When the oil change reminder appears, it is necessary to change the oil immediately and promptly inspect the vehicle to check for any other potential faults. Engine oil consists of two parts: base oil and additives. The base oil is the main component of lubricating oil, determining its fundamental properties, and is an essential part of the lubricating oil. Precautions for oil change include: 1. Perform the change when the engine is warm to ensure the old oil is drained as thoroughly as possible; 2. Add the new oil and ensure the correct amount is added, then run the engine for 3 minutes to confirm the oil level reaches the normal mark.

How many years can a Volkswagen Magotan last?

Generally, for non-commercial 5-seat sedans and 7-seat SUVs, there is no specified service life, but they must be scrapped after reaching 600,000 kilometers. Pickup trucks are mandated to be scrapped after 15 years, taxis can be used for 8 years, and commercial vehicles have a 10-year limit.

Why does the BMW's ambient light remain on after locking the car

BMW's interior lights stay on after the engine is turned off because the interior light is set to the DOOR position, which is the door control setting. After the vehicle is turned off, the interior lights will remain illuminated for a period of time to provide lighting for the driver when leaving the vehicle. As long as all four doors are closed for a certain period or the doors are locked, the interior lights will turn off. BMW is a German luxury car brand founded in 1916, headquartered in Munich, Bavaria, Germany. Its blue and white logo colors are derived from the Bavarian state flag. BMW's vehicle series include i, X, Z, and pure numeric models such as 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, as well as the M series, which is an improved version based on these series.
