Generally, the drainage holes of a vehicle are located in the following areas: the front windshield of the engine compartment, the four corners inside the sunroof, the lower part of the front and rear doors, inside the fuel tank cap, at the bottom of the spare tire in the trunk, and the gaps between the front and rear headlights and the body fenders. The most prone to clogging are the drainage holes in the engine compartment and the sunroof. The drainage outlets on a car are as follows: 1. Radiator drainage hole: Most radiators tilt upwards, so they may contain a lot of water. For safety, a drainage pipe is designed to drain water using a special conduit. If driving for too long, dirt may accumulate on it, requiring cleaning to prevent vehicle corrosion. 2. Door drainage outlet: This drainage outlet is located within the door's rubber seal, providing a certain level of sound insulation. If water enters the door, it could potentially damage the electronic components inside. 3. Sunroof drainage outlets: Sunroofs usually have several drainage outlets to prevent water accumulation from rain from seeping into the car. 4. Car condensate drainage outlet: The car condensate drainage outlet is typically located under the car's evaporator. Normally, if a puddle of water is found under the car, it indicates an issue with the condensate drainage outlet.

How Many Types of Car Phone Mounts Are There?

Currently, there are two main types of mounts available on the market: suction cup mounts and clip-on mounts. Here is more information about car phone mounts: 1. Suction Cup Car Mount: The suction cup car mount utilizes the adhesive power of a suction cup, allowing it to be placed in various locations inside the car, such as the front windshield or the dashboard, providing drivers with a more intuitive view of their phone. However, when driving on uneven roads, there is a chance the suction cup mount may detach. Additionally, its larger size can obstruct the driver's view, especially when attached to the windshield. 2. Clip-On Car Mount: The clip-on car mount can be secured to the air vents. Compared to the suction cup mount, it is more compact and does not block the driver's line of sight. It is also relatively cheaper. However, its installation position (on the air vents) is lower, which may reduce viewing convenience and require more attention, potentially creating safety hazards. 3. Magnetic Car Mount: As the name suggests, the magnetic car mount uses the mutual attraction of magnets to stay in place, making it less likely to fall off—provided the quality is good. Its small size allows it to be attached anywhere inside the car, making it a top choice for many drivers. However, since it requires 3M adhesive for fixation, it may leave behind hard-to-remove marks. Additionally, a metal plate must be attached to the back of the phone, which may affect its appearance.

How is tax calculated when buying a used car?

Used cars do not require payment of purchase tax or value-added tax, as vehicle purchase tax is levied only once. Below is some information about taxes on used cars: 1. Introduction: Vehicles that have already had vehicle purchase tax levied are not subject to purchase tax again. Therefore, buying a used car that has already paid purchase tax does not require paying it again. However, some vehicle models may have had their purchase tax halved or exempted when purchased new. For these types of cars, the purchase tax must be repaid when sold as used. 2. Regulations: According to Article 14 of the "Vehicle Purchase Tax Law of the People's Republic of China": If tax-exempt or tax-reduced vehicles are no longer eligible for exemption or reduction due to transfer, change of use, etc., the taxpayer must pay the vehicle purchase tax before completing the vehicle transfer registration or change of registration.

Will insurance cover a windshield crack caused by a stone?

No compensation will be provided. If only the windshield is broken and no other parts of the car are damaged, the owner must have purchased auto glass insurance for the insurance company to be responsible for compensation. If both the glass and other parts of the car are damaged in an accident, the car damage insurance can cover the cost. Therefore, having only car damage insurance is not enough to receive compensation. The process of car insurance claims: 1. In case of personal injury, report the incident: If there is personal injury, first report the incident and send the injured to the hospital. Specific matters will be analyzed in detail. Most importantly, keep all hospital receipts ready, as the insurance company will need copies for reimbursement. Without these, the insurance company will not reimburse. 2. If the other party is at fault, go to their insurance company for assessment: If the other party is fully at fault, you can go to their insurance company for assessment. Your second compulsory insurance will not increase. 3. If you are at fault, report the incident: In case of a two-party accident where you are fully at fault, report the incident and go to the insurance company or assessment center with the other party for assessment. 4. Repair the car: Each party repairs their own car. The other party should give you the repair list and invoice. You can pay them directly or reimburse through the insurance company before paying them.
