Simply take the car key, sit in the vehicle, press the brake pedal, and then push the start-stop button to start the engine. As of August 2019, cars available in the market generally come with two types of starting methods: one is mechanical key start, and the other is push-button start. Below is an introduction to the BMW X5: 1. The BMW X5's automatic transmission has 6 to 7 gears, arranged sequentially from front to back. They are P (Park), R (Reverse), N (Neutral), and D (Drive). 2. BMW offers three different engines for the new model, namely the 4.4L V8 twin-turbo (equipped in the xDrive50i), the 3.0L inline-six diesel engine (equipped in the X5 xDrive35d), and the 3.0L inline-six gasoline engine (equipped in the X5 xDrive35i). 3. This 3.0L gasoline engine adopts a twin-scroll single turbocharging technology. In terms of performance, the X5 xDrive35i accelerates from 0-96km/h in just 6.1 seconds, which is considered exceptionally perfect for an SUV powered by a six-cylinder engine. The BMW X5 xDrive35i has a body weight of 2175kg, yet despite being 91kg heavier, it accelerates 1.5 seconds faster, showcasing the remarkable strength of this BMW engine.

As someone who frequently uses smart devices, starting a BMW X5 is as effortless as playing with digital gadgets. Before getting in the car, the key in your pocket automatically unlocks the doors. Once seated, close the door, fasten the seatbelt, and press the brake pedal. Then, press the one-touch start button near the instrument panel, and the engine quickly roars to life. Check the digital instrument cluster to ensure no warning lights are on, confirming the system is functioning properly. Next, grip the electronic gear lever and shift from Park (P) to Drive (D), taking a moment to see if there are any driving modes available, such as Sport mode for enhanced acceleration. Gently release the electronic parking brake—it disengages automatically—and gradually press the accelerator to glide smoothly forward. Always remember to check the rearview mirror for obstacles before moving. BMW's keyless system is indeed convenient, but don’t rely solely on sensors—manual checks are more reliable. In cold winter starts, let the engine warm up for half a minute before driving off to reduce wear and extend its lifespan.

What to Do When There's No Contact Number for Moving a Parked Car?

If there's no contact number for moving a parked car, you can call 114 directory assistance to find the corresponding car owner's contact information. Here is some knowledge about moving a parked car: 1.

Does passing through after the yellow light turns on count as running a red light?

Running a yellow light and running a red light both fall under the same traffic violation—driving a motor vehicle in violation of traffic signal regulations. According to Article 10 of the "Road Traffic Safety Law of the People's Republic of China," this offense is punishable by a fine and a deduction of 6 points from the driver's license. Article 26 of the "Road Traffic Safety Law of the People's Republic of China" stipulates: Traffic signals consist of red, green, and yellow lights. A red light indicates prohibition of passage, a green light indicates permission to proceed, and a yellow light serves as a warning. Article 26 of the "Road Traffic Safety Law" further states: A yellow light serves as a warning, and motor vehicles should slow down when approaching an intersection. If the vehicle has already crossed the stop line when the yellow light turns on, it may continue to pass. If the vehicle has not crossed the stop line, it should come to a halt. Article 38 of the "Implementation Regulations of the Road Traffic Safety Law of the People's Republic of China" specifies the meanings of motor vehicle and non-motor vehicle traffic signals: When the green light is on, vehicles are permitted to proceed, but turning vehicles must not obstruct the passage of straight-moving vehicles or pedestrians. When the yellow light is on, vehicles that have already crossed the stop line may continue to pass. When the red light is on, vehicles are prohibited from passing. At intersections without non-motor vehicle or pedestrian crossing signals, non-motor vehicles and pedestrians should follow the motor vehicle traffic signals. When the red light is on, right-turning vehicles may proceed, provided they do not obstruct the passage of other vehicles or pedestrians. Electronic traffic enforcement captures red-light running based on the following three photos, which are reviewed by traffic police to determine whether a violation occurred: An image of the vehicle not crossing the stop line when the red light is on. An image of the vehicle's front wheels pressing against the stop line. An image of the vehicle fully crossing the stop line. If these three photos show that the vehicle moved beyond the stop line while the red light was on, the traffic police can confirm it as a red-light running violation during review. To avoid running a yellow light: Slow down when approaching an intersection, maintain a safe distance from the vehicle ahead at 20–30 km/h, and avoid tailgating or rushing through a yellow light. Alternatively, observe the traffic light in advance; if the green light has been on for a long time with low traffic volume, prepare to slow down.

How Long Can a New Car Battery Be Stored?

A car battery can typically be stored for about 15 days, and beyond 30 days, it will usually fail to start the car. Even when not connected to any electrical components or under any load, a car battery loses approximately 1% of its charge daily due to its self-discharge rate. A depleted battery will affect the car's ability to start and the operation of onboard devices. Maintenance and care for car batteries: If a battery remains unused for an extended period, it will gradually self-discharge until it becomes unusable. Therefore, it is advisable to start the car periodically to recharge the battery. When the ammeter indicates insufficient charge, the battery should be charged promptly. The density of the electrolyte should be adjusted according to standards based on different regions and seasons. During regular driving, check whether the small vents on the battery cover are clear. If these vents are blocked, the hydrogen and oxygen gases produced cannot escape, and when the electrolyte expands, it may rupture the battery casing, shortening the battery's lifespan. Precautions for charging the battery: Always charge the battery while it is connected to the car to avoid data loss that may occur if the battery is removed. If the battery voltage drops below 10% of the rated voltage, it may lead to a deep discharge. Avoid exposing the battery to water while charging.

How Long Does a Car Remote Key Battery Last?

Car remote key batteries typically last 2-3 years. Below is some knowledge about using car remote keys: 1. When approaching the car: As the driver brings the key in their pocket near the car, the key and the car begin exchanging preset command information via radio waves. Subsequently, the car's locking system, security system, and engine control system are all activated. 2. When opening the door: As soon as the driver touches the door handle, sensors detect this pressure, and the servo motor unlocks the door while the turn signals flash twice. Then, the seat, steering wheel, and exterior rearview mirrors automatically adjust to positions suitable for the owner.
