Changing the badge from Mercedes 260 to 300 will result in penalty points, as the vehicle badge is not allowed to be altered. Reasons why the badge cannot be changed: The vehicle badge, along with the body color and license plate, serves as crucial identification information for motor vehicles. Unauthorized modifications can pose significant risks to vehicle management and road traffic control. According to the relevant regulations in the "Motor Vehicle Management Act," privately changing a vehicle badge is illegal. Vehicles with altered badges will fail the annual inspection, and unauthorized badge modifications will also incur penalty points. The vehicle badge is an integral part of the vehicle identification number (VIN) and cannot be arbitrarily altered; it is a key component of the annual inspection process. Penalties for unauthorized badge modifications: No individual or organization is permitted to engage in the following activities: assembling motor vehicles without authorization or altering the registered structure, construction, or features of a motor vehicle. Changing the vehicle model, engine number, chassis number, or vehicle identification number (VIN); forging, altering, or using forged or altered motor vehicle registration certificates, license plates, driving licenses, inspection certificates, or insurance marks; or using registration certificates, license plates, driving licenses, inspection certificates, or insurance marks from other motor vehicles.

What is the handling method for a 12-point violation on the highway?

If the driver's license is Class C, a one-time deduction of 12 points requires retaking the subject one exam. After passing the exam, the driver's license can be reinstated. For Class A or B licenses, the penalties are more severe, involving not only the exam but also a downgrade. Below are detailed introductions about driver's licenses: 1. Classification: The Ministry of Public Security officially issued the "Regulations on the Operation of Motor Vehicle Driver's License Services," implementing a graded system for motor vehicle driver's licenses, dividing them into 15 classes: A1, A2, A3, B1, B2, C1, C2, C3, C4, D, E, F, M, N, and P. 2. Renewal Regulations: If a motor vehicle driver does not accumulate 12 points in any scoring period during the six-year validity of the driver's license, it can be renewed to a ten-year validity license. If no 12 points are accumulated in any scoring period during the ten-year validity, it can be renewed to a long-term valid driver's license.

What light comes on when brake fluid is low?

The handbrake warning light will illuminate when the brake fluid is low. This is because there is a fluid level sensor inside the brake fluid reservoir that monitors the amount of brake fluid. If the brake fluid level drops below the position of this sensor, it indicates a decrease in brake fluid, alerting the driver to inspect the brake system. Brake fluid levels can decrease due to thinning brake pads. Typically, brake pads have a service life of about 80,000 kilometers. Frequent use of the vehicle and frequent braking naturally increase the number of times the brake pads are subjected to friction, leading to faster wear. Conversely, less frequent use of the vehicle and a driving style that relies more on engine braking before applying the brakes will result in much slower brake pad wear. As brake pads wear down over time, the pistons inside the brake calipers gradually extend outward to compensate for the gap created by the worn pads. These pistons are pushed by the pressure generated by the brake fluid when the brakes are applied. The adjustment of the pistons to fill the gap increases the internal space of the brake calipers, which is then filled by the brake fluid. This ultimately causes the brake fluid level in the reservoir to appear significantly lower.

Where is the Dongfeng Fengxing Air Filter Located?

The air filter of Dongfeng Fengxing Lingzhi is located behind the glove box on the passenger side. Upon careful observation behind the glove box, the filter can be seen. Below is relevant information: 1. The air filter of Dongfeng Fengxing Lingzhi ensures that as little unfiltered air as possible enters the car interior; it can filter solid impurities like dust in the air; it can absorb harmful substances and moisture in the air; thus, the role of the car's air filter is very important, requiring car owners to promptly maintain and inspect the air filter. 2. The air filter is like the lungs of a human. When you turn on the external air circulation of the air conditioner, the air filter can block tiny invisible particles in the air, such as dust, powder, etc., as well as various unpleasant odors, ensuring that the air entering the car is clean. If the air filter is very dirty and the filtering function is lost, these invisible bacteria and micro-dust will be blown into the car through the air conditioner and inhaled into the lungs. 3. If the air filter is not properly maintained, it will cause a large amount of dust and dirt to accumulate on the surface of the light filter plate, radiator, evaporator, and fins, leading to airflow blockage. Moreover, the car's air conditioner will also experience reduced cooling and heating effects, and the service life of the air conditioner will be shortened.
