BMW M4 wheel spin during acceleration may be caused by insufficient contact area between the car's tires and the road surface, leading to inadequate friction between the tires and the ground. When tire spin occurs, it is necessary to use the brakes appropriately during the driving process. Tire spin can be addressed in the following three situations: 1. Rear-wheel spin: When the rear part of the car spins, regardless of the direction of the spin, steer in the direction of the spin and remember not to brake. All actions should be as gentle as possible. 2. Four-wheel spin: The driver will feel the car accelerating more quickly than usual. In this case, first allow the front wheels to regain traction, release the throttle, avoid braking, gently press the clutch, and make all actions as gentle as possible. Let the car move slowly until the spin disappears. 3. Front-wheel spin: The steering wheel cannot be turned, and the car moves straight forward until it hits an obstacle. In this situation, remember to wait until the wheels start turning before turning the steering wheel until normal operation is restored. Repeatedly pressing the brake helps the fuel system reach its most effective working state.

How to reset the tire pressure warning light on a Land Cruiser?

First, adjust the pressure of all five tires (including the spare) to 2.4~2.5Mpa (do not exceed 2.5Mpa). Then, use the key to turn on the ignition without starting the engine. Next, press and hold the SET tire pressure reset button until the tire pressure monitoring light flashes three times. Finally, release the SET button and wait a few minutes before turning off the power to reset the tire pressure light. More detailed instructions are as follows: 1. If the tire pressure monitoring system warning light comes on while driving, stay calm and do not panic. Immediately reduce your speed, avoid sharp steering and sudden braking, and check the tires. 2. There is no need to panic when the tire pressure system alerts you, as even if it's not a false alarm, the tire won't immediately lose all pressure and become immobile. Most tire leaks are caused by slow punctures from nails. If everything seems normal, drive to a repair shop for inspection. If not, replace the tire with the spare and proceed to a repair shop or call for assistance. 3. Sometimes the tire pressure monitoring light comes on due to overinflation, which can be resolved by adjusting the tire pressure. 4. Both underinflation and overinflation can trigger the tire pressure light. You can slowly drive to an auto repair or detailing shop to adjust the tire pressure. If you have your own inflation device, you can adjust it yourself. 5. While inflating or deflating the tires, observe the tire pressure light on the dashboard. Stop inflating once the light turns off. If overinflated, release the excess air.

Which is More Premium: Oshan or Changan?

Oshan and Changan belong to the same company and cannot be compared. Here is some information about Oshan and Changan: 1. Oshan is a Chinese automobile brand under the Changan Automobile Group. Headquartered in Chongqing, unlike Changan, Oshan focuses on the passenger vehicle segment and is dedicated to providing high-quality vehicles for Chinese "big families." 2. Oshan's three major components are independently developed by the Changan Group, among which Changan's Blue Whale engine is known for its strong power and excellent fuel efficiency, winning the "China Heart" Top 10 Engines award. The Blue Whale engine is built using a modular technology platform, a first among domestic brands. The NVH performance of the Blue Whale series engines is particularly outstanding, with NVH levels as low as 37 decibels in models equipped with Blue Whale series engines, making them as quiet as a library.

How to Check if ETC is Activated?

Methods to check if ETC activation is successful: View through the ETC Assistant mini-program, which will prompt "Activation Successful" upon success; Alternatively, remove and reinsert the card into the device—if it displays "card" or "prepaid card" for a debit card, or shows the balance for a stored-value card, it indicates the ETC is activated. How ETC Works: Via dedicated short-range communication between the onboard electronic tag installed on the vehicle's windshield and the microwave antenna in the ETC lane at toll stations, the system uses computer networking technology to process backend settlements with banks. This enables vehicles to pass through highway or bridge toll stations without stopping while automatically deducting the toll fees. ETC Installation Positions: For small vehicles like cars and vans, the OBU device is installed on the upper-middle part of the front windshield. For large vehicles like trucks and buses, it is installed on the lower-middle section. ETC Installation Requirements: Height must be no lower than 1.2 meters and no higher than 2.5 meters; The installation angle N should be between 30º and 90º (the angle between the electronic tag surface and the horizontal plane).

Will the car battery run out of power if the sedan is parked for a long time?

After being parked for a long time, the sedan's battery will run out of power. Many people think that after turning off the ignition, the car is in a power-off state, but in fact, many devices are still operating. When the car has insufficient power and cannot start, don't panic. You can find a nearby repair shop to get a battery jump-start cable or call for car rescue. Additional information is as follows: 1. Using in-car equipment for a long time after turning off the engine. Many car owners have similar habits regarding this. They tend to stay in the car for a while after parking, especially when returning home at night, listening to CDs, the radio, or doing other things. 2. After turning off the engine, the electrical equipment in the car does not shut down. The generator is not generating electricity, but the car battery continues to supply power. 3. The car battery itself has a rated capacity for stored electrical energy. Keeping electrical equipment on for a long time is an overdraft of the car battery's power. Over time, this leads to insufficient battery power. Additionally, cold starts require a relatively large amount of ignition energy, making it easy to cause starting difficulties.

When Should the Car Air Filter Be Replaced?

Under normal circumstances, it should be replaced approximately every 10,000 kilometers or once a year. It is recommended to clean the air conditioning filter. The car air conditioning filter should be replaced under the following two conditions: 1. After cleaning or tidying up the car, if there is still a persistent odor or the air inside the car is not fresh, you should consider replacing the air conditioning filter. 2. If the car has traveled 20,000 kilometers, it is best to replace the air conditioning filter. If the local air environment is poor, with frequent sandstorms and smog, it can be replaced as early as 10,000 kilometers. Generally speaking, the air conditioning filter should be replaced every 7,000-10,000 kilometers. If the local air environment is very harsh, it is recommended to replace it as soon as possible.

What are the differences between the Mercedes-Benz G500 and G63?

The differences between the Mercedes-Benz G63 and G500 are as follows: 1. First, their prices differ significantly. Currently, in the parallel import car market, the Mercedes-Benz G63 is more expensive than the G500. 2. The Mercedes-Benz G500 is the standard version of the Mercedes-Benz G-Class, while the G63 is the AMG version modified by the Mercedes-AMG division. In terms of appearance, the G63 features AMG body kits, with a larger and more aggressive front lower grille that delivers a strong visual impact. The grille also adopts a single chrome strip design, simple yet bold. The wheels are larger AMG sport rims compared to the G500. Overall, the G63 looks more sporty and domineering, exuding a strong off-road vibe. The interior design of the G500 and G63 is almost identical, but the G63 uses more refined materials and pays more attention to detail. Naturally, the G63's craftsmanship and attention to detail are more meticulous. 3. The biggest factor contributing to the price difference is the engine. The Mercedes-Benz G500 is equipped with a 4.0T twin-turbocharged engine, delivering a maximum of 421 horsepower and a peak torque of 610N.m, paired with a 7AT transmission. In contrast, the G63 features a professionally tuned AMG 5.5T twin-turbo engine, producing a maximum of 571 horsepower and a peak torque of 760N.m, also matched with a 7AT transmission. This makes the G63 more powerful in terms of performance and off-road capability.
