Civic DHW7180 is the 2009 model year. What does DHW7180 mean: DHW: Manufacturer identifier, representing the manufacturer, product name, national standard, indicating a small passenger car 18: Represents the displacement, 1.8 liters 0: Manufacturer identifier, representing the first-generation product Dongfeng Honda Civic 2014 model manufacturer model: The manufacturer model of Dongfeng Honda Civic is DHW7180B. Honda VIN representation: J stands for Japan, meaning the car is manufactured in Japan H stands for Honda or Acura, Honda currently exclusively uses the letter H M represents the manufacturing plant 5 represents the engine type Additionally, this car has a 2.0 displacement, and the model year should be 1982. But the tenth digit is 0, which is very confusing and shouldn't appear. So it should be C. Because there is no code 0 for the tenth digit. 2 represents the assembly plant code, which is the code for the main assembly line factory.

What lights should be used when following a car at close range at night?

When following a car at close range at night, you should turn on the low beam. Regulations for using lights when driving at night: When meeting a vehicle from the opposite direction on a road without central isolation facilities or a center line, you cannot use the high beam within 150 meters of the oncoming vehicle; when meeting a non-motorized vehicle on a narrow bridge or narrow road without central isolation facilities or a center line, you cannot use the high beam; when driving at night in conditions with no streetlights, poor lighting, or low visibility due to fog, rain, snow, or dust, you cannot use the high beam when following a car closely in the same direction; when passing sharp curves, slopes, arched bridges, crosswalks, or intersections without traffic signals, you should alternately use the high and low beams as a signal. Violators will be fined and penalized with demerit points. The following situations require the use of low beams: Driving in areas without streetlights after dark or during dusk when it is relatively dark or at dawn when light is just appearing requires the use of low beams; in heavy fog, snow, or rain when visibility is obstructed, low beams must be used even during the day; on some roads where lighting is available but insufficient, low beams should also be used.

Is It Normal for New Cars to Have Different Tire Brands on the Front and Rear?

Under normal circumstances, all four tires of a new car should be of the same brand unless there was an assembly error at the factory or the tires were replaced later. In such cases, it is recommended to contact the 4S store or manufacturer to confirm the specific reason. Potential impacts of having different tire brands: Different tread patterns can result in varying contact areas with the ground, leading to uneven wear and potential alignment issues over time. Tires from different manufacturers may have significant structural differences, and mixing them can increase the risk of accidents. Different tread patterns and brands can also severely affect braking performance, wear patterns, and high-speed performance. Necessity of rotating front and rear tires: Rotating the front and rear tires helps prevent uneven wear, also known as tire cupping. Causes of uneven wear include suspension design, parameters during wheel alignment, and driving style. Regular tire rotation can extend tire lifespan, and it is recommended to rotate them every 20,000 kilometers. Car tires are one of the most critical components of a vehicle.

Are 300-12 and 16X30 the Same?

300-12 and 16X30 are different and not interchangeable. Below is an introduction to tire models and their functions: Meaning of tire model numbers: Most car tire models are marked in a format like 215/70R15. The numbers represent the following: 215 indicates the tire section width in millimeters, typically ranging from 145 to 285mm in increments of 10mm; 70 is the aspect ratio, representing the percentage ratio of the tire sidewall height to the tire section width, with 70 meaning 70%. Functions of tires: To transmit traction and braking torque, ensuring good adhesion between the wheels and the road surface, thereby improving the vehicle's power, braking, and passability; to work with the vehicle suspension to cushion impacts during driving and dampen resulting vibrations. They prevent severe vibrations and premature damage to vehicle components, adapt to high-speed performance while reducing driving noise, and ensure safety, handling stability, comfort, and fuel efficiency.

Do you need to watch the traffic light when turning left?

You need to watch the traffic light when turning left. If the traffic light at the intersection you need to pass through is a circular light and there is no left-turn light, you must wait for the straight green light to turn on before you can turn left. If the traffic light on the road is an arrow light marked for a left turn, you need to wait for the left-turn traffic light to display green before you can turn left. The regulations for running a red light and precautions for crossing the stop line are as follows: Regulations for running a red light: According to the new regulations for running a red light, a vehicle must pass the stop line, then pass through the entire intersection to be considered as running a red light. Precautions for crossing the stop line: If you have already crossed the stop line, stop immediately and do not move further. Reversing can easily cause a collision with the vehicle behind or pedestrians crossing the road.

Is Maintenance Required Before Annual Vehicle Inspection?

It is advisable to perform maintenance before the annual inspection, including changing the engine oil, oil filter, and air filter, checking the driving system, braking system, steering system, and power system, replenishing any insufficient fluids, inspecting various electrical equipment, and checking for any rust or damage on the vehicle's exterior. The items tested during the annual inspection and situations that may cause the vehicle to fail the inspection are as follows: Items tested during the annual inspection: If an on-site inspection is required, the vehicle must be driven onto the inspection line. On the inspection line, the vehicle's braking system, lighting system, exhaust emissions, chassis, etc., will be tested. Situations that may cause the vehicle to fail the inspection: If any test item does not meet the standards, the vehicle will not pass the annual inspection. During the on-site inspection, it is also necessary to bring the vehicle registration certificate, compulsory traffic insurance policy, and the owner's ID card.

What are the introductions of various Kawasaki series?

Kawasaki motorcycles can be divided into multiple series such as the Ninja series, Z series, and VERSYS series. Below are the detailed introductions: Ninja series: The Kawasaki Ninja belongs to the sports bike series. This type of motorcycle not only features a cool and stylish appearance but also boasts powerful performance. Among them, the Ninja 400 has become the preferred choice for many riders due to its relatively low price. However, this model's riding posture is not very comfortable, and the body's turning flexibility is not high enough, making it less suitable for long-distance riding. Z series: The Kawasaki Z series belongs to the street bike category. Although the appearance of this series is not as aggressive as the Ninja series, it excels in practicality. The seats and footpeg height are relatively low, and it features higher handlebars, providing riders with a more comfortable experience. It is also more suitable for beginners, and even long-distance rides are less likely to cause fatigue. VERSYS series: The Kawasaki VERSYS series is also known as the adventure bike. As the name suggests, adventure bikes require long endurance, and 'Versys' in Kawasaki's lineup also implies versatility. Therefore, the VERSYS series is suitable for riders who enjoy long-distance travel, offering superior comfort, handling, and reliability.
