Methods for using engine start-stop: 1. While driving, directly press the brake pedal. After the vehicle comes to a complete stop for about two seconds, the engine will automatically shut off. Keep pressing the brake pedal, and the engine will remain off; 2. As soon as you release the brake or turn the steering wheel, the engine will automatically restart immediately, allowing you to press the accelerator to start moving. The entire process remains in D gear. Engine start-stop is a system that automatically shuts off the engine when the vehicle temporarily stops during driving (e.g., at a red light) and automatically restarts the engine when the vehicle needs to move forward again.

Is it a problem if the oil pump chain is loose?

An excessively loose chain can cause skipping. More information about the oil pump chain is as follows: 1. Overview: The automobile engine chain (timing chain and oil pump chain) has a driving sprocket speed as high as 5-7kr/min, far exceeding the limit speed defined by the transmission power curve. In addition to high-speed characteristics, automobile engine chains (hereinafter referred to as automobile chains) are subjected to variable speed and variable load service conditions. Therefore, the failure mechanism and design theory of automobile chains have undergone fundamental changes, opening up a new frontier research field in mechanical design and mechanical transmission disciplines. Early fracture failure of parts and early wear failure of chains constitute key technologies in the industry. 2. Others: With the continuous development of high-speed chain transmission technology, timing chains and oil pump chains have been adopted by more and more new-generation automobile engines. Automobile engine chains have also achieved certain development.

Does BMW Antifreeze Need to Be Diluted with Water When in Use?

BMW antifreeze needs to be diluted with water when in use, as the original solution is a high-concentration ethylene glycol-based antifreeze, and its freezing point varies with the concentration of ethylene glycol in the aqueous solution. The steps for adding antifreeze are: 1. Open the filling port and drain valve; 2. Drain the old antifreeze completely; 3. Add new antifreeze; 4. Tighten the drain valve once new antifreeze starts flowing out. The functions of antifreeze are: 1. To prevent freezing in cold environments, which could cause the radiator to crack or the engine cylinder block or head to freeze; 2. To effectively prevent boiling in high-temperature conditions, avoiding overheating. Taking the 2021 BMW 320i Sport Package as an example, its body dimensions are: length 4719mm, width 1827mm, height 1459mm, with a wheelbase of 2851mm.

What is the function of car tweeters?

The function of car tweeters: to reproduce the high-frequency signals (generally in the range of 5KHz-10KHz) output from the crossover. Tweeters are mainly dome-type. Dome tweeters can be divided into positive dome units and inverted dome units based on their dome structure. Here is some additional information: 1. Main function: Since the primary role of tweeters is to express the delicacy of sound, their installation position is very particular. If the installation position is not scientific during car audio modification, it will result in unsatisfactory sound field effects. 2. Installation at ear level: Tweeters should be installed as much as possible at a position level with the human ear, such as on the car's A-pillar, on top of the dashboard, or on the door in some car models. This way, the sound field is basically level with the ear, and the driver can better experience the charm of the music.

Which year does the VIN code 'J' represent?

VIN code 'J' represents the year 2018. According to VIN encoding standards: starting from 2010 as 'A', 2011 as 'B', and so on, 'J' corresponds to 2018. The letters 'I' and 'O' are not used because they can be easily confused with the numbers '1' (one) and '0' (zero) respectively. Additional information about VIN: 1. The Vehicle Identification Number (VIN) serves as a car's unique identifier, similar to an ID card. Each vehicle has its own distinct VIN, consisting of 17 digits or letters. The VIN provides various details about the vehicle, such as its manufacturing location, vehicle type, production year, and assembly information. 2. The national standard 'GB-16753-2004 Road Vehicle Identification Code (VIN)' stipulates: The 10th character of the VIN represents the model year. Codes 1~9 correspond to years 2001~2009, while letters A~H represent 2010~2017.
