BMW M4 spark plugs should be replaced every 80,000 kilometers. If the spark plugs are not replaced for a long time, it will cause many problems such as leakage in the vehicle's ignition system, increased fuel consumption, and decreased power. The most important thing is that it will cause difficulty in ignition, affecting the normal use of the vehicle. Spark plug replacement cycle: Under normal maintenance conditions, it should be replaced when driving 40,000 to 60,000 kilometers, but it may vary depending on the brand and engine. It is recommended to follow the user manual. The following standards can be referred to for maintenance and replacement: platinum spark plugs should be replaced at 40,000 kilometers, ordinary nickel alloy spark plugs should be replaced at 20,000 kilometers, and iridium spark plugs should be replaced at 60,000 to 80,000 kilometers. Steps to replace spark plugs: Open the hood, lift the plastic cover of the engine, remove the high-voltage distributor, and mark the position of each cylinder to avoid confusion. Use a spark plug socket to remove the spark plugs one by one. When removing, pay attention to whether there are leaves, dust, etc. on the outside, and be sure to clean them up. Put the new spark plug into the spark plug hole, turn it a few times by hand, and then use the socket to tighten it. Install the removed high-voltage distributor according to the ignition sequence, buckle the cover, and finally start the vehicle to check whether the spark plugs are working normally.

Does Rain Affect the Car After Applying Paint Protection Film?

It is best to avoid exposure to rain immediately after applying the paint protection film. The film has not yet fully bonded with the car's paint, and there may still be small air bubbles that need to be removed through drying. Additionally, the edges of the newly applied film are not very secure, so it is advisable to let the car sit for a few more days to allow the film to adhere more firmly. Detailed explanations are as follows: 1. Avoid using high-pressure water jets: If the film has perfectly bonded with the car's paint, rain will not affect it, as water cannot penetrate the film. However, within the first month after application, it is best not to use high-pressure water jets to spray the seams of the paint protection film intensely, as this could loosen the edges and reduce its protective effect. 2. Car washing precautions: When washing the car, avoid scratching the film's surface with hard objects or scrubbing it too hard, as scratches and wear marks can affect the film's shine and overall appearance.

How to Drive Through Deep Water on Rainy Days?

When driving through deep water on rainy days, proceed slowly. Here are some relevant tips: 1. Brake gently: Always apply the brakes gently in rainy conditions to avoid sudden stops. Most sedans can handle water depths of 15-20 cm in urban areas without issues. The key is to maintain a slow speed, avoid splashing water, and use a low gear. 2. Precautions: Never drive through ditches or puddles at high speed. Excessive speed can cause water to splash, increasing the actual depth of water your car is navigating and potentially leading to engine flooding. Avoid driving through water if it rises above the centerline of your tires. Raindrops on the side mirrors can create blind spots for drivers, so clean them regularly. When changing lanes, drivers should be extra cautious. In cases of heavy rain or severe thunderstorms, park your vehicle in a higher area to prevent flooding.
