Generally, you should not continue driving with low tire pressure as it poses significant safety hazards. The normal tire pressure range for car tires is between 230-250kpa. Tire pressure standards vary depending on tire type and vehicle model: Different vehicle models have varying weights, heights, and tire sizes, which require different tire pressures. Standard tires have a recommended pressure of 230-250kpa, while reinforced tires require 280kpa-290kpa. Factors affecting tire pressure: Seasonal changes significantly impact tire pressure. In summer, high temperatures cause tires to heat up during driving, and high pressure increases the risk of blowouts, so slightly lower pressure is recommended. In winter, tire pressure should be slightly higher than in summer due to thermal contraction and expansion. Generally, a tire pressure between 250kpa-280kpa is more suitable for winter conditions.

Does the BMW X2 not have cruise control?

The BMW X2 is equipped with cruise control, and the cruise control buttons are located on the left side of the multifunction steering wheel. Control adjustments: When the vehicle reaches a certain speed, press the button in the upper right corner to activate cruise control; the LIM button is the speed limit switch, which can set the maximum cruising speed; the middle roller can be used to adjust the vehicle speed. Function of cruise control: It is mainly used to control the vehicle's constant speed driving. After cruise control is activated, the vehicle will drive at the speed set by the driver, automatically maintaining the speed without the need to press the accelerator pedal, allowing the vehicle to travel at a fixed speed; in addition, speed adjustment, function pause, or cancellation can be achieved by adjusting the control switch.

Why is the BMW 3 Series one-button start unresponsive after a power outage?

BMW 3 Series one-button start unresponsive after a power outage may be caused by a dead key fob battery, the gear not being in P position, etc. Dead smart key battery: When the vehicle's smart key battery is dead, the key's transmission power is very low, making it difficult for the in-car sensor to detect it. At this time, the one-button start cannot complete ignition. Solution: Generally, smart keys come with a mechanical key that can be directly inserted into the keyhole for starting. Gear not in P position: For automatic transmission vehicles (AT, CVT, AMT), the manufacturer will state in the manual: Ensure the gear is in P position when starting. Imagine if the vehicle could be started directly in D or R gear—the sudden movement of the vehicle during ignition would undoubtedly pose a significant safety hazard.

Where is the drain valve for the antifreeze in Chery Fengyun 2?

The water filler port of the Chery Fengyun 2 radiator is located at the antifreeze reservoir cap in the upper left corner of the engine compartment. Antifreeze is a coolant containing special additives, mainly used in liquid-cooled engine cooling systems. It has excellent properties such as preventing freezing in winter, boiling in summer, and resisting scale and corrosion throughout the year. Vehicle antifreeze generally needs to be replaced every 2 years or 40,000 kilometers, which is just a reference interval. For commercial vehicles with longer mileage, the replacement cycle is shorter. Since driving conditions vary for each vehicle, the replacement should be based on actual usage. Check the antifreeze's condition; if it is found to be insufficient, replenish it promptly. If suspended matter, sediment, or signs of deterioration or discoloration are observed in the antifreeze, replace it immediately and clean the system. How to determine if antifreeze is lacking: Observe the antifreeze warning light on the dashboard. If it lights up, it is likely due to insufficient antifreeze, although it could also be caused by excessively high cylinder temperatures. Check the antifreeze reservoir. If the fluid level is below the minimum mark (MIN), do not continue driving and add antifreeze promptly. Check the water level scale markings on the antifreeze reservoir. The antifreeze level should normally be between the maximum and minimum marks. Whether antifreeze is lacking depends on the scale. If the antifreeze is below the minimum mark, it indicates a shortage.

What is the fuel tank capacity of the Baojun 610?

The fuel tank capacity of the Baojun 610 is 54 liters. In the same class, the Baojun 310W 2020 1.5L Automatic Jinxiang Type VI has a fuel tank capacity of 40 liters. Fuel tank maintenance is as follows: Drain accumulated water and sediment from the fuel tank, and check for oil leaks at the fuel pipe joints and switches. For fuel tank caps equipped with air valves and vapor valves, also check if the ventilation holes are clear. The filter screen at the fuel filler inlet should remain intact to prevent impurities from entering the fuel tank and clogging the fuel lines during refueling. The sealing gasket on the fuel filler cap should also be intact to prevent fuel from spilling out while driving. If the owner wants to know the remaining fuel level, they can observe the fuel gauge on the right side of the instrument panel, which is marked with E and F. When the pointer is near E, it indicates that the fuel is almost empty, and when it is close to F, it means the fuel level is sufficient.

What Causes the Jerking in Haval H6?

Haval H6 experiences jerking during acceleration, which is likely caused by poor fuel system maintenance. Below are the relevant details: Common Causes: Poor fuel system maintenance; excessive carbon buildup in the throttle body, fuel injectors, or intake manifold; substandard fuel quality leading to incomplete combustion; faulty spark plugs or ignition coils causing cylinder misfires, etc. Solutions: If there is jerking during acceleration, it indicates a serious issue with the vehicle's throttle pedal. At this point, the owner needs to replace or repair the throttle pedal. If the problem persists after replacing the throttle pedal, the owner should replace the vehicle's spark plugs and fuel injectors.
