BMW M2 rearview mirrors can be folded using the electric folding button on the door armrest. Here are some details about the BMW M2 rearview mirrors: 1. The M2 rearview mirrors feature electric folding, electric angle adjustment, heating, anti-glare, and memory functions. The 2020 M2 CS Racing Edition also includes automatic folding upon locking. 2. The BMW M2 rearview mirror folding switch is located on the driver's side door panel. Pressing the electric folding button directly folds the mirrors; do not manually adjust the retractable exterior mirrors, as this may damage the electronic mirror drive mechanism.

I can see you're asking a straightforward question. The BMW M2's power-folding mirrors are simple and convenient to use. I usually engage this feature when parking on narrow streets. It's super easy to operate: there's a dedicated button inside the car, located in the corner of the main control panel near the window. Just press the button with the small mirror icon, and the mirrors automatically fold inward—no need for manual adjustment, which helps prevent body scratches. After parking, press the button again to return them to their original position. I recommend using this feature often when parking to protect the mirrors from being knocked by others, especially in tight urban parking spots—it's both hassle-free and safe. Regular maintenance is also important: avoid forcing the mirrors to fold when they're frozen, as this could jam the motor, and check the battery condition to prevent failure. This design makes city driving more convenient, and BMW's attention to detail in their performance cars is truly impressive.

How often should a new car undergo annual inspection?

New cars require an annual inspection in the sixth year. Below is more information about vehicle annual inspections: Specific inspection content: Check whether the engine, chassis, body, and auxiliary equipment are clean, complete, and effective; whether the paint surface is uniform and aesthetically pleasing; whether major assemblies have been replaced and match the initial inspection records; verify whether the vehicle's braking performance, steering control, lights, exhaust, and other safety features comply with the technical requirements for safe operation of motor vehicles; inspect whether the vehicle has undergone modifications, alterations, or transformations, and whether the driving license, license plate, and vehicle records match the current condition of the vehicle, including any changes, and whether approval and modification procedures have been completed; check for damage, alterations, or unclear markings on the license plate, driving license, and enlarged license plate markings on the vehicle, and whether replacement is necessary. Precautions for vehicle annual inspections: Vehicles should undergo annual inspection within three months before the expiration of the motor vehicle inspection validity period. According to relevant laws, the owner of the motor vehicle must first resolve any related traffic violations or accidents before following the legal procedures to apply for the annual inspection.

Where is the best place to install ETC?

For small cars, the ETC is generally installed in the upper middle part of the front windshield. For large vehicles such as trucks and buses, the installation position is in the lower middle part. The suitable installation position should be no lower than 1.2 meters and no higher than 2.5 meters, with an installation angle between 30 to 90 degrees. If the vehicle has a sunshade film or if a sunshade film is installed later, it may affect the signal transmission of the microwave communication link. In such cases, the ETC should be installed in the microwave sunroof strip. ETC is the abbreviation for Electronic-Toll-Collection, meaning electronic toll collection system. To apply for ETC, you need to provide the original and photocopy of the vehicle owner's valid ID card and driving license. If the application is not made by the owner, the agent's valid ID card is also required. The photocopy of the driving license should include the page with the most recent annual inspection stamp. Additionally, a bank card for deducting highway tolls is required, and the vehicle must be registered under the name of an individual aged between 18 and 60. Here are some precautions for installing ETC: Do not block the view; it is best to install it behind the rearview mirror: Many car models have a large inclination angle of the windshield, which reduces the driver's field of vision. If this is not considered during ETC installation, it will increase the driver's blind spot. Installing it on the right side behind the rearview mirror can avoid blocking the view. Do not affect charging: The ETC electronic tag consumes power but generally does not require charging or battery replacement because it has a solar panel on the back that can charge itself. Therefore, during installation, avoid the black areas on the windshield and positions that may block the solar panel. Once installed, do not remove it casually: The button in the middle of the adhesive is an anti-removal lever connected to a switch. After the electronic tag is installed, the windshield will press the anti-removal lever in. If the tag is removed casually, the lever will pop out and trigger the switch, locking the electronic tag and making it unusable. In such cases, you will need to visit an ETC service point to unlock it. This is designed to prevent multiple vehicles from sharing one device. Precautions for using ETC: The ETC transaction sensing area is 8 meters. To prevent the ETC device of the vehicle in front from malfunctioning, maintain a distance of more than 10 meters from the vehicle in front to avoid automatic toll payment for the vehicle ahead. The recognition speed for ETC lanes is 20 kilometers per hour. Driving too fast may result in failure to read the vehicle's device information and lead to toll deduction failure. When using a debit card bound to ETC, insufficient balance may also cause toll deduction failure.

How effective is the sound insulation in a car trunk?

Trunk sound insulation is effective. Installing sound insulation cotton in the trunk can absorb some of the energy produced by noise and convert it into heat for dissipation. Applying soundproofing and vibration-damping panels to the trunk can effectively reduce vibrations during driving, while adding sound-absorbing cotton on the outer layer can effectively block exhaust pipe noise as well as tire and road noise during driving. Additionally, performing the same sound insulation treatment on the wheel arches inside the trunk can further prevent tire noise from entering the cabin. The sound insulation materials used should meet the following standards as much as possible: 1. The material should be lightweight, as lightweight is a major trend in the automotive manufacturing industry. Lightweight materials won't significantly increase the vehicle's weight or fuel consumption after installation. 2. It should have good sound insulation and absorption performance across a wide frequency range, with long-term stability and reliability. 3. It should have sufficient strength, be resistant to damage during installation and use, and have good aging resistance, weather resistance, and a long service life. 4. It should have a clean appearance and be pollution-free. 5. It should be moisture-proof, waterproof, corrosion-resistant, insect-proof, and resistant to mold. 6. It should be non-flammable, preferably fire-retardant. 7. It should be an eco-friendly material, free from harmful substances such as asbestos or fiberglass. 8. The material itself should be easy to work with, such as being easy to cut and firmly adhesive.

What is the problem when the brake pedal cannot be pressed down?

The reasons why the brake pedal cannot be pressed down include a dead key fob battery, failure of the car's vacuum booster pump, obstruction by foreign objects on the brake pedal, or brake system failure. Below are detailed explanations of the specific causes for the brake pedal not being able to be pressed down: 1. Dead key fob battery: If the car's key fob battery is dead, the car may exhibit symptoms such as failure to start, no response when pressing the brake, or the brake pedal being hard to press. In this case, simply replacing the key fob battery will resolve the issue. 2. Failure of the car's vacuum booster pump: If the car's vacuum booster pump fails, the car may experience issues where the brake pedal cannot be pressed down or does not return after being pressed. If the brake pedal cannot be pressed down after pressing it several times when the car is turned off, this is a normal condition. This happens because the vacuum booster pump stops working when the car is off, and repeatedly pressing the brake releases the remaining vacuum boost, making the brake pedal hard to press. 3. Brake system failure: The causes of brake system failure can be complex. It is best to drive the vehicle to a repair shop or a 4S store for professional inspection and repair.

What is the difference between 5w30 and 5w-40?

The letter W stands for winter. The smaller the number before W, the lower the low-temperature viscosity, the better the low-temperature fluidity, and the lower the applicable minimum temperature. The differences between 5w30 and 5w40 engine oils are as follows: 1. Different kinematic viscosity standards at 100 degrees Celsius: 5w40 has higher viscosity than 5w30, while 5W-30 has slightly lower viscosity than 5W-40, providing better protection under high-temperature conditions. 2. Differences in fluidity and protection: The lower the oil viscosity, the thinner the oil film and the better the fluidity, but under high temperature and high pressure, the protection is worse.
