Apply toothpaste to small scratches and gently rub them several times with a mild damp towel to remove the minor scratches. Apply car wax to the small scratches, then soak a towel in warm water and rub the waxed area repeatedly several times. Use a polishing wheel along with a polishing enhancer to remove the oxidized layer on the car's surface, smooth out fine scratches, and allow the chemical to penetrate the car paint to restore its original condition.

Trailer RVs can be towed by SUVs, off-road vehicles, sedans, etc. Depending on the type and size of the trailer RV, the displacement requirements for the towing vehicle vary. Generally, family sedans and SUVs with 1.6L or larger engines are capable. Requirement 2: For RVs with a length less than 6 meters and weight less than 4500kg, a C1 driver's license is required; for RVs longer than 6 meters, a B1 license is needed, and for RVs exceeding 6 meters in length, a B2 license is required. The vehicle type for trailer RVs on the driver's license is classified as a light recreational semi-trailer or medium recreational semi-trailer. License plate regulations for trailer RVs: 1. According to the 'Motor Vehicle Registration Regulations,' registering a trailer RV requires presenting a customs import certificate with Chinese labels and the motor vehicle sales invoice issued by the sales unit.

Which engine is used in the BMW 3 Series?

The B48B20C engine is a domestically produced engine used in the BMW 3 Series, manufactured at BMW Brilliance's Tiexi factory. The BMW 3 Series is equipped with the B48B20C engine, which has a maximum power output of 135kW, a maximum torque of 290 Nm, and a maximum horsepower of 180. Here are some maintenance methods for the B48B20C engine in daily use: Use lubricating oil of appropriate quality grade. For gasoline engines, choose SD--SF grade gasoline engine oil based on the additional devices in the intake and exhaust systems and usage conditions; for diesel engines, select CB--CD grade diesel engine oil according to mechanical load, with the selection standard not lower than the manufacturer's requirements. Regularly change the engine oil and filter. The quality of any grade of lubricating oil will change during use. After a certain mileage, the performance deteriorates, leading to various engine problems. To avoid malfunctions, change the oil regularly according to usage conditions and maintain an appropriate oil level. When oil passes through the fine pores of the filter, solid particles and viscous substances in the oil accumulate in the filter. If the filter becomes clogged and oil cannot pass through the filter element, the filter element may burst or the safety valve may open, allowing oil to bypass through the bypass valve and carry contaminants back to the lubrication areas, accelerating engine wear and increasing internal contamination. Regularly clean the crankcase. During engine operation, high-pressure unburned gases, acids, moisture, sulfur, and nitrogen oxides from the combustion chamber enter the crankcase through the gap between the piston rings and cylinder walls, mixing with metal particles from component wear to form sludge. A small amount remains suspended in the oil, while a large amount precipitates, clogging filters and oil passages, making engine lubrication difficult and causing wear. Regularly use a radiator cleaner to clean the radiator. Removing rust and scale not only ensures the engine operates normally but also extends the overall lifespan of the radiator and engine.

How to Rotate the Left and Right Disks?

The purpose of rotating the left and right disks is to eliminate parallax and instrument errors. In principle, there is no distinction between left and right. If the included angle is an acute angle and the instrument also displays an acute angle, it is considered the left disk. You can determine the left and right positions based on the horizontal spiral and the battery's location relative to the car owner. If the battery is on the right, it is the left disk, and the level tube bubble will also face the car owner at this time.
