The damage assessment report can usually be issued about two days after the car arrives at the 4S shop. Here is some relevant information about 4S shops: Business scope of 4S shops: In a given region, there are usually several 4S shops for a brand, mainly determined by the size of the city. Competition exists among these 4S shops, even though they represent the same brand. Currently in China, standard 4S shops only exist in cities at the prefecture level or above, while some county-level cities do not have automobile 4S shops. Characteristics of 4S shops: They are established according to the manufacturer's unified standards, following a consistent model. With manufacturer authorization, they can only sell vehicles of a single brand. Within the price range allowed by the manufacturer, they attract customers with the most competitive prices, reflecting the brand's value and maintaining its reputation. However, it's important to understand correctly that 4S shops should not be regarded as the automobile manufacturers themselves.

Does the BMW 740 engine burn oil?

BMW 740 engine does not burn oil. Causes of oil burning: When the car temperature has not fully warmed up, the engine exhaust pipe emits a lot of blue smoke, but it returns to normal after the car warms up. This phenomenon is caused by aging valve stem seals. If the exhaust pipe continues to emit blue smoke after the car reaches normal operating temperature, it indicates poor sealing of the piston rings. Preventive measures for oil burning: Use high-quality engine oil: Engine oil is highly susceptible to corrosion and aging under prolonged high-temperature conditions, causing the oil film to thin and making it easier to enter the combustion chamber and participate in combustion. Therefore, using high-quality engine oil can significantly delay this phenomenon. Maintain fuel system cleanliness: Fuel inevitably produces carbon deposits during combustion, and carbon deposits are the root cause of various car issues, such as aging valve stem seals and increased piston-cylinder wall clearance.

Why does the Cayenne's fan keep running after the engine is turned off?

Cayenne's fan continues to run after the engine is turned off to cool down the engine. High engine coolant temperature: If the engine coolant temperature at the moment of parking is higher than the acceptable soaking temperature for the engine, the vehicle's computer will automatically calculate the fan's operating speed and duration, thereby controlling the fan's operation. The higher the engine temperature, the longer the fan will run after parking. Low engine coolant temperature: When the engine coolant temperature is below the soaking temperature, the fan turns off; this protects the engine and extends its service life. Usage and maintenance: The radiator should not come into contact with any acid, alkali, or other corrosive substances. Use soft water to ensure cooling capacity and sealing. Completely drain the radiator before refilling it, and regularly check the water level. In winter, to prevent the core from cracking due to freezing, The storage environment for spare radiators should be kept ventilated and dry.
