In the event of heavy rain causing vehicle submersion, insurance companies will provide certain compensation and cover economic losses provided that the vehicle is insured. Below is relevant information: 1. Components: Auto insurance typically consists of two parts: basic insurance and additional coverage. Basic insurance is further divided into vehicle damage insurance and third-party liability insurance. 2. Coverage Details: Vehicle damage insurance compensates for losses to the insured vehicle itself; third-party liability insurance covers damages to targets outside the insured vehicle, such as pedestrians, public property, or other vehicles; passenger liability insurance compensates for personal and property losses to passengers in the insured vehicle; theft insurance covers losses if the vehicle is stolen; and no-deductible coverage ensures 100% compensation in case of an accident. Without no-deductible coverage, the policyholder bears 30% of the deductible for each accident.

How to Distinguish Forged Wheels from Cast Wheels?

Forged wheels and cast wheels mainly differ in the following aspects: 1. Different processes: In terms of mold selection, cast wheels use sand molds, while forged wheels use copper molds; cast wheels undergo natural cooling followed by machining processes such as deburring, surface finishing, and polishing, whereas forged wheels are formed through stamping before undergoing machining. 2. Different costs: The casting process is simpler and relatively lower in cost, while forging, due to its more complex procedures, incurs higher manufacturing costs. 3. Different weights: Forged wheels require continuous stamping to form, resulting in a very dense molecular structure after shaping, which allows them to withstand higher pressure. Therefore, forged wheels are lighter in weight compared to cast wheels of the same size and strength.

How Long Should You Drive to Charge a Dead Car Battery?

A dead car battery typically requires about 4 hours of driving to fully recharge. Here are some precautions for car battery usage: 1. Turn off all lights before shutting down the engine. Older car models do not support automatic power-off after engine shutdown, so manually turn off headlights and interior reading lights before shutting down. 2. Turn off the air conditioning and audio system before shutting down. The air conditioning system involves the compressor and blower, and the audio system is also a high-power electrical device. If not turned off before shutdown, they will automatically start the next time the car is turned on, placing a heavy burden on the battery and causing damage. 3. Avoid leaving the car parked for extended periods. The battery installed in the car will self-discharge over time when left idle. It is best to drive the car at least once a week, with a trip duration of at least 20 minutes, to allow the battery to recharge while driving. 4. Close all windows before shutting down the engine. The power for operating car windows and sunroofs comes from the battery, so it is advisable to close all windows before shutting down the engine.

What are the reasons for a motorcycle not starting after being washed with water?

The reasons for a motorcycle not starting after being washed with water may include the following: 1. Damp spark plug cap: High-voltage leakage prevents ignition, which can be resolved by wiping the spark plug surface dry with a towel. 2. Water entering the carburetor through the throttle cable: It is necessary to turn off the fuel switch, loosen the carburetor lower shell screw to drain water and fuel, then turn on the fuel switch to flush and tighten the lower shell screw. Pump the throttle a few times to start the engine. Precautions: 1. Note 1: Car washes may appear to have complete tools and standardized operations, but they often prioritize efficiency over effectiveness and may cause faults in spark plugs and various circuits. 2. Note 2: Always allow a hot engine to cool down before washing. Sudden cold water rinsing of engine parts, exhaust pipes, etc., can cause thermal contraction and damage oil seals, leading to engine oil leakage.
