Under FOB terms, booking is a legal obligation of the buyer. If your freight forwarder fails to provide the shipping order (S/O) in time, resulting in vehicles exceeding the free storage period at our warehouse or port, the buyer will have to pay the high daily storage fees before shipment.

Experience turbo lag and power surge during road tests; check for significant oil accumulation at the turbo intake and intercooler connections (slight oil vapor is normal); and use OBD to read the real-time boost pressure peak to see if it meets factory settings.

An OBD scan is one of the most cost-effective tools in a remote pre-purchase inspection, but you need to know what it can and cannot tell you. What it reveals well: current and stored fault codes across the engine, transmission, ABS, airbag, and body modules. A car with dozens of cleared codes in multiple modules may have electrical problems or a history of tampering. It also shows readiness monitors — if all monitors show 「not ready」 on a car that claims to be freshly serviced, the codes were probably cleared recently to hide something. What it reveals with the right software: live data. You can watch engine idle stability, coolant temperature under load, transmission shift behavior, and battery cell voltages on EVs. Abnormal fuel trims or misfire counters can flag worn injectors or coils before any warning light appears. What it cannot do: prove real mileage (odometers can be corrected digitally), detect physical accident repairs, or judge paint and rust. Practical advice: ask your inspector for a full-system scan report with screenshots, not just a 「no codes」 verbal summary. For Chinese brands, make sure the tool supports their protocols — mainstream scanners cover BYD, Geely, and Chery well, but some small brands need brand-specific software.
