16-inch rims can be fitted with 17-inch tires. Compatible tire specifications include 185/55r16, 195/50r16, 205/55r16, 205/65r16, etc. Tires often operate under complex and demanding conditions, enduring various deformations, loads, forces, and extreme temperature effects during driving. Tires must possess high load-bearing capacity, traction performance, and cushioning properties, while also requiring excellent wear resistance, flex resistance, and low rolling resistance with minimal heat generation. Tires can be categorized by application into: passenger car tires, light truck tires, construction machinery tires, off-road vehicle tires, industrial vehicle tires, etc.

Can the Starter Motor Gear Be Replaced?

If the car engine gear is broken, it must be replaced as gears are difficult to repair. Starter Motor: The starter motor converts the electrical energy from the battery into mechanical energy, driving the engine flywheel to rotate and enabling the engine to start. Before the engine can run on its own power, it must rely on external force to rotate. The process of transitioning the engine from a stationary state to self-sustained operation with external assistance is called engine starting. Causes of Gear Damage: Prolonged starting time, not adhering to the recommended usage duration (approximately 5s to 10s) for the starter motor, or using the starter for extended periods without identifying the root cause can lead to damage. When the brushes wear down to half their original length, they should be replaced. During starter motor maintenance, regularly inspect the brush height and contact condition, and address any issues promptly to prevent irreversible damage to the starter.

How Often Should Fuel Injectors, Throttle Bodies, and Three-Way Catalytic Converters Be Cleaned?

The throttle body is generally cleaned every 20,000 kilometers or so. Fuel injectors are typically cleaned every 2 years or 60,000 kilometers. The three-way catalytic converter is usually cleaned when the vehicle has traveled 20,000 to 30,000 kilometers, but the cleaning frequency should be adjusted based on the actual driving conditions. If left uncleaned for too long, it can lead to increased fuel consumption and reduced engine performance, so regular cleaning is recommended. Cleaning the Three-Way Catalytic Converter: The cleaning method for the three-way catalytic converter involves using an intravenous drip ("hanging bottle") approach. This method connects a plastic hose to the engine's vacuum solenoid valve and uses the air pressure in the hollow tube to draw the cleaning agent from the infusion bottle into the engine. As the cleaning agent exits through the exhaust pipe, it cleans the three-way catalytic converter. Composition of the Three-Way Catalytic Converter: The three-way catalytic converter generally consists of four parts: the shell, damping layer, substrate, and catalyst coating. Shell: Made of stainless steel to prevent oxidation scale from peeling off, which could clog the substrate. Damping Layer: Composed of gaskets or wire mesh pads, it serves to seal, insulate, and secure the substrate. To protect the substrate from damage due to vibration, thermal deformation, and other factors, the gasket is made of expanded mica and aluminum silicate fibers, bonded with adhesive. Substrate: Made of honeycomb-shaped ceramic material, though many also use metal (including stainless steel) materials. Catalyst: Composed of precious metals such as platinum, rhodium, and palladium, sprayed onto the substrate to form the purifying agent.

What is the suitable speed for a new car?

A new car is suitable for driving at 50 to 80 km/h. Precautions for driving a new car: Warm up before starting: Before starting, turn the key to the second position and wait for 5-10 seconds before ignition. Avoid high-speed driving: New cars have speed limits during the initial driving phase. Domestic cars are generally limited to 40-70 km/h, while imported cars usually require that within the first 1,000 km, the speed should not exceed 80% of the maximum speed when the throttle is fully open. It is also advised to monitor the engine RPM and speed gauges to ensure both operate at moderate speeds. Avoid overloading: Fully loading a new car can damage its components. Avoid long-distance trips: Long-distance driving in a new car increases the continuous working time of the engine, leading to accelerated wear of components. Initial maintenance: During the break-in period, regularly check the engine oil, coolant, and battery electrolyte levels, and replenish them promptly if they are low. Avoid emergency braking: Emergency braking not only shocks the braking system during the break-in period but also increases the impact load on the chassis and engine. Therefore, avoid emergency braking within the first 300 km of driving. The break-in distance for a new car: The break-in period for a new car is approximately 1,000 to 1,500 km.

No Switch Button for Converting Regular Quota to New Energy?

Regular quotas cannot be converted to new energy quotas, and there is no switch button available. Quota Validity Period: The quota holder must complete all procedures, including vehicle purchase tax payment or tax exemption certification, used car sales invoice issuance, and vehicle registration, with the tax, market supervision, and vehicle management departments within the 12-month validity period. Failure to complete these procedures within the deadline will be considered an automatic forfeiture of the quota. New Quota Regulations: A new quota allocation method has been introduced, prioritizing 'car-free families' through lottery and point-based ranking. 'Car-free families' are given significantly higher chances of winning regular quota lotteries and larger new energy quota allocations compared to individuals, addressing their vehicle ownership needs as the core aspect of this policy optimization.

Do You Need to Learn Small Vehicles Before Learning Large Vehicles?

No, you can directly learn to drive a B2 vehicle. The process of obtaining a driver's license: Registration, traffic regulations study, subject one test, subject two test, subject three test. Test content: The test subjects include traffic regulations and related knowledge, as well as three items: field driving, road driving (including safe and civilized driving). Specific test contents include reversing into a garage, narrow road U-turns, parallel parking, hill start, right-angle turns, curve driving, emergency braking, tunnels, toll booth card collection straight-line driving, lane changing, passing intersections, pulling over, etc.

What does 'ready' mean on a car?

'Ready' on a car indicates that the vehicle has completed all preparations, started successfully, and is ready to go at any time. This is how electric vehicles and hybrid new energy vehicles display their startup status. After a new energy vehicle starts, since there is no engine roar, it is difficult for the owner to determine whether the vehicle has started successfully. Therefore, a 'ready' indicator light is used to inform the driver. Common car dashboard lights include: 1. Tail lights or headlights; 2. High beam indicator; 3. Emergency warning and turn signal indicators, which display when emergency warning lights or turn signals are activated; 4. Front fog lights, located below the front of the vehicle.
