2 Answers
Methods to start a BMW X3: 1. Ensure the gear is in P or N position. If in any other position, the automatic transmission vehicle cannot be started; 2. Turn the key to the ON position and wait for about 10 seconds. During the circuit self-check, verify that all indicator lights on the dashboard display normally; 3. If the self-check is normal, proceed to start the engine; 4. Once the RPM drops below 1000, the vehicle can idle. Wait for the water temperature to rise before driving normally; 5. When starting the vehicle, first press the foot brake, shift the gear to D position, then release the foot brake and handbrake. The BMW X3 has a body length of 4717mm, width of 1891mm, height of 1689mm, and a wheelbase of 2864mm.
I've been driving a BMW X3 for almost three years now, and the startup process is quite smooth. When I get into the driver's seat, I make sure the key is in my pocket or I'm holding the smart card, then firmly press the brake pedal and reach over to the left side of the steering wheel to press the round engine start/stop button. The engine starts immediately, and the dashboard lights up. I usually wait about half a minute for the system to initialize before shifting gears and driving off. For older models that require a key to start, just insert the key into the ignition switch and give it a gentle turn. On cold days, it's normal for the engine to sound louder at startup, but don't rush to accelerate—let the temperature rise a bit before setting off. The car has a strong tech vibe, and the push-button start is both convenient and secure.
