The BMW X1 requires approximately 8 liters of transmission oil. Transmission oil is a lubricant that maintains the cleanliness of the gear system, ensuring the proper functioning of the transmission and extending the lifespan of the transmission components. The BMW X1 is a compact SUV from BMW. From the front, it closely resembles the mid-cycle refresh of the X3, but the lines from the fenders onwards feature a unique design, complemented by more angular rear lines, giving the X1 a certain off-road capability. The BMW X1 is equipped with a 1.5-liter turbocharged three-cylinder engine and a 2.0-liter turbocharged four-cylinder engine, paired with a 7-speed dual-clutch transmission and an 8-speed automatic transmission (8AT). The BMW X1 is available in both front-wheel-drive and all-wheel-drive configurations, but only models with the 2.0T engine come with all-wheel drive. In terms of dimensions, the BMW X1 measures 4454mm in length, 1798mm in width, and 1545mm in height.

I remember asking about transmission fluid when I drove my BMW X1. Generally, it takes 6 to 8 liters for an oil change, depending on the model. My 2018 8-speed automatic used about 7 liters. You can't add too much or too little transmission fluid, as it may cause rough shifting or even damage components. I get it changed at the dealership every 60,000 kilometers, and they also recommend replacing the filter. The whole process is quite straightforward, but DIY carries risks—cleaning up spilled fluid can be troublesome. Also, pay attention to high oil temperatures while driving, as they can degrade the fluid quality. Regular checks can extend the transmission's lifespan. In short, don't cut corners to save time or money—professional service ensures smooth driving and avoids issues.

What is the lifespan of the Baojun CVT transmission?

The lifespan of the Baojun CVT transmission can reach up to 300,000 kilometers. The main components of the CVT system include the driving pulley set, driven pulley set, metal belt, and hydraulic pump, among others. This type of transmission uses the coordination between the driving and driven pulleys to transmit power, enabling the powertrain to achieve optimal matching with the engine's operating conditions. Since the CVT transmission lacks the gear sets found in conventional automatic transmissions, gear shifts are smoother. It provides linear power output, resulting in a very smooth driving experience. Theoretically, a CVT can have an unlimited number of gear ratios, allowing for more flexible gear settings and making it easier to achieve a balance between gear ratio, speed ratio, performance, fuel consumption, and exhaust emissions. However, since CVT transmissions have not been widely used in vehicles for a long time, maintenance costs are relatively high, and they have limited torque capacity.

What is the Difference Between Annual Inspection and Annual Review?

Below are the specific differences between annual inspection and annual review: 1. Scope: Annual inspection refers to the testing of the vehicle, including items such as appearance, chassis, lights, horn, and exhaust emissions. Its main purpose is to promptly eliminate potential safety hazards, check whether the vehicle meets standards, and reduce the occurrence of traffic accidents. Annual review, in addition to requiring a safety inspection of the vehicle, also involves reviewing the owner's vehicle license, driver's license, and car insurance. If there are any traffic violations, they must be resolved; otherwise, the annual review cannot be passed. 2. Timing: Annual inspection is usually conducted once a year at an inspection station towards the end of the year. The driver's license has a corresponding annual review period, which can be checked on the duplicate of the vehicle license, and it needs to be processed at the vehicle management office.

What to Do When 12 Points on the Driver's License Are Not Enough?

If 12 points on the driver's license are not enough, you can reduce points by learning traffic laws, with a maximum reduction of 6 points. Below is a brief introduction to point reduction through learning: 1. Rules: Participate in online learning (accumulate 30 minutes within 3 days) and pass the exam to reduce 1 point each time. Participate in on-site learning (no less than 1 hour each time) and pass the exam to reduce 2 points each time. Participate in traffic safety public welfare activities (1 hour each time) to reduce 1 point each time. There is no limit to the number of times you can participate in 'point reduction through learning.' However, once a driver reduces 6 points within a scoring cycle, they can no longer participate in 'point reduction through learning.' 2. Content: (1) Online learning. Participate in online learning and exams on road traffic safety laws, regulations, and related knowledge. (2) On-site learning. In areas where on-site learning and exams are available, participate in on-site learning and exams on road traffic safety laws, regulations, and related knowledge. (3) Participate in public welfare. In areas where point reduction through traffic safety public welfare activities is available, participate in activities such as civilized traffic guidance and traffic safety publicity organized by the traffic management department.

What is the fuel consumption of FAW-Volkswagen Jetta?

The measured fuel consumption of the Volkswagen Jetta 1.5L automatic luxury model is 6.8L per 100 kilometers, which is 0.4L lower than that of the old Jetta with a 1.6L engine. The new Jetta performs better in terms of fuel consumption. Adopting an economical driving style can reduce fuel consumption by up to 25%. Fuel economy, environmental pollution, and the wear rate of the engine, brakes, and tires mainly depend on the following three factors: the driver's driving style, vehicle usage conditions (climate, road conditions, etc.). More related information is as follows: 1. Automatic transmission: The type of transmission also has a significant impact on fuel consumption. Automatic transmissions, lacking manual control of engagement and being executed by the ECU, are relatively more fuel-consuming. 2. Manual-automatic transmission: This adds a manual intervention engagement control part, making it slightly more fuel-efficient than a pure automatic transmission. 3. Continuously variable transmission (CVT): Shifting is smoother, making it more fuel-efficient than the previous two types. Manual transmission is the most fuel-efficient for skilled drivers. Dual-clutch transmission, with its precise shift control, is the most technologically advanced and offers the best comprehensive performance and economy among all transmissions.

Will points be deducted for the car hood sweeping the line?

In theory, points are not deducted for the car body sweeping the line in Subject 2. Here is some relevant information: 1. Crossing the line: Crossing the line will definitely result in a 100-point deduction. However, sweeping the line is allowed in right-angle turns and curve driving, as long as the wheels do not run over the road edge line. During the right-angle turn test, try to avoid the car hood sweeping the line, as this can easily lead to failure. 2. Subject 2: The teaching objective of Subject 2 is to require students to master the basic driving operation essentials, possess the basic ability to control the vehicle, proficiently master the basic methods of driving on the site and within the road, have the ability to reasonably use vehicle control components and correctly control the spatial position of the vehicle, and be able to accurately control the vehicle's driving position, speed, and route.

What is the problem when the engine light is on?

The reasons for the engine light being on are as follows: 1. Sensor issues: Sensors include water temperature, crankshaft position, air flow, intake temperature, oxygen sensors, etc. When these sensors are damaged, have poor contact, or signal interruption, the car's ECU cannot accurately obtain engine data, which will cause the engine fault light to illuminate. 2. Turbocharging issues: The intake turbocharging pipeline and turbocharger can also cause the engine fault light to illuminate. The most common issue is turbocharger damage, accompanied by symptoms such as oil leakage, high oil consumption, reduced power, metal noises, and blue or black smoke from the exhaust pipe. 3. Exhaust issues: Rear oxygen sensor, three-way catalytic converter, exhaust camshaft, and bearing shells. The most common issue is the three-way catalytic converter failure causing the engine fault light to illuminate. Using leaded gasoline, lead or silicon-containing lubricant additives, physical damage to the catalytic converter, and engine fuel supply system failures are some factors that can easily cause three-way catalytic converter failure. 4. Anti-theft system: If the car's electronic anti-theft system malfunctions, or if the anti-theft controller does not match the engine electronic controller, the anti-theft system can also cause the engine to not work properly, along with the engine fault light illuminating.
