Open all the car windows. When the air inside the car circulates with the outdoor air, the fog on the windshield can quickly disappear. Below is some relevant information about the car windshield: 1. Car windshields have curved deformations at the edges where they contact the car body. This curvature causes the scenery outside the car to distort when passing through the curve, affecting the vision of passengers inside and creating a deceleration effect. It's similar to looking at a newspaper through a magnifying glass—objects in the center appear to move slowly, while those at the edges move quickly. Additionally, the edges of the windshield often have fading dotted black decorative borders, which also contribute to this effect. 2. The entire glass has curvature. While driving, the curvature of the glass causes a gradual slowing of the movement of reference points on either side of the car, giving the impression that the windshield has a deceleration effect. This shares some similarities with a magnifying glass.

What to Do If 12 Points Are Deducted from Your Driver's License?

There are two scenarios when 12 points are deducted from your driver's license: 1. During the probationary period: If all 12 points are deducted during the probationary period, the license will be revoked and you will need to retake the driving test. 2. After the probationary period: If 12 points are deducted, you must attend a seven-day course on road traffic safety laws and regulations, followed by the subject one test. Upon passing the test, the points will be cleared, and your driver's license will be returned. If you fail, you must retake the course and test. Additional information: 1. Learning period and content: The course lasts 7 days, with classes held every morning. Topics include traffic violation points and penalties, driver psychology and traffic safety, and road traffic safety laws and regulations. After completing the course, the school will issue a 'Training Completion Certificate.' However, this certificate does not mean you have regained your license. It serves as a prerequisite for taking the test; only those who pass the test can retrieve their license. 2. Taking the test: After completing the course, the vehicle management office must administer a test on road traffic safety laws, regulations, and related knowledge within 20 days. If you pass, the points will be cleared, and your license will be returned. If you fail, you must continue with the course and retake the test.

Which retains its value better, the large emblem or the upright emblem on the Mercedes-Benz E300?

Mercedes-Benz C-Class, E-Class, and S-Class sedans all offer two styles for consumers to choose from: the large emblem and the upright emblem. The large emblem looks more sporty and bold, while the upright emblem appears more elegant and dignified, suitable for business occasions. The following factors affect the resale value: 1. Brand influence: Brand influence is one of the decisive factors for resale value. Generally, French cars rank lower than American cars, which rank lower than domestic cars, which rank lower than German cars, which rank lower than or equal to Japanese cars. Currently, the luxury brands with better resale value in the market are Mercedes-Benz, BMW, and Lexus, with Audi in the middle range, while Cadillac, Infiniti, Acura, and other luxury brands have relatively lower resale value. 2. Vehicle ownership: Vehicle ownership, or sales volume, is the result of cumulative sales over the years. Generally, the higher the vehicle ownership, the higher the resale value, although some niche cars with special value (e.g., Renault Mégane RS, Mitsubishi EVO9, etc.) also have very high resale value. The Mercedes-Benz E-Class has relatively high ownership, so its resale value is also relatively high. 3. Configuration and color: Top-tier models, due to their higher original prices, tend to depreciate more than mid- or low-tier models of the same series. Additionally, if the color of the car is too unconventional, it can also affect the resale value.

How to Distinguish Between Flood-Damaged Cars and Water-Forded Cars?

Flood-damaged cars and water-forded cars can be distinguished through the following 7 methods: 1. Smell the vehicle. Normal car maintenance does not cause odors inside the car. Generally, flood-damaged cars will have a pungent fishy smell inside. 2. Check the comfort of the seats and the condition of the seat tracks and screws. Typically, flood-damaged cars are treated by removing the seats, rinsing them with clean water, drying them, and then exposing them to the sun. However, sun exposure can damage the seats, cause the foam padding to age, and reduce elasticity, making them feel harder. 3. Inspect all visible metal parts in the cabin for signs of rust. Conduct a comprehensive inspection from multiple angles to make a judgment, avoiding generalizations. 4. Check the engine compartment: Open the hood and inspect the air filter housing and intake pipes for water marks, including traces left after the water has dried. Carefully examine whether there is mud or water residue on the wiring harnesses, connectors, and other connection points in the engine compartment. 5. Check the fuse box for water marks or mud, and observe the color of the fuses. Normal fuses are silver with a good luster. Flood-damaged fuses will lose their shine, become dull, and turn gray. Additionally, inspect the untreated metal parts and screws in the engine compartment for obvious rust. If all parts of the car show such signs, the car might be flood-damaged. 6. Check the luggage compartment: Remove all the tools from the trunk and inspect for water marks or mud. Check whether the spare tire's mounting hardware and tools show signs of rust. These areas are easy to inspect, and careful examination can reveal issues. 7. Other inspections are also essential: Check the condition of the front and rear light assemblies to see if they match the car's age and if there are yellowing marks from water immersion. Also, examine the rust level of the brake discs to see if it matches the car's age, which can also serve as a reference for identifying flood-damaged cars.

Why does engine oil turn black so quickly?

The main reasons for engine oil turning black in a short time are: 1. The effect of detergent dispersants; 2. Oxidation of the oil during use. If the oil becomes viscous and produces acidic byproducts after some use, it should be replaced promptly to avoid damaging engine components and affecting normal operation. Modern engine oils generally contain detergent dispersants that absorb carbon deposits from combustion and oxides from the oil to maintain engine cleanliness. Therefore, newly changed oil turning black doesn't necessarily indicate a dirty engine - just follow the recommended oil change intervals.

Will losing the car maintenance manual affect the warranty?

Losing the car maintenance manual will not affect the warranty. Here are the reasons: 1. The maintenance manual is not a warranty certificate: The maintenance manual is just a reference booklet for the car owner to learn about the maintenance of various systems, including the engine system, transmission system, air conditioning system, cooling system, fuel system, power steering system, etc. 2. The maintenance manual can be reissued: If the car was purchased from an authorized 4S store, the purchase will be recorded in the manufacturer's online system, and the maintenance manual can be reissued by querying the vehicle's VIN.
