Car tires are inflated using a valve. Below is relevant information about tires: 1. Main materials of tires: The primary material of tires is rubber, which has the characteristic of aging after prolonged use or storage. This leads to significant changes in the tire's physical properties such as hardness and wear resistance. Continued use of aged tires may lightly affect vehicle performance or, in severe cases, result in a tire blowout. 2. Tire lifespan: Generally, all-season or economy tires have a lifespan of 3-5 years or approximately 50,000 kilometers. Under normal conditions, tires are sufficiently usable for one year after leaving the factory. However, high-performance tires have a much shorter lifespan of only 20,000-30,000 kilometers. If the price is reduced, purchasing them may also be considered.

What is the XLE in Toyota?

The 'XLE' on the rear of Toyota vehicles denotes the trim level of the model, similar to LE and SE levels, with XLE being the top-tier configuration. 2. Each automaker has its own naming system.

Why does replacing the hood at a 4S shop require painting?

Hoods, doors, bumpers, etc., all need to be painted at the 4S shop because they are not painted during transportation. Automotive paint can be classified into the following three types: 1. Standard Paint: Standard paint is the most common type of automotive paint and has been around the longest. Its characteristics include low cost and simple application, but it lacks high gloss and surface hardness, making it particularly prone to scratches. 2. Metallic Paint: Also known as metallic flake paint, it contains fine aluminum particles in its base. When light hits these particles, it reflects off them, creating a sparkling metallic appearance. This type of paint gives a pleasant, light, and modern feel. 3. Pearl Paint: Also called mica paint, it operates on a similar principle to metallic paint but uses mica particles coated with titanium dioxide and iron oxide instead of aluminum. When light strikes the mica particles, it first takes on the color of titanium dioxide and iron oxide, then undergoes complex refraction and interference within the mica particles.

Should You Take Photos or Move the Car First After a Highway Accident?

After an accident on the highway, you should first take photos of the scene and then move the vehicle to a location that does not obstruct traffic before calling the police. There are three key points to note on highways: 1. Entering the highway: You should accelerate to over 60 km/h as soon as possible. Vehicles entering from the ramp must increase speed in the acceleration lane and should not hinder vehicles already on the main lane when merging. They should drive in the outer lane; 2. While driving: Vehicles should stay in their designated lanes. Small passenger cars should drive in the middle lane, while large buses and trucks should drive in the right lane; 3. Avoid arbitrary lane changes: When changing lanes or overtaking, you must signal in advance. At night, you should also switch between high and low beams to confirm safety before changing lanes. Overtaking is only allowed using adjacent lanes.
