It is recommended to repair cracks in the car windshield at a specialized repair shop. Below are the detailed steps for repairing windshield cracks. 1. First, attach a small mirror to the inside of the windshield. This helps to better reflect the crack condition. 2. Place a triangular suction cup on the windshield. The center of the suction cup should align with the impact point of the crack. Then, slowly position and align the vacuum injector with the damaged spot on the windshield. Use the vacuum function of the tool to extract any residual air from the damaged area before applying pressure to inject the repair resin into the crack. 3. Perform vacuum extraction. Pull the lever of the vacuum injector and wait for 5-10 minutes. Keep an eye on the small mirror to observe if any bubbles are forming. If no more bubbles appear, it indicates that all the air inside the crack has been extracted. If bubbles continue to form, wait longer. 4. Lower the lever. From the inside of the windshield, you can clearly observe the flow of the repair resin as it gradually covers the damaged spot. 5. Once the resin has fully penetrated the crack, remove the repair tool. Then, cover the repaired area with a transparent plastic film and use a UV lamp to quickly cure the repair resin. 6. After the resin has solidified, remove the UV lamp and peel off the transparent plastic film. Use a utility knife to gently scrape off any excess resin from the windshield, ensuring a smooth finish. This completes the windshield repair process.

What is the actual fuel consumption of the BMW 3 Series?

The actual fuel consumption range of the BMW 3 Series is 8.66-8.95L per 100 kilometers. Extended information about fuel consumption is as follows: 1. Introduction: Fuel consumption per 100 kilometers refers to the amount of fuel consumed by a vehicle traveling 100 kilometers on the road at a certain speed. It is a theoretical indicator of the vehicle. The fuel consumption per 100 kilometers is measured by the manufacturer in an objective environment using a dynamometer installed on the vehicle's chassis, converted into speed parameters, and then specified speed driving is used to calculate the theoretical experimental fuel consumption data of the model per 100 kilometers. 2. Fuel consumption and vehicle modifications: Widening and enlarging tires increases the friction of the tires, which is equivalent to increasing the load on the car, directly increasing the car's fuel consumption. At the same time, some car owners modify the car's rear spoiler and body kit, which undoubtedly increases the car's wind resistance. The rear spoiler does not work at low speeds and only increases driving resistance, increasing the overall load of the car, which inevitably leads to an increase in fuel consumption.
