2021 BMW 5 Series facelift includes three major aspects as follows: 1. Exterior: The redesigned bumper and headlight setup align more closely with BMW's current family design language. It features thinner headlight housings and dual L-shaped daytime running lights, while other elements remain less noticeable, such as larger front air intakes and mesh panels. 2. Components: At the rear, the taillights, bumper, and diffuser have undergone subtle adjustments. BMW states that the car's length has increased by 3 cm, contributing to a drag coefficient as low as 0.27 for the base 530i model. The mid-cycle facelift prominently enlarges the signature kidney grille. This rendering removes all camouflage layers, showcasing the 5 Series' latest front-end styling. 3. Powertrain: The updated look of this Bavarian premium model is complemented by new powertrains under the hood. The 2021 5 Series is expected to introduce the 545e plug-in hybrid variant, borrowing its hybrid engine from the larger 745e xDrive. In the luxury sedan, this setup combines a six-cylinder 3.0-liter turbocharged engine with an electric motor to produce 388 horsepower.

How to reset the tire pressure on BYD Tang?

Adjust the pressure of the underinflated tire to the standard value, then drive at a constant speed of 40km/h for about 10 minutes. The tire pressure monitoring system will re-match, and once the matching is successful, the tire pressure warning light will automatically turn off and reset. Below is an introduction to car tire pressure: 1. Tire pressure, strictly speaking, refers to the air pressure inside the tire. In car maintenance, the engine is the heart of the car, and damage to the engine can lead to the end of the car's life. Similarly, tire pressure is the blood pressure of the car, and the level of tire pressure plays a crucial role in the performance and power of the car. 2. Tire pressure is an indicator of the car's load capacity. The size of the car's load depends on the level of tire pressure. According to the relationship between the tire's load index, tire pressure, and load capacity, the higher the tire pressure, the greater the load capacity; the lower the pressure, the smaller the load capacity. Tire pressure is an important factor affecting the service life and economy of the tire. Improper selection of tire pressure can cause power cycling, which increases tire wear and affects service life. Considering the impact on performance, it is necessary to choose the appropriate tire pressure to extend the tire's service life and improve economy.

What does it mean when the ESP light comes on in an Audi A6?

Audi A6's ESP light coming on indicates that the Electronic Stability Program has started to intervene in the vehicle's driving control. Here's how the ESP works: 1. When the Audi A6 experiences understeer during a left turn (i.e., when the speed is too high to complete the turn smoothly), various ESP sensors will send information about the understeer to the computer. The computer then applies braking to the left rear wheel, generating a pulling force and torque to counteract the tendency of the front end to push outward. 2. During a left turn, if the rear wheels lose traction or the driver applies too much throttle in a rear-wheel-drive car causing oversteer, the ESP will brake the right front wheel while simultaneously reducing engine power output to correct the incorrect steering attitude. 3. When braking in a straight line on surfaces with uneven traction that causes the car to pull to one side, the ESP will reduce braking force on wheels with stronger traction, allowing the vehicle to follow the driver's intended path. Similarly, when braking while turning, the ESP will adjust braking force on specific wheels to ensure the vehicle moves according to the driver's intentions.

What does air conditioning sync mean?

sync refers to the synchronization button of a dual-zone automatic air conditioning system. Here is some introduction about sync: 1. The Chinese meaning of sync is "synchronization". Currently, synchronization technology is widely used in multimedia such as music and video, as well as the synchronization of text content. 2. The so-called dual-zone automatic air conditioning refers to a system with two temperature zones, meaning the left and right sides of the front row can independently adjust their temperatures. Vehicles equipped with dual-zone automatic air conditioning can meet the different temperature requirements of passengers in two different positions inside the car. The independent temperature zones allow for flexible adjustment and conversion between different temperature differences.
