For BMW models, both front and rear brake pads should be replaced every 50,000 kilometers, while brake discs should be replaced every 100,000 kilometers, meaning brake discs are replaced every two brake pad changes. Below is relevant information about brake discs: 1. Definition: A brake disc, simply put, is a round disc that rotates when the vehicle moves. The brake caliper clamps the brake disc to generate braking force - when you press the brake pedal, it's this clamping action that slows or stops the vehicle. Brake discs offer excellent braking performance and are easier to maintain than drum brakes. 2. Structure: Disc brake rotors come in two types: solid discs (single discs) and vented discs (double discs). Solid discs are straightforward to understand, while vented discs (VentedDisc), as the name suggests, have ventilation properties. Visibly, they have numerous holes around the circumference leading to the center, called ventilation channels.

Can the USB port in the car charge a phone directly?

The USB port in the car can directly charge a phone. Below are specific reasons why the USB port might fail to charge: 1. No charging indication on the phone: The vehicle's USB port fuse may be blown. Refer to the vehicle's user manual to locate the corresponding fuse and replace it with a spare if it's blown; the data cable might be damaged; or the phone's charging port spring may be loose, causing poor contact. 2. The phone shows charging but doesn't actually charge: Check the USB port's application range in the vehicle's user manual. Generally, USB ports intended only for data reading provide a current of 0.5A, while a phone charging port requires at least 1A current output.

Introduction to the Function of the Relay Below the Refine Steering Wheel

The relay located below the Refine steering wheel records and displays the OBD (On-Board Diagnostics) data of the vehicle's computer, which includes a driving record function. It can provide operational data for various systems of the vehicle, allowing users to check the working status of each system. Generally, some data can be read through the dashboard, but there is much more data that cannot be displayed. The data recorded by OBD is more comprehensive than what is shown on the dashboard. Here is more detailed information about OBD: 1. Quickly identify fault points: OBD can read a variety of professional data such as throttle opening, air-fuel ratio, and the opening degree of the accelerator and brake pedals, as well as retrieve fault codes to quickly locate issues. 2. Fault analysis: Through data calculation, OBD can analyze faults in electronic components within the engine's electronic control system.

What are the impacts of forgetting to turn off the car air conditioner?

Forgetting to turn off the car air conditioner can drain the car battery. Here are some maintenance tips for the car battery: 1. In-car electricity usage: To maintain the car battery, avoid listening to the radio loudly, charging mobile phones, or using air pumps when the engine is off. Prolonged use can easily lead to battery depletion, and frequent depletion will significantly reduce the battery's lifespan. 2. Long-distance high-speed driving: Regularly driving on highways not only helps remove carbon deposits from the vehicle but also fully charges the battery. Generally, driving on highways for more than an hour can fully charge the battery, keeping it in optimal condition. 3. Avoid prolonged vehicle inactivity: If the car is not used for an extended period, disconnect the battery cables or start the vehicle every two weeks and drive it for several dozen kilometers to ensure the battery remains functional. 4. High-power electrical connections: Many car appliances, such as car refrigerators, vacuum cleaners, and air pumps, have high instantaneous power. Do not directly power these devices using the car battery. Instead, start the vehicle first and then connect the electrical devices.

Does Commercial Insurance Not Being Transferred Affect the New Owner?

Commercial insurance not being transferred will affect the new owner. After the second-hand car transfer, the original owner's insurance can still be used, but the insurance needs to be transferred. Here are the detailed information: 1. Handling method: The original owner can cancel the insurance, and the insurance company will refund the unused portion of the premium according to the insurance algorithm. After cancellation, the new owner can independently choose a new insurance company. Cancellation requires the insurance policy and the original owner's ID card, while new insurance requires the vehicle registration certificate and the second-hand car transfer certificate. 2. Notes: Generally, the place where the insurance is purchased and the place where the insurance is transferred need to be the same; if the vehicle insurance is purchased in another city or province, with complete documentation, the local insurance company staff can assist the customer in contacting the relevant department of the out-of-town insurance company for modification.
