The BMW 525Li requires 6 liters of engine oil. Be careful not to add too much; the engine oil level should be maintained between the upper and lower marks on the dipstick for normal operation. Overfilling the engine oil will only lead to carbon buildup in the engine, which in turn increases fuel consumption. 1. How to check the engine oil level: Park the vehicle on a relatively level and flat surface. After 10 minutes, pull out the dipstick and observe the position of the oil between the upper and lower marks to determine whether the oil pan needs more oil. However, do not pull out the dipstick immediately after parking to check the oil level in the oil pan, as the result at this time will not accurately reflect the actual oil level. 2. Precautions: If the oil level in the oil pan is already below the lower mark on the dipstick, it is necessary to add oil promptly. First, unscrew the oil filler cap, then add an appropriate amount of the same brand and grade of oil as that in the oil pan. Wait for 10 minutes, then check whether the added oil meets the requirements. The oil level should be between the upper and middle marks on the dipstick.

What is the appropriate tire pressure for the GAC Trumpchi GS4?

The appropriate tire pressure for the GAC Trumpchi GS4 generally ranges between 2.3 bar and 2.7 bar, and any pressure within this range is considered safe. However, during summer when temperatures are high, the tire pressure may rise above 3.0 bar even if it was initially within the normal range. Therefore, it is advisable to maintain a slightly lower tire pressure in summer, ideally between 2.3 bar and 2.5 bar. The GAC Trumpchi GS4 is positioned as an international new-generation SUV, featuring an 8-inch high-definition touchscreen and dual-mode navigation with military-grade Beidou and GPS technology for smarter route planning and more precise navigation.

What is the difference between Brake King and Soft Brake King?

The differences between Brake King and Soft Brake King are as follows: 1. Easy to lock up with light touch: The principle of Brake King is to disrupt the linear increase of air pressure during braking, directly bypassing the initial phase of low braking pressure and advancing the air flow, giving the impression of better braking performance. Brake King is more sensitive to light touches, making it easy to lock up the wheels, but further pressing may result in reduced effectiveness and increased tire wear. 2. Less prone to locking up when empty: Soft Brake King operates on a similar principle to Brake King, but it integrates a throttle valve in the valve body. When lightly pressed, the throttle valve comes into play, providing gentle deceleration and softer braking. It is less prone to locking up when the vehicle is empty, only locking up when fully pressed, similar to hydraulic brakes.
