Solutions for when the car shows low tire pressure: If the tire is severely underinflated and significantly below the standard tire pressure, you should immediately stop the car, adjust the tire pressure to the normal value, and then continue driving. If there are no tools on the car to replenish the tire pressure, making it impossible to handle the situation yourself, you must contact a 4S shop or a professional auto repair shop by phone to request assistance from the staff. The standard tire pressure for car tires should be based on the values recommended by the manufacturer. Due to differences in vehicle models and brands, the standard tire pressure for each car tire varies. The manufacturer's recommended values can usually be found in the following places: 1. The vehicle user manual; 2. The label next to the driver's door; 3. The drawer next to the driver's seat; 4. The fuel tank cap door.

As a seasoned driver who hits the road daily, I pay special attention to safety details. The moment I see a tire pressure warning, I immediately slow down and find a safe place to pull over—never ignore it and keep driving, as low pressure can significantly increase the risk of a blowout. Then, I check the tire pressure monitoring system (TPMS). If it indicates which specific tire has an issue, I prioritize that one; if not, I manually press each tire or use a portable tire pressure gauge to measure them one by one. The recommended pressure is usually listed on the door label, such as 32-35 PSI, and can be topped up using an air pump. If the tire still loses air after refilling, there’s likely a nail puncture, and it’s best to head straight to a repair shop for inspection and patching. Make it a habit to check tire pressure every two weeks—it saves fuel, extends tire life, ensures stable handling, and prevents accidents. Remember: safety first. Don’t cut corners by ignoring that little warning light.

How to Obtain the Vehicle Annual Inspection Sticker Online?

There is no online regional service available for obtaining the vehicle annual inspection sticker; you need to visit the local vehicle management office to collect it. Vehicles are required to undergo annual inspections as per regulations, and upon passing the inspection, the relevant annual inspection sticker must be obtained. For vehicles that fall under the six-year exemption from inspection, the vehicle does not need to be driven there. Simply bring the vehicle registration certificate, the ID card of the person named on the registration, and a copy of the valid compulsory insurance policy. Below are the relevant details: 1. Check the traffic management website to see if there are any traffic violation records before the annual inspection. Proceed to the nearest inspection station to handle the procedure. The address can be found in the traffic section of the public security service website or directly searched using Baidu Maps by querying for motor vehicle safety inspection stations. 2. Upon arriving at the service window, make the payment and collect the annual inspection application form. Fill in the identity information as per the vehicle registration certificate. After completing the form, submit the copy of the valid compulsory insurance policy, ID card, and vehicle registration certificate to the staff. The staff will review the documents. If all documents are complete and there are no outstanding traffic violations, the vehicle management office will print the annual inspection sticker and also indicate the expiration date of this inspection on the duplicate of the driving license.

How to Measure Car Air Conditioning Pressure?

To check car air conditioning refrigeration system faults with a pressure gauge, it is generally divided into two states: compressor stopped and running. After the compressor has been stopped for more than 10 hours, the high and low pressures of the compressor should be the same value. If the displayed values of high and low pressures are not equal, it indicates a blockage inside the system, and the expansion valve, liquid storage bottle, and pipeline should be inspected. Here are the relevant details: When the compressor is running, control the engine speed at 1500-2000r/min, start the air conditioning to make the compressor work. Generally, the low-pressure side pressure is about 150-250kpa, and the high-pressure side pressure is about 1400-1600kpa. If the pressure indication does not match the normal value, fault diagnosis can be performed as follows. 1. Both high and low-pressure gauges indicate values lower than normal. This may be due to insufficient refrigerant. During inspection, the high-pressure pipe may be slightly warm, and the low-pressure pipe slightly cold, but the temperature difference is not significant. Bubbles can be observed in the sight glass every 1-2 seconds. At this time, check for any leakage points, repair the leak, and then replenish the refrigerant. 2. The low-pressure gauge shows a value much lower than normal. At this time, a blurry mist flow can be seen in the sight glass, there is no temperature difference between high and low pressures, and the air conditioning is not cold, indicating a severe refrigerant leak.

Can You Drive on the Highway Without Installing ETC?

You can drive on the highway without installing ETC. ETC is not mandatory. Since January 1, 2020, vehicles without ETC no longer enjoy various toll reduction policies, except during holidays when tolls are waived. However, they can only pass through manual toll lanes at toll stations, which may be inconvenient during peak holiday periods. ETC is simply an alternative toll collection method and does not affect access to highways. There are two toll collection methods on highways: manual toll collection and ETC toll collection. ETC stands for Electronic Toll Collection. To apply for ETC, you need to provide the original and photocopies of the vehicle owner's valid ID and vehicle registration certificate. If someone else is applying on behalf of the owner, they must also provide their own valid ID. The photocopy of the vehicle registration certificate must include the page with the most recent annual inspection stamp. Additionally, a bank card for deducting highway tolls is required. Applicants must be between 18 and 60 years old, and the vehicle must be registered under their name. How ETC works: An onboard electronic tag installed on the vehicle's windshield communicates with microwave antennas in the ETC lane at toll stations. Using computer networking technology, the system settles payments with the bank in the background, allowing vehicles to pass through highway or bridge toll stations without stopping to pay. Benefits of installing ETC: Time-saving: Eliminates the hassle of waiting in queues. Green and eco-friendly: Reduces noise, exhaust emissions, and pollution since vehicles do not stop at toll stations. Cost-effective: Reduces vehicle wear and fuel consumption by minimizing frequent starts and stops. Increased efficiency: ETC lanes can theoretically improve traffic flow by 2-3 times, making traditional ETC faster, more advanced, and more efficient. Compared to license plate payment, ETC technology is more mature and advantageous.

How to Distinguish Between Different Generations of Accord?

What is the function of a car exhaust pipe?

The function of a car exhaust pipe is to reduce vibration and noise, facilitate installation, and extend the lifespan of the exhaust muffler system. Its main material is stainless steel. The car exhaust bellows, also known as the car exhaust hose, is installed in the exhaust pipe between the engine exhaust manifold and the muffler, providing flexible connection for the entire exhaust system. The exhaust pipe connects external elements with the interior of the car, primarily expelling internal exhaust gases. However, improper driving can allow harmful substances to enter the car interior through the exhaust pipe, so maintaining the exhaust pipe is essentially maintaining the car's interior. Exhaust pipes are mainly used in light vehicles, micro vehicles, and buses.

What is the Principle of Engine Start-Stop Technology?

Engine start-stop technology principle: When the vehicle stops moving due to traffic congestion or at an intersection, the driver presses the brake pedal and shifts to neutral. At this point, the start-stop system automatically detects that the engine is idling without gear engagement, the wheel speed sensors of the anti-lock braking system show zero, and the electronic battery sensor indicates sufficient energy for restarting. Once these three conditions are met, the engine automatically stops rotating. Engine automatic start-stop is a system that automatically shuts off the engine when the vehicle temporarily stops during driving (such as waiting at a red light) and automatically restarts the engine when it's time to move forward again.
