4S store engine oil is generally verified to be genuine. How to distinguish between genuine and fake engine oil and its quality: Rely on observing the packaging, observing the color of the oil, and smelling to identify genuine and fake engine oil. The grades of engine oil: SA, SB, SC, SD, SE, SF, SG, SH, SJ, SL. SL is currently the highest quality grade of engine oil in the world, surpassing the SA grade. SB grade: In the late 1940s, the first engine oil containing additives, including some rust inhibitors and anti-oxidants. SC grade: 1964, providing protection against high and low temperature deposits, wear, rust, and corrosion. SD grade: 1968, performing better than SC engine oil. SE grade: 1972, offering more protection against oxidation, rust, corrosion, and high-temperature deposits. SF grade: Implemented in 1980, superior to SE in terms of anti-sludge, anti-deposit, acid stability, wear resistance, and better oxidation stability than SE. SG grade: Implemented in 1989, with improvements in wear resistance, high-temperature resistance, oxidation resistance, cleanliness, anti-sludge, and dispersibility.

What Causes a BMW to Shake When Shifting Gears?

When a BMW shakes during gear shifting, it is typically due to interference in the internal coupling or clutch of the transmission. Additionally, if there is friction between the engine, transmission, exhaust pipe, and the underbody or chassis, or if the damping rubber has aged and cracked, the normal vibrations from the engine can directly transmit into the cabin, resulting in shaking during gear shifts. Shifting Posture: When shifting gears, keep your eyes on the road ahead and maintain the correct driving posture. Hold the steering wheel firmly with one hand and lightly grip the gear lever knob with the other. Avoid looking down at the controls to prevent veering off course and potential hazards. If the gear doesn't engage smoothly or if there is gear noise, do not force it. After moving the gear lever to neutral, avoid shaking it back and forth to prevent affecting shift timing and damaging components. After Shifting: Once shifting is complete, do not leave your left foot resting on the clutch pedal, as this can cause partial clutch engagement, increasing mechanical wear. Instead, place your foot on the floor of the driver's compartment. While driving, avoid skipping gears when shifting unless absolutely necessary. When needing to shift into reverse while driving, ensure the car comes to a complete stop before shifting to prevent component damage.

How is driving against traffic determined?

On roads with solid dividing lines, if a motor vehicle enters the opposite lane. Roads with double solid lines or single solid lines as dividers prohibit crossing the lines. On roads with dashed dividing lines, overtaking by borrowing the opposite lane is allowed. However, if an accident occurs and the driver fails to yield to oncoming traffic, the vehicle borrowing the lane will be determined as driving against traffic, with the owner bearing full responsibility. On roads marked with one-way signs, if a motor vehicle enters such a lane, it will be determined as driving against traffic.

What to Do When Your Car Gets Flooded?

If water enters the exhaust pipe after driving through water and the engine stalls, do not attempt to restart it forcefully. Immediately call for roadside assistance and wait for help. If the exhaust pipe is not severely flooded, you can inspect the electronic systems yourself, remove accumulated water under the car body, remove the spark plugs to drain some water from the engine, and then reinstall the spark plugs. If the flooding is severe, you will need roadside assistance to tow the car to a repair shop. If the exhaust pipe is flooded, it will require simple cleaning and drying before it can function properly again.

How to Use the Car Turn Signal Lever?

Nowadays, vehicle light switches are mainly lever-type switches and knob-type switches, with the lever-type being the most common. To turn on the high beams, gently press the lever downward. The knob-type switch only has the high beam setting. Rotate the light control switch handle to the high beam position, and the high beams will turn on. High beams are all activated by moving the lever. Don't assume that a knob-type light switch means there is no lever switch on the left side of the steering wheel; there are still buttons for turn signals and high beams.
