Normally, the vehicle certificate is handed over to the owner upon vehicle delivery. Below are specific details about the vehicle certificate when purchasing a car: 1. Vehicle Certificate: The vehicle certificate is an indispensable document when taking delivery of the car. Without it, the car cannot be registered. Some 4S stores may mortgage the vehicle certificate to the bank. Only after the consumer takes delivery of the car will the 4S store repay the bank and then provide the certificate to the owner. This is also the reason why many 4S stores cannot issue the certificate promptly. 2. Documents required when taking delivery from a 4S store: Vehicle certificate, purchase invoice, vehicle conformity certificate, various maintenance and warranty manuals (three-guarantee manual, maintenance manual, user manual).

As someone who frequently helps friends with car purchases, I can tell you that the vehicle certificate is typically provided by the dealer on the day of delivery. The reason is that the vehicle certificate is a crucial document for new car registration and licensing, and dealers are obligated to deliver all necessary paperwork along with the vehicle. If you don't receive it promptly, it might be because some 4S stores use the certificate as collateral with banks for working capital, which can cause a delay of a few days. However, under normal circumstances, it should be confirmed before pickup. Don't forget, the certificate affects subsequent transfers and safe driving. If it's not provided, you should immediately urge the salesperson or check the contract terms. Learning more about these details before buying a car can help you avoid many pitfalls. I always advise everyone to carefully verify all documents upon delivery.

Where is the air conditioning filter of Chery A3 located?

The air conditioning filter of Chery A3 is located under the windshield water deflector. Relevant details are as follows: 1. If the filter is dirty, clean it by blowing compressed air from the opposite side. Hold the air gun about 5cm away from the filter and blow at a pressure of 500kPa for approximately 2 minutes. The air conditioning filter is prone to accumulating a lot of dust; blowing away the loose dust with compressed air is sufficient. Never wash it with water, as this can easily damage it. 2. When the car is running with the air conditioning on, it draws in external air into the cabin. However, the air contains various particles such as dust, pollen, soot, grinding particles, ozone, odors, nitrogen oxides, sulfur dioxide, carbon dioxide, benzene, etc. Without the air conditioning filter, these particles can enter the cabin, not only polluting the car's air conditioning system and reducing the performance of the cooling system but also causing allergic reactions, lung damage, irritation from ozone, and the influence of odors, all of which can affect driving safety.

How Long Does It Usually Take to Receive a Text Message After Running a Red Light?

After running a red light, the text message notification for the violation captured by traffic cameras is usually received within 3 to 7 days, with a maximum delay of around 13 days. However, some cities have now introduced "instant electronic police capture alerts," where you can receive a text message notification within 5 to 10 minutes of being captured. However, this notification does not equate to a confirmed violation; it merely serves as a capture alert. The final determination of whether it constitutes a violation still takes 3 to 7 days. If it is indeed a violation, you will receive another text message notification. For traffic violations captured by surveillance cameras, vehicle owners generally do not receive the violation text message immediately. There is a time delay, and the duration may vary. This is because after the electronic camera captures the violation, the relevant violation information needs to be transmitted through a dedicated channel to the traffic police management center, where it is compiled and then forwarded to the relevant traffic police department staff for verification. Once confirmed as a violation, the system automatically retrieves the vehicle owner's phone number based on the license plate information and sends the violation details via text message to the owner. After receiving the violation text message, the vehicle owner must go to the traffic police department where the violation occurred to address the issue within one month before the vehicle's annual inspection. Generally, if a vehicle owner suspects a violation, they can use 15 days as a benchmark. If no violation text message is received after 15 days, it is likely that no violation was recorded. Traffic Violation Query Methods: Traffic violation queries refer to checking motor vehicle violations of traffic regulations through online platforms or query terminals. Methods for querying traffic violations include website queries, phone queries, text message queries, and mobile app queries. Website Query: You can search for "vehicle violation query" and enter your vehicle information to check. Phone Query: To inquire about violations, you can call the local 114 (area code + 114) or 12580 for confirmation. Violations can only be processed at the location where the violation occurred or at the traffic police department where the vehicle's license plate was issued. For on-the-spot violations, such as those directly caught by a traffic officer, they must be processed at the location of the violation. Text Message Query: Open the text message interface on your phone; enter "WZ" followed by your license plate number and color in the message body; enter 1062650001 as the recipient and click send. Mobile App Query: Open the "Traffic Management 12123" app, select "Violation Query," and find any unprocessed violations to resolve them.

Why is the Magotan's air conditioning not cooling?

Here are the specific reasons and solutions for a car's air conditioning not cooling: 1. Insufficient or low refrigerant: This may be caused by minor refrigerant leakage. You can observe it through the sight glass on the dryer tank. When the air conditioning is running normally, if there are continuous bubbles in the sight glass, it indicates insufficient refrigerant. If obvious bubble flipping occurs, it means the refrigerant is severely insufficient. In this case, simply adding refrigerant will solve the problem. 2. Loose drive belt of the car's air conditioning compressor: If the drive belt is loose, the compressor will slip during operation, leading to reduced transmission efficiency and a drop in compressor speed. This results in decreased delivery of compressed refrigerant, causing the car's air conditioning to not cool. If the compressor drive belt is too loose, it should be tightened. If it cannot be turned by hand, it means the belt is too tight and should be loosened slightly. If tightening is ineffective or the belt shows cracks, aging, or other damage, it should be replaced with a new one.
