2The maintenance items required at 20,000 kilometers include the air filter, fuel filter, cabin air filter, and, depending on the vehicle's condition and environment, a carbon deposit cleaning service. BMW First Maintenance: Some manufacturers determine the first maintenance based on time or mileage. The exact timing for the first maintenance should be referred to in the vehicle's user manual or warranty manual. The first maintenance is very important and is free, so it's essential to remember to do it to avoid missing it and affecting the vehicle's third maintenance. BMW Maintenance Items: Maintenance items for a car primarily include replacing engine oil, oil filter, transmission fluid, spark plugs, cabin air filter, air filter, brake fluid, etc. However, not all these items need to be replaced at every maintenance service; it depends on their service life. Additionally, maintenance involves the inspection and upkeep of dozens of items across multiple systems such as the engine, transmission, air conditioning system, steering system, braking system, suspension, body, and tires.

Should the front and rear tire pressures of a car be the same?

Car front and rear tire pressures should be the same, but a tolerance of 0.1 bar is allowed. Taking a typical family car as an example, the standard tire pressure for the front wheels is usually 2.3 bar when carrying two passengers, and the rear wheels also have a standard tire pressure of 2.3 bar. When the load increases, the tire pressure can be appropriately increased. The front tire pressure can be adjusted to 2.4 bar, and the rear tire pressure can be adjusted to 2.6 bar. Tire pressure refers to the air pressure inside the tire, which is the 'blood pressure' of the car. The level of tire pressure plays a crucial role in the performance and power of the vehicle. Air pressure is the lifeline of the tire; both too high and too low will shorten the tire's service life.

What Causes a Diesel Vehicle to Emit Black Smoke and Lose Power?

Diesel vehicle emitting black smoke and losing power is caused by: 1. Rapid acceleration while driving (usually above 2000 RPM); 2. Cold engine start; 3. Idling (especially noticeable above 2500 RPM); 4. High-altitude effects (commonly seen above 4000 meters altitude). The black smoke emitted by diesel vehicles mainly consists of carbon black particles, which are classified as particulate emissions. Under normal vehicle conditions, this primarily occurs during rapid acceleration and high-idle RPM situations. Solutions for diesel vehicles emitting black smoke: 1. Replace the air filter; 2. Replace the solenoid valve (including the turbocharger's solenoid valve); 3. Replace the fuel filter; 4. Clean the fuel system; 5. Replace damaged components; 6. Add diesel fuel additives.

What problems can an oxygen sensor failure cause?

Problems caused by oxygen sensor failure include: reduced vehicle power, difficulty in acceleration, unstable idle speed during operation, increased fuel consumption, excessive vehicle pollutant emissions, spark plug failure, and fuel supply system failure. When the oxygen sensor fails, the ECU cannot obtain information about the oxygen concentration in the exhaust pipe, and thus cannot provide feedback control on the mixture concentration. In engines equipped with a three-way catalytic converter to reduce exhaust pollution, the oxygen sensor is an essential component. Since the purification ability of the three-way catalyst for CO, HC, and NOx drops sharply once the air-fuel ratio of the mixture deviates from the theoretical air-fuel ratio, an oxygen sensor is installed in the exhaust pipe to detect the oxygen concentration in the exhaust and send a feedback signal to the ECU. The ECU then adjusts the fuel injection volume of the injector to keep the air-fuel ratio of the mixture near the theoretical value.

What to do if the dashboard lights of Nissan Tiida are broken?

Solutions for broken dashboard lights of Nissan Tiida: First, check whether the fuse is blown. If it is blown, replacing the fuse can solve the problem. If some LED beads are damaged, replacing the corresponding damaged beads will suffice. Dashboard lights are functional lamps used to indicate vehicle performance, which are divided into three categories: general indicator lights, warning indicator lights, and malfunction indicator lights. The Nissan Tiida is a compact car launched by Dongfeng Nissan, with a length, width, and height of 4393mm, 1766mm, and 1539mm respectively, a wheelbase of 2700mm, equipped with a 1.6L naturally aspirated engine, a maximum power of 90kw, and matched with a CVT continuously variable transmission or a 5-speed manual transmission.

What is the principle of a dual-clutch transmission in cars?

The principle of a dual-clutch transmission in cars is: A dual-clutch transmission has two clutches, one responsible for the odd-numbered gears (1st, 3rd, 5th, 7th), and the other clutch responsible for the even-numbered gears (2nd, 4th, 6th). It combines the functions of two manual transmissions into a single system, without a torque converter or planetary gear sets. The advantages of a dual-clutch transmission include: 1. Fast gear shifting: The gear shifting time of a dual-clutch transmission is very short; 2. Fuel efficiency: Because it eliminates torque interruption, meaning the engine's power is continuously utilized and always operates at optimal conditions, it can significantly save fuel; 3. Comfort: Due to the fast shifting speed, each gear shift in a DCT is very smooth; 4. There is almost no torque loss during the gear shifting process.
