The causes of the parking brake failure in the BMW 5 Series are as follows: 1. Insufficient brake oil pressure: lack of oil in the brake master cylinder, brake pipeline rupture, oil pipe joint leakage, or oil circuit blockage. 2. Air in the brake system. 3. Excessive free travel of the brake pedal or excessive brake clearance: poor contact of the brake shoe friction plate, severe wear, or oil contamination. Relevant information about the automatic parking system is as follows: 1. Introduction: Automatic parking, also known as AUTO-HOLD, refers to an automatic braking function. After activating this function, for example, when stopping at a traffic light, there is no need to pull the handbrake, which simplifies the operation by avoiding the use of the handbrake or electronic handbrake. For automatic transmission models, frequent shifting from D to N or D to P is also unnecessary. 2. Working principle: The AUTO-HOLD automatic parking function provides accurate parking force through the slope sensor by the controller. During startup, the parking control unit calculates information provided by the clutch distance sensor, clutch engagement speed sensor, and throttle pedal sensor. When the driving force exceeds the driving resistance, the parking brake is automatically released, allowing the car to start smoothly.

What is the correct sequence of operations for stalling in Subject 3?

Here is the introduction to the correct sequence of operations for stalling in Subject 3: 1. Sequence one: There are two deduction criteria for stalling in Subject 3. One is a direct stall caused by improper operation, which deducts 10 points. The other is a stall caused by a mismatch between the gear and the vehicle speed (usually high gear and low speed), which manifests as a jerking sensation in the vehicle, and this type of stall is considered a failure. The first type of stall is caused by improper use of the clutch, usually lifting it too quickly. 2. Sequence two: The method of using the clutch: When pressing down, it must be pressed all the way to the bottom. During the lifting process, it should be two fast, two slow, and one pause. The total travel of the clutch when lifting is divided into five points (fast-slow-pause-slow-fast). The engagement point of the clutch varies for each vehicle. For beginners, the entire travel should be slower, gradually approaching the correct method of use. 3. Sequence three: During the process of lifting the clutch pedal when starting on a flat road in Subject 3, as soon as the car starts to move, the clutch has entered the engagement point area and must be paused. If lifted further, the vehicle will either jerk or stall. Wait until the car has moved forward more than 2 meters, then slowly lift the clutch pedal completely. This way, the vehicle will not stall when starting.
