BMW X1 requires 5 liters of engine oil. The functions of engine oil include: lubrication, auxiliary cooling, cleaning, sealing and leak prevention, rust and corrosion protection, shock absorption, and anti-wear. Taking the 2021 BMW X1 as an example, it is a compact SUV with the following dimensions: length 4565mm, width 1821mm, height 1620mm, and a wheelbase of 2780mm. The 2021 BMW X1 is equipped with a 1.5T turbocharged engine, delivering a maximum horsepower of 140PS, a maximum torque of 220Nm, and a maximum power of 103kW, paired with a 7-speed dual-clutch transmission.

As someone who has been helping friends with car repairs for years, the BMW X1 typically requires about 4.8 liters of engine oil, with slight variations depending on the engine model. For instance, the newer F48 series recommends staying under 5 liters. Using full synthetic oil is crucial, and I often opt for BMW-certified 5W-30 oil to ensure smoother engine operation. When adding oil yourself, take your time: start with 4 liters, let the car sit for 10 minutes to cool down, then check the dipstick. If the level isn’t at the midpoint, gradually top it up. Ignoring oil levels can lead to increased engine noise, overheating, and even damage, affecting driving comfort. Change the oil regularly every 8,000 to 10,000 kilometers, and check for leaks or signs of oil burning. Keep a maintenance log for reference during the next oil change. Safety first—if the oil level isn’t right, visit a professional shop immediately to prevent minor issues from becoming major problems.

How wide is a car with mirrors if the body width is 1850mm?

A car with a body width of 1850mm measures over 2 meters when including mirrors: Each mirror typically adds approximately 100mm to the width, and the 1850mm measurement refers to the distance between the two extreme points of the car's body, excluding the mirrors. Whether a 2.2-meter parking space is suitable depends on the vehicle's size. In China, typical sedan dimensions range between 1.6 to 1.8 meters in width, 3.8 to 4.3 meters in length, and 1.4 to 1.6 meters in height. Generally, if a sedan's width does not exceed 1.6 meters, a 2.2-meter parking space is adequate. However, if the vehicle's width exceeds 1.8 meters, the door opening space on both sides may be limited, making entry and exit somewhat difficult.

Is the Vehicle and Vessel Tax Required to be Paid Annually?

The Vehicle and Vessel Tax must be paid annually, and taxpayers who meet the tax payment standards are required to pay it once a year.

Why does the fuel nozzle keep shutting off?

The reasons for the fuel nozzle shutting off are: possibly due to blockage in the fuel line or poor fuel flow; the vent pipe next to the fuel filler neck being blocked or deformed; high air pressure inside the fuel tank caused by hot weather, making fuel prone to splashing out during refueling; relatively fast refueling speed causing fuel splashing that triggers the nozzle to shut off; or overly twisted structure of the fuel tank pipe. The nozzle shutting off refers to the automatic stopping action of the fuel nozzle when the vehicle is nearly full at the gas station. The fuel nozzle tip is equipped with a sensor that automatically shuts off the nozzle once it comes into contact with the fuel surface. This shutting-off action does not affect the fuel quantity.

Is it problematic to sell 11 points for a C1 license?

Notes on selling driver's license points: Selling points is an illegal act. The traffic police department imposes severe crackdowns and penalties on the buying and selling of points, so it is not recommended in principle. Selling points may seem like easy money, but one must be cautious about both legitimate point trading and scams. If the points are deducted but the payment is not received, the loss is solely yours. For those selling points, it is essential to clarify whether the buyer intends to use them for general traffic violations or accidents. It is best not to sell points for accident cases, as accidents are highly likely to involve criminal liability, and you may end up taking the blame and punishment for someone else. The state mandates compulsory purchase of compulsory traffic insurance for motor vehicles every year, and if there are no point deduction records within a given cycle, the next cycle will qualify for corresponding discounts.

Should Car Window Tint Be Applied on the Outside or Inside?

Car window tint should be applied on the inside because it won't be exposed to wind and rain, slowing down the aging process. This avoids external interference during use, which could lead to issues like premature peeling, poor adhesion, or lifting edges. If applied on the outside, the film is more prone to scratches or damage from other objects. Benefits of car window tint include: 1. Blocking most UV rays from entering the car, reducing interior aging; 2. Enhancing the car's appearance; 3. Effectively reducing glare, improving visibility by minimizing eye strain from bright light.
