After driving for so many years, I'm quite familiar with BMW. BMW simply doesn't have a dedicated reserve fuel tank—it's more of a fuel reserve concept. When the low fuel warning light comes on, the dashboard displays the remaining range, typically allowing you to drive about 50 to 100 kilometers, depending on the model. For example, a 3 Series might only manage 50 kilometers in the city but could reach 80 on the highway. However, don't rely on this; as soon as the light comes on, head to a gas station immediately. If you break down in a remote area, it could be a major hassle and might even damage the fuel pump, leading to costly and troublesome repairs. Safety first—I recommend planning to refuel when the tank is below half full. Developing good habits ensures a more worry-free driving experience.

What are the triggering conditions for airbags?

Airbag triggering conditions: 1. Meet certain speed requirements, such as speeds above 30 kilometers per hour or 60 kilometers per hour, with some variation depending on the manufacturer; 2. The impact point must be correct, typically the front of the vehicle and the wheel arch side, which is the range of impact points that the airbag can sense; 3. The impacting object must be hard and forceful, such as another car or a wall. The airbag system is a protective system that only activates when the vehicle is subjected to a severe impact and will not deploy without reason. During a severe collision, the airbag system and seat belts can provide effective collision protection for occupants, increasing their survival rate in the event of a major accident.

Will exceeding 10% of the speed limit on the highway result in penalty points?

If a vehicle exceeds the speed limit by 10% on the highway, there will be no penalty points or fines, but a warning will be issued. However, this mainly applies to ordinary passenger cars. For special vehicles such as school buses, trucks, and buses, penalty points and fines may still be imposed. Penalty points for speeding on the highway: If the highway speed limit is 120 km/h and the vehicle reaches 140 km/h, it is considered 17% over the speed limit, resulting in 3 penalty points. According to national regulations, exceeding the speed limit by less than 10% will not be penalized, while exceeding by less than 20% will result in 3 penalty points and a fine. Speeding violations typically include speeding on highways and other roads outside highways. Speed requirements for highway driving: Highways should indicate the speed limits for each lane. The maximum speed must not exceed 120 km/h, and the minimum speed must not be lower than 60 km/h. On highways, the maximum speed for small passenger cars must not exceed 120 km/h, while other motor vehicles must not exceed 100 km/h, and motorcycles must not exceed 80 km/h.

How to Check if a Car is a Salvage Vehicle?

Check whether the gaps between the body panels are uniform and consistent, and then observe if the side body lines are smooth. If you notice that the waistline is noticeably uncoordinated, it can be concluded that the car has been involved in a collision and is likely a severe salvage vehicle. Open the engine compartment to inspect whether the front crash beams and the frame above the wheel hubs show any distortion, cracks, or if the screws have been tampered with. Combining these observations with any issues found in the body shell can help determine the approximate range of the accident location. Methods to check if a car is a salvage vehicle: Closely examine the body and glass surfaces for scratches, cracks, bubbles, rust, or signs of repainting; Check the wheels for dents, trapped stones, and inspect the wheel hubs for cleanliness, dents, or scratches; Inspect the undercarriage for any scrape or collision marks, check if the pipelines have any obvious irregularities, and look for cracks in the suspension components; Examine the metal panels at the front left and right of the engine compartment and the headlight areas for signs of metalworking, such as folds, which usually indicate a salvage vehicle; Check the wear on the throttle, clutch, and brake pedals, the wear level of the brake discs, and the cleanliness of the engine oil.

What to Do When Engine Oil Gets Water Contamination?

Solution for water-contaminated engine oil: Drain all the contaminated oil completely and refill with fresh oil. Water contamination causes emulsification and deterioration of oil, significantly reducing its lubricating properties. Engine oil, often referred to as the lifeblood of an engine, serves critical functions including lubrication, heat dissipation, cleaning, and sealing within the engine. If oil emulsifies due to water ingress, its lubricating capability drastically declines, potentially causing abnormal engine wear. After identifying water-contaminated oil, it's essential to diagnose the source. Possible causes include cracked cylinder head gaskets or engine block waterways allowing coolant leakage into the oil system. For minor cases where contamination occurred accidentally (e.g., water spillage during oil cap removal), simply replacing the affected oil with new oil suffices.
