BMW EPS communication failure may have the following reasons: Dirty throttle body: When accelerating, you may feel the throttle sticking, heavy, and the car accelerating slowly. When pressing the throttle at idle, the RPM rises slowly with a dull response. When releasing the throttle while driving, the car's speed drops immediately. It can also directly affect the precision and smoothness of engine air intake. Damaged throttle electronic control unit: This is a mechanical failure. The resistor part of the potentiometer is made by spraying a carbon film on a polyester substrate, which is actually a low-level manufacturing process with poor wear resistance. Sensor malfunction: The sensor may suddenly fail during measurement, showing a constant value. When this fault occurs, it can cause a series of unpredictable problems, making the control system unable to function properly for a long time.

Is the 2019 Bora equipped with a full-size spare tire?

The Bora is equipped with a non-full-size spare tire, which cannot be used as a long-term replacement. A non-full-size spare tire means the tread width is different, typically narrower than the four main tires. For example, if the normal tire width is 205, the non-full-size spare tire's width is approximately 100-120. However, the overall diameter of the spare tire is the same as a full-size tire, meaning the height is identical. Notes for installing the spare tire: 1. Before installing the spare tire, it is best to place the removed tire under the vehicle to prevent accidents. 2. Ensure all the tire fixing bolts are tightened before removing the jack. 3. When tightening the bolts, follow a diagonal sequence, not clockwise or counterclockwise one by one.

How to Adjust the Car Steering Wheel Properly?

Here are the proper methods for adjusting a car steering wheel: 1. Steering wheel height adjustment: Generally, the top edge of the steering wheel should be at a height similar to the driver's shoulders. Of course, this can also be achieved by adjusting the seat height. 2. Steering wheel horizontal adjustment: It is necessary to maintain comfortable legroom while ensuring a comfortable distance between the driver and the steering wheel. The main components affecting driving posture include the steering wheel, seat, pedals, etc., among which the adjustability of the steering wheel is particularly important for posture adjustment. 3. If the steering wheel can be adjusted flexibly, it allows for smooth operation, which undoubtedly enhances driving safety.

What is the new style of motor vehicle license plates?

Here is an introduction to the new style of motor vehicle license plates: 1. New license plates: The new plates feature blue, yellow, and red separators. The left side displays two characters representing information like "Yue A," while the right side has been expanded from five digits to six digits, similar to current new energy vehicle plates. 2. Small vehicle license plates: There are two different design schemes. One consists of multiple horizontal gradient lines in a blue gradient style. 3. White background with black characters: Another new plate design features a white background with black characters, but the bottom of the plate has a dark blue base. This new plate still offers blue, yellow, and red separators, but the separator is positioned above the second digit, and the forms on either side of the separator are significantly different.

What is the reason for no acceleration when the air conditioner is turned on?

The reasons for no acceleration when the air conditioner is turned on are as follows: 1. Insufficient fuel supply: The relative increase in fuel vapor leads to a relative decrease in internal fuel pressure in the fuel system, and clogged fuel filters result in severely inadequate fuel supply. 2. Component blockage: If components such as the air filter or throttle valve are clogged or malfunctioning, causing insufficient air intake, this will also lead to weak acceleration and slow speed increase in the vehicle. 3. Exhaust system failure: Exhaust system failure mainly refers to poor exhaust flow, usually caused by a broken catalytic converter. A clogged exhaust pipe will result in a decrease in engine power.

What Causes the Exclamation Mark on the Car Dashboard?

When an exclamation mark appears on the car dashboard, there are five possible scenarios: general faults, automatic transmission faults, braking system faults, abnormal tire pressure, and lighting faults. Below is a detailed analysis of these five situations: General Faults: A triangle with an exclamation mark inside indicates that there is a fault with the car's general performance, components, or functions. Common issues include parking sensor failure, fuel cutoff system intervention or malfunction, external light failure, engine oil pressure sensor failure, etc. It is necessary to visit a 4S shop for inspection to identify the source of the fault. Automatic Transmission Faults: A yellow gear with an exclamation mark inside is the automatic transmission fault warning light, indicating that there is a problem with the transmission or the transmission fluid is below the normal range. The transmission fluid should be replaced promptly. Braking System Faults: A circle with parentheses and an exclamation mark in the middle represents a braking system warning, mainly indicating a fault in the braking system or low brake fluid level. Immediate inspection of the braking system is required to avoid accidents. Abnormal Tire Pressure: A horizontal line with parentheses and an exclamation mark below represents the tire pressure monitoring warning light. This light will illuminate when the tire pressure is too low. Check the tire pressure and restore it to the normal range. Lighting Faults: A yellow bulb with an exclamation mark is the lighting fault indicator, signaling that there is a problem with the car's lights. Solution: Visit a 4S shop for inspection as soon as possible, or conduct a self-check focusing on commonly used bulbs such as turn signals, fog lights, and interior lights to identify the issue.

How Many Horsepower is a 75 kW Diesel Engine?

According to the conversion of 1 kilowatt (kW) = 1.3596216 metric horsepower (ps), a 75 kW diesel engine equals 101.97 horsepower. Here is some additional information: 1. Diesel Engine: A diesel engine is an internal combustion engine that uses diesel as fuel. It belongs to the category of compression-ignition engines and is often referred to as a Diesel engine after its main inventor, Rudolf Diesel. 2. Working Principle: During operation, the diesel engine draws air into the cylinder, which is highly compressed by the movement of the piston, reaching temperatures of 500-700°C. Then, fuel is injected in a fine spray into the high-temperature air, mixing with it to form a combustible mixture that ignites spontaneously. The energy released during combustion acts on the piston crown, pushing the piston and converting the motion into rotational mechanical work via the connecting rod and crankshaft.
