The most significant change between the 2017 and 2018 BMW X3 models is the elimination of the older model's "open-eye" headlight design. The area of the double-kidney grille has been substantially increased, which helps improve the air intake for the engine compartment and facilitates heat dissipation. Exterior differences: The 2018 BMW X3 completely abandoned the angular details and distinct contour lines of the older model, adopting a more rounded and streamlined appearance. Additionally, the body dimensions have been significantly enhanced compared to the older model, with a 2810mm wheelbase that offers a competitive advantage among its peers. Interior differences: The 2018 BMW X3 continues the latest design language of BMW M models, featuring a fully digital instrument cluster that exudes a high-tech feel, along with a newly designed electronic gear shifter equipped with M1/M2 button knobs.

What is the size of the Corolla wiper blades?

Corolla wiper blades come in a set of 26 inches (65CM) + 14 inches (35CM). Below is relevant information about wiper blades: 1. Power source: The wiper blades are powered by an electric motor, which serves as the core of the entire wiper system. The quality requirements for the motor are quite high. It uses a DC permanent magnet motor, and the wiper motor installed on the front windshield is typically integrated with the worm gear mechanical part. The worm gear mechanism functions to reduce speed and increase torque, with its output shaft driving a four-bar linkage that converts continuous rotational motion into a left-right oscillating movement. 2. Operation method: The wiper motor adopts a 3-brush structure to facilitate speed variation. The intermittent timing is controlled by a relay, utilizing the motor's return switch contacts and the relay's RC charging-discharging function to enable the wiper blades to sweep at regular intervals. The wiper blade rubber is the tool that directly removes rainwater and dirt from the glass.

What is the normal tire pressure range for the Haval H6?

The normal tire pressure range for the Haval H6 is 2.4-2.5bar. According to the international GBT2978-2008 standard requirements, the tire pressure for different tires is as follows: Standard tires: 2.4-2.5bar; Reinforced tires: 2.8-2.9bar; Maximum pressure: Should not exceed 3.5bar. In summer, the tire pressure should generally follow the lower limit of the standard tire pressure. For example, the lower limit for standard tires is 2.4bar. If the car is often parked outdoors, the tire pressure can generally be about 0.1bar lower than the standard to avoid tire blowouts due to high temperatures. In winter, the tire pressure should follow the standard tire pressure principle, with an appropriate increase of about 0.2bar. Low tire pressure increases the movement of various parts of the tire, causing excessive rolling and abnormal heating. It also reduces the function of the cords and rubber, leading to delamination or cord breakage, and excessive friction between the tire and the rim, causing damage to the bead area and abnormal wear. High tire pressure accelerates the wear of the tread center pattern, reducing tire lifespan. It also increases vehicle vibration, indirectly affecting the lifespan of other components.

What does 4S in automobiles refer to?

4S stores, fully known as Automobile Sales Service 4S Stores (Automobile-Sales-Servicshop4S), represent a comprehensive automobile sales enterprise integrating four key functions: Sale (vehicle sales), Sparepart (parts), Service (after-sales service), and Survey (information feedback). Here is additional information: 1. Vehicle Sales (Sale): The first and most primary function is vehicle sales, which is also the most common. After all, the fundamental purpose of any business is profitability, making vehicle sales the most basic and essential function. 2. Spare Parts (Sparepart): Alongside vehicle sales, spare parts are indispensable. It's important to note that automotive parts can wear out or break. Having access to such a store is highly convenient when replacements are needed. Moreover, 4S stores are also a great option for vehicle modifications, not just for part replacements. 3. After-Sales Service (Service): A place that sells automobiles naturally includes after-sales service. In today's society, after-sales service is a critical component of customer satisfaction. 4. Information Feedback (Survey): In the modern marketplace, communication between buyers and sellers is equally important.

How many points will be deducted for driving while calling and not wearing a seat belt?

Drivers who fail to use seat belts as required will be fined 50 yuan. Making or answering handheld phone calls while driving will result in a deduction of 2 points and a fine of 50 yuan. The purpose of wearing a seat belt is to ensure driving safety, and the method of wearing it must not be wrong. If the seat belt passes under the armpit and does not restrain the shoulder position, the body will still tilt forward or backward due to inertia in the event of a traffic accident, failing to provide any protection. The shoulder belt should be fastened across the hips and chest, pulled over the shoulder, and positioned horizontally over the pelvis and ribcage, forming a horizontally placed V-shape. Driving while calling can distract the driver, reduce their ability to respond, increase the risk of traffic accidents by four times compared to normal conditions, and also affect the traffic efficiency of vehicles, exacerbating road congestion. To further prevent and reduce traffic accidents and enhance the traffic safety awareness of drivers and passengers, according to the "Road Traffic Safety Law of the People's Republic of China" and other relevant regulations, electronic monitoring will be used to capture traffic violations such as "answering or making handheld phone calls" and "failing to use seat belts as required" while driving, and penalties will be imposed on the drivers in accordance with the law.

How many points are deducted for making phone calls while driving?

According to the "Measures for the Administration of Scoring for Road Traffic Safety Violations" officially implemented from April 1, 2022, drivers who engage in behaviors that hinder safe driving, such as making or answering handheld phone calls while driving, will be deducted 3 points and fined. Behaviors that constitute violations of safe driving due to making or answering handheld phone calls include using a handheld method to make or answer calls, or using handheld electronic devices such as mobile phones to send or receive text messages or WeChat messages by viewing the screen or operating the device, watching TikTok, Kuaishou, Weibo, and other apps, or playing games. Even if a phone holder is used to fix the mobile phone or other electronic devices, performing actions such as sending or receiving text messages or WeChat messages, watching videos, browsing app pages, or playing games by viewing the screen or operating the device is similarly dangerous as doing so with handheld devices, as it diverts the driver's attention to the screen. Therefore, these actions are also considered violations. However, if a driver uses a hands-free car phone, mobile phone headset, or speakerphone function for calls without affecting safety, it is not considered a violation of making or answering handheld phone calls. Although using Bluetooth and similar technologies is not treated as a violation, such behavior is not encouraged, as it can still distract the driver and affect safe driving.

How to Use the Manual Mode in a Tiptronic Transmission?

Usage of the manual mode in a tiptronic transmission: Switching to M mode, which stands for manual mode, primarily involves shifting gears by moving the gear lever, using the paddle shifters on the steering wheel, or pressing the gear shift buttons. Once mastered, this operation not only greatly enhances driving convenience and experience but also reduces vehicle wear. When climbing long, steep slopes, you can switch to manual mode and engage first gear. This keeps the vehicle in a lower gear, preventing frequent gear shifts, thereby ensuring stronger climbing power and protecting the transmission.
