The facelifted 5 Series has eliminated LED fog lights across the entire lineup but now comes standard with tire pressure monitoring. The BMW 5 Series is a product of the German automaker BMW, positioned as a mid-size sedan with a stylish exterior, making it highly popular among young professionals and securing a notable share in the domestic mid-to-high-end car market. Below are the relevant details: 1. Specific changes in the facelifted model: The facelifted 5 Series has removed LED fog lights across all variants but includes tire pressure monitoring as standard. The imported 530i/540i M Sport package models and the three domestic 530Li M Sport package models have all been updated with new 19-inch multi-spoke alloy wheels, offering outstanding texture and sporty appeal. The domestic 530Li Luxury package model now features new 18-inch multi-spoke silver alloy wheels. Additionally, the domestic 530Le model has removed the carpet floor mats but added an optional Winter Package. 2. Powertrain configuration: The facelifted models retain the same powertrain setup. The 525i/Li and 530i/Li are equipped with low/high-power tuned 2.0T turbocharged engines, delivering maximum power outputs of 135kW (184PS) and 185kW (252PS), with peak torques of 290N·m and 350N·m, respectively.

What Octane Gasoline Should Be Used for a Compression Ratio of 9.8?

If it is a naturally aspirated engine, a compression ratio of 9.8 is relatively low, and 92 octane gasoline can be used. Some turbocharged engines also have a relatively low compression ratio, but the temperature and pressure inside the cylinders of turbocharged engines are higher during operation, making them very prone to knocking. Therefore, these turbocharged engines require the use of 95 octane gasoline. Additional Information: Knocking Concept: Knocking is an abnormal combustion phenomenon in the engine. During the compression stroke of the engine, the piston moves upward to compress the combustible mixture. At this time, due to the high temperature and pressure, the combustible mixture ignites spontaneously. The burning combustible mixture pushes the piston downward, while the piston is still moving upward, which can cause damage to the engine and reduce power while increasing fuel consumption. To avoid knocking, higher octane gasoline should be used, as this type of gasoline has a higher octane number and better stability.

Can I still apply for compulsory traffic insurance after it expires?

It is still possible to apply for compulsory traffic insurance after it expires, but if a car that has not been involved in any accidents for several years renews its insurance after a lapse, the premium rate may increase to some extent. Below is relevant information about compulsory traffic insurance: 1. Mandatory insurance requirement: Compulsory traffic insurance is a must-have insurance, and driving without it is illegal. The full name of compulsory traffic insurance is 'Compulsory Motor Vehicle Traffic Accident Liability Insurance.'

What are the symptoms of a transmission mechatronic unit failure?

Some vehicles are equipped with transmission mechatronic unit upper housings produced by specific suppliers during a certain period, where the threads securing the accumulator may crack during use, leading to a drop in oil pressure. In some cases, this can cause the clutch to disengage, resulting in a loss of driving force and posing a safety hazard. Once this issue occurs, it indicates that the vehicle should not be driven further, as the transmission mechatronic unit failure is a quality-related problem. Additional information: Vehicle dimensions: The body length is 4589 mm, the body width is 1860 mm, the body height is 1660 mm, and the wheelbase is 2731 mm.

Will You Definitely Be Caught If Not Following the Guide?

Not following the guide lane does not necessarily mean you will be caught, but at intersections with traffic lights or places equipped with cameras, the probability of being photographed for not following the guide lane is high. In areas without cameras, the chance of being caught is minimal unless encountered by traffic police during patrols, where you may be issued a ticket on the spot. 1. Penalties for not following the guide lane: Depending on the situation, traffic police may impose different penalties, generally involving fines and deduction of 2 to 3 points. For example: If you not only fail to follow the guide lane but also run a red light, committing two violations, you may be deducted 6 points. 2. Additional information: To avoid penalties for not following the guide lane: Do not cross the solid line when passing through traffic light intersections, ensure your vehicle stays within the lane, as crossing the line at intersections is easily captured by electronic eyes. Pay attention to signs when driving on ramps and follow the regulations.
