How to Distinguish Between China IV and China V Standards?

Methods to distinguish between China IV and China V standards are as follows: 1. For vehicles that have already obtained the environmental protection inspection compliance label, the emission standard can be checked on the original or duplicate copy of the label. Alternatively, you can log in to the Motor Vehicle Environmental Protection Website and enter the vehicle model number and engine model in the New Vehicle Compliance Query System. 2. According to the national plan, the China VI emission standard is scheduled to be implemented on July 1, 2020, just three years after the full implementation of the China V standard. In key regions such as the Beijing-Tianjin-Hebei area and its surrounding regions, the Yangtze River Delta, the Fenwei Plain, the Pearl River Delta, and the Chengdu-Chongqing region, the China VI standard will be implemented ahead of schedule. 3. The China VI standard raises the threshold by nearly 50% compared to the current China V standard and is slightly stricter than the current international strictest emission limit—the Euro VI standard. Once officially implemented, the China VI standard will become the world's most stringent motor vehicle emission standard.

What Are the Hazards of Oil Emulsification to the Engine?

The Hazards of Oil Emulsification: Oil emulsification can lead to a reduction in various performance aspects of the oil, not only affecting the vehicle's power performance and fuel economy but also increasing the engine's wear. Over time, this can easily lead to bearing seizure and even complete engine failure. Causes of Oil Emulsification: 1. Cylinder Liner Damage: This is likely due to cracks in the cylinder liner, allowing coolant to seep through the cylinder wall directly into the oil pan. Alternatively, it could be due to aging of the cylinder liner sealing ring, in which case the seal should be checked. 2. Engine Water Plug Leakage: If the engine water plug is severely aged, it will definitely leak. In this case, coolant will mix directly into the oil pan, making regular inspection of the water plug crucial. 3. Radiator Damage: Additionally, damage to the oil cooler pipes can also cause water to enter the oil. 4. Cylinder Head Gasket Damage: Due to prolonged high-pressure conditions inside the cylinder, the cylinder liner may become damaged, causing the oil and coolant passages to interconnect, leading to oil emulsification.

What year is China V vehicle?

China V emission standard vehicles started production in 2012 and were implemented in 2013. The China V emission control level is equivalent to the European Euro 5 emission standard currently in effect. Here is relevant information about China V: 1. China V vehicles are those that comply with the 'National Fifth Stage Motor Vehicle Pollutant Emission Standard'. The motor vehicle pollutant emission standard was established to implement environmental protection laws, reduce and prevent vehicle exhaust pollution, protect the ecological environment, and ensure human health. 2. The European Union has been implementing this standard since 2009, which imposes stricter limits on nitrogen oxides, hydrocarbons, carbon monoxide, and particulate matter from motor vehicles. From China I to China IV, each upgrade in the standard reduces single-vehicle pollution by 30% to 50%. The China V standard was implemented nationwide on January 1, 2017. 3. Shortly after the implementation of the China V standard, the China VI standard was quickly put on the agenda. Many regions implemented the China VI standard ahead of schedule. For example, starting from July 1, 2019, all newly registered vehicles in Guangdong Province must comply with the China VI emission standard. At that time, only China VI standard new vehicles were available on the market, and vehicles transferred from other regions also had to meet the China VI standard.

How often are 7-seater vehicles inspected now?

7-seater vehicles and models with more than 7 seats are inspected every 2 years for the first 6 years, annually for 7-seater vehicles aged 6-15 years, and every 6 months for 7-seater vehicles over 15 years old. Non-commercial small and mini passenger vehicles with 7-9 seats within 6 years are included in the exemption from inspection; for non-commercial small and mini passenger vehicles over 6 years but less than 10 years, the inspection frequency is adjusted from once a year to once every two years. The documents required for vehicle annual inspection are as follows: 1. Owner's ID card. 2. Original vehicle license. 3. Valid compulsory traffic insurance policy. 4. Current year's vehicle and vessel tax payment (or exemption) certificate (the vehicle and vessel tax certificate is usually included in the compulsory traffic insurance policy).

What are front and rear position lights?

Front and rear position lights are essentially the vehicle's width indicator lights. These lights primarily indicate the presence of a vehicle and its approximate width, aiding other vehicles in judging distance during oncoming traffic or overtaking. Front and rear position lights are typically installed at the front and rear of the vehicle. More details are as follows: 1. The headlight assembly at the front of a vehicle includes: clearance lights, front position lights, high/low beam headlights, turn signals, and fog lights, which may sometimes be integrated into a single unit. The rear light assembly consists of: rear position lights, brake lights, reverse lights, turn signals, and license plate lights. 2. Front and rear position lights, commonly referred to as parking lights or width indicator lights, serve to indicate the vehicle's presence and approximate width, facilitating judgment for other vehicles during encounters or overtaking maneuvers. 3. The brake signal light, commonly known as the brake light, is a warning light that alerts following vehicles that the vehicle has applied braking. Installed at the rear of the vehicle and emitting red light when brakes are applied, its brightness significantly exceeds that of rear position lights (typically five times brighter) due to its critical safety function. It remains clearly visible even at distances exceeding 100 meters during daytime.

What is the Best Tire Pressure for High-Speed Driving?

The standard tire pressure for high-speed driving ranges between 2.2-2.5 bar, varying depending on the brand and model of the vehicle. Other factors to consider for appropriate tire pressure include: 1. Winter: It is advisable to slightly increase the tire pressure by about 0.2 bar above the standard tire pressure. 2. Summer: For vehicles parked outdoors, the tire pressure can generally be about 0.1 bar lower than the standard to prevent blowouts due to high temperatures. Additional Information: 1. Empty/Half-Load: Follow the lower limit of the standard tire pressure (the tire pressure indicated on the vehicle's sticker can serve as a reference for the minimum tire pressure). 2. Full Load: When fully loaded, follow the upper limit of the standard tire pressure (the maximum tire pressure indicated on the tire can serve as a reference for the theoretical maximum tire pressure).
