The yellowing of the light cover is not due to oxidation, but rather because the material batch number or specification of the selected yellowing cover does not meet the requirements for UV resistance. Here are some repair methods: Mirror Restoration In daily maintenance, you can wash the headlights with soap and water every three months to prevent the accumulation of dirt and avoid yellowing. After cleaning, polish the headlights with a chemically synthesized polishing agent and follow the procedure to wax and protect them. When the car is not in use, park it in a garage or a shaded area. This will help reduce the oxidation of polycarbonate caused by UV exposure to the headlights. Replacing the Headlight Assembly The daytime running light design of this car has a defect. The LED is too close to the light guide strip, and the high temperature of the LED causes the end of the light guide strip to melt. You can go to a 4S shop to replace the car assembly.

What is the meaning of a car's VIN number?

The Vehicle Identification Number, abbreviated as VIN, is a unique seventeen-character alphanumeric code assigned to each vehicle. It provides essential information about the car. The VIN is typically located on the door lock pillar or the door edge adjacent to the lock pillar. If there is insufficient space, it may be placed elsewhere. If consumers cannot locate it, they can refer to the vehicle's user manual. Functions of the VIN: 1. Identifying the vehicle, especially in special circumstances where more precise identification is required. 2. Checking traffic violations, as the VIN is necessary for querying violations. 3. Determining vehicle batches, such as checking if the vehicle is included in a recall.

What Grade of Gasoline Should a Car Use?

Each vehicle has manufacturer-recommended gasoline grades, which should not be altered arbitrarily. Key considerations for refueling include: 1. Refuel during relatively cooler temperatures. 2. Maintain minimal fuel levels for vehicles unused or rarely driven. 3. Avoid refueling during tanker truck unloading. 4. Turn off the engine when refueling gasoline vehicles. 5. Do not mix different gasoline grades. Fuel tank components consist of: fuel cap, baffle, fuel gauge sensor, fuel inlet/return pipes, filler neck, and vent. The fuel cap serves to record: vehicle model, recommended fuel grade, standard tire pressure range, and precautions.

What is the recommended tire pressure for 750r16 tires?

750r16 tires require different inflation pressures depending on the wheel position: 1. Front wheels should be inflated to 8.5 bar. 2. Rear wheels should be inflated to 11 bar. Tire pressure refers to the air pressure inside the tire, which plays a crucial role in vehicle performance and power. The effects of incorrect tire pressure (either too high or too low) include: 1. Reduced tire friction and adhesion, affecting braking performance. 2. Steering wheel vibration and deviation, decreasing driving comfort. 3. Accelerated wear on the central tread pattern, shortening tire lifespan. 4. Increased vehicle vibration, indirectly affecting the lifespan of other components. 5. Degradation of cord and rubber functions, potentially causing delamination or cord breakage, leading to excessive friction with the rim.

Speeding calculation method: (driving speed - speed limit) / speed limit * 100% to obtain the speeding percentage. Below is relevant information about speeding: 1. Definition of speeding: Speeding refers to a driver operating a vehicle at a speed exceeding the legal or regulatory speed limits during driving. 2. Introduction to illegal speeding: Motor vehicle speeding typically includes speeding behavior on highways and on roads other than highways. From the perspective of safe driving practices, exceeding the legally set maximum speed or the speed limit indicated by speed limit signs during vehicle operation, or failing to reduce speed when required by law, all constitute illegal speeding. Penalties are imposed in accordance with Article 86 of the "Road Traffic Safety Law of the People's Republic of China".
