory test or driver theory test, is part of the motor vehicle driver's license examination. The main content of the Subject 4 test includes: Safe and civilized driving operation requirements, safe driving knowledge under adverse weather and complex road conditions, emergency handling methods for situations such as tire blowouts, and knowledge on dealing with traffic accidents. Depending on the type of driver's license being tested, 50 questions are proportionally selected from the corresponding Subject 4 question bank, consisting of 22 true/false questions, 23 single-choice questions, and 5 multiple-choice questions. Making 12 wrong answers (6 questions) during the test will terminate the session. The full score is 100, with a passing score of 90, and the test duration is 45 minutes. Within the three-year period of obtaining a driver's license, you can schedule the Subject 4 test an unlimited number of times. Similar to Subject 1, Subject 4 also offers one immediate retake opportunity. After passing Subject 4, in some places, you can receive your driver's license immediately, or at most within one or two days. Starting from the day you receive your driver's license, the first 12 months are considered the probationary period. During this period, you must display a probationary sign at the rear of your vehicle. The probationary sign is usually issued when you receive your license. If not, you can request one from the vehicle management office. However, if you choose to purchase a probationary sign online, make sure it matches the style issued by the vehicle management office; otherwise, it may be treated as not displaying the required sign.
