As long as the BMW X2 is driven normally, it does not require frequent repairs. However, since the BMW X2 is an imported car, the maintenance costs are relatively higher. Below is an introduction to the BMW X2: Configuration: The BMW X2 is a compact SUV under the BMW brand, featuring a transverse engine front-wheel drive, with the high-end model equipped with an all-wheel drive system. Power: The BMW X2 is equipped with two engines, one being a 1.5-liter turbocharged engine and the other a 2.0-liter turbocharged engine. The 1.5-liter turbocharged engine, codenamed b38a15a, has a maximum power output of 103 kW, a maximum torque of 220 Nm, a maximum power speed range of 4600 to 6500 rpm, and a maximum torque speed range of 1480 to 4200 rpm.

I've been driving a BMW X2 for three years, and I feel the maintenance frequency largely depends on how you use it. The three major components of this car are actually quite reliable, with the engine and transmission rarely causing issues. However, BMW's electronic systems can indeed be a bit finicky—I've encountered minor problems like false alarms from the headlight sensor and strange noises from the power windows. Maintenance must strictly follow the manual; the dealership uses particularly specific 0W-20 oil, and using cheap oil elsewhere can trigger the malfunction indicator light in no time. A friend who modified the exhaust system frequently visits the repair shop, so if you keep it stock and drive properly, it really shouldn't need frequent repairs.

What are the reasons why a car battery cannot store electricity?

The reasons why a car battery cannot store electricity are severe sulfation of the plates, severe water loss, and single-cell short circuit. Severe sulfation of the plates: Use a positive and negative pulse method to depolarize and charge the battery, then fully discharge it. Repeat this cycle three times. If there are signs of capacity recovery, you can perform more cycles to achieve better repair results. Severe water loss: Add water for repair. You must add deionized water or purified water, and never add tap water, as it can cause significant self-discharge issues in the battery. Single-cell short circuit: Repairing a battery is a very professional task, requiring knowledge of the battery's internal structure and principles. However, not all batteries are worth refurbishing. Generally, if the battery's lifespan can be extended by replenishing electrolyte or performing charge cycles, it is worth repairing. Others, like those with no voltage or current, are not worth the effort.
