To deactivate the BMW automatic start-stop function: The start-stop deactivation button is located on the engine start button. Simply press the "A off" button manually. Typically, the start-stop system is automatically enabled when the ignition is turned on. To disable it, just press the button (note: the illuminated light indicates deactivation). Below is relevant information about the automatic start-stop feature: 1. The engine automatic start-stop system automatically shuts off the engine when the vehicle comes to a temporary stop (e.g., at a traffic light) and restarts it when needed to proceed. Its English name is STOPSTART, abbreviated as STT. The STT intelligent fuel-saving system controls the engine's start and stop operations. 2. It is advisable to turn off the automatic start-stop in the following scenarios: Avoid using it on slopes—if the engine fails to restart after releasing the brake, the vehicle may roll backward, so remember to disable it. Additionally, if the air conditioning is set to a very low temperature, it stops cooling when the engine is off. However, if the system detects a significant discrepancy between the cabin temperature and the set value, it may force the engine to restart, rendering the automatic start-stop ineffective. Also, always disable the automatic start-stop when driving through water. For regular city driving, the automatic start-stop can remain active.

How to Step on the Brake in Subject 3 to Be Sensed?

In Subject 3, gently pressing the brake pedal can be sensed. Below are some driving tips: 1. When passing through an intersection: Simply tapping the brake with insufficient force may not be recognized by the system sensor, leading to a prompt that the examinee failed to slow down before the intersection. 2. Braking in semi-engaged clutch state: You can press the brake with any force without stalling the engine, and even a slight pause won’t affect the test. Therefore, examinees can consider braking to a complete stop in semi-engaged clutch state at intersections before continuing. 3. Early braking: Appropriately extending the braking distance and braking early allows the braking force to be evenly distributed over a longer distance. This reduces the maximum braking force, preventing noticeable forward tilt during braking.

What is the idle air flow rate of a car?

The idle air flow rate of a car is approximately 2.5g/s. Below are the detailed explanations regarding the idle air flow rate of a car: 1. Data Statistics: Under normal conditions, the air flow signal data during idle is around 2.5g/s; if it is less than 2.0g/s, it indicates an air leak in the intake system; if it exceeds 4.0g/s, it means the engine is under additional load. The normal air flow value varies for each engine model, with larger displacement engines having higher air flow values. 2. Fault Causes: Since the air flow sensor signal is the primary basis for controlling the air-fuel ratio, an infrared exhaust gas analyzer can be used to measure the exhaust gas composition during engine idle and stable operation at 2000r/min. If the measured values deviate significantly from the standard values, it indicates a fault caused by poor performance of the air flow sensor.

Why is the Q5L cigarette lighter not working?

The reasons why the Q5L cigarette lighter is not working are as follows: 1. Due to long-term use, repeated insertion and removal may cause the spring clip to loosen, resulting in the cigarette lighter not receiving power. 2. Another possible reason is that repeated insertion and removal or improper use may cause a short circuit in the wiring, burning out the fuse. Below are the repair methods for a non-working cigarette lighter: 1. First, try connecting a cigarette lighter of the same model. If it works normally, the issue is with the lighter itself, and it can be directly replaced. 2. If it still doesn’t work, the problem is likely with the cigarette lighter’s fuse, which can be replaced by yourself as follows: (1) Locate the fuse box for the car’s electrical components. The position of the fuse box varies depending on the car’s brand and model—some are in the storage compartment, while others are under the dashboard. (2) Open the fuse box cover and refer to the fuse location diagram on the inside of the cover to find the cigarette lighter fuse. (3) Use the provided fuse puller to remove the blown fuse and replace it with a new or spare cigarette lighter fuse.
