1 Answers
BMW 5 Series fuel tank is on the right side, and refueling requires the vehicle to be unlocked. The refueling method and precautions for the BMW 5 Series are as follows: Refueling method for the BMW 5 Series: The fuel tank switch of the BMW 5 Series is located outside the vehicle, and the fuel tank cap is positioned on the passenger side. When the engine is off, approach the fuel tank cap, gently press it, and the cap will pop open, allowing you to proceed with refueling. Precautions for refueling the BMW 5 Series: Choose a reputable gas station; it is advisable to refuel in the morning or evening, avoiding midday when the sun is intense and temperatures are high. Underground storage tanks at gas stations are at their lowest temperatures between 5:00 AM to 8:00 AM in summer and 5:00 AM to 9:30 AM in spring, autumn, and winter. During these times, gasoline is measured by volume rather than weight, as volume is affected by thermal expansion and contraction due to temperature changes.
