Find a safe and permitted parking spot without obstructing other vehicles or pedestrians. Do not park randomly. After locating a safe and permitted parking spot, slowly drive the car into the parking position, then press the brake pedal. Once the car is completely stopped, shift to Neutral (N) gear. After shifting to Neutral (N) gear, engage the electronic parking brake, as this is crucial for parking safety. Once the electronic parking brake is engaged, press the engine stop button and shift to Park (P) gear. When the dashboard returns to the 0 position, remove the car key.

As a long-time owner of the BMW M4, my parking and shutdown procedure is straightforward. First, slow down to find a parking spot, come to a complete stop, and don't rush—keep the brake pedal pressed. Then, shift into P (Park), which is effortless with BMW's electronic gear lever—just a gentle push forward. Engage the electronic parking brake, and check that the red indicator light on the dashboard confirms it's locked. Next, ensure the air conditioning is turned off, and switch off the headlights to avoid draining the battery. Finally, press the start/stop button to shut off the engine, and the sound of the engine immediately stops. However, since the M4 is a high-performance car, I make it a habit to let it idle for 30 seconds before shutting down to allow the turbocharger to cool, protecting the engine. If parked on an incline, always firmly engage the parking brake to prevent the rear-wheel-drive car from rolling. The whole process takes just a few minutes, ensuring the car is safely parked before leaving.

Is the Parking Space Too Narrow Because the Steering Was Turned Too Early or Too Late?

Parking space being too narrow is due to turning the steering wheel too early. Here are the precautions for reverse parking: 1. Identify the starting point: Take right reverse parking as an example, the distance between the car at the starting position and the left line should be 1.2-1.8 meters, the steering wheel should be straight, and the car body should be parallel to the left line. When reversing, use the bottom edge of the left rearview mirror as a reference. When the two coincide, turn the steering wheel fully to the right and continue reversing. 2. Control the corner point: Look at the right rearview mirror. When the corner point of the parking space is found, pay attention to the change in distance between the corner point and the car body until the car body is parallel to the parking line, then turn the steering wheel back one and a half turns at once. 3. Align the stopping point: The stopping point is the parking point after entering the parking space. The reference method is the same as the starting point. When the bottom edge of the left mirror coincides with the shoulder line of the parking space, stop the car.

Will the Battery Drain if the Car Door Is Left Open Overnight?

Leaving the car door open can lead to battery drain. Prolonged periods will deplete the battery. When the car is not in use, it is necessary to turn off all electrical appliances inside the car, close the doors, and lock the central control. The operation of car doors and windows relies on the battery for power, so it is best to close all windows before turning off the engine, shut the doors after turning off the engine, and use the long-press lock button method to secure the doors after leaving the car. Relevant information about car batteries is as follows: 1. Introduction: A car battery, also known as a storage battery, is a type of battery that works by converting chemical energy into electrical energy. Typically, what people refer to as a battery is a lead-acid battery. That is, a battery mainly made of lead and its oxides, with a sulfuric acid solution as the electrolyte. 2. Working Principle: It uses lead plates filled with sponge-like lead as the negative electrode, lead plates filled with lead dioxide as the positive electrode, and 22-28% dilute sulfuric acid as the electrolyte. During charging, electrical energy is converted into chemical energy, and during discharging, chemical energy is converted back into electrical energy.

How to Deregister a Vehicle Sold as Scrap?

If a car is sold as scrap metal, it cannot be deregistered because the first step in deregistering a vehicle is to scrap it, and scrapping a vehicle requires an inspection. Below is an introduction to vehicle deregistration: 1. Upon reaching the scrap deadline: The vehicle owner must sell the vehicle to a recycling company before the scrap deadline. Within 7 days of dismantling the vehicle, the recycling company must submit the 'Application Form for Vehicle Suspension, Resumption/Deregistration,' the scrapped vehicle registration certificate, license plate, vehicle license, and a copy of the 'Scrapped Vehicle Recycling Certificate' to the traffic management department of the public security authority for deregistration. 2. Overdue: If the vehicle owner fails to complete the deregistration process on time, the traffic management department of the public security authority will announce the invalidation of the vehicle registration certificate, license plate, and vehicle license. 3. Lost: When deregistering the vehicle, if the license plate or vehicle license is lost, replacement procedures must be completed simultaneously. For other reasons preventing the return of the vehicle license plate or vehicle license, the vehicle management office will announce their invalidation.

What to Do If the Diesel Tank Is Leaking?

Diesel tank leakage repair methods are as follows: 1. Tank damage: If a tank leak is found, clean the leaking area and apply soap or chewing gum to temporarily block it. Using epoxy resin adhesive for repair yields better results. 2. Pipe rupture: When a fuel pipe ruptures, clean the ruptured area, apply soap, and wrap it with cloth strips or adhesive tape, then secure it tightly with wire, and finally apply another layer of soap. 3. Pipe breakage: If a fuel pipe breaks, find a rubber or plastic pipe with a similar diameter to sleeve it. If the sleeve is not tight enough, secure both ends with wire. 4. Pipe joint leakage: If the engine fuel pipe joint leaks, wrap cotton yarn around the lower edge of the "horn," then tighten the pipe nut and joint. 5. Sudden radiator leakage: You can use soap, rice, or 502 glue for repair. Specifically, soak the soap in water to soften it, knead it into a putty-like consistency, and press it into the leaking area of the radiator. Filling and pressing the cooling fins can temporarily stop the leak. For rice, knead it until soft and press it into the leaking area of the radiator.

What is the correct method for starting a car?

The correct method for starting a car is: 1. Insert the key and turn it to the ACC position, wait for 2 to 3 seconds to allow the main power relay contacts to stabilize and power the first set of components that need electricity; 2. Continue turning the key to the ON position, wait for 6 to 10 seconds for the fuel pump relay to engage, and after all sensors have adjusted their states, turn the key to START. Once the engine is running continuously, return the key to ON, allowing the onboard computer to automatically adjust to the optimal position and parameters. Vehicle Dynamic Tips: 1. Skipping the self-check process before ignition for a prolonged period can not only damage the battery and engine, disrupt electronic devices, but also pose many safety hazards; 2. The self-check process by the onboard computer typically takes 6 to 10 seconds. During this time, you can fasten your seatbelt and remind the front passenger to do the same, then proceed with ignition and start driving slowly.

What Causes Abnormal Colors in the Rearview Camera?

Abnormal colors in the rearview camera are caused by poor contact in the video signal line or damage to the camera. Here are the specific details about the rearview camera: 1. Function: The rearview camera is part of the parking assist system, which uses a rear-mounted camera to capture real-time footage of the area behind the vehicle and displays it on the central control screen. When parking, drivers can intuitively observe the actual conditions behind the vehicle through the screen, significantly improving parking safety. 2. Guidelines: The guidelines in the rearview camera can be divided into two types: simulated wheel trajectory lines and simulated distance marker lines. 3. Wheel Trajectory Lines: Wheel trajectory lines are usually represented by two vertical solid or dashed lines, indicating the simulated movement paths of the rear wheels. These lines also shift according to the steering wheel's rotation.
