When choosing between the BMW X5 and the Porsche Cayenne, driving experience is my top priority. The BMW X5 offers more agile handling, with direct steering feedback and rock-solid stability during high-speed cornering, making it ideal for daily commutes or long-distance trips—it's effortless to drive. The Cayenne, on the other hand, inherits Porsche's sports car DNA, delivering thrilling acceleration and a strong push-back sensation, especially when overtaking on highways. However, its steering is heavier, feeling a bit tense in urban driving. After test-driving both, I concluded: if you prefer smooth and relaxed driving, the X5 is the better choice; if you crave sporty excitement, the Cayenne fits the bill. Both have well-tuned, solid chassis, but the Cayenne's suspension is stiffer, with noticeable bumps over speed bumps—something to consider based on personal preference.

How to Bleed the Brake System After Adding Brake Fluid?

The steps for bleeding the brake system after adding brake fluid are as follows: 1. The bleeding operation requires two people to cooperate. After replacing or topping up the brake fluid, the air in the hydraulic lines should be bled. 2. One person sits in the driver's seat and repeatedly presses the brake pedal to raise its position, then holds the pedal steady without releasing it. Meanwhile, another person underneath the vehicle loosens the bleeder valve to allow air and brake fluid to escape from the lines. When the pedal position drops, immediately tighten the bleeder valve. 3. Repeat this process several times until no air bubbles are seen escaping from the plastic tube. Tighten the bleeder valve and reinstall the dust cap. Follow the above method to bleed the other wheel cylinders in sequence. During the bleeding process, continuously check and top up the brake fluid until all air is completely expelled. Then, add an adequate amount of the specified type of brake fluid to the reservoir.

What does 'set' mean when it appears on a car?

The appearance of 'set' on a Volkswagen vehicle indicates a tire pressure alarm, and it is necessary to store the tire pressure. Its function is to adjust the tire pressure of all four tires to the standard level, then press and hold 'set' for three seconds while observing the speedometer dial, where a symbol of an exclamation mark inside brackets will appear. Upon hearing a 'ding' sound, the tire pressure of all four tires will be set according to the adjusted values. Precautions related to tire pressure are as follows: 1. Observe the tire condition before traveling. Radial tires—commonly known as low-pressure tires—are normal as long as the flatness is not too low; if you feel strong elasticity when pressing with your foot and they are not soft, they are fine. High-pressure tires—which are bias-ply tires with inner tubes—are normal if the shoulder area does not protrude when viewed from the front (commonly referred to as 'not bulging') and the contact area with the ground appears similar to usual when viewed from the side. 2. Pay attention to the sound of friction between the tires and the ground while driving, feel the cushioning force when passing over uneven roads, and notice if there are any changes in acceleration when pressing the gas pedal compared to usual. 3. Normally, check and replenish the tire pressure at a professional tire repair shop every week.
