BMW M3 and BMW M4 mainly differ in the following aspects: 1. Body structure: The BMW M3 features a 4-door, 5-seater sedan structure, while the M4 adopts a 2-door, 4-seater coupe structure. 2. Suspension system: The M3 is equipped with a multi-link independent rear suspension, whereas the M4 utilizes a five-link independent suspension. The M4 has a lower body height, resulting in a lower drag coefficient, faster acceleration performance, and a more coupe-like appearance. 3. Rear seats: The M4's rear seats support complete folding, while the M3 only allows proportional folding.

I think the biggest differences between the BMW M3 and M4 lie in the body type and practicality. The M3 is a four-door sedan, with a design more inclined towards daily driving convenience. It features independent rear doors for easy access and a larger trunk space, making it suitable for long trips with family or luggage. In contrast, the M4 is a two-door coupe with a more aggressive and dynamic appearance, featuring sleeker roof lines. However, this design results in cramped rear seating, requiring the front seats to be folded for entry and exit, which isn’t very family-friendly for those who frequently use the rear seats. Both cars are powered by the S58 3.0-liter inline-six twin-turbo engine, delivering similar horsepower, but the M4’s lower center of gravity and lighter weight make it more agile, especially in corners, offering a more engaging driving experience. Essentially, if you want a balance between family use and performance, the M3 is the better value; for pure driving pleasure, the M4 is the choice, though keep in mind that insurance and maintenance costs might be slightly higher. The latest generation also updated the grille design, making the M4 more eye-catching and improving its visual appeal and recognition.

Can a mortgaged car with a settlement certificate be purchased?

A mortgaged car with a settlement certificate can be purchased because the settlement certificate indicates that the vehicle does not owe any money to anyone, and the debt relationship is relatively simple, thereby reducing some risks. With the car in hand, the owner becomes the first creditor. According to some provisions of the Property Law, the owner will legally possess the vehicle. Settlement certificate: It refers to the written document provided by the lending bank after the owner has repaid the bank loan, proving that the borrower has completed the repayment of the loan. Related information: The "Loan Settlement Certificate" is required to go through the release procedures with relevant authorities (if a mortgage registration has been processed). Having a settlement certificate means that the loan for this car has been fully repaid, and the bank has issued the settlement certificate. There may be other reasons why the mortgage has not been released temporarily. If the original owner does not come forward, the mortgage cannot be lifted, which is the case for a mortgaged car with a settlement certificate.

Why does the Tiguan sunroof fail to close when tilted upwards?

Tiguan sunroof failing to close when tilted upwards is usually caused by foreign objects in the sunroof guide rails or a malfunction of the sunroof motor. If there are obstructions in the sliding rails or insufficient lubrication, excessive resistance may prevent proper closure. First, check the sliding rails: When lubrication is insufficient and resistance is too high, the sunroof's automatic anti-pinch feature will activate, manifesting as failure to close. The main maintenance for sunroofs involves lubricating the sliding rails. Lack of lubrication over time can lead to abnormal noises, poor movement, incomplete sealing, or even jamming and displacement, potentially burning out the motor. Check the electrical system: Inspect whether the electric sunroof's fuse has blown. If the fuse is intact, examine whether the sunroof switch is damaged. Press the switch to check if power is being supplied. If power is present, then verify whether the sunroof's drive motor is functioning by listening for any operational sounds. Additionally, failure to close tightly may be due to obstructions, deformations, rust, or poor lubrication in the sunroof's sliding channels.

How Much Water in the Passenger Compartment is Considered Severe?

Water reaching the vehicle's floor area is considered severe. Once water enters the interior of a motor vehicle, it can cause various issues. The wiring harnesses of motor vehicles are all fixed on the floor, and water ingress can lead to dampness of the floor, affecting the functionality of the wiring harnesses. In severe cases, it may even cause rotting. More extended information is as follows:1. Precautions: When repairing a water-damaged motor vehicle, it is essential to clearly identify the areas that need repair and have a thorough understanding before driving the vehicle. Although a water-damaged vehicle can be driven normally after repairs, there are still many uncertain factors that may prevent the vehicle from functioning properly and cause malfunctions during operation.2. Others: Water-damaged motor vehicles do not affect the transfer of ownership. All necessary procedures can be completed at the vehicle management office. Water-damaged motor vehicles only have issues with the quality of the car and do not affect the vehicle's documentation. There is no problem with completing the transfer of ownership procedures. Vehicles that cannot be transferred should not be purchased.

What to Do About Loud Exhaust Pipe Noise?

Loud exhaust pipe noise is caused by the aging of the gasket at the connection between the exhaust pipe and the engine. Use a wrench to remove the screws at the connection between the exhaust pipe and the engine. After loosening the screws, separate the exhaust pipe from the engine and place a new gasket on the exhaust pipe. Tighten the screws with a wrench, and the exhaust pipe noise will be reduced. Below are the specific reasons for loud exhaust pipe noise: 1. Blockage: If the exhaust pipe emits strange noises, it indicates that there must be debris inside, such as small animals like mice or kittens. This is very bad for the car engine because the gases expelled by the engine must pass through the exhaust pipe. If the exhaust pipe is blocked, the gases will flow back into the engine, causing high-temperature damage. 2. Muffler rust: The exhaust pipe is located between the muffler and the engine. If the exhaust pipe gets water inside or rusts, it can also cause the muffler to rust. This will increase the car's noise, making passengers feel that the car's sound is particularly loud, resulting in a very poor experience.

Is the front windshield film applied on the inside or outside of the car?

Front windshield films are always applied on the inside. If applied on the outside, exposure to wind and rain would reduce the lifespan by at least two-thirds. Additionally, if applied externally, shattered glass fragments from impacts could injure people, failing to serve the purpose of explosion-proof film. Below are specific details about car window films: 1. Introduction: Car window films involve applying a thin layer of material (also called solar film or heat-insulating film) to the front and rear windshields, side windows, and sunroof of a vehicle. 2. Functions: They primarily block ultraviolet rays, reduce heat transmission, prevent injuries from glass shards, and minimize glare. The one-way visibility feature also helps protect personal privacy. Moreover, these films can shield interior items and occupants from UV damage, reflect sunlight to lower cabin temperature, reduce air conditioning usage, thereby improving fuel efficiency and saving costs.
